The Second Battle of New Orleans.
NEW OELEAKS, March 5.-The seventh
precinct station was quietly taken pos
session of last night by the McEnery mil
itia. No resistance was made by the
Metropolitans ou duty there, and no ef
forts Lave beeu made to day to displace
the militia, it is understood that further
aggressive moves will be made by the
militia to-night. For twenty squares to
night only one police was found on duty.
They have been called from their heats
and "concentrated about the stations. Me
chanics' Institute, etc.
LATER.-At about half-past nine o'clock
to-night, a squad ot perhaps fifty men, at
tack??'the third precinct, nrm?? into the
building. They were repulsed Ly the po-,
lice, but were quickly reinforced by about
three huudrel and fifty men These were
attacked by Gen. Badger,- with about two
hundred policemen and a piece of artil
lery, and for about ave minutes a sharp
r.Utlo ol musketry ensued. Both parties
maintained their position during this time,
but at the second discharge of "th? cannon
* the militia retreated through Jackson
square, and half an hour later the police
relieved their comrades, who remained
during the conflict- within the building.
One man, a Mr. Hartman, was killed and
soveral were wounded.
AXOTUEI: ACCOUNT.
Between nine and ten o'clock to-night
the McEnery militia attacked the third
precinct police station. They commenced
' the attack by firing into the building.
The firing was returned by the police.
Soon after General Badger. Chief of the
Metropolitan Police, moved down Char
tres street from Canal with about 200
men and one piece of artillery. Quite a
large crowd had by this time collected
about Jackson Square and on the streets
leading thereto. When near the crowd
General Badger ordered them to dispers".
The militia refused to give way, when the
police fired a blank cartridge, and soon
after another shot was fired. This time
the gun was loaded with grape. By this
one man was killed and soveral wounded.
Another charge of grape was fired out of
St. Ann street. Some* ten or twelve are
reported wounded, but onlv one man is re
ported killed. As far as known only on?
policeman was wounded during the entire
?ght. At one time the firing was quite
brisk; resembling somewhat a picket skir
znish. For the powder expended and the
fuss made, the damage was remarkably
light. The grape cf the Metropolitan?
was more than tue militia bargained tor,
and they are reported to have weakened
readily. " Many of them are reported to
have skedaddled in great disorder. The
United States troops, about eleven o'clock,
reached the scene of conflict, and the re
maining militia retired, leaving them in
possession. The Kellogcritea are jubilant
and the McEneryitea quite the reverse.
The United Slates troops now occupy
Jackson Square and other points in the
City, and will no doubt fprevent further
disorder. All reports about a compro
miee are unfounded r'in fact, now regarded !
impossible.
A company of United States cavalry,
ai. 1 o'clock, "a. m., passed up Camp street
to Gen. Emery's headquarters, but Boon
after returned* to'Jackson Square. They
are held in readiness to assist the polio?
in repelling any attack that may be made
No further trouble apprehended iO-night.
the militia being satisfied at leaving them
in rDssession.
The city is full of rumora. At this
hour (1:10. a. m.) the streets are almost
deserted. Up to 12 o'clocn they were
crowded with people, everybody inquir
ing the news and the latest from the seat
of war. Thousands of rumors were cur
rent, but the facts, in the case have been
given above.
McEnery'* Ultimatum. *
NEW YORK, March 9.-A Herald spe
cial from New Orleans gives the text u?
the ultimatum issued by the McEnery
government to th-; people of Louisiana.
After reviewing the causes of thc present
difficulty, and severely denouncing the
conduct of the United States Government
in establishing the Kellogg government, it
sayB it is still more to be lamented that
thc support and protection of the govern
ment have been continued by the Presi
dent. It totally dissents from thc view
that them can tie any legal government in
the State entitled to recognition by the
Federal authority which is not rfc jure as
well as rfc facto. We have further to re-(
cord the mortifying fact, as declared by
the report of the committee of the Uniteo
States Senate, that such government can
only be maintained and its authority en
forced bv the aid of the military power
of the United State?. It. stigmatizes thr
statement that the people ot Louisiana
voluntarily submit and acquiesce in th<
usurpatiou ai- a stupendous falsehood. The
McEnery government have deemed it im
perative ou themselves to assert their rights
and exercise the function confided in them
Ly the people, but they have been hin
dered by intervention o? the F?d?rai Ex
< cu: iv.-. 'J hey therefore appeal to tiieir
brethren in other States for"sympathy and
support of the position which they are
interested in maintaining. They call on
the people of Louisiana to maintain their
dignity and manhood, and to unite with
them in firm opposition, not to the United
States, bu: to any and every act of the
Kellogg government. The manifesto is
s:gned by McEnery and the Legislative
Committee.
