?EE-ACTION AT THE NORTH?WHAT WE
/ - ;SHOTJLl):BEAR IN MIHD.
\Tbe greatest danger to tie South ilics in the fact
. * .that cur people may become forgetful that the
present majority in Congress, although- the reac
--' ti'onary movement shall sweep every ? Slate, will
** continue in power for the- next eighteen months,
- under any circumstances. The laws that are to.
? govern the process of reconstruction have already
? '-been enacted, and must control our conduct and
* '-'" destiny until they arc repealed! This will never
*/r^be"dono by tte party enacting them: On the con
^"trary, with power being loosened from their, grasp,
? **.. and this seal of- condemnation set against them, it
- ia-consonant with their past history to believe that
additional hardsliips 'in'ay be imposed, and even
?^-^apore desperate efforts'put forth to establish negro
V supremacy. Goaded by defeat and oxas'perated
by political opponents at home, an excuse may be
furnished tiem-to impose more degrading terms
- ; upon any portion of our people who'shall unwisely
/.-' /endeavor to bring about a direct conflict between
r'-. the- South and Gongress: Wo are powerless and
prostrated. Does not evary man feel the force of
' . this truth ? Are there any so blind and.ignorant
as to believe that the South alone can defeat the
-nefarious purposes of this arrogant majority?" The
? ..battle must be fought on Northern soil, and we are
- to remain silent spectators. We must patiently
'.V "bide the time for our release from this political
?5! ..." bondage, and when the time arrives for our discn
^'-^thTa?nent, wo shall feel the shackles giving away
* V. -frora- our limbs and behold the sunligh U of liberty
-penetrating the dtvrkncss by which we are now
surrounded. Eriduranc_e:is a noble virtue, and its
:; ?.. lesson has yet to be learned by many of our people
- .who are rcstlees and chafed at the dispensations of
.-an overruling Providence. This quality is one of
M 'iho atttibutes of faith, and buoys up the depressed
; ?- spirit. Let us all exercise an abiding faith inthe
lij -jqstice.ef ? a Supreme Ruler, controlling the desti
^nies of nations as well as-individuals.
But let us examine this question more particn
3 larly.. It is of vast importance to consider when
tfie probable time will arrivo to effect a change of
"-rulers.- A cotemporary has stated the case bo fbr
-?.\'<r ./ciblyrthat we adopt its language:*
??', - - "Not one jot or tittle of those laws will be dis
?-^-'..-pensed with until the present majority in Congress
" I" "Js>.oyerthrown and sabstituted hy a party opposed
: ' to the- plan- of reconstruction tliat they .ordain.
^Xv.-'Eave wo any reason to believe that so tremendous
:;>VV-&revolution as this will occur in a single session
? ?f Congress ? When did it ever happen in this or
any .other country that such a majority as the Re
vi^puDlican. party now" wields In Congress wilted
^-"Siiaway and was lost at a single election ? But, ad
.- : mit that by soine'miracle the Republican majority
.'\"r .o? over one hundred in the present House of Rep
rosentatives is tobe supplanted_by a Democratic
;.^/r-znaj?rity in the next House?what of the Senate ?
s^r-^.^&Ere the majority is proportionately great, and
Senators are elected for six years. If every State
should, from this time, elect only Democratic Sena
tors,- it would require at least four years to over?
come the Republican majority in the Senate, and
^^jtbat majority must be overcome before the present
reconstruction-laws can be repealed and aDy other
LtC^jjlan of "restoration substituted. At least four
iC.w,jear8?-four years of military despotism, four years
2;'."? - of submission to the galling yoke of the conqueror,
four years'with the sword of confiscation hanging
"p^i^bj a hair above, four years of business stagnation
s^j^ind constantly increasing poverty and suffering?
?'~ ". and aH for the bare hope that one instead of the
^?;^-?thier of the parties will bejn power."
f.~':Thus it will be perceived that the Southern peo
"i:"~>ple have a long and gloomy night before them. It
~,.~jV*?mains to be seen whether or not they have the
? ; .-powers of endurance necessary to sustain them
'through the terrible ordeal, and possess the dis
?>~~ .-.cretion that is requisite to uphold their friends in
thoHor?i. The. New York Journal of Commerce,
?j?!rstable Democratic sheet, in alluding to several
'T< 'paragraph's copied from Southern papers,.exulting
the prospect of reaction,'says :.
