The Blue Ridge ail - Road How Not to Do it. At.the Blue Ridge Railroad. Con vention held in Charleston last 'week, Judge Reed, from a co-nmittee ap pointed to cuft-witbe.. companies or individuals ownuio tfie Isetions of.1 the Blue Ridge Railroad within their) respectiVe -States rported. th-.litiga tion between theirstes of t.henort gage and the assignees in bankruptcy remains in stat-a quo._ But a letter! was read from the President of the Knoxville and Charleston Railroad, in which it is stated that its owners, with home aid, can complete the road north of Maryville to the Tennessee line when the building of that portion south of said line is guaranteed, and that being once at the State termiuus, they would be willing to consolidate under one management, under justand equitable terms. In a loog speech, Julge Reed declared that it was not intended to ask Charleston to sub scribe largely now, and it was a mis take to throw a wet blanket over the project as had been done. He said that the matter had not been brought properly to the attention of the people of Charleston; that the South Caro lina Railroad was not favorable to the project, and that the Spartanburg and Asheville Railroad had absorbed a portion of the interest properly belong ing to the Blue Ridge. When the right time comes, Charleston will put up its money. Other speeches were made, and something like a breeze prevailed, owing to statements in a newspaper and in the convention from some Charleston delegates that the city was not ready to put a cent more in it until there was evidence that other communities equally interested would do their part, and until there was as surance that the line would be com pletedon the other side of the moun tains. General Harris6n introduced the folto*irg-resolution, which was also adopte r Resolved, -That a committee of two from the States of Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Tennes see, and three from the city of Charles -ton, be appointed to memorialize Con gress on. the subject of aid for a grand freight. railway from Knoxville to Chairleston. The following committee As an nounced: South Carolina-el. W. Harrison, B. F. Perry, WV. L. Trenholm, Geo. W. Williams, 3. B. E. Sloan. Georgia-A. S. Erwin, E. M. Ruck North Caroina Dr. W. L. Love, -Col. J.. 0. Robinson. * Tennessee-Dr. Morrow, C. W. Charlton. In an editorial article, the News and Courier affirms that Charleston is still in favor of building the Blue *Ridge Railroad, and will do her part when the tiine comes; and that it is a serious mistake to suppose that the South CarQlina Railroad is not favor ebTe to the Blue Ridge project. It ~ is to us one of the things past finding out why Charleston and the South Carolina Railroad management allow so much wrangling to go on with their up-country connections, and why they do not compose these vital inter ests and make them-work together har - ~ moniously and with mutual profit. Last fall, when the directors of the Spartanburg and Asheville Railroad saw fit to make a change in the incumn bent of the office of Treasurer and Secretary, there was quite a tempest in a teapot about it. The Spartan burg and Asheville Road was told to *take care of -itself; that Charleston would have no more to do with it; that she would seek another outlet to the Northwest, &c., &c. Now, here are the representatives of that "outlet" -- (prospective) received with a cold shoulder, if not chilled with a "wet blanket." Anderson and Pendleton are:about to establish wagon lines to a point on the Air Line Road, and drummers from Atlanta sell goods all along the lines of our roads as low *down as Columbia and Camden. These are not all the evidences that an an tagonism about freights, the shipment of cotton, &c., is springing up between -our extreme points, our city by the sea and our fine, productive and enterpris * ing up-country and Piedmont section. - -The intelligence, business tact. eapital, enterprise and regard for the true wel . fare of Charleston ought to put an end to these unseemly disputes and dis * cords, and draw these outlying inter ests mrore closely to her. * There are circles within circles, we kno)w, gnd perhaps rebates on cotton have something to do with this strain .ing to make it follow a fixed, defined - line of transportation against what the shipner considers his interest and right. Perhaps, again, the South Cai-olina Railroad is watching and waiting its opportunity to purchase the Blue Ridge Railroad in the State, and hence these varying whims, this inter est to-day and indifference to-morrow. But.-we don't think railroad coquetry will pay even in making a bargain. [Columba-.Daily Register.

