September 17. Your correspondent is not ubiquitous, only a little like the Prussians in France, to be found generally about the country. In my peregrinations I find myself again among these '.human fossils,"' where are still entertained those antiquated ideas of Integrity and honor, far behind the age of railroads, telegraphs, fast women and political tricksters. The tyrannical misrule of Dictator Scott has thoroughly aroused all classes here to a full appreciation of the necessity for the "Reform" which has been inaugurated, and they are working with an energy which must Insure success. The colored people are co-operating heartily with the whites in the effort to roll np a handsome majority lor Carpenter and Bat ler in October. Charles Heape, county jailor. July Brown, Jack McClellan, Toby Grant, and other colored men of respectability, are call? ing meetings among their people, and are de? voting their energies In every other way in the common cause. With perfect confidence, I predict that Colleton, with the exception of that excrescence, Summerville, and a portion of the county lying next to Beaufort, will teach the Scott Radicals a lesson in October never dreamed of in their philosophy. To-day, were it prudent, I could tell them things which would cause a howl of dlsap ?ointment to go up from the "Head Centre." ,et us take their meeting here on the 10th as a criterion. It had been advertised at every cross-road for weeks ahead; yet they did not muster a corporal'6 guard. In a fit of despera? tion they ' ppointed a committee to walt on Colonel Campbell and ask him to address them, boping' thereby to draw a crowd-and lt was aper/ect success. Colonel Campbell was fol? lowed by A. P. Holmes in a speech so soporific that the audience were only aroused from their slumbers hy the rir.gieg voice of J. J. Fox, who had arraigned Governor Scott and his tool, Mclntvre, aDrl was convicting each by the evidence of the other. He used strong and plain J.uglish In portraying the perfidy of Scott and his party. He read from the House Journa: Mclntvre'svote against the bill for funding the bills o'f the Bank of thc State, where he charged Scott with corruption and "'Inaugurating a scheme to enrich himsolt at the expense of the State." He told Them that this Mclntvre was DOW among them boast? ing that he had" $10,000 with which he would buy their votes for this same man he had charged in '68 with prostituting bis power. This Induced the chairman to send three mes? sages after Mr. McIntyre to come and defend himself and his candidate. But McIntyre knew what Fox was saying could not be ccntro verted. and felt no disposition to "break a lance" with him. besides, be had seen others writhing under the sting of Fox's sarcastic wit; and, whilst he acknowledged lt fashionable in hie party, felt no Inclination to become himself a martyr. Among the speakers at this meeting were the two Trial Justices Jacoby; and, as it is my purpose to give you an account of the actings and doings of the several trial Justices of this county, l will begin here with the first of these* Sigismund A. Jacoby, who used to ply the trade of peddler, and is now located In Sheridan Township. In a pair of huge, fiat and angular feet, the toes almost on a line with the outer seams of his pants, are a pair of little, shriveled, knock-kneed legs, supporting a body bent from the heavy burdens it has been required to sustain; surmounted by a huge head, covered with a mass of matted black hair, the forehead low and receding, tbc eyes almond-shaped, and beyond the reach of an Infant's finger; the nose large, and termi? nating in a pair ot nostril Into which could be inserted the fists of the aforementioned infant; the mouth-lils "mother, In shame for such propagation must have attempted to cut bis head off with a cieaver. ?Picture such a caricature, and you may form some faint idea of this little monster. He who supposes this picture "overdrawn," can very soon have the evidence of his own senses to prove that lt falls far short of coming up to the original. Nor is his mind less a deformity than hts body. Ignorant, vicious, unscrupulous and vindictive, he ls a fit tool for Scott or any other tyrant who mav require his services. He got ia debt in his own name, and swindled his creditors by assuming, up here, the name o? Rudolph Robinson & Co. A clear case of perjury has recently been proved against him, in which some of the moEt Radical men In the county swore they would not believe him on hi?, oath. A travelling showman who was takeu Ul at his store, was permitted to remain in ihe. piazza until in the very agonies of loath, when he was removed to an old empty out? house, where he died. Jacoby sold lils team, wagon and animals, and pocketed $140 for e;c pensesand services. The League has been reorganized in his township, under his supervision, and the way he controls may be inierrad from the follow" ing : Mr. Fox was incited by the colored people to speak ai a meeting In Jacoby's neighbor? hood. On hi3 arrival, Jacoby ordered him to quit the ground; that he only came there "to tell dese people dam Democrat lies," and called on the colored people to drive him away. But Fox was of sterner stuff than to be Intimidated, and, by his conduct, gave courage to those who had Invited him to remonstrate with the infuriated little beast. But he only became more furious, and swore that they "should not listen to dat dam fella." Fox be? gan to speak in spite of him, when lie rushed up to Fox, cursing and brandishing his fists. This was more than Fox could stand; so he turned on Jacoby, and, in a tone not to be mis? taken, said : "Sit down and hold your tongue, you damned little thief." This brought a shout from the crowd, and caused the little wretch to subside. Clothed with judicial authority by our peace and prosperity (Individual) loving Governor, this creature is feared and despised by the people of his neighborhood. In my next, I viii give you sortie of the rich? est and raciest trials and decislcas on record. Everybody ls on the qui vive lor Carpenter ind Butler. All things promise au immense ind enthusiastic meeting on the 23d, notwith? standing the "irrepressible" Klein has ordered everybody out to work the roads, so as to pre? vent lt. The day of Radical grace is well nigh spent, an* that of retribution is at hand-and they feel ii. J?AN. POZITIC8 ZS VIRGINIA. RICHMOND, September 21 The Republican Convention met in the baited States Court-room to-day, and was pre? sided over by J. H. Earmoo, ex-chief quarter? master of Stonewall Jackson. Resolutions were adopted affirming that Congress and President Grant have redeemed their promi? ses to the people, as the reduction ol the pub? lic debt and general prosperity shows; that the "true Republicans ol Virginia" have affili? ated with Democrats, but there can be only two parties, Democrat and Republican, in the State; expressing sympathy lor trie people abroad straggling for liberty; that the acts of the Legislature have shown that the fruits ol the new State Constitution cannot be realized without Republican ascendency; ask? ing Congres to give effect to the homestead exemption of Virginia by amending the bank? rupt law: and, finally, askins Congress to pay ill loyal Southern mea lor property taken and services rendered prior to the war. A plan Tor a Congressional campaign was adopted. Among the delegates were United States 3enator Lewis, Congressmen Porter and Piatt. ex-Governor Wells and Judge Alex. Rives. The Republican Congressional Nominating Convention, for the First Congressional Dis? trict, yesterday nominated Dr. Norton, color? ed, for Congress. The white members of the convention then withdrew, and nominated Dr. W. Douglass, white. Thc contending parties agreed to-day to submit their differences to the National Executive Committee for arbitra? tion. ' PARIS INVESTED. PROGRESS OF PEACE NEGOTIA? TIONS.

Another London journal says that the only point discussed thus far ls, who can ratify the treaty on the French side. Communication between London and Paris has been reopened. Dispatches from Berlin state that a constitu? tion is in course of preparation for the security of German unity.

The contingent of each division of the Ital? ian army has entered Rome. The remainder are camped outside the walls. The Papal troops laid down their arms and defiled before the Italian soldiers, who cheered lustily for Victor Emanuel. The Papal Legion have gone to Civlta Vecchia to await trans? portation to the respective homes of its mem? bers. The Italian loss before the walls was trifllng-.

Near Versailles a body of two thousand Mobiles captured a number of Prussians, whose protection hud been solic? ited by the inhabitants. TOURS, Septembe r 22. The Prussians have cut the Orleans Railroad, and now occupy several points along the line. The cars run only to Blois. The Prussians menace Orleans. The Arab troops have been sent back from Marseilles to suppress a general revolt in Algeria. The bronze statuary in Paris have been melted to make cannon. There is nothing definite from Paris to-day. There-is great activity among the troops here. Many are leaving hastily. One hun? dred armed men from Blois left from fear that the Prussians would 60on enter. The railroad Bervice is still irregular. There ls a strong movement on the part of the clergy ot France favoring national defence. The railway and postal service is still ex? tremely irregular. English Reports. LONDON, September 22. It is generally believed here that the Prus? sians are negotiating with France solely for the sake of delay. * The German Official Gazette, a new journal published at Hagenau, in Bas Rhin, Alsace, in its first number refers to the proposed incor? poration of Alsace and Lorraine into Germany, and says that Alsace and Lorraine are already Teutonic in politics, language, manners and ideas. They will only be too happy to sepa? rate irom infidel, socialistic France. LIVERPOOL, September 22. Several cargoes of cotton and other goods, recently arrived here from Havre, were ship? ped to prevent their falling into the hands ot the Prussians. Prussian Reports. MENDELSHEIM. September 22.