*r$\^~- "Expressions like the above are becoming fre
'^VVJluCDt in Southern newspapers, but their truthful
^-"""?ness depends perhaps as much upon the deport-.
jaent of the Southern people in the coming months
~-~,*"as.upon anything else. They must abstain from
-?*;3any course of action or use of language that can
give ground of suspicion in regard the genuine
v.;'^ais* of their professions of loyalty, or that is ca?
pable of being perverted or misconstrued by reck?
less demagogues for purposes of mischief." '
Here wo havo the truth in a nutshell, and we
- would have it sink "deep into tho minds of all,
?V.; Especially do we commend this' utterance to those
5 i. '-new-fledged warriors, who stand ready toderounce
5*every.one aot disposed to coincide with tbeir ex
:r>lC'lrera?- notions. Bat we have another extract..and
?" ./with this'wdl conclude for the present. . ThoA'a
\\*'~- tional IntclUgcnccr is regarded as an organ of (lie
! -J ~*?rcsident.. That paper, in a recent issue, says
"""The wbite men of the whole South, should
>tf - know by'this time that reconstruction under the
Congressional plan cannot ba averted, and should
be wisc.enongh to control it to right results, so far
as this is now possible.- Oh themselves will be the
- Jess and suffering if they fail to do it."
" 5."" -"This declaration is semi-official, and should have
- due weight iu determining the position of every
" -. than who has heretofore sympathized with the
. / President. Unfortunately, so far as S*OHth Caro
l?i lina is concerned, the time is passed when it was
? possible for her white citizens to control, what
"caccot.be averted," to right results. Apathy and
?npineness have given over to the State irrevocably,
in fear:
-,-o
NEARLY GONE.
The so-called civil government of South Carolina
Is fast bscorning a farce. Juriea and Courts are
.? - - interfered with, and taxes are forbidden in certain
?^^".inatances. ? The military authorities exercise a
generaleupcrvisien, over the entire administration
of civil-affairs. The latest instance of interference
is^an order directing the Treasurer of the State to
pay all expenses incurred in maintaining the quar?
antine on the coast?established by military au
thority, be it remembered. These amounts are
ordered to be charged against certain nppropia
. tions made by ihc Legislature, thus diverting the
" ^ monies from their, proper and authorized channel.
- ? Aftho last session, the Legislature refused to make
any apjropriation for quarantine regulations, and
did n?t even authorize the salary of Port PbysTcntn
for Charleston. The city always provided tur the
maintenance of quarantine . before the war_
The existing regulations cost from ?2500 to
S3000 per month, we arc informed, and with the
present depleted condition of tho Treasury, it is
impossible to meet this demand, except with bills
receivable at a heavy discount. It is only neces?
sary to state the facts, in order to show the people
how rapidly the State is tending to complete mili?
tary domination.
Delayed.?Owing to an unfortunate
mistake at the paper mil!, wc arc compelled to issuo
a 'lay later than unial thia week.
LOCAL AND STATE NEWS.
Ye Local.?In introducing this new
feature. it may be very properly announced that-,
like nit other institutions of II13 kind, this column
is destined to become quite popular among the
readers of the Intelligencer. The "local" further
desires to say that he is proof against bribes of
every character, and will not deign to "notice'
any other man's business?unless politely requested
so to do. lie has no objection, however,, of being
complimented by his friends, and will receive every
kind of present, from a new hat to an elephant. A
gentleman in Columbia has taken time by the fore?
lock, and secured tho lasting admiration of the
genius who presides over these columns, by for?
warding a kit of mackerel. This is a brilliant ex?
ample, and one deserving of emulation!
Appointment.?We learn-that Dr. JoriN
L. Crumley-has received the appointment of Com?
missioner for the United' States Circuit and Dis?
trict Courts of South Carolina, His office will be
at thin place.
Postponed.?It was our intention to
take a. little stroll around the village, and blow up
some of these merchants this week. But lack of
time and want of space have prevented. People
who don't advertise need not expect "a place in the
picture1' A word to the wise, &c.
Court Week.?Tin? Circuit Court,
Judge Daweixs presiding, was engaged yesterday
in the trial of Elbert Brownlee, frcedman, indicted
for the murder of John H. McGill. About dark,
the jury returned a verdict of guilty
Nothing of general interest lias transpired in
the District Court.
