I'.. I*. MURRAY, Editor. THURSDAY, APRIL 2i, iS?i. TBna?a : OMK YKAIt.?1.00. SIX MONTHS. 7SCi Tivo Dollar? If uot pulil In ndvituc?. THK SITUATION IN WASHINGTON. The dead-lock, which commenced in the United State-) Senato on the -1th of March last, still continues. The latest news fruin Washington indicates that tho Republicans will recede from the position heretofore taken by them, and that the Senate will proceed to consider the busi ness for which the extra session of that hotly was culled. Unlees the Republi cans do recede the Senate will probably remain in extra session until December next, when the regular session will begin. lt is nell understood that tho Democrats, who, under the rules of thc Senate, can prevent tho Republicans from carrying out their contemplated partisan legisla tion, will remain firm, and will insist that executive business, for which the Scnnte was convened, shall bc first attended to. The public sentiment of tho country will Dilatait) them. Should they recede? Certainly not, if they are right, and the questions at issue are of great import ance. It is a matter of no interest and of very little importance to thc people of the Unite?! States aa lo the peraons who shall fill the various minor offices of the Se?ale, whether they bo Democrats or Republicans, and any prolonged delay in determining this question by filibuster ing, if no other question wns involved in it, would be regarded by the country ns captious and meet with universal con dcinimtion. The Republicans insist that the first business of the Senate shall bo the election of thc minor offices, such as Sergeanlat-Arms, Door-Keeper, ?cc, while the Democrats insist that the Sen ate ithall go into executive session nnd act upon the nominations submitted by the President. All the great interests of the country-its executive, judicial, ?nnncial and its relations with foreign countries, depend upon these nomina tions, and common courtesy to tho Presi dent, as well as every sentiment of patriotism, require that they should re ceive the earliest attention of tho Senate, and yet the Republicans refuse to con sider them until they have filled thc minor offices of tho Senate with their own partisans. The Democrats ought and would gratify the Republicans in tili? whim if there was no other question involved in the election of the officers of the Senate than that of tho political affil iation of the persons to'bo elected. The Dem?crata, as well as the country, be lievo that there w-.s a corrupt bargain between Gen. Mahmie, ono of tho Sena tor's from Virginia, and the Republicans, by which Mahmie was to enable them to organizo thc Senate, and they in return to give him the naming of certain officers of tho Senate and to have the control of Federal patronage in Virginia. Al though Mahono ?"as always a Democrat, and elected to the Senato'as a Democrat hy Democrats, he has upon every vote cast voted with the Republicans and given them tho organization of thc Son ate, thereby complying thus far with his part of the bargain, and thc Republicans appeal to the Dem?crata to enable them, hy withdrawing their opposition to going into an election of officers, to comply with their part of tho bargain by placing Mahoue's henchman in office, and thus reward him for bia corruption and treachery. Thia the Democrats refuse to do, preferring to remain in Washington until Decembei . a th er than that tho United States Senate should countenance Bitch glaring corruption and treachery in their own body, and they will be sup ported by thc moral sentiment of tho country. But thia ia not all. .Mahmie has by his corrupt alliance with the Re publicans not only given the organization of thc Senate to them, but proposes through the instrumentality of Federal patronago and the assistance of tho negro voten of Virginia also to give them the State this Full. To do this, it is neces sary that he should have the control of the Federal appointments in tho State, not to reward Republicans foi their ad hesion to tho party, but to buy up cor rupt men in the Democratic party as he was bought up, and then by producing discord in tito party, and uniting tho worst elements in thc party with the negroes, carry the Statu, and the Demo crats are asked to assist in the accom plishment of this base design. No deeper humility could befall the State than the success of Mahono, for it would place tho State in tho hands of ignorant, corrupt and bad men. Virginia, how ever, will be saved this humiliation by the virtue and patriotism of her own people, ns well as tho