VOLUME XI.-NUMBER 1779. CHARLESTON, THURSDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 7, 1871. EIGHT DOLLARS A YEAR. AFFAIRS IX ORASGEB?RG, [FRCM AN OCCASIONAL CORRESPONDENT.] ORANGEBUBG, September 3. Yesterday the Radicals had what they called a "HIASS meeting," that is to say, they drum? med up a large number of poor colored devils from their work in the surrounding country, who were summoned to meet together to dis? cuss what th?) Radical paper calls an "event, the like of'rt hlch never was in the history of Orangeb'irg County." Who called this meet? ing, you would like to know ? I can't tell you. What was the object, I am tty. a loss to know, but will . leave you to gather as you go on. The Radicals don't seem to think the authorship of the call any great things to brag about, for I see the clerk of the court came out very hastily, and emphat? ically repudiates any call on his part, and de? nies earnestly that he had any hand in lt. Ic may have been Byass, who, I learn, ls anxious to serve his country In the Legislature, another term. Or, it may have been that estimable and patriotic gentleman. H?ge, who, they say, gives out that bis services are much needed in ^P^the National Assembly at Washington. If they didn't call.the meeting, they were there. I learn these two worthies charged and reared around In a most characteristic manner, and were prepared then and there to devour every E. BT. in the country. I could not fathom the object of the meeting, and would leave you to hunt it up. I therefore enclose you a copy of the resolutions then and there adopted, which a gentleman on the committee har >d me. v/ THE ANTI-KC-KLCX RESOLUTIONS. /^?Whereas, We, the citizens of Orangeburg County, In mass meeting assembled, do recog? nize with profound regret that an organiza? tion, whose avowed purpose is inimical to all the best Interests of the county and the State, has recently made its appearance among us; therefore, be lt Resolved, That lt is the sense of this meeting, first, that ail offences against the laws should be punished by the laws, and In no other way; second, that Te deprecate all crimes, whether by night or V{ day, in common with all good citizens; third, that we consider the organiza? tion of the Ku-Klux Klan as opposed to the spirit md its action as against the letter ot the law; lourth, that we continue to discharge ail CTN- various duties of life, social, commercial, political and otherwise, as If no such organiza? tion existed. Resolved, That we, the people assembled, in order to prevent further violation ot law, do urgently call upon Governor Scott to take such steps aa ne is In duty bound to take which will put a stop to the operations o? this unlawful organization. That if the State Gov? ernment reluse to take such preventive steps, that we as a people then call upon the Nation? al Government. That when, lt ever, we shall have appealed in vain to all peaceable and quiet modes of defence and protectlun, that then we defend our sacred rights In the man? ner customary among men and approved of by the Almighty. Resolved, That these resolutions be publish? ed in the Orungeburg News, and that a copy atabe forwarded to Governor Scott by the chain ' man of this meeting. Jr To read these resolutions, one at a distan*,* like Scott or Grant, or any one else who didn't k want to know, or who did not really know any better, would suppose that on some very late occasion this dreadful body of men called f. E. K.'s had charged through this quiet town, slaying men, women and children, burning up and frying and torturing innocent babes and helpless old grannies, and tarring and feathering and mutilating and hanging, and grinding up to powder and blowirg O?ri'o. nitro-glycerine every Radical who shd^Bcis scared nose out of a public office. BtHsyoajfl are nearer than those big fellows I mentioned*, above, and can understand tbe truth when you are told it; and I am here, and / teas here, 1 and I tell you there ls not one pai ticle of truth in anything you hear about outrages and the , like. I tell you the tale as lt was told me by ? my neighbor, who saw ali and ought to know. -i, THE TRUTH ABOUT THE KU-KLUX RAID. My neighbor says that some week or ten days since he saw about one hundred or one i hundred and City men (numbers guessed at) on horses, riding by his house on Hain street (time about midnight, or little after.) Horses : were covered with blankets, and the men had i some white covering over the caps. There i was no noise or disturbance of any kind what- i ever. No arms that he could see. No word ; was spoken that he heard. They rode ?Uently ? along, passed his house, and disappeared from < sight. Now what did these mysterious beings i do ! What act did this unholy and unlawful i organization perform ? Why. in the morning, 1 a notice was discovers d posted on the Post- I office, one on the door ot the clerk's office, < and a third on a telegraph pole. It wah also i discovered that the postmaster was safe and i uninjured, the clerk enjoying good health, and < the telegraph pole without a single mark of I Injury. This is everything that thus far we t have learned was the sum and substance of 1 the night's performance of this nefarious and i unlawlul Institution. 