Tho JSIcctloit, At Walhalla, ?nd, BO far as wo oan learn, tmghout the County, passed off quietly. Not -ripple of oxoitomont excited hore, and wo hoard no one hurrah for Hampton or anybody ??Iso. The peoplo voted and loft, at no (imo -during the day there being abovo twenty mon ?bout the Court House. Thc volo was light, Walhalla falling off 160 from Us usual poll. Tho total V?te at Walhalla was 432, as folio wa: Hampton 861, tho roinaindor of Stato tloicet 348, Aiken 342, Ensor 88; County ticket rang ing from 838 to 849: Tho Radicals generally voted for Ensor atone, omitting both the State, it?nd County ttokot. A few colored mon voled tho straight Democratic ticket, and a few others eoratohed Alkc? alono. Tho volo of tho County fa oxpeotod to fall short of tho volo in 1870 by ?, 400 or 600. While this is truo, the majority for Aiken will be as largo as In 1870, from tho fact .that tb? -negro vote is short. V? <Upto the hour of going to press on Wednes day cvoning cloven out of fourtoon precincts hav.O been officially Leard from, showing tho following result: Telal vote polled, 1,697; Hamp 'ton,'1,389; Simpson, 1,381; remainder of Stato rtiokct between 1,382 aud 1,084. Aiken for ?ongre?s, 1,800: Ensor for Congress, 217. Tho fJouaty. ticket runs near together and about with tho State tloket. Negroes generally voted for Ensor clone. The three precincts to hoar from ?nnncrt incrcftso tho total vote nbovo 1,850, being a falling-off of above-seven hundred votes from tlio poll of 1870. It is believed those precincts Will poll an almost solid Democratic volo. It ia to be regretted that our people havo'heca so lax in turning out to volo, oven though there is me opposition. Tho telograph informs us that tho Demo crats havo been sucoessfnl throughout tho State. Tho reported majorities are: Abbe ville 4,000; Aiken, 3,500; Barnwell, 2,500, Fairfield, 2,500; Darlington, l,5.Q0f ttar'too, 1,500; Union, 1,000. . " " ..?BABL?STOV,,"S<''CC Nov. 5.-ll P M TEvory coji&ty hoard from, so far, except ono, --b^rTgono D?mocratie by increased majorities. - Evins and Aiken, Democratic Congressmen, ro-olootod in?he od aud 4th Districts; Tillman, Democrat, cleotod ovor Smalls, Republican, by 7,000 to 8,000 majority in tho 5th District, O'Connor, Domoorat, is elected ovor Mackey, Republican, most probably by a small major ity in tho 2d District; and Richardson, o Democrat, most probably olootod ovor Rainoy, Ropublioan, in 1st District. No riot or dis? ' .iturbanoe of any kind or dogreo roported in .any part of the State. Tn? Weekly Trains. The railroad authorities have discontinued the Vanning of daily trains from Anderson to Walhalla, and will horoaftor run tri-wookly trains between those points, loaving Walhalla Mondays, Wednosdnys ?ad Fridays, and ^returning Tuesdays, Thursdays and Satur days. We cannot account for this suddon ?chango, and especially at a season of tho yoar whoo both the freights and travel are active We have understood tho freights on this line have boon bettor thia fall than common, and tho chango will at onco cut thom off, and inoronso tho freights over the Air Lino Road Colton which would have boon brought to Walhalla will bo curried to points cn the Air Ijine, and ranoh that ie bought hore will bo hauled to that road. It will thus injure tho income of the trunk road to Columbia and Charleston, and divert trado from Charleston. This, it seems to us, will bo tho effect of tho ?bango, while tho saving in oxponso to tho road Will bo trifling. We supposo tho au tori tics know host, but wo oun't seo it in thoir County Expenses, Wo publish in this issue tho annual report .oT the County Commissioners, whioh should evory year be oloBoly sorutinuod and pro? ?orved, with tho view of curtailing, if posible, .county oxpensOB. Thoso publient ions aro required by law to bo made that tho people may know what goos with tho taxes paid for >County exponaos. Tho present Board, so far .ae wo know, has boen ooonomioal, and certainly thoir own pay is not largo, as $579.75 is tho aggrogato sum rocoivod by the thron mombors of tho Board and their olork, for mileage and per diem for twelve months. 'While lids is true, tho gross expenditures for county purposes is fearfully largo, aggregat ing 6,123.29. For ton yours prior to 1859, ibo entire taxes Ioviod in Piokons District i % ranged botwoen $0,000 and $8,000, whilo Mow Ooonoe alone pays ovor $0,000 for oounty expenses. It cannot bo the fault of tho Commissioners, ns tho oxpondituros for roads and bridges and other purposos in the dior ' - crotion of tho Commissioners aro not oxoos? nive. It must bo due largoly to tho reform needed in tho government- by snob legislation antill economise expenditures in ovory de partment. It will bo soon that oourts of Trial Justices obst tho county nearly $1,000, whilo ,,in nil criminal aotions thoir jurUdiotion is |o restricted tn imposing punishmont that it jude rather to jnore&ee than diminish orimo. 