The Louisiana Difficulty.
President Gram 'hopes that farthei
trouble in Louisiana will be avoid
ed, especially bloodshed We ull !.op<
that. The probability ia there will be n<
more seri" "H.-* trouble, though it \j possible
some re?r4f;?3 an? imprudent men may give
vent to tin i: indignation in a breach ,oi
the peace and bring down tLe wrath ot
the government upon them, lt wr.jl.
be'more than famish, it would be mad
ness, to attempt rcaiatince to the i?owe o'
the fcder.il government. The words of du
President are aigniS ant if they are re
ported ccr-xi! y withe Wadiingbm
patched published yesterday. " If tic
people of New Orleans." he remarked, " nu
not convinced by this time that he is i;
earnest and resolved to discountenance ->!
further efforts on thc part of the McEnorv
government to remain in power, wheitie*
rfc facto ny dc jurr, it will riot be his fault
The issue having been mad-, the admin
istr.ition adheres to its original position
and. ri .'ht < r wrong, Kellogg will be pro
tected, if ;t i-. necease ry to hedge his ul
fice w.th federal bayonets." We all know
the firmness of General <ir.mt. and can aol
doubt thal he will persistently carry out
thc jolie- h-begun. What, then "would
be the nae of resistance .' We do noi
?Link Governor McEnery and the infin
iters ot h.-? government will attempt to d<
anything so futile. They made the issue
with the federal government, were put
down by ;:. and must now lei ve the mat
ter Zo pub!; ! opinion. If, however, they
wy?' came-; in their efforts on Wednes
day and had any bope of overthrowing the
Kellogg usurpera an 1 grasping the power
of the Stau.- tte y did ?".ot go to work in
the right way. Instead of seizing a polir,
station or two and attempting to get hold
of a building they might nave seized Kel
logg and Longstreet and thu? paralyzed
the usurping government. They made u
mistake, and now wc fear the misch iel
done is beyond remedy. The proper course,
even still, for the federal government to
pursue would be to authorize a new elec
tion in Louisiana and give the people a
fair opportunity to express their wishes ;
but we haye Jittle hope of that being al
lowed. The administration appears to be j
determined to crush the McEnery govern
ment rt all hazards and to maintain that
of Kellogg. What a reflection upon bur
republican institutions! What a raockerv
of local self-government! It has beeh
said that eternal vigilence is the price of
liberty ; but we lear the psople. of tho
United States fail to see that, and are
losing that watchfulness they manifested,
in the earlier and purer days of the Re
pablic. Such a usurpation of federal
power as that in the* case of Louisiana
would not have been tolerated in the ear
ly period of our conntrv's historv.-N. Y
Herald.
EPIZOOTIC-A number of farmers in
this section of country, say that this dis
ease has returned and attacked their stock
with increased virulence. Several cases
have proved fatal to hores i and mules,
and danger of the live3 of others is ap
prehended.-Charlotte Oheai'ver. j
Nie N. Y. Herald on the President's
lu augur al.
The N. Y. Herald, of the 5th, com
nentingon President Grant's inaugural
iddress, says*:
" We do not believe that the President
.Itters words without meaning and with
out sincerity, and hence we have a right
to expect from bim such a change of poli
cy towards the South as will restore the
frood feeling between the sections, lost
through the illiberality and political in
trigues of Congress in the work of lecon
rtraction. The civil rights of the colored
population of the Southern States, to
which the President pledges his support,
ran be better secured through the action
of the States themselves than through
the intermeddling of the scheming poli
ticians in Congress, whose object is to set
race aqrainst race and to strip the white
inen of the South of all power over their
bwn political affairs. To-day Louisiana
stands bound in tho fetters of usurpation
and p^werlesr to enforce those rights
guai antead by the constitution to every
State in the Union. With her legitimate
government driven from power at the
point of the federal bayouenf, with her
legally elected Legislature paralyzed, and
with self-elected men assuming the pro
vince of making her laws and levying
t ixes on her people, with her Courts pack
ed with partisan judges by a bogus Leg
islature and a usurping -Governor, Louis
iana is at this hour in a worse state of
bondage than when the fetters still hung
about the limbs of her slaves. It would
be a mocker)' to pretend that " good feel
ing" could be restored in Louisiana with
these outrages heaped upon her, and .the
words of the President afford hope that
the South will no longer be subjected to
the oppression which, if continued, must
destroy all confidence between the sec
tions. " But the President also says :
." The Stites lately at war with the gene
ral government are now happily rebabili
tated, and no Executive control is exer
cised in any one of thpm that would not
be exercised in any other State under like
circumstances." Surely President Grant
must have forgotten Louisiaua when he
penned this sentence. Does he remem
ber that a United States Judge, since
branded by Congress, distorted a law in
order to issue an order driving from power
