* A RO .AND FOR AN J.VER-' Sdastor Vest Proves Moe than a Match for :'' Soh bbernan- , e'Truth of History. I the cou of the Senate's considera 'tiod Of the b for the admission of South )akota aa! tate, and the organization of the Ter ory.of North Dakota, Senator Shsriij said that in the absence of Sena. tor mund5, who was engaged in the 8 reme Court, he would ask thu attention o the 8 nete. /tt had, always struck him, he said, that a. the opposition to the admission of )akota as '1 St:ate was totally unjustifiable and (latterly) factious-s. much 80 as to he subject to the severe criticism of every body who liked to see fair play on great ques tions atlecting lage masses of people. Why, he asked, should Dakota be exclu(ed as a State? He had listened to most of the debate and had not heard a single reason given for such exclusion. Never before had a Territory applied for admission as a State with anything like such population or such resources. Why should not Dakota be admitted? In the name of heaven why? Simply because the Democratic party did not want that State to be admitted. In the course of his speech Senator Sherman asliowed by the vote In the Senate that the electoral commission bill was not a Itepub I lican, but a Democrati measure. Twenty six Democrats had voted for it and only twenty-one Repullticans, while the votes against it were fourteen Republicans (in ciuding himself) and one Democrat Senator Eaton, of Connecticut.) 'The Democrats were, therefore, precluded from assailing the bill as a ,..rtisan measure, lie declared his full conviction that Hlayes had been fairly and legally elected, and that if, by some hocus pocus, ''iicn had been inaug urated he would have been illegally elected. lie explait- e incongruity of Packard not getting - lovernorship of Louisiana by showing that that was subject to local laws and decisions; and he declared his conviction that Packard had been illegally deprived of his oilce. In the further course of a long speech, in which Senator Sherman incidentally touched upon current Louisiana polities, he said: Hereafter when any man asserted of President Hayes that he dad been elected '.. by fraud or wrong, or had not been (ld elected, he (Sherman) would hold him in contempt as uttering that which was not true and which was denied by the very men who overthrew the local governmitent in Louisiana im 1876. Senator Vest replied: lie said that the j1hreiit yhich Senator - Slel inan has fuipffitted as to holding in t m enwho questioned itlyiss election might have tet ror for members of his own party, but even with the terror of that threat before his eyes he (Vest) still denied the honesty and legality of that election. The question which he had asked yesterday about Packard and Ilayes hail been asked in a desult+ry and unlremi toted way, and the Senator froni Ohio had not answered it satisfactorily Senator Vest sent to the clerk's desk au(d had read extracts froi a sicecl n.ade on that subjtet in the Senate by Mi. laine, in which he declared tnat the elect itin of Hayes and Packard were inuii-oluhly con nected, and asked who had ;;utholrity ti make aty arrankemenict by which Packard was not upheld, staling that it Was impl,o. sible for the Admninistiation of Ilayes tio have (lone it. That, Senator Vest said, was the state ment of the most di-tinguished Rli(-ethii an now living now living, witi due c+-tcieact possibly to the Senator fm(n Ohio.

Mr. 13Iaii lial tlien asserted t!iat if Packard was not elected Governor 01 Louiana HalyeCs W walint entitled to the electorri vote of the SIate. Senator Vest then passedl on to the ques tion of the r.,ouisliana i~lreturing boat:rt, andil stated thait every rnembe ir atnd (flierl ot that hoard, and their rebitio)ns, hadh been provided with lucrative niliccs, exepjt till one colot ed membher (Cass:iniave), who had not been so) provided , tad who ia li onl(a.11 to Washington and1( appealed to IIlayes and Sherman (then Secrettary of the Treasury3 for pecuniary aidi, whitci had beetn giveni Ir offered to hini to the amnit of o,ver $ 1,000.

