Newberry, S. C., July 17th, 1879.
Messrs. Coppock & Johnson : •
Dear Sirs—I have been using the Emerson & Fisher Buggy I bought from you
as roughly I suppose as any one could. I had a fast horse, drove him at full speed,
sometimes with two grown ladies and myself in the buggy, and it is to-day worth all
the money I paid for it. I say the Emerson, Fisher Buggies will do.

Tho favorable reputation the Carriages have made in localities where they have
been used for several years bv Liv«rymer, Physicians, Farmers and others re-

New York, Nov. 6—The total
city vote for sheriff and county clerk
so far as completed gives for sheriff
Brown, 47,510; for county clerk,
Erhardt, 45,031 ; Grumbleton, 47,-

Middletown, N. Y., Nov. 6.—
In Sullivan county the republicans
elect Potts to the assembly by 539
majority ; Hill, sheriff, by over 1000.
It is probable that Madden, republi
can, for the senate, has 26,000 ma-
jority. VVaterbury, republican, tor
the assembly, in the second district
of Orange county has 130 majority.
New York, Nov. 6.—It is esti-
mated at the regular democratic
committee headquarters to-day that
Clarkson N. Porter, democrat is
elected lieutenant governor by 15,-
000 plurality at least. His majority
in New York and Kings county is
74.339, being the largest vote ever
received by any candidate except at
presidential election.
The estimate of the Albany Argus
this morning is that Porter's majority
exceeds 15,000.
An Albany special, signed by the
editor of the Evening Journal, siys,
"Cornell's plurality is over 35,000.
Our present figures make the major-
ity against Haskins less than 20,000.

is elected. The democrat state offi-
cers have privately given up most of
their ticket.
Minnesota.
St. Paul, Nov. 5.—The latest
advices and more careful capitula-
tions give a probably republican ma-
jority of 14,000. Returns from pre-
cincts casting neaily one-half of the
vote of the state, give Pillgbury, re-
publican, 16,825; Rice, democrat,
14,827 ; Giilman, for lieutenant gov-
ernor, 17,477; Barnum, 13,416; Von
Baumsch, for secretary of state, 17,
544; Borer, 13.946; Giilman having
lost about as many republican votes

will increase the majority to at least
12,000.
Wisconsin.
Milwaukek, Noy. 6.—Returns
from the interior of the stale are

ocrats, 66, republicans. 18.
Nebraska.
Omaha, Nov. 6.—No returns from

majority.

From the Galveston News.
Among the passengers from New
Oileans, landed by the Whitney yes-
terday, were a crowd of English im-
migrants, numbering, men, women
anil children, two hundred and seven.
They left the city at 2 :3o p. rn. by
the O. II. and H. road for their des-
tinxtious on the San Antonio mad,
'ist: New Philadelphia, Weimar,
Luling, Eagle Lake and San An-
tonio. It was universally remarked
by persons who saw them during
their short stay in this city, that thev
appeared to be a respectable and
well-to-do class of people. They
were received for the San Antonio
railroad company by Mr. Baker,
their local agent here, and are in
charge of Mr. Coyle, of Dr. Kings-
bury's agency abroad. Mr. Coyie
furnished a reporter of the News
with the fallowing statement;
The steamship Teutonia left Liv-
erpool October 9th, with two saloon
and two hundred and forty-seven
steerage passengers, two hundred
and twelve en route for Texas,
whither they were induced by the
agent ol G. H. & S. A. railroad in
London, Dr. Kingsbury. Many of
those embarking for Texas were peo-
ple of means, having purchased as
much as eight hundred acres of land
frcm Dr. Kingsbury, at London.
Among the steerage passengers was
a Mr. Holmes, a nephew of Sir
Robert Sales, Baronet, and a Mr.
Inman, son of the well known owner
of a New York and Liverpool
steamship line, who goes out to
western Texas to start a sheep
ranche. As soon as the Teutonia
arrived at New Orleans she was
boarded by a Mr. N. N. Sirelle, of
Dallas, who had an axe to grind ;
commenced running down the state,
and especially the lands along the
Sunset route, and said if the emi-
grants would find a green blade of
grass at Luling or New Philadelphia
he would stand an oyster supper;
that a crow would not fly over New
Philadelphia. Two families con-
cluded to return in the Teutonia. It
is such men as this that ruin our
Lone Star state and retard our pro-
giess. Colonel Pierce spends $3000
monthly, advertising Texas in Eng-
land, and when Kingsbury's emi-
grants arrive here they are induced
by other agents to worthless lands
elsewhere. Most of the passengers
are for Luling and San Antonio;
also some for New Philadelphia and
Eagle Lake.
It was learned from Mr. Baker,
agent, that there are fifty more Brit
ish immigrants due from New Or-
leans by to-day's steamer. Also,
that a party of 265 German emi-
grants are expected to at rive early
next week. He states that when
these have come there will have ar-
rived about one thousand foreign
immigrants at Galveston in the space
of three or four weeks.

