WHAT NEXT?-The Columbia Union says that United States District Attorney Corbin, and Attorney-General Akerman, of the United States, have gone up the Greenville Boad with Colonel Merrill for the purpose of investigating Ku-Klux affairs atYorkvllle. Mr. Akerman having finished up bis work In North Carolina, proposes to give this poor State a dose. And this pettifogging scalawag is Attorney-General of m United States. HA! HA ?-The Columbia Phoenix says : "We are informed that ex Representative H?ge, accompanied by representative R. B. Elliott, visited the Presidential mansion, several days ago, with reference to a change in the United States marshalshlp for South Carolina. But the Radical President evinced no disposition to conciliate his colored brother; Intimated pretiy broadly that he. would not be dictated to, and f^^sea, as 1B stated, gave the representative the ^^otd shoulder. The present incumbent, it is presumed, Is to be retained." ONE MORE REPENTANT.-The handsome bug? gy blanket, stolen a lew days ago lrom the back office cf a physician, was recovered yes? terday, tad proved to have been stolen by the galvanized thief Robert Wickels, who bad been arrested by Officers Burke and Davis on sus? picion. Wickels was promised bi? freedom on ?i's confessing where the blanket was, and catching at this delusive straw, he told how he bad stolen it from the office and where he had secreted lt. The blanket was soon found, and Wickels was brought belore Trial Justice Ma? grath, who having found him guilty oi the lar? ceny, sent him to Sheriff Mackey's Hotel lor thirty days. _ THE GEORGIA HOME.-The annual statement of this Southern Insurance company, of Co? lumbus, Ga., will be found In another column, and affords a gratifying proof of Its prosperity. THB capital of the company amounts to $350, OOO, and its assets on the first day ol January last to $494,959 55. With this capital during thft past year they have paid from their re? ceipts, besides their disbursements, $50,000 In dividends, and redeemed within a iracdlon of | ?20,000 of their scrip. The assets of the com? pany consist of railroad bonds and stocks, and real estate, assessed at their market value. The premiums show a steady increase for the past five years, and since 'GC have more than trebled In amount. The affairs of i the company have evidently been well con? ducted. J^- ROYALTY IN TROUBLE-Last evening about 8 o'clock, a colored man, rejoicing in the aris? tocratic tide ot Prince Albert, entered the store ot Mr. Schroder, at the corner of Elog street and South Bay, considerably the worse lrom his recent absorption of mean whiskey. The Prince, Imperiously drunk, soon became engaged In high words with a Democratic citi? zen, named William Brown, and resenting certain words of the latter asan aspersion upon his royal dignity, seized a large' knife, useoTfor slicing bacon, and made^for Bro .m. The falter saw the knife, and intent upon sav? ing nia bacon, cangbt the advancing Prince in his arms, and in the true burlesque style, yelled for the police. Clubs and Stars soon aiade their appearance, and the struggTtag Prince was led away to the Guardhouse. He was duly immersed In a cell, and will make a sober appearance before the Mayor this morn? ing. _ SAD ACCIDENT-Between 12 andi o'clock yesterday Master Willie Cbrletzberg, son of ? Mr. J. R. Cbrletzberg, while climbing on a shed at the back of Messrs. Adams A Damon's establishment, in Broad street, lost his footing and fell over Into the yard at (be back of the Bank of the State building. The shed was about twelve feet high, and the boy fell on the bricks with which the yard is paved. A number of persons ran to his assistance, and having taken him up, his right wrist was found to be dislocated and fractured, and bis head and face badly bruised. He was taken home, and, under the care of a skilful sur? geon, Is doing well. The boy is an intelligent lad of about ten years of age, and ls gifted with a peculiar talent of drawing and cutting admirable] likenesses on paper. Bis genial, merry disposition made him an universal fa? vorite, and in his misfortune bis family have many cordial sympathizers. THE INSURANCE COMPANIES.-Captain S. Y. Tupper received l'ie following satisfactory id? eograms yesterday afternoon from companies which he represerts : FROM THE PHOENIX, OF NEW TOR*. NEW YOHK, October ll, 1871. To S. T.

