The Appointment of Green as Deputy
-Alleged Political Significance of
Connolly's Action.
The complications in the finance department
cf New York City increase and multiply.
Comptroller Connolly has distinctly refused to
recognize the authority of the Mayor to declare
his office vacant, and appeals to the supreme
power, the public sentiment of the people of
"New York, to support bim in his position.
.General McClellan, after some hours or inde?
cision, and much consultation with his friends,
has declined to accept the office. To give
?Sect to his action against Comptroller Con?
nolly, the Mayor has notified all the depart?
ments that he will not recognize any of the
official acts of either Connolly or his new depu?
ty. Mr. Andrew H. Green; the consequence is
that all the city Improvements will be stopped
and some four thousand workmen thrown out
of employment. The following correspond?
ence, the purport of which has been briefly
given by telegraph, will be read with Interest: j
Appointment of Air. Green.

have been guided by the advice of gentlemen
whose respectability and prominence eU?vate

.cere regard to the public interest, and to in
sure it against possible sacrifices, and pur- j
suing the authority and phraseology of the I
statute, I hereby designate and authorize you

every duty belonging to the office of comp-j
troller of the City of New York from the time

antagonistic to a legal construction of the I

and I hereby accept such resignation.
I am also advised that when the power of

A. OAKEY HALL,
Mayor of the City ot New York.
To RICHARD B. CONNOLLY, late Comptroller ol I
the City of New York.
Mayor Hall to General Mc Cl lian.
My Dear Sir: The action of Richard B. Con?
nolly in retiring from the discharge of official I
duties for a term ot five months bas created a
vacancy in (he office ot comptroller of the City
of New York, as I am advised and believe.
The public Interests demand that lt should be I
Cled Immediately by some gentleman of ac-1
Ifcowledged ability, not directly connected
with local politics, and whose name commands (
the respect and confidence of the people ol'the I
-City, State and country, as well as ot the finan-1
cial centres In Europe.
The credit of the city has been attacked. It
must be defended and maintained. The ad
ministration of its financial affairs must be
placed beyond even the shadow or suspicion
of intrigue. This is due alike to its creditors
and to our citizens, all of whom have an inter-1
est lt its good name and success, and look for
ward to the early completion of ifs great works
ol improvement now in progress, . with the I
most important of which you have been for a
year post prominently connected. Your ex- j
tended reputation, and your varied experience I
in the execution of public and private trusts of
great magnitude, especially fit you for this po?
sition, and at this time; while your entire free
dom from ali local and political complications
will insure almost unqualified public approval I
of your acceptance of the responsibilities which
belong to it.
I therefore tender you the office ot comp?
troller, and earnestly urge you to accept it.
I am aware that your full retirement from
the Important position you hold in the depart
ment of docks will become a matter of great
regret not only to yourself, but to the depart?
ment and the public yet its operations will be
prometed rather than Impeded by your ac-1
ceptauce; because, while your administration j
of the finances of the city will inure to the j
benefit of the dock Improvements in common I
with ali the other departments, and save all
from 'he danger which now threatens them,
your advice and counsel and supervision must J
.still be extended to whomsoever shall occupy I
your place in that department should you I
cease to hold it.
I am confident your acceptance of th? comp-1
troller8hlp will at once restore that public con?
fidence in the financial administration ot the
city which is absolutely necessary, in my Judg?
ment, to preserve not alone the public credit,
*iu? the public peace.
I ask, therefore, your proirot acceptance.

Mr. tonnollv'n Reply to the Mayor.
Shortly before noon the following letter
was sent to Mayor Hall by Comptroller Con?
nolly:

Hon. A. Oakley Hall, Mayor-Hr DEAR SIB:

My previously announced determination net
at present to retire from official position ia

acts and my own, I ask the support of that su?
preme power, the public sentiment of the citi?
zens ot New York and of the State.
Very respectfully, your obedient servant.

A New Move.
NEW YORK. September 19.
Richard O'Gorman. corporation counsel,
writes another letter to Mayor Hall, saying,
since the decision of Judge Barnard, in Foley
vs. the Mayor and others, in which he gave
guasi judicial sanction to rumors which had
been rife la the city of gross extravagance in
some of the bills presented by various con?
tractors and paid out ot the city fund, it seems
to him proper that the corporation should take
effective legal ?teps to recover these moneys
if sufficient evidence of fraud can be obtain?
ed to sustain the action. He asks for instruc?
tions, and Mayor Hall responds substantially,
leaving the matter in O'Gorman's discretion,
knowing he will perform his duty regard teas
of consequences.

