Mf moirs of Gen. Wm. Baller. The author, T. P. Slider, E~q, has kindly sent to this office a neat little pamphlet entitled " Memoirs of Gen. William Butler, including a Brief J . Sketch of his Father and Brother, [ who fell in the Revolution at Cloud's Creek, Edgefield District, S. C." In ; addition to . the Sketch proper of | Geo. Wm. Butler, these Memoirs con tain incidents, anecdotes and events connected with the early history of J Edgefield District which the youth of our county especially ought to read. Among other. Edgedeld ni mee occur ring -in this volume, we find the Wat 'son and the Ryan families prominent gem of English composition Copies can be had of Mr. St. J. Bland or at G. L. Penn & Son's Store. Gen Wm. Butler was the Grand Father of Senator Butler and Col. Wm. But! of our county. Since our last issue the State elec tion has boen held in Ohio, and th result waa a Republican victory by plurality of over 17,000 votes. If this were the presidential year, this defeat of the Democratic party would be Of some significance, as indicating the popularity or unpopularity of President Cleveland's administration AB it is, however, the oil'year in poli tics, Ohio has simply returned to the mire of republicanism. And now that thia agony is over, all eyes are direct ed to New York ; and upon the pros p?cta there, the New York Sun speaks aa follows: " Now that the Ohio election is over and its effect upon the minds of our citizens has been produced, we are oil prepared to take a distinct and satis faetory view of the prospect here in New York. "We know that the Democratic ticket headed by Hill and Jones ought to be elected, and we believe that it will be. The reasons for this faith are simple and cogent. " The Democracy of this State is thoroughly united. There is no fae tiona quarrel which diminishes the Democratic voto. That vast number of.citizens who last fall voted for Blaine, have come back, and are among the most enthusiastic support ere of Hill and Jones. This is a fact of the highest moment. ,J Moreover, a great service has been rendered to Governor Hill by the at tacks which his enemies have now made. They have accused him of having had discreditable dealings with Mr. Tweed some fifteen years ago, and a great display of illusive evidence has been made to sustain this accusation. Only yesterday a num ber pf journals that oppose his elec tion devoted a great portion of their apace to fae similes of checks and re ceipts which are supposed to support it. A more extravagant, malicious, and unjustifiable assault was nev r made upon the good name of a public officer. There is nothiug in Mr. Hill's history, either fiftsen years ago or since, which should lead any patriotic citizen to withhold his friendship from him. There were many men, Republicans as well as well as Demo crats, whom, in the days of his power, Mr. Tweed was wont to use for hiH own purposes; but heuever used Mr. Hill. As a member of the Democrat ic party Hill supported those meas ures which the party deemed wine and necessary ; and among them there were at times measures which Mr. Tweed favored and desired ; but in all of these cases there is not a single instance in which Mr.Hill acted from a corrupt motive j or supported any measure of Tweed's for any other rea BO'a than his own conviction that it was for the public interest. This is demonstrated by a careful study of his whole record ; and the people who really look into these things are sure io be convinced of it. The reaction from this attempt of.his enemies will undoubtedly prove of very great ad vantage to Mr. Hill. In fact, it forms one of the reasons why we expect his election." S S. Tho jvoos and Cornier thinks (h matter of ? (Beer? of th? State acUnj as counsel in criminal ca*w?, of fomucl consequ' nee, that it speaks out as /ol lows : " This matter is so important tba it would not be out of the way fo the State Convention to notify all can didates for nomination for; the offia of Lieutenant Goyernor that they an expected to keep out of the Crimina Courts, as lawyers, phould they be come the coriHti! utionat successors o the Governor. They who are no willing to assent to this, for the sake '.f maintaining the dignity of the of fice and of keeping it beyond reproach are not likely to-be nominated by ? Damocratic Convention. We say fur ther that, while thc objections are noi of the same class, we think it unwise and ill-judged for Senator Butler tc take part in the defence of the Edge Geld prisoners, or of any other per sons accused of violating the crimina' laws of the State. It is almost im possible for jurors to avoid being in Silenced by their knowledge and ap predation of Gen. Butler's position, and that influence and position should not be cast into the scale either in fa vor of a criminal or against him." Still Another State Ticket. Columbia Cor. Augusta Chronicle. COLUMBIA, Oct. 17.-The tempora ry suspension ol' the "new deal" cry does not prevent political predictions of future results. The following tick et is said to be among the possibili ties: Governor, Hon. John Teter Rich ardson; Lieutenant Governor, Hon. D. S. Henderson ; Secretary of State, Hon. J. N. Lipscomb; State Treasu rer, Hon. W. C. Coker; Comptroller General, Hon. W. E. Stoney; Attor ney General, Hon. Stonyarm Wiluon; Adjutant and Inspector-General, A. M.Manigault; Superintendent of Ed ucation, Hon. A. Coward. Rumors are afloat in some political circles that a foreign mission will be tendered a prominent South Carolinian at an early day, and that this appointment will result in the promotion of others now holding high and responsible State positions. This inlormation comes so direct and from so reliable ?. source that I am almost tempted to name the positions and the men, but I have learned from experience that it is better to withhold names when there is any doubt of the correctness of the information, and, as I have not been able to have these rumors con firmed, I only mention them in agen eral way. RICHLAND Earthquake at Sanders ville. MACON, GA , October 17.-A spe cial to the Macon Tclegragh from Sandorsville says there was an earth quake shock there this evening, at 5:20, lasting about ten seconds.

