The total unofficial vote in the State in the recent primary was 54,572 for Tillman and 23,635 for Slieppard, showing Tillman's majority over Sheppard to be 22,632. The majority for prohibition in the total State vote was about 9,000. Below is given the results of the Congressional Districts in this State: First District; Brawley received 6,32S votes, Stokes 5,485, Brawley elected by 842 votes.

Fourth District; Shell 10,586, Johnson 7,219. Shell elected by 3,367 votes. Fifth District; Hemphill 5,9GS, Strait 6,141. Strait's majority 173. As the polls were held open at some of the pre cincts in this district until 6 o'clock Hemphill speaks of contesting as such precincts thrown out will give him the majority. Sixth District; McLaurin S,269, Smith 4,9-11. Bingham 297. McLaurin elected by 3,037 votes. Seventh District; Moise 3,607 Heyward 3.197.

Sunday's Register states that a white man and a negro of the Dutch Fork, who requested that their names be suppressed, were in Columbia Saturday, and calling on the Governor informed him that the negro men and women of Irino section were being nightly whipped by White Caps. On Friday night a negro woman was almost whipped to death, and that other negroes were being warned to leave the county. The Governor promised take such steps ( as were necessary to uphold the law. There is a probability that an effort ] will be made by some land compa- 1 nies to have the deed to the Colum- ; bia canal made to the Columbia ] "Water Power Company, set aside on \ the ground that the company has { failed to comply with the deed in re- ] fusing to complete the canal to ] Grauby. ] Mr. E.

I US IX lO XUSL'XXHiyt: U llft'iuan D UUIJ j at the ballot box. A contingent of j Sheppardites posted themselves a j half a mile from the voting place, at the junction of several roads, armed with whisky to catch wary voters. Tho "sheep" ticket received a few more votes than we expected, though it is now apparent as to the cjuestionable methods by which most of them were secured. They claimed j over forty, but received twenty-six j against seventy-five for Tillman. As a fair sample of the purchases made by ShepparcTs tools, I may cite a case in point which occurred at our polls, the truth of which can be fully verified. The week before the election, one of best citizens met a man on his way to Columbia shouting for Tillman and anxious for election day ' so that he could vote for the Reform ( ticket. But lo! on election day this same voter appeared on the scene ^ loaded to the chin with Sheppard whisky and voted the straight-out ( ticket! Later in the day when so- 1 bered be was reproached for bis sud- ] den change. He became despondent ( and, with a face the picture of re- ^ morse, said: "Bud, I did last week J tell you that I intended to vote for 3 Tillman and meant it, but when I * got to Columbia, I hadn't a dollar < when , of this county, 1 and , of Columbia, < both well known Sheppard men, gave < me some whisky and furnished me ten dollars worth of goods, so I had j 1 to keep my promise and couldn't go 1 back 011 them." These two vote s brokers, with several others, are 1 spotted in various cases and may 1 lind themselves held up as examples c of violated law. Over in Piatt ? Springs a keg and several corpulent s jugs ran riot in buying votes, while 1 not an instance of fraud can be pointed to on our side.

On the of August Mr. Archie Wolfe and his accomplished lady < gave a picnic to many of their t friends, with a splendid dinner, } which would have made the feast ( loving and banqueting kings and ( queens of old sing songs of joy. ^ The day was happily spent in pleas- , ing social intercourse and festive en- j joymcnt?dancing being a leading , feature.

Besides all this he raised the largest watermelon of the season. It weighed in the presence of wit- ^ nesses 105 pounds. Sandy Run takes the belt. t Yesterday was a gala day at Kaig- ^ lev's Mills.

In addition to our local belles and beaux who graced the occasion we g( ma}* note the charming and graceful Miss A. R. Miott and her genial ^ brother, Mr. J. D.

Bates, in the city of Columbia, and there gaze upon the fast fading form of that knightly soldier, O. B. Bates, Co. F. Third S. C. Batallion. Col. James commanding, Kershaw's Brigade, who, by hardships endured and duty performed while defending the flag ji the Lost Cause through many a bard fought battle field, still stands i monument to the sacrifices nade, which we so love and cherish, md to roll back the tide of invasion )f that merciless host from our ^orders who so ruthlessly destroyed )ur homes and violated every rule of civilized warfare. Mr. 0. B. Bates is one of the renaming five of that gallant comnand who returned from that great struggle and who are now alive. Some nay ask as they read these lines ,vhere are the others of that patri)tic command? The answer comes, *one down at j:he shrine of liberty striking for Constitutional rights, and n the language of the poet Hayne: lias, their heroes perished 'kCut down at their golden prime; With the luminous hopes they cherished, On the height of their faith sublime/' The writer of this is the recipient )f two Enfhld rifle balls, and also ,hree caps used by that command, seiner one-half which this noble solO T i T i. ... ir i n _ l uer naa wnen mey surrenuerpa at joldsboro, N.

Mr. Gantt 5 a one armed Confederate veteran; > a man of ability and sterling worth, nd is in every way eminently qualied to discharge the duties of the ffice to which he aspires. Living in section of the county where the ervices of a County Commissioner is reatly needed, his election would unoubtedly be a saving to the county 1 mileage and in other expenses, lack Creek township is pleased with ae complimentary vote he received 1 the first primary and in the second hopes that Mr. Gantt will be one f next County Commissioners.

