This week we present The Rkcor- DEB to the Aiken public shorn of all patent advertisements. "We present nothing but the advertisements of re sponsible parties who bring their busi ness before the public through our office and no other agency. We desire to publish a paper devoted to the best interests of our County, State and country. We desire it to be a welcome visitor and a safe guide to the family circle. The flattering success of The Recouheu warrants us in the step we have taken. Our thanks arc* due to the jKiopfe of Aiken, Barnwell, Edgefield and Orangeburg Counties, us well as our numerous Northern friends, for enabling us to take a step which involves additional expense, but which insures a better pajH-r in -•very respect. Those who wish to ad vertise in The Recouhkb must make up their minds to deal only .with us and to pay a fair value for our services^ or they need not apply. makes them vibrate for the good of our whole j>eople and reflect credit ably upon the grandeur and nobility of our common country. God bless our people, North and South, and may party differences never estrange us or make us unkind, in our social or busi ness relations. e are one people. We have tried to l»e two; but Cod would not permit it. So mote in be! The Majesty of the Law He Vindicated. Must We publish elsewhere a report of recent outrages committed in Rich land County by anti-stock law ku- klux. Our views concerning the Stock ki\v have been stated on many occa sions, and therefore«ur readers must know that while we regard the law itself as a measure that will contrib ute largely to the future greatness and prosperity of our State, yet at the same time they must remember that we never advocated the passage of a general stock law, simply from mo tives of political expediency. We believed that the law would soon have become general if allowed to work its own way. In other words, the Legis lature should have left it to the vote of the counties. Every county that adopted it would have arrayed addi tional moral force in its favor. The difficulties arising in each county con sequent upon its adoption wbuld have been purely local, and would in no way have affected the general polities or good order of the State. We there fore regretted, as we still regret, the passage of a general stock law; but it now is the law' of the land, and the man or men who presume to defy the Statute book should he and will be dealt with in the most summary manner. - - The atrocities perpetrated by the anti-stock law ku-klux of Richland County call for the sternest condem nation of every good citizen of SoliMi Carolina. The Sheriff of Richland County, with his deputies, should ransack every hole and corner of the County until the offenders are brought to justice. If necessary the Governor should advertise handsome rewards for tho arrest of offenders in conspic uous cases; and should violence re sult In enforcing an arrest, no good citizen should await a summons from the Sheriff’ to join his jio&c in en forcing the mandates of the law. These outrages following so closely upon the formation of a Party of the People's club in Richland go far to show who are the disturbers of the peace and the enemies of decency and civilization. We insist that this lawlessness must be suppressed wherever it lifts its head. It has failed to find a lodgment In Aiken County. Our people may differ, but we cannot forget our alle giance to our grand old Carolina mother, and when her honor is at stake they are willing to bury all per- coual grievances and put their shoul ders to the car of progress and press her forward in the grand and glorious career she is illuminating by her en terprise, industry and thrift. On the first of October the law goes into ef fect in this Qouuty, and we have such confidence in our people that we be lieve the most violent opponents of the law will stand upon the side of law and order, and if necessary would aid the High Sheriff’of the County in enforcing the arrest of any man who dared to raise his miserable arm against the life or liberties of his neighbor for obeying the laws of his State and Country. We apprehend no such lawlessness in Aiken County; but should it come, it will be sup- pro^setV with a vigor aiul promptitude that will be a lesson to law-breakers, bum-burners and demagogues for all time to come. Col. Win. T. Thompson. One of the l»cst known and most shining lights of Southern journal ism has passes! from among us to join the immortal hosts on the other side of the dark and silent river. Colonel Thompson, senior editor of the .Sa vannah iVett'#, died on Friday evening last at bis home in Savannah. He was born at Ravenna, Ohio, on the 21st of August, 1812, and was conse quently in his seventieth year, lie was not only an ornament to journal ism, but had also obtained a reputa tion as an'nuthor mid humorist. He was the author of “Major Jones’ Courtship,” the “Chronicles of Pine- ville,” “Major Jones’ Travels,” and other sketches, also the well known farce of “The Live Indian,*’ and a j dramatization of “The Vicar of Wake- i field,” which was produced both in | Europe and America with great sue- ! cess. Hu 1ms been connected with ! on Tuesday night the pottery establishment of Lm- drum Btork, alsmt five miles from town in the sandhill country, was de stroyed by an incendiary fire. The warehouse and stock were destroyed, the losses amounting to from $800 to $1,000. There was no insurance on | is no wk i mil i ng~in wind Die property, and there is no doubt without good managem that the fire was incendiary. There i u lity, it wi had been no fire about the place dur- ing the day, and friends of (’apt.

