THE ORANGEB?RQ NEWsT SATURDAY-, JUNE 37, 1808. _.- " ?-1?-:?'? While-tee reserve to ourselves theright of defi ning our dum political position, by means of our editorial columns, we will be pleased to publish contributions from our fcllow-c?izcns upon the grave questions which now agitate the public mind, whether their opinions coincide with ours or not. A district newspaper, we consider, shoxdd be an index of the various shades of pop. ular sentiment in the section of country in whtch it circulates. Our columns, are. open, therefore, for nny communications property written, accom panied by a responsible name, not personal in their character, nor absolutely injurious in their tendency. r ' Tho -enluibll8,, that Carries South v Carolina into, the Union.

Tho votes of the doludcd negroes of South Carolina arc wanted, to counterbalance and control tho wishes of he intelligent and conservative cilizons of tho nion, North and South; and honcc, wo aro '-'admitted to representation." No wonder that the skies wore veiled iu gloom, nnd that tho heavens wopt, ou that eventful day of evil onion. Tho Goddess of Liboity herself, perch ed upon tho dome of tho Federal Capital, might well bewail tho desecration of her tem ple,' and the porversion of her fair name. It is but a mockery to eall the now member of tho Federal Republic,?South Carolina.? That proud, chivalrous State is no more; and in its stead the mongrol nationality that has assumed its name, is bnt a base imposture, a lying caricature, whoso motley delegates to Washington aro compeers only of such men as tho "Beast" and the "Hangman." The parti colored erew, who framed the New Constitu tion, to have been consistent, should have giv en the soil a now namo, in opening a new chap-1 tor of history., We would admire tho consis tency to be found in tho name of "G uinoana," "Congoana," or "Gorillana"and a coat of] Arms representing the Club Houso Patriarch with shepherd's crook, attending his variegated flock; and as a logend, the suggestive motto, "Bah! bah! blaok sheep, have you any wool ?" But the "most unkindest out of all" is tho desecration of an ancient namo to such ignoble ends. Such, howevor, aro the issues !of unsuccessful war. Book Notices, Ac.

Upon dissection no food was found i stomach. This indigestion resulted into a (spasmodic) about 2 o'clock P. M., Saturdayx noon, June 10th, 1868. The efforts made proVuood a great deal of cerebral excitement and const] depression, to whioh, in my judgment, rriaj produced a relaxation of somo pulmonary, vessels of tho apox of tho lungs, and termini) a Blow herhorrhagic dischargo or emptying oS^'dd vessels, this accounting for tho continual attending dyspnaau, whioh became moro evident, to war end of the man's life, whioh event took pli minutes past 8 P.

RADZINSKY, M Attending Physic!" and Surgeon. this 22d day of June, 1808. C. B. GLOVER, . (sxuiniT "u.") We certify that we havo examined the b*dy of Jacob Hanton, deceased, and lind that while* tt is our opinion that tho shot wound was the remote causo of bis (Jacob Hantou's) death, yet from tho history of tho cuhc, and from pott mortem appear ance, we are compelled to believe that it was not the, immediato cause; in other words we believe that had no untoward accident happened, tho man, (Jacob Hanton,) stood a fuir vhunco to recover After opening tho body we can find nothing which was produced alone by the ball, to assure us that tho wound would prove necessarily fatal?on the other hand, wo find traces of what we confidently believe was recent intlamation, satisfactorily ex plained by the history of cusc during the lust hour* of his life. A. S. SALLEY, M. D. E. J. OLIVEHOS, M. D. Personally appeared before mo A. S. Salley, M. I), and E. J. Oliveros, M. D., who swear that tho foregoing' is a true and correct statement of a nn*t mortem examination of Jacob Han'.on deceased. Sworn to before me this 1 22 day of June, 1868. C. B. ? LOY Ell, Magistrate. A. 8. SALLEY, M. O. E. J. OLIVEUOS, M. D. Dr. E. J. Oliveros being produced and sworn, says: Thinks intlamation of the stomaoh and coverings as exhibited on the pott mortem was of recent date. It is not likely that intlamation would havo occurred had not somo untoward circumstances happened. Think chances of rcoovory were favor able if it had not boon for said untoward cir cumstance. Dr. A. 8. Salley being produced aud sworn, says: Saw deoeased on Friday 19th Juno. When I entered tho room Hanton was sitting up in bed looking ohoerful aud hopeful. Cautioned him not to exert him self too much, as soon as ho felt fa tigued to lio down and rest himself, he re plied, he was fully able to sit up and was rest ing himself. I frequently saw him beforo this. On this day (Friday) ho expressed a desire to eat. I did not sec Hanton as his attending physician. On Saturday morning I met Dr. Rausziusky who told mo he would bo absent from the village for a short time aud bogged mo if ho was uot back by 3 o'clock to see these wouuded men for him. About half past threo o'olock, in company with Dr. Shulcr, I visited them and found Hanton suffering intensely with spasmodic cholio. I usked him what ho had been eating, ho replied he had eaten somo hard boiled Irish potatoes, I said "Hanton did you not know suoh a diet would injure," ho replied, "That I was vory hungry and nothing had beou providod for us to eat, some ono brought in these potatoes aud I cut them."