E. B. MCRRfVY, Editor. THURSDAY MOKXING, JULY 24, 1870. Hon. Henry Hartzog, one of the most practical and influential of the represen? tatives from Barnwell County, died at his residence, two miles from Bamberg, on last Saturday morning, after an illness of two days. Mr. Hartzog wa3 a most excellent gentleman, and his death will be regretted wherever he was known: Since our last issue about fifty new ? cases of yellow fever have been reported in Memphis, and tho disease is now ad? mitted to have become epidemic there. The citizens are flocking from the place in vast numbers, and the prospect is very gloomy for its fatnre. Death stares those who remain in the face, while ut ter financial ruin is ahead for a large portion of those who flee. There is from present appearance nothing but gloom and depopulation ahead of this once fair and prosperous metropolis. The Gainesville Eagle very pertinently pr opounds the question: "Can a man with money and friends be hung in Georgia?" Our contemporary answers this in the negative, and we fear the samo answer would he correct if the ter? ritory was extended to embrace this whole country. It is becoming frightful to see how crime can be committed with immunity by those who are willibg to spend a little money in securing an ac? quittal. Scarcely a day passes that we do not meet with instances of fearful murders in different parts of the United States, and yet hangings are*very rare occurrences. It is time for the officers of the law, from Judges down, to do their duty. Juries should convict where 'guilt is proven, and then a certain hang? ing should follow the verdict. tm -!-? Judge David C. Humphreys, of the Supreme Court of the District of Co? lumbia, died at his residence in Fairfax County, Virginia, on Saturday, the 12th inst He was the Judge who ruled in the Patterson cose that a United States Senator was free from arrest during the session of Congress upon charges of bribery and corruption. This decision was purely partisan, and the memory of ? the departed Judge will pass to oblivion beneath the cloud of contempt which he raised for himself throughout the whole country. It is not thought that Mr. Hayes, with all of his acquaintance with the corrupt politicians of the day, will be able to nominate a worse man as his successor, and if he does Congress will most certainly not confirm him. A dispatch to the News and Courier, of the 17th instant, says that important changes are to be made in the Greenville and Columbia Railroad very soon, and, upon inquiry, we hear that the change will consist in the appointment of a new Superintendent to take the place of Col. Dodamead, who has resigned and leaves the road the first of August We hope this report is incorrect, for Col. Dodamead has proven, in every respect, eminently qualified for the post he has held for the past five or six years, and we would dis? like to see him retire. We may, how? ever, res* assured that a good man will be substituted in his place if he should retire, for General Connor will have the selection of the new Superintendent. Whether any other changes are to be made, report does not answer. A telegram from Albany, New York, on last Saturday, says: "An explosion took place on the "steamer Drew last night while on the way from New York, to this city. Several cans of powder bad been placed in the state-room, and a fuse attached to each. The state-room was' shattered, and the wood work in the vicinity of the explosion was badly dam? aged, but fortunately no person was in? jured. The lights were all extinguished and there was the wildest excitement for a few moments. A man who gave his name as Henry Evans was arrested on j board this morning on suspicion of being the person who caused the explosion." It really does look like all of the law? lessness of the country does not reside South of Masou and Dixon's line. The Times or Tribune either might preach a sermon over this attempt to destroy sev? eral hundred persons, simply for the fun of an explosion, which would be as in? teresting and powerful as any of their discourses on the "bloody shirt" horrors of the South. The only trouble, we [ presume, is that the crimes committed in their midst are frequently so heinous that it would be impossible to do the subject justice, and therefore they do not under? take the hopeless task, but ply their lec? tures to the South over cases which they feel equal to the task of properly com? menting upon. The Washington Post shows how much it knows of the agricultural problem in the following paragraph, which it offers in the; way of a consolatory prophecy : It should reconcile the average reader to tho intense heat which we are now enduring to reflect that, without it there could be no corn. A hot Summer means an abundant corn crop, and plenty of that cereal will give the country cheap whisky. This should be satisfying to the natural man. Our contemporary should remember that heat is only one of the essen? tials for a good crop