We announce with iegrt tho deecaae of Kdward Smith Tennent, M. D., a member of tho humter (rawd, and another victim and martyr of the de-sperate b'ht at ckoeseionville. 4 In this memorable contest, whic'j for its unealcula- ting gallantry against crida, ns well as for its results in . " defence of tbe city,' will long be kent Iretth in our local ' annals and recollections, be received a wound ia the h g, , which malted in supervening erysipelas of n virnlcut - form, terminating lotally on the 24th last. Dr. Tennent was an aclif e and E3atoug meiabrr of tbe Samter ljuard from tbe re-crganiztion of the corp, and waa in service almost constantly Irptn XovrmUr, . 1860, to tbe time of his wound. - He was of singularly reserved and retiring habits, ar.d was consequently known tb few beyond the limits of buVinrn and necc oary ssoeiation. lie enjoyed and retained-the confi b nee aud esteem ol the few who were admitted to intimate acquaintance. ' He was Oacroduate of tbe, Booth Carolina Coile-go of the class of 1838, a claa which is well represented id service in this war, and in honorable poaitiors. , - Ckas. Courier. Dr. Tennent died at sfariou Court- House, S. C, on the 24th lost., at the residence of his father-in-law, John A. Taylor, Era., of this town. He was a native of South Carolina, and bad been for many years a resi dent of Charleston, but having married in Wilmington, be bad made many friends here, by whom be was highly : esteemed. He was, as stated by tbe Cone, very iiniot -and reserved in bis habits, - - VTi ekak a rumor of a skirmish but week between Captain Ward's Cavalry and a forca of the enemy, coq. siating of both cavalry an artillery. Captain Ward killed some five or six of the enemy and inada some . prisoner. We regret to learn that be suffered a loss of some three men killed. We have bceg unable to obtain $vy particulars, but believe that the affair took place cm Saturday or Friday, on the borders of Joneyad Ons- low counties. ' - - . .