d?termination of tho Democratic party to resist to tho Inst the consummation of Mahone's dishon orable and fraudulent contract with tho Republicans. ' Tho discord in tho Republican parly, which threatens n split aa soon as an ex ecutive session in held, bi another cause of the dead-lock. A. great pressure has been brought to bear upon the President to induce him to recall some nominations . sent to the Senato, which are obnoxious to Mr. Conkling and the stalwart ele ments of the party, but the President remains firm, mid there is no probability ! that he will do any thing moro than he bas done to conciliate Mr. Conkling. Unices a reconciliation is effected, a split is inevitable, and Mr. Conkling and his allies will have their h'.nds fall in the cont?e*, with the administration and ita friends.. In the meantime the ability of the Republicans to perform their part of tho contract with Mr. Mahone remains problematical. * THK SOLID SOUTH. Th? political future of our country is complicated. . There la opposition to tho South .because it is ??fter', and it is the opinion of some that it would bo best for the solid South to be broken up-that if Gen. Mah?ne and his supporters should succeed in Virginia, it may be advanta geous tn tho eauee of Democracy,' and that we would not loso much hy having i\ few of the Southern States to elect tn {hyriiJcnt candidates, or even Republi cana for their officers and representatives* Ajournai of this State recently published an article in which thc writer neem to consider n change uf parties certain, and adds that when thc change comes men will not hesitate to express their opinions for fear of being condemned by public sentiment. These ?deas appear us to bu daugc'ouH, as welt as fallacious. The Republican administration is oppos ed to the true interests of tho Booth. Their whole eflorl is to secure to thom the perpetual administration of the govern ment. To this end they have encroached upon tlic Constitution as far as was in their power. A division of the Democratic .South is just what they want. .Shall we sacrifice several of our States to the ins.i tiablc Minotaur? Are we lo try it con ciliate tho Republicans by giving up self government? We would not hu ve one section of oui country opposed to anoth er. The interests of the North and South are commun, and it can result in no good for uno section tu put itself in continued opposition to the other. The Demucratic party of the South has never sought to array one section against an other. It has ?ought to obtain a good and economical self-government, and it lias done this. It has thc confidence of our people, and ii ?he government of the class who represent the intelligence, virtue, wealth, and common interests of eur country. Are thc oriticiplcs of tho Democratic party stielt as we should give up? It is true that lhere is lillie diff?r ence between the two greal parties in some respects. Upon some questions there is difference of opinion among the constituents of both parties, such as, financial policies, thc reformation of the tarifl", &c. Yet, tffcre is a great difference between the principles of the Democratic and Republican parties. Il waa with much difficulty and after great cflort that tho Constitution was ever adopted. Why ? Because the peo ple thought it ceded toD much power into the hands of thc general government and endangered their liberties. They .?:Y tho danger of party patronage and cen tralization. The Democrats have alway* opposed centralization. The Republi can party has been as active in it? effurts tu centralization us Alexander Hamilton himself. It has engrossed all thc power and patronage possible in urder lo main tain party supremacy. But what is worse than this, it owes itH present existence to sectional animosity. it is tho avowed enemy of tho South. The recent success of the Republican party was obtained by abusing thc South, not by discussing principles. If it wore argued that it was obtained by discussing principles, wo should believe from the Republican papers thal thu greatewt principio of the party was opposition to the South. We would not advocate the opposition of section tu section, but wc cannot give up tho principles of tho Democratic party. To abandon these principles would be our ruiu. Then why give up tho nome of Democrat, if we do not give up Demo eratic principles. There is nothing sec tional in tho mime of uur party. We cannot alford to disband tho party whoso virtuous and intelligent rule hus brought pence and prosperity tu our country and advanced ila most important