The swamp at the causcway bridge
was ga boomin" on Saturday evening,
and an old colored man, with an OK and
cart tried to ford the waters. He had
reached Il depth which made his bovine
steed uncertain rs to whether he should
walk or swim, when four mule team
came OH behind urged by colored Jchu,
(who full Of whiskey, like Caesar, was not
afraid of water) and dashed on. One of
the wheels Of the big team, encountered
the OK cart, and in a twinkling things
wore generally upside down, OK, cart,
and old man, also supply of groceries.
The wagon passed on, leaving the old
man to fish up his stock iii trade, and to
set his GENUS Dos, on his feet. A horse
man happened that way, whom the ship
wrecked man implored to "git down and
len q hand" 'Too deep, uncle, too

DREADFUL. Acc1DENT.

A tornado struck the freight depot of
the North Eastern Railroad in Charles
ton on Tuesday afternoon, completely
throwing down the entire structure,
which was $50 feet long and 40 feet wide.
The rushing storm alarmed many of the
employees, who fled for escape, but the
crumbling walls fell upon several. The
foreman of the laborers, Mr.. John Miller,
was instantly killed. Mr.. Jas. Mazyck
was dug out of the ruins with only a
spr.incd ankle. Five others were dan
gerously hurt. and Mr.. John Kenneally,
a laborer, died from the effects of inter
nal injuries. Sashes and doors were
blown in by the violence of the wind.

LATEST.

The HNews g. Courier furnishes an in
tercstihg meeting, held on Monday to
protest, the late municipal election. All
classes of the community were rcprescn-
ted,,, and, in view of the unparalleled
frauds INTENDED to wrest the govern
ment.by any means from the hands of
the conservatives, it was unanimously
resolved that t.'thc present Mayor and
Aldermen shall not give up their Offices
until the rights of. the claimants be ju-
dicieusly determined" The meeting was
pledged to sustain the present incum-
bents, in the event of any interference
with their functions. The "old City"
hasfstood a great deal, but her righteous
ire is goused, at last, and well it may be,
in the face Of such viliany.
The trunk Of man, supposed to
be white, was found near the river, above
Charleston. The head and limbs had
been removed before discovery.

THE CHARLESTON ELECTION

T[as been protested, but with what sue
cess is yet to be learned. The frauds in
this election are characteristic of the
Radical party. First, the election Com
missioncrs were all Radicals, by appoint
ment. Next. there were established Sc
CRETLY, upon the extreme portions of
the city, polls, which were crowded with
voters before the Conservatives could
gain Information OF their whereabouts.
Information was desired and demanded
the day prior to the election, but was rs
adroitly cvaded and refused. Again,
steamers brought hundreds of voters
from the neighboring islands, ALL. fixed
up to "save the city" bless them; but
strange to say, the majority claimed by
the Radical party is accounted for III be-
gus votes, being largely in excess of the
registration. If the election goes by de-
fault, Charleston will be saved; if it is
Sustained, she will fall into the hands of
plundcrers. and unprincipled sharpcrs.