year, and that a sufficient quantity of moisture is equally necessary. Therefore, as there have been very long and widespread droughts throughout the corn-growing section, it is likely to result in a short crop, and th'j fact that heat is one of the elements r>[ production, does not make us rejoice at its presence when the other necessary elements arc absent. Our contemporary had as well go to a hungry man who has plenty of fire but no dough, and con? gratulate him upon the fine bread he will have. Heat is one of the necessary ele? ments in making good bread, but it does not amount to mnch without the dough to bake: so it is that heat will not make much corn without it is accompanied by a good amount of moisture. ? A telegram was received last night from Hon. J. C. Robertson, brother of ex-Senator Robertson, of South Carolina, dated Chicago, stating that son of the ex senator, named T. S. Robertson, was shot. The dispatch contained nothing more definite than this. Mr. Robertson, who is at the White Sulphur Springs, was in? formed by .telegraph of the news.? . Washington Post Juhj 17th. The Southern vote in the National Re? publican Nominating Convention is still a source of discord among the stalwarts. This vote is the balance of power iu the party, and, if admitted into the Conven? tion, will control the nomination. There is a proposition to refuse admission to the Southern delegations, and this pro? gramme is favored by many prominent men in the parly, but is opposed by the leaders who.expect to utilize this vote to assist in their nomination. Blaine ob? tained the bulk of the Southern vote in 1876, and calculates that he will be able to hold it in 18S0. John Sherman thinks that he will be able to carry the South? ern vote in the Convention of 1S80, by giving his Treasury appointments to the most disreputable elements of the South? ern Republican party. The friends of Grant are Of the opinion that he will be able to carry the Southern delegations, because the negroes look upon him as the embodiment of the party which set them free. Thus the elements of the national1 Republican party are not altogether har? monious. The party in favor of admit? ting the Southern delegations, in our opinion, will prove strongest, nnd after the nomination is made the members of the party in the North and West will be very much disgusted to see that the nom? ination has been dictated by the repre? sentatives of the ignorant and corrupt portion of the party, nnd that too the portion which will not give a single vote in the electoral college. The Radicals have been making a great deal of noise against the solid South, and well may they give expression to their alarm. The soli&South presents the handwriting upon the wall to Republicanism. It announces the death of the party of hate and usurp? ation. Henceforth the Democracy will ? be gainers by the solid South. It will gain votes on the positive side of the problem, and on the negative side will injure the Republicans by producing dis? affection within their ranks. A special dispatch to the New York Sun from Washington, under date of July 18, makes the following statement, which interests the people of South Car? olina, for we have n? doubt that there is some foundation for the information given: There is to be a sweeping change in the Federal officers in South Carolina. This change will soon be announced. Certain South Carolina Republicans have been in this city within the last few days, representing that South Carolina could be carried for the Republicans in 1880 in case the right kind of Federal officehold? ers are placed in authority. Those now in place are men who are timid and luke? warm in their Republicanism, and have not the requisite backbone to stand up against the tissue-ballot frauds and in? timidating processes of the chivalry. What is needed, these Republicans say, is a class of men brave enough to enforce the national election in the face of death, intimidation and personal insult It is claimed that the present Federal office? holders in that State are either overawed by the Democrats who are now in power, or else have formed affiliations with them that destroy their party usefulness. There is no doubt that the Republican leaders have been seriously contemplat? ing a movement for the resuscitation of the party in this State, but the above an? nouncement is no doubt premature, for if attempted now it will fail. The new I officers appointed to carry out the pro? gramme would be rejected by the Demo? cratic Senate, which would restore the present incumbents. The administration will most probably not begin this change until after the adjournment of the next aessioiurf Congress, when it could easily and effectively be carried out, so far as the changes would go. This contingency will in all probability be avoided by a long session of Congress. This is our first consolation. The next is that, if it should take place, we would still be able completely to demolish the remnant of