The agents of the Bremen Line, yesterday afternoon, received a cable telegram from Bre? men directing that the steamers Hermann and Frankfort get ready for sea without delay. It ls expected that they will sall for Bremen on Saturday next. PRUSSIA'S ULTIMATUM. Favre Supersedes English Efforts by Himself Arranging an Interview I Granville Discourages the Efforts of Lyons to Ascertain Terms ot Peace Interview Between a British Secre? tary of Legation and Bismarck Puris to be Barned if Necessary Russia's Attitude. LONDON, Monday, September 19. The correspondent^ the Tribune at Berlin telegraphs : "The Foreign Office has commu? nicated to the American Minister advices re? ceived from the headquarters of the King sta? ting that Favre, without awaiting the results ol Granville's steps to procure tor him an in? terview with Bismarck, applied to Bismarck direct, and received prompt permission for an Immediate conference." Mr. E. D. Malet, the Second Secretary to the BrltlBh Embassy in Paris, finally succeeded In making his way to the Prussian headquarters, and returned on Friday, bringing an answer irom Bismarck to Lord Lyon3. Before this answer, Lyons had asked Favre whether, If England requested an armistice, the French Government would welcome her invitation. When this became known to Earl Granville, Lord Lyons was politely rebuked for his pains. Bent ou Improving the situation, Lyons then sent Malet on an informal mission to Bismarck, sending notification of the fact to Granville alter Malet had gone. Granville forthwith directed Lyons to summon Malet back. Lyons obeyed, but his messenger took the wrong road. Malet, after Eeveral failures, succeeded in making his way through thc cloud of Uh? lans and reached the headquarters ol the King; but of all this succession of cross purposes there grew up a considerable cosiness be I tween Lyons and Granville. Maleta talk with Bismarck was frank and to the point. He asked for an alilmatum. "We must have Metz and Strasbourg," said Bismarck. "Dismantled ?" asked Malet. "No !" replied Bismarck, Stronger ihan ever."" "Then, suppose the French Government finds your terms Impossible P* "We shall invest and starve Paris; If that does not succeed, we shall try sharper; means." "Would you bombard the city ?" "Certainly; and burn it, rf forced. The .necessity is sad, but how ls lt to be escaped ?" Bismarck's observations about Gladstone1 and Granville, and their tim'.;1 message-carry-1 ing, was the reverse of respectful, and he did! not hesitate to let it be s ?m that he cared' nothing for the effols ol '.'iitslders, and wa?: resolved to settle al! nuestions with France, alone. ; For Lord Lyots himself, Bismarck professed : respect and good will, Mid cordially advised him to "get out of Pai Is while he could." He had informed Granville that when the Siege? ls once begun he will allow no communication between foreign governments and their em? bassies inside the eily. The written answer sent by Bismarck tr, Lyona wae confidential, and has not been disclosed; but Lyons Inti? mates that he thinks bismarck means to have Paris In his hands beiore concluding peace, as the most effectual means of enforcing his demands. Nor ls the French Government confident of defence. Trochu told Lyons that he should do his best, "but there will be a massacre, aad that will be followed by onarchy." The Minis? ters, however, In public, still utter brave words. Russia's attitude ls still one of reserve. It is now ascertained that when Gortschakoff was asked by England to join la a fresh guarantee for Belgium, he answered, "Yes, If you will include Holland." Non-intervention by Germany in Italy ls agreed upon; thc Italians may occupy Rome, Savoy and Nice, if the people wish to renounce their present allegiance; and notification in accordance with these views ls sent to other European Cabinets. The reorganization of Germany is also con? sidered. Details a'e postponed for the pres? ent, but it is understood thai common con? stitution will be given to ali tho States of Ger? many, north and south ol' the Main alike, with ample guarantees for healthful, political and economical development. Bavaria and Baden distinctly decline territorial enlargement, while agreeing that Alsace and Lorraine must be returned to Germany. Von Kuhlwetter, a recently appointed civil commissioner tor Alsace, hos telegraphed to the Boards of Trade at Elbeiield and Bremen, asking their views respecting the probable In? fluence upon German Industrial Interests of the admission of Alsace and the Department ol the Moselle into the Germanic Zollverein. THE CREAM OF THE WAR NEWS. The Fighting at Vionville. A letter'to the London Times says : Up to this time the eoldiers' opinion of the day waa that it was throughout a