DEATH OF MUS. THOMSON*.
Death is alarming, even when expected
ilay after (lay. It was so with the passingaway
of Mrs. Margaret M. Thomson,
which occurred at her residence in this
town, on Monday last, at two o'clock, a.
in., in her sixtieth year.
Mrs. Thomson was a Miss <toumillion.
ond born in Fdgofield County. She
was married first to Mr. Ilollinsworth,
of Kdegefield, and then to our distinguished
and lamented Judge Thomas
Thomson, whom she survived. For
weeks the shadow of death was
athwart her troubled path, for months
she l?nd been a keen sufferer, all of
which she bore with Christian resignation
and fortitude. The funeral services
were conducted in the I'reshyterian
Church by the Rev. W. R. Richardson,
who preached a truthful and comforting
sermon, at the close of which there was
scarcely a tearless eye in the congregation.
Then the procession wended its
slow way to Long Cane grave yard,
where the sod was closed upon a matronly
woman, gone to reap the reward
of a pure and generous life.
The Cedar Springs Rioters.
> Trial Justice DeBruhl issued warrants
^ on Monday last, for the Cedar Springs
rioters, and on Tuesday they were
brought before him for preliminary
hearing.
From the evidence it seems that Henry
Adams, Frank l'atton, Stony Brown,
Ben Henderson, Watt Ramey, Bob
"Wardlaw, W. W. Frazier and Sol Martin
with II number of others u-ere nriiied
at Cedar Springs precinct, ami shooting
off pistols and brandishing; clubs, made
it extremely unpleasant for the people,
quint!}' collected there to vote. The
first five were admitted to bail, and will
answer an indictment for riot at the
next term of Court. Hob Wardlaw was
sent to jail for further investigation.
W. W. Frazier, the instigator and ring
leader bought a ticket at Verderv Saturday
and has left for parts unknown.
Sol Morion is hiding out.
Twenty-five negroes besides those
mentioned had clubs and swore vehemently
that they would stand by FraIy.ier.
This is ar. outrageous aft air and
a the ring leaders should be taught a lesson
they will not forget.
Important, meeting at IiCbanon.
The council of the Elders and Deacons
of the Presbyterian Church, of Abbeville
County, is called to meet at Lebanon
Church, at Jo o'clock on the morning
of Friday, the 28th day of November.
1884. All the. Pastors. Elders
and Deacons of tho churches within the
County are cordially invited to attend, as
matters of great importance will be con/

Dea'h of a Faithful NVcrn.
David Coulter, an ohl and respectable
negro of Mont'Try, diet! Inst Sunday
night. He was noted for honesty and
industry and never voted any other
than the Democratic ticket. In his latter
days he became perfectly helpless,
but was cheerfully taken care of hv his
former master, Mr. Kdwin Calhoun,
thus rewarding him in some measure
for his former faithfulness. The white
people of his neighborhood very generally
attended his funeral.
Horso Stolen.
Horse stealing is evidently on the increase.
Mr. .Jason Simpson, living at
Mrs. Uarksdale's. about three miles from
town, had his big horse stolen from his
stable last Sunday night. How any
man could be fool enough to steal such
n horse wo cannot imagine?it would
take at least an acre of pine tops lo hide
. liiin. Mr. Simpson thinks that the
horso was taken out of the stable b}some
one wanting a ride and hopes to
^ find him in a clay or two.
Immigration.
C. B. Walker, an immigration agent
from Arkansas, is to make an address to
the colored population at the Promised
Land to-day at two o'clock. We learn
that an extra train will bo run from
Greenwood for the accommodation of
those interested, and that stcuuous ef
forts are being made to get the negroes
to emigrate.

