In the daily papers of last week ap peared the respectful remonstrance of a committee of gentlemen of Spartanburg, to Gov. Scott, in relation to affairs at Union. "While exempt from distur bance of any kind themselves," the citi zens of that district, "as citizens and neighbors, feeling the obligations on their part," addrus their petition to Gov. Scott, in the hope that such steps may be taken by him as will promote and keep the peace of their sister district, Union. The petition is lengthy and in teresting, and gives the particulars of the late difficulty, its grounds, &c., with which our readers are already familiar, therefore we do not deem it necessary to fill our columns with it. Gov. Scott in a still lengthier commu nication answers "that he is pleased that the citizens of that County are earnestly desirous of peace, but regrets that it is announced in the petition, that an 'at tempt" at "violence" on the part of "any evil-disposed blacks would be met by short and sharp retribution." Comment is scarcely necessary, the citizens of Spartanburg as well as the citizens of other districts, as men feeling the issues at stake, could not have said less in the face of circumstances, or until the executive made some show of exerci sing the authority vested in him. Gov, Scott, says in answer to that portion fj the petition which accuses ;IM of treat ir; :te information relative to the Bates' demonstration "with levity," that "On the contrary, everything that was reasonable and proper was done, and done promptly. It is certainly true that [ did not fully share in the fears of civil disturbance which were felt by the Committee. I had beard too often ex parte-statements of the faults and sins of political Qpponents, to give entire cre dence to one side of a story till the other had been shown, and I say this with no desire or purpose of questioning the in tegrity of the gentlemen of the Commit tee. But I took immediate measures to aseertain, by investigation, what the real facts were. I issued an order to the person above alluded to, as a "negro in cendiary," to abstrain from all violations of the hw, and I censured him for his imprudent and inflammatory language. The investigation made it evident that while he bad said and done that which was prejudicial to the preservation of harmonious re'ations between the races, he had committed, certainly at the time when this investigation took place, no overt act of an illegal character." In coneiusion he says: "I shall leave no eff'ort untried to maintain the peace.. I shall omit no effort to bring to justice all offenders against the laws. I shall make no political opinions a palliation for violation of law. I shall conntenance no armed organ izatons, unauthorized by law, but shall do all in my power to break them up, where they exist. But I shall remember that my power is limi ted, that it is only within the spherd laid down by the Constitution and the laws that I must act. Whatever is prop er, lawful and right for me to do, to maintain peace, secure life, liberty and property, from the rude assaults of r-uf fians of either race, and generally pro mote the public welfare, will be prompt ly done.. Gov. Scott has been accorded credit for "meritorious conduct" by many of the State papers, and we are not dis posed to disavow that he has done some things which are creditable to him, but it is evident to any one that the most of his papers are studied efforts for party purposes and written for tffect, at the North. .This letter in particular. His "peace efforts" are too one-sided to be just, The Legislature. Apology is scarcely necessary for the omission of our usual summary of the hybrid concern, but still give as feasomi, a want of room. Something had to go overboard, and the preference was given to the matter of least interest. Very little of real interest more than the pas sage -of the following bills was accom plished. Bills to extend time for quali fication of county officers; to amend an act to authori'e a loan to redeem bills receivable; to provide for temporary magistrates ; to fix official bonds of cer tain county officers; to determine and perpetuate the homestead, and the Blue Ridge rail road bill. The most interest ing feature of the week was the failure of the military committee to find any arms in the State, subject to the governor's order. Special Notice. Our advertising patrons are earnestly asked to hand in their favors to us on Saturday of this week, or Monday morn ing, the 21st, at farthest, as it is our in tention to issue the next Herald Monday night, instead of Tuesday, in