Allen, Chester. 8. P. Kinard, Newberry C. H. James Grant, Union. A LADT OUTRAGED AND HER BRO? THER MURDERED.-Some days ago vri copied from the Nashville Banner, a horrid ?tory of violence to a young ?white girl of thirteen, named Ezell, by a negro named William Gustine. Gustine, was pursued, arrested and committed to tho jail in Franklin County, to await trial for the crime. On the night after tho day of his arrest, a.large body of armed men rode into Franklin, and, demanding the keys of the jail from the sherill', took Gustino ont and shot him. This occurred last Friday night. Gu Saturday, it was reported that the negroes around Franklin were arming to avenge the death of Gus? tino, and intended to burn the town. Citi/.on.s from tho surrounding coun? try rode in to aid in defending the place, and, remaining until about 10 o'clock, some of them were in the act of returning home, when they were fired upon by a party of negroes and white men, concealed in ambush. The ambuscade consisted of sixteen negroes and two white men, making eighteen in all. Young Ezell, bro? ther of the ravished girl, was shot by the assassins and mortally wounded. A young man named Beasley was also shot through the foot, and his horse was badly hurt. Young Ezell died on Sunday night. Tho citizens of Franklin were up all Sunday night, guarding the town, and no little excitement prevailed in appre? hension of further hostile demon? strations on the part of the negro assassins and their white leaders. [Macon Telegraph. WHY GRANT ISSUED HIS ORDER AGAINST THE JEWS-HE THOUOHT ONE-EIGHTH WAS GREATER THAN ONE FOURTH.-The Baliston Democrat, re? ferring to the order issued by Gene? ral Grant prohibiting the admission of Israelites within the lines to traffic with the soldiers, says: At the time alluded to, a prominent Jew cotton dealer of Cincinnati made a bargain with Grant for the getting ont of 500 bales of cotton from the Black River country, assisted by the Second Wisconsin Cavalry. The Jew offered, as was the custom, one-fourth of the profits. Grant wanted more, and at last the Jew offered an eighth, which Grant accepted. The cotton was got out and shipped to ^Icmphi? and sold. The Jew, faithful to his promise, met Grant with the proceeds of tho ?ule, and gave the General one-eighth of the profits, and departed. Grant's Adjutant-General, surprised at tho smallness of the profits, spoke to the General about it, who was so exas? perated on learning that one-eighth was loss than one-fourth, that he withiu that hour issued the order ex? pelling all Jews from the lines, and to this day has never forgiven the entire race for his own stupidity. FREEDOM OF THOUGHT AND SPEECH. Yesterday a colored man was assault? ed and beaten severely by several of his race, on East Bay, bec mso ho j avowed himself a Democrat in senti? ment. Is this the freedom of thought and speech about which Randolph howls, and Cardoza dreams? Is this the liberty aud equal rights with which the Constitutional Convention was occupied so long, and which has beon talked of, and sung of, and cried over by the whole radical party. Look well to it. colored men! See that you bo not deceived. [Charleston Courier. The use of tho Irish language is iyiug out in Ireland, and it is esti? mated that twenty years hence what ; is almost tho oldest tongue in North? western Europe will cease to be used. Tho beauties of Celtio litera? ture can never, however, be preserv? ed in any other language. WHAT MACKEY IS TO DO.-Tho Co? lumbia correspondent of tho Now York Herald says: "Tho defeat of Dr. A. G. Mackey in tho lato sena? torial coutest, by the coalition of the Northern adventurers and Democrats in the Legislature, bas raised a strong spirit of opposition among tho na? tive colored members against all 'carpet-baggers. ' They have resolved to support no ono for oflieo but a nativo of thc State, white or colored. With this view they have already nominated a nativo colored man as a candidate for Congress at tho fall elections, in opposition to Mr. Whit temore, a Massachusetts man. Dr., Mackey, who is expected by his friends to stump the Stato for Grant and Colfax, will also, it is believed, ho a supporter of this movement. Tho Democrats aro makiug big capi? tal out of tho defeat of Mackey's part}', and, though in a very small minority, feel confident of carrying through most of their measures this session. They do not recognize the legality of the Reconstruction Acts, but have taken their seats in what they deem an unlawful body, simply to check such measures as they think fit to oppose." A NEW "DUMMY" KOR STREET RAILROADS.