COLUMBIA. ?** -:-? Saturday Morning, Nov. 7. 1888. ___._.__.___. _" TH? Ei?Kcnos is THIS SrAra^Saf ?cient returns h a V? been received from tbo vari? MI* Counties to profe very conclusively that South Carolina has gono Democratic by several tbonsaud majority. This intelligence is nil the more gratifying from tho fact that it* was unexpected. Tho heavy Ropub ltcau majorities on tho seaboard hayo boen upsot, it is pretty certain, hythe mountain Democracy. The following additional return*, uro nnhliohed: YORK.-Incomplete returns show u Democratic majority of about GOO. SPARTANBURG.-The entire vote of tho County is 3,462-the Democrats polling 2,770 and tho Bepnblicans 092-D?mocratie majority 2,078. A correspondent writes: "Oar District, all quiet-no riot nov oven a disturbance in any part of tho District. Nor have we had any troops to mnko Us behave Governor Scott need not obnrge D-mocrats with being lawless, as Spartanburg is moro thoroughly Democratic than any District in the State, and has had a more quiet and orderly election day without oeing garrisoned."

Tho Freedmen's Bureau reports that tho expenditures in South Caro? lina during tho past year were $195, 500, besides 289,000 used in buying subsistence stores issued to planters, with a lien ou their crops. Bonds were taken from the planters for this lost amount, nearly or quite all of which will be collected before New Year's. .The crops this year aro tole? rably good, and all who were indus? trious have now abundant moans of support. There is not much trouble botwetui employers and employed. The freedmen are, in all material re? spects, much better off than they were last year. The total number of sick treated during the year was 55, 000, of whom one-fifth were whites. Great attention lins been paid to school matters. The number of teach? ers is 123; pupils 6,698. The bureau has spent $50,000 on school buildings during the year. - Now that Gen. Grant is elected President for the next four years, has begun tho discussion as to whether his words, "let us have peace," are to be carried ont by acts that will promptly inaugurate that much-to be-desired state of things. "Will the olive branch be substituted for the sword?" cr will tho harsh terms embraced in the Reconstruction Acts bc adhered to? ROVING ROYALTY. - Never before has Europe contained so many dis carded or disinherited sovereigns. To say nothing of mere heirs to royalty such us the Comte de Chambord, the Comte do Paris, the Count de Moute molin and the father of the Emperor of Austria, we have the two ex Qnecns of Spaiu, the ex-Kings of Holland, of Naples, of Greece, and till recently of Bavaria also, thc ex King of Hanover, the banished Grand Dnke of Tuscany, besides a host of minor dukes nod electors, once reg nant in Italy and Germany. In fact the whole continent is~iilled with liviug warnings to unworthy royalty aud roaming memorials of tho insta bility of human greatness. It is said that the returning omi grants to Ireland now amount to ono-tbird of tho outgoing, and the ratio is constantly, though slowly increasing. This is duo mainly to tho increasing prosperity nnd ad vanced tfqg?s among the Irish peo pie, and thc'most hopoful friends of ireland look to thc gradual eqooUza tiou of wages on both sides of the water to stop emigration altogether The United States are not likely howevor,#to feel tho want of it, sinco that from Germany is largely on th increase, and the contemplated cs tablishmcut of steamship lines with tho Baltic ports will .soon start an other and entirely new emigration ono which, in view of the opening of the Great Wost by the Pacific Rail road, will provo highly valnablo, on account of being n striotlv ngrknltn rnl population. Sir Roderick Murchison, in another of his periodical letters on Dr. Liv ingstone, announces that commuai cations have been recently received from that distinguished traveler. He is expected home before Christmas. ^Mammi^BW^ ,ri|"JM"mw Not ono mon in fifty who carries hia paper to the breakfast table aa an indispensable part of tho meal, stops to reflect what it is nnd how it is Stade. He foelj his paper u . matter of necessity, while he yetlooka upon ii as a matter of courso;and tho con? stant, steady and unyielding strain ti'pon the body; brain sud pocket of ita producer nevor once enters iuto his calculation. And this necessity for newspapers has been of growth so gradnul that tho public has failed to appreciate tho vast increaso in the machinery of "paper-ranking" to sptiefy tho greatly increased demand. Porty years ago, tho newspaper that to-day is ns neces? sary as the morning'.