Excitement tn Jeffers sn County-A
Whit.: Man Killed by a Negro-The
Negro Taken Ont a.id Ktllrd- A Com?
pany of t'nlted St> tes Soldiers Sta?
tioned at Barlow.
[From the Aujusti Chronicle, September 20.)
It seems that our neighbors In Jefferson
County are to be the first in this State to ex?
perience to its fullest extent the beauties of
the Kn Klux law. We regret to learn of a
very unfortunate occurrence in thal county.
wh.ch resulted in the death ot two men. and
which bas caused a compauy ot United States
soldiers to be quartered on the county. It
seems that the first act in tbe drama waa the
killing of a white citizen, a respectable young
man. named Joseph Coleman, who lived lu
Jefferson Count}', a few miles away Irom Bar
tow. Mr. Coleman was killed by a negro,
named Butr Pierce, who also lives near the/
place above mentioned. About this killing
there are two stories, each diametrlcall.
opposed to the other. One account say <
that about three weeks ago Mr. Coleman a?<
a party ot men went at night to the hou-?ec '
Pierce for the purpose ot offering him violence!
The negro refused to let them enter the hou?e.\
and as Mr. Coleman attempted to enter the)
window. Pierce shot him deud with his gun.
This is the Radica! version of the artair. The
other account and the one which respectable
gentlemen pronounce the true one. and the
one which the character of the parties show
to be correct, puts the matter In an entirely
different light. * Pierce, who had the well-de?
served reputation of being a turbulent and
dangerous character, had committed some
offence, and a magistrate had issued a warraut
for hts arrest. Mr. Coleman and lils compan?
ions were constituted a posse to execute the
warrant, as the negro's reputation led them to
expect resistance, and they went to his house
at night. When they arrived there Pierce re?
fused to be arrested, and when Mr. Coleman
attempted to perlorm his duty shot him down
like a dog. Alter the death of Coleman, the
negro continued to resist arrest, and the posse
Anally left the place with their dead comrade.
Aller the murder had been committed Pierce
became alarmed
AND FLED THE CO- KTRY.
He succeeded in making his escape, and went
directly to Atlanta, where, we have no doubt,
be visited the Executive mansion and poured
his harrowing tale into his bovlnity's ear.
After staying some time In Atlantahe again
started on his travels, and went to Washing?
ton City to consult the Federal authorities
upon this "fearful Ku-Klux outrage." From
Washington he went to New York, where be
stayed some time. In Washington he procur?
ed assistance and came back to his home last
Friday night, bringing with him a guard of
three United Slates soldiers, procured, we be?
lieve, from the garrison at Atlanta. Having
murdered an officer of the law In the most
cruel and cold-blooded manner, the govern?
ment sent him back with bayonets to brave an
outraged community. The soldiers accompa?
nied him to bis home and garrisoned his
house until Saturday, when the civil authori?
ties Issued a warrant for his arrest upon the
charge of murder. The warrant was executed
and
PIERCE TAKEN INTO CUSTODY,
to await a preliminary examination. On Sat?
urday night, while Pierce was under the
charge of an officer, a party of disguised men
suddenly appeared upon the scene and seized
and secured the officer before he could offer
any resistance. A cart and harness cu the
place were then taken and a mule hitched to
the vehicle. The negro was tied and put in
the cart and carried away by the party. What
became of the prisoner after this cad onlv be
conjectured. It ls believed, however, that he
received summary punishment for ihe murder
of j oung Coleman. The cart came back to the
place next morning, but none ot the party of
the previous night with it. In the meantime
it is said thai
THE THREE SOLDIERS "
furnished by the government came to the cou
clusion that they had belter cet out of that
neighborhood as soon aa possible, and they
beat a rapid retreat to the railroad and to At?
lanta. The soldiers must have given an alarm?
ing report al headquarters, for on Monday
evening the train brought down a captain and
twenty-six men to Barlow. At last accounts
the soldiers were quartered near the depot,
but had taken no action. It is reported that
they have instructions to arrest a number ol
the citizens living in the vicinity of Barlow,
and there is a ?oo? deal of excitement in the
neighborhood.

