The Ootober Elections.
The August* of the 14th
instant, thus speaks of the recent elections :
41 The indications are unmistakable that the
country is to be cursed with four more years
of corrupt Radical rule. The elections in
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana hare
% gone for the Administration candidates,
' which is tantamount to a declaration that
those States desire the continuance of Grant
in office, with all Its gross corruptions frauds
and stealings st the North, end ell Its aseant^
ments, hates end high-handed oppressions at
the South. From the superfluous wealth of
, the prosperous North there will be unlimited
plonderings. From the broken-down, impoverished
South there will be small gleanings
of money, but a saturnalia of vengeance
on her poor and proud people, who scorn to
how the knee to military power and the spirit
of imperialism."
The same paper also adds:
"The results in the States of Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Indiana are sufficiently ascertained
to show that Grant's star is still in the ascendant.
That he may be defeated next month
is certainly among the possibilities, for the
chances sccin good for Greeley to got Indiana,
and if bo does, tho loss of Pennsylvania and
Ohio will not necessarily prove fatal to bis
hopes of the Presidency. The Administration
has many advantages in the fact of being in
possession of tho Government, with its patronage,
its offices, its handling of public
money, its power to levy assessments on salaries,
and to employ men on public works.?
These arc only a part of the means and appliances
st its command. Colonization, rc
pcating, ballot box stuffing, are araong the
additioual resources, and the party in power
has always the advantago of " the outs" in
these artful contrivances, even when both
sides are equally willing to use fraud or
force."
The Elections on the 8th Inst.
The recent elections in Ohio and Pennsylvania
were carried for Qrant, and that
in Indiana for the Liberal Republicans,
the 1. tter bring a doubtful victory.
The Flection in tue City ?There were
cast at the Court House Box, eleven hun
dred and fifty votes, but of course no idea
cculd be formed as to the result It will be
12 o'clock Thursday before the result will
be declared.
Election Wtch.?The candidates for the
various offices weie very active in the County
during the entire week; in oonsequence, the
City appeared unusually dull, until Tuesday
before the election, when there was mora stir
on the streets.
Election* day in the City passed off very
quietly and without a single disturbance.
Mir. C. F. Jackson.?Don't fail to call and
see C. F. Jackson's Stock of Fancy and Staple
Dry Ooods when you visit Columbia, for
if you call, you will bo sure to purchase, as his
prices are so very low.
Temperance Order.?On Tuesday night
last, Rev. Landt Wood delivered a Temper
anco address in the Court House, at which
there was a large attendance of citizens.?
After the address was eoneluded, an organize*
tion of some thirty-odd persons was effected.
The new society meets again on Tuesday
night next, in the new Court House. Those
wishing to join are cordially invited.
Tfie MeBee Land*.?As all of the lands advertised
for sale by the Executors of the Estate
of Vardry McBke, deceased, were not
sold last sales day, the sale will be continued
on the first Mondny in November. Mueh of
that to be disposed of, is located in and around
the City of Greenville.
Th? Weather.?For several weeks we have
bad charming weather. On Tuesday morning
last, 15th inst., there was frost and ice. An
old resident says that ice has been earlier this
year than for many years past. Our farmers
are having a splendid time for picking out
their cotton.
Good Price for Cotton.?The New York
quotation is among the nineteons, and we
hope it will not stop there. No doubt a great
deal will be brought to market in eonsequonee
of theee high figures. During the past, at
lower rates, tbere were sold in the Greenville
market over four hundred bales. This is a
very respectable number.
Paul B. Lalane A Co., Charletton-*-Splendid
fiek.?We have received from those energetic
and progressive wholesale grocers and
commission merchants of Charleston. Messrs.
Paul B. Lalank A Co., specimens of what
they deal in, in the shape of several boxes of
American Club Fish. These Fish are very
palatable?being much finer than Sardines.?
We return thanks f>r the same, and would advise
our dealers here to try their sale upon
this market.