A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE. The Herald is in the highest respect a Fam ily Newspaper, devoted to - the material in terests 01 the people of this County and the State. It circulates extensively, and as an Advertisin- medium offers unrivalled ad vantages. IFor Terms, see first page. Edgefield's Treasurer. The flight of Edgefield's County Treasurer has left that County in a bad fix financially-morally and social ly, however, the damage aone is slight. He can be spared and with him others of the same stripe. About $70,000 of the County tax is unaccounted for, except $19,000, which the Advertiser says Judge Carpenter confesses to. This is a nice state of affairs truly. The Advertiser takes the matter phil osophically and consoles the defrauded tax-payers by saying that though Me Devitt is gone, there is some comfort yet, for Paris Simpkins is left, and McDevitt's dog, and the glorious memory of McDevitt's virtues. What more can the people want under the circumstances ? Spartanburg and Union Rail Road. The announcement made recently that two hundred convicts from the State Penitentiary would soon be put to work on the rail road, is now under stood to mean that the work alluded to iq the continuation of the Spartan burg and Union R-,il Road from Als ton to Columbia, active steps for which are now being made. The connection we learn will be made near Strothers. This is made necessary by the certain accomplishment of the Spartanburg and Asheville Rail Road, one of the most important projects of the time the great results of which will be seen at no distant day. We congratulate the people along that line, and espe cially now the direction of the 8. & U. R. R., and its worthy Superinten dent, Capt. Davies. The course, too, of the Governor and directors of the Penitentiary is to be commended, the benefit of which will be felt in a two fold measure Laurents Court. The Berald says that Solicitor Fleming on the opeoing of court made a motion to overthrow the grand jury, on the ground of its illegality. Judge Northrop, however, ruled otherwise, when the regular-business proceeded. His charge to the grand jury was well timed, able and full, special stress be ing laid upon the crime of arson. -It is said also that he gave the Solicitor a sharp reprimand in open court on his besetting sin. The case of Messrs. G. W.. and W. L. Shell, charged with the killing of Crews, excited much interest. The jury in making up their verdict of ac quittal were out but half an hour. The Sessions and Civil dockets were pretty well cleared by Wednesday last. when the Equity. business was en tered. The Herald adds: "Judge Nor throp, by his apparent ability and courtesy, has made quite a favorable impression, so far, upon the bar and the people. He announced in the outset his hoors for the transaction of the business ->f the Court, which in deed sounded business-like, and snuffed of adamantine and kerosene. He in timated very clearly, if the business on the T)ockets required it, to 'strike a light.' His hours, he announced, would be from 9 o'clock A. M. to 11 P. M.: from 8 to 7 o'clock P. M., and if the' business required it, from 8 to 11 o'clock P. M., or even later, if emergencies rendered it necessary. It did become necessaxy, it seems, on Wednesday, as the above programme was tully carried during the day, and continued at night from 8 to 101 o'clock. -This is working with a will -'making hay' even after the sun ceases to shine. The Last of the Harmon MYur derers. We gather a few more particulars as to the last act in that tragedy, from the Abbeville Press and Banner. At the first fire all fell, except Ste phen Lake, who remained standing a few minutes. Soon after negroes who went tsee the bodies, reported Davis silalive, Subsequent shots were Ithen fired, and when the bodies were afterwards seen, Davis' head was found shot to pieces. Some few negroes guarded the place on Thursday, but left at night, being afraid to stay longer. On the afternoon of Friday, he decaying bodies had become very offensie, and a pit eight feet long was du by meroa,whn the wer buried been allayed, and both whites and blacks feel comfortable and relieved. Nothing positive is known as to the whereabouts of the two women, Betty q Perrin and Tilda Holloway, who, t though