f - . ^ The Little Seek Brought Oat. Colombia, Mey 25.?The secret of the mysterious little book has just leaked out. notwithstanding tho vigilant end scrutinou* care of the committee. I don't know who it is, but somebody has seen it, else how can I say that it is a private memorandum book kept by Dr. Jnckson, formerly book-keeper of the Republican Printing Company, and that it contains memoranda said to be memoranda of moneys paid out by the ReA^mublican Printing Company to Senators, KeprcjJFQt senlatives and others. The man who saw it says Bthat among other names in the mysterious little book nro the following : Ex-Treasurer Cardoso, $17,600; ex-Governor Moses, $18,000; Senators Nosh, Swails and WhiUomore $5/000 each, and about on* handled Senators and'' members V t<n ii?u?? ?t smaller sums. I forgot to say thalthe same man says Tim Hurley is bjbked for ?7.000 or *U nn<? I.. ?.. ? UI-u r_ .l v?|vwv| uw ivi^vio nuivui JLU IIIO I meantime the book is ssfelj locked up in the pos- | nession of the chairman of the investigating com- j roittee, and will not be examined until the e?m* t mittee meets to-morrow, at 10 o'clock. j From the proceedings of the Senate of the i 25th we extract the following.* 1 Senator Bowen; in behalf of the iuvosligting . committee, submitted a report setting forth that . thejr had been told that J. M. McKay had the 1 book that he had admitted the fact, and had . "been served with a subpoena duces tecum ; thii , McKay had gone off with the ostensible purpose of procuring the book and had theu stated that ( the did not have it. The committee, therefore, . asked that the Senate take such action as would protect the dignity and authority of the body. Senator Witherspoon offered a resolution instructing the sergeans-at-arms to arrest McKay c for contempt and bring hinr before the bar of a the Senate. This was at once adopted, and in c less than t wenty minutes the recalcitrant witness ? stood at the bar of the Senate in the custody of ? ?? the Sergcant-at-Arms. He was accompanied by j Mr. Ed. J. Maxwell, who appeared in the char- 0 acter of counsel. r Senator Bowen said that after Mr. McKay had gone to Abbeville, to get the book, he said he had t - given it to Mr. Maxwell, the man who now rep- ( resents him as counsel. a Senator Gary moved that Mr. MoKay be placed v in the same cell with his friend Peter Papin, and ( be kept there until he disgorged. [Sensation, ?| and dismay on the part of McKay,] t! Sammy Green expressed his doubt whether 0 the Senate eould fore j a man to produce portable * property, which belonged to another man. The * facts are, "he snid>" "that the book is down n town now, undergoing some changes." Senator h Gary renewed his motion to incarcerate McKay. * (Renewed signs of demoralisation on McKay's e part.} "It must be evident," he said, that this d man is trifling with the patience and dignity of e the Senate. If the book contained the revels- n ^ tion of a fraud, the parties who are attempting *u concent it are participants in these frauds. Mr. Maxwell, Mr. McKay's counsel, asked to be heard. L Senator Gary : "I object. He is as guilty as w his client." b Mr. Maxwell being allowed to apeak, said he L had the book, and was as much interested in e pressing the investigation as any Senator on this floor. He was ready now, and always was ready, a te produce the book. He only wanted time to n exonerate his client. b Senator Cochran: "We'll, exonerate him ? new, if he produces the book." *- p 'dgr. Then Swails took a hand, and a long wrangle 6 ensued, which was finally settled by the adoption of Senator Crittentenden's resolution that further g time be granted,provided the book was firstdeliv- t< ered into the hands of the chairman of the com- w jnttee. This being adopted, Mr. Maxwell retired, ii Mr. McKay was bundled off to a side seat, in the tl custody of the Sergeant-at-Arms. ti In less than half an hour Mr. Maxwell re- a turned. Then there was a hurried whisper, and 01 .Senator Cochran announced that the long looked a; lor book had been delivered into the hands of .the chairman of the committee. Mr. McKay was then released from custody " until to-morrow, and took his departure, smiling '' -grimly at Senator Gary.?Journal of Commerce. " The United 8tales Jury Commissioner has I* drawn the following named persons from this A county to serve as jurors upon the trial of the 01 Kllenton cases : W. V. Davis, Mitchell Goggins, ci James McCravey, L. L. Guffin, Elioa