Rrpobt or the County Com mission tens ?In
this issue will he found the Annual Report
of the Couoty Commissioners of Greenville,
for the past year, which will be fonnd of
luterert.
oser-nvilt* Gaining Attkntiox ?We
last week mentioned the names of several
new comers, and we have no doubt there
will bo many more at an early date. A
gentleman at Chester writes to us inquiring
concerning the renting ofa store-room in
our City, intending to come to Greenville
and open business, in January next. Good
elore-rooraa here are very scarce, and we
only with there were more, and wa now
know of no plaee that could be procured.
Parties having residences or stores to rent
would serve the public by advertising the I
fact in the Bnterpriu. Wethiok the g?o- ;
tlemen at Chester who contemplates locating
here, should give oor City a visit, when |
he can better gain the knowledge he de* ;
ires;' besides, our [Hople ere hospitable, (
and a visit to the "Mountain City" will re* ,
pay him in pleasure, j (

Dictiowart.?Webster's Pocket
Dictionary, in its present shape, is a great improvement
over all previous editions and all
timilar works. In the first place it is neatly j
printed, and bound in morocco, with gilt
?dges. Then it eontains 200 pictorial illustrations,
which give a much clearer idea of the
meaning of many words than could possibly
be conveyed by the usual definition. The little
volume, which being no larger than an ordinary
pocket-book, embraces in its voeabu
lary a careful selection of over 18,000 of the |
most important words of the language, with !
definitions sufficiently olear, though necessarily
brief, to meet the ordinary wants of any
one requiring its use. Prefixed to tho work
are tables of money, weight and measure,
abbreviations, words and phrases from foreign
languages, rules for spelling, explanations
eta. It is in fact a most valuable little book,
and is doubly worth the dollar it costs. It is
very beautifully and substantially bound, with
tucks and gilt edges. The Publishers, Ivison,
Blakeman, Taylor A Co., 138 and 140 Grand
Street, New York, will forward it by mail on
receipt of One Dollar, or it can bo bought almost
anywhere.
A Snow Worth Skkinq.? We are in receipt
of a letter from the oldest and most
popular of the equestrian, gymnic and
zoological managers in America, Mr John
Robinson, in which we are advised that his
Colossal Combination entertainment, of
Menagerie, Museum, Aquarium and Circus,
is on its way hither, and will shortly be
with us.
Mr. Robinson's has always been the
favorite and standard Shnw nf Smith
and all others have sunk into otter insignificance
in comparison.
It is ndt our province to enumerate his
thousand-snd-one attractions, for the attractions,
for the advertisements and the
bills of the day, which will shortly be displnyed,
and spread broadcast through the
country by the millions, will exonerate ua
from that task. But we will allude, en
passant, to his collection of living red Sea
Lions from the Alaskan seas, his half a
score of Arctic Seals, his great Sumatran
Rhinoceros, his gigantic Ostriches, his stupendous
Giraffe, (a recent importation,) and
his vast array of dens and cages, filled to
repletion with living specimens of the rare
and curious of ejrrth, sea and air. The
champion athletes and gymnasts of the
Universe Messrs. Kelly and Slickney, by
their extraordinary skill and dating, add
to the attractions of the cnterta;nment;
and the " Di Vernon " of the arena, M'll
Millie Armour, lends the witching of her
beauty and fearless equestrianism.
Tebmblk Tbaoidt ix Savanxah.?A special
to the Charleston Nsws gives the details
of a bloody tragedy that took plaoe in
Savannah yesterday afternoon. Between
ten and eleven o'clock, Alexander Dillon,
son of David R. Dillon, banker, entered hie
father's office pale and apparently laboring
under great mental excitement, and went
into the back room of the office, where his
father transseta his private business. On
seeing him the father began to reprimand
him in a very severe and harsh manner.?
xne young man swore mat he would not
put np with the language hia father had
used on a previous occasion, and in the ax*
eitement of the moment, drew a pistol and
fired three limes at his father?all three
balls taking effoet, one in the right arm,
another in the head and the third io the
thigh. After committing this set ha shot
himself in the breast. Ha was then taken
into the adjoining room, occupied by Mr.
