An Heroic Act.
How Charley II. Jones Killed Yankee
Soldier and Defied His PurSuerS.

EDITOR MANNING T1MEs:-Lieuten-
ant Charles II. Jones, of Sumter, who
died recently, needs at our hand more
than the usual notice. Charley Jones,
as he was familiarly known, was rais-
ed in Sumter county, and lived IN the
town of Sumter most of his life after
early manhood. He married Miss
Lizzie David about the year 1852, and
raised a large family of children. In
the early days OF the late war Charley
entered the service of his country by
joining Capt. Webb's company of the
7th Cavalry Regiment of S. c. v, and
by pluck and energy equaled by very
few men of his day, won the rank Of
lieutenant in his company. Charley
was known throughout the regiment,
and was always desired by superior
officers when any daring expedition
was to be carried out.
In April, 1865, Lieut.. Jones, with a
detachment of his company, was sent
to our town to look after the raid Of
General Potter. Arriving here in the
morning, and being tired and hun
cry, he dismounted his squad,
hitched his horses under the shed in
the rear of the old hotel, then owned
by Capt. Jos. H. Stukes, and told
ais men to get something to eat as
best they could. Having been told
by reliable scout that Potter was
some distance away, he and Mr.. ". A.
Brunson, of Darlington county, went
to the house of Mr.. ". J. Norris, and
while the good lady was preparing
for them something to eat, the alarm
was made, "Ihe Yankees are at the
'gate!'
Instead of running to the rear, as
some would have done, they ran to
the front. Jacob Ballard (col'd) was
seen riding in the midst of the yam
KEGS on Jones's horse. Jones at once
took in the situation and made for
his horse, the yankees crying out
Surrender! surrender " As Jake
went off the horse on one side Jones
mounted from the other, and said,
"Ill show you how to surrender"
and as he balanced himself on his
horse he took deliberate aim at the
nearest yankee to him, and shot him
dead from his horse, caught hold of
the reins of the bride, and leading
the horse of the dead yankee rode off
with him, turning in his saddle and
firing back upon them as they chased
him in his retreat. The yankees ust d
their carbines freely, and perfect
shower of shot followed Jones up the
street. After crossing the branch
near Mr.. Clarke's place Jones stopped

promise to protect the masses, which
is known as revenue tariff; yes, and
these tariff vocations would, like an
inflated cheap currency, be inundated
with cheap labor at the expense OF
others that would have to contract,
because not backed by a tariff. law.
Even where labor is scarce a tariff vo-
cation would override the agricultu-
raj, because the one is protected by
law and the other not. Free trade
alone can make these internal i'm
provement banks contract so as toput
all yocations upon the same footing.
Free trade is but the pioneer Of reel
procity. Let the country sleep upon
her quiet, spotless, and undisturbed
bosom, and then so equally will labor
be distributed amongst the different
vocations in life that our business
symmetry would not only be beauti-
full to behold, but our people would
become so happy and contented that
they would not only worship so just
and honest a government, but they
would also bless with their happy
hearts the men who had the patriot
ism to set them at liberty. Free trade
would also ensure an economical gov
ern"cent with the addition of direct
taxation), as the people would then
see every dollar which is now hid BY
the protective tariff. Right here l
would digress, and applaud that inde-
pendency of character which would
Weld to an after conscientious con-
viction, rather than adhere to for
mer error.
This rivalship thus commenced be-
tween the two sections within the
same circle of business, is not only
destined to engender strife, Jealousy,
envy, and enmity, but must also in
crease the array of labor against cap
ital in proportion as the South ad-
yances successfully on the line of in
ternal improvements. The North is
to-day feeling the weight Of labor
against capital, because of her having
pushed internal Improvements too far
ahead of other vocations within her
midst. Hence her people combine
against each other-labor against cap
ital. Every man taken from any one
vocation, to it's injury, and added to
another that already more than doub-
ly preponderates, produces dissatis-
faction in the one instance, and jeal-
ousy in the other. Upon such foun-
dations combinations are erected
against capital. Though internal
improvements are at their infancy in
the South, they have produced quite
dissatisfaction enough (by arraying
labor against capitaD; for the basis of
such combinations as are alarming,
indeed. Now, when the South shall
have pushed internal Improvements
to the same extent that the North has
q fear the country cannot stand the
pressure), these United States Of
America will then feel the need of her
Calhoun and Clay When labor
raises its angry head against capital,
the duty of every patriotic man is to
quiet and to soothe, rather than to
add fury to the storm, that our coun-
try may never have cause to say Of

Lied like victim, to my death III go,
And dying, bless the handethat gave the

who was always in need of transportation
One night he was called out of bed by one
of the profession, who informed the colonel
that he, the editor, was broke, and that he
had received telegram from home an
nouncing family sickness, and that he was
expected to leave on the first train. The
colonel took out a map and saw that the
price of a ticket to the point of destination
was about .65 He handed the editor a
two dollar bill, explaining that he had no
blanks As the editor left the colonel
thought of him in every way except the
complimentary way, and hoped he would
never look on the mans face again.
Two years later bill was before the leg

had an interest. He was. there to put the
measure through. In casting about for
assistance he came upon the country edi
tor whom he had favored and asked him if
he could be of any service The editor
turned in, and through his influence the
measure was passed. ''It was a lesson to

mucilage bottles, spools of tape, seals, a
milestone, pair OF scissors, letters and
contracts filed and not filed, old and new
calendars, blotting pads and so on. The
office looked as though it had not been
busted or swept in a month, and yet check
books and files filed with bonds and mort

A Drastic Remedy.

An amusing case has just been tried
at Kasan, in Russia. A woman of the
name of Outchakine was summoned be-
fore the judge On the charge of beating
a cousin of hers, named Kniazef. But
the accused had complete answer to
the Indictment.
"My cousin gave me leave in the pres
ence of witnesses" she said to the judge,
''to trounce him well if ever he broke
the solemn promise he gave me at
church, to give up smoking altogether"
Kniazef copld not deny this. His
austere relative had come upon him un-
awares when enwreathed in cloud of
smoke. The judge acquitted the pris-
oner, but admonished her not to lay on
80 hard in tho future.
