About 5000 negroes arrived ther from Newborn and the lower counties o: an excursion train, chartered by the Re ' publican State executive committee, to at tend a mass meeting, at which Congress ' man Thomas, ex-Senator Abbott, Marcus Erwin and R. C. Badger were to 'be tin speakers. There were few white peopl. in town. Many of the negroes came in toxicated. The police arrested, one turbu lent negro, and while on the way to tin guard-house with this prisoner' the no 'groes rallied and rescued him. The col ored police fired at the prisoner, who waa recaptured and-taken by the police to th* Exchange Hotel. About one thousand ot the negro mob. with clubs -and pistols, rallied to the hotel, attempting another rescue. The riot commenced by the ne groes throwing brickbats at the police, and using clubs, when a cross firing began between the police and mob. The white people forbore, but are now armed for the emergency. There is great excitement. About thirty or more shots were fired three or more whites were hurt, one negro killed, and one colored policeman killed and two wounded. A committee ..; citizens, appointed by Mayor Robinson, waited upon the Rep'uBlicdn leaders and Mr. Stanly, president of the A. and N. C. Railroad, and' requested that the trains and negroes be carried away. Tophis Stanley replied that he would' not carry them awav until he was readv. WhAii told that he and Thomas would be held responsible for the disturbance, he replied! " Hold us responsible and be d-d." .-1 ' i ? j The Mound City (Mo.)

At this her father became enraged! and threatened to get out of bed Httmedi audy and .whip her, but did not make any . attempt until the next morning.. The young lady arose early the next morling, and not long after the L\her g> up and ordered her to go to the smoke house; at the-same time telling her that '-?

THE ADVERTISER. Edgefield, S. C., Aug. 3, 1871. Otic of ibe Most Gigantic Feats eve Achieved ! The whole Western world-in'faet the whole world by this time-is ringing with the stupendous feat achieved aiew days back by the Ohio and Mississippi Rail road Company. On th'O'?bd July,' between 4 and ll A. M. (7 hours, only! ! !) the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad between Cincinnati and St. Louis-340 miles ! was. transformed from .a broad gauge to a narrow gauge. American energy cer tainly reached its climax on this occa sion. The way it was done was this. The . task of the day was to move the rails in ward 7J inches on each side- and spike them firmly iii their new place-altogeth er 680 miles of rails of the main line, be sides many miles of switches with their frogs. The road was divided into sixty eicfht .sections, of five miles each, and an averp.se force.of forty men to the section -2.720 men in the 340 miles, was secur ed to jump to the work simultaneously, at all points on the road, at daybreak. And they did Jump to it, arid did carry it through'thin and. there! Up to 1 o'clock the night before, broad gauge trains were rushing over the road, east and west, seeking yards from which thev were never to roll again on the wide trucks of the past, while by ll o'clock next day. new engines, drawing the wide parlor cars mounted on narrow trucks, were traversing the": entire length of the transformed road. ' Below, we give;some interesting, extracts, from the Cincinnati r'omitiercial- of the 24th July, concerning 'his* magnificent transformation scene; WHY THK CHANGE 'VAS MADE ?t is hardlv necessary to tell ; but it can be done iii .a few words The wider the ark the heavier the rolling stock, the -Mer the destruction of the costly rails,' \nd the more the expense of keeping up i good road bed-all of which count up . i big fr. ires ina year. And thero is* he additional original cost of running rea? and bodies of cars .and of repairs, igeth'er with many otheritems. In thi? . iuntry broad y ange roads are a pro? .duneed financial failure, and must, for he present reach of railroad foresight, at least; yield to the narrow. Some three j >: ar-a b the managers of th? Ohio and; Mississippi;decided on the change, and vent largely into the work of prepara ion, purchasing many cars. They were ?reed to abandoned the enterprise for :. time, but revived it a year ago, and push ed, rt vigorously- to thc success attained yesterday. THE EQUIPMENT. The task of irarrowing the road was aot the only heavy one. They had to bunn (by changes of trucks and Works md by purchases of new rolling stock; tho coioplete narrow gauge equipment for this long lino, of which the following ;s an approximate list : Engines. ? 127 ??ox freight cars 1,000 Coal cars 37? flatcars. ' 275 Stock cars. . 100 {fassenger cars, first class. 4(i Baggage cars. IS Bxpress cars. 10 Night cars. ' - .0 Mail ears. . 5 Parlor cars. t 4 Wrecking cars. 4 Officers' car. 1 Paymasters' car. 1 Tatal. 