Rumors were current on the streets yes
terday that Oen D H Hill, of the Southern
Home, had been arrested in South Carolina
for libel. The factors we have escertained
them, are that Lieut H H Benner, of the 18th
infantry, stationed at Yorkville, went to
Bethel Church, in York county, one day
last week, to arrest Gen Hill, he having un
derstood that the uenerai would deliver an
address at Bethel on that day. Oen Hill had
no appointment at the place for, that, occa
sion and, besides, was sick in bed at home
when Benner went with his poe to arrest
him. ' - The alleged libel was certain com
ments in the Southern Home upon the pre
sentment of the Grand Jarv of York, o '
Lieut Benner, for various offences, and par
ticularly for a gross insult offered by Ben
ner to a daughter of ex-Judge of Probate, 8
B HalL
The articles in question were written, we
are Informed, by Capt B A Shotwell, the
associate editor of the Home, who has noti
fied Benner of their authorship, and who
claims all responsibility in the matter.
Benner is the notorious Ku Klux hunter,
of whom many of our readers haye heard
and read.
Painful Accident A colored boy, aged
about 13 years, sustained a Very painful ac
cident yesterday -morning about U o'clock,
in Second Ward, on Hill street,1 'if we are
not mistaken. The name of the boy is
Charles Long. He was riding ' bareback
mule, and While going along the street in a
rapid, jolting trot, the mul suddenly shied;
and threw the boy to the ground. His left
shoulder was dislocated, and the left side of
his face and head were bruised and scratched
good deal. At last account! the youth
was resting tolerably easy, and it is- hoped
he will soon be well as eyer.

The Speaking Yesterday. The candi
dates for the Legislature, and Col E A Os
borne, our candidate for Superior Court
Clerk, addressed the people at the Court
House-yesterday. The crowd present was
much larger than was expected, and the
discussion passed off pleasantly. The speak
ing was opened by Dr Kerr, the indepen
dent republican candidate for the Senate.
His speech did not amount to much. He
declared himself opposed to the civil rights
bill, and in fayor of the settlement of the
public debt on the most equitable terms
possible. This is the Democratic platform,
but Dr Kerr said he was an independent re
publican, and inveighed against the Conser
vative party. He twitted the Conservatives
for having supported Horace Greeley, and
though he used a great many words, - the
above is about all of his speech.
Capt Waring followed Dr Kerr, and if
there was anything left of the doctor's
speech when Capt W got through, we don't
know what it was. There . are few, gentle
men in the State more thoroughly posted on
the political topics of the day than Capt
Waring, and his defence of the Conservative
party was a masterly one. Dr Kerr made a
feeble attempt At a reply, and after he had
finished, our candidate again knocked him
out of the ring. Dr Kerr is but a child in
the hands of his opponent.
Col Osborne was next called for, and came
forward. He spoke at considerable length,
and urged theuecessity for united action in
tbe coming battle. His appeal to the peo
ple to stick by the nominees, was a very ef
fective one, and the speaker was fre
quently applauded during the course of his
remarks.. Col , Osborne is u most efficient
and accommodating public officer, is popular
with every one with whom he is thrown in
contact, and will, of course, ;be re-elected to
the office which he now fills with so much
credit to himself and with such acceptabili
ty to the people, of .the county .. . .
JSol Reid. one of the nominees tot the
House, was next called to the stand, and
made an excellent speech. ' He reviewed the
course of the Republican party 'since it has
been in power, in' . scathing manner, ana
his arguments in favor of a change in the
administration of public affairs, were con
clusiye. Mr Reid is a . man - of excellent
sense, is a fluent speaker, and will make a
useful legislator.

Me$r! Editors ': It ma be expected that
I answer the note of Mr Guion, attorney
for M Childs, of this morning, ill 'that he
makes a direct issue bet een Col Childs and
myself in our interview of the 18th instant
The day after my election, as President of
the A, T & O R R, I addressed a letter to
Col Childs, at Columbia, S C, asking time
and proposing to execute individual notes
with ten per cent interest, notes fully guar
anteed, which he declined, but would com
promise, he wrote, with "full indemnity."
In answer I inquired of him the full scope
and signification of the indemnity required,
to which he gave no answer. On the 18th,
at his room, in the Central Hotel, I stated
to Col Childs that, as President of the road:,
I did not haye a dollar to offer him for his
judgment, and, indeed, the road was stiil in
the hands of the Receiver ; that I would n t
assume the duties or President unless some
satisfactory arrangement was made looking
to a controlling interest in his judgment,
and my purpoes in interviewing him at
that time, was in the interest of the gold
bond holders, and took that occasion to for
mally tender him, and through him, those
he represented, the cash value of his judg
ment, demanding a transfer of his claim to
tbe rights of the gold bond holders, which
he promptly declined, saying that he
"could do better." In reply I informed him
that I should take the necessary steps to en
force his compliance.
This is a plain, unyarnished statement of
facts, and I, therefore, am unwilling to be
lieve that Col Childs is a party to the special
pleading of his attorney. The question
arises, why this hitch ? Mr Guion inquires
is there a ring in tbe matter?
I reply, there is a ring of the friends of the
A, T A O R H to save it from those who
would devour it, and would ask is there a
lawyer on the fence?
Yours, &c,