XX.?Our readers will welcome tho
sprightly correspondent writing over this signature
from Columbia. As that place will shortly become
of prominent political importance, we trust to re?
ceive a regular resume of the news from the pen of
one so highly gifted ns our friend, and whose tal?
ents are not exercised often enough, especially in
our behalf.
Columbia as a Market.?Wo learn
that very low rates of freight have been agreed
upon from Columbia for produce and to Columbia
on- merchandize. This will place the deserving
merchants of that city on an equality with other
markets, and we hope to sec them doing a thriving
business.- We are also informed that a respecta?
ble firm there is offering salt by the quantity at
?2.90 for best Liverpool! This is a low figure, and
is nn evidence of enterprise and good transporta?
tion facilities-;
The Circus.?It is scarcely necessary
to direct attention to the circus advertisement
elsewhere. People will read circus, talk circus,
and go to a circus, before many worthier objects.
But we are not going to moralize on the subject,
and simply design asking attention to the fact that
Konixsox's Circus will give two performances at
this place on Monday next, 21 st inst. For par?
ticulars, see large and small bills, as "ibis estab?
lishment docs not advertise" heavily in the news?
papers.
Fire.?Tho alarm of fire, about twelve
o'clock on Wednesday night last, nrouscd many of
our citizens, when it was discovered that the scs
sion house of the Presbyterian church was in
flames, and beyond any possibility of being sub?
dued. "'Twasacalm, still night," and when the
crowd ascertained that there was no danger of
further progress, ihey quietly dispersed. The
origin of the fire is not definitely known. The
session-house was used for a school-room, but
there had been no fire in the afternoon, and when
school closed at 2 o'clock p. m. the embers were
extinguished by water. It was not an incendiary
act, for the building was of strall value, and too
far removed from the church to have endangered
that edifice under ordinary circumstances. Be?
sides, what motive would impel the destruction of
a church. Mysterious, very!
Horrible Murder.?We learn that an
atrocious murder was committed near Hunnicutt's
Crossing, in Pickens District, on Saturday night
last, under the following circumstances: It appears
that the young men of the neighborhood were en
gaged in a debating club at the school-house, and
that tho room was so crowded that many of the
younger boys remained outside of the house during
tho exercises. Not more than two hundred yards
off, at the same time, the negroes of the neighbor?
hood were organizing a Union League. This fact
was unknown to the white men assembled in the
school-room, or at least to many of them. A white
man by the name of Robert Smito, who was in?
toxicated, heard some talking in the direction of
the place where the Union League was assembled,
and proceeded to ascertain tbe canse thereof.
When near the house, he was halted and fired upon
by the sentinel, as he alleges, and the negroes de
clarc that, he shot at the sentinel upon being halted.
At any rate. Smith fled, and the sentinel and sev?
eral other negroes followed him, but without ar?
resting him. 'Fifteen or twenty minutes elapsed,
when the white men in the school-room were as?
tonished by a rock being thrown against the house.
They immediately rushed out, and discovered that
a large party of negroes were quite near and in a
threatening attitude. Amid the confusion that
ensued, a shot was fired by one of the negroes,
taking effect upon Miles IIuxntcctt, son of M. It.
Huxsicutt, aged about fifteen years. The white
men were unarmed and completely taken by sur?
prise, as they were ignorant of all that had pussed
hitherto. Most of them left, when it was discov?
ered that, young Hu.nxio'utt had been shot. Some,
however, demanded to know what the negroes
meant by such outrageous conduct. They were
answered by threats and imprecations, the negroes
declaring in substance tliat there had been one
war and there must be another, and this was a
good time to commence it; that they were in the
majority, and white men had to submit to them, or
leave the country. Finding remonstrance useless,
the white perBoas remaining proceeded to take care
of the unfortunate youth, and it was not until they
arrived at his father's house that the wound was
ascertained. He had been shot in the back of tho
head, by a small pistol bnll, lodging in the roof of
his mouth. He survived only a few hours.
Sunday morning, we learn, the negroes divided
into squads, searched many houses in that vicinity
and arrested several persons, under pretence of
trying to arrest Smith, who is alleged by them to
bo the aggressor. In fact, they now declare that
it was Smith who fired when young Huxxicutt
received his death-wound. But there are several
reliable white men who distinctly saw the negro
when ho fired the pistol, but failed to recognize
him.
