that the Northern people are themselves tired of this ku-klux nonsense. It is time to have done with it. THE DISABILITIES REMOVED. The Washington Patriot says: As there seems to be a misapprehension in parts of the South, in regard to the legislation of the last j Congress, concerning the removal of certain 1 disabilities, we republish the Act. Previous j to the passage of this law, a large class of per- j sons who had served in the Confederate army, I but were not under the ban of the fourteenth amendment, were disqualified from holding any oivil or military office under the United States or under any State, because they could not take what is commonly known as the "iron clad oath." ..They are now entirely relieved, and five members are sitting in the House of Representatives from Southern States, who could not have been admitted to seats but for this partial measure of justice. They had been Confederate soldiers, but had held no office, Fedhral or State, which rendered them obnoxious to the fourteenth amendment. In interpretation given to the Act by the House of Representatives, in the case of Hon. A. M. Waddell, of North Carolina, masters in equity are not held to be "offices" in the sense of the fourteenth amendment. Consequently,.every man who was not a member of Congress, or an officer of the United States, or a member of the State Legislature, or an executive or judicial officer of any State, and who, in that capacity, took an oath to support the Constitution of the United States before engaging in the rebellion, is npw eligible to Congress under the Act of February 3,1871, which is cited from page 23, of the laws of the United States: * ' a [Public?No. 29.J H^^AirjV.ct juasogbing an oath of office to be taken by persons who participated in the late rebellion, but who are not disqualified from holding office by the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the" United States. Be it enacted bv the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That when any person who i3 not rendered ineligible to office by the provisions of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution shall be elected or appointed to any office of honor or trust under the Government of the United States, and shall not be able, on account of his participation in the late rebellion, to take the oath prescribed in the Act of Congress, approved July 2, eighteen hundred and sixty-two, said person shall, in lieu of said oath, before entering upon the duties of said office, take and subscribe the oath prescribed in an Act of , Congress, entitled "An Act prescribing an oath of office to be taken by persons from whom legal disabilities shall have been removed," approved July 11, eighteen hundred ; and sixty-eight.

The Washington Patriot, of the 2d, publishes the following article in response to a statement telegraphed on Saturday, copied from a . , Washington evening paper: The sub-committee, consisting of Messrs. Scott, Stevenson and Van Trump, appointed to investigate the alleged outrages in South Carolina, returned to this city on Saturday ! >, afternoon, and immediately after a statement! was published, on the authority of the Kadi- , which was subsequently telegraphed over tie | country lay the Associated Press. We are au- ] thorized, by Judge Van Trump, to pronounce ( . that publication untrue in many essential par- ] ticulars and a perversion of facts in others, j evidently colored with the purposes of pro- < ducing a partisan and false impression. The testimony shows that there are four counties, < namely, Laurens, Chester, York and Spartan- j , burg, where acts of violence have been com- ; raitted on both sides. The whites and blacks * are nearly equally divided in population, aud the carpet-bag rule, by which the negro is for- i i cibly put over the white man, has produced a ! i bad, and even dangerous, state of feeling, i i * The poor whites are mostly aggrieved at an !! oppression which is intended to make them 1 the inferiors of recent slaves steeped in ignor- | ance and vice. Everything has been done to j ' aggravate the laboring whites to outrage the social condition of their families. On the very eve of the last election Gov. Scott organized fourteen negro regiments and armed ; them with 7,400 Winchester rifles and 100,000 rounds of fixed ammunition. These reg- ; iments were distributed in different parts of I the State, and especially where their presence < would be most likely to excite bad blood. This proceeding was rendered more offensive i by the fact that the whites, who had become i alarmed, were refused the same privilege to protect themselves. A company which had been in existence ; ! long before this time was disarmed and dis- j banded by the Governor. It is in proof before this committee that negroes, disguised as 11 Ku-Klux, committed many outrages. The j i testimony given by the negroes was of the I lowest kind, and utterly unworthy of belief.! They were attracted by the fee of $2 per diem,; and, in many cases, were evidently drilled for j the occasion. At Spartanburg numbers of them were congregated in the post office while | waiting to be calied as witnesses, and, doubt- j less, learned the lesson which was afterwards j rehearsed substantially in the same words. Of the various negroes who pretended to j have been punished, but one was stripped ;i and one white man at Columbia, who, while claiming to be a refugee from terror, was holding an office there at the expense of the State. His fictitious wound had been healed j with that plaster. In the Radical statement, j it is broadly alleged that ten negroes were : taken from the jail in Union and murdered j by an armed band, but the facts connected j with this transaction are all intentionally sup-[ pressed for effect. They were as follows : A company of some twenty-five armed negroes j appeared in that neighborhood and openly j announced their intention to shoot the first, white man they should meet Soon after a poor drayman named Stephens, with one arm,: who was universally regarded as a worthy and amiable man, was driving along the road with q Korrol <vf wViiolroT7 in hia nftrt Hfi WSS StOD" ? V* IfiUWttVJ 4U 4?