THE BERGER FAMILY.

This splendid and interesting troupe gave
one of their entertaining performances in Ma
sonic Hall at this place on Friday evening last,
which was much enjoyed by the large audience
who were present. The music of the bells was
as usual very ine as was also that OF the Sill
yer Cornet Band. The singing which accom-
panied was very good, and the characters rep
resented and the comedies enacted well chosen.
The Berger Family has wide reputation as
being one of the best musical troupes in the
United States, and wherever they go attract
large audiences.

Personal.

We had the pleasure of a call on Tuesday last
from r. r. Hemphill, Esq, senior editor ofthat
lively and interesting sheet, the Abbeville Me-
di,.m. He is looking quite handsome, and bears
little trace Of the impression made by chills
and fever during the past GUNNER. His business
in ourt town was TO gather material for the local
columns Of his widely -dissemiL ated journal, as
the trade and business Of Abbeville are entirely
too dull to crafty his insatiate ambition in this
direction. He Is cogitating the propriety OF
writing history of Anderson, including bio
graphical sketches of our most distinguished
citizens, and giving due prominence to this To-
cality as the best cotton market in the up-coun-
try. OF course, the publication Of such work
would prove great success, as it would con-
tain the most brilliant thoughts and pithy OBJ
servations OF his fertile imagination.

SHOOTING .AFFRAY.

We are reliably informed that a shooting
affray took place near the residence Of DR.. Can
non, about sixteen miles east Of this place. on
Monday, the Both November Last, resulting in
the seriously wounding of William Colley by
one Charles Elrod, both white men. It appears
that on this night both parties met at corn
shucking given at DR.. Cannon's, and on &C.
count of an old grudge, Elrod, who was in
to1icated, began an assault upon Colley with a
pistol. Colley, who was sober, ordered him to
put up his pistol, saying that he desired no
difficulty with him. Elrod advanced, and
when Colley stopped down, he fired at him,
the ball entering under the lowest point of the
left shoulder, and passing through the body,
lodged in the right side. Upon being shot,
Colley, still in STOPPING posture, ran for some
distance on his hands and knees. Elrod fired
at him again, but missed him. The wounded
man was carried home and surgeons sent for
at once. They soon arrived, and found no
difficulty in extracting the ball, which was un.
der one Of the right ribs, near the outside akin.
At last accounts Colley was slowly improving.
Charles Elrod loft the neighborhood, and has
not been heard Of since.
In our opinion it is high time for our legisla~
tors to enforce the law in relation to the carry
ing Of deadly weapons.

The Election of JUDGE Reed.

The Charleston Me,0s and Courier refers to
the election and its plain Specification in
the following style:
For the victory that was won the people
must thank Gov Chamberlain, IS well as the
minority in the Legislature. The Conserva-
tives felt that some lawyer OF high standing at
the Charleston Bar should have been raised to
the bench that judicial election should not
be made question of party politics. But they
could not eject such candidate as would have
been their first choice; and it was the part of
wisdom to vote for the one candidate, of those
who could be elected, who had most to recon-
mend him. That was their plain duty to their
constituents, and they did it.. Gov. Chamber
lain. in public and in private, fought against
the election of Baker and Whipper. Neither
persuasion nor menace served to drive him
from the position he had deliberately taken.
The first fight which the Chamberlain admin
istration has made is won, and there is not an
honest man in South Carolina who has not to-
day far better and far higher opinion of
Gov. Chamberlain than he had week ago.
In one striking instance the word has ripened
into action.
Judge Reed, although native and lifelong
resident of the up-country, will be no stranger
in Charleston. A kindly welcome awaits him
here. and we have confidence that he will on
the bench, prove himself to be able, incorrup-
tible and just.
The Columbia Phenir speaks of the result
as follows
This election was regarded as a test of the
power and influence of the administration,
which had warmly taken up Mr. Reed as the
most urexceptionable Of the candidates who
were presented, judged by the standard OF the
reform policy marked out in the Governors
inaugural message. The first Judicial District
and the city of Charleston are to be congratu-
lated upon the election of this gentleman.
While he may not be altogether the Judge of
their choice, yet amongst the men who can be
promoted to office in the present condition OF
South Carolina, he stands amongst the first in
talent, character, attainment and general fitness
for the position to which he has been chosen.
He is 10 the vigor of life, was for eighteen
wears the Solicitor of the Northern Circuit, is
known for his assiduity in business and devoted
to the profession of the law, and is possessed
of good talents and frank, earnest manners.
Elected on the reform programme of the pres
ent administration, he will have the incentive
of the task of recommending it to the accep-
tance of the people, and carrying out Its be-
hests practically in his Circuit. We trust, as
we hope, that he will make an acceptable mag
issrate, vigorously sustain the reform policy,
and add to his own reputation.

