erected on the street in front of Allen & Barber's
store. These acts of wantonness are attributed
to political opponents, and it speaks
well for the forbearance of the citizens of
Rock Hill, that the perpetrators of the dastardly
deed were hot immediately ferreted
out an<l summarily punished.

THE RECENT ELECTIONS.
A dispatch from Denver, dated the 14th,
Rftva t.h? State tinlrat of Colorado will CO Re
publican by a very small majority, but the
official count is required to decide the election
for Congressmen.
Ohio has gone Republican by a reduced
majority. The next delegation in Congress
from that State will stand twelve Republicans
and eight Democrats.
Official returns from all the counties in the
State of Indiana give Williams, Democrat, a
majority of 5,494 over Harrison, Republican.
The majority for most of the Democratic
State ticket is much larger.
The official vote of Georgia gives Colquitt,
Democrat, a majority of 65,036.
Two Democratic United States Senators
are secured by the election in West Virginia.
CHAMBERLAIN'S * PRESENT ATTITUDE.
A dispatch from Washington dated the
14th, says that the formal written application
of Governor Chamberlain for United States
troops, to aid him in enforcing the laws as
Chief Magistrate of this State, arrived in
that city on Friday last, and was placed before
the authorities. The application, it is
asserted, states that the Governor is absolutely
unable to repress domestic violence. Last
Tuesday was set as the day for considering
' ; the application.
The Columbia correspondent of the News
and Courier telegraphs that paper on Sunday,
that Gen. Ruger, the General commanding
the United States forces in the Department of
the South, arrived in Colombia on Saturday
night,'and had a long interview with Governor
Chamberlain; fasting until 1 o'clock Sunday
morning. What passed in the interview
is not definitely known, though it has transpired
that Gen. Ruger says* that President
Grant has informed him, through official
channels, that, as the Goveilior is unable to
afford protection to citizens in the exercise of
their rights, it is his (Ruger's) duty to see that
they are protected, and to do all in bis power
to prevent such "outrages" as are alleged to
have occorred in Aiken and Barnwell. Gen.
Ruger has had an interview with Col. Haskell
also, and informed him that Democratic
negroes Will be protected from violence or intimidation
by persons of their own color or
others.
AFFAIRS EDGEFIELD.
A Republican mass meeting was appointed
for Edgefield on Saturday last, a lengthy account
of which is given in the Union-Herald
of Monday. That paper represents that on
the day named, the Edgefield Democracy were
out in full force, "with red shirts, black belts
and the ever-ready navy revolver"?all monnted,
of course. Democratic papers and correspondents
are usually rather inclined to exoneration
in estimating the number of horsemen
at the Democratic meetings; bat the Union-Herald,
whether it gets its cue from that
sottrefc'or nbt, puts tfiem down on the'present''
occasion at 1,600, whom it denominates as riflemen,
and represents them as being a terror
to civilization. Fortunately, there was present
a force of 145 United States soldiers?officers
and men?and as the Republicans were
out in full force, the mounted "riflemen" did
no mischief, further than organize in the public
square in front of the Court House, when
Gen. Gary and Gen. Butler spoke. The Union-Herald
informs us that "They told their
men that a force of United States marshals
and a United States commissioner had arrived
with additional United States troops;
that the purpose of the Republicans was to
bring on a conflict by arresting them (Gary
and Butler) and then to place the State under
martial law. As Chamberlain had been afraid
to come, and had sent only inferiors like
Smalls and Brayton, the determination to
"divide time" at the republican meeting had
been abandoned. The speeches of the two
leaders were calui and unexciting. The effect
upon their followers was for a few moments
doubtful, but the prudent soon acquired the
command and acquiescence seemed to be decided
on." The Union-Hirald further says that
at about 2 o'clock Butfe:: requested of chief
Deputy Marshal Low permission to pass his
men around the meeting and give it a cheer.