When the intelligence reached this place on
Sunday afternoon, Col. Smith, the officer in com?
mand of this Military Post, promptly repaired to
the. neighborhood of Hunnicutt's Crossing, for the
purpose of investigating the trouble. Wc have not
learned, at tins -writing, tbe result of his investiga?
tion, or whether ntif arrests have been made.
We have no desire to comment upon this brutal
act. The facts bear with . them the strongest evi?
dence that the teachings of the Un-iom League arc
dangerous and inflammatory. As prudent men^
we should be prepared to defend our homes and
firesides, when necessary.
A Reliable House.?"Wo would cull
special attention to the advertisement of Messrs.
Fisher & Lowrance, Columbia, S. C. They im?
port their English Hardware, Guns and Iron, and
buy their American Hardware from the manutac
tures?arc close shippers, industrious and ener?
getic men. The senior partner, Dr. e. P. Fisueb,
is an old Virginia gentleman, and all who know
him love and respect him. He has been long con?
nected with the mercantile interests of Columbia,
and has an extensive acquaintance in the upper
Districts. Tlie junior member of the firm, Major
It. N. Lowrance, is an old acquaintance and friend
of ours?an efficient and popular officer in the Con?
federate army?and wC know him to be a wide?
awake man, full of energy, industry and persever?
ance, and with a clear head to guide him. He
knows that the interest, of the country is to buy
goods at low rates and that will" give good service,
and is ever watching to lay in his stock so as to
meet the wants of his customers, both as to price
and quality. We cordially commend this house to
our readers generally, as one possessing suporior
facilities and an earnest desire to render satisfac?
tion in every respect.
Augusta.?When you visit this thriv?
ing city, make an enrry call upon Dr. W. H. Terr,
who is eligibly located on Broad Street. His ex?
tensive and complete assortment of drugs and medi?
cines cannot, be excelled in the South, while the
entire establishment is exquisitely arranged and
beautifully ornamented with every fancy article in
his line of business. The Dr. is a pleasing and af?
fable gentleman, always ready to wait upon cus?
tomers, and he is ably seconded by our worthy
friend, Mr. R. H. Land, formerly of Newberry.

J. T. Gariuner & Co., Warehouse and Commis?
sion Merchants, offer their services to the public
generally, and we take pleasure in recommending
them to the farmers and planters of this section,
as reliable business men.
R. W. Mauer begs to remind his old friends in
Anderson that he has in store a choice selection of
Family Groceries, and will be pleased to receive a
call from them.
The Angusta Hotel is conveniently situated to
the business portion of the city, and is presided
over by a courteous and hospitable gentleman.
See sank
Columbia.?One of the most interest?
ing places for a young housekeeper to visit is the
China Store of our friend, Copt. W. B. Stanley.
He has everything needful in the crockery line,
and a superior assortment of imported goods. GiTe
him a call, or send your orders.
Tuos. E. Greco & Co., dealers in crockery,
glassware, &c., arc located in the large and hand?
some building recently erected on Main Street.
They arc clever gentlemen, and are prepared to ac?
commodate the public with all articles in their line.
Besides their legitimate busiaesss; they are en?
gaged in Brokerage, buying and selling stocks,
bonds and money. Our Columbia Bank Note List,

firm.
James G. Gibbes advertises that on or before
the first of November, he will start two setts of
Woolen machinery at the Saluda Factory, and will
manufacture wool into cloth, exchange cloth or pay
cash for wool.
Carying Weapons.?Is it not n little
singular that we hear of so many gatherings of
frccdmcn, armed with guns and pistols, when there
is in existence a General Order to the contrary ?
The tragic occurrence mentioned elsewhere would
never have taken place, if this Order had been
strictly enforced. The practice amang the negroes
of carrying deadly weapons has become greatly in
vogue since Union Leagues bavebeen organized
throughout the country. We trust that the military
authorities will endeavor to abate this reprehensi?
ble practice, both among whites and frcedmen. We
arc satisfied that Col. Smith, commtnidant of this
post, will use every exertion to that end, whenever
informed that there is any infringement of the law.
Special Correspondence of the Intelligencer.
PENCIL NOTES FROM COLUMBIA.