-* washing or the breakfast of every town mau, was a luxury indulged in by tho few. Tho journal itself was a sheet the size of I a pocket-handkerchief, its news was not quite a mouth old, and its typo? graphical beauty brought back the early days when "the Devil first taught tho art to Doctor Faustus," or, at least, when Benjamin Franklin laborious worked bis onc-uinn-power engine. Fifty years ago. thc newspaper man was bis own editor, type-setter, pressman, office bo3', proof-reader, foreman, reporter, book-keeper anil correspondent. Except in the latter case-which is still rigidly adhered to in many offices-avery thing is ut? terly changed. Tho corps of a great daily, in a large city, is as thorough? ly organized and about ns mimerons as a regiment in the field. Euch edi? tor, reporter, critic aud writer in every branch, bas bis own clearly de? fined duties; and bo must perform theso with unfailing promptitude ano precision. A general controlling spiril combines theso varying masses and fuses them into thc amalgam, we ac cept as so satisfactory and think sc simple. Tho mechanical part, too, that put; this material into form, bears little trace of the parent system. Tin magic wand of progress bas wnvet over the printing press, and its bun dred wheels and bands and cylinder; fly before tho heath of steam in i way that would cause a Guttenbnrj to grow yellow with astonishment. In "tho good old times," the pay? ment for a paper was, as Jiulh/ Hot (om hath it, "Bless us, a thing o naught!" Tho editor of nil worl took payment (wheu bc could get it in kind. Ho would receive chickens eggs, cabbages and garden sass, ovo his counter in exchango for tho lumi nary be banded across it. Cord wood, peanuts aud knit socks wer currenoy to bim; and in many ouse he had to wait for these till the either grew or were made to order. Take tho system of a great daily c the present, with its news from ever quarter-its gossip from Pekin, il acourato history of tho row in tb back alley, its perfect biography < the "wickedest man" in ita city; tl reliable quotations of sale five m ?utes before in Liverpool, and i thoughtful leaders upon vital que tions of the hour. "What is it but a map of busy li -ita fluctuations and its vast coi corns." And then reflect upon the gre power of such a journal, conductc on principles of perfect fairness ar as perfect fearlessness. Tho ?re metropolitan journals of New Yoi are very kings among their peopl and the tribute they demand is pa promptly and ungrudgingly. F< the city man knows the valuo of h paper, its great power to aid him ai to return every dollar bo pays it hundred-fold. Ho knows it ls a coi plicated machine thnt eats up mon with insatiato maw; and he willing gives his mite-among ten thousai -that it may lack no sustenance ai keep its vigor and its power to bc him unimpaired. But even tho ci mau who advertises by the $10,0C does not know all the thousand lea by which the means of a great da trickle off. How singular will it sou to our readers then, if we tell thc that a paper like the Herald co; daily-for composition, paper, te grams, pay of workmen, editors, e< respondents and reporters-from fv thousand to five thousand dollars? And this is the great secret of 1 wonderful success of such a paper-I great secret of its power-that it 1 the circulation to demand this gr daily outlay. With that circulate aud with that influence, such a jour can be entirely independent, lt < act np to the axiom of all nowa pcrs, that it asks no favors, but gi u quid pro quo for anything it recoil and it can take a