Hearnb, Nov. v—The witnesses
in the Summerville case returned to-

the murderer gets another continu-
ance 011 account of the absence of
witnesses. Sandy Perry, a negro
and co-partner with Summerville in
the crime, is the party by whom the
prisoner proposes to establish his in-
nocence. Perry, who is about as
notorious as Summerville, his white
fiiend, went out scouting a month
ago to prevent going to court in or-
der to get this continuance. The
prisoner made affidavit that he could
prove by this Sandy Perry that he
(Summerville) did not kill Roberts.

FIRE IN DALLAS.
Clark House aud Buildiiig Adjoin
ing Burned.
Dallas Nov. 7.—Last night at
half past nine o'clock the alaim of
fire was giveti, and almost instantly
a bright light blamed up at the corner
of Pacific avenue and Lamar stteet.
It proved to be the Clark House,
which was in a blaze in a few min-
utes after the breaking out of the
fire. The old frame building went
like 4 flash, burning so rapidly that
a number of guests barely escaped
in their night clothes.
Officer Clemons and Mr. Marks
saved an old lady and two children
from burning, and after the building
was almost entirely enveloped iit
flames.
Miss Mollie Price dashed through
the flames in her night clothes, barely
escaping being burned alive. The
scene was horrible, and the crv that
there were others in the burning
building caused a thrill of horror to
run through the large'crowd that
had gathered. .
Mr. McWillie rushed up the steps
through smoke and flames and
snatched a sleepiug child from abed
and saved it.
Mr. G. W. Jones, the proprietor
of the house, managd to save him-
self, wile and two little sons, barely
escaping.
The only article Mr. Jones saved
was his trunk, containing part of his
clothing. His wife secured what
money they had. Everything else
was burned, including all his wife's
clothing, as well as a fine gold watch
and chain. The children's clothing
was destroyed ; all fhe furniture,bed-
ding and much of the clothing Of the
boarders was consumed.
The Clark House was completely
consumed and the building adjoin-
ing on Lamar street was considera-
bly damaged.
Col. Holland had an insurance on
the buildings for $1,300 in the
Queens Insurance Company, with
Kerfoot & Hereford, agent's $300
on the Clark House and $1000 on
the adjoining building.

The American Antiquarian.
An Illustrated Quarterly Journal de-
voted to early American history, Eth-
nology and Archasology, edited by Rev.
S. 1"). Peet, Clinton, Wisconsin.. Pub-
lished by Jameson & Morse, 164 Clark
street Chicago, Illinois. Price $2 per
annum.
This magazine is devoted to a very in-
teresting subject. It is well know that
there are many evidences Of an ancient
occupation of this continent, by a people
whose history has always been enveloped
in great mystery. New facts are, howev-
er, constantly coming to light, Which,
though strange and sometimes mysteri-
ous, are calculated to reveal something
of the prehistoric condition of America.
Travelers and explorers go to distant re-
gions of the east to examine the ruins of
Nineveh and Babylon, and in these burn-
ed cities find many interesting confirma-
tions of history; others also traverse fhe
frozen region of the Arctic Sea, to dis-
cover the northwest passage; but at our
very doors there are the tokens of a butt-
ed past, which deserves attention more
than these. It is the subject of Ameri-
can Antiquarian to so solicit facts and
direct enquiry that the obscure history of
our country shall be made known, and
the problem of man be ultimately solved.
The editor, Rev. S. D. Peel, who has
devoted many years to this subject, and
the contributors, are all gentlemen who
have high rank in the scientific world.
It is one of the most readable magazines
published, and we are happy to commend
it as worthy of support.