Failing to obtain the Marshal's consent, Butler
determined to pass around the meeting with
his men, guaranteeing that no disturbance
would occur. Then, as the Herald reports:
"Presently the head of thecolumnof rifle clubs
could be seen riding, four abreast, down the hill
from the town, where a little branch runs across
the road, and then wind up on the hill where the
meeting was. General Butler took a position and
passed his men in review. At one time the
column head halted, when General Butler ordered
one of his aids to give his compliments to the
captain of the leading company and to march on
to the village. The L nited States marshals stood
between the meoting and the cavalry, and thus
prevented the near approach of the two bodies.
They rode slowly by, yelling and cheering for
Tilden and Hampton. The moment that the
1 QnnotAfi Pain oblliis? iinnn fho
C'XieeriU^ uc^ail ocunwi VOJ1I VU.IVU v.jj..u ,uv A,v
publicans for cheers for Hayes and Cnamberlain.
The two parties thus continued to cheer and
counter-cheer for about twenty minutes, as the
cavalry filed by. One man only dropped from the
ranks and attempted to strike a negro who was
dancing and yelling for Hiyes and Chamberlain.
But General Butler saw him and ordered him
again to his place. An est mate of the rifle clubs
was made, and the number appeared to reach 1600
mounted men, of which nine were negroes.
These were very ostentatiously armed with pistols
in holsters strapped to their hips."
? The Columbia correspondent of the News
and Courier, who attended the same meeting,
gives the following brief account of it:
"At the last moment Governor Chamberlain
declined to go to Edgefield, and sent Smalls, Fillebrown,
Brayton and Haj-ne instead. They were
accompanied by Commissioner J. G. Thompson
and six deputy marshals, under the command of
Marshal James P. Low, with instructions to arrest
any persons who should attempt to divide
time or even to speak at or near the Republicans'
stand. I accompanied them. They entered Edgefield,
but no notice was taken of their coming by
the whites, and the leaders spoke at the Academy
grounds to between five hundred and one thousand
negroes, of both sexes and all ages, without
molestation. About two thousand whites, of
whom twelve or fifteen hundred were mounted,
were present in town, attracted by the report that
Chamberlain would speak. When it became
known that he bad not arrived, and that a trap
had been set to betray the whites into a difficulty,
Gens. Butler and Gary and Governor Bonham
and Mr. Tiluaan briefly addressed the whites at
Courthouse Square, saving that if Chamberlain
bad come they should have insisted on being
heard, but did not propose to take any notice of
the cat's-paw party he had sent in his place, as
they wanted higher game. They understood the
scheme that whs on foot, and did not intend to
afford any excuse whatever for the high-handed
proceedings intended to be instituted for effect at
the North. The fight Is alreadv won in Edgefield,
and they would not do what the Radicals
desired above ail things. They counselled the
_ people to keep away from the Republican ineet'
lug and to return to their homes qnietly, and
come back Wednesday to" hear Hampton. The
crowd insisted on paying the Republicans a visit,
and a column was formed, which rode out and
passed by the other stand without stopping or
causing a disturbance, both sides hurrahing continuously.
The procession, which was an imposing
one, returned to town by another street. One
or two addresses were delivered and all then disbanded
and went home. Not a single case of disorder
occurred, though the people were more exL
cited and enthusiastic than I have ever seen else^
I where. All the troops were kept in a back yard
I during the day, under arms and ready to move at <
r call, but they were not needed, nor used." '

DEMOCRATIC SPEAKING.
Bj reference to notice in our advertising
columns, it will be seen that the appointments
for Gen. J. M. Leach to address the people of
York have been changed. He will speak at
Yorkville on Tuesday, the 24th instant, and
at Rock Hill on the day following.
Besides General Leach, other distinguished
speakers are also expected at each appointment,
and a general invitation is extended to
the public, without regard to party.
REPUBLICAN MEETING.
A handbill, issued by J. Hannibal White,
Chairman of the Union Republican party of
" ' .1 . _ m j?

