ing the recent decision of the Post

tinue to exact double the unpaid rates

"N overy one to whom such let.

Singular Detection of Left. handed llur
dcrcr,

A few days ago an old hermit, re-
siding at Solon, in this county, was
found murdered in bis cabin. The
decd had evidently been done several
days before: but was shrouded
in mystery. Officers, however, sent
to investigate, concluded from some
curious circumstances that the muro
derer was left-handed person, and
this belief led to the arrest of the
only lcft-handed person in tho vicini-
ty, Albert W. Chamberlain, age 10, a
member Of one of the most widely
respected families in the county. The
young man had always borne an ex.
ccllcnt reputation, and the evidence
against him was purely circumstantial
but it proved correct, for yesterday
he made full confession of his guilt.
The murderer, according to his con-
fession, was committed on the night
of January 8. lie fired in at the
window, and shot the old man dead as
he was sitting before his fire. The
victim fell upon the live cmbers,
which partially consumed his body.
Chamberlain did not enter the house
till the following day, when he took
seVcnty-two dollars in money from
the pocket Of the dead man. 1t is ono
of the strangest crimes ever com nit
ted in this part of the State, and has
caused much cxcitement.--C Cierelana

Singular Weather Phenomenon.

at the latter place was forty-nvo &c.
grees below zero, while at Milwaukee e
it was eighty degrees above. The
difference was due to two distinct cur.
rents of air, that at Milwaukee being
from the northeast, brisk, with a
lively storm of snow, while at Sparta
and further west the wind was from
the northwest, with clear sky. The
change in the temperature at NIilwau.

Some months ago an Episcopalian
clergyman who intended to pass the
Sabbath in one Of the out .of.the way
districts Of South Carolina, gave
notice that lie would hold divine ser.
vice in a dilapidated hall that had
been unused since the breaking out Of
the civil war. The inhabitants of
this unfrequented place were mostly
negroes, and at the appointed hour
they filled the hall to ,>veriiowing.
On tho ehtrance Of the cmrgylDan,
clothed in the sacred ycstments Of the
church, an old darkey, sitting beside
the door, espied him, and mistaking
his calling sung out "Ku Klux,"
when the entire congregation tum-
bled cvcry>which-way out Of the win
dows and through the back door,
making for the woods as fast as their
legs could carry thom. One old daY-
key woman fell hcadlong iAto an un-

pie of colorcd deScons after a good

A Forgery.

Mr. 81. Cohen, of Sumter, informs
the Wilmington Star that he was
made the victim Of II forgery q fow
day since. The circumstances as de
tailed by Mr.. G., are follows "a
man about twenty years of age,
smooth skin, Of rather Aorid complex
ion stout, and measuring five feet five
! inches in height, dark hair, with his
| right arm off below the elbow, brought
down s,mples Of two bales Of cotton,
vouchsd for by Mr.. Bud1in, Rail
Road Agent at Lyncbburg, s. G.,
which bought, paying him SlS3 .73,
lcss 5 1t which he received in trade,
for which he signed his name Samuel
Williams. It turned out, on seeing
Mr.. Buddin, that no such person
owned cotton Mt his depot, that he
gave no such receipts, and that the
person answering to tho description
given bears the name of w. G. Carr"
The Star adds: "The individual
allud ed to is said to belong some where
in this State. lie received the money
tor the cotton on Saturday evening
last, and on tho same night took the
train for this city. In what part of
this State he belongs is not known,
but it is hoped our State exchanges
will give such publicity to the facts
as may eventually lead to his deteo-
tion and arrest.''

pointing Legislature of his own :;
to Arkansas, where Federal troops
possess tho polls; to Kansas, where

another takes $4,000 interest in a
