In the Court of Appeals on Wednesday last, the examination of applicants was held, and tho fol? lowing gentlemen were admitted to practico: Attorneys at Law?W. II. Bellinger, Junius Da ?ris, Wm. P. DeSausnre, W. D. Ellis. George E. Haynsworth, J. J. Huck, John Eershaw, John A. Moroso, H. N. Obear, Sampson Pope, G. H. Sass, E..B. Seabrook, J. G. Simpson, J. M. Skinner, J. S. R. Thompson. Solicitors in Equity?Allen J. Green, Jr., A. G. Magrath, Jr., J. A. Moroso, H. N. Obear, G. H. 8asB, S. R. Todd, Jr. -?????? FISHER & LOWRANCE. We call the attention of our citizens generally, and the farming interest especially, to the adver? tisement of these gentlemen in another column. This old and established firm needs no recommen? dation to the confidence of our. people, and if our farmers will let their wants be known, they will take pleasura in recommending only such machines as are known to be perfeotly reliable and success? ful. When labor is so scarce and unreliable, we think it important that the farmers should avail themselves of such machines as are being usedwath so much success in different portions, and espe? cially in the Western part of our country. -o THE ELECTION. The total vote throughout this State, says the Charleston Courier of Saturday, with still incom? plete returns from six Districts, was reported yes ' terday as 93,824, of which 68,391 -were "for. con? stitution," and 24,933 "against constitution," giving a majority for the constitution of 43,<>48. The total registration of voters up to the 51st of March, which does not include the last revision, was 127,550, of which there were 47,171 whites and 80,379 blacks. Official returns from twenty Districts are pub? lished, showing a majority of 40,000 in favor of tho constitution. Anderson, Pickens, Oconce, Spartanburg, Lan? caster and Korry have-gone Democratic. It is Dr. 0. M. Dotle elected to the Legislature from Oconee. Tuos. A. Rogers is the Senator and Dr. William T. Field the Representative from Pickens. ; --<j> WHERE'S THE SCHOOLMASTER I This question has been propounded in every section of the Union, and we take pleasure in an? nouncing that the gentleman has at lnpt been dis? covered, iu the neighborhood of Hardscrabble. We are permitted to give a specimen of his dic? tion, only omitting names: South Caliner Ander Destrict this is to sertyfy that sed- ?-? will teach ascull in that dis treot acderson So for the turm of eaight monts at tho rates of on dolnr pur mont pur seolar and sed -will teac aingles scul splen rende and re tb mite and will teach good miners and good bc haver and good atenson will bee pade to them afred mon scul. and if this will tak make your mark in thes lines. This is a veritable document, the original of which is in our possession. Much of its beauty is lost in consequence of our not being able to give bbt>-penmanship. Although it is proposed to tench a frecdman's school, the schoolmaster is a white nan. -o DEMOCBATIC CLUBS. We are gratified to learn that several Democratic dubs have been recently organized in different sections of the District, and that much enthusiasm prevails itt> regard to their formation. The pro? ceedings at Belton are published' to-day, and also the second meeting of the Greenwood club, at which Beveral more negroes un:tcd> Pendlefcon and other localities are moving; and we presume will report their action whenever properly organ? ized. The influence of organization has already im? proved the condition of affairs throughout the State, and must yet accomplish a great work in re? deeming the people from the incubus of inactivity, and dissipating l he evil effects of Radicalism among the unfortunate- and deluded negroes. Prompt and energetiameasures will bring about thorough reaction, even- among the oath-bound Leaguers. Let us "carry the war into Africa," and make these graceless scamps, who are seeking to ride into power on the shoulders of the ignorant negro, hide themselves from the indignation of all law-abiding and well-disposed citizens. The reign of such men can last only for a brief season, if we are but vigilant, active and persevering. BLUE RIDGE RAILR0A9. We publish elsewhere the report of a spirited meeting at Franklin, Macon county, N. C. We learn that the feeling there and in adjoining coun? ties is enthusiastic in favor of the Road, and that large and liberal subscriptions of land will be promptly made. At this meeting a large amount was immediately subscribed, aud committees ap? pointed to canvass the county thoroughly. To the people of Rabun, Franklin, Cherokee and Jackson counties, we would say that much de? pends upon their prompt and efficient action. If they subscribo at once the 300,000 acres required, the effect on the people of this State will result in the enterprise being secured, and the work re? sumed. The energetic