DER TRIAL. t Thomas Zimmerman Acquitted by the A Government's own Witnesses- \ Ter. W <iict or Nat Guilty Ordered by the r- Court. The TJoited States Court assembled at the usual hour yesterday morning, and entered upon the case of Thomas Zimmerman, of Spartanburg, charged with conspiracy on May 1, 1871, and the murder of Wallie Olin, alias Wallie Fowler. Messrs. D. R. Duncan and J. fW. Carlisle appeared for the defence. The defendant was arraigned, and pleaded not guilty, and the following jury was obtained : James S. Flllebrowo, foreman; Ebenezer M. Wells, Charles A. Darting, Lorenzo T. Gard? ner, Samuel W. Getty, James Dobbins, Taos. 8. Fc8berry and Thomas S. Mills, white; and James Moultrie, James Battlce, James P. Da Coita, and Thomas Barnfield, Jr., colored: The district attorney then addressed the ju-y In very nearly the same language that he bad employed In opening former cases, and .called Columbus Matthews as the first witness for tjte prosecution. Matthews testified that be hid been a Eu-Kluz, hartog joined the .Cec ar Springs den In March, 1871. Had been ou one raid when George Garner, a white man, was whipped. The chief said he was to ?be whipped because be was a constable under a black man. Tba. same den also raided on a negro at Mr. Thomas's place, and he had heard of another raid on which ? man named Win smith wes shot. Knew nothing of these things himself, and bad only been on one raid. There was no cross-examination ci ibis wit-1 .ness. I John Matthews was next called. He testl- I -fled that he had joined the Bates vii le den of Ku? Klux in April, 1871;-and he described the raid on the night o? May 1st, 1871, on which Wallie Olin was killed. He testified that the party met at General Bates's store, and went first to Mose Oates's house, found him and whipped him pretty severely. He waa a black mon, but witness did not know his politics. They then went to. Matthew Lancaster's house and j got bim out --Somebody threw a bed-quilt over his head, bot he struggled out el lt and Tan away. Then Jim Vandiver chased after I ' him, shot him, and: came back saying he bad I killed him. Witness was positiva that lt was Jim Vandiver who shot him. They next went to Wallie Olin's, and John Thompson jerked him out ol the bouse, and,putting a pistol upi Close to his forehead, fired, and the ball -entered his head. Olin fell down, and Thomp son fired two more shots at bim. He then called for a fire, and, getting a torch, threw that, do w n on Olin and left it burning. Olin died next day of his wouuds. There were on the I raid beside the witness Zach. Vandiver, Jim Vandiver, John Thompson, Aaron Thompson, Francis Thompson, John Zimmerman and Joe Zimmerman, sons of David Zimmerman, and I brothers of the defendant. Witness did bot see -the defendant there. There were three men present whom the witness did not know. On being cross-examined by Mr. Carlisle, tbe I witness said. that he would have known the .defendant If he had beep on the raid, and re pea ted positively that it was Jim Vandiver | 'who fired at Lancaster. ' ! Matthew Lancaster, colored, was next called. He testified that he was forty-six j Tears old, and bad always lived In Spartan? burg. The Ku-Ktux came on him In May, I 1871, pulled him out of bed and threw a bed quilt over bis head. He heard somebody call out "skoot him." Then he threw off the quilt - and started to run, and somebody rode after him and shot him in the back of the head. The bullet entered Into his head, and was ] . taken out four days after by Dr. Means. It J was Tom Zimmerman,, the d?tendant, who I chased bim and shot him. Knew it was the I .d?tendant because he recognized his voice j when he was chasing him. Knew the de tendant very well, and was positive that he I Identified him. On being cross-examined, the witness testified that the party did not tell him what they came on him for. He recog- j >nized John Thompson and Thomas Zimmer- j man by their voices. Recognized none of the party by sight, bot only by the sound of I their Voices, and was rnnnlog away as fast as he could when he heard them. Was In great ? confusion, excitement and fright. Was posi-1 tlve that he Identified Zimmerman. ? Wesley Brown, colored, waa next called. He testl ried that he saw the Ku-Klux upon the raid that had been described. ' Was standing I 'near his o wu house while they were at Lan-1 castfA house, r It was at night, but the moon I -was sh thing. Did not know what time of the year It was, nor the month, nor the dsy of the week. Did not know the distance between j -the two houses, but thought lt was about as j far as a certain building which .he pointed out through the window of the court-room, and I r which ls about a hundred yawls away from the .courthouse. Recognized Tom Zimmerman by his voice and his horse. The horse was a 'black pony belonging to the defendant, which the witness had seen very often and knew per- I fecily well. When asked by the district attor ney if there was any peculiarity about Zlm merman's