The Devil may love his own, but
the misfortune for ihcin is he don't
love them to the end?when they
need him moat he leaves litem to their
late. Thus it is with the State Hoard
of Canvassers. At first they seemed to
sail through smoolho seas, and amused
themselves in brushing away the gathering
clouds between them and their
omniscient right to count in whom
they pleased. With (irant, Cameron
and Chandler at their back, and Judge
lloud to unlock cell doors for them,
they laughed the Supreme Court to
scorn and defied justice and public
opinion. Perhaps their assured safety
in support at Washington and the ease
with which they escaped llie (dutches
of the law at the hands of the Supreme
Court emboldened them to lake a step
t >o far; or it may ho I hey thought the
general intelligence ol the people of
llorry was at. such a low ebb that the
returns would be made up so bungling
and informal that they, the board, I
could change them with impunity ami
the world bo none the wiser of it. It
so, they reckoned without their host
and their stop taken in that direction
will end in the penitentiary.
The Supreme Court appointed Commissioner
Wilkes, ol Columbia, special
llcl'croe to go over the Precinct managers'
returns ol the vote of the Slate,
and with them and the County Canvasser*'
statements, to aggregato the
vote of the State cast for State officers,
and to report th * result to the Court:
The Referee had so far oamploted his
work that tho volo was aggregated,
and he was preparing his report, when
a suspicion was thrown on the returns
f rom I lorry County, the rggregate by
tbe precinct returns allowing fifty
yotes more for T. C. Dunn, for Comptroller
Gonoral, than did 1110 County
Canvassers Statement. This fact led
.Mr. LeOont, who, aH expert on behalf
of the Democratic candidates had
i/xiiul ir o i + i t ?)< I t lu) ?
|/I v_ ? iv/uoij i v tiiu v uiu li mil
the precinct returns, lo mention thai,
while engaged in th.it work, he had
his suspicions lrom the appearance (?1
the (igurcH and writing that the returns
ironi Simpson Creek and Dogwood
Neck had been changed; especially
w is it suspicious that the aggregate
veto ot' DogwoodJ Neck for Conipiroller
General allowed 103 votes lor
that ollioo when 101 was tho total vote
cast. This was on Friday evening
and so certain was General Conner,
and those acting with him,that a fraud
and forgery had been practiced on the
returns ol this county, that he induced
Mr. Louis llngood to start that night
lor Conwayhoro to search into the tact,
and see what evidences there were in
existence herj that would lead tr
detecting the forgery.
On the average vote ol the republi
can ticket in this county, the increasing
of the vote lor T. C. Dunn by 5C
votes would have nothing suspicion?
in it, as ho lell 48 behind his ticket
The highest candidate receiving 59T
votes, nod Dunn, 540. The total voti
t-ast at I dogwood Neck was 101, l?ui
one oftlie electors cast no vote for any
cai di late except for a comity officer,
The Democratic candidates all received
7:1 votes and the Republican!
all i?7, except Dunn, who received ten,
This made a total of 83 (or Comptrol
lor General. The return showed tin
vote in figures thus:
For Johnson Ilugood 73, T. C
Dunn 10, In the alteration tiio figuri
one hail been changed to a 3 but tin
straight mark of the one was left, it
the lower bow of the 3. The segregate
had been changed from 83 to 10?
by inserting a cypher between tho t
and 4 and making a heavy marl
through the figure 8 reaching a litth
above the top of the 8.
The total vote at Simpson Creel
for Comptroller General was 220
The returns showed the result ot th<
veto carried out in figures, thus; fo
Johnson llagood 218. For T. C
Dunn 2. , This was changed by inserting
a figure 3 before the 2 and changing
the aggregate to 250 by inserting
a fig ure 5 in the 2. At this poll Duni
ran 80 votes behind his ticket, so at i
glance it would have the appearand
of being all right. The managers a
this poll were Messrs \V. 11. Carter
John W. llirdw'uk and Ncedhan
SORRY WEEKLY IN

Mr. I lagood arrived in town on i
Saturday evening, and left on Tuesday
|.?r Columbia with such witnesses and
evidences u eouM not lai' to show
the Irani and logery beyond a doubt.

and C. 1*. Qnaltlcbaum and John K* j
Cooper, who together had taken a full
statement of the vote at each precinct
while the returns were in the hands of
the County Canvassers, were all ex- J
amined on oath before the Kefereo in
Columbia. At the examination Secrerotary
llajrno was called on for thej
precinct returns, but the returns could
not be found. The clear atid intelligent
mantici in which Messrs. Carter
and Cause gave their testimony, of
their knowledge of the fact that but i
! two votes had been cast and returned
j at their poll for Dunn was so convinc- ;
ingthal it was apparent to Iluync and
his Clerk, Johnson, that it was no use
to hide the return any longer, so after
a show of further search it was brought
into Court. Mr. llryani's testimony as
to the vote at Dogwood Neck, with the
I corohoraling evidence in the hands of i
I
I Qualilehuum and Cooper, clearly estahlished
the fact that Dunn received
only ten voles at that poll.
After t.lin Simnumi Hnwib i'"!""' * ? ?s
brought into ''ourl, Messrs. Carter :iticl
Gausc were recalled, ami Mr. Carter,
who made out llm ret urn, at (nice pointed
the dillerer.ee between his work and
that ot the lowers.
Mr. .Johnson, Secretary HaynuV
chief elerk, was sworn, and stated that
no one bad access to the returns while
in the Secretary's oflioo except himsef
and the Secretary, that if they were
changed and altered it was done before
received by them, for they were new
just as they were when they received
them. This we call decidedly cheeky
for so thin a story. Mr. Jthnson
would gladly lay it on tho board
of County Canvassers or the messenger
who took the returns to Columbia,
lint lot Innately Mr. Dcrham, tho chair*
man ol the board ot Canvassers, bad
business in his oftioo the day before Mr.
Johnson made this statement, and there
he found tho tabulated statement of the
entire v ote of the county, made for tho
purpose of aggregating tho vote and
troin which they made out their returns.
That statement shows that Dunn
received but two votes at Simpson
Creek, and but ten at Dogwood Neck.

