Fail are of the Stockholders' Meeting, The-meeting of the stockholders of the Charlotte, Colombia & Augusta Railroad, that was to have been held In Columbia last Wednesday, was a signal failure for want of ? a quorum. The Richmond & Danville syndicate owns 13,000 shares of stock, a majority of the shares, and it is entirely at their pleas ure whether a meeting shall or shall not be held. This syndicate can put its shares in its pockets and go on its way, and a meeting cannot : be held until Its shares are represen ted. So a stockholder tells us. Tbe meeting was adjourned until tbe 27th of July - ... ' Two Daakiag Raaawar- ' :.

Bruner and a Mr, Benton, a merchant at Matthews Station, had a difficulty Wednesday evening over a settlement, which resulted In a shoot ing scrape. Mr. Benton went to Dr Bruner for a settlement, when a dis pute arose and Bruner ordered him out of the house, telling him he was a d d rascal, whereupon Benton raised his fist, when Bruner knocked him down with a chair. Benton then drew a pis tol and fired at Bruner, the ball passing through the breast of Bruner coat. Bruner then got a shot gun and fired at Benton aa be was leaving the bouse, but the charge missed its mark. Benton continued down the road with his plstel eocktd, when . in descending a step he slipped and fell, the pistol being die- charged again, bat doing no damage. The coroner of ther county, who lives a mile off, is said to have been on hand within an hour after the affair, for busi ness purposes, but the corpse was not to be found. .
