amount of trading carried on.

Th<3 Baptist Sunday School at this place
will reorganize next Sunday.Uncle Billy
Palmer, who is perhaps the oldest citizen in
the Fork, fell from the door of his dwelling
out into the yard a few days ago and was
seriocsly injured thereby.Tho new Luth?
eran Church here, Double Springs, was ded?
icated on last Sunday by the Rev. J. P.
Smeltzer, D. D., of Walhalla. This is the
only church of that persuasion in Anderson
County.On the night of the 19th ull.,
Aaron Mattison, a colored man living on
Maj. A. R. Broyles' place, near here, while
under the influence of an epileptic fit, fell
into his fire and was so badly burned bet?re
help cauld reach him that he died in a few
days. Mattison came here from Belton last
fall.A week or two ago Thomas Coff, a
white man living near Fair Play, was ar?
rested and committed in Walhalla jail on
the charge of trafficing in illicit whiskey.
He managed to escape, however, and had
not been re-captured at last accounts.Tho
large and handsome residence of Mr. J. A.
Gaines, in this place, was narrowly saved
from destruction by fire on the 28th ult.
The flames, which were timely discovered
and suppressed, originated from the caro
lessnessof a servant girl who had been iron?
ing in one of the apartments. If tho fire
had gotton under headway the dwelling,
store and other buildings adjacent would
have been destroyed. W. A. D.
Fiu3 k ^Leslie's PorrLAB Montu.lt for
March is an unusually interesting number
both in its literary and artistic departments.
The opening paper is an elaborate article by
Richard B. Kimball, author of "St. Leger,"
on the "Great Money Marts of the World,"
profusely illustrated and replete with inter?
esting information. "The National and
Typical Dances of the World," traces tho
history of dancing from an early period,
and illustrates the characteristic dances of
the different races. The department of fic?
tion is peculiarly rich. Mr. Benedict's ad?
mirable serial, "Norman Dcsborough'a
Son," is continued, and there are a great
many short stories by Etta W. Pierce, M.
T. Caldor, Annie Thomas, and other popu?
lar wri .er?. There are tales of adventures
of thrilling interest; "Hippopotamus Hunt?
ing" and "My First Lion Hunt" are partic?
ularly notable. There are poems of consid?
erable merit. "The Nut-Brown Maid," is
a fine ballad of the olden time. The mis?
cellaneous department abounds with enter?
taining and instructive reading, embracing
a vast variety of subjects. In every respect
this number of the Popular Monthly is cal?
culated to maintain the well-deserved repu?
tation of this periodical, which for merit,
comprehensiveness and cheapness, is proba?
bly unrivaled. There are 128 quarto pages,
over 100 engravings, and a beautiful colored
frontispiece; the cost of a single number
being only 25 conts, and tin. annual sub?
scription $3, postpaid. Address Frank Les?

Suffering' for a Life Time.
Persons afflicted with rheumatism often
suffer for a life time, their tortures being al?
most without remission. Tho joints and
muscles of such unfortunates are in most
cases shockingly contorted and drawn out
of shape. To afford them even temporary
relief, the ordi.iary remedies often provo
utterly useless. Hostettcr's Stomach Bit?
ters, on the other hand, is avouched by per?
sons who have used it, to be a genuine
source of relief. It keeps the blood cool by
promoting a regular habit of body, and re?
moves from it impurities which, in the
opinion of all rational pathologists, origi?
nate this agonizing complaint and its kin?
dred malady, tho gout. Besides this the
Bitters remedy disorders of the stomach,
liver and nerves, prevent and eradicate in?
termittent and remittent fevers, promote
appetite and sleep, and are highly recom?
mended by physicians as a desirable medi
cinal stimulant and tonic

A TALE OF TWO STATES.
Toller's Report on South Carolina and
Louisiana.
Washington, February 27.
The report of the Teller committee,
made to the Senate to-day, reviews the
testimony of the ninety-one witnesses in
Louisiana and the one hundred and
seven in South Carolina. It states that
the frauds in South Carolina by the use
of tissue ballots extended to every county
in that State but one, and that between
thirty and forty murders were committed
in Louisiana.
The committee, in drawing conclu?
sions, says: There appears to be a wide?
spread determination in these States to
restrict the freedom of speech as to po?
litical questions upon the claim that the
discussion of the relations of labot to
capital, employers to employees, and
other kindred subjects, is calculated to
array the colored people against the
whites, and thus endanger the safety of
the people. This determination is not
authorized by State enactments, but the
Democrats who attend political meetings,
not only of their own party, but also of
the opposition, are in the habit of re?
fusing to allow the speakers to discuss
these questions in their various forms.
Any reference to the condition of the
colored people before the war, and the
causes that led to the war, are condemned
as being of an incendiary character. All
the attacks which have been made on
the colored people have been attempted
to be justified on the ground that they
have made threats against the whites.
However false and destitute of founda?
tion these reports may have been, they
have been made the excuse of the most
unheard of atrocities against these peo?
ple. As this pretended fear of negro in?
surrection is made the excuse for out?
rages on the colored people, it may not
be amiss to say that the Democratic wit?
nesses, when interrogated on that point,
all agreed that the negro was peaceful
and unrovengeful, and that notwithstand?
ing all reports of the uprising of this
class of people to murder and outrage
the whites, there was no instance in
American history within their knowledge
when this had been done, and all admit?
ted that it would require great provoca?
tions to induce the colored people to re?
sort to violence against the whites. No
prosecutions have beeu instituted by the
State of South Carolina against the vio?
lators of her laws, and no efforts were
made to punish the men who have thus
wantonly outraged its citizens, and when
the United States Courts have been re?
sorted to for the purpose of punishing
the outrages on the ballot, the complain?
ant has in very many instances been ar?
rested clearly in violation of law by the
State authorities on charges of perjury,
and committed to jail unless he gave bail.
Citizens are threatened that if they at?
tempt to punish offenders in United
States Court*, the witnesses will be pun?
ished in the State Courts, aud thus the
State not only declines to punish these
criminals, but refuses to allow it to be
done in the United States. The State
government is a white government, no
colored men are represented in it, and so
far no man connected with it has had
the honesty, courage or humanity to at?
tempt to redress the outrages on these
unfortunate men of color. The laws of
South Carolina and Louisiana are un?
doubtedly sufficient for the protection of
all their citizens, but there has been a
lamentable failure to enforce them.
This course must in the end be the de?
struction of the governments of these
States.
The committee say that it was not pos?
sible within the time they had been in
session to investigate the elections held
iu all the Congressional districts in Lou?
isiana and South Carolina, but sufficient
testimony was taken to show that in sev?
eral districts in these States not only the
elaction for Congressmen, but the elec?
tion for State and county officers as well,
were neither fair nor free, and that by
violence and fraud the housst expression
of the will of those entitled to vote was
prevented, and thousands of the citizens
of these States deprived of the elective
franchise. In Louisiana both violence
and fraud were extensively used. In
South Carolina fraud was more largely
relied upon. In both States these agen?
cies, so disreputable in themselves and
so dangerous to the stability of a Repub?
lican form of government, were used not
only against candidates of the Republi?
can party but against Independent Dem?
ocratic candidates, and candidates by
whatever name known who were in op?
position to the regular Democratic can?
didates.
The minority have not yet prepared
their report.