Republicanism in South Carolina. Chastine Cox, the colored man who killed Mrs. Hull in New York recently, has already been tried, convicted of mur? der, and sentenced tobe hung on the 29th day of August next. He is a negro, and therefore the New Yorkers do not hesi? tate to have a hanging in his case. He richly deserves it, but then the point we want to make is, that the Northern peo? ple do not mind enforcing the law when it is only necessary to hang a negro in order to do so, but in the coses of white murderers they seem to be more scrupu? lous, or at least hangings have about "played out" there in the cases of rich murderers. We would not point out the peculiarities of this case except for the fact that the New York Radical papers place no limit to the lies and abuse they heap upon the South, in consequence of which we occasionally like to give our contemporaries of that city a likeness of the way they appear to outsiders in the administration of justice. If they will attend to their own section and let ouis alone, they will have a very good hand full of work. In sentencing the pris? oner Judge Cowing, amid the most pro? found silence, said: Chastine Cox, I would fain believe that your heart goes not with the laugh depicted upon your countenance during the progress of this trial; that your con? duct has in no way indicated your right reeling. The jury has been of your own selection, and they have carefully con? sidered your case, the result of which is that they find you guilty of a horrible offence which will inflict upon you a most ignominious death. I believe that' you have had a fair and impartial trial. Let me urge upon you not to rest your hopes of escape from the penalty of death byflfrust in any of the devices of the law, Tut let your time bo spent in preparing for that momentous change which must inevitably come as the result of this trial. You have broken more than one law?you have committed bur? glary, you have committed grand larce? ny aud you have committed murder, and you are now to pay the penalty of these crimes. The sentence of the Court is that you be taken from this place to the prison from whence you came, and there, on the 29th of August, between the houra of 9 a. m. and 4 p. m., be taken to the prison yard, and there be hanged by the neck until you are dead, and may God have mercy upon your soul. The jury was out sixty-seven minutes, which was thought to be a long time. In explanation of this one of the jury said to a reporter of the Herald that two of the jurymen were at the first disposed to bring in a verdict of murder in the second degree, but after a general con? versation which the jury had as to the effect of-the evidence, they voluntarily joined their colleagues in returning a verdict of murder in the first degree.

Charleston News aiid Courier: On Wednesday morning, at 9 o'clock, Mr. J. H. Shaw, barkeeper for M. D. Nordmeyer, was sitting in the bar, 227 East Bay, north of Market street, and was startled by an explosion in a room in the rear occupied by himself and Mr. Nordmeyer as a sleep? ing apartment. He hurried back, and found Mr. Nordmeyer lying on his bed on his back, in his underclothes, with his head resting On the pillow. His left hand lay at his side grasping a small looking glass, while his right was partly over his breast, still holding a silver-mounted I seven-barreled revolver. A small hole in his right temple, about on a line with the eye, from which the blond poured profusely, told of the tragedy that had I just been enacted. Mr. Nordmeyer was quite dead, never breathing nor giving the least symptom of animation in re? sponse to the appeals of Mr. Shaw, who could hardly realize that his friend was really no more. His eyes were closed and iiis face peaceful and quiet in its ex? pression. He had risen at about his usual hour and sent Mr. Shaw to market, nothing peculiar being noticed in his conduct or conversation. After return? ing to his room he had apparently un? dressed and bathed, shaved and put on fresh undergarments, only omitting his collar and cravat. The position of the body showed that he had probably taken fhe pistol and looking-glass, arranged himself on the bed, sat up and deliberate? ly shot himself, holding the weapon a short distance from his head and using the mirror to direct his aim. The ball, a small one, had ranged somewhat back? wards and buried itself in the interior of his skull. Around the wound were a few stains of powder. Death must have been instantaneous. Mr. Nordmeyer had suf? fered for a long time from a painful and almost incurable disease, and had been frequently heard to remark that he would bloiv his brains out and end his tortures. How a Thief Was Killed by a Constable.?Fork of UdUto, July 15.? The wonted serenity of the Fork was a little disturbed on Friday last by reports current that Cudjoe Huggins, colored, who lived on Mr. A. S. Jennings's plan? tation, was shot and instantly killed by Constable William Evans, white. The facts