It is strongly believed discovered nothing opp procured the commission of this crime. Capt. Stork has been a staunch advocate of the * law and has been making his preparations for its en forcement. Threats have been made against him if he should attempt to carry on ids planting'operations with out fencing his crops, which have not been regarded. These facts lead to the strong presumption that the anti- stock law people have tried to get even with Jum by burning his prop erty. Other outrages have been conimited in the disturbed seytion, and masked riders mid footmen have raided the country during the Jasst week, utter ing vengeuee airauisi those who desire to enjoy the advantages of the slock law. A coffin was left, a few nights since, in the piazza of Mr. 1*. H. Thorn ton’s residence, another at Mr. G. W. Smith’s, and anotner at Mr. Preston Medlin’s. The coffins have been or namented with skulls and crossbones, and in some cases threatening letters of “the wratli that is to come,” with vember. Yourn the usual display of poor penmanship various newspaper enterprises, but i and jmd spelling. Mr. Stork has ot- finally moved to Savannah in 1850 and | lered a rewind of $100 fur the arrest, commenced the publication of the Morning yew*, and lias been the chief editor of that paper ever since. Death of America’s Great Poet. Henrj' W. Longfellow, • the poet, died at Cambridge, Massachusetts, on the afternoon of Friday, March 21th. He.had just completed his seventy- fifth year. Thus it will I n seen that this eminent scholar and chaste and classic poet lias passed away in a ripe old age,crowned with immortal laurels and surrounded by his dearest friends. His writings are well known on both sides of the Atlantic, and are exceed ingly popular. with proof to convict, of the parties who burned down his pottery works, and active measures will no doubt be taken to discover the members of the club which lias taken the law into its own hand and is attempting to prevent the peaceable operation of an Act of the Legislature by force arid arms. When the United States officers get through with the election eases they might try their hands in the suppres sion of another Ktt-frhrk conspiracy. The Silver Chord* of Charity. We insist that our people are draw ing near together in every way, reli giously, morally, socially and na tionally. It is not necessary that people should think exactly alike, but it is necessary that men should think and act intelligently, and tlwt their hearts and minds should be animated with grand ideas of philanthropy and the blessed tenets of the simple but beautiful doctrines of Christianity. “Love thy neighbor as thyself!” These simple words are the sweet silver bells of human charity which the Babe of Bethlehem started ringing under the bright star which guided the Magi of the East from their far off homes to acknowledge the carpenter’s son of the line of David as the Prince of Peace and the Son of God. They have l»een ringing for nearly nineteen hun dred years, and will continue to vi brato upon the most sensitive chords ■of human sympathy as long us the blue fields of ether canopy the uni verse. These delightful reflections arc sug gested by the generous action of our Northern fellow-citizcnq^n several things of recent occuTrent*?, but espe cially in regard jo the handsome man ner in. which they have responded to jhe efforts of the ladies of St. Th.ad- Tho El leu ton Mail.. Our attention having been called to the fact that The Aiken Rkcokdek, which is promptly sent to the post- office every Tuesday morning at a very early hour, did not reach our subscri bers at Ellenton until Friday of each week, we determined to investigate the matter. We called upon Mr. Rowell, the efficient assistant-post master at Aiken, who politely placed us in possession of the following facts: It appears from his statement that there saddle-bag mkil which leaves Aiken every Thursday by the wagon road for Ellenton, and that according to general instructions from the post- office department he is forbidden to send tho mail by any other route when such a line exists and an office is not on the railroad mail schedule. In other words, Ellenton, which is situ ated on the Port Royal & Augusta Railroad, instead of receiving the Aiken mail by way of Augusta over the South Carolina Railway and the Rort Royal & Augusta Railroad, which would enable us to place The Re corder in the hands of our