1 THE KL' KLUX PROCLAMATION'. What do yon suppose these notices contain- I ed ? They amounted simply to this: The its- . cab throughout the community were gently c reminded that their rascality was getting e fmonotonous; that dishonest office-holders ana " Sieving and incompetent and Inefficient of- ? ce-holders, and cotton purchasers In the | ??night, time, and plunderers and villains gene- c nr?ly,had better keep a weather-eye well open- ? ed, for If they continued with their "cussed- , ness" the climate might prove unhealthy for t further residence." They also intimated, in ? tolerably strong terms,that If the laws failed to , redress honest citizens the writers might take I a notion to adjudicate all these little difflcul- ? ties the!n<?elves. They also Informed the col- ? ored people who were disposed to do what , was right and lair, and who never belonged to I tbi thieving crowd, or having belonged bad 5 seirn the errors of their ways ana tefl the I party:to unite with them in putting down the ; ?listing vlllany ? It was really an Interesting document, [ and full of instruction and good sound sense i It read well. But I was not struck with the r spelling. And I am by no means favorably , impressed with the attainments of that se ere'- r tary. I don't think he shells at all well. Well, ? that's ail of lt. Now, where is there anything ; so devilish about this to call for "arms and the \ man," or even a pocket knife ? NOBODY SCARED OR HURT. t Where was there anything to scare a fellow? J If any one was scared, "my lord, this argues < conscience." But I didn't see any one who J .confessed to being "frit." I did hear that the 1 P. M., who ls a Northern man, and may have 1 bad other reasons, was offering to sell out below cost and at a heavy sacrifice. Why, I j don't know. The K. K.'s, according to their doctrines, can't have anything against him, ] for he ls the best P. M. we have had here since - my time, and deservedly enjoys the respect of J the community. WHAT THE RADICAL OFFICIALS SAID. The clerk of the court, on whose door the l third notice was posted, said he was not | scared, and. to show fiat he was not, and that i lie actually was favorably disposed to the i whole thing, as a pubic officer, he wrote "ap- c proved," with his signature below with the ? magic C. C. P. alter lt, affixed his official l ?eal, and filed away the document among the ? Skcords. The local trial justice was not scared, i aihat I know, because he told me so. I heard i ?Hm Bay so confidently, and he ought to know, ] ^and I heard him say that while ne did not re- i pudiate his Republican doctrines lu the ab- , stract. he meant to quit a party composed of such d-d infernal villains, and he agreed with the K. Ks. This occurred only on the morning the notices were discovered. So you see he trftw what he was saying. Here, then, were three officials-not one frightened even. Who was scared? Why even Joseph Larkins, who is i a colored gentleman of great respectability I i and distinction here, who superintends every 11 Radical meeting-without whose approval to ? I TUE RECENT RADICAL MEETING AND TUE "KV-KLtX" RAID. An Interesting ?nd Trustworthy Account. seek office would be Tain-who wears a beaver and tights, and carries a cane, who attends the trial Justice's court as regularly as the justice himself, and who declares his object in so doing is to superintend and see thai every? thing is done fairly-even Joseph Larkins did not hesitate to pronounce these manifes? toes "just the thing." "I go In for that;" "that's the right thing," said Joseph Larkins, Esa. So that no one was hurt, no one was scared, unless it be those who are looking for punishment for something they know they de? serve, "who fear each bush an officer." But they keep their scare in, and did keep it con? cealed until this call came out and the meet? ing was had. what this meeting and these resolutions will accomplish you can judge for yourself. I don't see any need for Governor Scott's help; still less for United States troops. It Scott will keep convicts in the penitentiary when sent there by the law, or will allow convicts to be hanged when sentenced hy the law, then the law will prove strong enough to take care of the citizens, and the K. K.'s will ride about no more. I don't know what else this meeting did. I am run out. I believe they did noth? ing. But somebody broke into the clerk's office and tried to force his safe the night be? fore the meeting; and I learn that last night, after meeting, parties broke Into Rich's store, and others into a colored man's here, (who ls a deserving and industrious citizen.) robbing both, and beating the latter; and I have seen no one yet who ascribes either of the three acts to the K. K. E. party. WTPET. P. 8. Eventful week. Auditor pitcl-ed into and pounded ex-treasurer of county, N. B. Town council fined auditor ten dollars. Auditor wishes he had taken out more tor that price.