Tolbert, t< J. A. Spencer, C. B. Reynold, J. R. McKellar, S Nelson Brooks, Iverson Reynolds and Alfred A Butler. There is not a respectable, decent, D straightforward, honest man on the list, white I< or black. A meaner, more desperate, depraved b set of unprincipled political partisans, ignorant, 1< scheming, vulgar rowdies, oould net have been h found from MAine to Mexioo. Davis was once indicted for forgery ; McCravey is now under bond of $400 to appear at the Court of Sessions " for this county for malicious trespass; Guffin 0 has been the leader of the Radical party in this * county for years, and has always exercised him- ? self to keep the races apart, sad so en down the list to the very last man. They are all lacking D in intelligence, are verv bitter in their noliiiral 0 partisanship, hold no inters! in common with ? the people, and are conspicuous in their antag- " onism to the white race. These are the men se- * lected to try the Ellenton cases, and we may con- *! .elude at once what their verdict will be.?.46- E JbevitU Medium. c The Sunday School World for May appears in -a neat oovgt, into which 4s peeked the usual ^ number and variety of valuable articles found * in this exoellent Sunday school monthly. Rev. * Chan. 8. Robinson, D. 1)., treats of "Lesson ? Helps;" Rev. George E. Poet, Syria, of "The Fig Tree;" Rev. Win, Ormiston, D. D., sketches 11 the character of "Klisha Mrs. W. F. Crafts * .explains "The Kindergarten," as applied to Sun day schools; Rev. Mosety H. Williams shows |f"How not to keep scholars Rev. Edwin W. J; Rice writes of "The Prophetio Books." Added 1 to these are Dr. John Hall's Lessons, Mrs. * Knox's "Primary Talks;" Lessons Applied; a 0 Bible Concert Exercise, and the usual Editorials, B .making an interesting, varied and valuable amount of reading for the Sunday school woik er which he would find it difficult to procure JJ . elsewhere at three times the oost ol The World. 1 n a ThbChaelesto* Dslkoition.?Mr. Orr, from the CommitUe on Ways and Means and the Ju> dietary Committee, reported on the Charleston case, ai d recommended that Maokey, Brodie el * al. be not seated, because there existed in that * county so much violence, intimidation sad fear i that no fair ellction was held. ? Mr. Millets from the same oommifA^mhaeit- b <ted a Minority report, recommenafHnfiQT (he delegation be seated on purging of a .the contempt. Both reports were made the special order for ( Tuesday, at 12 o'clock. g As the latest reports we receive from the Legislature previous te putting our paper to press are only te MenJay, we cannot toll what was ^^.done in the matter by that body.

Thotlgh painfully wounded, Mr. I Hoffman's oondltioA is not serious." , * Avhioan Am mm as.?A party ef gentlemen went up the Cooper River last week and stopped .at a place ooeupied and planted by negroes.? After they had picked as many berries as they t wanted, they made preparations to depart, when t they were invited by several colored women to ( partake of a fine dinner whioh had been pre- 1 pared for them. They regretted that the geonot brought ladies with them, and t ^^HHkMMhsndioiBe bouquet of flowers to t ^^^^^ ^^ ^^^ttnrday thesamo party revis- t Bffk- Among (ho Western Excursionists who passed through this State a fow days ago were iwo brothers, by the naiuo of M< ans, relatives >f the Means and Fosters of this and Spartan)urg Counties. They stopped at Union on their say to Spartanburg, and onr friend, Capt. A. II. foster, made their acquaintance and claimed -elationship to them. He also went to Spartan>urg with them, where they met the venerable nother of Captain Foster and many other relaives who they had never seen before. The Sditor of the Spartanburg Herald thus speaks >f these gentlemen: . "TKcae brothers, now advanced in years, one iccorapanied by a sou, paid Spartanburg a visit ast week and went out to the old homestead of heir father, where Col. Jno. M. Crook now ives, and seemed to take a great interest in visting the scenes of their boyhood days. They ire relatives of ths Means and Fosters of this )lace, who moved to Ohisin 1817 or 1818carryng their slaves with them, whom they set free ifler reaching Ohio. One of them came back in a visit to this State some forty-five years ago, >ut found few friends living with whom he met hen Dr. C. 1*. Woodruff, an old acquaintance vho visited their father in 1830, called to see hem while here, and they met Gen. James /rook, an old school mate. With these two exeptions all with whom they met