consequence of the meeting to be held on the day last mentioned. We do this that we may be frec to take part in the demonstration with all the license which such holiday wiRl afford. We propose to make a special holiday of it for all hands from the youngest to the oldest, and we respectfully suggest that mer chants and others close their places of business on that day also, that there may be a general turn out and a fitting respect shown to the effort to be made for the advancement of the cause of demo cracy. Let every one close up offices, stores and shops on Tuesday, the 22d. Advertisers please bear this in mind and bring in your favors as above asked. We refer with pleasure to the card of Messrs. Brodie & Co., Factors and Com mission Merchants, North Atlantic ( Wharf, Charleston. This house is well ,I known to the most of our merchants I here, and perhaps to all as a substantial I one, and the gentlemen composing the i firm reliable business men. Planters I and others will consider the facilities of-. fered by them.. Guillett's Cotton Gins. In looking over an interesting pamph let of testimonials, furnished by Mr. C. Graveley, of Charleston, whose card was noticed in last issue, we find the Guil let's Patent Improved Steel Brush Cot ton Gin, most highly commended to the cotton planter by a host of respectable and influential cotton factors who claim a superiority for cotton ginned by these Saws, as well as letters from farmers giving evidence of their satisfaction after trying them. We refer again to Mr. C's, card, and recommend him to planters. Information Wanted, By her mother, of Martha Duffle, who left Charleston about the first of Februa ry last, in company with a number of emigrants, and who, it is supposed, is somewhere in the district of Newberry, or that of Laurens. Any information respecting her will be thankfully re ceived by her mother in C'aarleston, through the Hon. Il. T. Peake, Gen. Sup., S. C., R. R., to whom communica tion respecting her will be addressed. Laurens Herald will confer a favor by extending this notice. Democratic Meetings. There will be two barbecues on the east side of the Great Pee !e in-r, the first at Marion Court House, Oct. 7th, tnd the . .r at Campbell's Bridge, on the day following. At Ninety-Six, on the 18th instant, there will be a grand turn out, as every body is invited. At Edgefield the late Democratic meet ing was attended by 2000 persons. Over one thousand persons were pres ent at the barbecue near Pacolet depot, on the Spartanburg and Union R. R. Large numbers of colored persons were out, and speeches were delivered by white and cclared speakers. The largest "spread" in the way of a Democratic barbecue will come off on the 15th at Chester. Unlimited pro visions are being furnished. The 17th has been selected for a mass meeting for the people of Yorkville, and the 18th for those of Rock Hill. At Timmonsville, Darlington Dist., on the 5th, there was an immense- demo cratic gathering, of ladies, gentlemen and freedmen. At Sumter on the 8th of October, there will be a general democratic holi day. Merchants are to close their stores, and everybody will participate. It's to be a jubilee. Good Nuts for Bads to Crack. A colored man in Washington city re cently was lectured by a Racaical p,oliti cian for becoming "restive in the traces." The colored man replied: "Under your teaching we have alienat ed from us the mass of the white people North as well as South; you bave got the offices and the emoluments, while we have done the work and bave to stand out in the cold. -For one, I am done with you."' A business letter from New Orleans to a gentleman in Atlanta, referring to to the political situation says: "I am glad to inform you that I have never known such a change in the colored population as has taken place here in the last month. I don't think there will be one sixth of the negro voters who will vote the radical ticket in November, in Louisiana and Mississippi." The following is something new, and one of the most strikingly attractive fea totes we have yet seen. Think of five hundred ladies on horseback in grand D.mocratic phalanx : A telegram from the State of Iowa, re g>unting the enthusiasm and success of s weral 1)emocratic demonstrations, says rf one, that there were 500 ladies on horseback in the procession. ~'he States were also represented by thirty-six young girls, dressed in red, white and bue. The attractions were so great that the number of people who assembled was not less than 10,000.. A great gathering of blacks took place it Abbeville on the 5th, and was any thing but a successful demonstration. 