At a time like the present, when Socialism, Fourlerlsm, Communism, and many other "Isms" are In vogue, professing to furnish remedies for the lils which afflict mankind, the world ls quite opportunely favored with a comprehensive solvent for all earthly difficul? ties in a pleasant little volume-a kind of cross between Peter Wilkins and Gulliver's Travels-which has just made Its appearance under the title of "The Coming Race." In lt the difficult subject of Woman's Rights ls dealt with in a manner which will puzzle Mr. Tllton and Miss Anthony to dispose of. So will its treatment of the equally difficult subject of the rights of labor astonish the trade unions and the organizations ot' employers. It was a for? tunate acclu^r t which revealed the true reme? dies for these and all other human troubles. A mining engineer, a friend of the author of the book, in exploring a very deep mine, sud? denly saw a bright ligh t at a considerable depth below the lowest gallery, and resolved to as? certain what lt was. Accompanied by the author, he descended by means of a rope, but lost his Ufe In so doing. The author, more fortunate, reached a firm foundation, and be? held a vast region of beautiful country, light? ed by lamps as far as the eye could see. Nar? rowly escaping being devoured by a hideous animal, he proceeded to explore this new country. He found it inhabited by a red race of beings, having human forms, but of larger proportions than mortals, with a terrible ex? pression of power in their faces (which re? sembled that of the Sphinx) blended with remarkable sweetness and gentleness. A superior race altogether, but it ls a vexed question among them whether they are the perfect type of the Frog, or whether ute Frog ls the highest development of them? selves. They originally Inhabited the outer crust ef the earth, and In those days they had kings, statesmen, warriors, poets, and so on, like the poor deluded nations now occupying their place; but in one of those terrible convul? sions of the planet which occurred many thousands of years ago, they were precipitated Into a subterranean region of darkness. Their first efforts were to obtain light by artificial means, and alter a time they discovered petro? leum and gas, which fully answered their pur? pose. Then they studied their new atmos? ph?re and discovered "vrll" or atmospheric magnetism, which enabled them to do almost as tney pleased with nature, by forcing her Beere ta from her; they could blast rock with the touch ol a wand, and destroy fifty' thousand lives by a Sash of the new substance. The consequence of this was that .there were no wars among them, and. of course, no soldiers; they were thenceforth emanci? pated from all taxes (such as are levied on earth) for the maintenance of standing armies and navies. They then devoted themselves to the study of nature, and how to promote the happiness of each other, and they have ever since adhered to this practice. All selisii con? sid?rations being considered disgraceful, there are no politicians among them. Each commu? nity ls governed by a magistrate, elected for life;but it rarely happens that any one can be In? duced to hold the office when old age comes sn. There are no honors or emoluments at? tached to it, so that nobody ls anxious to bold it. But as there are no arduous duties to per (brm, it ls filled irom a sense of rectitude. Drlme being unknown on account of the gen? ital care of each one for the other, lhere are so lawyers, no pollcf. no prisons and no courts. 3ivll disputes are referred to the arbitration of rienda. Life ls never taken for lood or for iport. Every one is trained to the use of the 'vril" and the Btudy of nature-hence there are io doctors. Education ls regulated by the Col eges of Sages, mainly composed of women o whom the training ol children up to the ige of marriage ls confided. Inconsequence >t their superior quickness of perception, vomen take the lead in everything, and, by lint of ages of study and practice of the arts, (specially that ol flying in the air by means ol irtiflcial wings, they have become much lar ;er and stronger than the males-their aver? ige height being seven feet, while that of the nen is under six. They have the power of kiti? ng their husbands by a touch, and this keeps he latter in admirable order; but no Instance of heir having exercised this power is on record ar several ages. It ls their privilege to select heir husbands, and, when one of them has nade her choice, the male dares not refuse .er; if he does, it ls at the risk ot his life. On he wedding day, the wife takes off her rings and lays them aside lor