A special from Columbia S. C. ,
says there is trouble between the races
near Bamberg, Barnwell couty. On
Saturday some negroes went fishing in
a boat owned by a white man, after
they had been ordered not to use it.
When the negroes returned they were
set upon by the whitesand beaten. In
the fight a white man was severely in
inred. On Tuesday night Robert
K0arseand a number ot inenas wenr
to the house of the negro who appear
ed to be the leader of the party. The
negroes were in ambush near the house,
and fired on the whites, wounding
eight of them, none dangerously,
however: The negroes then fled. , It
is feared there will be more trouble
over the matter.
The Greensboro Patriot says:
About three weeks ago a party .of reve
nue officers who were returning from a
raid in Stokes and Surry, were ambus
caded in what is known as the Smith
settlement, in Stokes county, and fired
upon by blockade distillers. One of
the party .was Mr. Eugene Murrow, of

Murrow's horse was wounded and
reared and fell back on him. Mur
row was sick when he left 10 go on the
raid and , after being injured by his
horse falling on him, was brought here
on the train- His symptoms develop
ed into typhoid fever and a few days
later he was taken to his home where nu
died yesterday evening. TJiis morn
ing Dr. Charles Glenn held a post
mortem examination and found that
Mr. Murrow's death was caused by the
Injuries received in the encounter with
jhe illicit distillers. .. '
