S. c.. Nov. 2S.-Anderson has been crowded
today, the attraction being the promise Of
DR.. Leo, travelling medicine man, to make
u cripple from rheumatism walk without
help. The man selected was n factory en-

months. Several local physicians examined
him, md pronounced the case infiammatory
rheumatism. After n vigorous application
of some Indian medicine, the man walked
with ease only limpng slightly. The siard

1hiS. .s"riiuy .occurrcd about twelve miles
-esperate chtrncters of that neghborhood
1, seized wagon team with three bales of
cotton aud made away with the same.
A posse of about twenty-five rcsolutc and
determined men, headed by Robert s.
Scruggs, was soon in hot pursuit of the fugi-
tlYct, who were overhauled within n mile on
Two Of this pace when IL fierce battle took
place. The Goodies fought like tigers, and
although one of them is Thought to have been
shot through and through by Remington
rifle, yet ho succeeded, with his brother, i'll
making his escape upon the back of very
!icct horse belonging TO one of the pnrsucrs.
The pursuing party was unhurt, although
ono of them narrowly escaped, bullet
passing through his clothes.
y young man named jolly was with the
Goodies when they we-o founG, unh was ar
rested. lie disclaims any knowledge of the
robbery. Nothing further has been learned
of the whereabouts OF the dcspcradoes.
When last seen .hey were firing rapidly from
the backs of their flying steeds.
The horse which was carried off (a very
valuable saddle horsc) was fouEd late this
afternoon by Capt. Tislalc. The animal
had been wounded by II pistol shot, and
doubtless. when they found that he could be
of no further use to them. the robbers left
him, aud i, is supposed hat they swan the
river above here aud are now somewhere in
hiding amongst the dense forests near its
shore. The posse is still on the outlook,
and it is confidently expected that the dcs-
peradoes will be captured, although a stub
born resistance may be made Tile State.