rhe regular government and placing the
State at the mercy of a band of reckless
conspirators; that tbeseillegal orders were
-nforced by a partisan United States Mar
dial, backed up by federal troops ; that
the State House was seized and surround
ed with cannon, the constitutional officers
lriven out, Governor, Judges and Legis
lators, and the usurpers installed in their
ulaces; that the Senate of the United
States, appealed to as arbitrator, feared to
endorse the outrage, denounced the Judge
and left the State to get out of the diffi
calty as best it might; that the federal
government is now asked by the usurp
ers to stand at their backs and to enforce
their authority even at the co3t of a mas
I -s-tcre of the outraged people ? And if the
President has not forget ten or overlooked
Louisiana, does he intend to say that the
?same " Executive control" that has been
exercised through Durell and Packard and
Kellogg m Louisiana would be exercised,
in New f*ork, provided the result of an
"lection did not suit the politicians of the
dominant party.? We incline to the be
lief that tn? President must have forgotten
Louisiana !
BROOKS AND ELLIOTT-AX INCIDENT
IN THE HOUSE.-The Washington Chroni
cle says : .
As soon as thc vote on the question
of censuring Mr. Brooks was announced
from the chair, Mr. Brooks cose from his
seat and approached Mr. Barney's and Mr.
2.lion's seats.
*' Mr. Elliott .vas standing a little in
rear of his seat, and was surrounded by a
lozen or mon persons, when Mr. Brooks
ipproaciied and extended his hand, and
grasping the hand of Mr. Elliott in a cor
dial manner, said substantially :
"'Mr. Elliott, from the bottom of my
heart. 1 thank you for the vote you have
,ust now recorded. For years past I have
:>een the opponent of your race. I ap
preciate highly the fact, that in thjs, the
hour of my adversity, when 1 am desert
oJ by men of my own race, whom I have
tood by in the past, you and Mr. Rainey
have ignored all prejudices and have acted
ustly. I desire to assure you that in the
:uture I shall by my humble voice and
influence, be as ?eady to protect and vin
l.cate. the rights and aid the advancement
't' your race as I shall my own."
" Mr. Elliott replied: 'Sir, I thank you
icartily for this assurance of your good
viii toward me and ruine. Min?.- was no
::tsy task, but I thank God that He gave
ne the fortitude necessary to overcome
those feelings of projudice 'to which you
?ave alluded. I did for you, sir, what I
vouhl under like circumstances have clone
br any otic else. Under the solemn ob
lation? of my oath as a Representative
1 looked not upon you as a political op
ponent, but as an American Repr?senta
tive, who had a light to demand judgment
founded upon thc law ami evidence. 1
voted against tho resolution, because, in
my humble jugment, you were clearly
entitled to such a vole at my hands. 1
i^ain thank you for your expressions of
good will.' "
A TERRIBLE REVENGE.-A fashionable
young Parisian, during his Inst summer's
shooting, became intimate willi the pretty
wife of a gamekeeper, and has continued
to visit her. Quite recently the husband
. ?acame aware of his dishonor, ami con
rived to be near on the occasion of one
of these visita He-approached the house
tinging and whistling.* and the terrified
wit*4 coucealed ber lover in a closet, and
that closet had Le:-n prepared foi his re
ception by the gamekeeper. Entering, he
ordered his wife to light the fires and gel
b . ak&st. She obeyed, and at the end ( f
a few minutes a thick smoke issued from
th-.- closet. The husband had disconnected
the stove funnel, which ran through it.
ti? ?Uectcd not to mind this, nor lo hear
the groans of thc euffoea ing man within,
md when his wife fainted at her work
rom fright, he coolly got breakfast him
elf, 'fit it and departed. The poor wo
?uau soon recovered and dragged her lovel
t?(.in his placv of confinement, but the
husband's revenge had been complete; he
was past human aid.
UNFORTUNATE Oc/TItr.ENCE.-On irs
lay of hist w?-ek? an unfortunate ? fair
took place on the plantation of Mr. J. T.
Lowry, about five miles South of town.
It s'-ems that Mr. Lawry's son, Montague,
a lad of about 15 years of agc, who was
in possession of a small pocket pistol, had
proposed to'exchange pistols with Wylie
Giaham, a freedman living on his father's
farm, und while in the act of examining
their weapons, Montague's, which was in
his own hands at the time, vras acciden
tally discharged, the ball penetrating
Graham's breast, from the effects of which
*ie died in a few minnies. At an inquest
before 'orr .er J.R. Wallace, held soon
after tba occurrence, the verdict 'sf the
jury was in accordance with the above
fads.-Yorkville Enquirer.
Kever Miller, an industrious and fru
gal colored man, died in this town last
Tuesday night, of Typhoid fever. Kever
h id gathered together quite a respectable
property, and a few days before he was
taken sick, told * us he intended to buy
him a farm next Fall, "and show those
lazy men of his race who hang around
town, drinking up what little money they
earned, that a colored man, if he worked
j and saved what he earned, could get
I along as well in this county as anybody
else, white or colored, in a?v part bf the