interests. * DEATH OF LORD BEACONSFIELD. The death of Lord Beaconsfield, who baa been ill fur some time, occurred in London ut half-past one o'clock on Tues day morning, 19th inst., in his 76th year. He was the son of I""uc Disraeli, the author of "The Curiosities of Literature," etc. Benjamin Disraeli achieved great success in literary as well as political lifo. He waa tho author of several novels of great merit, having commenced his litemry labors before tho age of twenty-one. He was a Jew hy birth, but his political aspirations led him to profess and advocate the religion 01 lue Established Church. However, he seem ed to bu conscious of the fact thal bo was a Jew, and in "Coningsby," ono of his novels, he touk occasion to pay a hand some tribute to tue Hebrew character, recounting the eminent positions in tho political and literary world filled by rep resentatives of his own race. After being defeated two or three times, he was elected to Parliament at tho age of thirty-two. Since that limo Ito has occu pied, many prominent positions. Ho was th-se times Chancellor of the Exchequer, a:.d while holding this position delivered his famous speech in tho Houso cf Com mons upon tho death of the Duko of Wellington in 1852. He was twice Prime Minister of England-first in 1868, and again in 1874, on the dissolu tion of Glndstono'a Ministry. Ho con tinued to occupy thia great and responsi ble office until the now Cabinet WHS or ganized with Mr. Gladstone at iu head. Whilst his political career has in several respects bcon condomned, it is conceded by all that he was a man of great genius and political sagacity. His long life was ' an illustrious and activo one. His suc cess was almost commensurate with his I aspirations, and whil?t engaged with the Inborn nf an active politic?.! life, he ? maintained a ran ic in thu literary world which is worthy of the highest emula tion. _ * REDMOND'S FATE. A letter ?from Raleigh, N. C., in refer ence tu the alleged capture aud death of Redmond, the outlawed moonshiner, says: "Redmond was at his home, in Swain County, whore he has resided slr.ee be fled from South Carolina. When the officers surrounded his house and con cealed themselves in the bushes the dogs began to bark, and Redmond took his gun and went out to see what was the matter. He was hailed by tho officers to halt. Redmond immediately raised his gun to shoot and was fired upon by the officers. He was then taken to Char leston, the county seat, where he died the next day. Ho said to Ray, who shot him : 'You have shot me ; I never sur rendered and never would have dono so.' Redmond killed aud wounded several officers during: his career, and was known as a thoroughly desperate mab, who would die 'with his boots on' rather than givo up and take bis chances in the eonvto."_' I. - Dr. John Wells Simpson, father of Chief Justice Bimpson, died at his home at Glenn dprlngs on Mondav. Uth inst., in the 85th year of hit ago. -- There was 14,701.20 in the treasury of the city of Greenville at the close of tho month of March. - Mr. John James, of Atlanta. Ga., made over $100,000 last week speculating in tho Georgia Railroad stock. - From September 1,1880, to March 81, 1881, Camden shipped 18,862 bales of cotton against 15,845 for the same time last season. The New Railroad Combination. Wc learn that Col. Wadley i)reBcntcd lo lue board the full particularit ol' tho negotiations which resulted in the rent of the Georgia Railroad-action which waa renuercd necessary by the efforts of the Clyde combination to secure tho legiti mate buf.inesH of the South Atlantic porte, specially Havannah and Charles ton. It wea shown that tho Clyde .Syn dicate have control of over fourteen hun dred miles of railway in the South, to wit: Richmond and Danville, 141 miles; Piedmont Railroad, a link built by the Confederate Government during the wur between Danville anti Greensboro',) 49 miles ; Northwestern North Carolina, 2o miles; Western North Carolina, 18o miles; North Carolina Railroad, U83 mile? ; Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta, RH) miles; Greenville and Columbia, ?G4 miles; Spartanburg, Union and Col umbia, CD miles ; Atlanta and Charlotte Air-Line, 2G'J miles; Laurens Railroad, 31 miles; Jilin- Ridge Railroad, 43 miles ; Elberton Air-Line, 50 miles. Clyde, in conjunction with fieri. Logan, of Rich mond, and other parlies, forming a strong synuicate, have left nothing undone to se cure the business of this section, with the object of building up Norfolk, to which port they have a fine steamship line from New