WILMINGTON, n c., October g.
The British steamship Barnesmore
sailed from this port to-day for Liv-
erpool with cargo of cotton and
naval stores valued at 100000. She
is the first steamer cleared from Will
mington for foreign port since the
war, but it is expected that other
steamers will follow her, with a
prospect of regular line between
this place and Liverpool, ere long.

Riot and Murder at Pondleton.

On last Saturday night a party of some
ten or twelve negroes assembled in o
negro's room at Pendleton for the purpose
of passing the night in gambling spree.
At late hour of the night. the noise of q
serious riot attracted several gentlemen of
the town to the scene of the disturbance,
where they found Paul Richardson stabbed
to death and laying outside of the door.
AS they approached some seven or eight
negroes ran ont, and they found James and
William Green and Milton Wright badly
cut in several places. Noarrests were made
until Sunday morning. and no investiga-
ton had until Monday. In the meantime
Ben. Keels, who was one of the party, had
made his escape, and when the inquest was
held no testimony was elected against any
one except Milton Wright, who is Demo
cratic negro and one of those who were cut.
The negro who was killed had fre-iron
clenched in his hand, and all Of the indica-
tions point to fearful conflict in which
many, if not all of those present, were EN-
gagged. The delay in making arrests and
allowing She parties engaged to confer to-
gether gave them an opportunity to con-
spire to put the charge off upon Milton
Wright, which, it is believed, they attempt.
ed to do. Wright was the only one held
upon the inquest, which was taken by
Trial Justice W. II. D. Gaillard, Esq,
acting Coroner. He was committed to the
calaboose in Pendleton for safe keeping,
but before Tuesday morning had succeeded
in making his escape by breaking out at
the top of the building. He has not been
heard of since.
Thus, a most dangerous riot and unjusti-
fable murder has been committed, and the
criminals have not been secured. We have
not seen the official papers OF the inquest,
but presume that it has not been concluded,
and will be vigorously pushed until the
whole truth is ascertained. The occurrence
is one of too serious nature to be lightly
dismissed. The guilty men should be found
out and hung.

Ln! the Old Field Pine.

Mr.. EDITOR: In passing through the va
rious neighborhoods of this and adjoining
counties, where pleasure or business called
ME, have been struck with the universal
destruction of the pine forests to be seen
everywhere. Ever since the mania for the
production of cotton seized our farmers,
among other direful results likely to flow
from said hallucination there is none more
deplorable or likely to produce more of dis
aster than the general clearing of our pine
forests. The oak forests, at least since the
adoption of the stock law, have been COM
paratively free from destruction, but the
said exemption for the oak has produced q
corresponding exaction upon the pine,
which, unless arrested, will in very few
years denude our whole country Of the in
estimable blessing of numerous pine forests.
In some respects, the pine forest is more
desirable than the oak, and on every farm
a sufficient amount of land should be de-
voted exclusively to the growth OF the
pine. And this, too, for the double pur-
pose of improving the sanitary condition
of the country as well as the Importance Of
preserving for the uses Of those who are to
follow us the valuable pine timber for fuel
and building purposes. In regard to health,
the pine forest is regarded everywhere as
one of the greatest preventives of malarial
fevers. In some neighborhoods where such
fevers have prevailed to an alarming extent,
certain localities have escaped, and no known
cause for the exemption, even in the judg-
nent of the physicians, than all interven- :
ing pine forest between the niarshy bottom
and the residence of the fortunate family.
In this country, once the natural home Of
the oak, the pine, the hickory, and other
illimitable forest growth, we scarcely real
ize the great necessity of preserving to our
children proportionate forest growth, not
only for their comfort and health, but as
great preservative of the fertility Of the soil.
In other countries not blessed as ou:s once
was with dense forest growth, this ques-
ton of forests is exciting the attention of
legislative bodies, and they are wisely and
successfully providing for the propagation
of forests over their arid and treeless plains.
Shall we, whose only care should be TO pre-
serve moiety of our superabundant forest
growth for the benefit of posterity, that they
may not have to reproach MS with the su-
preme folly of reckless waste Of the God
given gifts of a kind Providence in the noble
forests that once loomed up all around US
in this magnificent country. Allow me to
put in at least one plea in behalf of the
forests of our country. "Woodnan, spare
that tree,,' L. H. Il.