as established by tho evi? dence at the coroner's inquest are about as follows: Mr. John Ilutton, a white citizen, who lives in pretty close proximity to Hug gins, some time ago had removed from or near his premises a plough and plough stock. With an eye ever on the alert lor the stolen property, he finally traced it to Huggins. He at once instituted pro? ceedings for the recovery of his property and the arrest of the guilty parties. On last Friday about 10 o'clock a. in., Con? stable Evans accompanied by Mr. Hutto and Mr. Wash Kettrell, the manufactur? er of the plough, as identifiers, repaired on horseback to tho hut of Scipio and Cudjoe Huggins. The two men were found in the field near the house at work. Mr. Evans stated the object of this visit and the charge against them, when Cud [ joe Huggins became highly incensed, and, abusing Mr. Hutto in obscene and harsh terms, made for him and endeavored to draw him from his saddle. Mr. Hutto drew his revolver, but, thinking discre? tion the better part of valor, returned it to its case. At this stage of the difficul? ty Mr. Evans (constable) commanded the peace, but Huggins ignored the com? mand altogether. Air. Evans then dis? mounted from his horse, and approaching Huggins in the rear, touched nun on the shoulder, saying: "I arrest you in the name of the State." Huggins then, by a knock with the left hand, forced .Mr. Ev? ans from him, and relinquishing his grasp upon Mr. Hutto, faced about and con? fronted Mr. Evans. Just as he faced Mr. Evans discharged his pistol, the ball en? tering the breast just below the left nip? ple, passed through the heart and lodged in or near the vertebral column, produc? ing instant death. Scipio Huggins has since been lodged iu the county jail, where I suppose he will remain until court, and the take his abode in the State Penitentiary, where he has a son serving out au unexpircd term for petty or grand lerceuy. J I Recent Chniurcs In Fiirmnn University. Geeenvii.u-:, July IS. An important meeting of the trustees of Furman University has just been held in Columbia, Iho decisions Of which will be of especial interest to many of your rendaft: ... It is Known throughout the State that owing to the great difficulty of collecting the endowment subscribed within the last five or sis years, or even the interest on the bonds given for current expenses, the Faculty of the University resigned their several chairs at the close of the hi't ses? sion to enable the trustees lo effect, if possible, a more substantial organization. At the annual meeting of the trustees in Greenville, during the recent Commence? ment week, the "situation " was thorough? ly discussed, but only initiative steps could be taken. The board, after holding many anxious sessions, adjourned to meet again in Columbia, ou the 10th instant. The members in attendance were Messrs. G. R. Wells, J. C. Smith, \V. C. Lindsay, J. A: W. Thomas; J. Stout, Wm. Thayer, T. F. Smith and J. A. Chx.mbliss. Other gentlemen who could not be present gave very important counsel in writing. It is gratifying to be able to state that the measures approved were adopted with entire unanimity, and afford a prospect of continued, perhaps of enlarged, use? fulness for this venerable institution. The nest session will open at the usual time, the 15th of September. The facul? ty will consist of three professors and two tutors. The Rev. Dr. <f. C. Furman *as elected to the chair of English, including metaphysics and belle lettres; Prof. C. H. Judson to the chair of Mathematics and general physics, and Prof. D. Town send Smith to the chair of Ancient Lan? guages. The tutors are to be nominated by the faculty and appointed by the ex? ecutive board of the trustees. There will not be a preparatory department; bnt in connection with each school of the Uni? versity a course of study will be provided adapted to the wants of those students who may not be sufficiently advanced to take up strictly collegiate studies. Thus the studies of the school of mathematics may begin with higher arithmetic and elementary algebra T the school of Eng? lish with English grammar, history, etc.; the school of languagues with the Latin or Greek grammar. Each professor will have esclusive control of his own school, and conduct its studies with tho assist? ance of one or both of the tutors. The completion of tho course in any school will be rewarded with a diploma and the degree cf graduate in that school; Free tuition will still be offered to all who come, not in the manner or sense of a charity, but simply as a return for the endowment given to the University by the friends of higher education in the State. This endowment has been given, although so little of it has yet been actu? ally delivered. It was thought by the trustees hot long ago that it would be necesary to ask of the obligators the linguishment of the obligation on Se part of the University to furnish free tui? tion, because the collection of interest and principal on the