Ke-wr was much respect?e by all classes,
and his death is greatly regretted.-Uni

Wilson like Mr. Colfax, is a tremen

jounces his sense of the solemn!!

to give satisfaction in all his rulings

he has occupied a seat in the Senat?
eighteen years, that he underst

McEnery denies giving the orders wi

to be regretted that this contest was
cipitated, as it will probably resu
injury to the people of louisiana,
ders issued to Gen. Emory from W

of tho news of this collision, show
President Grant is determined to sus
the Kellogg government by force

And still the people show no sigr
yielding. The bogus government is
thronec? by the strong arm of tho Uri

the best means of thwarting and m

?Dear Advertiser,-,?As you hav
[laps not hoard much of the progrc
improvement of our beautiful "<
lately, I have determined to sit
this morning and give yon a few
esting items.
. Ridge Spring is growing stead i
carefully. Many Railroad villaj
you well know, grow in iii tts
style, but it is not so with Ridge .V
pur inhabitant*) have a far-seeinf
of enterprise; and ..their works a
verify, this assertion. Our buildii
riot only erected with neatness, tai
?elegance, but also with a view to j
nence, as if our citizens meant
and die here-to set up here theil
lasting rest. In fact, things, loo]
Ridge Spring is destined to be a p
enduring importance. Trade hi
steady and remunerative, and oa
chants, one and all, seem to be sa
with the amount of business th<
And still Ridge Spring cannot b
such a business as Johnston's ; th
the trade transactions of the othe:
chants there compare favorably
those of Messrs T. Jones & Son,
.have seen spoken of from time t
in your columns.
With tho proceeds of tho late i
tho Baptist Church lots here, the B?
aro having their sacred edifice wo
repaired and beautified. Airead
pulpit has been moved from frc
rear, and very tastefully arranged,
pews are also to be remodeled, ai
whole building repainted.
And, soon we are to have an Epi?
Church in our midst. The partie
corned in this undertaking are vei
thusiastic, and their energy will ce
ly complete it handsomely. The lu
is already being laid upon the site i
new Church.
We have here also a first-olass si
presided over,by a lady whose very
vouches for her character and" inti
Miss Sarah Furman. .This school
perintended by the Rev. Richard
man, D D.j Whose learning and ea
ence make it rank amongst the
schools in our State.
The sale of spirituous liquors i<
prohibited here, and undoubtedly
augurs well for tho future tone and
perity of the place.
The planters in our neighborhoo
bouyant and active, expecting to be
yet riclier and more flourishing b?
year's labor.
And if the rich Northern people
are buying homes so often iu the S
now, would like to find a spot whi
wholesome climate and natural bc
can eoarcely be excelled, Ridge S]
is that spot. You ought to tell then:

