WE learn from q gentleman who

that far Western State as here, and
already considerable suferings have
been the result. In the country
around Greenville water, taken from

from Is to Is cents per barrel. The
prairies present the appearance OF
our old fields, all the grass dead and
the stock, horses and cattle are poor
and in some places dying. Quite q
number Of people from Georgia and
Alabama are moving to Texas with
the hope Of finding a better living on
her rich lands, but will doubtless find
that disadvantages arc to he met and
troubles to be encountered in Texas
as well as elsewhere. Her citizcns,
however, must be an honest set, for
the merchants Of Greenvillc leave
their store windows unburred and of.
ten the doors unlocked. Radicals, we
suppose, arc few and far between in
Texas. The carrying of weapons,
whether concealed or not, is prohibit

each offence. We hope South Ca-ol
lima will follow the example. The
wealthy class of citizens in Texas arc

THE FIRE.-On Tuesday morning

THE FIRE.-On Tuesday morning
last the alarm of fire called our citi-
zens and the fire department 10 the
Olivcros house, on Russcll-strcct, the
cook room Of which was found to be
on fire. in On Incredibly short time
one or two hundred persons were on
the premises with the two engines
ready and willing to aid in saving
the valuable property from destruc-
ton. The FIRE had already got under
good Roadway, but bY The cRruast and
persistcnt efforts of the department
under Chief Harpin Riggs, was con-
tined TO the room in which it origina-
ted, until the engines could be prop
erly located and constant stream
of water was kept pouring upon the
burning ro9Rf. Thc Hook and Lad
der Company tore the burning tim
bcrs away and the firemcn at the noz-
zle directed the stream through the
entrance thus made into the interior
of the building, where the smoother
ed flame was silently doing its work.
AT one time the wind rose driving
the flames through the roofing and
well up the sides Of the main build
ing. All hope abandoned the croud,
but the brave iircmcn mounted the
ladders, carrying the hose with them
and concentrated their efforts upon
The top of lhe building, where the
ilery tongue of the liquid flames
seem to be licking up the dry shingles
and rapidly to impringc itself upon
the Notwithstanding above. Its an
cry rage laughed at the earnest cf-
forts of the tircmcn but for a moment
and yielded slowly, stubboruly but
surely, until the danger was passed
and the beautiful dwelling saved.
Where noble work was SO bravcly
done, it would peitler be right or just
to make distinctions, suffice it to say
that the thanks Of the town are due
to Chief Riggs and his entire Depart
ment, white and colored, to the citi-
zens who worked at the pumps and
otherwise gave a helping hand who're.
ever it was needed, and to the MANY
