RELIEF.
This dispatch was a great relief to
our people, and set their minds at rest
on the subject.
THE SHERIFF AND THE JrDGE.
1t seems from the following dispatch
es that the Sheriff Of Anderson and
Judge Cooke were alarmed for their
safely, even after they had been
lodged in Jail
ANDERSON, S. c.. Dec 6.
Judge T. Fl. Cooke, Greenville, S. c.
There are twelve prisoners in Jail here
charged with the Lowdcsyille murder.
There is a great danger of a rescue and
the murder of the prisoners if they re-
main here or are sent to AbbeYille.
We protected them last night, but may
not be able to do 80 again. Had we not
better send them to Greenville or Wal
halla Jail Immediately? 1t will be unsafe
to delay any longer. Please reply, giving
me Instructions.
WM. McGUKIN, Sheriff.
REPLY OF JUDGE COOKE.
Rely on your own best judgement for
the safety of prisoners. Appeal to the
citizens to sustain YOU. a resort to Lynch
law would bediSastrous. If you cannot
keep the prisoners safely send them to
r. II. COOKE.
The report Of the killing reached
GEN. HAMPTON
on Wednesday, and he urged Col.
Cochran, v no was in Columbia at the
time, to come home on Friday, to
prevent our incensed people from
lynching them, and he directed our
new Sheriff, Mr.. j., y. Jones, to pro-
cecd to LnwndeSville. Il bring any
prisoners, that might he there, to Alb
Lcvillr, which he did as his
FIRST OFFICIAL ACT.
The Sheriff of Anderson was right
in carefully protecting his prisoners,
but we are disposed TO think that he

TUNNEL ON FIRE on THE CENTRAL
OHIo.-The timbers Of the tunnel on the
Central Ohio division Of the B. 4 Q. road,
about six miles west Of Bellaire, knwn as
the Franklin tunnel, caught fire at an
early hour yesterday morning from the
sparks OF passing locomotive, and were
sill burning last evening. New timber
had been put in the tunnel recently,
which OF course will be total loss. Over
the tunnel Is four.ioot seam Of coal,
which caught from the burning tim.
bers, and was still burning at
latest accounts. The steamer United
was sent from this city early In the
morning to the scene Of the fire. and to.
gether with two steamers from Newark,
Ohio, was kept hard at work all day
throwing water upon the burning timbers.
Fortunately the creek near by furnished
an abundant supply Of water. 1t Is
thought that the burning coal cannot be
extinguished without great difficulty, II
ct all. The damage will no doubt be
considerable, but as yet Is matter Of
mere conjecture. Trains were delayed
during the day, the burning tunnel max
ing transfer necessary at that point.
