The daily phoenix. [volume] (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, 1875-06-26

The easel of Henry Seegar, indicted
for the murder of Miss Catharine Tucker.
in Anderson County, last summer,
which was transferred to Grecnvillc, was
ended by verdict Of not guilty. The
prisoner owes his life to the excellent
management of his case by his counsel
and the cloqnence displayed by these
gentlemen. Upon the return of the
verdict, the Judge rccommittcd the pri-
soncr. probably with view of ensurine
his safety.
There is even g happiness taat makes
the heart afraid.

Mn. EDITOR: The case of the State Us.
c. c. Bowen, charged with being acces-
sorry to the murder Of Col. w. 7. White
in 1864, was called here to-day. Grimes
told the same old story Of guilt on
Bowen's part, and in his narrative he was
sometimes very dramatic. Bowen was
calm and collected, rs though the terri
BILE charge under which he was arraigned
did not exist. Some half dozen unscru-
pulous witnesses appeared for him from
Georgia, who literally swore poor Grimes
away. At $50 p. NJ. the case went to
the jury, and the dense audience of
blacks awaited the result. When "not
guilty" was announced, tho hyenas
yelled, whooped md squnlled as 1 never
heard them before. Bowen was caught
upon the shoulders of many of the ne
groes and carried about town. Uproar-
Gus demonstrations continued until q
late hour tonight Bowen is said to be
proud of the denomination made by tho
blacks. He is welcAme to the honor.
Chamberlain is still popular in the best
circles here. WINYAW

REMEMBER THE ORPHANS.-George
B. Webb, Superintendent of the Orphan
Asylum at Carson, has written a letter
to Judge Harmon. appealing to him in
behalf CT the little ones under his
charge, for means to gladden. their
hearts aud fill their stockings at the
approaching Christmas. For the past
two or three years Virginia has con-
tributed annually several hundred dol
lars for the purpose, but the terrible
disaster which has recently befallen
that unfortunate city, renders 1t i'm
probable that anything will be received
from there this year, and unless con-
tr,bQtiOns are received from other
places, fifty little stockings must re
main empty, and fif y little hearts
throb with sadness at the thought thai
Santa Claus had given them a wide
berth. No n will he the poorer for
anything contributed towards lighten-
ing the hearts of the orphans of our
STATE on the anniversary Of the birth
OIL Him whose love for little children
was SO great that he said "Sutfer them
70 come unto me, and forbid them not,
Tor Of such is the Kingdom Of Heaven"
We hope that EurekA will send on a
handsome donation. Any person feel
mv disposed to contribute can leave the
amount of their subscriptions with
Judge Harmon, who will forward 1t to
MIR. Webb.
