whether the school mistress was in the

this they commenced banging away at
the door, as with the intention OF break
ing it down, at the same time cOntinu-
ing to call for Julia Hayden. II appears
she had 8 room in the upper portion OF
the building. Hearing her name fire.

into me bed occupied by Mrs. Lowe,
Mr.. Lowe having temporarily vacated 1T
to prevent, if possible, the ingress
of the intFuders. Julia Hayden
mad hardly leaped in the bed
before shot came crushing
through the door from the outside, the
ball striking her just below the collar
bone, passing through the neck and
striking and possibly breaking the spinal
column, killing her almost instantly.
Tie murderers, hearing her scream,
mounted their animals aud rode rapidly
Egay. They were tracked after daylight
that morning for some distance, but the
trail was finally lost. Both parties are
said 10 be white men, one Of them wear

sbOoIing of YOeng wilson By an Armed
Band of Bisg aised Negroes.
Everybody, ord aid Young, Arming-
The Country being Secured for
the Criminals.

From the Union and American, Special
COLUMBIA, August 25.-GTeat excite
ment prevails throughout the city in
consequence Of report beng IN circu-
lation TO the effect that some negroes
are attempting to raise riot. Mr.. Ed.
Wilson, son OF Hon. w. r. Wilson, a
young man who lives on the outskirts
of the town, was drawn from his hIuse
about ten o'clock tonight by noise
proceeding from his cOrDtield, which
sounded like some one gathering corn.
Thinking some thiet had gotten among
his corn, / e armed himself with a re-
Volver and sailed forth. He had not
proceeded many steps before he was con-
fronted by several negroes IN disguise,
who Immediately began TO IRE upon
him. He returned the fire, and sue
ceeded in driving his assailants of, not,
however, until he had received two pis-
tol wounds OF q serious nature, besides
having his c5at and vest cut open in
several places by some rp-pointed IN
stIument, which he thinks was knife.
Mr.. Wilson is satisfied that he mortaliy
wounded, II he did not kill two of the ne
groes. He saw only three OF
his assailants but thinks there were
mOI6d.ODCcdtSu IL buC CoAhs IL SAJ .
he is OF the opinion that the negroes
intended a more general attack upon
the whites, and being disappointed
in the rising of sufficient numbers, de-
termined to vent their spite on him, and
for this purpose made the noise which
brought him from the house. MI. VIII
sons wounds are not considered neces-
sarily dangerous. At this writing, hall
past eleven, every man and boy who Is
able to shoulder gun is cut looking for
the would-be murderers, and mounted
men are coming in from the country
every minute. Fears are entertained oy
some that the affair will assume more
serious face before morning. The police.
men, however, are on the alert, and
everything possible will be done to re.
store order aud quiet. Should any oi
the suspected negroes be esught, judging
from the present state of affairs, they
will meet with speedy justice. The ex
element is so great 1t is Impossible Z
