Killed by Lightning.

On last Friday evening about dark,
Mr.. John Hall was killed by lightning
ut his home on the plcntation of e. w :.
Goodwin, Esq, in this, County. The
circumstances as related by Mrs. Hall
are as follows: At that timo she and
her husband were standing in the door
looking out, when the chimney Of tho
house was struck by lightning. She
fell outside Of tho door. The last thing
she remembers was a jarring sound
about the head. Alter some length Of
time she partially recovered conscious
ness, crawlcd in the house and went to
bed. After getting in bed she saw by
the flashes Of the lightning the body of
her husband lying near where he was
standing in the door. She now, for the
first time, began to realize the situation
and went and informed the ncighbors
AT the time The house was struct, two
children were on the inside, and ono of
them, perhaps both, near the fire place,
but neither was injured. A plate out
of which one Of them WIS eating was
broken perhaps, by a faliue; brick.
The deceased was burnt on right leg
The leg of his pantaloons and also the
shoe correspond ing were torn or bursted
There wore no other mlrks Of violencc.
Mrs. Hall was also burnt slightly,
causing lameness.
An inquest was held on Sunday BY
Coroner Brstow, DR.. Vidal making the
post moricn, examination. The verdict
of the jury was that deceased came to
his death by lightning, according to the
facts above stated.
This is the third Coroncr's inquest
in this County on Sunday, within the
past three weeks. One over the remains
of Rigdon Dudley was held on the 2nd
inst; one over the remains Of Aa Oil
Clark was held on tho 9th instant, aud
one above mentioned makes the third -

The Time is Coming.

1t is extremely refreshing during
these exceedingly hot days Of August to
read the disntcrestcd words of advice
offered to the Republican party of this
State by its quite natural allies and
warm friends(D the Democratic news
papers. From the mountains to the
scaboasd come fattering words of com
mendation, and we are only surprised
that the Republicans have held out SO
long from the proffered embrace. These
patriotic and politically pure public
journals, interested in nothing but the
advancement and prosperity Of the
State, would scorufully put aside any
promise of pecuuiary support from
corrupt administration. Tf cir columns
would teen with dcnuuciations Of any
party which would offer to sha,c with
them in the public robberies of the
taxpayers. z
The Nc,rs anl Courier and the
Phonin, notably Of all others, would
not touch the radical pitch for fear Of
de6ling their virgin white Democratic
fingers. oh no!
The handsome buildings from which
both these journals send forth their
fiery lulminations- against Mr.. Chamber
>, lain in particular and the Republican
party in. gcncral-werc erected from the
profits of Legitimate newspaper bust
ness; at least We are told so-but then
it is human nature not to believe all
that one hears nor all he sees. Just
now both those papers have taken upon
themselves the hcrculcan task of domol
jshing one man in the interest Of some
other man. What their motive is can
not be Judged from their published
words. They know that with Mr..
Chamberlain in tho Executive chair
public pap to Democratic newspapers is
at an end, and they further know that
no money from the State Treasury
WOulu pc used TO control Demo cratic or
any other newspapers in the interest Of
any clique, faction or party. Tiey
fully realize this fact, aud act accord
ingly. Let Mr.. Chamberlain be elected
Governor of this State, and We will
make the prediction that the Charleston
Ne,cs and Courier will not be offered
any sum Of money, large or small, to
keep silent upon any point. Neither
will it be made an official paper in
order to draw its sting. Those days
have gono by, and no more money can
be made in that way. The time is
coming when even Democratic news
papers will be compelled to care more
for principle than for money. It has
been long time since such state of
affairs existed in this section, bat it is
coming, just as sure as fate. = Columbia

THE REAL INDIAN DRAMA.

The New York Herald, the only
leading journal of the East that seems
to appreciate the condition of affairs
on the border, speaks in the following
strain of what may be expected from
"Lo" during the coming summer and
fall: "The red-skinned pets Ct Con-
gress gathered on the reservation at
Fort Sill are suffering from "ennui.r
The gentle savages are signing for a
little excitement, and as there are no
sensation theaters ON the Plains The
poor Indian has to get up a real drama,
spiced according to his fancy. Being
in a playful mood, the braves are think
ing Of getting up performance on a
large scale for their own profit and
amusement, as well as the satisfaction
Of their Washington patrons. The
scene will open with the takingof some
Texan scalps, and a grand sensation
effect will be produced by the burning
of settlers houses. The chief interest
of the performance will lie in its vivid
ness, and in reality real scalps will be
taken and real farm houses be burned
down. The effect will be heightened
by burning the Inhabitants if they are
fools enough to remain in the theater
Of operations. When the play is over
and the braves are tired out with their
Uncle Sam will send down
a body Of troops to escort them back
to the reservation, where they will re-
ceive new supply Of ammunition and
be thanked in the name of their Con-
gressional friends and admirers. AS
soon as the savages have recuperated
and life becomes dull at Fort Sill, the
performance will be renewed

AIDE, and bring in letters from the Ex-
petition, and all news received will he

Office. So far the boys have hadsno
trouble whatever with Indians, and
when last heard from were in excellent
spirits and the whole outfit in excel
lent condition. We do not apprehend
any trouble to the Expedition from
hostile Indians. The whole object of
this exploration Of. the Yellowstone
and its tributaries was peaceful one,
and the boys do not desire to provoke
hostHities- They will use discretion
in avoiding conflicts. Their purpose
is to prospect the country, and open
up communication with the East by q
good wagon and stage road. Many
no doubt will select good ranches Ant
homes in the fertile regions of the Vel
lowstone, and aid in building up
prosperous community in that section,
and we feel sure that the Government
Of the United States will give all neces-
sary aid and assistance in so praise
worthy an undertaking. It is proper
to say that VERNoN's party left before

has no sort of connection with it. YER.

A Relniniscence Of Edgar
Allen Poe.

In the new volume of Poe's poems,
edited by r. H. Stoddard, the editor,
in the preface, thus gives the last scene
in the life of Poe:
He started from Richmond October
2, l849, and arrived at Baltimore be-
tween trains, and unfortunately took a
drink with friend, the consequence
of which was that he was brought back
from Havre de Grace in state of delir-
ium. 1t was on the eve of a municipal
election, and as he wandered up and
down the streets Of Baltimore he was
secured by the la less agents of o po-
litical club and locked up in a cellar all
night. The next morning he was taken
out in state of frenzy, drugged, and
made to vote in eleven different wards.
The following day he was found In a
back room at the political headquarters
and removed to a hospital. He was
insensible when found, and remained
so on October Z. The doctor and nurse
were with him when he first showed
consciousness. "Where am I?" he
asked. They answered, "You are cared
for by your best friends" After a
pause, in which he seemed to rocall
what had occurred, and to realize his
situation, Poe replied, "My best friend
would be the man who would blow out
my brains" Within ten minutes he
was dead.

New Civil Rights Bill.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-1he House
committee on the. Judiciary to-day
agreed upon supplementary Civil
Rights bill, taking that which last year
passed the Senate and is now pending
in the House, as foundation for il.
The only alterations made are the
omission of cemeteries and insertion
of provision for separate schools for
white and blacks, with equipments and
provisions for instruction in all respects
equal, the appropriation of school funds
to be pro rata between the races. In
stead of the penalties being cumula.
tive, the House makes them either
civil or criminal.
The chairman of the committee has