fearful fire on the part of the French, and that their shoot? ing WAS beyond all praise. They say that '66 was child's play, as regards fire, compared to what they have hal to withstand in the present war; and, moreover, thu they hive never seen the French make so good a stand as to day. But, in the meantime, the want of infantry caused a somewhat serious sacrifice or cavalry, who had lepeatedly to charge both infintrv and artillery to hold them io che:k. Tho mea do not ride particularly well to look at, but the manner in which thpy ride into the jaws of death is really quite ? la Balaklava. One regiment, the 7th Cuirassiere, waa ordered to charge a battery of artillery, aud actually got into it, one of the first in, 1 am proud to ^ay, being a young Englishman who has taken Berrico io tbo Prussian army, aud has just got his lieutenancy. It went io some 300 strong, and what its lose was I tremble lo say. When I next saw il. it seemed to me scarcely a hun dreJ, all told. At 2:30 the reserve artillery was brought np, ?nd the cannonade became heavier than ever. The sun, too, at this mo? ment, seemed to Lave come nearer to us, as .f to sec this fearful butchery of mankind, and the hsit became tremendous. Then, when? ever you veit, came the pleadr.g cry of "Wa? te-, witer! f;r pity's sake give m9 water!" The Krankentr?gers-or bearers of the sick had now more than they could do, admirable as the whole machinery of the corps worked. A certaiu number of vens are told off to each brigade, with an adequate umber of men with 8tr*-tchbiy. These, the moment the fire slack? ens for tho le ?st in any part or the field, through the advance of the troops or other e-r.ses, proceed OM their errand of mercy, and bear the meo to thc wagon, which is ever in a oosition, as much as possiole, out of fire. The position ot both the combative forces were perfectly stationary for an bonr, a sort of duel being carried on between them, which, tbough at som? distance, was quite near enough to have fearful resul s. I saw a whole 6tnng of pria ners brought in of almost every descrip? tion of regiment. There was the burly giant ot Cuiraaaiers, beside the little French liuer, tue green-jacketad Hussir, and the artillery? men, all cbntting away and seeming to me to be u?cnmmoolv glad to be oat of the affair at any priie. Seeing soma of the infantry en? gaged on the extreme right, 1 went there, and met one regiment just coming out of the acion to recro?t, buiag at tnat moment commanded by a youth ofmcotsen; having lost thirteen of its officers ance the moraine. Tue number or it was the 52d, and to tlie usual inquiring glance that all officers who had not seen me bef?te throw over my most unregimental at? tire. I replied by offering him a drink of some of the dirtiest water I ever saw, which I had procured from H pond, and which to both of ns was better than tho beet iced champagne. There was no iaquiring then; I was instantly the best fellow he ever saw, and he told me all about what fun it was to be in command; that be thought he was sure to get something now, and that he meant to have another go in di? rectly, SK. Be was the most thoroughly English-German boy I ever saw. We stood under a tree together, and I gavj him some cigars and left him. Two hours afterwards 1 saw his dead body laid out willi others in a row. the cigars still stuck between the buttons of his coat. This one little anecdote, when I say it is but a fair sample of other regiments, will show how fearful the loss has been on the Prussian side. English Worklngmen's Demonstration In Favor ot France. An immense popular demonstration took place in Trafalgar Square, London, on Monday night, in lavor of the French Republic and against German aggression. Several hundred thousands of citizens, chiefly workingmen and tradespeople, participated. The square was Illuminated with calcium lights and thousands of transparencies, the latter bearing liberty mottoes. The "Star-spangled Banner" and other American airs, and the "Marseillaise''and other French odes formed the leading part of the musical programme. Several speeches were made. A spirited address to the Repub? lic of France was adopted, in which it declared that the monarchs of Germany prosecute the war now against Republicanism and not against France, and that in so doing they are guilty of a great crime against liberty and humanity, against the people of Germany as well as against the people of France. The address tells the people of France that the English people have demanded, demand, and will not cease to demand the recognition of the Republic in France until they shall have wrung compliance with their will from a vacil? lating and cowardly minist?