bonds was too slow to meet current expenses, But it xraa finally decided to go on without a change in this respect, in the hope that all who have given bonds and who are yet in ar? rears will now more than ever feel the importance of paying up as rapidly as possible. Surely no man who can by any honor? able means obtain the money to pay even a small part of his indebtedness to the University will neglect longer to do so, when he sees the determination of the trustees of the noble faculty to fulfil at whatever sacrifice the contract by which free tuition was pledged. This contract on the part of each obligator was certain? ly not less binding than on the part of the University trustees. What then? Will any obligator say that the trustees were deceived when they accepted hit bond a? good and reliable? Or will he not rather prove that they did well to trust him, by immediate payment of some .portion of his debt? The number of students next session will doubless be increased by the new or? ganization of schools in the University, and especially by the opportunity now afforded for those to enter who are not prepared to begin the regular collegiate course. Also, it is expected that an ar? rangement will be made to furnish any number of students with excellent board at a cost not exceeding ten dollars amonth. With an able, experienced faculty a com? plete course of study, board at ten dol? lars, and tuition free, what youug man in the State cannot obtain an education that will fit him to make the most of himself in life? Let the halls of this grand old seat of learning bo crowded nest fall; but, oh, for sweet pity's sake, let the bonds be paid that the devoted teachers may not suffer.? Cor. of the Charleston News and Courier. Attempted Murder in Greenville. A most brutal attempt was made on night before bust by some unknown vil? lain to take the life of our esteemed young townsman, John M. Timmons, step-sou of Dr. J. w. Norwood. The report of the cowardly outrage which circulated yesterday with the "wind, caused much excitement, and eager inquiry was made on every hand for the particulars of the affair, and after the welfare of the woun? ded man. Seeking the most reliable source of in? formation to gather the facts of the case, we sought Dr. Norwood, and from him we gathered the following particulars: Mr. rimmons is a member of the Greenville Guards, and was iu line with the Compa? ny to meet and receive the Sumter Guards from Charleston on day before yesterday afternoon. After the reception, and after the Companies had dispersed, Mr. Tim? mons went home about 11 o'clock, to pre? pare for a trip to the mountains yesterday, spending some lime in packing his bud? get, and making necessary preparations for the trip. About 1 o'clock he retired to bed in his room on tho sccoud floor. He had been in bed but a few minutes when he heard the tin roof crack ou the up stairs portico when he took the pains to see what it meant, and seeing nothing he retired, leaving the lamp burning. The cracking on the tin roof was again indis? tinctly heard, but this time Mr. Tim? mons paid no attention lo it, and was soon fast asleep. From this time Mr. Timmons has no clear recollection of what happened. At near 2 o'clock Dr. and Mrs. Norwood were aroused by Mr. Timmons' appearance down stairs call? ing "Father, Father, come here." Dr. Norwood sprang from his bed to find young Timmons laboring under consider? able mental excitement, almost insensi? ble, with a great gash in the right side of his neck and his right arm paralyz? ed. During the excitement that en? sued the would-be murderer made his escape down the back steps and through an open window. Mr. Timmons was taken into his mother's bed room and medical aid sum? moned. The servants were hastened up stairs to Mr. Timmons' room where Maxcy Timmons, a younger brother, and I3arrett Rowland also slept. On Mr. Timmons' bed was found an axe, with which the almost fatal blow was struck. Mr. Timmons, who was more or less rational yesterday, has vague recol? lections of a struggle with some one in the room, :>ut nothing is clear to his mind. The most plausable theory is, that the assassin was secreted, probably, outside of the baluster of the portico, j and awaited his opportunity to destroy the life of his victim at one fell blow, in which he failed, and failing in the first attempt, commotion ensued, and in his precarious situation, made a hasty es? cape. Mr. Timmons had money about his person, which was afterwards found concealed inside the bosom of his shirt. The object of the thief was doubtless robbery, and to make sure of his game, 1 thought with one stroke to accomplish his purposo noiselessly. Near the win-1 clow where the villain is supposed to have made hin escape' fresh tracks were seen, but as yet no clue to the perpetrator of the foul deed has been found. Mr. Timmons' condition last night was improved, and his wound is not consider? ed dangerous.?Greenville News July 16th, irairficld News find Herald: The Ce? dar Creek section was visited with a ter? rific thunder-storm on the 13th, but not much damage was done.