instant, there will be a mass meeting of the
Union Republican party of York county, at
Yorkville, in advocacy and in favor of the
election of the candidates of the Union Republican
party of this State for Presidential
electors ; and also in advocacy and in favor
of A. S. Wallace, the candidate of said party
for Congress from this Congressional district.
The names of the speakers to be here are not
given; and a noticeable feature of the announcement
is, that the State Republican
ticket is entirely ignored.
BURGLAR SHOT* AND WOUNDED.
About 3 o'clock on Tuesday morning, the
10th instant, Mr. W. J. McGill, who owns a
Btore at McGill's Mill, eighteen miles west of
this place, discovered that a thief had burglariously
entered his store, and approaching
from his dwelling, accompanied by a negro
employ^ named Bean, about 85 yards distant,
they saw the leg of a man. protruding from a
window of the store building. Mr. McGill
fired his gun at the projecting leg; emptying
into the fleshy part of it about twenty squirrel
shot, and returned to the house to re-load
his gun, the thief still remaining in the window.
While Mr. McGill was thus absent,
the negro man who accompanied him from
his house, made several ineffectual attempts
to Are a pistol at the burglar, hut before he
could succeed in discharging his pistol, the.
tlviSf made' himself known, proving to be
George Bean, and a son of the old man who
but a moment before was attempting to shoot
him. The wounded negro was immediately
taken from the wiudow, and Dr. R. R. Darwin
was called to dress his wound, which is
net pronounced dangerous, after which a
warrant of commitment was taken out, and
the thief is now in jail.
CARD FROM TREASURER WATSON.
The report of the grand jury, at the late
terra of the Circuit Court, as to payments
made by me, as County Treasurer of York
county, to Rachel Leech, was certainly made
under a misapprehension of the facts. I cannot
believe that injustice would have been
done me if the facts had beeu before the
grand jury. I have receipts, properly attested,
as shown below, for the sum of $2,271.00
of the ku-klux tax, all of which was paid to
Rachel Leech by me, to wit:

AFFAIRS ifl AIKEN.
Up to our latest accounts there have been
sixty-one arrests in Aiken on charges of intimidation,
as we understand it, preferred by
negroes. All who have been arrested, or who
delivered themselves to the authorities, have
been released on bail. A dispatch from Aiken
says that the negroes who ra ike affidavits
against the whites, receive one dollar and fifty
cents for each affidavit. On Friday, fifty negroes
were before Marshal Wallace at Ellenton,
for the purpose of making affidavits. It
is represented that all excitement among the
whites has died away.
? The Union Herald of Wednesday of last
week publishes an interview . ith District
Attorney Corbiib, wherein the following s.gnificant
passage occurs in reference to Judge
Mackey's speech from the bench in York
county in reference to the execution of Taft's
order: "If he (Judge Mackey) desires to interfere
with them (the marshals) or their
deputies, he may at once do so and lead the
way in testing the validity of his own opinion.
I promise him he shall head the list of his
followers in the indictment, which I shall take
great pleasure in drawing and presenting to
a grand jury in the United States Court"
Corbin advises the marshals to proceed, and
any officer, high or low, of the State who internes
with them, does so at his peril.
Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer.
LETTER FROM CHESTER.
Chester, October 16, 1876.
C. S. Brioe, Esq., President of the Chester Rifle
Clnb, returned on Wednesday morning from Columbia,
wtef he had gone for the purpose of consulting
witPthe officers of other rifle clubs as to
the proper course to be pursued by such organizations
after the famous proclamation of Chamberlain,
requiring them to disband. In the afternoon
a special meeting of the Club was called to
bear his report. He sftid that he had consulted
with the officers of the rifle clubs at Columbia,
and that their determination was not to disband.
They had decided, he said, to abstain from drilling,
and all public demonstrations for the present,
but would continue to hold their business meetings,
and be in readiness for any emergency that
might arise. Mr. Brice advised the same course
of action for the Club he presides over bo well
and acceptably. Ho is so popular with his men
that any wish or recommendation by him is always
adopted.
