Eureka Items.
From the sentinel Of Jan. Is.

Yesterday afternoon County Sur
yeyor Edwards, while surveying a
tract Of land near the boarding. house OF
the Richmond Mining Company, at
Ruby Hill. met with n severe aud palm
ful accident. While engaged ut his
work he made 4 mis.step OH the slip
perry ground, and In trying to regain
his foothold fell heavily to tho ground,
breaking the right Icy aud sustaining
other Injuries. Mr. Edwards was I'm
mediately conveyed to his residence
here aud DIR. Ne>bltt called to attend
tho sufferer. After n careful examina-
tion, It was found that the lower ex-
tremi,y Of the tlbla bone had been
broken obliquely to the length OF about
two lnhes. The accident will conilne
MI. Edwards to his room for some
time. aud then he will only tc able to
make his appearance by tho aid OF
crutches.
The Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, having get even oil the elevation
made In their taxes by the County
Commissioners, will to-day drop the
extra charge OF twenty-five cents OH
each message. Those who use tho tel
egraph the most had. as q matter OF
course, to foot the bill. Our portion
| OF the "raise" amounted to ten dol.
lars and fifty cents. ID. b. lmmel,
Paxton & Co., and 4 few others con-
tributsd the rest. In other words. the
Telegraph Company made their best
patrons stand the extra assessment.
Mr.. Horrlgan, who had both his feet
frozen about a month since. while com.
Ing from Belmont to this place on
horseback. had q portion OF both feet
amputated last Monday evening. DR..
Cummings, under whose care the un.
fortunate man had been placed, did
everything In his power to avert the
necessity OF amputation, bu: In vain.
Mr.. Horrigan Is doing rs well rs could
be expected under the circumstances,
and feels that hi, life has been spared,
even ut the great sacrifice OF losing the
full use Of his feet.
There Il an immense stack Of bars
piled up ut the Richmond works. We
have heard no estimate, but at . rough
guess would lay the amount at some
thing near 200 tons.

BApTIsM.-A large number of our
citizens assembled on Sunday last, at
a temporary pool which had been
constructed on the Vienna Road be-
low the town, to witness the impres.
sivc ceremony of baptism. as per-
formed accdrding TO the custom of
the Baptist Church. The ordinance
was administered by the Rev. r. N.
Pratt, the pastor of the church here,
TO eight persons-six females and two
male. After religious services, and
SOHO appropriate remarks showing
tho Scriptural authority for the ordi-
nance, the pastor went down into the
pool, and succcssively baptized the
various candidates by immersion.
Cloaks were thrown over their drip
ping persons on coming out OF the
water, and carriages soon conveyed
them to their homes. Everything
was done with becoming dccorum,
and the services were Of q very i'm
pressivo character. We are glad to
see these accessions to tho Church,
and hail them as hopeful signs Of the
pastors zeal and successful ministry.

the work of reform. Tho Greenville

Gen. Kershaw has met the issue
like man. He is Il statesman, and
secs the inevitable. There must he a
division Of Offices with the negroes
and it is best that the Conservatives
grant them the right, which has been
refused them by their carpet-bag
friends. Take this letter for plat.
form, and place Gen. Kershaw at the

ton to tho Gubernatorial chair is

Besides, it will secure a 1legi' laturc

A TERRIBLE TaAGEDY.-The Au.
gusta papers give an account of a
terrible tragedy which occurred in
that city on Saturday afternoon, in
the killing of Capt. A. F. Butler,
agent of the South Carolina Railroad,
by two colorcd men, Michael and
Gabriel Murrel. The Captain had
been to the Cemetery with his wife,
and was returning to his residence in a
street car and when near home he call
Cd to the Conductor to stop. Whilst as.
sisting his wife down, he was assaulted
by one of the colorcd men, (the tes-
timony seems to be conflicting as to
which one it was, and shot through
the head with pistol ball. He was
taken to his residence and survived
only short time. AS a matter of
course great excitement prevailed.
The colored men were both arrested
and lodged in JUL. Late at night a
large body of armed men proceeded
TO the Jail and forced the surrender
of the prisoners. After hearing testi'
mony and deciding that Michael was
the guilty party, they shot him to
pieces.

of the firm of Seal, Sign and Robert
son, was robbed Of q pocket.book
containing five hundred dollars and
valuable notes, which had only re
Gently been deposited in coat hang
ing up in the bedroom of their car

The boy lives on the Vienna Road
near W. W. Sprouse's, and on his re-
turn homo was waited on by Mr.. S.,
who obtained from him q confession.
He stated that he obtained $40 or $50
from Joe Moore, a notorious colored
boy of this town--that Moore had
committed the robbery by entering
tho shop, hc standing without, and
had given him the money to keep
still. He showed, also, where the
pocket-book and papers had been de-
posted in tho Episcopal Cemctry.
These have been recovered, but only
a dollar Or so of the money. Moore

and Vfenra Roads. One Of his boards
points to the heavens, with the in
scription, "Darksdale's Ferry, 70
mics" and we suppose is intended to
indicate the distance of the ferry on
tho .hcavcnward road. The other
points dowhwards, and is marked
"Calhoun's Mills, 9 miles," and would
seem to set forth station on the de-
scending road. We do not presume
that Primus had any malicious intent
in tho premises.

PEDEsTRIANIsM EXTRAoRDlNARY.-
The minds and inclinations of great
men often run in the same chan
mel. Not long since Mr.. James Cor
don Bennett, who has the talent and
genius for making the best newspaper
on the American continent-the New
York Herald,-won some notoriety
and some money too, by pedestrian
feat, and now the Senior Editor of
the MEDIUM wins equal renown in u
race with Mechanics bull dog. Nc
CIane's dog was distanced and there
by failed to get his dinner from the
Editor.

The Fourth Congressional District.

The Greenrille Daily Neps urges
that by proper effort, the defeat Of
Wallace can be effected, and Con
servativc candidate elected in this
District. The Republican majority o.
nine hundred can bc easily overcome
and q proper man elected. 1t says
This district is composed of the
counties Of Grecnville, Spartanburg
Union, York, Chester, Fairfield, ker
shaw and Lancaster.
BY the census Of 1870. it contained
1873 whites and 1929 blacks. Up
on an estimate Of one voter to five
inhabitants, the colored majority Is
about 900. This makes the question
of election doubtful, and we'll worth q
decided struggle. 1t is high time
some one was being brorght out
against Wallace, so that for the first
time in years all active csnrass can DC
had.
The counties of Grcenrille, Spar
tanburg and Lancaster are conserva
tive. York is evenly divided, and
Union is republican by but q few
votes. Chester, Fairfield and Ker
shaw arc republican by a vote Of
about two to one.
Altogether, there is no reason ir
the world why 4 good representative
cannot be sent to Congress, if strug
gle be made. The effort is worth
trying. We suggest that the Tax
Union Of Fairfield consult with or
ganizations in other counties as tc
The time and place of holding Con
gressional Convention.