the rest ol 1er"married life, because she has un lertaken to love, protect and provide for ter husband. By this system perfect do nestle bliss is secured. These people ?ossesa two strange peculiarities; they all be leve In the rellgion,they profess, and practice ill the precepts which their creed Inculcates; ionsequently they have no need of churches ?r ministers. They believe that their ultimate lestlny is to return to this world and supplant ill the races now existing therein. Their prln ?lpal occupations are the raising enough food o support life incomtort, investigating nature, nventing machines for economizing labor, ind passing their time in ease and content nent. Wealth is despised, and the accumula? tion of lt ls forbldaen. They live to the age of >ne hundred years. As for literature, they lave very little, because there have not oc :urred, for thousands of years, any incidents ;o give rise to serious emotions. Speculations n theology and social questions have long since )een extinct; so is poetry, except that which s descriptive of scenery and peacetul lile, ["here are no paintings oi A more modern late than six thousand years ago. And music s performed by means of water. All labor is )ald by tue State, and ls done by children, nevertheless the author, a native of New Eng and, and the son of a statesman, who had >een defeated in an election by his own tailor, lined amid all this happiness for a cigar and a 'lass of toddv; he was also scared by being i3ked in marriage by one ef the strong-mlnd .d gigantic women of "the coming race," but ?e'ult?matelv (not without great difficulty, and it the risk of his life) prevailed on her to let lim off and restore him to earth and all Its jotherations! What an inglorious retreat! But is he the first of the prolific race ot Uto? pian revolutionists who has run away affnght ?d at the realization of his own visions ? A SAY AGE DISTILLER. ST.

THE RULE OF THE BAYONET THE INDEPENDENT PRESS ON MAR? TIAL LAW IN OUR STATE. A Conspicuous Radical Fallare. [From tbe X. Y. Com. Advertiser, Republican.] That there should be any necessity for mar? tial law in South Carolina ls a most telling condemnation of the policy of Federal inter? ference in the interna! affairs ofthat State, and of the malignant influence of carpet-bag gov? ernment. No better evidence is needed to show that the men foisted upon the people by violence or chicanery are as incompetent as they are corrupt. -A Sad and Humiliating Spectacle. [From the New York Sun, Radical.] What a sad and humiliating spectacle have we here. At the best, and taking Grant on his own showing, what a proof does his proposed intervention afford ot the utter Incapacity and worthlessness of the carpet-bag government ot South Carolina. Viewing the case from Grant's own standpoint, to what a dilemma does he reduce us-either to let one of the strongest Republican States in the Union lapse into chaos, or maintain order therein with the bayonet undera law of Congress whose main features are clearly unconstitutional and which clothes the President with the powers of a dictator. But when lt ls remembered that the case is to a large extent a simulated one. and that this use ol unwarranted powers, and this display of the bayonet are mainly to enable the President to thwart the wishes of a ma? jority of the Republican party by obtaining a nomination for another term, not indepen? dent Republicans only, but all law-abldlug people should consider what ls necessary to preserve the liberties ot the country. The Fruits or Negro Rule. [From the NLW York Herald.] Many parts of the South are as peaceful and prosperous as before the war. Why ls lt that ot all the Southern States South Carolina ls re? duced to the humiliating attitude ot chronlo disorder ? Is it because her dominant black population, under her reconstruction system, absolutely rule the State, or are they, with all their vain conceits, so utterly Incompetent and Ignorant that they have brought all these troubles upon the Commonwealth with their "ft.tastlc tricks" in the State administration ? It would seem so; tor surely, with anything like a Just, honest and reasonable administra? tion, the State authorities, black or white, would be able to take care of themselves and their followers in the maintenance o ' law and order even in South Carolina. The Downfall of Republican Govern? ment. [From the Boston Post.] This is what a President In these times can do by authority of Congress; Invade a peacelul State whenever and tor such reasons as he chooses; trample on governors, Judges, legis? latures and courts; drive away political oppo? nents from the