'he negroes were disappointed in what they heard, the speakers in whom their hopes were centred, were constrair e I rrom conviction to warn them to be peaceable and quiet, to avoid all conduct wich might precipitate a conflict be tween the races. So it works. Radical [is is receiving its death blow. The Greenville Mountaineer learns that the negroes who have been led by Bates, in Union district, have wisely concluded to be led by the villian no longer, and have entered into a written contract to abide by the laws and keep ihe peace. A Colored Democratic Club was or ganized in Aike-n, S. C. Quite a large number have alre zdy signed the roll. The Greensburg (End.) Expositor, eretofore a republican sheet, has de lared for Seymour and Blair. It says that "the German republicans of Indiana re abandoning that party by thousands ad enrolling themselves among the sup. orters of Seymour and Blair." They ;ee how the wind blows and act wisely. The Ohio State Journal, a violent radi cal sheet, frantically exclaims: For Heaven's sake, friends, work! Work, from- this day until election, or a'e are beaten in Ohio, in Indiana, in 'ennsylvania, in New York, and in the rhole country ! -. A correspondent of the New York litizen, writing from Missouri, says : I ave cheering news from Missouri. I tave no desire to mislead any one. Re iable citizens inform me that the State s sure for Seymour and Blair. The )emocrats have made strong nomina ions in each Congressional District, and A tremendous asssemblage of two or three thousand people gathered in New bern last Tuesday to witness the pre sentation of a flag by the ladies to the Central Seymour and Blair Club. Thir ty-seven young ladies were carried through the streets in a large triumphal car, and the flag was carried by a large number of young Misses. Sixteen office-holders, five women, six boys and a short-tailed dog constituted "a large and enthusiastic Grart meeting" in Illinois. Wesely Hays of Spartanburg, and three more leaguers of Anderson, have become disgust,d with the scallawags and turned to Democracy for refuge. the Elective Franchise. To the People of South Carolina. It was referred to the State Central Executive Committee, by the late Demo cratic Convention, to inquire into the disabilities imposed, by reason of the war, upon a portion of our people, re straining them from the exercise of the elective franchise in South Carolina ; and to publish the conclusion attained, for the information of the people of the State. The committee, in the discharge of that duty, announce that they have examined the subject, and beg to state : 1. That no such disabilities now exist by or under the Acts of CoG;ress, known as the Reconstruction Act, the State having been officially declared to be in the Union. 2. That no such disabilities exist under the so called amendment, known as the fourteenth amendment to the Constitu tion of the United States, the disabilities therein expressed having reference to officeholding, and not to voting. 3. That no such disabilities exist by the so-called State Constitution of 1868, under which it is claimed that the State has been reconstructed and restored to the Union. The undersigned, therefore announce that no such disabilities exist by force of any law, or supposed law, or authority whatever ; and they urge their hitherto disfranchised fellow-citizens, in every part of the State, to exercise their right to vote at the coming election for President and Vice-President, of which right they have been so long deprived by military power. By order of the EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. OITa FIRST RADICAL COURT A FAILURE. -According to a recent Act of the Bo gus Legislature, the Court of Common Pleas was ordered to sit at Marion, last Monday, but his Judgeship, Jaybird M. Rutland, failed' to come, although, on Sunday afternoon, there was a large number of his Judgship's sable brothers and sisters at the depot, ready to grasp his hn,and hug and kiss him too, and "lay drcases 'fore 'im." We presume the reason that his Judgeship didn't come, was because he could not "raise the wind" high enough to pay his railroad fare. NASHvILLE, September 19.