Since his new departure Hamilton has
been driving an unusually lively busi-
ness. There are several reason. for this,
but the principal one lies in the fact that
he has, perhaps, the choicest stock of
dry goods ever brought to this market,
and that he has not been backward in
the important matter of informing the
public that he is prepared to accommo-
date them. The public will at all times
find Hamilton's s an advantageous place
to deal. The very latest styles of dry
goods may now be found upon his shelves
and counters, and the supply will all
wavs be kept fully up to the demand.

We learn that Mr.. Jacob Sellers, of
Clayton township, lost a valuable horse,
by singular mishap. on Monday last.
He was riding the horse. and in crossing
a small stream, near the widow Kaylor's,
it stepped into quick sand, and soon
sank to such depth as to preclude the
possibility of it's getting ont without aid,
and being unable to render the necessary
assistance himself, Mr.. S. hurried TO
procure help. The animal was so far
under when the help arrived upon the
scene that it required the efforts of sew
eral persons and team to pull it out,
and it was so seriously injured by its
struggles that it died shortly afterwards.

SUICIDE.
An Affecting Letter that Tells the Sad
Tale of Disappointment

SAN FRANCISCO, June l9.-Cunning-
ham Walt, son Of William Walt, dry
goods merchant, So and 80 Second
street, New York, committed suicide
last night on board the ship Cary,
while lying at Greenwich docks, by
taking laudanum. The following let
ter to his mother, addressed to Mrs.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1876-05-25

State understood them, and with such under
standing, the multitude accepted them. The
few, however, determined not to submit to the
Crown of England. 1t was freedom they
sought, from the outset. 1t was freedom they
still longed for. Some fled from the State !;
others remained and were subjected to insults
and INJURIES
Such was briefly the condition of things in
South Carolina and Georgia after the fall of
Charleston. Heretofore the operations of the
British had been confined exclusively to the
sea.coast. Now the battle field changes. The
struggle for independence is made in the up.
country. The counties bordering on North
Carolina are made classic grounds, whilst the
swamps of the Santee and Pee Dee become
the hiding places of partisan bands, as brave
as Leonidas or Hector. In these wild re-.
gions sprang up, as if by magic, bands which
turned the tide of the war, and won Ameri.
can freedom.
In future, we will follow the advance of the
British in the up.country, and, as we'll as we
may be able, sketch the noble daring and he
roic suffering of those who met them at every
turn
