Killed and Buried by Lightning.

A strange story comes from Florence.
S. c. As James Best was crossing field
on his farm yesterday he was Instantly
killed by a stroke Of lightning, which tore
up the ground where he had stood. and
buried him from sight Mr.. Best was
seen just before the fatal stroke and his
disappearance produced great conster-
nation among those persons who were
watching him from their windows,
and several ran out to Gathom the
mystery. They found a large hole, sur
rounded with heaps Of dirt, but not a ves
tige Of Mr.. Best. After two hours hard
work with shOvels his dead body was
found at the bottom OF the hole. The
case is producing sort of religious terror
among the more ignorant and supersti
tious countrymen, and they lock upon it
as an omen of some great calamity,

In a four-column article on the meaning
Of the disability" Of the President, as used
in the Constitution Of the United States,
the New York Sun conclusively shows
that there is no warrant and no necessity,
either existing or imaginary. for Arthur