ballot-box so that none but bis own creatures may vote, and hold the State wholly as a subjugated province. And this is the downfall ot Republican govern? ment. What the President may do in South Carolina he may do with equal authority in Massachusetts. At the first he will naturally make a flourish of a pretext In order to save appearances, but wuen he has once fairly be? gun to operate his military machine, he will pay little regard to such needless restrictions. We shall, without doubt, have the Federal bayonet in every State that threatens to repu? diate tills usurping Executive next year, and nothing but a change of Congress by the vote of the people will secure the salvation of the Republic from a clean military dictatorship. Poor South Carolina ! [From the Richmond Dispatch ] Poor South Carolina ! fier case cannot be made much worse. She would be glad to be remandad ta.the territorial ooad lt ton-, ?nd Congress has as muon ngnt to remana her to this condition as lt had to pass the Ku-Klux law, under which the President proposes now to act. The territorial government would be infinitely preferable to the rule ot barbarism. It ls far more necessary that that wretched State should be put under territorial govern? ment than lt waa that the District of Colum? bia should be. The Radical party in Congress discovered that with the negro power in that district, there could be no peace nor rest without a change of government* and they did not hesitate to make the change. But South Carolina is not to receive the benefit of any considerate measure of Radicalism. She ls reserved for penalties and punishments-to be exposed dally lu her humiliation, and to re? ceive her allotted stripes-to show the power of the victor, and to strike terror through the land. Well, this relentless war party cannot rule always-nor, let us all devoutly trust, will lt be permitted to rule the country more than for a brief \ eriod. For the 6ake of the coun? try and humanity, its days should be soon ended. . -? ? -? ? 1 ??jffS?l" NEWS FROM WASHINGTON. WASHINGTON, September 6.

A writer In the Atlanta, Ga., Plantation, writing over the signature of "R. A. A.,'' lays : A few weeks ago I saw the announcement )f the sudden death of Mr.'T. S. Nlckerson. the Iarmer proprietor of Nlckerson's Hotel, at Columbia, 8. C.. and more recently In charge )f the Screven House, Savannah. I saw this lews with regret, as he was a warm-hearted, imlable and benevolent man, and his aptitude or his profession was remarkable. I have leard it said that there were more men boru o make good presidents of the United States han there were to be good hotel-keepers. Mr. S'lckerson certainly was one. During the war, ie kept the best house In the Confederate Slates, and although he was known to be a Julonist, yet his uuiform kindness to our sol liers made him very popular. He accumulat? ed an independent fortune, much ol' which vaa invested ia hie hotel. When Sherman vas at Dalton, I happened to be ia Columbia, ind Mr. Nlckerson asked me lt' I thought Sher nan would ever reach Atlanta ? I replied, .Yes." He then said : "Do you think he will get to Columbia V I replied: "If ht- ever passes Kennesaw fountain, he will pweep over the country like he waters of a mill-dam broke loose, and the 'ery point he will make for will be Columbia." At this Mr. Nlckerson looked concerned, and ie asked me, In a very earnest manner, what would advise him to do, lu such an event, laid I : "When Sherman gets here, make friends ol ha mammon of unrighteousness; place your muse, your horses, your wines, and overy hing else that you nave, at lils disposai, and isk Elm to protect you. This ls the only course br you to pursue. This may save you; I know if nothing else." In due time Sherman reached Columbia; the ?tty was sacked aud burned, and Nlckerson, Ike everybody else, lost all he had. After the lurrender at Charlotte, I was returning home, ind in passing through Columbia called on dickerson. He was living in a small house on he outskirts of what was once the city. He ooked haggard, and I may almost say despair ng. After bidding me welcome, he said : .Well, Colonel. I rook your advice. When ?herman got here, I turned over all I had to lim and his staff. I wore myself down in valtlDg on them, and at eight o'clock in the ivening I went to my room and put on my Uppers and threw myself on the bed for a hort nap. I had scarcely composed myself vhen Isaac, whom you knew well as my bll Iard-marker, came rushing Into my room and aid to me : "Mr. Nickerson, you had better ;et Mrs. Nlckerson out of this hotel; they are ;oing to burn this town at nine o'clock !"