Phillipe, who seated him in a ehair, where
he expired in ebout twenty m nates. The
wounds inflicted on the father are not of a
dangerous charae'-er ; bat there is no doabt
the son thought he had killed his father,
and concluded to end hia own life.
We learn from the Newberry Herald, of
the 3d inst, that rontlnoed dry weather is
telling seriously against the late planting,
and mueh cotton will be lost In some see
tiona the fields are almost dried up. The
worm, too, is depredating to a considerable
extent There are fields on the roads leading
from towu, as well as othe a here and
there io the-eounly, which are almost atrip
ped of leaves.
Oen. Moses, in a published card, denies
the statement of the Beaufort Times, that
In 18(15 he sought the appointment of judge
sf one of tho courts erested by the Legislature,
becaoec he was desirous of enforcing
the Black Code.

The Sao euggeete thet "poeeihly tha contestants
hare not beeo equally matched
in thoee appliance# ot party warfare
whfeb address themselves to the paaeiona
and personal Ictereats of voters."
Tbe New York Herald declares without
hesitation that it Is "a victory that settles
the Preoideotial oonteat, and proves beyond
doubt that the attempt to hand aver the
Federal Government to a new party ?om?
paved of Democrats and dltaatiafied Republicans
has proved a complete failure."
The Tribune alone undertakes to rally its
shattered columns, and to figure out how,
even conceding Ohio and Pennsylvania to
the Republican#. Greeley can be elroled.?
"Friends H aaya the Tribune, "in epite of
fraud wa are on the hotoe etieteh, with ev?
ery prospect of success*
The Titnee thinks the Democrat# "will
begin to realise the Idly of their bargain
with Horaee Greeley," and that they woold
have had a better chance of success, and
stood much more favorably before the peopie
had they nomioatod a good man from
their own party.
Tbe New York Post draws three lessons
from the elections. 1st. The atter nnutility of
the system of misrepresentation and fraud
which tbe opposition has ao extensively adopted.
2d. That the shameful bargain, begun at
Cinoinnati and completed et Baltimore, wherein
the party of Reform was betrayed and de.
moralised, and the Democratic party d shonorod,
has not boen accepted by the masses of
tbe voters. 3d. That tbe majorities for Grant,
in tbe States wbioh have thus voted, will be
in Norember as large again as they are now
for tbe local candidates.
The Philadelphia Press denounces that " it
would be folly to allege that the great majority
for Ilar.ranft is tbo offspring of fraud,"
and snare: "We believe it to be a legitimate
majority?the growth of several causes that
lie so nlainlv nn lh. ?r ,v ?__?
that all may understand and study. General
Grant pulled this ticket through. In an ordW
nary contest it would have been beaten out of
sight; but his name, and the fear that its do?
feat would damage him in November, rallied
to it thousands who closed thoir eyes to the
proofs we daily spread before them, and constrained
many to certify to the deservings of
candidates of questionable rocord."
The Inquirer draws the moral that "the
business interests of the country ineMne t<>
the belief that It is wise to " let well enough
alone.'"
The Philadelphia American attributes th e
' extraordinary vole " in that State to the
alarm caused to the Republican voters by
the boastings and streouout exertions of the
Greeleyites.
The Cincinnati Commercial concedes that
" the returns from the State of Ohio at
large altnw that the Liberal movement lias
Dot shown solid strength outside the Urge
towns," and adds that, " taking yeasterday'a
elections altogether, the conclusion is
forced that the luck of General Giant, in
polities as in war, is likely to be confirmed
by his reflection to the Presidency. The
Liberal and Democratic organixaiion is not
so compact that it can withstand the shock
of repeated defeats."
The Springfield Republican, however,
puts on a Spartan face and" declares that,
" On tne whole, it would seem as if October
would not altogether anticipate the work
of November, and 'hat Pennsylvania, Indi
ana and Ohio have not taken the job of
electing a President out of the hands of the
nation."
Diabolism in Raleigh?The Sentinel
Office Blown to Atoms.