York, :oid in which they aro largely interested. They are possessed of ample means, and their purpose was to secure thc Georgia Railroad at any price. Dur ing the negotiations, which closed with tho rent ot tho Georgia to W. M. Wadley ami associates, there was a representative of the Clyde syndicate in Augusta with instructions, it is understood, to go be yond any offer lliat might be made by other parties. The directors of the Geor gia considered tho proposition made by Messrs. Wm. M. Wudley, Moses Taylor, John IL Fisher and Samuel Sloan, the best for tho interests of the road and the State, and accepted it, as is known, de c'.ining to entertain any project having fe i its object the building up of a North Atlantic port to the detriment of South Atlantic ports. This measure was ren dered absolutely necessary to defeat the schemes of thc Clyde combination, and is claimed to he in the interests of Savan nah and Charleston. AH the d?tails, wc understand, were fully explained hy Coi. Wadley, and thc board unanimously approved of tho course pursued. Thc rent of the Georgia is not to the South Carolina Road or specifically to the own ers thereof, but virtually to Col. Win. M. Wadley, who is backed by parties having large interests in tho South Carolina. Thc Purchasing Committee of that road aro in full accord with thc lessees and arc working to so arrange matters as to place the South Carolina under a similar con tract with Messrs. Wadley and associates. This action will probably bc taken in a short time, as it is thought that the ob stacles which now prevent tho road from passing into thc hands of the firm men tioned, and 2 new organization being effected, will be speedily removed. After this thorough exposition of tho motive* which urge this unification of the roads, we understand that tho senso of the directora on the aubject of tho Cen tral entering into such a contract was taken and was found to be favorable to a combination of tho three roads under one management in a traffic agreement, without discrimination in favor of Charleston or Savannah. Further dis cussion followed in regard to various matters, tho natura of which wo ware unable to ascertain. It was decided, however, that the directory would enter tain such proposed contract as that refer red to, and tho matter was left with Col. Wadley to work up tho details, and In tangible form present his proposition ata meeting to bo called as soon as he per fects his plans. It would seem ircm this that, whilst the Central Railroad may not bo leased, that the same parties who rented the Genrgia Railroad may contract to operate and manage tho Central for an unlimited time, upon paying a certain sum per annum for tho right and comply ing with certain conditions and provis ions. It may be assumed in the event this, is doue that '.'no contractors or .Codecs will pay a &\iod round sum annu ally consid?raiiiy in excess of tho rental of tho Georgia Thia may or may not bo dono, but it would seem from tho above, which ia based on what is reliable infor mation, to bc very probable, notwith standing tho assertion that talkof a lease of th? Central ia absurd. The future will prove. It wim contended that tho Cen tral could not lease the Georgia, and yet wc Bud that Col. Wadley has flanked all obstad.?* and secured tho Georgia. All things point to the threo roads being practically made ono corporation, with Col. Wadley as manager. Mr. Quintard, controlling the Charleston and New York steamship lines, ia in full accord with tho proposed movement, and as soon as everything is accomplished, the facilities of that line will be increased. - The controlling idea in the whole movement seems to ho that Charleston nnd Savannah, under existing circum stances, cannot afford to be rivals and must work harmoniously together. Thia in brief, we think, comprises the main point; of the present status of railroad affairs. Although our deductions upon tho results of yesterday's meeting may not bo entirely accurate, yet they are log ical.