efforts of Gen. J. W. Harrison, President of the Blue Ridge Road, deserv* encour? agement. Under adverse circumstances, with the country impoverished and the people despondent, he has set on foot this scheme of subscribing land for the purpose of raising funds to complete the Road, and has given close attention to the further? ance of the object in view. We lea.ru that the people of Rabun county were to hold a similar meeting to that of Franklin on Mondny List, and that Gen. Haejjisoh would bo present to urge the propoMtil ooharao. THE MEETING TO NOMINATE CANDIDATES FOE THE DISTRICT OFFICES, According to previous announcement, a mass meeting of the conservative citizens of Anderson District was held in the Court Houbo on Monday last, for the purpose of selecting candidates for the several District offices. The meeting was largely attended, evory beat company in the Dis? trict being represented. The committee appointed to select candidates from the various nominees consisted of thirty-four gentlemen, representing every section of the District, and embracing per? sons of intelligence and influence in their respec? tive communities, supposed to be conversant with the wishes of the people generally. The choice of this committee was unanimously confirmed by the meeting, and the candidates go before the people with the unqualified approbation of the persons there assembled. The influence of those present will undoubtedly be accorded to tho nominees, and will have mnch weight in preventing any di? vision among the conservative voters. It would be extremely unfortunate and disastrous to the party, if dissensions 3hould arise, and we would earnestly implore the co-operation of every man having the welfare of the District at haart to sacri? fice private ambition or personal prejudice, if any such exists, for the sake of unity and harmony.? As the presiding officer of the meeting, Dr. Brotles, remarked in his opening address, "We must win, because we cannot afford to lose." We would respectfully suggest that meetings be held in every neighborhood, for the purpose of ratifying, the nominations made, that we may pre? sent a bold and united front. We will take pleas? ure in publishing the proceedings of any such meetings whenever forwarded. As a matter of interest to the people, we would state that tho office of Tax Collector is not provi? ded for in the constitution, and it is presumed that the Legislature must make some provision respect? ing that office before an election will be held.? Hence it was not doemed advisable that any nomi? nation should be made at present. The subject was fully discussed, as we understand, by the nom? inating committee, and afterwards in the meet i.ng, and the conclusion reached as above indicated. tttr SIGHT OF SUFFRAGE UNDER THE NEW CONSTITUTION.. We publish to-day an article from tho Greenville Enterprise on this subject, assuming the position that the new Constitution of this State does not disfranchise any one, except for crime.. The vari? ous sections of the constitution and the proposed amendment to the constitution of the United States are quoted to sustain this position, and we think 'Our excellent cotemporary fully demonstrates the correctness of the proposition, that no-one is pro? hibited the right of suffrage by reason, of having participated in the late war. Under the Recon? struction Acts, it will be remembered, disfranchise ment ex ends to all persons who, prior to tho- war, held office requiring an oath to support the Con? stitution-of the United States and afterwards "en? gaged in the rebellion." Doth acts were requisite to deprive any one of the elective franchise.? Either one was not sufficient, but under the laws of the several Southern States, almost every officer was required to subscribe the oath aforesaid, and hence the extensive disfranchisemcnt. It may be remarked, in this connection, that tho practice in the Northern States- was different, and only the most important officers were required to swear alle? giance to the constitution of the United States. At least, such information is based upon high author? ity, and that the majority in Congress never con? templated the disfranchisement of every man hold? ing an insignificant office before the war. Be this as it may, the result has prevented many intelli? gent citizens from voting in the recent elections, and has virtually given the power in some localities to ignorant and vicious men. If this state of things is not perpetuated under the new constitntian, and the majority in Congress will acquiesce in its pro? visions, whereby none are disfranchised, then there is a gleam of hope even under the new condition of things. Many of our most respected and able citizens have felt unauthorized to engage in poli? tics while under tho ban of political proscription. Their hands may now be unfettered, and with their less experienced brethren, they can enter upon the work of redeeming even South Carolina from the thraldom of ignorance and misrule. -,-0 MAJ. THOSXAS B. LEE The Columbia Phoenix publishes the following order, giving the result of the deliberations of the Military Commission, recently convened in that city, for the purpose of inquiring into charges of cruelty against Maj. Lee, Superintendent of the Penitentiary : Hkadq's. 2n. Military Dist., Charleston, S. C, April II, 1868. 