"Yes they are," said Isaac, "because I heard ?eneral Sames and the officers say that the ire would commence at 9 o'clock, while I was raiting on them at supper." Nickerson said the boy's manner was so arnest, and his expression so Indicative ot larm, that he rushed down starls, and as he pproached the office, he saw the staff officers xaminlng his horse blankets. "Great leavens, gentlemen, what does this mean?" 'hey sneeringly replied: "We just thought ?re would appropriate these, as you will uot ieed them any more." He then went to Gene al Barnes and begged him to save his house, vhlch he agreed to do, and ordered a detach aentofinen to be In readiness.

Pr?parations for a Raid on Congress The status of the Woman's Rights Agi tat lon-The Question tn all Branches of the Government. [Correspondence of the Baltimore Sun.] WASHINGTON, September 4. The leading isms of the country will make a bold demand upon Congress for recognition as soon as lt assembles, and will send here the foremost advocates ot their theories. Woman's rights, national prohibition of the liquor traffic, and the "recognition of God in the constitu? tion," are all moving advance guards hither ward, and reconnoitering for position. Pro? fessor Taylor Lewis, who leads the movement in favor of a national religion, will make a fly? ing visit here early In the session. A half dozen delegations of prohibitionists have made arrangements to come, and last, though far from least, the advocates of woman's suffrage will maintain here an able and determined lobby throughout the whole of the session. The leaders of this latter movement have j prepared for a vigorous onslaught upon all the branches of the government at once. They claim to have substantially won the executive, as woman's rights are now fully recognized in the executive departments; but the effort In this direction will be to secure the appoint? ment of some woman to a prominent execu? tive position, at least to the headship of a bureau. Upon Congress the main pressure will be brought to bear. The surprising vote in the House of Representatives upon the motion to strike the word "male" out of the section of the District of Columbia bill regulating suf? frage, has unduly excited the hope of the san? guine and Impressible ladles who lead the movement, or has at least given them an op? portunity of impressing uninformed friends of the movement with the notiou that the new doctrine has now a fair chance of being recog? nized by the national government. The case for the courts ls already prepared, and two suits at law for damages have been entered against certain registrars and commis? sioners ot election for refusing to register or allow to vote certain ladles who in May last applied to them for that purpose. The suit against the registrars is brought by Mrs. Sarah J. Spencer, and that against the commission? ers of electlou by Sarah E. Webster. Messrs. Biddle and Miller have been retained as coun? sel for the plaintiffs In these causes, and, by consent of parties, the trial in the Circuit Court has been waived, and the cases are set down tor argument at the coming general term ot the Supreme Court of this District, which begins its term on the 27th Instant. As yet no appearance bas been entered by the defendants. Should the decision there be ad? verse, the cases will be carried at once to the Supreme Court ot the United States, and an effort made to have them advanced on the cal? endar so as to be heard this winter. The argument in favor of the right, which will be urged before the general term, ls sub? stantially this: The fourthteenth amendment declares that "all persons born or naturalized In the United States are subject to the Jurisdic? tion thereof, are citizens of the United States, and of the States wherein they reside." Wo? men being persons, thus become, by birth or naturalization, citizens of the United States and ot the States. In the fourth article of the constitution it ls declared that "the citizens of each State shall be entitled to the rights and Immunities of the citizens of the several States." and the fourteenth amendment for? bids any State to "make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immuni? ties of citizens of the united States." That these constitutional "privileges and Immuni? ties" Include suffrage was decided In the Cir? cuit Court of the District of Columbia many years ago, and, remaining unquestioned to this day, Ls to be regarded as a decided prlncl JJ lu uf cut; Wliub, Wh*t?