*W VVM x ped by this band of ruffians and the whiskey demanded. He told them that it was not his property, but gave them a flask of his own , and started. After going a short distance the negroes fired at his eart and struck it in : several places. A man who had joined Ste-' phens in the road, fled for his life, and he himself seeing the armed negroes in pursuit, abandoned the cart and sought refuge in a neighboring cabin. He was followed by the wretches, and against the efforts of the negro womanv whose humble shelter he had sought, i and his own, he was taken out. After draw- j ing lots, five of the gang took him into the woods and riddled his body with balls. The . perpetrators of this outrage were arrested and put in the Union jail, but before being secur-; ed, they killed the Deputy Sheriff, Smith, who served the process. Suddenly a negro came j from Columbia with what purported to be a i writ of habeas corpus from the Radical Judge Thomas, at Columbia, but attested in no proper form. The Sheriff called into counsel the leading lawyers in order to determine what course he should pursue in regard to this in- j formal and irregular requisition, which bore ,v no evidence of genuineness, and came in an envelope of the Adams' Express Company, i Meantime, the news spread, and a vigilance j committee roused iDto indgnation, knowing how Governor Scott had pardoned the worst criminals by hundreds, and believing it to be a trick to carry off the murderers, determined to administer stern justice themselves by making an example to check this outlawry. They took the prisoners out of jail by force and executed them summarily. One of the number was released by the declaration of a white man that he-was believed to be innocent of the atrocious crime of which the others were guilty. While this act of vengeance is deprecated, the extraordinary provocation and the alarm created by the armed blacks, as well'as their violence, must be considered in connection with it. The other statements might be exposed with equal effect, but this illustration is sufficient for the present purpose. One of the principal witnesses, named Owens, on cross examination, admitted himself to be a thief. Congressman Wallace, who was elected first by the House of Representatives, and then by stuffed ballots, in a District with 5,000 Democratic majority, followed the committee everywhere, and was one of the active managers in ' ; AX* ?? ?- " - " n ffn i r in llfllinll geiuilg up U2>UUJUUjr. 1UC ttiiau iu ituivu he figured at Yorkville, and which was telegraphed all over the country as a gross outrage, exhibits the purpose to magnify and exaggerate for political effect. He was seated next to Mr. Stevenson, of the committee, at the hotel table, when a man named Berry, who formerly had a feud with Wallace, entered in a state of intoxication. Discovering his old enemy, he seized a pitcher of milk and threw it at him, whereupon Wallace drew a revolver and would have fired, but for the intervention of those present This was the extent of that outrage, and Berry, when sobered, sought to make every atonement, as the citizens did who were injured by his reckless conduct. / J ' ,i / xfThWe fsTao^oliffeaT feeling ofany kind in the unfortunate disturbances which have occurred in these few counties of South Carolina. They result from mal-administration, corruption, robbery, carpet-bagging, and especially among the poor laboring white men, from a wicked purpose on the part of the authorities arid the Legislature to assert black supremacy and degrade them with negro rule. That is with them, perhaps, the real and most serious difficulty. It is a question of race, which, as the government of South Carolina is now administered and sustained by Federal power, threatens the gravest consequences. The white mechanic and laborer, when he finds the worst criminal protected and pardoned, the law an engine #of persecution, political power abused in order to oppress him with negro domination and to outrage his wife and children, will resist, be the sacrifice what it may. He may be uneducated and plain, but he is still American and proud of his race. From the Washington Chronicle, 4th inst. KU-KLUX KLAN. PLATO DURHAM ON THE STAND. Hon. Plato Durham, 6f Shelby, Cleveland county, North Carolina, was examined before the sub-committee on Wednesday. He is a native of Rutherford county, North Carolina; was a member of the last State Legislature; wa$ Democratic candidate for Congress in 1868 in the 7th district; is now a practicing lawyer in the counties of Cleveland, Rutherford, Macon, and Gaston. He has heard within the last five or six months of outrages by bands of disguised men in the county of Rutherford ; also in the counties of Cleveland, Catawba, Lincoln, and Gaston. He knows nothing about them personally, and believes they have been to a great extent the result of the incompetency and corruption of Judge Logan, Republican judge of that circuit At the last spring term of court there was a petition signed by lawyers asking the Legislature to remove Judge Logan from office. The Legislature does not meet until next November, and there is another term of the court before that time. He does not know why such a petition has not been gotten up before; nor why it was not delayed until the next term of the courts, which takes place before the legislature Mm; g . Judge' Logah has recently been exceedingly active in having arrested parties accused of committing outrages in disguise; has had many arrests made, and parties bound over, and is now engaged in investigating offenses of this character. He is . especially active in the investigations now going on in the town of Rutherfordton. The above petition was gotten up after he had engaged in the arrests and prosecutions, as mentioned above. He does not believe it was for the purpose of deterring him or rendering his investigations less efficient or less entitled to the confidence of the public. At the last term of the courts he (Judge Logan) disbarred a lawyer named D. Schenck. It was after this that the petition was gotten up. Mr. Schenck is a leading Democrat, and is reported to be a leading member of the Invisible Empire or Ku-Klux in the county of Lincoln. "*Tr* 1 !