Many people assert with a degree of certainty that the State is continually drifting from had to worse, and to attempt to rescue her would be madness. To enunciate such doctrines is impolitic. We have a lasting faith in the ballot box, and by these means only can we once more place the State in the proud position ' she has occupied. The people are yet supreme, but if this apath- tic f cling continues to gain ground, and lot the election pass by without aDy concerted action to place honest men in power, fhen we must accept whatever principles or men the opposing party may give us. We do not look nor act as one without hope. We believe that out of all j these financial complications, good I will accrue thereby. The intellect and ability to bring order out of this chaos is centered in our candidate, Edwin ?, Gar)% against whom not a whisper can be heard, not even by his no litical adversaries. To elect mm ;s 10 bring assurance and confi lence at home aud elsewhere. If, on the other hand our people are going toel'ow inactivity and inertness to control their actions, we see no possible chance of eaviugeven the splinters from the ruia of a great common wealth.

We hope that on the dawning of election day, the busy notes of prcpa ration will commence aud not consuutil we can prismt cue unbroken front ready to battle for Tomlinson and victory. ]>e not dismayed, c >n eider each ballot as a bull, tt for th: desperate enemy.

The October term of the court began on Monday; the Hon. Juo. J. Maher, \ the recently elected judge of the second j t circuit, presiding. J t The criminal docket is less formida- t j ble than usual for Beaufort county, on- t ? ly some fifteen bills of indictment hav- t ing been given out; and but for the <3 , nearness of the election, which prevents t many witnesses from attending, and t the escape of several prisoners from of c ficers sent to arrest them, or from the t jail, all the criminal business would be t finally disposed of during the session, t The presiding judge evidently possesses the precise qualifications needed f by one occupying the position; uniting d suavity with firmness and dignity, clear- c ness and precision o' statement in his t addresses, with learned exposition of ^ law points, and enforcing the rules? I too often neglected?which are calcu- } c latcd to render a court the sanctuaVy of JJ order and justice. j1 The following bills have been found j s b? the grand jury: jc The state vs. Seipio Barnwell, larce-! c nj?true bill. i The state vs. Morris Miller, assault 1 with iutent to kill. j t The state vs. Henry Johnson, assault 1 a ) with intent to kill?true bill.

One More Effort. n We hope the apathetic feeling that b has existed in the miuds of the voters <, will be forgotten and one more c fT?rt made to give us au honest adminstration in South Carolina.

There is no cause for remaiuing quietly at . j home because you are ' tired' of poli- j tics, and d >nt care which wins." ^ Every man must consider that he has tl a duty to perform and on him rests the 0 rcsposibility for his inaction. Another n two years of misrule and our State t, I I * is hopelessly gone?a military cr tcrri- . w torial administration is the only alter- s native.

Monday ihe ueual q fietude was broken by a large political gathering at he Biick Church. Senator Smalls wa? be leading spirit, and his disciples was here in large numbers, and their en husiasm was as boundless as the ocean, o eay nought of the depth. Many lulicrous incidents occurred to the oraorical portion, commencing with the ireaking down of the rostrum, when a art was improvised, and that accidenally tipped up spilling the speakers in he sand. We hope these episodes are lot symbolic. In the evening Beaufort was shook rom centre to circumference by the tilal wave of political enthusiasm. The pposing Senatorial faction bad a orchlight procession, and a procession vithout torches; lanterns innumera)le, rockets and Roman caudles and :andles that have never seen Rome. Lightwood by the cord or less, to fire he indigenous multitude to an awful ense of the great responsibility resting >n their medium and herculean shoullcr8. Each man and boy no doubt, magined themselves a Toussant AOuvreture. The patriotic drum kept olerable time to the irrepressible fife, ind we made up our minds that the andidafo wbiiTdbe clecletfor defeated it the election. On that point thare is ittle room for argument. A similar ac irlpnt. nrrurred here as on St. lleiena. The speaker's stand found itself unable 0 bear such a mass of intellect and [own it came, burying in its debris the peakers, and injuring several persous everely. One individual had his leg >rokcn, another had his shoulder somewhat, injured, and a woman was more r loss contused. "When a lull occurred and the Burgng multitude were calmed down tc repectabilitv we could hear very distincty "fraud." "ring," ruined credit," 'bonds" and such familiar words ringag out clear upon the evening air. but 1 was such a disjointed lot of adjecives that we will not attempt to fill up he interstices like a speech, for it ould only prove to be a reiteration or hat has been said so often that it Dads like a proverb. What time the leeting'broke up we don't know, we ere well satisfied that a calm would illow such an agitation, and peace and uietncssonce more spread its drapery ver Bay street. Work is progressing rapidly upon the ea Island Holel, and a few weeks lore of labor will see in our town one f the fiuc-st resorts for travellers cn ic sea coast. There is no place beveen the. cape and the gulf so well lapted for the invalid, or those of el;ant lcasure; as in our vicinity. It assesses a remarkably mild climate, ad sufficiently cool in the winter eeks to be bracing without being radally cold. The tide of northern travis up the St. John's we admit, but c have all the advantages Florid i aims, with the addition ot beiug bet ;r situated geographically. Sandiched between the tvvo rival ci'ies, ilh mail and steam communic ition lily, we see no reason why our star muld not advance steadily towards le zeuith. We confess that Florida can ?at us in the matter of snakes. The Democratic meeting which was to ive taken place Tuesday even ing at the rscuul, lias beeu postponed indefinitely, hey have abandoned the idea of placing lotlier State ticket in the field. BQk.