subscri bers on the day of its publication, has to wait until Thursday before oqr paper even starts from the Aiken post- office where it is placed two days pre vious. This is simply a most abomi nable arrangement, calling loudly for reform. If the citizens residing in the vicin- ity will only fc>rw«»iO «i i Postmaster-General asking that their office be placed on the railroad list, it would be promptly and cheerfully ac ceded to by the post-office department at Washington. Mr. Rowell says that according to a strict construction of the rules he has not even the right to send‘a letter from Aiken by railroad to that office, but that secingthe delay aud annoyance Incident to this awk ward and unmeaning arrangement he has for some time past taken the re- ^ spousibillty of sending the letters over the railroad by way of Augusta. He says, however, that he could not ven ture to go so far as to send the news paper mail in the same way. This important matter is entirely in the hands of our Ellenton friends. Send on a petition properly signed to the Postmaster-General at Washing- •hm-, mid-this intolerable nuisance wlH beat once abated.* We shall send a marked copy of The Recorder con taining this article to the post-office department at Washington, and also to Senator Butler and jCongrcssman 1 Tillman, who are both subscribers. The people of Ellenton' may rest as sured that they can count on qpr earn est efforts to aid them in this matter, and we particularly request that they will also help themselves by taking prompt action. There is nothing more annoying than inconvenient mail arrangements where the facili ties for a daily mail already exist, but only await a little earnest effort to bring them into immediate utility. —Advices from various manufactur ing towns in Massachusetts disclose a very sad condition of tilings. Opera tives are dissatisfied, wages are re duced, and strikes seem to be the or der of the day. At Lawrence a large number of spinners and weavers have struck, not for higher wages, but against reduction of wages, and the indications are that the strike will reach alarming di mensions. The spin ning girls have la*cn receiving ninety cents a day, and the proposition is to reduce their wages to sixty-eight cents per day, and about the same rate of reduction falls upon other operatives. Borne of the mills declare as high as 40 per cent, dividends, and the stock.] touches and ! is quoted as high as $3,700, while its j par value is only $1,000. The Boston iVsf speaks of the condition, of the operatives as being about as. bad as can be. - The Political Situation. The following from the Abbeville Press and Banner correctly states the political situation. Our cotemporary of the Greenville News, however, is requested to strike the Aiken P. P. from its list, as they have no qrgani- zation, and in fact are utterly defunct: “The political outlook in South Car olina is not so gloomy as might be supposed. .The soreheads, malcon tents and other office-seekers have had tiieir say, and, very much to their astonishment, they have no following worthy of consideration in any part of the State. Their bluster and talk of taking possession of the govern ment we believe has bad the effect of consolidating the fragmentory ele ment that may have been disposed to slough off into the arms of the negroes of this State, and if our leaders man ifest any art in handling the Demo cratic 1 lusts, we will be sure to score another victory in Novenil*er. Ourf people need not entertain any thought of looking to #ny other source than the Democratic party for the best nossible government for South Caro lina. Our grievances can he settled within tlie party lines. And we are fully competent to the task of self- government without the aid of polit ical aspirants to office, or the concur rence of the enemies of good govern ment. These noisy malcontents will find our ranks closing and their im aginary following diminishing as the fight waxes hot. The Greenville News marshal* the strength of the opposition to Democ racy in this manner, and we believe it to he a fair statement: Ofie Party of the People’s club in Kershaw; the ditto in Aiken; one Greenback club in Feasterville; J. Hendrix McLean, ex'-candidate for Congress; Mr. Bas kins, of Sumter, prospective candi date for Congress; Mr. John Cunning ham, present candidate for Congress: Robert Fiffliburne, State Senator and anti-stock law advocate; Tilman It.