CLAIR BROWN, wife of Ihe late Mr. Daniel llrown, one of Audeison's most honored and use? ful citizens. Oft In Ihe dawn of life's morning the Master ?summons His ?ervnnts from earth to Paradise; betimes they fall asleep in tlic< beat and strife of the noontide; rarely is it permitted them to linger Mil the peace and. quiet of the closing day. And when we erg called upon to mourn the departure of one who !>?> almost reached the allotted span by a lifo "hid in Christ with God." heedless, and vain is the clfort to eulogize. .Sued a Hie I? its own en? comium and exemplar. The object of titlesVeteh is rather to present a sainted character for emula? tion to others who may be toiling the weary ascent hsavenward. .AJrcadv "her praise is in all the Churches," her name "written in the Limb's book 3f /ife;" she lias passed triumphantly through the dark valley, and now enjoys the rent that lemaln cth for the ncoplc rf (.'od. Having b>;en born in the faith of the Protcstanf Episcopal Church, at the early age of fifteen year* she gave herself to Christ, renewing then her baptismal rowi in the holy rite of continuation. And thus her life was one of continued growth in grace, and to its close she remained devoted to her Church and work In the Heavenly Master's vineyard. It was princi? pally through the influence and earnest endeavors of Mrs. Brown that Grace Church was built In 1800, from which time she was the controlling I spirit of the I'ariih; nnd so long ns strength per? mitted, she was never found absent from her ac | custduicd sett In the Church she loved so well du? ring its holy flnd bertutiful services. And such consistent, dsvoted attendance upon Divine wor? ship was not the least among those aired, gentle Inllueuces and examples which she exercised npou all with whom she was thrown. Her lifo was char? acterized by the fruit of the Spirit, ' love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance," aud ber's was that "purn religion and undented, to visit the fatherless aud widows In tbelr nlltlctlen, and to keep himself un? spoiled from the world." Intellectual, rcllned, sympathetic, porseislnp In an eminent degree true benevolence, tier's was a nature quick to respond to tho wants of her follow creatures, and ber un? ostentatious charities will long be remembered by many a recipient, who will only live to miss her, and mourn their loss. Truly, her life has been a "pattern of good works." and may her mantle fall upon sonic one at tboee. who knew and loved her well, and who would Wish to emulate her noble example. When at length ill health caluc upon her, with increasing feebleness, the last few years of tier lift she was immersed within her own home, during which time she was often an intense sutlercr. i Jut as the hand of affliction pressed heaviest, her Christian foititudc and resignation beamed brightest. Who could have witnessed her long, weary months of patient suffering, oniy waiting for the final summons; or listened to her trembling, subdued tones while she gave hercoun sci and blessings to the loved ones who ministered so faithfully and untiriegly to her every temporal want; or heard the whisperings of a voice already attuned to h melotly not of this earth, blessing and praising Jehovah for His manifold mercies, despite tho acute affliction He had sent upon her, without fediug that the heroic ages of Faith navt not wholly past, and that wc yet have saints among Us "cf whom the world is not worthy?" Hut at last the summons came for her to come up higher, and as she lived, peacefully and calmly, so she passed from death to life eternal! And alter the spirit had takea its disembodied flight, an ex? pression of inexpressible serenity impressed Itself upon her placid face and lips, and liugered there, speaking more eloquently than any words the emotions of the soul released from its fetters and entering the realms of the blest. Yes, she is gone! well beloved Mother, Sister and Friend. Uone, nnd yet with us; freed from the painful bondage of the flesh, yet abides with us in memory and love. The goad never die. She leaves us the rich legacy of a life of good works, and her spotless character will bu the earnest of our endeavors to imitate aid attain. In contem? plating such a gentle, self-sacrificing, mi tiering life, Low sweetly do those words fall upon our ears from the Apocalyptic vision: "I heard a voice from heaven, saying unto me, Write from henceforth blessed are the dead who die in the Lord: even so, faith the Spirit, for they rest from their labors and tlmir works do follow them." Aud iu the language of that sublime .Burial Service which consigned her to the earth, well may wc give hearty thanks to Almighty God for the good example of our de? parted friend, In common with "all those Thy ser? vants, who, having finished their course iu faith, now rest from their labors."