was always held in high esteem by his ac-
auaintances for his good character and up
right life. His remains were inferred in
the Methodist graveyard at Hartwell.
Abbeville county lost heavily by the
freshet last week. Seven or eight public
bridges were washed away, and many 9TH
ers considerably damaged. 1t is economy
for County Commissioners to always build
such bridges as will not be washed away by
every rise in the streams, but will stand the
heaviest freshets. 1t would cost some
thing, it is true, but who doubts that it
would be the cheapest in the end
Wilder, little six-year-old son of Mr..
NJ. L. Poore, was drowned in Big Creek,
upon Maj. J. T. Deans plantation, in this
County, on Thursday the 18th inst, while
attempting to cross the creek upon log.
He and an elder brother, about eight years
of age, were gaing to their fish traps, when
the little fellow fell in the creek, which was
swollen and some six feet deep, and was
washed down some two hundred yards and
drowned, despite the heroic but unavailing
efforts of his little brother to save him.
The body was recovered as soon as assist
ance could be called, but too late to revive
the child. The parents are deeply sympa-
thized with in their sore bereavement.

Gen. Micah Jenkins.

ANDERSON, s. c., March 81, 1881.
MR. EDITOR Recently the remains of the
late Gen. Micah Jenkins were removed
from Summerville, 8. c., to the city of
Charleston, and laid to rest in the beautiful
Magnolia Cemetery. Active steps are being
taken to erect a monument over the last
resting place of this distinguished soldier,
and that the survivors Of his famous
Brigade in Anderson County may have an
opportunity of contributing to this lauda-
BILE purpose, an informal meeting of survi-
vors of the Brigade was held in the Judge
OF Probate's office on the 25th inst, when
it was resolved to appoint committee to
solicit subscription, to be applied to the
erection of this monument. The following
is the committee: w. w. Humphreys, John
w. Daniels, D. 8. Maxwell, a. J. Sitton,
James w. Poore, James A. Drake, D. L..
Cox, r. V. Ackcr and P. X. Norris.
Each member of the committee will be
expected to canvass his immediate neigh
borhood at once, and to report with
amounts collected to an adjourned meeting,
to be held in the Court House on salcsday
in April.
The memory of this chivalrous soldier is
lovingly enshrined in the breasts of all who
followed his knightly plume, and we feel
assured that every old soldier will be but
too glad of the opportunity of testifying his
love and admiration of the great chief who
80 often led them to victory.

An Explanation.

Mr.. EDITOR: You were pleased to repro
duce in your excellent paper part of my
letter Of Editorial Correspondence" prin-
ted in Baptist Courier Of March 10th inst.
after the manuscript had left my hands, I
found that had made statement some
what inaccurate, and should have corrected
it sooner but have been away from home
from March Sd till to-day. wish to e1-
plain as follows:
Captain McFall and myself had no in
tention of misrepresenting any phosphate
company at all, but laughed over the matter
as it was exhibited at Port Royal harbor. I
am informed that some guanos have bona
fde factories in the United States, and make
and sell their own fertilizers, while Others
do not do so, but just claim to do so. Now,
what said about Soluble Pacific" tEti-
wan," ct al, was given just in way of illus
tration of the statement was making. It
may be that my inaccuracy of statement
extends to other brands mentioned in my
letter. If so, I cheerfully make the correc-
ton. As to the main facts was not incor-
rect nor inaccurate. 10000 tons saw, and
out of that pile, ground in Dublin and lying
there in bulk in Port Royal harbor, were
being sacked thousands of bags and stamped
with different brands and sold in various
parts Of the country. write this as see
from your present issue that my esteemed
and valued friend, Mr.. W. 8. Ligon, finds
it necessary to correct my statement, so far
as Soluble Pacific goes"
The whole matter was regarded as joke,
and was published as matter of pleasantly.
As you published the extract from Baptist
Courier you will please print the above that
it may be seen by the readers of the INTEL
LIaENcER also.
So far as I am concerned, shall be glad
to discuss with my friends, not guanos
again, but melons raised from the stimula-
ting effects of any and all kinds of phos-
pilates, and as much of the article seems to
be ground in Dublin, I trust that after it
gets into the soil of our many South Caro-
lima friends that 1t may go on doubling and
thrilling in its beneficial effects, and that
we shall have most satisfactory crop of
cotton and sell it at 121 cents per pound.
With kindness for all and malice toward
none, am respectfully yours,
WM. HENRY STRICKLAND.
