On Tuesday of this week, Con-
stable Charles II. Martin, accompa-
MED by Lang Gilliland, armed with
a warrant for one Wad Irby, colored,
who was charged with stealing coat
last fall, proceeded to the plantation Of
Mr.. Stegall, for the purpose Of arrest
ing him. He found his game and in
attempting to arrest him, he resisted
stoutly. In the scuffle he succeeded
in getting the middle finger OF Mr..
Martins right hand in his mouth, bit
ing him severely, which prevented Mr..
Martin from getting to his hip-pocket
for his pistol, for time, but he gave u
sudden jerk, and loosed his finger from
his mouth, anG the negro again made
an attempt to wrest the stick from the
hand Of Lang Gilliland, who had been
assisting Mr.. Martin, whcreupon, Mr..
Martin drew his pistol, and presenting
it at his head ordered him to desist, or
he would shoot him, but he paid no at
tention, and Mr.. Martin stepped back
a few steps and fired on him, striking
him in tleshy part of the hip, causing
him to loose his hold and fall. Mr.
Martin and Gilliland proceeded to ex-
anime the wound, but about that time
4 other negroes came rushing up, and
the officer not knowing their business,
drew his pistol and warned them to
stand back, as he would shoot the first
man who attempted to put his hands
upon him, as he had just one ball for
each Of them If an attempt was made
to harm him. Mr.. Martin says it look
ed rather squally for Il few moments,
but he succeeded in bringing in his
prisoner, having secured conveyance
for him. He was carried before JUS
tice GOssett, and after q preliminary
examination, committed to Jail at Pick
ems, whittier he was carried by officer
A. w. Folgcr.
Col. W. S. Pickens, from EQuali-

says that we erred in stating that Mr..
Davis, who killed Steve Austin. fled,
as he surrendered himself at once, and
went before the Judge in Greenville,
prepared to give a $30,O00 bond if it
was necessary, but the bond was put
at 5000, which he gave and returned
to his home. The negro had previous
to this affair made threats against Mr..
Davis, and on this occasion left his
plow handles and advanced on him to
the distance Of 80 steps, as was shown
by his tracks. and Davis then attempt
to go from him to the bottoms, where
he had started to work, but Steve kept
between him and the bottoms to the
distance Of over 200 steps, at which
place he stopped and warned Austin
not to come any farther, for he would
kill him and surrender if he did. Aus