voice, by which he recognized lt, the witness replied that "be didn't understand I dictionary talk, bnt be know'd It was Tomi .Zimmerman." On being cross-examined the I witness testified frat he was "going on twenty three years old." Did not know when his birthday would come. Had voted lu 1868. Did not know who be voted for, but knew lt was the Republican ticket. Did not know ?whether he was twenty-one years old then. Did not know what year lt ls now. Becog aizecT'Tom Zimmerman, Elijah Lee and Mr. { Millwood. Knew them all by their voices. Was standing in a cotton patch while they were coming toward him. Was not very much J frightened. Dr. Jones, a white gentleman, was next ?ailed by the prosecution. He testified that he lived In Spartanburg, and saw Wallie Olin on the day that he died. He was shot In the head and a portion of his brain protruded I from the wound. He was comatose all day, J _ and died at 3 P. M. Believed the cause of his being shot was the private spite and malignity cf John Thompson. On belnsr cross-examined by Mr. Carlisle, Dr. Jones t.>rifled that he had talked with Wesley Brown, the last witness, frequently about the raid. Brown said that he stood In the door of his house while the party were at' Lancaster's house, but the moment that they started away from Lancaster's house he J u m p ed and ran as fast as he could. Never rao BO fast before in all bis life. In the con? versations that witness had had with Brown, the latter bad never Intimated that he had re .cognized anybody until quite recently, and since he bad been talking wlih Mat Lancaster about the case. Witness had also talked with Lancaster, and had had a conversation with bim that morning, when Lancaster said that John Matthews bad told bim that it was Jim Vandiver and not Tom Zimmerman who shot him, and that his confidence in his former be? lief bad thus been considerably shaken. This closed the testimony for the prosecu? tion, and the defence did not deem it neces? sary to produce any witnesses. Mr. Cai lisle, addressing the court, said that the case was clearly one that should be nol. pressed by the government. The prosecution had made out no case whatever to go to the jury, and jus? tice demanded that the case should be dis? missed. Judge Bond said that he could not himself j see how the Jury could and a verdict against tbe defendant. One witness swore that it was the defendant who fired upon him, but iden? tified him only by his voice, while another witness, also tor the prosecution, swore posi? tively that it was another man who did the shooting. The district attorney said that of course after that statement from the court he could not ask the jury to convict the d?tendant, and he admitted that lhere was a fatal conflict of tes- j timony. He therefore consented to a verdict | of not guilty, which was accordingly entered and the prisoner was discharged. NEWBERRY COUNTY. The Effects of Martial Law aud Offi? cial Persecution.

The friends of the ministry lu the new Cortes held a meeting last night, which was presided over by Admiral Topete. The object of the meeting was to assure the government of sympathy and support In lie struggle with the insurrection. Sago s ta made a fiery speech demandlug to be placed at the post of the greatest danger. Serrano and Rosas aleo made addresses full of patriotic enthusiasm and loyalty. MADRID, April 26. There ls a vast Increase In the number of CarllBts bands throughout the Kingdom. Fit- j teen hundred persons are now engaged In the insurrection. A proclamation bas been Issued declaring many places In a state of siege. Ibe government refuses to furnish the presB with any 1 ni urination relative, either to Ita or the Carllsts movement. There is a great demand for troops from the provinces wtiere the Car lists are most active. Marshal .Serrano, with six thousand troops, has gone to Navarre, and his presence at the head of thia force has checked the operations of the Carllsts In that department. Marshal Serrano will be appoint? ed generalissimo of the forces operating ? against the insurrectionists. Marshal Concha will a so be given high command. It ls believed that the future of Spain now depends upon the course of the radicals, and that if they co-operate with the partisans, Don Caries's revolution will be successful PARIS, April 25. The Univers and Liberte announce that Don Carlos has cro.-sed-the frontier and ls now lu Spain; at the head of ten thousand men. The same journals say a perfect understanding exists between the Carllsts and Republicans. The forcer are to draw the troops into the open country and leave the towns defenceless against the Republicans, who are to rise against the government, on the 1st of May, in all perta of Spain. Only two of the Isabellist generals bave as yet Joined the insurrection. The French Legiti? mists hold aloof from this last daring enter? prise of Don Carlos. PARIS, April 26. The situation In Spain has become very serious. The government bas resolved to adopt most rigorous measures to suppress the Insurrection. Nothing Is certainly known of j the whereabouts of Don Carlos. "ALL QUIET ALONG THE POTOMAC." *An Old Question Reopened. The following communication adds another to the list of those who claim to have written the well-known poem, "AU Quiet Along the Potomac." We print lt with pleasure, and should be pleased to see Mr. Oliver substan? tiate the claims of his father In a manner that would admit of no doubt: MADISON, GA., April 12, 1872. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS. Prompted by the mingled feelings of desire that justice should be done, and of resent? ment against actual Injustice, and impelled also by the love of my heart, I lake my pen to state a few facts lo reference to the poem whose name heads this article. Until recently i I was not-aware that any one bad publicly laid claim to Its authorship, and, as an anonymous poem, I, as well as Us author, wes willing that lt should go down to pos? terity. But some weeks ago I saw, tor the first time,.the work of Professor Davidson, ol the University of 8outh Carolina, on tbs writers of ihe South, In which is cited a brag fart, spread-feather letter from Lamar ontalne, asserting that uthe world may howl over it as lt may, but the poem ls his, and he wrote lt." The real author was a may of extreme modesty and lack of pretension, and, were he living, would be the last to re? fer to the fact that "the world" bad noticed his poem, much less been so exercised about lt as to wrangle and "howl over it." Published without bis consent, and in oppo? sition to his express wish aud request, and hlmsell in the Army of Virginia at ihe time of | its publication, he did not Know lt was in the "immortal custody ol the press" till it had been scattered broadcast throughout the land. Published and republished, set to music and sung by the wives and daughters of Confed? erate soldiers, he was utterly amazed at its re? ception. In August, 1864, bis "dust returned to the earth as il was, and his spirit unto God who gave lt," and other band lhan that which wrote it oiuBt seek to save his poem from men ..no would rob the dead. There was but one witness to the writing, which took place in the late summer or early fall of 1861. It was read Immediately after to a Circle of literary friends. One of these copied lt and had lt published. The out-going of a heart that tenderly loved the wile and mother "far away In the cot on the mountain," and "the two on the low trundle bed," Hie elder of those here claims these words, which, till war snail cease, are set to soul music, as ihe pecu? liar possession of his mother, bis brother and himself, who hold them doubly dear because they are the expression of a husband and a father's love. That husband and father, and not the least of Southern poets, though he died In his prime, was Thaddeus Oliver, of the Second Georgia Regiment, whose home was Buena Vista. Marion County, Ga. If lhere be any still living who can testify to the truth of j the tacts above stated, I earnestly request them to do so forthwith. In the meantime, I' have the satisfaction of knowing that my father's poem has been claimed for him; that the usurpers of his rights have not gone un rebuked, and that my hands have woven a garland with which to decorate his grave. HUGH F. OLIVER. THE GREAT TOMADO. DETAILED REPORTS FROM CHESTER. A Kamber of Persons "Won nd td-mirac? ulous E91 apea-Thc estimated Loss. The following detailed reports, from the Reporter, of the ravages of the tornado' in Chester will be read with especial Interest by those whose altentton has been directed to ihe subject by the telegraphic accounts of the disaster, already printed In THE NEWS: On Thursday afternoon lase the most vio? lent tornado, whirlwind, or something ot the. kind, passed over this unfortunate town, leav lng destruction and desolation in Its train. The day had been an unusually mild and balmy one, scarcely a cloud floating in the sky, until about 4 o'clock In the afternoon, when a dense black cloud was seen riging in the west. It steadily and rapidly approached, overcasting the whole heavens with Its midnight pall. The wind began to blow furiously, accem panted by vivid flashes of lightning and deaf? ening peals of thunder. Suddenly an awful, ominous roarlug was heard In the west, and In a few moments the storm had swept past, scat? tering everything in its path, except the most substantial buildings. So tar as we have been able to learn the de? structive fury of the blast was first experi? enced at the plantation ot Mrs. Roden, five miles to the west of the town. Here all the houses on the place tvere totally wrecked. The saw and grist mill of Elijah D. Walker were the next buildings io feel Its force. They were both levelled to' the ground. From lins point Its track ls marked by scattered fen ces and uprooted torest trees till lt struck the town on the hill near the old Male Academy. The first houses in its course were the large flour mill, built