-For something more than a year past, experiments have been in progress, under the aus? pices of the Brooklyn City Railroad Company, looking to the production of a self-moving car for passenger travel on tho city railways, and as the res?lt of these effort* a new dummy hasjbeen brought ont, which is worked by a steam engine constructed un tho plan recently patented by Messrs. Bailey & Connell, and tho furnace of which is supplied with kerosene or petroleum instead of coal. The fire is started by a small bed of anthra? cite coal, which lasts all day without replenishing, as it is used merely to act as a sort of wick for tho kerosene oil, which is the real fuel. There is a tank of kerosene at the poiut on tho platform furthest from tho fire. From this a small pipo lends to tho fire, and a small quantity of kero? sene is squirted in occasionally. No cinders or smoke are generated, but sufficient heat is evolved, the pa? tentees claim, to keep up steam con? stantly in the engine with a very tri? lling expenditure of oil. Limited trials of this dammy have been suc? cessful. THE NORTH POLE EXPEDITION. The first nows received in London from the German North Polo expedi? tion, which left Bergen, Norway, on tho 24th of May, is favorablo. The vessel was then in latitude seventy two, and all on board were well. Tho important object of this mission was referred to by us at the time of its departure from Bergen. It is to ex? plore for the first time the Eastern coast of Greenland, North of the seventy-fifth degree, and to penetrate as far Northward as possible. In the opinion of the originator of this ex? pedition-the celebrated geographer, Dr. Petermann, of Gotha-Green? land extends across the Arctie re? gions as far kas the Behring Strait, and the navigation along the Eastern coast is beset with comparatively fow difficulties. Dr. Petermann, and with him many of the first scholars of Germany, expect great results from it.:.. -,_""/l:i:"?

A RELIC-Tho old mound of c on? creto on the Citadel Square has been enclosed, and is now encircled by a neat picket fence, which will protect it from hurm. This mound is a relic of the past worth preservation, and tho new fence around it not only servesas a protection against thought? less persons, but also adorns tho square. It is the remains of a strong, elevated fortress, called the "Horn Works," which, at that time, ran along thc ridge of land where St. Paul's Church, tho Orphan House and tho Citadel now stand, and which were erected about the year 1757 for tho defence of Charleston. During tho war for independence those works wore called the post of honor, and wore in tho year 1780, during tho siege of Charleston, gal? lantly defended by tho Charleston Battalion of Artillery. This mound is tho only relic of thei.o works now remaining, aud wo aro glad to BOO that some efforts bave been made to preserve this interesting remi uiscenco j of past days.-C7uirh>aton Courier.

A_n excellent Paper for Country Reading. ITS POLITICS DEMOCRATIC IN THE GREAT FIGHT AGAINST RADICAL USURPATION. TO THE PE^PLE~?F TUE SOUTff. THE WEEKLY GLEANER-Devoted to I thc rehabilitation of tho South in its former I prosperity-is offered to subscribers at tho low rate of il.50 for pix months. Thc annals of tho American Republic show no political campaign comparable in the magnitude of its issues and the mo? mentousness of ita results to that for tho Presidency, now pending. Indeed, the very lifo of free government is on trial, and it will bo a sad commentary on thc capacity of tho people for tho exercise of that high trust if they, tho jurors who aro to try tho issue, pronounce a verdict of aelf-condemnation. If thc South has any hope it is in the success of the Democratic party in tho coming Presidential election; and every citizen is vitally interested in tho progress of the battle, and cannot afford to be without a Bound and reliable newspaper. As an organ, not only of sound Demo? cratic priaciplee, but as a vehicle of ge? neral newe, tho GLEANER is confidently commended to Southern support. A large eight-page paper, of forty-eight columns, filled with the contributions of ablo cor? respondents, the daily wealth of tele? graphic communication and readablo edi? torials. Especially will it be valuable as an organ to disabuse the Northern mind of the falsehoods in relation to Southern thought and actione, with which it is the industrious vocation of certain parties to poiaon the springe of Northern feeling on Southern subjects. In this view of tho matter, no moro valuable aid to the true reconstruction of the country and restora? tion of jue? sentiment at the North toward the South can be rendered than by sub? scribing to the WEEKLY GLEANER and sending it to acquaintances and friends in ? tho Northern States. Wo ask the aid of such of our political comrades as shall eec this prospectus, in tho distribution of tho paper; especially I during the progress of the impending campaign. H. The WEEKLY GLEANER is published every Wednesday morning, and mailed to single subscribers at $3.00 per ai.uni; Six Months, $1.50; Three Months, 75c; Single Copies, 10c. Sample copies will be sent on receipt of address. Money for sub? scription should be sent in drafts or post office orders, but may be sent in a regis? tered letter.