'io law should bo so changed that a person $$'Pt\ ???(^cooy should ? flogger: Or ?ont to Hie bofcite?tiarytWhls'wou?? deorcuso petty thefts and thu? diminish court exponeos, both in tho way of ofiloors, costa aud jai! feos. Any ono who will look nt tho gr??* sum of county oxpepsos must coooludo that great reform is ncedod in this department. Our taxablo property ia about $1,700,000, on which sum a levy of throe mills will raiso $5,100, BO that instead of reducing, we will have to increase our county taxes, unless our expenses uro curtailed. VUe Lecture of BIOD. Walter M. Gibbon, On Thursday Dight, of Inst weok, tho poople of Walhalla cnjoyed a plensuro whioh they seldom hnvo enjoyed. It had been proviously announced through the KBOWBB COUBIBB that on that night tho Hon. Walter M. Gibson, of tho Sandwich Islands, would looturo in tho Baptist Church. To moot this appointment, and to hoar tho distinguished speaker, quito a largo numbor of our poe plo gathered at tho church. Mr Gibson's reputa tion , made our citizens vory ourious to soo and hoar him, and thoy woro moro than ropaid fer tho attontion given him. When tho 'church was noarly filled, Hon. J. S. Vainer introduced tho upoakor to his audi ence. Mr Vernor,' in his introductory remarks, said that South Carolina had con. tributed moro distinguished and remarkable mon to tho development of tho now Stntos of tho Union and to tho now oountrios Wost? ward of hor bordore than perhaps any Stato of tho Union. Her sons had penetrated tho wilds of our Western torritory and had thero mudo now homes, now settlements and now States. They had not stopped withiu thc boundaries of tho torritory of tho United States with tho coasts of tho Pacific, hut had gone far beyond, into tho isles of tho Pacific Ocoao, nnd f.bejio in thoso wild Islands, amid hostilo tribes and unknown tongues, had converted barbarism into tho highest type of civilized lifo. One of thoso sons wo have with UR hero to-night, whoso reputation ia known, not only in Moxioo and tho United States of America, but also iu Europo und in thc East Indies. His adventurous and remarkable career mark him as ono of tho most distinguished mon that have ever gone from South Carolina, and now after tho expo, rienco of such a career and tho good fortuno which always attcad onorgy, persevorenco und brains, he had como again to old South fJarolir.a crownod with tho honors of his idopted home in tho Sandwich Islands, to moot his old friends and furn now acquain tances. As South Carolinians wo delight l,o honor such mon, and when thoy return EVO onn give thom a hearty wolcotno, and toro to night we have tho pleasure of aeoing ind hearing tho Hon. Wultor M. Gibson a nombcr of tho parliament of tho Hawaiian jlovcrnniont, Sandwich Islands, of whom wo iro proud, and as suoh we now take tko dcasuro of introducing to you, this honored' ion of Carolina. v-J Mr. Gibsonv/rcferring to tho remark* of SIr Vernor; said that tho crodit of having pro lueed so many men ol mark and national ?ote must bo mainly confined to tho up jountry of tho State, to a region comprised ivithin a radius of twonty milos from old Pendleton. This fine old mountain region jould claim a host of loaders of mon, such as Calhoun, Pinkncy, Orr, Chovos, Poinsolt, iVarron Davis, Waddy Thompson, Husk, md several scores of ?uah men; but ho did rot claim to bolong to this roll of honor, of ?oblo names devoted to a country's wolfaro. LIo belonged to tho olass of advouturors who nado tho wido world their homo. What an adventure whon ho sot out from Sandy Springs, near old Pendleton, alono ivith his throe children to traverso thc conti lont; and how remarkable his oxporionco in ;ho Indian oonntry, boforo tho iron rail had lound tho East and tho West with an afHuont sand of civilization. At that time ho toiled torosa tho continent in fivo months, and recently ho had run with comfort from sceau to ocean in two wcoks. Ho dwelt upon ono inoidont of his oarly trans-conti nental adventures. Ho was in tho Sioux country, noar tho Sweet Water, and was ot tho head of bia train of so von wagons. Ho had como to a hall for tho noon-day meal, Mid nt tho samo timo tho other six wagons had halted about a mile back ou tho road, and out of sight, to assist in some repairs. He dispatched his son and an assis tant to hurry up tho laggards, 08 there was roason to fear tho proscuoo of Indians. Ho remained alono engaged in making a fire, whilst his daughter was inside tho covered wagon. Ho suddenly hoard tho tramp of horses, and looking un to his di?mny, beheld \ troop of about 24 Ogallalla Indians in full war paint. Thoy dismounted from their ?ionios, and approaching him formed two files, ind every man appeared to have a ramrod or itiok in his hand. A loador, ottering some words in brokon Spanish and Indian, ordored mr traveler to strip, ovidontly that ho should run tho gauntlet botwoon tho filos of grinning savages, and bo cudgelled with blows ns long &s ho