were new faces. )ne of them lives in Ohio and the other in Kenucky. Both are engaged in ths iron business, n which they have amassed immense fortunes. Srnator Butler's Conduct at tub Capturr ir Chambrrsbubo.?The Philadelphia Timet ays : "Mr. G. R. Messersmith, who wasabank asliier at Chambersburg at the time Gen. Jeb. Ituart raided that place, has written a letter to lenator M. C. Butler, of South Carolina, who vas one of the raiding party, which letter is full f the spirit of good will which the President's lolicy has inspired. Mr. Messersmith says that ong ago he decided that as soon as all irritating races cf the war were obliterated he would write en. Butier and thank him for his kind and ;cntle treatment of his family, at the trying time rhen Chambersburg was in the hands of the Confederates. 'Now,' says Mr. Messersmith, that President Hayes has released the last of he States from military rule, I deem it a fitting ccaslon to do so, and to assure you of my plcasnt recollection and good wishes, and to say to ou now, what I could not say 'when last we let,' that I would be g'ad to sec you at my ome, where a warm and cordial greeting will I ways await you.' This is a good kind of reconiliation, and Mr. Messersmith's letter will oubtless give Senator Butler a somewhat differnt character than he has had in the eyes of tost Northern people." > Morton Mollified.?Indianapolis. Mav 25. -Senator Morton has written a letter defining is position on the questions of the day. lie rarmly indorses the policy of the administration, ni insists that the Republican^ governments of qpisianaand South Carolinahave been overturnd by an armed minority. He admits that in any vent Republicans would have lost these States, s a majority of the negroes did not carry the loral force that the white minority did. He elieves that the administration of President [ayes will stand by the principles of the Keublican party, and for one, he will not be found ghting among his opponents. The extremists among the Republicans are really excited and demoralized to day by Mor?n's letter on the Southern question. They 'ere counting on him to oppose the President i Congress. The effect of the letter is to make tern believe that Kellogg has no chance of getng his seat. Democrats characterize the letter an act of coerced loyalty to the President, in r<ler to retain his hold on the public patronage, nd thus promote his re-election. .?. Cattle Thieves Caught.?It affords us pleasre to announce that Capt. Alley has succeeded i capturing that notorious scoundrel, Jno. rown together with another thief, (Sam Pilrim by name).

Take More than One Chance.?No good irmer in these days risks his all on the chanco f one crop. If you notice, all the staple crops re now ruling low; tobacco, cotton, oorn, peauts?all are down. The only staples that are olding up are wheat and hay. Thestaples are ot likely to advance much, for large quantities f the old crops are still on hand. If the farmr will first take care to raise his meat and bread, is fruit and vegetables, his manures and stock t home, he will be safe, and limn ??) ? make a specialty of some one staple as a crop, tut never let your interest in the market crops suae you for a moment to neglect homesupplles. The Ci ecu it Judges to Rotate.?The LegisUure has passed the following kill to carry into ffeot the l4tb sectieBwf*)lrticle 4, of ike Contit ution ; "Within sixty days after the passage ( the act, the Chief Justiee shall assign each f the Circuit Judges to hold the fell terms of he Court of one of the circuits for the year 877. The Judgd to ' whom the Flrgt Circuit i assigned, shall eontinue to be assigned a regular order to the other Circuits, so that hey shall regularly rotate in holding their lourts in all Circuits. Ciroult Judges are not llowed to absent themselves from the State withutthe permission of the Chief Justice, and then ever for more than sixty days in one year." ? ? Was re tils Knife.?Some ten days ago a dificulty occurred on our streets between Mr. Alf. '.gPeete and Wm. Magill Fleming, the belliger nta being separated by the town marshal. It eems, however, that Fleming was not satisfied, e he attacked Mr. Peete, on Saturday last, with knife, inflicting a severe, but not dangerous, round in the right breast. A warrant for "Asault with intent to kill" was taken out against 'leming who waa lodged injuil, where he retained until Sunday, at which time he was ailed out, in the sum of three hundred dollars. -Spartan.