2. B. Lee, Esq., Superintendent South Carolina Penitentiary, Columbia. Sir : I am iustructed by tho Major-Gcneral Commanding to inform you that the Special Com? mission, appointed by Special Orders No. 60, ! [Par. IV.,] of March 12, 18G8, to examine into, and report upon, the charges of cruel and harsh treatment of convicts, preferred against Thomas B. Leo, Superintendent of the Penitentiary of South Carolina,, has reported that the charges of cruel and harsh treatment made against him are unfounded, and they regard the administration of Thomas B. Leey as Superintendent of the South Carolina Penitentiary, as humane and efficient. Thi? finding has been approved by the Command? ing General, who directs that no further action be taken upon the petition for your removal. Very respectfully, your obedient servant, LOUTS V. CAZIARC, A, D. C. & A. A. A, G. IMPORTANT TO COUNTRY MERCHANTS. An advertisement of the South Carolina Railroad Company, offering business tickets to travel on their road at twenty-five dollars for one thousand miles, has been published lor some weeks po9t in all the city papers, but rt is feared that the liber? ality and advautagc of the offer have not been fully appreciated. Tsventy-five dollars for one thoasand miles is only two and-a-half centB a mile, instead of six cents the usual charge for way passengers. By the use of this ticket, a merchant living one hundred miles from Charleston, and who is in the habit of going to Charleston, five times a year, at an expense for railroad fare of sixty dollurs, could come iwelve times for the same money. The im? portance of this saving need scarcely be explained to business men familiar with the advantage of a frequent renewal' oC their stock. For the Anderson Intelligencer. A Card. Mb. EiMTon: I have received information that it has been reported I had joined the Union League. It is sufficient for me to say that such a report is false, without ilie slighest foundation in truth._ The man who would propagate such a falsehood to my injury is beneath contempt. I am no politician nor never have been ; a Democrat for the last twenty years, ajid expect to remain one. ELIJAH WEBB.

A masa meeting of the conservativo citizens of Anderson District waa held in the Court House on Monday, 27th inst.,, under the auspices ef the An? derson Democratic dub, for the purpose of nomina? ting candidates for District offices. The President, Dr. 0. It. Broyles, on taking the Chair, made a short address, explaining the object of the meeting, and announced the meeting organ? ized and ready for business. Information being asked as to the number and character of the offices to be filled, it was answered that Sheriff, Clork, Probate Judge, Coroner, and a Board of County Commissioners, wore provided for fin the Constitution. After considerable discussion, it was decided to go into the nomination of suitable candidates for those offices at once; and that a committee of two from each beat company be appointed, to whom all nominations were referred for consideration, with instructions to report tho name of one candidate for each office, as in their judgment best qualified for the respective positions. Whereupon, the President appointed the said Committee, consisting of two persons from each beat company, all the beats being represented. The Committee then retired, and after consulta? tion upon the various nominations presented, re? ported through their chairman, B. F. Crayton, Esq., the following nominations as the selection made by the committee : For Clerk.?John W. Daniels. Sheriff.?Vira. McGukin. Probate Judge.?W. W. Humphreys. Coroner.?A. 0. Norris. Board of Commissioners.?B. F. Crayton, W. S. Pickens and J. W. Norris, jr. Upon motion, these nominations wore placed separately before the meeting; and; were- unani? mously adopted.

Im? mediately after adjournment, an excited crowd gathered around and tho messages were opened amid,"apparently, intense anxiety; showing that the President's actions are still regarded of some moment. The President withdrew tho nomination of Ewing nnd nominated J. H. Scho? field as Secretary of War, vice Stanton to bo re? moved. Nelson spoke all day, and kept the Senators and galleries well seated and interested throughout? the attention becoming closer as thc effort drew lo a close.