Then vas no positive evidence pointing t< ,he perpetrator of the act, but the cool a colored man) was arrested on sua iicion?he having been in the imme liate proximity of the tent during th< ibecnce of Colonel Kirlin. MEFH1ST0FHELIAN MOSES. A Neighbor's Opinion of Ihe "Ring" Candidate for Gubernatorial Honors ?Moses "a Central Colossus in a Ring of Thieves." A correspondent of the Sumter New* who seems to he thoroughly familiar with the ways of F. J. Moses, Jr., says: As an humble citizen, and almost hopeless of the future, I have been opposed for years past to taking any part in contentions between parties in the State. But since the partial developments of Moses' high-handed and wholesale depredations upon the public funds, I must confess I cannot calmly face the certain consequence of his election to the Governorship of the State, while circumstances afford a chance for his defeat. Let Tomlinson be what he may. Let him be as bad as his worst political enemies would represenf him, still I cannot believe that any one age can produce more than one monster of such an insatiable maw and such hell-horn enterprise in financial deviltry as this same Frank Moses. He had the hare-faced effrontery in a recent speech before a Charleston meeting, to use the following astonishing language, viz: "I can say 1 l J Willi a cicar conscience mat iuu and-black people of my native county and town know that not one of these charges is true?I need no defence before thcni." The devil himself can't beat this for brazen-faced impudence. There is not a man, woman or schoolboy, white or black, in this County of Sumter, who is not perfectly satisfied, that Frank Moses lias robbed the publictreasury on a most gigantic scale. Everybody in his nativi- County knows thatf at the time he got i ito office in the 1'adical party, lie was as poor as any of us. If it was possible that Frank Moses was an honest man, then he is emphatically the biggest fool on record,,for not showing the public how he comes in possession of such a vast amount of money. On a salary of ?3,(XX), he feasts and revels with the reckless abandon of a spendthrift millionaire, and yet asks for proof of his dishonesty. He parades in oston tatiou.s arrogance, the exquisite perquisites of public plunder in open day, and flaun's in the very faces of the people, the shining trophies.of his matchless skill in fraud, and cries, prove me a robber. This peacock vanity displays gratuitously, and absolutely forces upon public view, evidence abundant, pointed and damning, and yet he lias the infernal impudence to call for proof. He stands to-day before the bar of public opinion as plainly stamped with criminality as if public thief was branded on his forehead. As well might proof he demanded that the sun is shining while his meridian rays illumine a cloudless sky. Indeed he seems to have exerted his utmost to show himself a central Colossus in a ring of thieves, and thereby establish his claim to the highest place of honor in the kingdom of ltogucdoui. And could the honest property-holder he safe from his clutches, we should say, by all means let him wear the crown without a rival, present or prospective. ? i:rv\T rwiTi-VEVr AT RAY POINT The Mythical Sea Serpent. The great ubiquitous denizen of the ocean so often seen in various parts o! the aquatic world made his appearance of Bay Point Sunday afternoon aboot three o'clock. The gentleman who witnessed his great serpentship, states when he first saw the monster he was heading for Trenchard's Inlet, Uul subsequently changed his course towards the point. lie states that he should judge him to have been sixty 01 seventy feet in length. Ilis head was entirely out of water, and as large as a barrel. There were protuberances 01 ;/ humps upon his back which were seer jusbabove the water, eight in number, After taking a good survey of lbs : land he swam to a point midway be p ' twecn Ililton Head and Philip's Islanc . and then started seaward. The gen i tleruen could see him distinctly unti j| he reached the outer bouy. when hi ; again changed his course and wasthei [ lost sight of. The day was mile aud still, and his royal