guilty equally with the others, ( were turned loose and told to depart. d The report that they had been drowned has no foundation, and there can be no. doubt they are either secreted a very closely near by the scene, or made , such extraordinary haste to get away , as that all-trace of them is lost. The n friends and relatives of the dead seem ed to have..arud very little for them, t some of. whom never went near the s bodies at all. - The jury were in session an entire I week, and labored assiduously-and , though they accomplished a great deal, it is thought that if they had e continued to sit longer their labors would have been rewarded with still e further discoveries, as there seems to t be no doubt that a man by the name of Cheathaw, and another by the name of Chiles, were present at the murder. It is said that Coroner Barker and his clerk, who, at the time the firing com menced, were engaged in preparing additional papers, immediately fled from the scene, and they were not par ticular as to their mode of flight, and Sheriff Richardson, as soon as he was released, also spread himself and made remarkable time. The following comment on the s lynching we copy from the New York World : The wholesale lynching in South Carolina, though there was nothing political in its character, had its ori gin in some measure in p6litics. In that negro-ridden State, the natural consequence -of Radical misrule has been a lax. administration of justice, especially where colored men were con6erned. The people at last,. tired of dilatory or corrupt courts, insecure jails and easily obtained pardons, and when the Harmons, old, feeble and in offensive folk, were* knocked on the head and had their throats cut by a gang of murderers, they took the scoundrels and put them to death. The lynching was conducted with un usual deliberation ; the vigilantes made no effort to disguise themselves or avoid yesponsibility for their act, which was done in broad day and be,fore the whole population, which, without an exception, approved it. Altogether, the execution is one of the most re markable that has been recorded on this side of the Roc~ky Mountains. and one that should not be classed with the exhibitiong of mob Jaw so frequent in the South and West. Editorial Review. There are thirteen Vice-Presidential candidates for each party. The warfare over the estate ot the sewing machine Singer is still carried on between his two surviving wives. The next annual convention of the Sunday Schools of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, will be held at Wesley Chapel, Darlington Circuit, July 14. The Turk is still very unwell; very little prospect of his final recovery ; he has many eminent doctors-Bis mark, Gortschakoff, Andrassy and others-but he has no faith in them. The celebration of the birthday of Queen Victoria at Petersburg, Va., by the recent British settlers and na tives was a grand affair; harmony abundant, centennial feeling and plen ty of champagne. The population of Greenville is: White males, 1,661; white females, 1,627; number of whites, 3,288; col ored males, 1,283; colored females, 1,197; number of colored, 2,470; total population, 5,758. Highwaymen have captured and robbed the stage coach from San An tonio to Luling, Texas ; the passen gers were stripped of all valuables. This is a great ways from Dallas, however, and the friends of the late emigrants to Texas need not be un easy. The .News and Courier very per. tinently says: "'We cannot believe that the Greenville Democrats will allow the Earle libel case to so divide them that the Republicans shall have any earthly chance of carrying the county. To lose the mountain strong holds is to break the backbone of the Democracy. Our friends will not, we are confident, allow personal differ enes to keep them apart on election day." Reports from the far West state that the Indians attacked Custer City on the 19th and burned an ammuni tion house in the centre of the town, The explosion destroyed several houses. The person bringing the information to Omaha left Custer at daylight on the 20th. Captain Edgan had return ed to Fort Laramie from a scout. HeI found 600 Indians in the act of attack. ing an ox train, and drove them north ward. Details of outrages are horn FOR THE HERALD. Musings from Pomaria. MR.