Mr. Brice did not call upon Governor Chamberlain,
and consequently did not inform him of the
?.1? ...u:Au
action taken uv tne uuo on mummy, nmuu no
was instructed to do if he deemed it best to do so.
In his opinion, the circumstances of the case did
not require such a course of action. Ho says that
the people of Columbia havo an exceedingly low
opinion of Chamberlain, and barely notice him
when he appears upon the streets. How transient
a possession is popularity! Three or four months
ago almost every person was sounding the praises
of Chamberlain, and he appeared to nave reached
the topmost round of the ladder of fame ; but
he has now sunk so low in the scale of public estimation
that there are few so poor as to do him
reverence.
The gin house and barn of Mr. Means Sanders,
of this county, were destroyed by fire on last Tuesday
night. The torch was applied by the hand of
the incendiary. Mr. Sanders had insured the
buildings destroyed by fire only a few days previous
to the misfortune, but the amount of insurance
is said to be insufficient to cover the loss.
The times are so uncertain that farmers will consult
their interest in insuring their property.
The Chester Sabre Club left our town on Thursday
morning for the purpose of attending the
Democratic meeting at Rock Hill, that took place
there on that day. Gen. W. A. Walker, the President
of the Club, sent his horse by the wagon
road, but availed himself of the train to go to
Rock Hill. The Stonewall Fire Engine Company
also,.took passage on the train for our neighboring
town, to join in the great Democratic demonstration.
The Chester Rifle Club had decided, at a
previous meeting, to participate in the Rock Hill
gathering, but subseqnenly, from prudential reasons,
reeonRidered their determination, and decided
not to go.
An entertainment for the benefit of the Methodist
Parsonage at this place, was given at tho Female
Academy on Wednesday evening. Music,
tableaux, and charades wore the constituents of
the entertainment, which was attended and enjoyed
by a l%rge number of persons. A "scene from
Guy Mannering."a"3cenefrom Kenilworth," and
a "scene from Hiawatha," were among the representations
of the tableaux. Among the charades
that were acted were "Thorn among the Roses,"
"It never Rains, but it Pours," and "Boston Dip."
Among tho songs that were sung were "Waves of
the Ocean," "I really don't think I shall Marry,"
and "Dear Old Sunny Home." The lady performers
were Misses Sue Moore, Alice Hall, Julia
Killian. Lizzie Cousar, Mary Wylie, Sallie Hardin,
Nora Cousar, Eva Strobel, Lilly Moore, and
Fannie Jeter. The gentlemen performers were
William Hamilton, Jacob Kaufman, Jas. Walker,
Thomas Clawsonand Jacob Simmons. The entertainment
was a great success, whether regarded
in a musical, dramatic or financial point of view.
The Republican Executive Committee of Chester
county met on Thursday, for the purpose of
filling the vacancies on the county ticket, occasioned
by the refusal of Cant. Os. Barber and Mr.
Henry Moffat to serve. They met with closed
doors, and were some time engaged in discussing
the fresh embarrassments attending the political
situation. They would like to have given respectability
to the ticket by putting upon it the
names of two good white men; but they were
painfully aware of the folly of such a course.
They knew that nominations of this character
would have mot with tho same fate as those of
Barber and Moffat Consequently, the only solution
of the difficulty was that of filling the vacancies
ou the ticket with the names of Republicans,
in regard to whose acceptance of the nominations
there could not exist the shadow of a
doubt. For the Legislature, John Lee was nominated
in the place of Captain Barber, and for
County Commissioner, George McNeal in the
place of Henry Moffat. McNeal was a trial justice
at tho time of the late sitting of tho Court of
finnoral Sessions. when a true bill was found
against him for malfeasance in office, and upon
his trial before a petit jury he was convicted and
forced to vacate his office. It is but justice, however,
to him to say that the testimony on his trial
(lovcloj)od no intent on his part to defraud the
county. Still, if he displayed incompetency for
the position of trial justice, how much less is he
unfit for the more responsible office of county
commissioner. John Lee has served in fcotn
branches of the Legislature, and his warmest
friends will hardly be disposed now to invest him
with any honors to bfe won in the legislative arena.
votod, and wit)? thiw.bin labors,--an-a law-maker,
closed. With a competent white man for an
assistant, he is a greater success as a postmaster,
than he was as a legislator.