/. lt is universally admitted that no such de? monstration has ever before been seen in Lon? don; and whatever may be said or left unsaid by the London Journals to belittle and to mis? represent it, it ls considered by thinking men here to be the beginning of a political change in which the government of Mr. Gladstone has prepared the" way, and by which it will be Bwept out of power if It tails to accept and as? sist lt It was announced that a national association of workingmen had been formed In the inter? ests of European peace; that an agitation in favor of arbitration In the stead ol' war wonld be begun and carried on throughout England, and that demonstrations would he prepared before the assemblage of Parliament lo which Parliament and the Government would be ?compelled to give heed. THE FALLEN DYNASTY. (Le Solr's Accosnt ot Napoleon's Sur? render. The French account ol the surrender of the Emperor and hie Interview with the King, -given in a communication in the Soir, ?rom >DInant Belgium, ef the 5th, says : Listen, for what I can now give you ls a >page of histor}'. JTapoleon III, having written .to the King of Prussia the letter which you are acquainted with, William replied : "Let him .come himself; otherwise he will be treated .like a private soldier, although he scarce] v de feerves lt." Napoleon then betook himself in :the manner related to the farm at which the liing had established his headquarters. The ?.cal?che having arrived at the door of the .-house, tlie ex-Emperor alighted, EXTINGUISHED HIS CIGARETTE, and entered alone into the low chamber, where the King, in a general's uniform, with bis helmet on, was walking up and down in a feverish state, his hands crossed behind his I back. The Prince and the great officers form I ea! a group in one of the corners of the apart? ment The ex-Emperor took off his hat and saluted the King, using the German language. William did not reply, either by word or ges? ture, but after a few more paces, came and placed himself erect. stiff, and terrible. ID front of Napoleon, who remained bareheaded, with his bead slightly Inclined. "Sire," he said, still In German, "I came to repeat to your Majesty viva voce what I had the honor of writing to you yesterday eveDlng. "It ls well, sir,' replied the Klug, whose color was considerably heightened, whilst his voice had a whistling sound, owing to the efforts he made to restrain himself, "I have decided that Spandau shall be assigned to you for prison I mean residence; you will there walt for my further orders." "SIRE," SAID NAPOLEON "I have spoken, slr." exclaimed the King, strik? ing his sabre on the dusty floor of the room. ..Au revoir donc Monsieur, mon frere," said the Emperor, this time In French; he then sa? luted in the most courteous manner the differ? ent personages, and left the room as calm as if he had been presiding at an opening of the Chambers. When outside he took a cigarette and lighted lt by the cigar of a cuirassier in white uniform, and was preparing to again get Into his carriage when a general officer came from the King to beg him to pass into a neigh? boring conn, where William, who wisbedto have a longer conversation, would send for him. Napoleon said not a word, but, escorted by two cuirassiers, passed into a court where there was a small wooden bench at the edge of a little piece of water. On this he quietly took his seat, continuing to smoke, and only stop? ing at Intervals to look at the pool and at the staff officer who, standing up, was watching all his movements. After walting a quarter of an hour, the ex-Emperor, in French, begged the officer to order him a glass of water. One of the cuirassiers brought lt. He moistened his lips with it. and then, looking at the contents of the glass, smiled and said to the officer, "Nero, when conquered, passed his last hour near a pond, from which he drank; I am more fortunate than he." Then, having swallowed all the water and given back the glass: "It is true," he added, "that MT REIGN NEVER RESEMBLED HIS." So saying, he resumed his smoking. After a good, half hour a general officer came lrom the Prussian monarch to beg him to enter a room where the King was alone. They re? mained together for nearly an hour and a half, speaking in a very low tone. At the end of the Interview the ex-Emperor got into a post chaise with the Prussian arms TD it, and took the route by Luxembourg to Cassel, where he will proceed to Spandau. This last is a lort ress which protects Berlin on the northeast side; It contains a State prison of a very gloomy aspect. Those who form the suite of the King pretend that it is the Intention ol his Majesty to leave Napoleon there to the end of his days. A perpetual imprisonment, the King is reported to have said, would be only the Just chastisement of so great an