The Laurensville Herald says that
a negro. named John Benjamin, on the
10th ult., shot and killed Isom Hen
derson, while hunting for another negro
whom it was his purpose to kill.
The same paper says, Miss Moore,
alluded to last week. as being injured
by lightning, died from the wound.
At the same time four head of fine
cattle were killed by lightning, and a
Mr. G. Fowler severely injured.
And melancholy to relate further,
our poor friend, Tom, says that there
is not a pound of cured meat in the
town, and until some is obtained COL
lards must remain in the garden. Our
bowels yearn for him. Come down
here, poor fellow, and we'll grease you
inside and out. Build the Laurens
road, Tom, and we will send you a

Williamson Female College.

Williamson Female College.
We are gratifed to notice mention
in several of our exchanges, that the
cornerstone of the new Williamson
Female College, was laid on the 9th
ult. The ceremonial was imposingly
conducted by the Masonic fraternity,
and is described as exceedingly in
teresting, a very large number of per-
sons from neighboring Counties being
present, and among whom were several
press representatives. The Abbeville
Press & Banner, says:
"Before the stone was lowered,
Grand Treasurer James Mccullough,
deposited beneath it the following,
among other articles of interest :
"A copy of the New Testament, a
catalogue of the College, programme
Of the last years Commencement, lists
Of all the teachers and pupils of each
session since the establishment of the
College, list Of the stockholders, of
the directors, of the operatives on the
building, Of the officers in attendance,
copies Of late Anderson, Abbeville,
Grcenville. Laurens,, Newberry and
Columbia papers.
'"The stone is Italian marble, l2y15
inches and 8 inches deep, highly pol
ished on the visible faces. On the
East face is engraved, "W. F. c.,
August p, 1873" On the North
face, "Alme motTi TEie dant." 1t
rests. upon base of variegated Ten
lessee marble, three inches thick.
"The new building of which the cor
ner-stone was laid is to be brick ad-
dition to the present building, 44x67
feet, three stories high. The whole
of the first story, which is IA feet s
inches, will be occupied by the chap
cl; the second story will contain two
large Society Halls, and four good
sized rooms for dormitories the third
story will be divided into eight sleep
ing rooms. The whole house, when
finished, will contain over 10000 feet
Of floor space"
Interesting and eloquent addresses
were made, and an elegant and bouu-
teous dinner served on this auspicious
occasion, and the whole happy order Of
exercises terminated in a highly salts
factory manner.
We sincerely congratulate President
Lander on the success which has thus
far crowned his efforts in extending
the size of the College, and indulge
the hope that large accessions will be
made to the already goodly number Of
his pupils.

Some very iIpOrtant facts were told at

one persons since the last quarterly meeting
without the assistance of a revival. The COM
mittee on parsonage reported that about three
thousand dollars had been subscribed to build
pa -sonage, payabls in one, two, and three
wears Much OF thus success is due to Thos.
X. Williams and w. A. Latta, who carried
around the subscription list.

EuhnA Turuin

Last week Mai. Boiling Gordon, wanted to
buy buggy and went TO Kuhn Turpin's for
that purpose, but, as he was on his way TO
Nashville, concluded he wsuld wait until he
could look through the shops there. After he
returned, he told us that he went through the
Exposition and all the shops at the Capital,
but found no. work in any of them that cor
pared with Kuhn & Turpin's, in point Of
strength, style or cheapness. This compii-
ment, coming from the source. it does, is one
of the highest that could be bestowed.
1T is sometimes said that if we have
railroads coming to Columbia, cotton
and other articles will pass through to
Nashville, and be sold there. This
would not be the case if Columbia
should be as good a market as Nash
Vile, as it might be if we had railroad
facilities. If we did not furnish rs good
a market as Nashville, these articles
would pass on to Nashville, even if
they came to Columbia ON wagons.
Arrangements can doubtless be made
with the Louisville, Nashville, and
Great Southern Railroad when we get
our eastern and western roads, to take
articles from Columbia to New Orleans,
New York, or other distant markets, as
cheaply as they can be taken from
Nashville. This will put us On an
equality with Nashville as a market
Pulaski appreciates these advantages,
and is anxious to get them, whether we
are or not.