The city of Raleigh was alarmed about
one o'clock this morning by a terrible explosion,
which shook nearly every building
in the oily.
Soon the alarm of fire was given, and it
was soon ascertained that the noise proceed
ed from the office of the Raleigh Sentinel.
The firemen were promptly on the spot, as
the Sentinel offioe adjoined the engine
house. Upon examination, the Sentinel
presa room was found to be in ruins, the
roof of the house being blown to pieces and
scattered in every direction. The press
which printed the Sentinel wss cnmpleiely
demolished, the type in the composing room
adjoining, all knocked down and pied, aud
everything in the greatest confusion and
disorder. A large crowd of citizens soon
gathered around the dismantled building
and the impression was universal that some
fiend in human form had blown up the
Sentinel press hy placing powder unders
neath.
The opinion was fully confirmed by a
subsequent examination of the ruins A
small job prats in the composing room, |
which eteaped destruction, was examined
end a paper of powder found under It with
a alow match, which had been lighted, but
had gone out.
This was proof conclusive that the out.
rage wee planned by some enemy or en?>
mice of the editor of the Sentinel.
It ie said that about ten mloutev before
the explov<on, a colored boy, who live*
near the offioe, saw two Individuals running
(ua> !.- ?l> .u. J: ? -'
wM vmi ma >pvi< iu mo u li voblUU VI ?ll?
depot, with hat ip hand.
We learo that the office and preee were
partly inai-.red, but we do not know lo
whet extent The press cost some $2,500.
This diabolical and hellish outrage has
excited great indignation, and the vile
wretch who eonoeived and earrieJ It into
exeeution, deserves the severest penalty
that the law eao inflict.
Sueh an sot of fleodlshnses is too infa
moos to be properly characterised and de
oonnsed.
Whether from personal or political real,
tee, if the heartlese villian thinks he can
mnuKt the Sentinel, or silence the voice ot
a free, independent press, he #il! certainly
find himselfjvsatly mistaken. The Sentinel
eaonot be suppressed by sueh means. The
loss of the preee will no doubt be r. placed
in a few days by a new one.

A Lktter most Ciias. O'Oonok.?The Herald's
Richmond correspondent says Charles
O'Conor. in reply to a letler addressed to (
him oy Jas. Lyons. President of the L?uis- i
tills Convent bin, enquiring whether he
wou.u give inn nssuranee inm lie wouia
serve if eleet<-d, an>1 if it was true that he
raid Greeley was a man of transcendent
ability, wrote the following letter:
N?w York, Sept. 30.
My Dear Sir: If I have raid or written
anything differing in the slightest degree
from what is contained in my two publish'
ed communications, one to the Louisville
Convention, and one to the Committee, I
possess no power of language which would
enable me to speak mote plainly on any of
the subjects therein treated of It may be
tru\ as you suggest, thst the people will
vote for any man wh<> will not announce in
a public manner that if elected, he will not
serve them; if so, they will never vole for
me. I should regard such an announce' 1
ment as one mode of soliciting I heir support.
II the Soul hern people did not know,
before I said anything on the subject , that I
one of the candidates is a man f transeen
dent ability, they are singularly slow of ap
prehension. The desolation of which they (
complain is attributable to him, and the
long and disastrous war that filled his
"Moody chasm" with fratricidal slaughter,
and "involved'' the whole country in debt
and demoralisation, is due to the "unequal. 1
ed energy," eonibl- ed with the fdlly of this
one exceedingly mischievous man I regard
the possibility of his election with Ins ,
expressible aversion. If the ideas of the

Dr. R. V Pierce : For the past six months
I have used your G'dden Medical Discovery

its merits in sever* coughs, both acute
and chronic, in chronic disea'e? of the
throat, a-vere cases of bronchi)is, genera]
derangement of the system, constipated
condition of the bowels and wherever a
thorough Alterative, or hlood purifier, has
been indicated. In all cas-a I have found
it to net gently, jet thoroughly end eff?*e uelly
in removing lh? various disease I conditions,
and bringing about a healthy action
throughout the system.