1,972 THE ENGINES or the ro?d are perfectly uniform in ap pearance. They number up to 127 inclu sive, and the numbers are all in full. They axe plain-" painfully plain," a lady on the road remarked yesterday. Much money has been saved by dispens ing with unnecessary paint, but there they are, great blaek, heavy, puffiing, grunting monsters;, ready to tug faith fully 'up the heavy grades around the "canals" and dash over the prairies of Illinois, with their heavy burdens of living and inanimate freight. They can get along very well without fancy painting, and the name of the' railroad presidents and .superintendents, and towns and cities. OVER THE HOAD. On j?ll the divisions of the road engines were drawing cal's containing the officers yesterday inspecting the work. These trains ran east from St. Louis and west I from the eitv., meeting. those in both di r?ittif?1*** i'rcw.t Virjooijuc.r. Jiy -4, p. m., every foot of the road had been tested aud found perfect and ready for the trains LD start out ou their usual time-table to day, and make time everywhere. By the time this reaches thc eye of the read or trains-will be running east and west I just as'if nothing had happened. Xhe indefatigable Wier, of thc Adams, pro claims as follows: "The first through car of the Adams Express Company, from New York to St. Louis via the narrow gauge Ohio and Mississippi route, arrived in this city last night, and will gn forward on the first train this morning." ALONG THE HOAD the people flocked to the various scenes of industry and watched the proceedings with much interest, and at the stations crowds collected and cheered " the first narrow gauge train." Ono of thc mo>t interested spectators was Father Kline, tbe Catholic priest at Aurora. Ile joined tbe party on the train after thc hundred nen that he had sent lo the work had one their full duty; undhi a glass ol humpagne toasted thc " narrow gauge,'' for,'" ?aid he, "y >u know it is a.narrow oad that loads U> heaven, and the broad ?neleads to-well?too Har south." The . sMonl o" thc rpad, Mr. ?. M. Chrystie, who had overtaken the train ou /vuiUOttKe, u..tu:w CO this,f.-a-l, togulh with the others-'* To the narrow ere that at least leads tb the. haven ol tiuncial security." Father Kline was most enthusiastic man over the - .aii v c to be found.

There were tho long, straight lines ad curves of the rails, and outside oi hem the two light streaks in thc weath .-nattered ties that marked where they tad rested of old. As the engineer oi Co. 100 squinted along them, and noticed we resp msc of his ??.n horse, he iv uarked, with much satisfaction : ''This york is mighty well dono, as well a. quickly. Thjs engine pevor. did any work before; she's raw, and the wa v ho acts tells how the road feels to her." tXi The commissioner of internal rev .nue is having refunded the cotton tax collected on rope and bagging known as the biro, which amounts, - to from fifteen to twenty pounds on each' bale. Tho amount of cotton- tax collected by the ,'ovcrnment was about .$80,000,000, and if this amount about ?3,000,000 is thc rope and bagging, or tare tax, which is now being refunded under section 44 of ihe act of Congress approved June 30th 18G4. In all claims of this kind the cer rificate of the collector of internal rove nae is required.

MR. EDITOR.-Not being able to get a reply from the County Treasurer or School Commissioner, I ask space in your columns for further comments on ihVEducati?hal Fund. In a letter from ' Jr K. Jiilaon^State Superintendent. o? Education^ to tt?e" Editor of th&Columbia? Daily Union, in the ? issue 'of Hie 24th; July, Mr. Jillson states'that -" ont of the Free School Deficiency Appropriation of $40.000, the same to he applied to the pay ment of Teachers' claims up to date of January 1871, Charleston City and County havo received the snug littlo sum of ?23,642,23, and that it is net the ' first and only instance where Charleston City has gobbled up school funds belonging, in fact and in justice, to other portions of the State.!' '. Now I would respectfully ask Mr Woolly and Mr. McDevitt, what amount of this fund Edgefield County received There are thirty Counties in the State, and yet Charleston County gets more than one-half of this special appropria tion. Edeeneld bein* the next largest County should have received at least one third of the amount Charleston received. The taxpayers would like to have the figures ; they are anxious to know ahout this, matter. The public schools, were kept open in Charleston County during the summer months of 1870, when our school.?? (what few there were in Edge field) during that year were closed. Out of the $150,000 appropriated for the Free Schools for- the present year, this County is entitled to $7,000, or near that amount, while tbeCapi tatton Tax should be at least $3,000. There isa yoting popu lation of. over 7000. and the Treasurer can very easily collect $3000. If he fails to do so. he should bo made pay the deficit out of his salary. If the sum of $10.000 has been spent in paying the drafts given Teachers for their, services during the nresent year, -?ivfc us tho cvidenco; .if not, give us the reasons. If such a sum has not been spent upon the Free Schools, then'some one is in fault ! I would respectfully inquire of the County Treasurer whatnmount of money he now holds in his hands collected'from the Taxpayers of thin County for Capita tion Tax, dunner thc, past three years sine? the adoption of the new Constitu tion. I am informed that in