Opposing thc Kev. J. L. [fl. Carry. RICHMOND, October 17.-Th? Catho lie Visitor of this city of to day calls upon the Government of Spain in the name of Virginia Catholics to refufie to receive as Minister from this Government to the Court of Al fonso the Rev. J. L. M. Curry, recent ly appointed Ly the President to that station, because of his bitterness against the Catholics, as shown in a speech of Mr. Curry delivered in this city on May 12, 1870, on his return from Italy, where he went to establish ? Protestant mission. lu his speech he referred to Romanism as a " cor roding canker eating ont the public conscience and emasculating every thing like spiritual life," and said Rome waa worse than pagan. The Datkolics are bitter in feeling against Dr. Curry.

Colored voters in large numbers vote r the Democratic ticket, and Prohib . tionists and Germans in large nun a hers voted for the Republican cand 3 dates. ; This'is reversing the usn? j order of things, but, in the North, th white vote is more important by fa j than the colored vote, and the ne' I recruits were not sufficient to-conni ? erbalance the losses by change c front. There was a confident expects tion that the Prohibitionists who ah I stained from voting for Dr. Leonar . would join tbe :Democrats by way c avenging themselves ..pon thc Repub , beans. The calculators were at faull , however, and, iu spite of the heavi ness of the Prohibition vote, whicl was expected to be drawn mainl; from the Republican ranks, the Demo crats were unsuccessful. There will be no lack of explana tiona and excuses. The weather wil come in for a part of the blame, ant the lavish us? o? money by the Re publicans will be alluded to in ni gentle terms. But the Democrats ar* usually readier to brave the weathe: . than the Republicans are, and tin Democrats, it must be confessed, us< at elections as many dollars-silvei or otherwise-as they can beg or bor row. The ruddy tinge imparted t( the canvass by Mr. Sherman was noi sufficient to color the result. Then is something beyond and behiud these things, and it is wisest to state il frankly in order that tho rock ahead may be avoided at future elections Our conviction ip that the Democrat* Were defeated in Ohio because, in thc opinion of the voters, they did nol deserve to be continued in power. It in charged that the Legislature wai corrupt, and so extravagant that in creased taxation is necessary. The repeal of the license law resulted ic depriving the counties of a gros? rev enue of two million dollars a year, so that the incorporated cities were com pelled to issue bonds to raise money for the support of the infirmaries and polico. It is undeniable that the Dem ocracy signalized their victory last year by casting out Senator Pendle ton-the father of civil sorvice reform and an accomplished gentleman-aud electing in his stead Mr. Payne, who has no other distinction thau such as is given him by his auriferous con nection with the Standard Oil mo nopoly. The legislative hinges v/ere Ireely oiled when Mr. Payne was elect ed. This and the open hostility to Judge Thurman may well have dis gusted the quiet and disinterested Democratic voters of Ohio. It was evident to them that the State Gov ernment was run by machinery, and, in the North and West at least, there are Democrats who think for them selves and will not blindly vote for party candidates who are uuworthy in character or conduct. Ohio ie a warning. The Democrat ic defeat in that State will be followed by Democ.atic defeats in other States, unless the Democratic masses make their wishes and determination known and gag the loquacious spoilsmen who sneer at the relorm of the civil ser vice and hint that Preeident Clevo land is unfaithful to the Democratic party.

Information Wanted. Charleston News and Courier. We baveuoppecial information con cerning the proposed narrow gauge railway from Greenville to Edgefield, and we suppose that, if Charleston's assistance is denired stops will be taken to explain fully the character and merits of tho enterprise. It ap pears, however, to oiler an excellent opportunity to Charleeton lo obtain a short line to the mountains at a tri fling expense. Some months ago various efforts were made to interest the Charleston pubiic in the Carolina, Cumberland Gap and Chicago Railroad, and com mittees were appointed to devise means for giving aid to that project. The townships through which the road is to pass were invited to make subscriptions to the stock of the com pany, and beyond that no information hits beeu given to tho public. It is not likely that there will he any disposition to take up the narrow gauge scheme, unless the Carolina, Cumberland Gap and Chicago Rail road shall be abandoned, or provo to be impracticable. It ia very desira ble, therefor?!, that President Hsgood, or Home one else who is acquainted with t he condition of affairs, shall let the public know how the road stands and what, are its prospects. Heury W. Shaw, hotter known us " Josh Billings," who died on Wed nesday, was G5 years old, having been born in Lanesborough, Berkshire couu ty, Mass., in 1S20. He resided in his native town uutil he had reached the age of fourteen, when he went West and for several years led a fron tier life, being eugaged in the various occupations of steering steamboats, keeping a country stoie and acting as auctioneer in the small Western towna and cities. Finally, becoming weai y of this irregular life, and being desirous of giving his daughters a better education than the limited fa cilities in the West at that time af forded, Mr. Shaw io 18G5 removed to Poughkeepsie, N.