-.SlirannaA Newt. The Laurens Lynching. . A dispatch from Newberry to the Netra and Charier confirms the statement that a woman has been lynched in Laurens, tho first instance of tue sort ever known in this State. It says : "Sunday nicht, tho 3d inst., tho barn of Mr. J. S. Blalock, at Martin's depot. Laurens County, was set fire to and burned. Tho barn was near tho dwell ing-house, so near that tho inferonce was that it was the purpose of tho incendiary to burn tho dwelling-house too. Mr. Blalock made Investigations which satis fied him that the incendiary was a negro woman named Judy Metts, living on his place. On Saturday, the 9th inst., he went to Trial ?M?stico N. a. Harris, at Clinton, and swore out a warrant against thc wo?i?O. The Trial Justice placed the warrant in the bauds of Constable Samuel Gary, who arrested Judy Metts at Martin's depot, on Saturday night, and started with her to Clinton. Two miles above Martin's a party of men on horseback overtook tho constable and his prisoner. The party were disguised, haviicloth over their faces, with eye hole* .a see through. Some of the party took charge of the constable and others took the prisoner, and carried them off in different directions. Tho constable says that ho was kept about an hour and was then told to "git," which ho accord ingly did without delay, going to Clinton. Tho woman was found the next morning about two hundred yards from where the lynchers took her, hanging about twenty feet from the ground by the neck to a tree dead. The Coroner's inquest on Monday returned a verdict that she came to her death by hanging at tho hands of persons unknown to tho jury. Nothing has been done so far as I have hoard to discover the lynchers. Tho woman leaves a husband and children. This same woman was accused two years apo of burning the dwelling-house of a Mir. Simpson." - In tho year 1879 there were 618 bales of cotton shipped from Walhalla, and in the year 1880, 991 bales were shipped. There were also shipped in 1880 4,000 head of cattle and 21,270 fowls. - Ensign George M. Stoney, of this State, now in tho United Statca Navy, is ono of the crew assigned to the Arctic exploring ship to be sen1, in search of the Jeanndte. As there was considerable competition, this is quite ?\ compliment. Ensign Stoney graduated at Annapolis ofter the war.- Winneboro* Neun. THF ISLAM) OF ?KATH. A Graphic rictitro of the Desolation of Chlo. LONDON, April 17. A corrcapoud?nt of tho Time* ut Chlo BPTH : I have now made fron personal observation and with thc help of others a pretty thorough canvass of the ntate of affairs throughout thc Island. The total number dead is scarcely less than 4,000, although some allowance may be due to the fact that immediately after thc disas ter many persons crossed lo the main land, and some of thone now reported as dead may bo there. The villages on the southern .tide of the Island are com pletely wrecked, hardly a singlo house being left standing. Tho centre of thc volcanic action seem? to have been nei-r Neuita, overlooking Mcgalo Hay on the eas* coast, where 300 persons perished out of a population of 1,200. At Vouiios 20 perished out ol 'a population of GOO. At J'hi lit ia 00 out of 200 j at Klamonti 40 out of 1,500, nt Armitia 40 out of COO and at Kenri 130 out of 480, on the western side of thc island at Menta many houses fell, but nobody was killed. At Vesta three-fourths of the buildings were wrecked, but only one person was killed. At Lethi 23 persons were killed out of GOO, at Aigonima 40 out of 400. At Anu jatos 12 were killed. This is tho most northerly town on the west side, which HU flu ed severely. Other towns were severely shaken, but arc not in ruins. Tho department of Ohio and the towns southeast of it suffered moat of all. Kallcmissa is simply a mass of ruins, and il ia difficult to distinguish oue house from another. I cannot conceive bow any considerable number of the popula tion escaped, yet univ 448 Perished out of 1,800. Neighboring villages suffered similarly. Seven of the principal con tained 8,570 people und arc believed to have lost 1,327 dead. At least nine tcnthaof tho houses in thc southern and southeastern portions of tho island must be rebuilt or repaired. The population ure now living in tenta and there is great need of food mid shelter. The northern part requires help, but to a lesa cxten,t. rbotiCi severely wounded are nearly all being brought to Ohio by mon from ibo ships. The work of clearing away tho ruins hns begun here, but in thc villages the people aro still panic stricken. Lit tle can bo done aa long as the shocks con tinue. Of 200 persons, for example, who perished in Thclopotamoi, only 05 bodies nave yet been recovered, and a similar proportion in oilier villages. AI out 50,000 people arc camping in the south ern half of the island, with nothing but what they havo on their backs. Pro gresa hos been mado towards systematiz ing a relief organization. Tho people are further demoralized by tho preaching of a foolish Greek priest, who warns them all to fico as the'island is about to bc completely swallowed up. The arch bishop