-Mr. Robert McKenzie, of Marion, died a
few days ago.
-The Marion Crescent says : '-Mr. John
Blackman, an inoffensive white man. was. on
Saturday last, stabbed in the back by one Ste?
phen Turner. From what we learn Mr. Black?
man was not disturbing any one, but was
stabbed by Turner before he had any warning
of what was to come. Turner has been arrest?
ed and is in jail."
-It is stated that the telegraph poles have
been set Irom Anderson to Walhalla, but owing
to some misunde" landing or want of arrange?
ment, the line was not contracted for by Pat?

only extends from Walhalla tc Auderson, leav?
ing a break between the last named place and
Belton, along the line of the Greenville and

that the Anderson people will be obliged to re?

DEAS SIR-This morning's Republican pub?
lishes a letter from S. T. Poiuier. of Spartan
.imggi S? CT ia regard to Senator Scott's recent
letter urging that martial law be declared. I
write. Mr. Editor, to let your readers know
ic'iO this man ls who says ..martial law lu the
only remedy for these troubles." Just at the
close of the* war Mr. P. came to Spartanburg,
announcing that he was a member ot Sher?
man's army. There were no United States
troops within fifty miles ol the place then, yet ]
he lived there as satelyasthe "grand cyclops"
himself could.
When Johnson and Congress disagreed,
Pointer, who had been keeping very quiet, an?
nounced I hat lie was a Democrat, and was soon
appointed postmaster. He made Democratic
speeches, was a member of the Conservative
committee, and tried hard to get nominated
by thc Democrats lor Congress. When Grant
was elected he was kicked out of the postoffice
to make room for a scalawag; Ina few months
ne doffed his Democratic garb, and is note
Scott's chief cook In the place where "Kti

been in command o? a gang when the most bru?
tal outrages were committed by Hiern. The Ku

FOREIOX MAIL, GLEANINGS.
-The tone of the French and German press
is as bitter towards each other as during the
war. The German papers talk of French van
Hy, greed, blindness, insanity, ?fcc, and advo
cate a reoccupation of the abandoned provi
ces as a Just punishment and as a matter
course. The French press responds to this by
taunts and threats of vengeance and reprisal
when France shall be again prenared to take
the field against Germany.
-The Princess Louise ls making herseli
popular at her Highland home. The Dnke
her father-in-law, summoned his tenants
dance in the same pavilion and to the music
of the same band which he provided for
guests of higher rank, who came In kilt and
bonnet. The London chroniclers recount with
visible awe how the Princess danced with on
ot the small farmers of the estate, turning and
twisting. Jerking and trotting and hopping
through all the eccentricities of the frenzied
Highland reel, and tow she went down the
middle between a hundred couples in the
country dance, amid shouting and stamping
and shrieking that rn&de the rafters ring.
-That even princes are not wholly exempt
from the discomforts ind annoyances Insepa
rabie from life in this disagreeable world,
seen in the recent tour of tbe Prince and Pri
cess ot Wales to Obernmmergau. It wan
something new-a prospect of sensation and
novelty-to these jaded dwellers In palaces
to look forward to seeing the drama of the
Passion rendered by the famous Mair and his
fellow-actors; and rn Schwalbach and Hom
bourg were deserted by the royal pair for the
Bavarian Tyrol. They did not, however, give
sufficient notice of their coming; and when
they at last reached the quaint old mountai
village, they were net by the same refral
that has di.-gusfed no nany of our own ton
Isis, In the months of bland, self-satisfied land
lords, "So room." So, blue-blooded though
they were, the Prince and Princess were fal
to put up with the scant accommodations of
woodcutter's hut.
-It ls rather a curious circumstance thai Mr
Krupp, of breach-loading rifle cannon celebri
ty, should have taken up his temporary abode
ai Torquay. England, contemporaneously with
Louis Napoleon. No doubt they will find each
other interesting company. Torquay, which
thirty years ago was itlle more than ? fishing
village, now has some twenty thousand resl

a focus of fashion, 'x ls especially patronized
by Russian royaltiei beating a retreat from
Siberian winter biais, and last year the rich
American colony, drven from Paris, took n
its abode there, greaty to the satisfaction of th
Torquay county-jumrars. The scenery ls simply
delicious, lovely waits and drives abounding
on ail sides. Nearly the whole place belongs
to two families, th; Palks and the Carys

an uncompleted martel to us, sinks Into the
most commonplace insgnlficance tn compari
son. Eight miles havt been bored through,
not Mont Cenls Itself, but one ol the lower
mountains of the Mint Cents range; and
a Journey which ised to take five or
six hours may now be accomplished in