Aindngst other importations of valuable
food fishes this Commission has
lately introduced from the waters of

distribution next Spring. As this is a

an addition it is to our stock

Amongst the distributions of this
bureau throughout the country during
the past year were 5,000,000 shad,

What is Fear*d in Relation to the New
Orleans Rouble (iovermnont.
Washington, Jan. 11.?The investi
gut ion begun yesterday by the House
committee of the conspiracy to steal
the electorial votes ot Louisiana and
blorida has caused great commotion in
the Radical camp. The chief conspirators
at this end of the line have been
in consn'tation with the President to
day, and they arc undoubtedly very
much exercised. The inquiries put to
Chandler yesterday disclosed to the
conspirators thai tho Democrats were
in possession of the substance of the
most important telegrams that had
passed between New York and Washington,
and New York, Washington,
and New Orleans and Tallahassee.
The refusal of Chandler to give the
substance ot his communications with
the President, together with Pis admit}
pionH in regard to the contents of despatches
sent hy him to Gov. Stearns of
1 Florida and Kellogg at New Orleans,
lays the foundation for a proper demand
on the Western Union Telegraph
1 , Company for the production ol these
despatches. David Dudley Field has
heen added to the Committee on Pow*
1 ers and Privileges of the House, and
1 ; will probably oireet this inquiry, lie
will he ably supported hy the other
' Democratic members of the commit tee,
among whom are some of the ablest
' lawyers in the|Ilouse.
> The news from Louisiana this morn.
1 I in<_r has added to the iioriili>vii in?
' the Radical lenders. There is a growing
suspic ion on their part that there
is some truth in the rumors of nr. understanding
having been reached by
the Democrats ot Louisiana and Casey,
They are evidently uneasy about tin
attitude ol the President toward the
Packard Government. It is well
known that great pressure has been
brought to bear on Grant to induce
him to interfere and decide that tin
Packard Government was tho legal
one. Hut thus far this has not been
accomplished. It is said also thai
Senator Conkling prevailed with the
President to prevent an interference
| and it is behoved that Gen. Sheridan
has made a report on the Louisiana
muddle, in which he takes strong
' ground in favor of tho recognition ol
the Nieholls Government. It has not
been possible to trace this s'ory to any
I authoritative source, but it is \ory
generally believed by Democrats,
j The radical Republicans admit that,
they have tears of the President
, 1877.
, being influence*! in tV*is way, hut are '
noncommittal on the subject of Slieri- :
dan's report, or llio object of l?is visit
fo Washington at this Mine, It Casey
has combined with the Democrat*, !
there is but little doubt as to his ability
to control the President, and if he succeeds
in this, election to the United
States Senate by the Nicholls Legisla
lure is almost, certain. The description J
of I'inclihack and his combination j
with the Nieholls party is, however, '
indicative of another scheme. Pinch- i
hack must have some inkling of Casey's 1
intrigue, and lias acted accordingly. 1
He probably was informed of the pro- I
position ol Casey to overthrow the
Packard Government on condition of
being elected to the Senate, ami Pinch- 1
back therefore determined to knock
out Hie props himself, and make the j
Democrats masters of the situation
without Casey's assistance. Pinchback
has undoubtedly great influence '
1 with his lace, and doubtless can control
the element in New Orleans, of whom ;
! Oasonave and Kenner, the two mulatto
members of the Returning Hoard, arc
representatives. Through these
various intrigues there will probably
be a solution ol the Louisiana problem
within the next forty-eight hours.
11 the Nicholls Government is estabi
lislied, either with or without the inI
lluenee ot Casey, this solution will
I have a very great effect upon the I
I Presidential question, In the first
' place it is quite protuible that Casciiave
and Kenner of the Returning j
Hoard will diclose sutlicient to upset
! its action in counting hi the Hayes
'electors Hut il this does not happen
J it i> certain that the Legislature and j
the courts will proceed to investigate
j and pass upon the whole subject. I
, 1 here is y< t time for this to he done j
and the result communicated to Con- 1
gross. It this result is favorable to
Tilden the Republicans admit that
they vvill he in a had fix. They admit {
also that even it the Nicholls Covcrnment
obtains undisputed possession
before the electoral votes are oo.unted
their cases will ho weakened.