? I prescribed for him the usual remedies which relieved him of his acute suffering. I saw Hanton again at half past six o'olock, found him still relieved of his acute pain but with a burning fever nnd gcnoral .wroncss over tho abdomen. I prescribed a dose of Castor oil for him at that timo. I saw him no mere un til Sunday morning tho 21st inst., at half past seven A. M., when I found him eold and al most pulseless, saw him agaiu at 10.30 A. M. much in tho samo condition. As Dr. Radzins ky had returned, I saw him no more. Don't think tho wound he received would account for tho condition I found him in, on my visit at half past three o'clock Saturday afternoon. 1 should think that iron) tho pott mortem the wound was not sufficient to cause death without sumo uutoword circumstance afterward. Q. What was tho immediate cause of' his duatli 7 . A. Intense pulmonary congestion caused by high arterial excitement in a Constitution al ready enfeebled. Q. Do you think hard boiled Irish potatoes likely to produce euch an effoct? A. An Indigestible meal of any substance would produce high arterial excitement in a case like his. ? / ; < ) <T i i /a ? t ? Q. Do you think hard boiled Irish potatoes an indigestible meal: A. I do, when taken In quantity. Han ton stated to mo he had eaten eaten hoartily of Irish potatoes. Han ton told me on Saturday, 11 he never saw such an attendance aa he had had , nobody to wait on him or attend him/' The nurse employed by Dr. Radelnsky had left ami could not be found. I never saw him (tho nurse) until next day. Q. From what came under yoor observation do you think Hanton had proper attention shown him 7 A. I have no idoa he had. Q. When you saw him Friday morning did you not think ho would recover? A. I had no doubt of it at all. Q. If Hanton had bad proper attention do you not think ho would have recovered 7 A, I think he would. All I thought he needed wus proper nursing and good nutritious diet. Q. Could the wound he received have pro duced Congestion of tho Stomach 7 A. Impossible. Q. From a wound that would cause internal hemorrhage would you expect hot fevers such as Hanton had ? A. No, on the ether hand I would expect a state ot collapse. Q. From an internal hemorrhage would the blood clod t A. If examined some time after death, would expect more or less coagula. Q. Did you remove any clotted blood at the j post mortem examination 7 A. I saw, possibly, five or six small clots not largor than tho end of your finger. Q. Was your attention called to any artery 1 boing out by the ball 7 A. No. I saw no artery divided. Q To produce death from. hemorrhago would it be necessary for an artery to bo .cut. A. Tho division of an artery or largo vein internally would be necessary. Dr. Dr. L. D. Radziasky being sworn, said : I wus the attending physician to Jacob Han-1 ton, his condition was very favorable on Friday; don't know thai ho sat up?if so it was contra-1 ry to my instructions. I expressed myself, if.r-^n t r iinojjlmgfl^Wfiuld take placo^he I would recover, at that tinio I discovered some mucus being discharged from his wound, in I a very small quantity, Imvo known cases where I us large and larger quantities of mucus was I discharged from as dangerous wounds apparent- I ly and tho patient rocovered. Q. Are yuu satisfied that the immediate cause of death was from tho effects of tho wound ? A. I think it was, undoubtedly. Q. Iu what way did tho wouud cause his death ? A. Ry tho disohargo of the blood vessels implicated in tho laceration of tho Apox of tho right lung. Tho ball or projectile passing through tho Apex of tho right lung. j Q. If internal hemorrhage took place would tho blood necessarily become clotted 7 A. Yen, three hours time after death clots I will begin to be found. Q. How much clotted blood did you find on 1 your port mortem 7 A. About half a pound. Q. Do yon think that tho amount of clotted blood you found would cause death to ensuo ? I A. Yes. Q. Do you think the hemorrhage wae of re-1 cent dato 7 A. Yes. j Q. Do you think this nan would have lived if it had not beon for some extraneous circum- j stances 7 A Yes, ho would have lived with proper rare. j Q. Could the wound Hanton reeeived pro duce congestion of the stomach ? A. No, not directly. Q. What effect would be produced by in-1 tcrnal hemorrhage on the system 7 A. Central excitement, cold clammy perspi ration and strong n oil marked palpitation of the heart. Q. Where was the hemorrhage 7 A. In the upper portion of the Apex of the [ right lung. Q. What artery was cut to produce that hemorrhage? A. No artery specially out or lacerated. Q. What was his appetite up to Saturday morning 7 A. Good. Q. How was his respiration up to Saturday morning 7 A. Sixteen a minute, (Rut Sacoaded). Q. The morning you left the wounded in charge of Dr. 8aHey did you call his attention to the mucus discharges of Hanton 7 A. I called his attention to the fnct on Friday. Q. Who was tho nurse in chargo of Han-1 ton ? A. George Balttogar. Q. Have you heard any complaints against him. A. Visitors say that tho nurse did not give proper at tent ion. He absented himself with out my permission. Q. What do you think was tho cause that led to internal hemorrago? A. A* pistol ball?I am satisfied of it. Q. Wa? tho pistol ball tho remote or immer diate cause of hemorrhage 1 Wi A. Thoreiuotiacause. q. What Wob tho immediate cause to the best of yo?r kn?wledgo which led to (Internal hemorrhage ? ' " ^g?