1,ETTER FROM ROCK HILL.

jRocK HILL, December 13.-Our town is
yson to have another enterprise. Mr.. ). w.
Westerlund is building shuttle-block fac
tory, and will soon be at work. Besides
making shuttle-blocks he will make rims,
spokes and axe handles. In the manufac-
ture of the blocks, he will only use persim-
mon and dog-wood. While the factory will
not give employment to a large number OF
hands, it will give the~1armers an op-
portunity of disposing of quantity of USE
less wood.

The hunters had a fine time last week
killing rabbits. Every person, black and
white, little and big, that could borrow a
gun, went hunting. One colored man kill
ed forty-one rabbits in one day, and Mr..
Walter j. Moore killed sixteen partridges
at one shot. -,
sour merchants are complaining of dull
Zines, and upon top of this, poor collec-
I tions. One of the oldest merchants in our
town remarked a few days ago that he had
never seen business so dull in Rock Hill as
it has been the past Fall. The commercial
travellers say that business is dull through
out the entire State.
Rev. J. C. Kilgo, who has been in charge
of Rock Hill circuit the past year, leaves

cult have pr0spered and Mr.. kilgo has en-
deared himself to the members, who earn
estly hope that the Conference will return
him to them.
Candidates are plentiful, and there is lots
of handshaking going on. 1t is pity that
all cannot be elected.

ACCIDENTAL FIRE.


ION Monday evening last, about o'clock,
a small barn on Mr.. B. n. Moore's place,
near town, was burned by the result of ac-
cident. The barn is used by colored man
named Joe Franklin. At about the hour
named, his son, about II or IA years old,
went to feed the mule, takinga lamp, which
he set down in the door. 1t was either up
set or exploded, the boy don't know which,
igniting theroughness, which burned rapid
ly, and soon the building was in flames.
Joe saved his mule, but lost his supply of
feed for it, and Mr.. Moore lost well-con-
structed barn.

With this testimony the coroner's inquest
adjourned until the 14th !; but from the start
ling developments of the four last-named
witnesses it was the unanimous opinion of

demanding thorough investigation, and
as it appeared that conspiracy or combina-

With the fact of the horrible and unnatu-
raj murder of little John L. Good, on the
evening of the 3Oth ultimo, our readers are
already familiar. On the following morn.
ing Trial Justice J. P. Blair, of that neigh.
borhood, having been notified of the affair,
promptly repaired to the scene and organ
lied jury Of inquest composed of the fol-
lowing persons: D. w. Fowler, foreman,

, This jury, composed of good men of the
vicinity, Immediately applied themselves to
the task of attempting to ascertain the per-
petrators of the brutal deed and fixing the
responsibility of the death of the innocent,
unoffending child where it might properly
belong. Three sessions have been held
one on the 1st of this month, the day I'M
medfately following the murder; one on
the Sd and one on the 10th and although
nothing was developed at either OF these
sessions pointing directly to the guilty per-
sons. sufficient facts were ascertained to
warrant the arrest of four, and much tes-
timony, startling in its character, was elicit
ed. which led to the unearthing of band OF
negro desperadoes whose object was plum
dering and robbing, and which ends were
to be successfully accomplished even by
murder.
A large number of witnesses were exam
ined, the testimony of some being inmate
rial, and which we omit; but as leading up
to the astounding revelations of band or
ganized for rapine and robbery and the COM
mitment to jail of four, one Of whom confess
es to having committed this murder, impli-
eating as aiders and abettors the other three,
we print the testimony of the following

You will find occasion

not the stale, old-fash-

have you believe "Jones

Calhoun is,a city of shout 500 in
habitants, situated on the NJ, K. &
I. road, eight miles south of Windsor,
and contains In its Immediate vicinity
an inez;haustable. supply Iof timber,
coal, fire aud :patters clay, besides be-
ing surrounded by as fertile a country
as can be found ON the continent. There
is in the place five extensive pottery
factories, a, good saw mill, u furniture
manufae,ory, a numi,er of stores and
business houses, and in the immediate
vicinity seven coal mines in operations.
The people are thrifty and enterprise
ing, without a single idler in the COM
munity, and the surrounding country
furnishes an excellent trade in all
commodities. At present the people
are much excited over the; prospect of
the building of the st. Louis, Kansas
City and Colorado road, and will use
every effort to secure it's location at
this point, as they are confident its ia
cilities ought to furnish a very large
iDducement. But now the town is
without hotel or bank, both of which
are badly needed, and would prove
profitable investments if properly con-
Quoted. .sHf -"
Fine stock in horses, mules, cattle,
saeep and hogs are abundan, in this
vicinity, some of the largest breeders
in the country being located near the
town.
