Mr.. Silas Feaster who wrote to the
New York News Co., will please call
at the Newberry HERALD Office. and
get the information desired. That
company having written to us or the
subject.
sd. D. W., writing from Wood
ruff's. S. c., to the Greenville Ne'rs,
SAYS: CDR. Cannon, from NeWberry,
has been up with view OF purchasing
house here. We hope he will cast in
his lot with u.s.
The doctor says he likes that coun-
try very much, but that the property
owners at Woodruff have ''their sights
leetle TOO high" * rs -.,'s
There is a laudable effort on foot to
organize here society for the Pre-
vention OF Cruelty to Animals. A
meeting for this purpose will be held
at an early day. of which due notice
will be given. Mr.. W. Fl. Hunt, Jr.,
has with much appropriateness taken
the initiative in this matter. We say
appropriateness for it is to his uncle,
Gen. Ike Hunt. that the society>of this
kind in Greenville owes its origin and
present useful existence.
Last week we mentioned that DR..
Simpson had been beaten, and that the
cause OF the beating was unknown. The
following special to the Sunday Ne,os
gives the cause: Il.
WINNsBoRo,' s. c., August 1s.-
The circumstances giving rise to the
recent assault upon DR.. Isaiah Simp-
son, dentist of this place are as fol-
fows: About the year 1874, or little
earlier. DR.. Simpson took into his
family white orphan girl, who was
then somewhat over six years Of age.
There she remained until last October,
when she left under circumstances CIV
ing rise to the suspicion that there had
been improper relations between Sinp-
son and herself. In June last it was
reported that the girl had become
mother in North Carolina. Simpson,
when approached upon the subject,
acknowledged his crime. He was at
once expelled from the church OF which
he was a member.
UU UllC llSnL vi Iic OH list. dc
Simpson was returning from prayer
meeting, in company with his sister,
he was approached bya party Of mask
ed men, numbering six or eight, and
seized, and considerably though, as it
now turns out, not very severely beat
en-. Two of the men laid hold of the
lady, holding her in order to prevent
her interference. She was somewhat
bruised, it is said, but she was not
struck and not hurt. The party gave
Simpson notice that he must leave
| town in ten days. A day or two after
wards he did leave, having first sold
all his property here. He has not been
seen since. ..-... .-- . ..f
The universal feeling in the COM
munity, on Simpsons conduct, is one
OF the utmost Indignation and disgust.
There is no one who attempts to pal
late his crime in the slightest degree.
This community have been especially
outraged by his producing letter pur-
porting to come from the ruined girl,
| in which she assumes the blame of the
disgracefnl affair. As to the assault,
no sympathy whateveris felt for Simp-
son, though, by some, it is thought
that the time was i'll chosen. There is
generafdisapproval OF the seizing OF
the lady.

The Knife and the Stick.

A difficulty occurred last Friday
between Ex-member of the legislature
and eX-bigamist, Thomas Keitt, COL.
and Mr.. Barlow Caldwell, during which
Keitt was cut in several places by Mr.
Caldwell with pocket knife. The
latter received some severe blows on
the arm from a stick in Keitt's hand,
breaking the small bone of the arm.
The wounds, though painful, are none
OF them considered dangerous. The
difficulty arose out OF dispute about
some hay.

month in advance of their usual time.
The large congregation of swallows,

A colored man, on the planta.
ton of Mr.. J. j. Ziegler, seven
miles from here, went to the field
yesterday morning ats o'clock to
shoot some squirrels that were eat

and so intent was he on the killing
of the squirrel. that he passed a rat
tlesnake and was bitten without

and then shot the snake, when he
began to feel the bite. He started
