Mr: Schiff describes the sensation as verv unpleasant indeed, and as confined al most entirely to his head which felt very much as if it had been struck with a narumer. lie says it was fully three hours before he entirely recovered from the shock. The colored men were similarly affected, though not so severe ly snocKea. They were all only about forty or fifty feet from the tree. Succumbed t Superior Circumstance It is a hard thing to "keen a workiner- man down," but our Columbia corres pondent, usually so prompt with his re ports of anything interesting, flopped on the 13th, and up to the present time has failed to get in his report of the pro ceedings. Whether this is because he is a soldier and marched too hard on that day, or whether, because in the demon stration of his hospitality he persisted in too often proving to the Hornets' Nest Biflemen that "it wasn't pizen," is not for us to say, and it would not be kind in us to say, even if we knew, see ing that he has been again belated. But so he has, and after stating that he went to Augusta Thursday, on an excursion witn a parcel 01 Columbia college girls, we merely point to the following from the Augusta News : "The saddest thins of the entire riav consists in the fact that Col, W, H, Fa ber, who is chief engineer of the excur. sion party from Columbia, got left on the boat, and had to foot it up to the locks. However, as the colonel is fleet of foot, he passed the Pinafore on the home stretch, and arrived an hour be fore the paity. One of tbe Welcome of the II. N. EC. Among the many marks of favor shown to the Hornets' Nest llillemen by the ladies, and citizens Of Columbia generally, while the company were in that ity, were two exceedingly hand some bouquets, accompanied by the following letter: Columbia, S.

Officers and Members of the tiomeis jyesz jujiemen: Gentlemex; I hope you will excuse the liberty which I take; but having had the honor of waiting on you, being porter of the Governor Guards, I de sire to extend to you the welcome of the colored people of our city, for we wish you to know that, though colored, we are- glad to : welcome our white . friends from other places. As a token', of our respect and high esteem, please accept the accompanying bouquets, from myself and several ladies. Again, gentlemen, asking you to excuse the liberty which I take, I am, V ery respecttully Your obedient servant Gilbert M. Bynum.

It is not often, with all our advan tages in this, respect, thajt the people of. Charlotte have an, opportunity Of hear ing such an entertainment as the Men delssohn Quintette Club, of Boston, will give at the opera house to-morrow night. They have been made to fully appreciate this fact by the appearance here of the celebrated company of mu sicians last winter an wno went rer joicing at the good fortune that had brought tnem mere, ana tnose,wno aia not. regretting thatitlveyxnisged such an elegant and rehned treat. As a con sequencej all the true lovers, of music will be at the'opersi botiSe to-morrow night, unless unavoidably detained. The club nave met witn enume ova tions throughout the South and have been repeatedly compelled to give repe titions of their concerts in many places Where.. they, had only. intended to play bncfe. ' Uhd chaining Mrs, Knowles, with her clear, sweet voice, is still with the company, and constitutes one of the leading attractions. Her own at tractions, coupled with the fact that she is the wife of the captain of one of the military companies or noswra wmcn ex tended generous hospitalities to the Southern military during visits there since the war, have been the occasion of unusual compliments to her on the part, or several military companies m the South, The whole company are genial and refined in manners, talented and cul tured musicians of long experience, and give an entertainment wnicn is eieva-mg-in its character and enjoyable to all lovers of harmony.

Jenkins and his bride ar rived in the city yesterday afternoon and took rooms "at the Central Hotel. rfter a short stay in Atlanta they re turned to the home of ex-State Treasurer Jenkins, in Gaston county, where they remained until yesterday afternoon. Miss Maggie T ucker, of Kaleigh. ar rived in the city a day or two since. and is the guest of Miss Annie Jones. Judge Fowle, who is expected in the city for the 20th, will be accompanied by his daughters, Misses Maggie and Mattie. They will be the guests of Dr Thos. J. Moore. Mr. A. L. Smith, one of the attend ants at the marriage' ofJMr. John Orr, in Columbus, Ga., returned yesterday morning. The remainder of the party went to Macon tor a snort visit. We find the following in the Colum bia correspondence of an Augusta pa per: "There will be a grand picnic at the Scheutzenplatz to-day, given by Mrs. Shiver to the lady visitors from the Empire State and North Carolina." Also, from the same source as the above, this: "An elegant German was given last night at the residence of Mrs. Shiver, to Miss May Shober, an immensely popular visiting belle from the Old North State." Miss Shober will be in Charlotte on the 20th. The young men who went to Colum bia were so chaimed with the young men they met down there that they have invited a number of the Columbians to come up p,n the 20th. Three or four are certainly "expected. There will be quite a number or visi tors at the annual ball on the night of the 20tb, which will be a very elegant affair. . , The ball on the night of the 20th will be followed by a German at the Central Hotel, which will probably be the last of the season, . . ( Anotber Swindling Device. - a . . . . i . It is hot amiss for us to warn our peo ple against another swindling device which is just now out, and which, we see, by our. exchanges, is being played successfully upon unsuspecting people, all over the country. "R. V. Kings-, well," of San Francisco, writes a letter, for instance, to a man in Charlotte, tell ing him that a stranger, named so and so, died at his boarding house on. such a day, and that as ' he (Kingsweil) has no means of learning who his relatives are, except by an envelope in his pocket addressed to the person in Charlotte' to whom Kingswell writes, he (Kingswell) supposes that the dead man's effects iroperly belong to this man in Char otte the names being the same. But and here is where the swindle comes in the stranger owed his landlord $30 for board when he died, and that if this amount is forwarded, the dead man's gold watch and chain, seal ring, gold sleeve buttons and studs, together with a sole leather trunk the contents of which are unknown, will be shipped immediately to the party remitting. Otherwise the property will be kept the customary time and then sold for what thev will bring. . .Letters ot - -tnis sort are Deing sent broadcast ' all . over the country, and doubtless Mr. "Kingswelir is reapura a rich harvest. We have not heard that any of our readers have been address ed in this way but some of them may. be. , At all events this is to warn them; that the whole business is a gigantic fraud and that if any of them are , so irerdant as to send ;'$30 to Mr. "Kings- weli" his interest m .them will be at an end. cviuc'ii'-x '" , Maurice's (Jopel Tableau On the night of June 2d lour people will have an oDDortunitv Of Seeing Prof. Maurice's Gospel Tableaux! being a se ries of brilliant pictures illustrating ma ny scenes , and incidents in: the life of Christ.