offender. An offi? cer of the Prussian Blaff, who is going to Na? mur and Brussels on a special mission, affirms that without the intervention of the Prince Royal and that of Count de Bismarck, the King was determiued to have the Emperor shot, so great was his exasperation against him for having caused the death of so many brave soldiers. The equipages, carriages anil the imperial servants were seized on at Arion by the Belgium authorities; the various per? sons belonging to him were liberated on pa? role, but with a recomthendatlon to get rid of their liveries, which they very readily (I'M. THE EMPEROR'S PRISON. "I have given him Wilhelmshohe,-' says the King of Prussia in that telegraphic dispatch to the Queen, his wife, wbicii briefly but elo? quently depicts a great scene In the drama of historv. There is. Indeed, something highly drama'tic in this gift to a broken man. -Where and what manner of place is Wilhelmshohe ?" manv readers will ask. It ls the Versailles of Cassel, lt is a chateau and pleasure park on the east slope ol the Habichtswald Mountains: and it has for the captive Emperor associa? tions ol'peculiar interest forasmuch as lt was once the favorite resort of his uncle Jerome, sometime King of Westphalia. This palatial retreat and its surroundings are in the luxu? rious taste of the last century.

INSOLENT DEMANDS OF THE SCOTT CREW. All <iui< t at Last Accounts. The Newberry Herald gives the following account of the negro insurrection in New? berry: "Coming events cast their shadows before," and we may well be prepared for what seems inevitably to come. Sunday afternoon a re? port reached town that a large armed band of colored men were in the neighborhood of Bel? mont, swearing to burn out and kill Mr. James Chappell, who had a difficult}' some days be fore with a negro whom he was desirous of | drlvlDtr off the plantation of Mr. Moses Ander? son, at the latter's request. The difficulty, we learn, had been settled; however, afterwards; Mr. Paysinger, sheriff, proceeded to the spot, and there learned that a party of sixty colored men had gone to the house of Mr. Anderson, where Chappell was, and Mr. William Satter white went out and asked what was wanted. He was told they wanted Mr. Chappell; that they were going to hang him. Mr. S. said lt could not be. They then threatened to kill him. The party in the house then came ont, five in number, armed, when the negroes went off and were joined by others, altogether amounting to a large force. The citizens In the meantime turned out, and both parties, as night had come on, re? mained in position about two miles apart till morning, Mr. Paysinger with the company of citizens. Next morning, having business in town, Mr. P. started back, taking Mr. Chappell along under arrest to carry out the law in his case, Mr. Jack Henderson in company. On the road near Longshore's Store they were stopped by a company of armed negroes formed In line. This party threatened to kill the sheriff, but finally consented to let him and the two others pass. On being ordered to disperse, and, if not peaceably, they should be forced, they replied there were not men enough In Newberry to disperse them. Returning to the scene of action near Bel? mont, in company with two young men, Mr. P. overtook a force, of constabulary and col? ored men from town going in the same di? rection. These he directed to go on and meet the hostile negroes and tell them that peace had to be preserved, that he would meet fhem and see what was. to be done or what they wanted. He wanted them to disperse, but If they wanted war and would have lt they should be gratified. Arriving on the ground he found a large force, perhaps six or eight hundred in number, of white men mounted and armed, who had gathered In his absence, having beard besides that Crews with a force from Laurens were on the way to reinforce the Belmont outlaws. Mr. P., tnen. with three or four leading men of the neighborhood, advanced to the hostile party ana demanded to know what they wanted. The answer was justice. They were told they should have it, but they must disperse, and also give up the sixty who had threatened Mr. C's life, and to burn his premises. After con? siderable demur the demand was wisely agreed to, but only twenty-three of the offenders could be found; these were given up and placed tinder arrest. The armed party ot white mounted men, who bad thus far been kept In the background, were now ordered up and filed past Tn review, when the negroes quietly dispersed, promising to go to their homes. Tbe town party then started on their return home with toe prisoners. In the meantime a negro came Into town shot In the arm, and reported the wound In? flicted by Mr. George Johnstone, who was with Mr. Paysinger. A