^.? ialUolon lu <? j OK 1st In this argument, lt ls In substance the one which will be relied upon in the coming argu? ment. There will,.however, be a technical difficul? ty in procuring a decision of any appellate tri? bunal upon these cases as they now stand. As neither the judges nor commissioners of elec? tion entered an appearance in the suit, Judg? ment by default has been taken against them, and the ordinary method of proceeding would be too numerous for a Jury to assess the dam? ages which the ladies had suffered In the de? nial of suffrage alleged In their declaration. The case having been certified to the general term under these circumstances, lt ls difficult to see how that court can make any decision at all In the case, and without a decision of the district general term lt will be impossible to carry the case to the Supreme Court of the United States. Legal acumen may, however, discover an unbeaten path for this purpose. While the question ls bet?re the Executive, Congress, or the Supreme Court, a grand de? monstration will be made by a Woman's. Bights Convention, which will meet on the luth of January at the Young Men's Christian Association building. Mrs. Victoria Woodhull will keep open house during the whole winter, and thus make a social and political centre, from whence will radiate the ideas that vivify Uit!\rjovement, and where will be arranged the oemoustratlons thal will, the sanguine among Its friends believe, eventuate In Its success. It is expected that Miss Anthony, Mrs. Bee? cher Hooker, Mrs. Paulina Wright, Ernestine L. Rose, Mary Jaslin Gage, Miss Cozzens, and others, will be here during no inconsiderable portion of-.the time, while the active support ot Senator'Carpenter, General Butler, Geo. W. Julian} and others, is relied upon to support the movement. CRIME Bf THE STATE. Blore Incendiarism. The Marlon 8tar says : "We learn that a barn beajjpgtng to Mr. W. J. Wilder, ot this district, aa destroyed by dre on Saturday night lae$ It contained about 3000 pounds of fodder, a saddle, ?kc, which were destroy? ed.

The Klngstree Star says : "We saw a negro yesterday morning that was ku-kluxed at Salters' Denot on Friday night last. Caesar Timmons, a' negro, shot Ellis Knight, another negro. Ellis says he was shot in the dark, and that thirteen shot took effect In his thigh. He did not appear to be".dlsabled, but his pants were bloody. Guns and ammunition are cheap, law ts scarce, and objects to be shot are plentiful. Let us have t>eace." Shot At. The Phoenix of yesterday says : "A few nights ago, as Mr. Hornsby, who resides sev? eral miles above Columbia, arrived in the vicinity of Cane Creek bridge, he saw a fox and emptied his revolver at the animal. He had only passed a few rods farther, when an unknown Individual presented a pistol at him and exploded a cap. AS his pistol was empty, Mr H. put spurs to his horse and rapidly moved off. It was In this Immediate vicinity that Mr. Dubard lost his lite several months since." A NOTABLE INAUGURATION. FRANKFORT, September 6. Governor Leslie was inaugurated by Judge Robertson, aged eighty. After the inaugura? tion Judge Robertson resigned the Kentucky chief justiceship. Robertson was supported by two men during the Inaugural. The scene was touching. SMART PIGS.-The Chester Reporter Bays: "Mr. Jerome B. Stokes tells us or a very strange discovery he made on his plantation a lew days ago. For some time past, he had noticed a very great diminution in the supply of milk furnished by his cows. On making inquiries into the cause, or the woman who had charge ol the cows, she accounted for it by stating that the milk was sucked from the cows bv a litter of pigs that stayed at night In the same yard in which the cows were kept. This improbable story only fixed deeper in hts mind the suspicion that the woman was using the milk tor her own purposes. She persisting, though, in her story, he went to his cow lot early in the morning, and there he found the cows lying quietly on their sides, and the pigs tug"ini?' away tor their breakfast. Afterwards, when the cows were standing up, he saw the ni"3 running around and under them, jump in?' up and doing all they could to reach the teats These pigs, that had been forced to learn so early the lesson of 'root hog or die,' had lost their maternal progenitor at an early day. If any county has any smarter pigs than these, trot'em out." NEW TO SK CZTT FINANCES.