of brick, formerly the property of Major N. R. Eaves, and the sraall brick building occupied by David Jones, colored. The former of these it damaged badly, and the latter it entirely demolished ; burying Jones and his wife lu the ruins, but not injuring either of them seriously. Wiping * out of existence three or lour small houses be? longing to Messrs. Smith 4 Melton, and one belonging to Allen Farrar, colored, lt pa3ied on to the substantial residence of Mr. John C. McFadden. All of his outbuildings, three in number, were demolished. The residence was too strong to yield to tbe storm, though the chimneys were carried away, and the h use Itself strained and partially unroofed. Be? tween this point and where it crossed the rail? road track, lt destroyed two small houses be longing to F. A. McNlnch, one of A. N. Mc Ninou, three of Hon. Samuel Mc?llly, two of William Quatelabaiim, and one belonging to the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad. Several of these houses were occupied at the1 time, but none of the occupants had any bones broken. In some cases they were fastened In the ruins and had to be extricated. The first building encountered on crossing the railroad was the large steam-mill of W. R. Robertson. The brick walls of this building successfully resisted the storm. It was, however, unroofed, and all the wooden additions to the main building entirely wrecked. The miller, Har? rison Balley, bearing the roaring of the ap? proaching storm? attempted to escape from the building. As soon as he reached-' the ground, he was caught up by the whirlwind and carried to the distance of at least a hun? dred yards, where he was lodged against an elm tree. He has no recollection, he says, of passing through the air; remembers nothing irom tue lime he Jumped out of ihe mill UH be found himself at tho tree. From this point ihe storm took its course along the baok street extending from tbe rail? road to the residence of Major G. W. Mellon. Tals street was built up almost entirely with small, one story houses, all of which, with ORO or two exceptions, went down before the fury of the biast. The principal sufferers on this street were Mr. William Nicholson, estate of John Killian, deceased, John McCauthren, George McCormick, Miss Isabella Mccafferty, A H. Davega, Mrs. Baird, William Boss, Mrs. S. E. Albright, Dr. 8. E. Britton, and Major James Pagan. On tbe premises owned :by each of inese persons at least one house was en. ii ely . destroyed, and in several In? stances as many os? four. The next place In the path of the destroyer was the handsome residence and grounds of Major G. W. Melton, "Intendant of the town. Toe house being large and substantially built was very slightly oamaged. The chief orna? ment ot the grounds was the ancient lorest trees that surrounded the house. The great majority ot these were either torn out by the roots or twisted off above the ground. Their loss ls irreparable. The major eslimates his loss at five thousand dollars. Leaving (his abode of wealth and luxury the storm again bent Its efforts to the destruction of the homes of those illy prepared to suffer the loss. The dwelling and outbuildings of Mr. H. Sledge were entirely demolished. At the Morrison place, now the property of William Ross, lt Indulged in a perfect carnival of destruction; the dwelling, stables, gin-house and other dwellings, eight In number, altogether, were levelled to the ground. Here, too, the occupants of some of the houses were covered up In the falling timbers, but mirac? ulously escaped with their lives. The houses of John Lilley, Emeline Morrison, and Frank Kennedy were destroyed between Ulla point and Grassy Run. The total number ot buildings ot all kinds and slzeB entirely destroyed oetween the point where the storm attacked the town and Grassy Run was sixty two; and the damages are variously estimated at frpm thirty to seventy thousand dollars. Four miles lrom Chester the outbuildings on the plantation of Mrs. Polly Gooch were j destroyed. Beyond this point we hear of no ' damage except the overturning ot some fences I and trees. Gentlemen of tue highest veracity assure us that ihey Und lu their fields, seven j miles east of the town, planks measuring eight and ten feet long that were borne lhere on the wind. On Friday afternoon a meeting of the citi? zens of the town, presided over by Rsv. L. C. Hinton, was held in the courthouse, and measures taken to assist the sufferers. We are glad to say that the committee charged with the duty of collecting subscriptions are meeting with a willing and liberal response from those citizens who were so fortunate as lo escape the track of the storm. In addition to the loss of their houses, the sufferers in many cases lost all the contents of their homes, their clothing being whirled away on the wings of the wind, and their furniture being smashed by the falling timbers. The track within which ihe destruction lies Is not more than one hundred and fifty yards wide, and