To the Editor of the ispatch: 5 # . j Feeling tlie need oleereation and i i o ^ respite from toiling ajng tlie clods, j and having a desire t see more of ? my old county (of win I am justly proud) and become irrc thoroughly -- 1 ....-i 1. 1 ^ UCqUlUlJUiU Willi JLilfi supit", ncm -> laid by my crop, I tbw aside my t plow, saddled up old me and rode around to hear the <ndidates discuss the issues of the it, and thereby get au idea of the jlitical status } of our county. Altho^h somewhat fatigued from the trij: I feel fully 1 repaid and returned haecongratular ting myself that it is 17 fortune to live in the grand old canty of Lexington. I was met oull sides with pure, genuine, Democrric hospitality and got acquainted wit all the can dilates, lifty-two in nwber. A more genial set of fellows it 'as never my lot to be thrown amon^ each striving for the mastery in wining the affections of the voters, wile they extended to each other the utmost friendship and evinced,ii every way, the fact that they wen. a band of brothers, vieing only in tie race for office. At every meeting the issues were very clearly and ully ventilated, both pro and con, i language that none could mistak^and, while our Ben and his party vere lauded to the skies, there was nothing said against the opposition hat was not in full keeping with the etiquette of debate and which was intended to instruct and not to insut. When I looked at the magnificent crops that greeted my O'es on every side, and partook of lie luscious fruits of the smiling orclards, I felt fully convinced that in n? portion of our sunny, Southern lane had Ceres and Pomona been more lavish with their gifts than iu our beloved old Lexington. Corn that would do credit to the valley of the Nile, sugar cane, l ice and tobacco and, in fact, every thing in profusion, that supplies the wants of man, proclaimed to the passers by, that the farmers'of Lexington were a thrifty, independent and energetic people, equal to any emergency and determined, henceforth, to live under their own "vine and fig tree. "'The fleecy monarch, though dethroned, still in feeble tones, asserts its rights, as many af it nvA still SApn ornwinor in luxuriance. On every hand was to be seen beautiful and happy homes, under the roofs of which, I always met with a cordial welcome and was made to feel that a Lexington farmer is the true type of a South Carolina gentleman. During my journey, I was introduced to that renowned teacher, Prof. Boynton O'Brien, the ; champion orator of the campaign, of our 'county in the way of education and to whom Lexington is highly indebted for the brilliant scintillations from his intellectual light that reflect from the minds of many of her once hidden gems. His work in this direction will leave "foot prints on the sands of time" that shall ever remind us that no "flower" is obliged "to blush unseen or waste its sweetness on the desert air." Prof. O'Brien was born nnrl VAir^rl in flio Tl'-.ri'iiriirvn on/i ^ V_? AVUAVvt J.+JL bUV/ Vivi Cti-LV-l. having received his education under the classic shades of Monticello, he comes to us a cultured son of the land of Washington and Lee. When called upon, as he was on every stand to express himself in regard to our political troubles, he boldly espoused the farmers' cause and varied the monotony of the occasion with a speech redounding to the interest of true democracy, interlarded with brilliant wit and repartee which left his audience in a happy mood and caused them to feel that although now I divided in sentiment, after the 30th of August, they would stand slioul der to shoulder, representing the grand, old Democratic party of the State. Every meeting was graced by the cheering presence of the ladies, which exerted a happy iuflueuce and caused peace and harmony to prevail, their bright smiles polished manners reminding us that Venus and Minerva had not forgetten the fair daughters of Lexington. The bands dispensed their sweetest music and Orphousiike caused the forest to resound with its melodious strains.

To the Editor of the Dispatch: On 27th of August, the second an P it Tk 1 juuui picmc 01 me reaic iiines was held about a mile and a half fron town. The Company, about 3( strong, assembled at Capt. Eargle'i residence and marched to the picnic grounds in front of Mr. Henry Sum' D * iner's home, where they had been preceded by over 300 people. The "tramp, tramp" of the boys in blue as they appeared on the scene with polished gun barrels and fixed bayonets, caused some of the old veterans to drop a silent tear as memory carried them back to the loved ones, who in the days that are gone, went forth at their country's call but never returned. The morning drill over the blue coats were soon dispersed over the grounds in search of the ladies and ere long, music arose with its voluptuous swell, and soft eyes looked love to eyes which spake again. Many a tender word was spoken in addition to the "poetry of motion,v poetry was quoted. Somo of the soldier boys did not think of the "suit of blue," their minds were bent altogether on another suit. The morning hours were spent at the various amusements and about one o'clock dinner was announced. After ii. -* - - - ine sumptuous dinner had been disposed of, Capt. Eargle, a prime favorite with his men, as with every one else, announced that there would be sham battle. The fine maneuvering and steady tiring of the voung soldiers were suggestive of other days, the :lays of lS()l-65, especially so to the Did soldiers whose hearts were aglow with the old ardor which called forth the defiant cheer of the brave patriot. As soon as the immaginarp battle was over the festivities of the afternoon began in earnest, and until dusk, the time was delightfully passed in dancing and other amusements, The leading spirit of the occasion was Uapt. iJ, JR. Eargle, who has always been very warm hearted and generous towards his boys in blue. Ho has worked early and late to make his company a success, and if the Peak Rifles are not very soon one of the leading military organizations of South Carolina, it will be no fault of lis. Visitor.