It is to come at the full ol the moon thiB month. The city registrar reports the receipt of two certificates of death from yellow fever in the twenty-four hours ending at noon yesterday. One was a child, who died on the 9th, and the other was a young German woman, who died on the 10th. WEDNESDAY'S RE Pt RT. OFFICE OF BOARD OF HEALTH, CHARLESTON, October ll. 1871,12 M. Two (2) certificates of death from yellow fever received since last report. ROBERT LEBBY, M. D., City Registrar. Besides the above, the following certificates have been received since last report : One for congestion of liver, dated October 8. One for lockjaw, dated October 9. One for dysentery, dated October 9. One for consumption, dated October 9. One for remittent bilious fever, dated Octo? ber 9. One for consumption, dated October 10. One for convulsions, dated October 10. THE OAKLEY MURDER. Another of tht .Murderers Arrested-Fur? ther Developments. The full details of this horrid deed were given in THE NEWS of yesterday, as related by the prisoner, Anthony Thompson, himself, and the statements there made are still main? tained by Thompson to be the true story. In the subsequent developments, however, the statement conflicts considerably with that of another prisoner. As soon as the details of the murder and the names ol the parties suspected were published yesterday morning, Ran Balden, one of the principals In Thompson's statement, came lo the depot of the Northeastern Railroad and SURRENDERED HIMSELF to Mr. Robinson, the agent in this city. Ran alleged that he saw the charges against him, and, knowing that he was Innocent, had sur? rendered himself. He was sent down to the Detective office and there repeated his asser lions ol bis not having anything to do with the murder. Ran is an intelligent negro, speaks rapidly, and chewed tobacco nervously during the time he was questioned concerning the affair. RAN'S STATEMENT li that he is employed as a teamster at the At lantlc Phosphate works, and was t?tere during the time the murder was committed and all next day (Sunday.) On Monday he came to town, and at Mr. Buchheit'a. corner ot Line and Meeting streets, he met Sam White, (who according to Thompson's statement, went into the house with Ran and murdered Mr. Fidea.) Sam bad been drinking and seemed fiuBh, and insisted on Rana keeping him company. Ran says be started from the works to the city to take the Northeastern train, on Monday eve ning, for Gourdin's to see his sick mother. Sam Insisted that he was going up too, and with Thompson the party got on the train. On the way Ran and Sam wr e seated together, TALKING LIKE FRIENDS on different malters. When the train arrived at Oakley, Thompson, who was seated some distance from the two others, was arrested by some men, upon seeing which Sam leaped from the car and took to the woods. Ran went on to Gourdin's, and after seeing his mother, returned to the city next day. Yes? terday he heard all about the murder in THE NEWS, and delivered hlmsell up. Ran told his story with an air of truth, and when told that Thompson bad differed so much in his account, remarked that the latter was crazy. He offered to produce PROOFS OF HIS INNOCENCE, and, accompanied by Officer Hord, be pro? ceeded to the atlantic Phosphate Works, where he procured certificates and affidavits from several persons, among them the engi? neer and sulphur burners at the works. These state that they saw Ran Balden at the works on Saturday night (the night of the murder) between 8 and 9 o'clock attending to his mules, and that he was there at work early next morning as usual. It'would thus seem impossible that Ran could have been one of the murderers who entered the house. Sam White, the other ruffian, came down to the city, and seems to have been ENJOTINQ TUE FRUITS OF HIS CRIME. He spent, it seems Sunday and Monday in the city, and after the disagreeable Intrusion of the constables in the cars at Oakley on Mon? day night, and his hasty flight into the woods, again made his way to the city. On Tuesday Dight White put up at a boarding house In I Felix street, near Cannon, and slept with a j colored boy named CuplJ, who reported the fact yesterday to Officer Thomas Fosberry, of the coroner's office. He said further that White paid his way