-The militia bill, as modified by the Senate, was re jected by the House. A conference comn mnittee will bc appointed, with little pro bability of r co,ciling differences. LnA.E-Thle Legislature remained in session. t91 mid-nigh't and passed the mioiiffidlitia bill, which~ is now a lawv. Before the militia can be sent to any County appEcation must be made to the Governor by ten unconditional Union men, or, three justices of the peace, belonging' to said County, based upon the allegation that civil law cannot be enforced with.oit military aid. A despatch to the New York World estimates the Republican majority in Maine at from 17 to 20,000. The re turns come in slowly, but seem to be conclusive that nearly every town shows large Republican gains over last year, when the majority was 11,000. There have been small Democratic gains in several towns. A Iater dispatch says 26 towns give Chamberlain 25,229, and Pillsbury 17 548. Last year, the same towns gave1 . Chamberlain 18,187; Pillsbury 13,993 Republican gain 3,487. The following is a despatch of the Tennessee Committee to the Legislature: "The President wi!! sustain civil auth orities. Orders will be issuedl to depart mnent commanders to sustain and ail civil authorities, and a suficient force will be furnished to accomplish such purpose. EXPEDITIoUs.-We are informed that Mr. Hlammet and the South Carolina Railroad has now made an arrangement for loaded cars to run through, without breaking bulk at Columbia.-Phoenix. The post office at Huntersville, Green ville County, has been re-established, and Mr. Nathan League appointed post master. The office s-ill be at the resi dence of Mr. WV. B.

The Laurensville Herald records ani unfortunate homicide which occurred ati that place, on Thursday, the 3d inst., viz, the killing of Tabby Simpson, a freedman, by W. H. Eichelberger. NEW HAVEN, September 10.-A pro cession of boys in blue, was attacked with stenes, this evening, and several 1 hurt; three dangerously. Five notoriously bad negroes were found dead swinging by the neck to limbs in the woods in Golbert County, ~ Ala., a few days since. They had been. guilty of making threats against the t whites.

Subscribe for it from si [For the Herald I Honor et Patria. I believe I demonstrated, as clearly as )ossible in my last communication, the mbounded abyss between Democracy tnd Radicalism. The prominent question, the only one vhich exists to-day, is the complete re urn, and without condition of thi Statcs >f the South to equality in the Union, ;he abolition of that part of the laws allcd the Reconstruction Acts, which ake off from these States a part <.f their onstitutional sovereignty ; and the re ;toration of federal rights and duties. The lost cause is the lost cause ? Let he responsibility of it fall on those who, )y their selfishness and indifference con ributed to its loss. But, let us bestow >ur praises and our respects upon the memory of those who have fallen on the cattle field. Slavery is dead ! Secession is dead! What we want to-day is a programme isengaged of bate, revengefulness or re taliation. We need principles to prevail by means of the right and the constitu Lion. Let our rights and duties be deter mined as follows: Fidelity to the Consti tution ; Union; States rights; liberty of :itizens, and the principles of a free gov ernment. All who will stick to these principles ire certain to see the success of justice nd humanity; consequently the neces sity to participate in the triumph of Dem Dcracy in the presidential election. I can not recommend too actively, my friends, the Democrats, to guide our populations with coolness in the plain road of duty as pointed out by the logic Df events. It would be unfortunate-that recrimination ard perhaps threats, dic tated by a confidence of success, or sug ;ested by the Union of the Dewocratic party with the South, should raise sus picions among populations acting under the pressure of a quiet patriotism and the strength of the right. I pray the sincere Democrats to re member all the attempts of our enemies Radicals), and those that they will try to multiply in order to represent the Democrats as ready -to light the torch of :ivil war in the South. This election trick is too plain to influence in any way the impartial and reflecting nind ; but, unfortunately, the majority of the hu man race is very easily deceived. It is our duty to caution the public against e-ery political speculation, and, particu larly to not give any appearance of truth to the interested accusations of our ene mies. The boisterous and disorderly :onduct of the Radicals of the South, and the deeds of violence tried or perpe rated by them, form an astonishing con rast with the moderation of the Demo :rts, notwithstanding all the provoca tionsgiren them. 10 is impossible to 3tabli.