(Special Dispatch to tlie News and Courier.)
Nkw Yohk, November 10.?The
lUaine men are dying bard but aro dying
surely. They aro still keeping up their
game of bluff, but the whole* concern is
going to pieces from the inside. The
day after the election when Maine telegraphed
here for bis men to claim every- i
tiling all agreed to obey his order. 1
Since then the desertions daily from the '
ranks of the IMaiuc managers have been ,
large and on the increase : anil now it .
is said that there arc only a few proini- l
nent men here who will lend their aid to 1
keep up the light. Klkins nnd Jones,
however, persist in going on, and, it is
said are receiving financial aid to carry ]
out their schemes from Jay tiould and
his friends.
To-day thov suddenly determined to
endeavor to capture the electoral votes
of Virginia and West Virginia, nnd tonight
a gentleman prominently identified
with the Pacific Railroad left here
for Petersburg, Va., carrying with him a
largo amount of money. The scheme
was known to the Democrats before the
gentleman started, and when he gets to
Petersburg he -will find that the avenues
through which he expected to work
have been effectually closed.
Pension Commissioner Dudley did
not slay here, but went right through to
Washington. Between Indianapolis
and this city he was told of the feeling
here, and telegraphed to Steve Klkius
that public opinion run too high to attempt
to do anything now for Mr. Blaine
outside of the returns, jjiul for his part
he wished to be excused. William M.
Kvarts, however, intends to keep up the
light and to-n iglit said it would take a
week or ten days to get the actual count.
Clarence A. Seward, Benj. K. Tracy and
George Bliss have been retained with
him as counsel in this city. Leading
lawyers have also been retained in all
<1... - ?: ? ?i..- - --
111vj cxmiiiliu?) in me nunu iu Kcruuni/.c
the canvass in their respective localities.
The democrats will also bo represented
by equally as good if not better legal
talent.
Hx-Senntor Uoseoo Conkling has come
to the front and openly declared his determination
to stop the contemplated
fraud of the Blaine men. To-night he
was in consultatation, at the Iloll'man
House, with Aaron .1. Yanderpool, J as.
K. Carter, Francis C. Burton and other
lawyers, who also will represent the
Democratic National and State Committees
should occasion repuire. Mr. Conkling
will act as senior counsel.
The Democratic National Committee
are in daily receipt of letters from all
quarters in this State and also from other
States which give the details of attempted
frauds on the part of the Blaine men.
The following, written by a prominent
citizen of Indianapolis, and who is in a
I position to know of what lie writes, is a
| fair sample of those received :
"On Wednesday afternoon I made the
| startling discovery of of a conspiracy on
the part of John C. Lew and Steve Elkins
to have the returns altered and
raised in some of the counties of this
State. I took immediate steps to checkmate
it. On Thursday, at the the meeting
of the county hoard of couvasscrs in
the various countics, vigilaptmen on our
side appeared armed with certified copies
of the vote in each precinct as it had
been countcd 011 election night, and 110
attempt to carry out their design was
made, except in one county in which the
figures were raised some hundreds."

THE WAY IT LOOKS NOW.
New York's Laws too Perfect to J Admit
of Any Counting Out.
Watkhtows, {N. Y., November 1U.?
Attorney-General O'llrien,a member of
the State canvassing board, in a speech
to the Democrats hero said ; '"I have no
fears that the wishes or judgment of the
people, as expressed at the ballot box,
will be falsified or defeated. No party or
set of men can steal the electoral vote of
the Empire State. The laws of the State
in regard to elections and the counting
of votes are too perfect to admit of fraud,
and the people of New York are too
much in earnest to tolerate fraud, evon
if it were possible. The votes given by
by the people of this State, T have nodoubt,
will be honestly counted, and the
result truthfully declared.
A Single Pact Ik Worth a Shlp-Loud
of Areuiiieiit."
Mr. W. II. Lathrop, of South Easton, Mass.,
under (Into of Jan. 7, 1884, says: "Mv father
had for rears an eating cancer on his under
lip, which had been gradually growing
worse until it had cnten away his under lip
down to the gums, and was feeding itself on
the inside of his cheek, and the surgeons said
a horrible death was soon to come. We gave
| him nine bottles of Swift's Specific and he
has been entirely cured. It has created great
excitement in this scction."
Twisted Bonos.
Mr. J. R. Stewart of Macon, CJa., a well
known and trustworthy gentleman, makes the
following statement.: "My son who was between
three and four years old, was all drawn
un with rheumatism. His bones were twisteil
and he was all doubled out of
shape. He suffered intense pain. Had lost
his appetite, was cross and fretful. He was
reduced to a mere skeleton, and had to be
carried about on a pillow. As these cases of
rheumatism, where the bones were twisted
it? -it t---t f
nil I' inn nviu mi ciuu^cu, mill lor years
bafiled tlie skill of the most eminent physicians,
I determined to use Swift's Specific, as
I had seen testimonials from men whom I
knew to be trustworthy, of similar cases it
had cured. I used two large bottles of S. S.
S. according to dircctioi.s, with the most satisfactory
results. Mv son commenccrt im.
proving with the first dose of the medicineMis
sufferings diminished daily and his appetite
increased ; he became cheerful and in
good spirits. Gradually he regained use of
his limbs, the twisted bones and joints
straightened out and in less than two months
he was entirely cured, and could walk and
get about as well ns any child of his age.
Beware of imitations of Swift's Snecific,
gotten up by unprincipled parties to deceive
the public ; some of these frauds bear the lie
in their faces purporting to be vegetable
remedies, when they arc really nothing but
strong solutions of mercury and potash.