Furman University.
Much has been said and written
corning the endowment of this nobl
stitutionof learning, but if Imistak
the articles written have been *coni
almost solely to tho religious press,
as a consequence many of thc best
zens of the country, (those who hai
much at heart her educational interc
have not had the subject brought dire
to their attention. This leads me tc
dress to the favor of such the follo\
article:
Tho above institution, while undei
control of the Baptist denomination,
gathered within her walls from yei
year, y-oung men of other denominati
who arc there educated without dist
tion or sectarian influences This
induced liberal donations from the
feront religious orders, from ono hum
to a thousand dollars, and also from <1
of no religious faith. This action
their part lia.s been prompted by
deep interest which all should feel in
cause ol' education.
Never in the history of our com
has lhere been a period which ileum
more the awakening of our people to
important subject Utan '.lie present; t
which if neglected, will make II
gloomy and sau the darkness which 1
gathers over our unhappy country. '
recent sad war has brought to ruin sr
of the noblest institutions of our St
Our Arsenal and Citadel have fallei
the general wreck ; and but recently
beloved and only State University
received her death blow bj' tho clod
of four negro and three carpet-bag
trustees as her sponsors. This act
upon the part of a mongrel and corr
legislature,-in direct violation of an:
solemn promise,-must cast a shade
deep sorrow over the heart of every t
citizen of the State, especially when tl
recall the past glorious history of t
noblo institution From her daisie wi
have gone forth many of the nob]
young men, who are to-day iniiki
brighter and better this world bocai
of their inflnence,-hui from her wi
they go forth no more!
Furman University is now thc 01
rcmainingnnein theStato, and being hi
pily beyond tho control of a depraved a
corrupt government, tho true citizens
the country can make it permanent
their own, if they will only rcgpoi
though meagerly, to the pressing claii
which she is now making upon them.
Thc University is now laboring fo:
permanent endowment of two hundr
thousand dollars, the income only
which ia to bi! used for tho maintenan
'of th? said institution. In order that i
might be enabled to aid in this groat ?
good enterprise, thc follnwi'ng'plan w
adopted by a Convention of some of tl
best men in the State, held In Greenvil
in 1870. '
Bonds were issued which now dra
interest only from January 187."? to Jam
arv 1876, at seven per cont. From th
latter date five years are given for tl
payment of tho principal of the bond, ?
fivo equal annual installments, tho fir
on the first day of January 187(3, and th
remaining four installments in one, tW<
three and four years thereafter-giyin
eight years for the payment of the bone
Two admirable provision's aro made i
this bond? 1st.' Should tho donor die bc
fore its maturity nothing is left upon th
familv or estate of the deceased, i. e,
tho bond becomes null nnd void. 2nd
Should tho said University fail to scour
by the 1st of January 1S70 the above en
dowmeut of two hundred thousand dol
lars, in good bonds and other relinbb
securities, then tho bond bcoomes iiul
and void, so in giving a bond, ono is sun
of aiding the institution or his bone
comes back to b|m again. Thc donor n
a bond of fivo hundred dollars, is ont.,
tiwi to a free scholarship immediately foi
four years.
Notice again. After this endowment
shall havo been secured, tho doors of thc
University will bo opened for ten years,
free of tuition to all. What a proposition
is this! How many poor young, men
will thereby be given the advantages of
a liberal, or at least a partial odncatUji,
wlio otherwise might bo. entirely,'de
prived of 'its blessings. :? '
Will not those who still have afr heart
the welflxro q? their country, whb' yet
love.their ?tate.'and long to ?oeh?t't^?ce
again prosperous add happy, pure and
uncorrupted from the ?tr?l* of the pres

TREASURE a CARKOZO PUTTIXO ON THE
SCREWS.-A Reporter of the Charleston
Courier hasinterview<*lTiTmurcr Cardozo
upon various mattel? connected :with his |
?office, and r?e are pl<?u?>ed to find.that the;
Treasurer has determined 'to put a 9top to
speculating in State and comity claims.
We have often said that Cardozo was one
of, if not the, most reliable and honest
man in the Republican party in this State,
aud if he carries out his determination,
as expressed in the Courier's [ report, he
will clo more to satisfy the people and in
duce them to pay the heavy burden of |
taxes promptly and willingly than any
other man or set of men in the whole State
Government. We? repeat what we have
often before said, the people- do not object
so much to the amount of taxes levied as |
, they do to the dishonest manner of dis
bursing them. . Let the Treasurer show
clean hands and he may rest assured the
people will hold him blameless from ' any
extravagant or' exorbitant expenses of]
the government. 1 Let the Attorney.
General also stand as a stone wall to de
fend the Treasury and punish all who dare
to defraud it.-Union Times.
p$r- The rotund maiden of the period
dresses in the fashionable iow-neckod
party dress, and looks like an oyster on
the half shell, palo, - pulpy and peaceful.
So says an up country, editor, and the
fellow ought to be swung up to the near
est lamp post without tho benefit of the
clergy.
OBITUARY.
DEPARTEO this life, on tho 28th Feb.
1873, Mrs. ANNA MARIA TERRY,
consort of JOHN TEKRV. deceased.
She waa a 'consistent member of thc
Baptist Church for over forty years. Sho
had attained to the good old age of over
four scoro years. She was stricken
with paralysis and suffered long, but
with Christian patience, sho br re tho
trials and afflictions incident to life until
death came and released her in thc eigh
ty-second year of her age.
The Church fqels a vacuum that cannot
well be filled. The family, with a largo
train of connections, boliovo that their
loss is her eternal gain. Thus a mother
in Isreal has passed away, leaving a
bright example behind ber !