<h against the Demnocrats a single ct of resistance against the constituted uthorities, or any riotous assembly ; ahen we see every day such acts perpe ~rated by the Radicals, and such meet ngs held by them. In different States we see the Radicals ssaulting the negroes who declare them elves Democrats, and murdering some f them, with the hope to intimidate hose lately enfranchised, who, knowing ~o-day b'heir true interests, seem disposed o abandon the Radicals to stand by the Democratic flag. These lamentable crimt.s, are the con ~equence of the doctrines preached to the enfranchised race by the contempti >1e adventurers who have tried to make Sfootstool of the poor ignorant negroes, without any consideration for the disas ;rous result that they can bring upon :hem. I am speaking of that gang that >ur people call carpet-baggers, of these :ontemptible political adventurers of the \rth who came in crowds uin the reor ganized States, and who occupy all the >fcial positions under the sliicld of the nilitary government, who brought them t their back, and who constantly are >lotting against order and peace iii order o secure per fas et nefas their usurped lower. These adventurers, to win the confi lence of the negroes, told them that they vere invested with every kind of rights, Ld promised great things to them, but hey have been careful to not let them tow their duties ; they never learned hem that the first of all security, in natters of right, is respect to the rights >f others. The Radical party really is the party f disorder, and its tendency is to bring bout a civil war. A great many of the mfranchised who are endowed with nat iral good intelligence begin to know hese treacherous and dangerous coun ;ellors and are eager to abandon them, md to rally with the white population md side with them in the interest of rder, liberty and prosperity to all. Now is the struggle in favor of Demo racy against the anarchical tendencies of he radical party, which is nothing else ut a party of plunderers and devasta ors. As to these few miserable indi iduals, degenerate sons, born and raised n the south ; but who, to satisfy their egaded and shameful ambition, have etrayed their race and associated with he enemies of their native States ; to bese renegades, I must plainly tell my pinion:. 1 believe that you are doing a ery dirty business ! Censure, reproach, 1 that you do not like in the govern ent or in its opposite party, but, for ~od sake, do not enter into partnership ~ith the enemnies of your families, of our friends, of your State. Do not~ ex ose them to the horrors of a civil war. emember that it is upon this sacred md that you rceived the light; your mbition must be that she receive your :mains, and that your relatives and -iends may bless your memory !! ! May the great architect of the universe ardon your apostacy.!!! M. E. T. The above communication was neces rily omitted last issue for want of LOCAL ITEMS. Beware of inquisitive persons, a won derful curiosity to know all is generally accompanied with as great an itch to tell it again. We call attention to the sale of Furni-. ture, &c., to take place at the residence of Mr. Zealy, on Saturday next. Many articles will be disposed of at this sale, which most people need, and we advise a large attendance. WREN & WUEELER.-These distin guished artists still spread their banner to the breeze, thus inviting visitors to their gallery, where can be seen speci mens of their work in every con ceivable style and size. The pictures taken at their gallery give the utmost satisfaction. If there be any who have not paid them a visit for the purpose of securing a fac simile, we advise them to do so at once. CATERPILLARs.-We regret to learn that the caterpillar is ravaging the cotton in and about Pomaria. Col. G. HI. Chapman, an old farmer of that section, says that this destructive insect is all over his plantation, and he fears that his crop will be destroyed. He states this is the first time in his fifty years' expe rience that he has ever seen one. We hope his fears will not be realized. He is certain that it is not the army woim, but the genuine caterpillar. ALMOST A Row.-LTnder the influence of newly distilled corn, or peach, or per haps old Rye, two or three Representa tive men of a colored character, and at tached respectively to the Democratic and League parties, had a hitch one day last week, on Main Street. Party feeling ran high. and wool would have been torn from the place where it grows, to such an extent perhaps that no hair would have been left on de top ob de head of one or more of these extremists, but for the potent influence of the li quor imbibed "previously and before" the tilt. We feel ashamed for that dem ocratic negro, and advise him to keep out of bad company in future. Nobody was hurt. COLORED DEMOCRATIC C1B.