Annual Session of the Grand Lodge

Annual Session OF the GranQ LOu90.
The annual communication CT the Grand
Lodge of Ancient Freemasons of South Caro-
linz WAS held in Charleston on Tuesday and
Wednesday, Sth and 9th inst. There was
fnl. representation Of subordinate Lodges, and
the session was entirely harmonious and pleas
ant. The address of the Grand Master, Gen.
;. B. Kershaw, was an able document, clearly
elucidating the business transacted during the
term of his Office, and reporting the progress
and condition Of the craft within this jurisdic-
ton. He made eloquent and touching allu-
sions to the death of his predecessor, Robert
8. Bruins, ard likewise to the late Grand Secre-
tary, B. Rush Campbell, both of whom died
since the last session. In conclusion, Gen.
Kershaw declined a reelection as Grand Mas
ter. and rendered his warmest thanks and graf
itude to the craft for the great courtesy and
kindness always received at their hands, bid
ding one and all an affectionate farewell
Among the numerous matters OF interest
before the Grand Lodge, we wcaid mention
the reception of letter from the Grand Lodge
of Louisiana extending thanks for the aid
rendered that jurisdiction by the Masons Of
this State, during the suffering entailed BY the
foods last spring.
Bro. Henry BUST, Of Charleston, submitted
lust and elaborate eulogy in memory OF B.
Rush Campbell, late Grand Secretary, which
was adopted unanimously. A committee OF
three was appointed to prepare suitable tri-
bute to r. S. Bruins, Past Grand Master, which
will be published with the proceedings.
The various reports of committees were IN
structive and interesting, showing a steady,
healthy progress in this jurisdiction, and that
this ancient and honorable fraternity was never
more flourishing than at the present time.
The following officers were elected to serve
the Grand Lodge the ensuing year, viz:
James A. Hoyt, of Anderson, Grand Master.
UImot q DeSaussure, of Charleston, Dep
uty Grand Master.
B. W. Ball, of Laurens, Senior Grand War
den. a
AT. smythe, of Charleston, Junior Gr"ns
Warden. j.,
John H. Honour, of Charleston, Grand
Treasurer.
Charles Inglesby, Of Charleston, Grand Sec
retary.
Rev. VS.. Bowman, of Charleston, Grand
Chaplain.
The installation of the officers elect took
,,ace nm Wednesday evening" after which the
Grand Lodge was closed in ample form.

The Columbia Phenir, in an article {

- The Columbia Pheni1, in an article on
lynch law, revives bit of history pertaining to
this section of tho State: 'The circuit of the
original Capt. John Lynch was at the foot of
the : mountains, in the upper part of Pendleton
district in this State where, a long time ago,
the settlements were thin and turbulence pre-
vailed. His administration OF justice was
shaped by his surroundings. He was the au-
thor as Mills informs US, of the famous law
called by his name, of very notable effect, and
his name, with those of Gen. Andrew Plckens
and Gen. Robert Anderson, placed among the
eminent men of his section. We suppose that
he is the original Judge Lynch He was after
ward known in Mississippi, and perhaps in
Tennessee, and his soul still hovers about, and,
like John Browns, keeps marching on