AGRICULTURAL. t The farmers are busy harvesting; t :>me complain of the rust in the I heat, and are fearful that a half crop ( rill be the result. The oat crop is i ot as abundant as was anticipated. E Sery one reports good stands of cot on and corn; and, contrary to your I ound advice, they have planted more .< f the former than the latter. They i ope to get rich (and of course they rill), even if cotton is ten cents per ound, and they are compelled to pur- 4 hase all their provisions from foreign narkets. When will our people be ome wiser? (When they get down o the last round of the ladder.-ED.) MATRIMONIAL. Marriages seem to be the order of he day-ome are trying and succeed ng, others are trying and not succeed ng, (we for instance) to enter the )Hssful realms of matrimony. Mr. 3. B. Schumpert lately double shuffled )ff the coil of .single blessedness, and inked his fortunes -with those of a .fiss Nates from Prosperity. Joy and iappiness to both of them, and may )oth live to see the two hundredth anni rersary of American Independence, d may it be a source of much pleas ire to them to fondle their great grand -hildren on their knees. And, Again, the unusual spell of quietude )f our town (you know the town ex ,ends several miles "o'er hill and rale") was broken by the recent iymeneal copartnership of Mr. John 3. Swygert and Miss Mamie E. Wicker, the transaction occurring at he residence of the bride's father, on rhursday, the 25th uIt., in the pres ,ce of a large concourse of people, he seal being given by the Rev. Mr. Eerbert. We happened (by i-nvita ion) to be present on the joyful occa ion, and ye blind.followers of Cupid! We don't like to betray secrets, but re saw something that night which :onvinced us of the power of this rod of Love. The eatables were all bhat the most fastidious epicurean ould desire. The bride and groom ooked their prettiest-the former sur passing by far the latter. SLEIGHT-OF-HAND. Our medical friend Dr. J.-A. Berly had his hen-roost lifted to the tune of twenty-five of his largest and finest hickens not long since.;, he is certain that his table has not been blessed with them. He seemed terribly mor tified to find in the morning most of his Shanghais, Cocfiins, and "that large speckled hen, too," hoisted from their quiet perches by- some one was quiet an expert in the sleight-of-hand business. Se says he "can't stand it," but we are slightly inclined to.the opinion that he will have it to do. Mr. T. W. Holloway reports two of the hogs as failing to come to "taw." They may have unconsciously strayed into somebody else's possession. He thinks some "nigger" has stolen them, but that is an unjust accusation, for the negroes in South Carolina have stopped stealing-they just take and say nothing more about it. Since we are on this thought, we are satisfied that there are some of the "cutest" and most brazen-faced rogues in dhis omuinity thai can be started any where. They can steal all you own and face you with-as much grace as the old devil himself. .MASONIC DEDICATION. Madame Rumor whispers that the Masons propose having a huge time on the 24th inst., in dedicating the new hall; prominent speakers have been selected for the occasion. Whether it is intended to rake up a picnic, bar becue, or anything hin the eating line, has not yet been developed. -POLITICAL. Stock in the Democratic club can be bought at a slight premium. The people in this county are beginning to realize the pitiable condition into which we. are plunged by Radical mis rule, and are beginning to open their eyes (and pockets) to the sad reality of unjust taxation. The Union League continues to bold its regular meetings--at least we would judge so from appearances. It may be that they are training "the young idea how to shoot" quiet and inoffensive merchants, or educating them in the soience of burglary, arson and murder, as they did their late lamepted Secretary, the hell-too-good for Thompson. DELINQUENTS. A few days since and one might have seen the officer of the law, the eputy tax-gatherer, requesting pri vate conversations with some colored delinquent (of course) taxpayers. "Mister, i'se.gwine to pay 'em as soon is I git de money." "Bose, can't you wait till de nex time ?" "No, sir; oow or go to jail." So they have to ork it over or board at the county's xpense in Sheriff Carrington's ele ant brick mansion. LITERARY.

