Herrick, who former y resided in Williamston, although the . duties of the position have been adminis? tered by Thomas Crymes, up to the time of the new appointment. The ladies should not forget the recep? tion at the Sewing Machine Emporium of Mr. C. A.

' The holiness meeting in the Methodist I Church is still going on, and will contin ue through the week. The Church is crowd? ed to its utmost capacity every night, and the morning and afternoon services are well attended. Many_persons have been converted, and a number have been sanc? tified. The interest in the meeting does not abato, and before it ends many more will no doubt have been brought into the Church. The pastors of the various Churches in the city have arranged for a Thanksgiv? ing service, to be be held in the Baptist Church on next Thursday, 26th inst, at II o'clock a. m. Rev. J. W. W?lling, of the Methodist Church, will preach the sormon. The merchants and business men generally of the city have agreed to close their respective places of business for the day.

Elias McGee, of Corner Township, had his gin house, together with his gin, press, a two-horse wagon, about five bales of cotton, and the seed of thirty bales of cotton, destroyed by lire on the night of the 9th inst. The fire was discovered about 12 m., but it bad made sucb a head? way that it was impossible to save anv thing in the building. Several adjacent buildings were also consumed. Col. Mo Gee attributes the burning to matches having been accidentally dropped in the cotton. Tbe dwelling house, together with all its contents, of Mr. R. R. Keaton, who resides near Ebenezer Church, in Martin Township,, was destroyed bv fire on last Thursday. Mr. Keaton and family were absent from home at the time, he being in this city selling some cotton. All of his outbuildings, except his corn crib, were also burnt. Tbe cause of tbe fire is un? known, though it is supposed to have been accidental. Mr. Keaton is a worthy, industrious young man, and tbe loss is quite a misfortune to him. Last Friday morning, between 4 and 5 o'clock, the large two-story dwelling house of Mr. H. 0. Herrick, situated at the extreme ond of MoDuffie street, just outside of the city limits, was entirely destroyed by fire. The members of the household were aroused just in time to escape from the burning building. They saved only tbe clothing on their backs and a few piecesof furniture. The firo is supposed to have been accidental. Mr. Herrick estimates bis loss at about $3,700, on which there was insurance to tho amount of $2,800. Mr. Joseph B. Rogers died at his resi? dence in Williamston, on Saturday last, after an illness of two weeks from Pneu? monia, aged about fifty-five years.

During bis business life ho was eminently successful, and accumulated a handsome property. He was a man of generous and noble impulses, which made him many friends. His remains were interred In tho Methodist Cemetery on Sunday, after appropriate funeral sorvicos, conducted by Rev. Samuel Lander, D. D., and at? tended by many relatives and friends of the deceased. The Columbus Buggy Company, which is represented in this city by Cunningham & Fowler, are sending out to their cus? tomers a pretty advertising picture, enti? tled "Columbus presenting to tbe King and Queen of Spain trophies secured in the New World in 1492." The picture represents the King and Queen ?n the throne, with Columbus in frout of them, J and behind him a Columbus Buggy, which is surrounded b}r tbe Royal at- { tendants and a numbor of Indians. Tho Columbus Buggy was introduced here about eight years ago, aud since then a large number of them havo been sold in tho County. The Compauy manufacture only one class of work, and every buggy is guaranteed to bo as represented. Messrs. Cunningham it Fowler say they have never yet had one word of complaint from a purchaser. It is stylish, durable and easy running, and is sold nt a low price. Wc cheerfully give space to tho com? munication of Messrs. Gray and Hill house this week. It is justice to Mr. Bowen to say that before theirarlicle was banded in be called at our office and in? formed us that wo wore mistaken in two particulars in the report of the shooting at his houso. The colfin \va3 found in bin yard on May 9th, and on the previous night the windows of his house were shot iuto by unknown parties. Tho facts were made public at the time. The other mis? take was as to the time of finding tho noto of warning, which should havo been staled us on the morning arter the last shooting, instead of tho morning pre? ceding it. In our article last week we did not attempt to state who did the shooting, and we have no disposition to do more than unqualifiedly to condemn the shoot? ing, and to insist that ov ery effort shall be made to ferret out aud punish tho guilty parties, whoever they may bo.

Editor: In your issue of 12th inst. was published in the local columns, under the heading of "A Dastardly Out? rage," an account which has tended more or less to stigmatize our neighborhood and prejudice public opinion against two of its young men. We are satisfied that your reporter has not been actuated by partisan motives, but the account as given was certainly obtained from a source antagonistic to the two gentlemen whose names are made to appear so prominently. We, therefore, beg leave in the absence of the parties to show that the shield has another side. It is not our purpose to vindicate wrong, and at the outset we submit that if we be? lieved any such an "outrage" as is charged as having been committed against Mr. Bowen, there would be no citizens who would more promptly respond to a call to preserve the public tranquility and bring the perpetrators to punishment than we would. We condemn lawless? ness in any shape, and have no spmpathy with malefactors of any kind. It is a notorious fact that W. J. Bowen has rendered himsolf so unpopular, not less by his political standing than by his un won table and malicious slander against his neighbors, (of whom there are few who acknowledge themselves on good terms with him,) that it would be difficult to saddle any particular person with guilt in reference to the charge, and we, there? fore, beg that the public will suspend judgment until further developments, which will appear after judicial investi? gation. It is true there is no congeniality be? tween W. J. Bowen and the two young men, but we are prepared to say that in no event would Wado Chaniblee or Sam Hillhou8e be guilty of a cowardly act. And now for a plain statement of facts: This coffin that reference has been made to was found, or said to have been found, in bis yard not far from 1st of last May, and has been kept carefully, under lock and key until tho present time, and is now paraded for tbe first time to mako this "Dastardly Outrage" appear as gross as possible. Now in regard to tho note signed "Wado and Sam," does it seem reasonable that any sane mind would have written such a note and signed their name to an article which would have been proof positive of their guilt. It would have been worse than child's play. To sum this thing up, it is tbe opinion of tho neighbors that the whole thing is a fabrication, and that W. J. Bowen is the perpetrator of the only crime which he alleges has been committed against him? self. It has boon known for months that "Sam" and "Wade" contemplated a change of residence this Fall, and the fact of their absence cannot be construed as an evasion from arrest or of guilt. They left Anderson County without tho knowl? edge of a warrant having been issued against them. It has only a short time since that the whole neighborhood was summoned at midnight to make an arrest of parties from Georgia who had sur? rounded Bowen's house to do him or his son some injury. Some escaped while others were placed under bond to keep the peace. Sam'x. Gray, Joe Hillhouse. Sleep .
