Butler, who had thrown out skirrLish lines
surrounding the negroes, and ADDS: "There
was undoubted evidence OF q well-digested
plan, which, II carried ont, would have re-
suited in the slaughter Of nearly all the ne
groes in the place. The presence Of troops
brought about an agreement by which both
armed whites and negroes disbanded. On
the march from R0use's Bridge to Ellenton
the bodies Of negroes who had been killed
were found, and information was received
that five therS had also been killed. The ne
groes were completely cOwed, and afraid to
leave their hiding places in the woods ana

4 Beautiful but Foolish Girl.

Miss Fannie Mcknight, of jack
sonvile, H.. beautiful bloned of
sweet I6, took the wild freak into her
head the other day of runnig away
from home. The object was to earn
her own living and have some fun.
Dressed in boys clothes, she made
her way to St.LOuis in company with
a younger brother, who jumped the
train as il was crossing the bridge for
fear the police would catch them,
after vainly endeavoring to persuade
her to fOllw him. At the union depot
she fell into the hands of friendly
policeman, who took her to the chief
Office after she had voluntarily told Of
her disgust. Her parents are highly
respectable and well-to-dO people, AID
the freak originated purely in reading
wild novels and romances,

A vicious system and is Results.

From the Chicago Tribune.
All merchants who have bought
goods in this market are aware that in
almost every line of trade there are
various discounts allowed upon price
lists, according to amount purchased,
time of payment, kind of goods, etc,
etc. In many branches of trade are
combinations among manufacturers to
fix discounts so that they viii be uni
form, but there is scarcely q shadow
of doubt that there is wholesale sys-
TEN of cheating in these discounts
which places the dishonest upon a bet
ter footing with purchasers than the
honest. This is done in various ways.
Recently a manufacturer was asked by
the Supply Agent of certain railroad
to make bid for a particular article
of hardware. He gave his price,
which was the lowest allowed by the
terms of compact between all the man.
ufacturers of the article required. He
was told that another merchant could
sell it at less price, and, on investi-
eating the matter, found that it was
true, though the bills were made out
at regular rates. The trick was to