proper and in pendent position that makes its fioionoy ten-fold. Another great suit of this avowed understand botweeu paper and patron, is cheapening tho former one-half, j Herald, with its twelve orowi pages running over with news, f. sip, criticism and thought, can sold for less than the price of a d; in a Southern city; and why? brea the Herald can demand prompt imedinte payment for all the wor doe?; and thus simplifying it? it cato machinery, reduce the cost running it. When tho daily on of the Herald is greatest, its inc? is proportionately inoreased; for A. T. Stuart, Bonner, or Helmb the Bucha king himself, can opel columns without the open seaann greenbacks in advance. This, then, is the great differi between those mighty engine* of news in the North nnd the provincial Sross of tho Sooth-that while the "orthorn paper is independent and remnnorativo by its very ection, thc Southern journal is cramped and strained until it becomes in Rome sort I a beggar. Ana this marked difference will continue until our people IC-??I ilmt to have a good thing they must pay for it; and that t_ bo effective in its 1 sentiments or its business uses, a pa? per must be perfectly independent, not only in tono, but in hard, mate? rial fact.-Mobile, Register. Ku KLUX.-A horrible outrage was committed somewhere iu tho Statu of Arkansas, n few days ago. Our in? formant is a reliable colored man, who heard the particular.* from u member o? tho "loyal league," who ?;ot his information from a fellow who ost a cousin in tho late war. It seemed that a Mr. Carpet-Bugger was attacked in his own boase by 1,032 Kn Kluxers, armed with double-bar? reled bowie-knives. They slaughtered and ate ninctoeu of Mr. Bagger's children before his oyes, and "com? pelled Mrs. Bagger to eut her own Sicnd off, and hang it on a book iu tho cellar. She was then ordered to keop still upon pain of instant death. Sho happened to sneeze, and the leader of tho dastardly crow imme? diately had a thrashing machine set up and run Mrs. Bagger through. It's very doubtful if sho recovers. Mr. Bagger was then forced to swal? low four tons of gunpowder and a handful of nitro-glycerine. Ho was next dieted on live coals until un ex? plosion took place, which subjected Mr. Bagger to such intense pain as to almost deprive him of reason. Tho iiends then shot him full of holes, made him hurrah for Jefferson Davis and Horace Groeloy, and finally in? oculated him with the small pox, and soaked him with strong lye. He was threatened with iustunt death if ho revealed tho names of any of tin perpetrators of this outrage, all ol whom are neighbors of Mr. Bugger, and who - bato him because Mr. Ii. was a lo3*al sutler and cotton specula tor during thc war, and now lives on a confiscated plantation, with enougl niggers to elect him to thc Legisla ture. It is feared that Mr. Baggei has sustained such internal injurie' that he will not be able to appear a: a witness at the military commissioi appointed to try some ex-rebels foi reading D?mocratie newspapers. ?

A BEMAUKAP.MJ SET.-Old farine Gruff wa* ono morning tugging away with all his might and main a a barrel of apples, which ho was en deavoriug to get up tho cellar stairs and calling at the top of bis lung for one of his boya to lend a helping band, but iu vain. When he had, after an infinit amount of sweating and pnfiiing, ac complishcd his task, and just whei they were not needed, of course, th boys made their appearance. "Where have you been, and whu havo you beeu about, I'd like t know, that yon could not hear m call?" inquired tho father, in a angry tone, and addressing th eldest. "Out in the shop settiu' the s.?w, replied the youth. "And you, Dick?" "Ont in the barn settin' thc hen.' "And you, sir?" "Up in Granny's room settiu* tli clock." "And you, young mau?" "Up in the garret settin' thc trap. "And now, master Fred, whei were yon, and what wore yon se tin'?" asked tho old farmer of h youngest progeny, thc asperity of L temper being somewhat softened I his amusing category of answer "Come, let's hear?" "Ou the door step settiu' still," 1 lilied tho young hopeful, seriously. "A remarkable sot, I must coi fess," added the amused sire, disper ing the grinning group with a wail of the hand. "LET JEEMES GO."