** A. I thiuk from the appearance ot the Stomach it was indigestion. Q. Aro you satisfied as to the shape of the ball from tho appearance of tho wound ? A. Yea. It was a small round ball or buck shot. Samuel Dibble being produced and sworn, says: Had daily conversations with Dr. Badainsky. concerning tho condition of Jacob Hanton up to Friday. ' Dr. Radzinsky*B re ports were gradually more favorable up to Friday afternoon when he said "ho considered J him out of danger," he said further that ho j (Hanton) expressed argreat desire to go home j ! and if the guard didn't mind' tie.would make . his escape. I suggested that ho might bo re moTod to tho. jail, he (Dr. Radtinsky) ro marked "that ho thought ho would bo ablo to be removed to the jail on Sunday or Monday at the furthest." I replied T thought about Monday would be time enough to settle it definitely, and X was bo impressed with tho favorable remarks of Dr. Radzinsky that I spoke to the Sergeant of tho guard cautioning him to keep on the lookout for Hanton as ho might mako an attempt to. mako his escape, (Witness apoko to tho Sergeant as Counsel for tho Sheriff.) The Pcndleton Platform. ? ' , Tho Cincinnati Enquirer i which is the lead'' ing Pcndleton organ in the west demands, at the hands of the National Democratic Conven tion, a platform which shall embody the fol lowing points;: 1. Tho five-twenty bonds can bo legally paid in legal tenders end ought to be so paid. 2. All debts of a public character, net oth erwise promised in gold, are to he paid in le gal-tenders. 3. One currency for all, and equal and com mon taxation upon all, most be affirmed as Democratic principles?opposition to privi leged classes which receive favors and aids from the government not given to the masses, follows logically, from the adoption of this principle. 4. The publio debt is to be paid as soon as possible, without too groat an inflation of the currency, in order to save an annual drain of] $150,000,000 a year, now paid in tho shape of] j interest upon the principal of said debt, j 5. A national debt is a national curse, and efforts must be directed for its speedy liquida tion. ?4m. General Hancock's Opinions. The following letter from General Hancock by his private secretary, to Brevet Major O'Brien, of Mount Pleasant, one of the offi cers of the Democratic Club of that town, will be road with interest at this time: New Vonk City, Juno 19. To Lieutenant Et heard F. O'Brien, Charleston, S. C: M v Dkar Sin : Mnjor-Gonerul Hancock re ceived your letter of tho 8th instant, whilo on a visit to this city, and was much pleased to hoar from an officor of his old corps. The public and private expressions of confi dence he has received from the citizens and soldiers of the country are Tory warmly ap preciated by him. At tho same time ho dues not seek advancement in tho oivil service of tho nation, nor will he permit his name to be used in antagonism with any portion of tho Domocratio party. It the delegates assembled in convention on tho 4th of Jnly next, should deem it necessa ry for the success of tho Democratic party that he should carry their standard, and upon a proper platform, his duty would impel him to aocept it. I am with great respect, Very truly yours, DUNCAN S. WALKER, Address: Headquarters Soldiers and Sail ors, No. 35 East Soventeenth-street, New York. _ \_ General Wade Hampton. A correspondent of tho Richmond Whig, writing from Lexington, says of Gen. Hamp ton's late speech boforo tho Literary Societies of Washington College : This address was no sky-soraptng, morning glory affair, but earnest, wholosomo, manly ad vice from an older to yonngor brethren. lie exhorted all to labor earnestly to lurid! up the State und country, intellectually, morally, ma terially." Tho correspondent of tho Dispatch, in an account of tho Alumni Supper, states that tho 4th regular toast was: The Fullen Heroes of the War I Noble mon ! Tho Btory of their tunrtyrdom adds fresh lustro to a motto too often sneered at, "/>u/ce ct decorum est pro putrid mori," General Kchols said be would call on to re spond to that toast tho man whom our fallen I heroes would call on if they could speak I General Wado Hampton. General Hampton said that ho was proud to think that our fallen braves would bo willing .to aocept votive offerings from him. Alluding most touohingly to onr martyred dead, ho said that our grief should be tempered as we re member that thoy full whoa they thought thoy would not fall in vain, that they foil in tho bright hopo that success would crown our ef forts. But he did not believe that thoy had fall en in vain?the cause for which Jackson and Stuart fell caftuot be in vain, but in some form Would,' ye> grjumph.