from the description of those who were in the midst of its fury, we suppose the storm was not more than a minute in accom? plishing Its work at any one place. THE STORM IN 0C0NEE. The Courier eays: "Oo Thursday last, this section was visited by a furious wlud and rain storm. Timber was blown down In various directions, and we hear of losses by trees fall? ing on stock, &c. On Tuesday and.Wednes day morning?, killing frosts appeared in our midst." THE STORM IN ANDERSON. The Intelligencer says: " a. severe storm of wind and ralu visited this section on last Thursday afternoon, although we bear of no serious damage resulting therefrom lo this or neighboring counties. Trees were uprooted, In 9 >me instances, and the pissenger train ever the Blue Ridge Railroad was hindered for a short time that evening by the tops of trees blown and reaching across the track."

Milton married the daughter of a country squire, but lived with ber but a short time. He was an austere, exacting literary recluse, while ehe was a rosy, romping country lass, that could not endure the restraint Imposed upon her, so they separated. Subsequently, however, she returned and they li ved tolera? bly happy. Queon Victoria and Prince Albert were cous? ins, and about the only example in tbe long line of English monarchs wherein the marital vows were sacredly observed and sincere affec? tion existed. Shakespeare loved and wed a - farmer's daughter. 5 *e was faithful to her vows, but could hardly say the same of the great bard himself. Like most of the great poets he show? ed too Utile discrimination in bestowing his a Teclions on the other sex. Byron married Mi <s Milbank to get money to pay his debts. It turned out a bad shift. Benjamin Franklin -married the girl who stood in her lather's door laughing at him as he wandered through the streets of Philadel? phia with rolls under his arms, his pockets Ulled with dirty clothes. Washington married a woman with two chil? dren. It ls enough to say she was worthy of him, and lived as married lolks should-in per lect harmony. , John Adams married the daughter ol a Pres? byterian clergyman. Her fatlrer objected on account ot John's being a lawyer; he had a bad opinion of the morals ot the profession. John Howard, the great philanthropist, mar? ried his nurse. She was altogether beneath bim In social life and Intellectual capacity, and, besides this, was fifty-two years old,.while he was but twenty-five. He would not take "No" for an answer, and they were married and lived nappily together until her death, which occurred years alterward. Peter the Great, of Russia, married a peas? ant girl. She made an excellent wife and a sagacious Empress. It ls not generally known that andrew Jack? son married a lady whose husband was still living. She waa an uneducated but amiable woman, and devotedly attaohed to the old warrior and statesman. Edward Lytton Bulwer, the English states? man and novelist, married a girl much his In? terior in position and got a shrew for a wife. She is now Insane. TES MILLIONS OF FIGHTING MEN_All the principal countries of Europe, except Austria, are reorganizing their urmy systems. Germany ls about to Increase her available military loree by 400,000 men, and Russia, whose army, including irregulars, has hitherto numbered 1,309,002 men on war footing, expects, nuder the new system, te have a force of 2,992.809 men at her disposal, not reckoning the local troops and th? militia The new military organization ol'France is not yet decided upon, but lt ia believed that Its result will be to in? crease her army to 1,400,000. Italy, whose war establishment hitherto amounted to 519,630 "men, .including reserve*, proposes by the plan ol reorganization which has been adopted by her liovernment to raise a loree of lrom 750, 000 to 800,000 men. The Turkish army, when on a war tooling, has hitherto couBisted of 270,000 men. Inclusive ot the nizams, or mili? tia. It ls to be Increased to 600,000 men. Finally, the military force of England at home Is to be raised under Mr. Cardtell's scheme to about 300,000 men. When all these plans are carried out, the total war establishment ot the armies of Europe will be increased irom 6,166.000 men to about 10,000,0000. It is to be understood that, this number of men is not ro be actually withdrawn from peaceful pursuits at one tim?. The plans, proceeding more or leas upon the Prussian idea, are to secure a military training to a large part ot the male population which may be promptly drawn upon lu case of war. | THE GOSPEL OF HATE. SOMETHING FOR THE KU-KLTTXPROS? ECUTORS TO REMEMBER. Tir? Harangue of a. Radical Leader Ia 1870. [From the Laurensville Herald, October 28, mo.] We, the undersigned, certify that the follow? ing Is the substance and mostly the words used by Joseph Crews, In a speech made at Waterloo, on the 27th of August last. At a meeting of the citizens of Waterloo, on October 4th, to taite into consideration cer? tain Incendiary remarks made in a public address