The Chester Sabre Club rode into town about
10 o'clock Friday morning, and were greeted
with cheers. They were highly pleased with their
trip to Rock Hill, and gave a glowing account of
the success of the Democratic meeting.
The preparations for the reception of Hampton
at this place were elaborate and complete. On
Friday afternoon the ladies, assisted by some
gentlemen, were engaged in decorating the speakers'
stand. The beauty of the decorations was
conspicuously manifest, and the stand, so handsomely
ornamented, was calculated to inspire the
utterance of the noblest and most patriotic sentiments.
The firing of cannon and the continuous cheering
on the streets, on Friday nifjht, foreshadowed
the gr&atness of the demonstration to take place
on the following day. The Democracy of Chester
were fall to overflowing with zeal and enthusiasm,
and needed some occasion to give vent to
their feelings. The requirement was fully met
by the grand Democratic meeting on Saturilay.
Saturday was a bright and beautiful day, and
one destined to be celebrated in the annals of
Chester. The morning was ushered in with the
roaring of artillery and hurrahs for the Democratic
chieftain, General Hampton. At an early
hour the Chester Sabre Club, with their beautiful
sashes and feathered caps, began to assemble on
Main street, preparatory to marching in column
to the depot, with tne view 01 meeung uenerai
Hampton, who was expected on the arrival of
the train from Yorkville. The General, with
Colonel J. H. Evins, Colonel J. H. Rion, Major
T. G. Barker, Captain H. S. Thompson and Captain
E. W. Moise, arrived in due time, were received
by .the Chaster Cornet Band with some
stirring musio, and the Sabre Club, and escorted
to the Cotton Hotel. As the party moved through
Main street, the welkin rang with cheers for
Hampton. And when the noble chieftain reached
the steps of the Hotel, he there found his pathway
strewn with flowers, and a number of young
ladies, ranged on either side, and bestowing upon
him their sweetest smiles. He, and the other
gentleman named, were taken to their rooms,
where proper refreshments were provided. About
this time mounted Clubs, from different
portions of the county, began to pour into town,
and as each Club marched through Main street,
hats were waved, and the air was musical with
cheers. A number of citizens paid their respects
to General Hampton at the Hotel. Among these
were soldiers of the late war, who had followed
his lead in battle, and now desired to take him
for their leader in times of peace. About 11
o'clock the procession, composed of mounted
Clubs from Carinel Hill, McAliley's Mill, Blackstocks,
Hazel wood, Rich Hill, Rossville, Landsford,
Lewis' and Lowrysville, with Gen. W. A.
Walker as Chief Marshal, began to move from
Patterson's Green, where they had formed, for
the scene of speaking. The procession was joined
at the Hotel by General Hampton and his party.
It moved to'Mrs. Wood's grove, where the
speakers' stand, so beautifully decorated, and
bearing in letters of evergreen the name of
Hampton, had been erected. General-Hampton,
who was the first speaker, was enthusiastically
cheered on being introduced to the immense audience,
composed, in part, ofladies. The colored
people were present, in large numbers, to listen to
General Hampton, as they had also appeared in
the procession. He began his speech by alluding
to the grand Democratic uprising throughout the
State. Tlio poople, hesaid, were aroused from the
mountains to the seaboard, and on the 7th of
November would give a Democratic majority of
about fifteen thousand. The distinguished speaker
then denounced Chamberlain, and his proclamation,
which he pronounced infamously false.