oould stand up. Ho loanod against his wagon in torror, hoart sick at tho thought of his daughter, fooling, ns sho was silent, that she levi inintod from torror, and would bo tho victim of thoso inonstors. As ho stood gazing in speechley agony nt tho prospect boforo him, tho leader of tho band approached, seized Mr. Gibson by his shirt, and as th' Indian attempted to drag him forward, tho now aroused father struck the savage in tho breast, making him reel back among his comrades, and as our advontaror rocoverod his position against tho wagon, he folt his back touched; bo put his hand behind him, jjraspod a rovolvor, and simultaneously the wagon cover was raised nud a rifle bar rel was protruded, and aimed at tho foremost Indian hy his resoluto dnughtor Talula. She, instead of fainting, had boon silontly loading up and putting weapons in ordor. And now tho faoo of affairs wore ohungod. Tho Indians wavored and baokod boforo this unoxpootod battery in their front. A parley ensued, and boing odored a present of tobacco, ooi?eo and sugar, ono of their numbor received tho ransom, and tho dangerous and frightful band galloped out of sight. Our travolor stn tod that ho had not planned to sottlo in tho Sandwich Islands. His stny li oro was owing to accidental circumstances. ?le had hoped to return to tho East Indio lalauds, especially to Sumatra, whore ho bad lyu'pdtttVgn of a sottlornont from tho Sultan of Jumboo, and hod boen proVontod from our rylng out his purposo by tho arbitrary and tyrannical intorforonoo of tho DiUoh Go Vorn?, mont. And ao helamouted the cirou matancos that hold ltira back in tho Sandwich Islands. Ile thon felt disposed to complain of tho hard dealings of Providonoo that scorned to ship wreck all his groat hopes. But now as he lookod baok on his ponoo and prospority and oxcollcnt opportunities in tho Paolflo Islands, bc felt that Providonoo bad dealt far moro wisely and kindly with him than he would have dono with himself, could bo have forced bis way East to sickly olimos and among a piratical people. Tho Sandwich Islands offered a romarkablo illustration of a wondorful civilization brought about by Christian influences. Ho bid his ? hearers romembor that about sixty yours ago, the kanakas, or nativos, of tho Sandwich Islands woro tho sorfs of ohiofs and priests, and govorned by frightful and abominable superstitions, and now tho sons and grand sons of those savages livod undor n constitu tional ordor of govornmont, had numerous well supported churches, had an elective Parliament, oxcollout sohools, an ablo judici ary nud plonty of newspapers. Tho Ieoturor said that it would bo a raro thing to And a nntivo of thc islands, tho head of a family, who did not subsoribo for a news pnpor, and rend it, too, And ns ho had boon an editor in tho Islands, ho could say that the nativo nowspapors, published in tho Hawaii an or Kanaka languago, contained a very full summary of foreign nows, so that kanuka* woro gonorally well informed nbout forolgn affairs, especially ahmt nil questions agi ta ? ting tho United State?. Tho political loan? lng of tho nativos was decidedly American, and no doubt should independence in tho Pacific bo impossible, of which nt prosont thoro Was happily no evidence, the kanakas of tho Sandwich Islands would profor tj idon tify their political futuro with tho groat Re public. The lecturer spoko highly of King Kala? kauo, who recently visited tho United States. Ho was a gentleman of superior cultivation, and gavo a cordial wclcomo to Americans visiting his dominions, and ho doubted not that should any South Carolinian visit his capital of Honolulu that it would bo no small recommendation to claim to be a compatriot of Governor Wade Hampton. Owing to tho fact of a royal court being hold in Honolulu, and that European powers sent obie envoys to represent their government at this court, and also owing to tho fact that maritime powers in tho Pacific mudo tho port of Honolulu their chief rendezvous, tho capi tol of tho Sandwich Island*1 surpassed in many respects in stylo and display suoh capi tals as Columbia or Richmond. Ho hoped soon.to 'seo tim telegraphic cable laid from Co Pacific cease to tho islands, and thoa wo ?would bo near noighb>rs, and wo would bo flashing congratulations or condo lences between Honolulu and Walhalla. It was curious to speak of a sympathy between places so divorsod, as those tropic islands and this interior mi?ntain country; but Provi dence having cast his lot thoro, and as ha still proser ved the tondorcst memories towards this old homo, whore ho bad passed his carly courting days, ho hoped to draw closer tho bond of svmpathy between South Carolina and thc Sandwich Islands, fl : did not want to tom pt any son of tho old Stato away from his nativo soil; but should any sock a chongo ho would be happy to aid him in tito islands, whioh offered a liberal row ard to tho endeav ors of tho industrious and the trustworthy.