Fur.Wound.4 by a Midnight Shot. (Orangeburg Times and Demoorat.) On last Sunday morning about one o'clock there was enacted at the planta tion of Mrs. N. E. W. 1istrunk, in Eliza beth Township, one of thse scenes of bloodshed and murder, which, of late vears, have became alarningly frequent in this country. It appears that negro frolics have been uite frequent in this section of the country since last Christ mas. At these frolics whiskey has been as a rule, freely dispensed, and served to unbridle the worst passions of an illiter ate and not over moral people. That bloodshed, would on ue, Was predicate by the beet citizens, and this prediction was fully verified on last Sunday morn ing. In this instance it is the expected that has happenedi Last Saturdey night a large crowd assembled at the house of William Mack, who lives on Mrs. Sistrunk's place, now rented by Mr.L. B. Kelly, and save them selves up to the (lance and "high orgies held." All wont "merry as marriage bells, "until some timo after twelve o'clock when Mr. B. Lee Jeficoat appeared on the grounds, accompanied by Mr. Will II. Amaker, and proceeded to divido the contents of a demijohn of whiskey, which it is asserted, ho had sent to Orangeburg for, to supply some hands who had been making up rafts for him during the proceeding. They had separated them selves a short distance from the mass of revtlers, and each man had just recieved his part of the whiskey in flasks provided for the occasion, and were indulging in a social drink, when they were fired into by some unknown party, who, under the cover of darkness, mado good his escape. small pine straw fire had been light ed to enable the parties to see how to effect a division of the whiskey, and around this fire sat B. Lee Jef!Toat, Will H. Amaker, Will Nack, Wyatt Parker, Joe Stroman and Dennis Stro man, a 1 negroes cxcept the two first named. 3o effective was the aim of the aksassin, that of the six men present only Mr. Will Amaker escaped uninjured. Wyatt Parker was instantly killed by a buckshot, which penetrated his skull. B. Leo Jeffeoat received three buckshot in the upper part of his ripht arta, and another, which enterel just at the root of the nose, inflicting a serious if not a fatal wound. Wid Mack was shot through the left forearm, and had the flask, which he hold in his left hand and was just raising to his lips, shattered into a hundred or more fragments. Joe Stro man and Dennis Stroman escaped with slight flesh wounds. The scene of the killing was just in front of the reidence ocoupied by Mr. Kelly and Mr. Stuekey. These gentle men upon hearing the report of the gun and the Cries of the woun(led meu came out to where the liro was burning. All had fled save Wyatt Parker, who had tl en fi ward into the fire, and whose body was toad. The fire was extin ishni bed and the buy of the dead man left just where it had fallen. E.arly tuititty mt..rning Coroner Win. Liviug,ton was nottied and proceeded to the place of the killing and orianized a jury of inquest. 'The testimony so far takin develops no clue to the perpetra tir of the bloody lied. With the hope that some furlher t-:A.iuony might bo forthcoming dining the week, Coroner Livingston adjurned the jury of in qtuest to meet again next Friday at the court..house. A H UM AN MAGNICT.

O; OUR NEGLECTED DEAD. donething Ought to be Done to Keep Their li Grave. Green. Something ought to be done to perpetuate f the names of the Confederate soldiers who Pt fell fighting for their country and who now lie buried in far-away graves. A corres- I pondent of the News and Courier says: nt "The Stonewall Cemetery, at Winches ter, Va., contains the remains of 800 Un- in named dead, comnmemorated by the beauti- C ful central nonutent. "Each State of the Southern Confed eracy has appropriated its own special ?i ground. In that of South Carolina lie at least 200 Carolina dead whose names are marked upon simple wooden headboards. h These boards, I amt directly informed, are i( fast decaying, many have fallen, and a S few more months of wind and rain will obliterate them entirely. South Carolina B is the only State, I learn, which has be- y( stowed no care whatever on this sacred a spot. Georgia has put a montument, an(1 all her graves are marked with simple . stones. Maaryland and other States have cerei for theirs, and we alone neglect ours. c "It seemed to me last night that I could hear the wail of our unrememlbered dead. It should not be so. I know that it is a II matter of surprise to the warm-hearted 1' Winchestr people, men and women, and H 1 know that they will do all in their power to aid us in any eflort. we may make to re- p deem our lost. reputation for love and mcnm ory for and of our heroes.