snakeship, un j. doubtedly had a good lime. The wa i ter- of South Carolina have had ant still contain wnndt l ful specimens of tin j finny tribe, according" to Agas.iiz, bu I we doubt if the much spoken of sea | s rpcnt was ever seen before, baskinj in southern Waters. Perhaps bis o tier aquatic highness, may be a degen crate production of the plisiosauru , family and came to visit his or her an . ' cesiral home. T'ni3 is undoubtedly the same one that was seen last sprin< ' : by the people of Nahant | j Dastardly Act. I.asL Saturday evening ju>t after darl the ollice of this paper was broken iuto ; and a quantity of printing material re moved therefrom, consisting of the in ' s 1 side form of a small political campaigi I paper w hich had ju?t been prepare! for the press. The value in dollars am cents might probably reach SluO, bu su ilk-lent to cau*; us some inconven . it nee to replace, which could not b< done short of the north. While we re i grct the loss, we care not to draw up on our hind of expletives to publicly condemu the deed. To say it was dam ! nable is much too mild f^i: our use, be > : yond that we must forbear. Ifour po " [ iiiic.tl opponents thinks by any sucl * means to silence us, they are mistaken and the act its? lf only proves that ou . articles are truth from lirs* to last, am | ' 1 c.iunot be defied. It would have beei much more creditable tor the instiga tor and abettor of this outrage to hav > resorted to aeme other method of re > veDge than by stealing our material : but he ia s> accustomed to what ha . become a lurury to him, that he can ; not resist, and when the risk is to much, be sets on his lickspittles am ** t ?*. > TW JW. v.1.>i whelps. The jewel of fan play should be found even in Lhe min cesspool oi political waifare, and vhtn writers and pettifoggers are uot willing to tuk< as well as give, then they should leave this antagonistic field for some other occupation. Since the above was in type the thieves have repented and brought back the type, but as to the act itsell we cannot recall a word We have written. Attention is called to the advertise ment of a stationery engine for sale bj Mr. J. Brodie. JBiSf Judge Bryan has appointed two Supervisors of election to eact precinct in this Couaty. under the law* of the United States. Tonilinson or MoSes. Just in the Presidential campaign the contest has narrowed down to z choice between Greeley and Grant, sc jn our State election our people havr ouly the alternative of giving theii support to the one or the other of th( Republican candidates. There is nc Democratic or conservative ticket ir the field. It is too late to brin^ oni ~ mrc now, and it would be hurtful t< bridge out one if time did permit. We soy this upon the hypothesis which, ir our judgment, is correct, that the bol ters1 ticket is not only far better that that of their oppoDcnis, but that it is , as fair a Republican ticket as reasonable people could expect. Of the Moses ticket it is useless to speak, and il is certainly* disgusting. With one, per haps two'excoptions. the candidates are scarcely a whit better than a leader. They are as bad as bad can be. His supporters talk glibly of Moses' repeu r tance, and the wonderful changes foi the better which will come over hire when Governor. Where has he given the tirst signs of repentance ? He docj not even confess his crimes, excepl when forced to do it, and then onlj for the purp- se ot palliation or excuse If Moses is elected we venture the prediction that a tax of not less tliar twenty-five mills on the dollar will bt levifd next winter. The interest ot the public debt may not be paid. W< have not the remotest idea that it will but the people will be taxed to pay it The extravagance and profligacy o the past two years will be as a moh hill to a mountain in comparison wit! that which Moses will inaugurate The bond frauds are pretty well playet out. but it will he upon the pockets o the people that Moses and theprccioui crew to whom he is bound will faster their clutches. Then it will be tl.a the tax payers will feci as thry hav< never yet ti lt the burd< n and opprcs sion of official corruption.
