prising open the jail door with a crowbar, and from statements of other prisoners, it appears that a party of some five or six outside co-operated with, and armed them with revolvers after they got out. Up to this time they have not been recaptured. A sad accident occurred yesterday in the neighborhood of Amherst C. H. It appears that the son of W. E. Coleman, of that place, a youth, together with two other boys, were out gunning, and while stopping to rest were seated on a fence, when the gun of one of the boys was accidentally fired off, and the contents lodged in the body of young Coleman, who was instantly killed. The Queen Sisters, from Charleston, S. C., have been performing here during the present week, and in justice to them I will state that their performances are highly appreciated by our community. The Palmetto Band, by which they are accompanied, add greatly to the interest of their exhibition. They will probably visit Richmond before they return home. O. K.
The Daily Dispatch: December 21, 1861., [Electronic resource], The late fire in Charleston--L and Insurance. (search)
The late fire in Charleston--L and Insurance. The disaster of the 11th and 18th of December, at Charleston, S. C., continues to be the all-absorbing topic of conversation in that city. The wild guesses as to the amount of property destroyed which were at first prevalent have given way before close and cool calculation, and we are now able to present some reasonable views of the amount of losses and insurance. It is estimated that the loss in Real Estate is about $3,500,000.

Add to these liabilities the unearned premiums on the re
consent to the reduction of hours of labor in that establishment, and to continue the same rate of wages as paid before the reduction was made. Homicides have become an every-day occurrence in Washington. Hardly a day occurs that two or three murders do not take place. Jeremiah Skinner, of the well-known firm of Wm. Skinner & Sons, ship- builders, of Baltimore, died in that city on the 12th instant. The Central Railroad Bank and Planters Bank of Savannah, Ga., have each contributed $1,000 for the relief of the Charleston sufferers. Both houses of the Georgia Legislature donated on Saturday, the 14th inst., the sum of one hundred thousand dollars for the relief of the sufferers by the late fire at Charleston, S. C. In its last issue the Milledgeville (Ga.) Federal Union announces the suspension of its daily paper. The cause assigned is the want of patronage. Montgomery (Ala.) papers report further attempts on the part of incendiaries to fire that city.
The Concert, at the United Presbyterian Church, on Thursday night, for the benefit of the Maryland volunteers, was very numerously attended, and everybody was delighted with the performances. We learn that another concert will be given in a short time, by the same accomplished musicians, for the benefit of those who suffered by the late calamity in Charleston, S. C.