-On MQfn day night last, we are gratified to say, a meeting was held in the Court House, at the instance of a few influential and respectable colored men, acting under advice of the Executive Committee, for the purpdse of forming a colored club. The meeting was well attended, by the colored men, and a number of prominent citizens addressed them. At the close, a club was organized, with but a few members, it is true, but the piromiise of increase is felt. On Thursday night, there will be another meeting, and the colored people are expected to attend in full, and organize for Tuesday r ext. We mention the name of Louis Butler, as~ the leader and mover, and an out and out democrat. In former days the body servant of Gen. Butler, lhe cannot forget. the lessons instilled into bin), when peace and plenty reigned, and would now restore the good old days if possi ble, and we think it more than possible. Be sensible colored friends, ere it be too late. REV. J. T. ZEALY.--The annobnce ment that this gentleman has resigned his pastorship of. the Baptist Church in this town, and that he is forced by the limited support afforded bin) by his school, to seek anothier State, and a wider and more prosperous field, will be received with deep regret by his friends, and the community generally. Mr. Zealy, during his sho.rt residence in ogr midst, has endeared himself to the pec pIe by his gentle, unassuming manners, and his great usefulnesse, not only in his ministerial character, but as an instruc tor of youth, and the severing of these tics will give miuch sorrow, not only to him, but to those with whom he has been so intimately connected, in the triple re.lation of pastor, teacher and friend. We trust that he may find a warmi and hearty welcome n here he goes, that his earniest piety and eloquent teachings, will be appreciated, and that his spii-itual and temporal comfort's may be many. SBEAUTIFUL CAGE.-Promlinenlt on the road leading from town towards the Lutheran Coliege stands a very pretty cottage, lately fitted up by--, a well known and popular citizen, and made as bright, comfortable and cozy as art could make it. Every one will recognize the place by its description, and the passer by with a casual glance will mere ly note the attractive outward adorning, and will not, like us, look beyond the portals and into the inner sanctuary. There we behold our benedict friend, "cribbed, cabined and confined," the music of h;is heart still and silent, no gentle wife to toucb the strings7(aot of his purse,) but of his beart, no patter of little feet to wake the echoes of that still mansion, or clamber on the knees of its lonely occupant, or ride horse on his feet, or with sweet baby lisp say p)lease pa 'candy.' Sad thought ! a beautiful cage, attractive, bright, happily con trived to make two people happy, but lacking the one br'itparticular feature to make it a paradise We sympathise with our dear friendi, unadvisedly how ever, for really we do not know whither, he wishes a mate to. teIp occupy his cage or not. We only think that he should have. one, and give . vent to our sympath.y through the lov'e wo bear him. What a rare chance here, ladies ! Why don't some of you catch, him? Remiem her, if you try, though, that lhe has lived through the period in which birds nire caut,t w,it.; ch,f HARRIET Boyn, the wife of the Rev. J. M. Boyd, a Local Preacher of the Newberry Circuit, died September 4th, 1868. She was born in the city of Columbia, Oec tober 22nd, 1839, and was left whbout a mother at 2} years of age. Was raised and educated by her Aunt, Mrs. S. Cromer, who is now a member of the family. Joined the M. E. Church, South, in 1851. Married in 1854. And was happily converted to God in 1855 at the Rutherford.Camp Ground. Her illness was short yet she was not confound ed. Her faith was strong. And her hope as an anchor to the soul, sure and steadfast. She gave her father-in-law the Rev M. N. Boyd, to understand that all was peace and calm. And in a conversation with her hus band on the morning of her death, abs. I now trust wholly in Jesus. I go bs our two little ones gone before. And turning her bright eyes to her buund, will you not bring the others with you. And said she, if I am sent as a ministering spirit to the heirs of salvation, I will come to you. And when about to cross the river o , her husband asked her-if she ow.t91G of any text of scripture appropriate to her pres, ent feelings. 'he said with emphasis. "Ot death where is thy sting."