like a lord, and made pur? chases of clothes, shoes, pistols and other arti cles freely. Cupid brought White's thing from the depot, and for these services White told him he could take the OIL-SKIN CARPETBAG among his luggage. Officer Fosberry went to Cupid's house, and getting hold of the carpet bag made an examination of its contents. He lound two vests, one satin and the other cassi mere; a pair ot shoes, some broken candy, to. bacco and other articles Just bought. The vests are a little worn, and correspond to the description of the two missing from the trunk of the murdered man. In the pocket of one was found a leathern wallet containing six five dollar greenback bills. CUPID AND SAM WHITE left the house where they slept yesterday morning, and soon after White gare Cupid the carpetbag and dismissed him, saying that he was about to leave the city. He started with Cupid on the preceding day for the depot of the 11 Savannah and Charleston Railroad, but being taken sick returned to the house in Felix street. Officers Hord and Porns left the city last evening for Columbia, on his track, but it is believed by many that Sam Is In the city or | j near it. The other prisoners are held for ex? amination. THE SQUABBLE OVER THE UNITED STATES MARSHALSHIP.-The Washington Star, of Mon? day, says: Congressman Elliott, of South Carolina, saw the President on Saturday to urge the remo? val o? United Slates Marshal Johnson. The President will not make any change until af? ter a conference with Senator Sawyer. Ex Congressman H?ge is a candidate for the mar shaiship. A Washington letter, of Monday, to the Bal? timore Gazette says: Senator Sawyer called upon the President to-day to meet the charges made against John? son, marshal of South Carolina. He showed that whilst the faction that is seeking the removal ol Johnson were charging him with alleged sympathy with the Ku-Klux, the marshal wa?, at that verj moment, delivering a number ol the Ku-Klux over to the custody of the court at Columbia, and, as shown by a press tele? gram, had gone io arrest others. That in? stead of comins here and neglecting his busi? ness to beg a continuance in office, lie was failhlu ly discharging the duties of his office H ow much the President will be affected by this stateiaenr of Senator Sawyer remains to be seen, bat the other (action of Radicals, de? manding the appointment of H?ge in place ol Johnson, are confident of success. The Radi? cals are now divided among themselves over the Federal official patronage. THE ACADEMY OF Music GRAND GIFT CON certs, as advertised by Messrs. Huller, Chad? wick, Gary & Co.-Mr. Eben Coffin, sub-agent lor this splendid and attractive scheme, is now prepared to sell tickets for the same. Appli? cations to be made to him at the office ot Mr. Edward M. Moreland, No. 29 Broad street. x nu CLUBS AND STARS_The Mayor's docket yes? terday morning again presented a gratifying blank, and the usual crowd ol the quarrelsome vagrants and topers seem to have abandoned the city. Cut one case was reported, and that was for firing off a pistol on one of the wharves. The matter turned out to be noth? ing but a servant discharging, by order, a pistol which had been loaded for a long time, and the case was dismissed. Ho ! XOR THE FAIRS.-! he South Carolina Railroad has consulted the convenience ol the crowds who will be pouring along its route to visit the fairs to be held in Columbia and several Georgia cities during the coming montb, and visitors to these exhibitions can obtain tickets to and from the fairs lor one fare. AU freight shipped on this road for the fairs will also be returned free, upon the cer? tificate of the secretaries that the articles or animals have been on exhibition. CRUMBS.-Columbia wants a jockey club. A Horry man, one day last week, killed thirty-five alligators, and the next he killed ten more. There was an incendiary fire in Horry on Monday-the first malicious burning In the annals of that republic. To the miscreant the Horry News saith: You are known ! You may escape a ju6t re? ward in this world, but that burning barn will be your palace in the devil's kingdom; though not native born, you, a. least, will be crowned with the glory of being the first who ever used the Incendiary's torch in Horry County.