by Joseph Crews, On the 27th of August last. Mr. J. B. Craig was called to the chair, and Dr. F. G. Coleman was requested to act as secretary. It was moved and seconded that the secre? tary furnish the meeting with the incendiary remarks made by said Joe Crews. Crews after being introduced to the freed? men by a colored friend, said to them: That there was something wrong in the neighbor? hood, and that he had comedown to set things right; that the freedmen of that vicinity had been advised to vote for Carpenter and Butler, but for them not to do so, for they were' the worst enemies that the colored people had, ex? cept the white men who advised them to vote for the Reform party. That they pretended to be their friends, but it was ali a He. That they would promise to sell them bacon' at twenty five cents per pound, and then charge them two and a half per cent a month, making the bacon cost them thirty-five to Arty cents per pound. He (Crews) advised them to go into the fields, gather com and sell it, buy their bacon -although they should owe their employers more than their part of the crop was worth and if any of them, in consequence thereof, should be hurt or killed, they must burn out five miles square, every house; to leave not even a board-tree standing, and that he was trial Justice now, so they bad nothing to fear, as he would see them out. ? He told them he had assisted In the passage of the homestead law, but none of the lreedmen bad been bene? fited by the act, neither had the white people called bim a clever fellow for lt. But he had voled for a law that was worth more than a thousand such laws to them. It was that which had pift those arms In their hands, and, if they did not defend themselves, lt was their j own fault. That revenge was theirs, if i bey [ would use it; they bad the arms, and a box of matches only cost five cents. Hs said he .owned as much properly al Laurens Court? house as any man .there, and should a Repub? lican be shot at that place he would burn the entire town; be would not leave one shingle upon top of another; and he Intended to vote for every measure that would ralee the tax," and if the whiles did not like lt, they could leave the State*. He would give them State bonds for their lands, and that he Intended lo do everything from this time on that would make the black man bate the white people. He told them they must all go out and vote; that lhere would be no challenging their votes this time, as there would be no registration required; and If any one should challenge them to throw them out of their way and go on and vote; they could also dress their women in men's clothes and let them vote. They must .carry the election at all hazards; that he would wade through blood and carry It ac the point of the bayonet. He would lose the last drop of blood In his' body or carry lt; they could not afford to lose lt. Noue but Re? publicans would be allowed to manage the election. Governor Scott must also be elect? ed, or they would not be pardoned when con? victed. He (Crews) bad never asked a favor pf Scott but what .lt bad been granted, nor did he believe he ever would refuse him a favor. So when ibey got into the peniten? tiary he would get them pardoned; that there never bad been but one colored man acquitted thatJhad been tried at Laurens Courtnouse, and no white man had ever been convicted. That there were buta small sprinkle of white men In the State, and they could easily wipe them out; their women could help In the work; that the white people said the negroes would not fight, but would run through the woods with their hats in their hands, ana that he (Crews) would be gone. It was ?ll a lie. He would lead them lt they wouffi stick to him he would die with them before he would leave them; to be sure to elect him and he would make lt all right Vim them. He advised them not to employ a doctor when they got sick. He said if the doctor came to see ihem Monday morning he would charge them for every day through the week If he did not come but one time, and then would give them poisonous medicines, and charge them ten times as muoh as he would white folks,, and take a lien on their crops; and if they got sick In two weeks of an election, and sent for a-doctor, they would be sure not to come out to the election, as the doctor would either kill them or keep them sick until the election was over. He told them to make up money and send North andLoet them the- right-kind of a doctor. He sara the Democrats said he would Ile and steal. He (Crews> said be would; he wanted more land and mules; that he had stoles and would steal; that be had lied and would He; that now he had one band In the Republican's pocket, but, If be got a chance, he would put both hands In the Democrat's pocket, and, If he left one cent, lt would not be his mult. He told tie negroes to steal from ihe Democrats; that they bad a right to do so, I and, if they done anything to them, give them Scott's pills. Signed: J. B. Craig, F. G.