The fight between the. friends of he rival Republican candidates is all he more bitter, because they honestly I ielieve that. the mat who gets the ,incinnati nomination, whoever he nay be, will be elected beyond all per dventure. They say that, for sixteen rears, their party has proved itself, at he polls, to be far stronger, numeri ally, than the Democratic party; that t is still. stronger ; that its nominee j vill receive, as before, the substantial I ;upport offe banking, railroad and )ther large interests; finally, that the Republican party has already posses ion of the Government, "with all that hrase implies." "We have," they say, "the money, he votes, the offices, and the brains 3ecessary to put our resources to the est use. We are bound to win. You Democrats are fighting to obtain, for your respective friends, only the bar ren honor of a nomination. Hence ou can afford to be cool, calm and -ourteous. You are fighting among yourselves for a shadow-we for a sub stance. The only man with whom you would have any show of winning he coming fight you cannot nominate; nd the very fact that you will not, id cannot, nominate Samuel J. Til len, will operate. powerfully against e man you. do put up at St. Louis, whoever he may. e. The fact will go Forth to the people of the United tates that the scoundrel element of bhe ~Democratic party of New York controlled the St. Louis Convention, ind compelled it to throw overboard a man known, far.and wide, as a Re Former, because he had preferred the nterests of the people to those of the party, whenever the two came in con iet, and had, in the strict line of his duty, squelched corrupt men of what ever politics. As sure as you are born, he St. Louis Convention ' will throw Tilden overboard, and choose some candidate who may have more or less laims on the party, but none on the people at large. And it is only un der a standard bearer whose improved opportunities have given him a claim upon the Independent vote, and upon that of disaffected Republicans, that the Democracy can hope to win. And even then, they have bub a slim chance of success; the resources of the Re publican party being so large and varied." I give you, above, the substance of the remarks of dozens of leading Re publicans with whom I have conversed, and with whom I have heard others converse, during the past few days. I make neither note nor comment. DECORATION DAY AT ARLINGTON. The formal decoration of the 16,000 graves of Union soldiers whose. re mains repose on Arlington Heights, opposite Washington, took place to day (May 30th) with the usual im pressive services. A few years ago, a large number of persons in Washing ton. desiring to pay a tribute of respect to th.e few Confederate dead interred in the cemetery, went to Arlington for the purpose of bestrewing-their graves with flowers; but in attempting to 'do so, met with the most violent opposition from the Grand Army, whose officers ordercd the Federal troops present to "remove all rebel decorations." And this was actually done, to the disgust, even, of pro nounced Union men. Since that time no attempt has been made by the dead Confederates to decorate their graves on the same day that the Grand Army honors the Federal dead with loyal demonstrations. It having been announced that the friends of the Oonfederate dead at Arlington would this year decorate these graves on the 30th of May, one of these friends caused a card to be inserted in the Fvening Star, the day before, stating that the report was incorrect, and that the decoration referred t6~would. take place on the 3d of June. In his card says: "We did entertain the hope, how ever, that an invitation would have been extended to the Southern Memo rial Association of this city, on this Centennial year, to join the Grand Army ,that all distinctions might thus be o literated; but such not being their wish or purpose, (meaning the wish arnd purpose of the political wire pullers who control the Grand Army f the Republic,) the friends of the onfederate dead will Dot intrude upon the ceremonies of to-morrow." jOEI; ?4.RKER,, who has received such an excellent 'send-off" for the Presidency from New Jersey, is the only Democratic overnor that State has had since 861, and thereby hangs.a tale. iMr. Parker is a very popular man, espe ~ialy among thie workingmen of New Tersey, and hIs administration was so ;atisfactory that even his political op >onents united in eulogising it.

The great number of visitors in Philadel,~ phia, during the Centennial Exhibition, ne cessitates the opening of private .homes for board and lodging. Many Christian families, who are unwilling to open their doors to a promiscuous public, have arranged a plan by which they give admission to Christians and their friends. This will be equally pleasant to Christiab people abroad who may not wish to be associated with the great variety of characters brought together in hotels and public boarding-houses. In order to have this select class the price of board is generally much lower than pre vails by other arrangements, varying from $5 to $1( a week, and from $1 to $2.50 per day. Each family fixes its own price, and receives its pay direct from Its guest.