eller who used to go over the old pass, sixteen

-The story of the battle of Dorking does not
snipass, lu its account of wonderful blunder?
ing*, the ludicrous reality of the autumn
maiceuvres of the British army. The First
Lift Guards are the victims of the most seri?
ous Joke. This fine cavalry regiment lett
Wlnlsor for Aldershot, and reached palely
ther encampment OP. Cove Common. Night
carmon, a time when the gentlemen riders
usudly send their studs to stable In care ot
theil grooms. But, no stable existing on Cove
Comoon, each cavalry picketed lus horse In
the ny le whose theory he had learned; when
suddenly a disturbing element, some say two
quarrelling dogs, and others a flock of geese,
stampeded the whole regiment of 300
hursts, and away they went, with saddle?
cloth! and picket-stakes, over the country. The
animus rushed In all directions, mad with
fright, staked themselves, drowned them?
selves, or spoiled themselves by racing at top
speed over fifteen miles ot country. Prince
Arthur was wiih this regiment. Then there
was tie Tenth Hussars, who have gained dis?
till ct bu by the precautions they have taken to
render themselves comfortable during the
campugn. They take with them a movable
cantein, a carriage ten feet long and five feet
wide, with a roof, and fitted up with three oak
vats fer beer, "a large supply of wines, spirits,
and cooling drinks," baking apparatus, and
places for 'storing 430 two-pound loaves of
bread It la Jocularly recommended that the
whole contrivance be iron-plated, so that lt
may be safe under fire.
-The Illness of Queen Victoria, which atone
time wis, according to the Court physician
himself, serious, ls a reminder of the condition
In which England would be left In the event of
her abrupt departure from the throne and the
world. These are ominous times among our
British cousins; there are riotings at Dublin,
hostile "demonstrations" In London, and a
wide sphere of discontent throughout the king?
dom. Add to this very uneasy state of the pub?
lic mind the universal unpopular.ty ol' the
Prince of Wale?, whom current gossip Invests
with almost every vice and dissipation in the
calendar, and ll is clear that bis Royal Highness'
paih to the vacant throne might not be so clear
of obslrucilon as precedent would warrant him
In expecting. There is a very considerable pro?
portion ol the British people who are heartily
sick ol royalty and would be relieved to see lt
abolished; but the time U not yet ripe for a
successful revolution to that end. The Hon.
Auberon Herbert, brother ol the proud and
Intensely Tory Earl ol Carnarvon, and himself
an Intense Radical, virtually avowed the other
day, io his constituents, that while he and his
party would not favor a movement to disturb
the royal lady who now sits on ihe throne,
they would resist the succession of the disso?
lute and obstinate Wales until the nation had
spoken its mind in the matter. The sudden
demise ot her substantial Majesty would put
this party In an awkward quandary, while it
might be a signal tor a determined uprising of
the mass of Hs rank and file, the London
Reds.
-The ex-Emperor Napoleon evidently does
not feel very keenly the heart-sickness which
ls supposed to attend the deferring ol hope;
for he has abandoned the habit of seclusion at
Cbiselhurst which he at first assumed, and is
perambulating the country as eayly and smil?
ingly as if empires were not and ainblllon were 1
a los", vice. He appears suddenly at rustic
gatherings in a straw hat and his pockeU well
stuffed with cigarettes, sits him by the modest
tables and feasts genially with the yeomen of
Britain, bowing gracelully at their lusty cheers
and gallantly passing the homely dishes among
the maidens. Amaryllis ls wild with delight,
and forthwith buys a wood-cut of his Majesty,
which she hangs In that temple of rustic Inno?
cence and virtue, her bedroom. The next we
hear ot the "'bloody tyrant," as the Reds are
pleased to call this rather stout and very pleas?
ant-laced old gentleman, he ls laking a prome?
nade, with the ex-Empress on his arm,
through the lovely Town of Rochester, pes?
tered somewhat by laced sheriffs and cocked
hatted beadles, who persist in paying him
ostentatious honors, but very amiably acknowl?
edging the welcome whlcn the people give
him ill along the irregular, gable-adorned old
streets. Then he takes a steamboat ride, sit?
ting cr?38-legged on deck, and consum?
ing numberless cigarettes, and familiarly
chatting with any one who is ambitious to re?
member having spoken to an Emperor. It is,
perhaps, a question with him whether, alter
all, this ls not a pleasanter life than the fever?
ish one which he has led so long at the Tulle