at lcast_one third of the Townships there is no Pub lic Schools. In fact thero are very few ii any in the 9th Regiment. Under tho present law, the Capitation Tax collected from those Townshps, cannot be applied to any other portion of the County, but must be paid, only to Teachers iu the Town ship where collected. As this fund has thus been aoerunulating for three years, it is well worth the trouble of the per sons who have children to educate to look after this money. I would here state that thi? money, and all money appropriate^ for schools, is payable to all scholars alike, to tho rich as well as thc poor. TheTe is no distinction now ; all are en titled to their distributive share. The pay of teachers ranges from &o.00 to$50.0C per month, according to the grade'of thc school. I aui aware that no money passes through thc hands of the County School Commissioner, but it is his duty to sec that no more drafts are drawn upon the County Treasurer tlian there are funds wherewith to cash such drafts, and to sec further that all drafts are paid up prompt ly. If not thus paid, he should know thc cause and report the Treasurer to .the State Superintendent of Education. Tliis has pot been done heretofore. His duty is to see that this County gets every dollar duo for Educational purposes, -anti that proper application is made of thc money, each vear. HOWARD. For the Advertiser. Old Times-Revived en a Pic Nie Day. On arecent visitto Edgefield Village, il was our good, fortune, after gcttinp through the "hour of business," that oc casioned our vI3it, to return b*y way o: our good friend Dr. T's., whose ple.is.in1 home and genial hospitality unite in giv ing a friendly welcome to all. After partaking of thc comforts, and enjoying tho quiet rest, so refreshing tc the weary traveller, fwo awoke, bright enough and fresh enough to enjoy, with the young-folks, the pleasures of thc an ticipated Pic Nic'to be given on that very ?lay at Meeting Street, by thc pupil's, and the patrons and friends of the School, under tho supervision of that amiable and talented young.gentleman Mr. AL VIN HART. " Having received a polite and kind in vitation to remain over, and enjoy for a time thc pleasures of thc day, we yield ed to a pleasant delay and found our an-r ticipations more than realized. About 10 o'clock, the highways were seen crowded with young folks and old folks, little folks and big-folks, all hap py. The large assembly soon filled up the Academy hall, and the remainder gathered underneath the Pic Nie grove. After the pleasant meetings and happy greetings were over, group after group-? of all ages-were scattered hereandihere, and the kindly passings and re-passings, together with the interchange of friendly words, and loving eyes-all told of tho nnlon of enjoyment, even if no olhrr union was thought of on that tiny, by the vonnc folks, and perhaps some of the .?.ld folks too. Old friends and old faces met after a long separation, and talked over the<*'Memory of good old times,"' mingling tho past with the present, and living over, gs il ?'ere, their own happy school days and school-day pleasures again. Thon the young lads and lassies. T guess they could speak better for them selves, but "Old heads .and hearts" can guess, once in a while, how young.folks feel ? and wc would not be surprised if thc happy present with them extended into the future. ; Life with thom is not Sweet Memory, but it is all Bright {lope. To be truly just, however, the youth of our party, even in-seeking-their enjoy ment ? little apart from the older :ones, did not forget tho respect and politeness due to the aged. At tho sound of the violin tho spacious hall of the Meeting Street Academy was soon filled with young and old. When tho dance commenced, all seemed to en joy it with a hearty good will, and every thing went off "as merry as a marriage ' bell." The music was very fine indeed, j surpassing any thing of the kind usually gotten up on occasions of this sort. The young gentleman that performed on the bones, would hav?'??no credit to any first?] class " Ethiopean Troupe," Well, after such a time of a M talk and play" there camel o'clock-the tbn? to feast. All were in. motion, wending their way to the table, which fairly groaned under tho weight of tho good things to eat,-"good things not only by name, but by nature." Tempting dishes and nice things were sot all around in great profusion. And when tho substantials woro fully discussed, there were custards ; and cakes,' ice creams and lemonades, and sweet meats rare enough to make us all children once more. Being a great lover of good Coffee, it would bo 'un grateful in us not to mention tho nico treat in this form that was preparedand sent ns by our kind hostess, Mrs, Dr, T. This added much to our part of .the feast, and wo fully enjoyed tho kindness and the Coffee. After dining, much to our satisfaction, with the same good genius presiding over the: scene, and the same joyous spirits prevailing (not tho spirits that make tip sy, hc.ids and. red faces, for thero was noliubg r?f tho .kind there)' evoryihing passed off with' the ggreajest ecfciC.J Noth enjoyment of the occasion in tho least.