and the governor aro seeking to allay tho excitement, but many are still emigrating to tho mainland and to the adjacent islands. At Knllcmissa a German doetor, who waa in ono of the houses at tho time of thc disaster, relates that tho first warn ing ho bad was seeing tho dishes on tho tabio jump up and fall on the floor. A few second* later the walla fell out wards. From thisand similar testimony, I believe that in thia district tho first shock waa nearly vertical, followed im mediately by horizontal oscillations. LIU II ?KKH? FOR HIS MONEY. Olio Brother Murdered find tho Other Unconsciously Becomes Illa Avenger. A merchant of this city who baa been iu the Western part of the State for sev eral days past, and just returned home yesterday, brings an account of a big sensation with which that section is stir red up at present. Tho current report aa ho relates it, presents situations of ao startling a nature as to be scarcely par alleled in the record of modern crimes. Two horse drovers from Tennesseo were proceeding through Mitchell Coun ty, their destination being Asheville, with a" drove of horses, when two of the num ber were discovered missing from the drove since their last stopping place, some distance back. It was agreed by the drovers, who were brothers, that one of them should proceed to Asheville with tho main drove, while tho other should return for tho purpose of recovering the strayed horses; and that they should both meet at a house which was then in sight ; the one after he had sold tho horses in Asheville and gotten the money for them, and tho other when he had succeeded in his search. The latter, after some days, succeeded in finding the horses and bringing them to thc house where he had tho appointment to meet his brother When ne inquired at the house if his brother had arrived, ho was told that no such man bad been seen. In accordance with a mutual agreement to await tho other's arrival if either reached the spot first, he explain ed his purpose and applied for accommo dations for tho night. He was given Eermission to stay, and retired at au early our to a room to which ho was shown, the door of which he took the precaution to lock before going to bed. Some time during the night ho was awakened by a knocking at the door. He inquired who I was there, and received the answer, I "Your brother," in a strange voice. He replied that it was not his brother's voice. He was told it made no difference ; it WM desired he should open the door ?nyway. He refused, and a threat was made to break down the door. He replied no moro, but held his pistol, which he had before secured, in readi ness. Several vigorous blows with an axo demolished the door, and ho .discov ered two mon by a light held in tho hands of a woman, wno was standing behind them. Two well-aimed shots from tho revolver of the Tennessean brought down tho men, ono after the other. The wo man dropped the light to seize the axe, ard a third shot killed her. Recovering from the amazement into which the rapidity of these occurrences had thrown him. A horrid MMploiOD "hot through him which was fully confirmed by the result. Obtaining a light and making an investigation of the apart ment, no found under the bcd upon which he bad been sleeping the dead body of his murdered brother I He had evidently been rlfled^of his money and other valuables, and these were found, upon further investigation, upon the premises.- Charlotte OSterrer, April 4. _____ A Notable Execution. ST. PETERSBURG, April 15. All the Nihilists, except tho woman Hessy Helfmann, condemned to death for connection with the Czar's assassina tion, namely: Russakoff, Michaeloff, Kib?ltzhitsch. Jelibboff and Sophie Pie ovsky, were hanged at 10 o'clock this morning. Michacloff s rope broke twice. Order was not disturbed. There was an immense concourse of spectators. Appeals for mercy to tho Nihilists Russakoff and Michaeloff were submitted to tho Czar, but he replied that the sen tence of the court must be carried out. The condemned Nihilists were escorted from the fortress to the pl see of execu tion by Cossacks and infantry with drums and ute*. Detachments of all regiments of guards stationed in St, Petersburg sur rounded the scaffold. All the prisoners received the ministrations of priests and kissed the cross and each other. They were very firm, except Russakoff, who fainted at the last moment.. - Two brothers fell out near the Ker shaw and Fairfield line ? week ur two ago, and ono of them, picking up a light wood knot, threw it at tho other and struck him in the head.
