The Abbeville Medium, says: Last Thursday
a most inhuman and atrOcious crime was at
tempted just below Mccormick on the Knox
vile and Augusta Railroad. As the engineer
Of one Of the down trains was running along
at full speed. about three miles from Nc
Cormick, he discovered a child on the track.
he did all IN his power to stop the train,
ana succeeded IN doing 80 lust a. the engine
reached the child. Then it was discovered
that the child, white boy about four years
Old. had been tied hard and fast TO the iron
rails, so that horrible death was sure. Inc
railroad men unbound the little Fellow ana
took him on to Augusta. There Is some sus-
pIciOn as TO the parties who attempted this
dlabOlical crime. II discovered they should

part. and IN which q number OF GOrdOn's
men were captured. the GeOrglans] got to
fighting among themselves while they were

were fired into the unarmed mass which

vision must surely know something Of such an
event. The story Of the prisoners fighting
among themselves Is so very improbable that,
if there Is any truth as to the firing into them.
lt must have been wantOn act, contrary to
all dictates Of humanity and in violation of
the laws of war. There was so much of this
sort Of thing done by the Federals during the