_.i! 1 >V ltness joinea an orguuizauuu auuwu iw | the Invisible Empire, in the town of Shelby, in the winter of 1869 ; he was told that it had been in existence in that county four or five months previously; he joined the camp at Shelby; there were two or more camps in the county; it was organized for protection against the negroes, and to counteract the teachings of the Radicals and the Loyal League; they took an obligation in the form of an oath, the substance of which he did not fully recollect ; he was present at but two meetings; Mr. McAfee, a Democratic member of the present Legislature from th6 county of Cleveland, is the chief in that county. H. C. Jones, of Charlotte, a Democratic member of the present Senate of North Carolina, told witness that he was a member of the order in 1867; they had signs and pass-words, which witness gave to the committee. D. Schenck, who was disbarred by Judge Logan, is known to witness as a member of the order; witness' law partner, a Mr. Lee, is a member of the order. The last meeting that witness attended was in February, 1871; the organization exists in the county of Rutherford; Mr. R. A. Shotwell, formerly editor of a Democratic paper in Rutherfordton and Asheville, is a member of the order. He gave the names of many other persons who are members. H. Caboness a leading member of the bar in Shelby, is a member. At the Superior Court in Rutherfordton, the last of March, 1871, witness was ^attendance ; thc^e was a kind of reorganization of the order in Rutherford county du- j ring the court week; witness was present, ana several new members were initiated ; he did not initiate any members himself; some were initiated in his room at the hotel; Mr. Caboness conducted the initiations; he thinks the order was meant for good purposes, and that it has had a tendency to keep the negroes in their places ; in the county of Cleveland there are about four white men to one negro; about the same proportion in Rutherford; the organization was not meant for political purposes. He thinks it has existed in many counties of the State for the last two yearn, but not in all the counties; he does not know that H. C. Jones is the State chief, nor does he know who is the chief of the State; he does not know who was the chief of Cleveland county before Mr. McAfee was elected chief; he does not know who is the chief of Rutherford county, nor how many camps there are in the county; he has heard of the existence of the order in Spartanburg and York counties, South Carolina, which border on Cleveland ; has heard of men from South Carolina who had come over the line and engaged in raids in Cleveland and Rutherford counties on the night of the raid upon Rutherfordton, when Mr. Justice was attacked and the Star office destroyed; he heard that forty men came over from South Carolina and crossed a ford on Broad river in Rutherford county and went in the direction of Rutherfordton. "Witness lives within ten miles of the South Carolina line; does not know that Mr. Shotwell was engaged in the raid upon Rutherford, and does not think he was, because he believes him to be too humane and gentlemanly a man to engage in such an outrage. Witness has appeared as counsel for some of the prisoners, arrested by Judge Logan ; he appeared in the late circuit court in Raleigh for the prisoners there indicted for being engaged in ku-klux outrages; two of them were from Cleveland and twenty-seven from Rnthj erford ; the prisoners were arrested and taken to Raleigh upon a warrant from the United States Commissioner; before leaving Shelby about ten or twelve citizens of Cleveland gave witness the power of attorney to sign the bail bonds of any or all of the prisoners to the amount of 845,000 ; these men all resided in Cleveland, and twenty-seven of the twentynine prisoners resided in Rutherford county; the men who gave him this authority were among the best citizen? of the county of Cleveland, and amply Ttble to pay the bonds ; this authority to sign their bail was given him before it was known whether the prisoners would be indicted and held to bail or not. Witness has heard that forty or more members of the order in Rutherford have made written confessions, upon oath, before Judge Logan, and that some of them have disclosed that witness is a member of the order, and have said that he was the chief in uieveiana ; witness is not the chief in Cleveland, nor did he ever hold any office in the organization; he has seen disguises worn by persons on raids, but he was never on any raid himself, nor did he ever know or have it intimated to him that any outrage or attack was to be perpetrated upon any individual until after it had occurred ; witness heard nothing of any design to make the raid upon the town of Rutnerfordton until aflier it had occurred. The examination of Mr. Durham continued for more than five hours, and many additional important facts were elicited. ? ! A Costly Job?Martial Law Probable for South Carolina.?The Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun wajtesj r l<Thrf Ktijtelux iTrvestigafftn ordreren by Congress in April is at last reaching its end. The sub-committee sent into South Carolina returned yesterday, and the full committee are about,to adjourn till fall. Nearly 2,000 pages of printed evidence have been taken, and the expenses of the investigation even thus far will reach fully $50,000. The subcommittee, in violation of the rules adopted for its government, seemed so very anxious to make out a good case that when they arrived here they were very prompt to furnish a onesided and partisan account of the investigation for the press, presenting a scene of bloodshed and outlawry in that section far in excess of even the sensational and exaggerated accounts heretofore given. Most of the evidence of outrages comes from colored persons, while on the part of the white witnesses there is a very general denial of the existence of any armed Ku-Klux organization. It is not pretended that there have been no troubles. ' ~ ?*fk*nk n tvkmmfa o 1 1 ?ne oppressive utxauuu, wuku muuuuu almost to practical confiscation, the appointment of tax-collectors who cannot read and write to collect taxes of the disfranchised class, the geueral corruption of the State adI ministration, and finally the wholesale pardons by the Governor of convicted felons, have all contributed to demoralize the proper enforcement of the civil power for the maintenance of law and. order. It is quite probable, however, from the intimations which have been given, that the evidence taken by a majority of the committee will "be made the basis of an appeal to the President for the declaration of martial law in three or four counties in South Carolina, and the enforcement of the feature of the Ku-Klux bill which authorizes a suspension of the writ of habeas corpus."