A REMARKABLE LETTER.
The Wholesale Fabrications of a Man
chanssen Correspondent.
[From the Winnsboro* News, September 19.]
In the Columbia Union, of the 16th instant,
we And the tallowing letter:
"WINNSBORO'. September 15.
"To the Editor of rte Daily Union:
"Thia will intorm you mat the Ku-Klux are
still on the war path In this county. On Mon?
day night, the 4rh Instant, the house of George
Pic kens, an honest and Industrious colored
DUD, who lives on the place of Dr. Jeff. Liles,
about sixteen miles northwest ot thh place,
was visited by a- band of disguised men, be?
tween the hours of 10 and ll o'cloek. The
band dismounted and fired about twenty shots,
the most of which went through the noose.
"Plckens has a fine growing crop, and will
be compelled to abandon it. He ls now in
this place making efforts to remove his family
here. He can give no cause for this visit of I
night riders, except that he ia a Republican.
"There was also a band of Ku-Klux out near
Ridgeway one night last week, but they com?
mitted no extraordinary excesses. X."*
Our attention has been called to this re?
markable letter, not only on account of the
falsehoods and inaccuracies contained In it.
but also as displaying a deliberate attempt to
wilfully misrepresent the condition of affairs
In this county. In regard to the contents of
the letter, we have this much to say In reply:
According to the statement ol' George Plckens
himself, a party of not more than three or
lour men did visit his house, but whether or
not they were disguised he himself does not
know. They did not dismount, nor were
twenty shots fired into his house. We make
{his statement upon the faith of what he re?
ported to a gentleman of this town.
* . ? ? * *
The report of the appearance of Ku-Klux at
Ridgeway ?oe pronounce infamously false,
and unless the Union correspondent can fur?
nish good grounds tor his statement, he stands
guilty of a base Ile in the estimation of all
right-minded people.
* ? ? * # ?
Why is not the Union correspondent prompt
in reporting all outrages in this county, such
as barn-burning, cattle-stealing, house-break?
ing, murders, and a host of other crimes that
are ot dally occurrence In our midst ? He
does not, because the perpetrators are his
friends and political allies, and sit with him in
secret conclave, plotting injury and harm to
his own race. But let one of the "cullerd
"brethren" be visited by some private enemy
and have a few pistol shots fired at his house,
and straightway we see in the "Munchausen
Organ" of modern times' a letter from "Our
Winnsboro' Correspondent,'' detailing a horri?
ble Ku-Klux outrage in Fairfield County.
Every affair In which the "poor" negro ls the
victim, ls forthwith reported as the work of
the bloody Ku-Klux.
We Intend to expose and denounce every at?
tempt that is made, calculated to convey a
false impression of the condition of our sec
don of the State. Our county ls as quiet as
any in the State, and entirely free from any?
thing of the nature of Ku-Kluxism, the Union
correspondent to the contrary notwithstand

SPARKS FROM THE WIRES.
-The weather throughout Emrland is fair
and favorable for crops.
-A fire at Virginia City, Nevada, has de?
stroyed $750,000 worth ol' property.
-Count Conti, the Italian minister at Wash?
ington, is the third commissioner under the
Washington treaty.
-It ts conceded that the majority of the new
Mexican Congress ts in favor of Juarez. There
are no signs of a revolution.
-Ihe English labor strikes continue, and a
large number of sympathetic meetings have
been held in the cities of England.
-A requiem mas* was celebrated yesterday
In New York for the souls of the Pom ideal
Zouaves who died a year ago defending Rome.
-Dr. McGavertck and Mr. Thad. Ford, two
well known planters of Shawneetown, Ark.,
were both mortally wounded, yesterday. In
shooting affray. Their dispute waa about a
hog.
-Smal.'-pox continues at Lowell, Mass., and
there are numerous fatal cases. A temporary
hospital has been erected. A red flag by day
and a red light by night is med to designate
Infected places.
-Lieutenant Treuno, of the Seventeenth in?
fantry, has been cashiered and sentenced to
the penitentiary for five years, for embezzling
the public funds and gambling while he had
the same in charge.
-The "splendid" stud of the late Emperor j
Napoleon, which was recently sold at auction
in Paris, did not bring a very high price, at
least not when compared with what la here
frequently paid tor fine horses. But probably
the fact of the horses having belonged to and
served the ex-Emperor rather detracted from
than added to their value. The whole stable,
consisting ot sixteen horse?,brought only $7808;
an average of $488, which is not a large eum
for a stud fit for an Emperor's use. The high?
est bid tor any ningle horse was $810, and Tor
a pair $1160. The French papers consider
these as "excellent" prices; but If they were a
lair valuation ot the horse?, then there are
more than a thousand citizens In the United
States who own a finer and more valuable
collection ot horseflesh than did the late Em?
peror of the French.