howl was at once raised, and a party of Infuriated colored boys and men started to take Mr. J. These self-aD pointed judges, and would-be executioners, met the returning sherill's party and were very violent in demonstration against Ur. J., In fact, fired one ehot at him. The Insulting language and threats were hard to bear, but they were borne patiently. It was ascer? tained finally that the paru suspected was not the one, and the company of peace-makers reached town safely. Here the scene baffles description; the town was in an uproar, that is, the colored portion, and nothing but the quiet determination ot the white citizens, and their great forbearance, kept off a collision. The prisoners were placed under guard, and finally gave bond for appearance at court, which ls now sitting. At night a force was put on guard as a necessary precaution against the threats and violence ol the afternoon. Not by lng transpired during the night to disturb the quiet, and in the morning no sign of the dis? turbance could be seen. It may be mentioned that the mounted citi? zens, Instead of coming towards town, moved in the direction of Edgefield, as it was reported that a large force of negroes were near the Saluda River, and about to cross to Join Issue with the Belmonters, but the result of this we have not ascertained. Tbls ls a plain, unvarnished account of the whole affair, so far as we can learn. The ne? groes were wholly in the wrong. If Mr. Chap? pell committed an offence against the law; in striking a man who grappled with him, to the law recourse should 'have been had. But this seems no: t'-.e advice of party Radical leaders; the purpose evidently ls to bring on a collision, and tbe colored people are foolish enough to be led Into the trap. We don't want this fight; we deprecate it, and will go to all reasonable lengths to prevent it, but patience will soon cease to be a virtue, and If these blinded color? ed people are determined to precipitate lt, they will get lt, we fear, before long. We do not wish to make a great sensation article of this, or stir up any more feeling than has been shown. On the contrary, our desire le, as is the purpose and wish of every honest citizen, and among this number not a few col? ored men, to maintain tbe peace at all hazards; but we would perhaps be doing wrong did we not mention that one ot the white constabula? ry force, and the chief of them all, after prom? ising the sheriff to aid him in quelling the riot, was seen to take hold of a negro, and heard to tell him, "co go in and defend his rights." We have this on unquestioned au? thority. It ls well that the people know how the constabulary force stand. We still ask our citizens to bear as much as can be borne In reason. The Edgefield Advertiser says: Our citizens who left town on Tuesday for the scene of the reported difficulties have re? turned. They corroborate the statement 0.' the Phoenix, and report the excitement as having been Intense on Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. As many as seven or eight hundred negroes and as many whites, with arms in their hands, were at one time formally arrayed against each other inline of battle. But the negroes, seeing that the whites were fully prepared and fully determined, con? sulted among themselves and wisely deter? mined to go back to the cotton fields. It is said further that they promised the whites they weald not awaiti gather together in this unlawful and uncalled for manner. Tbe coun? try in the neighborhood of Chappell's is now quiet. _ _ CENSUS OF TBE DISTRICT OF CO? LUMBIA. WASHINGTON, September 22. The customs for the week ending the 17th, were $4,500,000.

One feature,, however, of the programme was omitted namely, the performance of the Trinity Church choir. At the eleventh hour, as it were, the presence of the choir was forbidden, but by whom does not yet appear. The chapel was crowded to its utmost capacity, many ot the congregation evidently being attracted from motives o? curiosity. The altar adornments were of the most gorgeous description, and the blazing lights quite as profuse as those of St. Albans. The officiating clergy were Rev. Messrs. Bradley, Bruce, Swope, Shackelford,. Brown and Parkman. The services consisted of what the ritualists call a low mass, or rather a series of low masses, which may be - described as a compound o? the communion service in the Episcopal Book of Common. Prayer and the Roman Catholic formulas. The> ch an ts were Gregorian and rather Indifferently - sung. Another remarkable feature of the ser? vice was the presence ol the insistera of St. Mary, an Episcopal order, clad In black veils and white coifs, ornamented with crosses, similar to those worn by the Roman Catholio Sisters of Mercy.
