Messrs. Mccully, Cathcart & Co. have
determined to handle groceries and plan
tation supplies exclusively in future, and
are now laying in an immense stock for
the fall and winter trade. They have in-
creased their warehouse facilities, and by
buying in such large quantities and for
cash, they are enabled to meet any COM
petition. They will also keep O choice
stock of cannod goods. They have also
rented the lot in the rear of their store,
and will open wagon yard for the use of
their friends and customers. This is one
of Anderson's most progressive and reli-
able firms, and those who trade with them
may rest assured of always getting the
best of goods at the lowest prices. Look
out for their new advertisement next

| Some ten years or more since Allen
Barksdale was killed in this County, by
having his head split open with an axe,
and the killing was at the timo attributed
to Mrs. Gray, and she was, as matter Of
form, arrested and indicted for murder
but the opinion was so general that the
killing was done in self-defence that the
case was never brought to trial, and the
indictment was mol. pressed. New evidence,
it is claimed, has been discovered, which
puts new phase upon the case, and on
last Monday, Robert Gray, the husband
of the woman formerly arrested, was
committed to Jail to await his trial for
murder at the next Term of our Court.
It is now claimed that Robert Gray did
the killing, and that it was murder. The
case will be an interesting one, owing to
the different phases it has assumed.