The flower-bedecked the meandering stream, the blossoms of _ Swing, the silvery moon, the rising sun, the glow- I iiwtvpet tinged with the mellow hues of depart- * j 'f^fc??J??.the star-spangled canopy of heaven?all _ he^Kdolentwith beauty?all glow with divine 'tirv^aW mated nature still more beautiful. heautifol and pyfect ojf all I ? mien, aiiKelii! form, See glow- " ingjwitft Health, cheeks irradiated with the crim\ ^on)-tvnpe of innocence, and her whole nature ar- ? ray yd In one grand halo of exquisite beauty. But wltfle dame nature has done all this for you, T ladies, you must do, for yourselves, J SOMETHING MORE YET. ; It remains fbr you to complete the very climax of yourterrestrial beauty and suavity, by embellisfcing 'nature's handiwork' with a little of the T artificial material, peculiarly dcsignedjto enhance Jyour natural look; and to be found only at the "Old Plank Shanty." Nature is always* beauti ful. Follow her and get in unison with her and j you will always be in good taste. Will you neg- ' lect your duty ? ? "Nature will do her part, Do thou but thine." THIS IS THE IDEA. Economy is nature's universal motto. Waste, she perfectly abhors and never permits. What she cannot use to the best advantage at one time, stie Lays Dy in store tin sne can tnus use it. xj.u?rv,-headed fathers. Thoughtless youth. Men of aliages and circumstances, learn a lesson from _ thlft^veritablo truth. Woful want follows wilful ? waste. When you spend your money, do it to the best advantage, and "gather up the fragments that ?j?j nothing be lost." Save your spondulix till you rpj ha?A time to come and see cheap JOE, if you -p] want the real worth of your labor. "A penny saved is equal to two pence earned." J. W. CARROLL. NOW WE HAVE IT. A ITS strange, but none the less true, that man is A' the continual dupe of man, that friendship is A1 an empty name, ana that the world is one huge storm of loud pretensions. But as an exception to-tMs rule ana with the honest intention of deceiving no man, Cheap JOE holds out promises not to be abused. Honesty is the best policy. Ci Dishonesty may make a dollar to-day, but will Cj prevent the acquisition of many hereafter. Hence Ci we are sailing under true colors and practicing sincerity. J. W. CARROLL. Itt. JONES, AGENT, m * M ADAM AS A HUSBAND. M LOOK at him! He was not deceived. Eve had sinned, and he rashly resolved to perish with her. The witchcraft of ensnaring fondness transferred his affection8 from the Creator to the crea- A' ture. He surrendered his loyalty, and identified A' his fortunes with the fete of his wife?"feir as the A' clotids of sunset, and as frail." This seems, viewed only in its social aspect, so much a deed of unutterable tenderness?of exalted fellow-feeling?an act of such heroic desperation, that were -we governed by fancy only, we should almost imagine that when tho recording angel wrote the jj damning deed in his book, he dropped a tear of jj pitar and regret, and half erased it ere it dried. /Look now at one of Adam's sons of modern ~ tines, as ahusband. He sees his wife daily wear- ',A iu her life away, by her wearying, toilsome nee- ~f_ <M?-^ork,.and not onHA-efoses to sit down knd witli'her, the fate$raposed by Adam's -fell,'*' J^Hb^ndqr.flf wondoiW," he don't oven bitar-for Aar tk ready ' bejp, wllifee labors arejper- j i.'JHU OV tne "ureiesrt ?me\va ui ai*rci, a umgci jy * ^fBg Machine.