RAILROAD MEETING IN THE MOUNTAINS. Franexjn, N. C., April 22, 1868. Our quiet little Tillage was taken by surprise on Monday last, by the announceuent that there would be an address at the Court House next day, (Tuesday,) by the President of the Blue Ridge Railroad, who would suggest a practicable plan for resuming work on the same at an early day. At the appointed time acd place, a large audience assembled, when, on motion of W. L. Love, Esq., Col. A. T. Davidson was called to the Chair, and J. D. Franks requested to act as Secretary. The Chairman, in a few appropriate remarks, explained the object of the meeting, and introduced Genoral Harrison to the assemblage, who gave us in brief the history of the Road, its present condition, a statement of its finances, and his plans and pros? pects for an early resumption- of work, showing clearly that, by co-operation, the Road can be built at an early day, and concluding with an earnest and well-spoken appeal to the people of Macon county to embark in the enterprise. The Presi? dent of the Road was followed in advocacy of his plan or propositions, by Gen. R. M. Henry, W. L. Love, Esq.., and ethers. Much interest was evin? ced by the audience in behalf of the Road, and the following resolutions being offered, were, on motion, unanimously adopted : Resolved, That we have heard with great pleas? ure that the prospects for resuming the work on the Blue Ridge Railroad are brightening, and that this important enterprise, so vital to the interest of the citizens of the County, has not been aban? doned, but will be pushed forward to completion. Resolved, That we, as citizens of Macon County, do heartily approve of the plan-for increasing the capital stock of said Company by donations arid subscriptions of land, and earnestly recommend all landholders-along the line to promptly and lib? erally respond, to the call of the President and Di? rectors. Resolved, That we respectfully request the Coun? ty authorities to consider the propriety of sub? scribing to the capital stock of the Company a portion, or all, of the remaining public domain of this County, on fair and reasonable terms, to be agreed on by the County authorities and the Com? pany. Resolved, That a Committee of two from each precinct be appointed by the Chairman to solicit subscriptions from the landholders along the line. On motion, the thanks of the meeting were ten? dered Gen. Harrison for his lucid and forcible ad? dress, and the interest he manifested in behalf of our Railroad. On motion of W. H. Higslan, Esq., it was or? dered that the proceedings of this meeting be for? warded to the Anderson Intelligencer and Keowee Courier for publication, with a request that all oth? er papers friendly to the Blue Ridge Railroad be requested to copy. On motion, the meeting adjourned tine die. A. T. DAVIDSON, Chm'n. J. D. Franks, Sec. -o For (he Anderson Intelligencer. 6LOVEB Mr..Editor: It is well known to you and to many of your readers, no doubt, that the culture of clover in this country has heretofore been con? sidered unprofitable?it having been unsuccessfully attempted by many of our best fanners?and who have settled* down upon the opinion that, as the soil here is not naturally adapted to its growth, that it would be a waste of time and money to make repeated efforts. But to such as doubt,, and to those who would be delighted to see it growing here in all the luxuriance and beauty which at? tends ila growth in Virginia, Kentucky and Ten? nessee, I would refer them to the farm of our most estimable fellow-citizen, Maj. T. H. M'cCann. in the northern part of this District?which has two fields upon it?the larger of which is now a most profitable pasture, indeed?I lie smaller not being pastured at this time?would equal in denseness and beauty the finest clover field in either of the above named States. It will produce two harvests this year?the first in about four weeks. The success of this experiment is due to the only son of the Major, Julius, a fine practical farmer, who returned from the war quite a young man. and determined to adorn and make more profitable that home and farm which had been the pride of his fothcr to watch over and cultivate for many years?he obtained charge of it?and his success in growing clover, in a section where it had been . attempted often with failure, is only a part of the fruits of his labor and skill in agriculture. It would be of interest, no doubt, Iomany of our farmers to-know how this success has been attain? ed. But as knowledge is most highly prized when it costs us something, it would probably be best to refer those who desire to learn to those who- are belter able to teach. The process however is-sim? ple, and the profits by far exceed the cost. This young man would be pleased, at any time, to give the results of his experiments in the culture of this most valuable forage plant, fey letter, if ad addresscd at Equality. Old farmers, stir up, or the boys will beat you. QUONDAM HABITATOR. Anderson District, April, 18G8. --o For the Anderson Intelligencer. Greenwood, S. C, April 20, 18C8.