The business season, all hope, is to be a busy one,
but has opened very modestly here. Yesterday
about one hundred bales of the new crop were sold
ou the market at about 16 cents, nud some little
activity in business circles, but it was spasmodic?
"all quiet along tho line" to-day. The present is
certainly an anomalous condition in commerce, as
well as in politics?tho high price of gold, and the
low price of cotton?but the troubled" waters will
soon get their level.
The Court of Common Pleas is now in session,
Judge Moses presiding. Only those cases which
can be adjudicated without ajury have been heard.
A jury, however, has becu empamiellcd in accord?
ance with militarg orders, from the registered tax
pagers. It was found upon exuiuituition, that of
the 2800 negroes registered as voters in this Dis?
tricts, only nineteen had paid any tax ! Comment
is not necessary. One negro only has thus far
been drawn on ajury, aud as he is the first ever
so honored, he deserves to be recorded by name?
Christopher llayuesworth?a very genteel and pop?
ular barber of this city.
The Grand Jury in their presentment to day,
suggested the purchase of more and better land
for the Poor House of the District, and the estab?
lishment of a separate department for frcedmen ;
but the important suggestion in this connection
was, that ample arrangements should be made to
employ the inmates, thus giving to the institution
the advantages of both a Work and Poor House,
with a view to making it defray its own expeuscs,
or else relieve the public from supporting lazy pau?
pers.
\ Tho Democratic victories in Ohio and Pennsyl?
vania gives encouragement to all well-disposed
persons, North nud South, to hope for the ultimate
overthrow of Radicalism. The Radicals, with
less than eight years of power, have nearly de?
stroyed every vestige of Republicanism in this
country, and are now being overtaken by the in?
iquity they nurtured. They kindled the flame that
is to consume them speedily. May the fire purify
them.
The State University resumed exercises on Mon?
day last, about 100 students in attendance, and
tbe number daily increasing. Tbe corps of Pro?
fessors is complete, and the various schools are in
thorough working order.
You will.be furnished with more worthy pane?
gyric from many sources than my hand can pre?
sent upon the lamented poet, Henry Timrod, who
died of consumption on the 7th inst. His harp is
silent here, but still breathes sweet, music in a bet-'
ter world. His life was ono of Christian purity?
hie death the good man's end. j
It is, perhaps, known to most readers that the
magnificent State House, which was commenced
about ten years ago, has remained for the past few
years in an unfinished condition. The immense
granite walls have been without a roof, and were
being greatly damaged, but by recent contract, we
are glad to see the roof is being erected, which
will preserve the building, until more prosperous
times enable the State to complete it. When fin?
ished, if ever, it will be the great adornment of our
"city of chimneys."
The Penitentiary, under'Maj. Lee, is growing
into comely proportions, and now accommodates
over a hundred convicts, and when completed, will
give quarters to about six hundred, if so many
worthies shall deserve its tender- protection. But
it is to be hoped that the moral effect upon those
outside will be such as to remove the necessity to
put any inside. Already it has done some good, as
wc learn from parties in the "interior that one crim?
inal sent from a neighborhood to this reformatory
prevents much evil. XX.
ELECTION BETTJENS.
The returns from the elections held in Ohio,
Pennsylvania and Iowa, on Tuesday of last week,
have been quite meagre. Enough has been re?
ceived, however, to indicate a strong reaction in
the Northern mind, and that Radicalism has been
dealt a heavy blow.
In Pennsylvania, the main contest was for Su?
preme Judge. Suarswood, the Democratic candi?
date, is elected by several thousand majority.
. In Ohio, it is generally conceded that Hayes,
Republican, is elected Governor by a small majority.
The Legislature is Democratic. Last year the Radi?
cals carried Ohio by 40,000. The question of negro
suffrage entered into the contest this year, and
the proposed Constitutional Amendment, conferring
the right of suffrage upon all alike, was rejected
by 50,000 majority.
The returns from Iowa show a Republican ma?
jority of 20,000, although the Democrats have
gained in several localities.
Municipal elections were also held in Indiana
and Connecticut, reeulting in Democratic gains
The Hartford (Conn.) Times, referring to this elec?
tion, says: "This is the first time in thirteen years
that the Democrats have carried a majority of the
towns in this State. We have gained over twenty
towns this fall."