Ho had addressed, he said, probably one hundred
thousand men during the campaign, and he had
not. seen one armecl man. Persons sometimes
were forced to carry pistols, but this was done
for their own protection, as Chamberlain was unable
to protect them. The riots on the Combahee
were attributed to Chamberlain's inefficiencs*, as
he pave no protection to the laborers who were
willing to work, but allowed them to be ruthlessly
beaten by the rioters. General Hampton then
referred to the letters of Chief Justice Moses and
the Circuit Judges, bearing witness to the existence
of order and the. execution of judicial processes
throughout the State. The comments of
prominent Northern newspapers upon Chamberlain's
course were alluded to. If he wore elected
Governor, and a riot oecurrod, ho would not,
hesaid, run to Washington for troops, but would
disperse the rioters, and restore peace and order
by the assistance of the citizens of the State. He
appealed to the colored people to lend their help
in securing a victory for the cause of reform and
good government. "Their rights he promised to
maintain, and would resign before signing a bill
intended to deprive them of a single right. General
Hamilton was followed by Col. J. II. Rion,
Captain H. S. Thompson, aiid Captain E. W.
Moiso, all of whom made excellent and entertaining
speeches. As the people of York and Chester
counties have listened with delight to these
speeches, it is not necessary for me to give even
their prominent points. An interesting feature
of the occasion was the shaking of General Hampton's
hand by a large number of colored men.
The torch-light procession at night, was a magnificent
affair. A number of transparencies, with
appropriate inscriptions, were carried. Houses
along the line of maroh were brilliantly illuminated.
General Hampton and staffheaded the pro?
i cession in carriages. After marching through the
principal streets, the procession halted at Patte?j
son's Green, and were entertained for several
| hours in listening to flue speeches from Major
I Barker, Colonel Evlns and Col. Thomas. There
was a fine display of fire-works during the pro1
gressof the speaking. It is 'estimated that six
r
\
thousand persons were in town on Saturday. '
Chester equals, if she does not surpass, her sister
towns in the character of her political demonstrations.

Sensible Advice.
You are asked every day, through the columns
of newspapers and by your druggist, to use some- I
thing for Dyspesia and Liver Complaint that you
know nothing about, you get discouraged spending
money with but little success. Now to give
you satisfactory proof that {iREEN's august .
Flower will cure you of Dyspepsia and Liver
Complaint with all its effects, such as Sour Stomach,
Sick Headache, Habitual Costiveness, palpitation
of the Heart, Heart-burn, Water brash,
coming up of food aftereating, low spirits, Ac., we
ask you to go to your druggist, J. C. Kuykendal,
and get asample bottleof Green's August^lower
for 10 cents and try it, or a regular size for 75 !
cents. Two doses will relieve you. *
August 24 34 eawly
Questions for Every One to Answer.
Are you troubled with Indigestion, Constipation
of the Bowels, Dyspepsia or any disease of ;
the Liver? Have you suffered for years and 1
found no relief from the use of medicines? Do
- -have ? faint appettfrs ar*!- are you troubled
with_feelings of languor? If you have these
feelings we know you have not tried the new
discovery, Merrell's Hepatine, at JOHN C. '
KUYKENDAL'S Drug Store. It is performing
wnndorfiil pnrps In this and all other communi
ties where the people use it. It is pronounced by
all as the best Liver Medicine in the world. Two
doses will relieve the worst case of Dyspepsia or
Constipation of the Bowels. Each bottle contains
fifty doses, and a teaspoonful of this medicine in
a wineglassful of water three times a day for one
day, produces a most wonderful change. Where
the system is run down with loss of energv and
appetite, or Dyspepsia, with all its train of evil, .
is effecting its deadly work, this remedy, Merrell's
Hepatine, never fails to bring about a
speedy and permanent cure. Those who doubt
tne merit and virtues of this medicine and live *
from day to day without trying the Hepatine,
have our sympathy, but can not be cured unless
they take the Medicine.