-The Land 1 Lure gives a model letter from young lady, whose sweetheart was the fifth South Carolina regiment, Mr. Davis, President of tho late Co federaey, asking for a furlough f her lover to come home and get mi ried: "Dear Mr. President: I want y< to let Jeemes Clauey, of companj' lt 5th S. C. regiment, come homo ai get married. Jeemes is willi-', I willin', my mammy, abo is wilJii bis mammy says she is willin', fa Jeemes' captain, he ain't willi Now when we're all willin', cept Jeemes' captain, I think you mip let up nnd let Jeemes come. ; make him go straight back when h dono got married, nnd fight just hard over, Your affectionate frit-t &c." Mr. Davis wrote on tho lett "Let Jeemes go," and Jeemes ca home, married tho affectionate c respondent of Mr. Davis, and retu ed to his regiment, and did Qght .well as ever. A NEW JAIXOB.-Mr. Phillipp-., I jailor appointed by Sheriff Mack hos resigned the position, and J. Olawson, a colored mao, has b< appointed in his stead. Clawsot a respectable colored man, v known to mott of the citizons. f Charleston Neus gular brilliancy may be giren to the eyes by allowing A small' quantity of soap-suds to enter those organs whilo washing the face. This will bo found painful at first; but, according to tbe French proverb, II faut souffrir pour eire beau. -A . i The hair should bo oat wwi scisv oOiTs, aud not ?urved with a knife and fork, or mutilated with a saw. Gold hair is moro valuable than silver; thc latter never grows above tho crown. Baldness may be prevented by pin? ning tho hair securely at the roots, or by dying ot tho age of oighteen. Tho naman elbow is u beautifully constructed fabric, but it should never be visibly obtruded through a hole in the coat. Tho knee-pan also -or patella-though equally curious in formntion, should romain a mys? tery tor the goneral public. Tho boot as at present const i tuted, is a torture worthy of tho inquisition in its most, genial times. From this horrible instrument we proceed by degrees to a state of comparative com? fort; tho shoe-the slipper-thc golosh! Goloshes are objected to by many on the score of drawing thc feet, but a well-drawn foot is a rare and charming spectacle. Hats should bo worn move on thc bock of the bead than ut present, sc that the}* may exhibit thu frontal de? velopment and keep tho brain-pan in a state of pleasant warmth. The cns tom of sleeping in a hat is injurious, to health, as it prevents the head from reposing flat upon the pillow, and gives rise to disturbing dreams. .-- - - - . - HAY:: MODERN AKMS INCREASED THE MORTALITY IN BATTIIE?-Thl Revista Militar, of Lisbon, contend? that tho perfecting of fire-arms, fut from increasing the mortality in bat? tle, has, on tito contrary, diminished it, and alleges thc following iustances At Austerlitz the French lost 14 pei cent., and the Austrians and Prus? sians, respectively, 14 and III) per cont, of their soldiers. At Moscow tho French loss was 37, while thc Russian loss was 41 per cont. At Wag ram the casualties were nurong the French 13, and amoiifr the Ans trians 14 per cent. At Bauten th? French lost lil, the Russians auc Prussians li per cent. At Waterlot the losses of tho Allies were 81, une of the French 30 per cent. Thee comes the contrast. At Magenta th?. French lost b;it li pur cent, of theil troops, and tho Austrians' percentage did not exceed 8, while at Solferiuc the losses of the combatants were 1( and 8 per e?'nt. Tt is hardly fuir t< compare thu battle of Murfrecsbore with those of regular armies, bu according to the report of Genera, llosencranz, which caused some sur priso at the time it was published 20,000 discharges of cannon put obi; 728 men hors de combat, and out o 2,000,000 musket shots, no moro thai 13,330 took effect. It thus took 2' caunon balls and 150 bullets, o about 252 pounds of metal, to disabl each soldier.

A LUNATIC LOOSE.-An insane co? lored man named Middleton escaped from the Muzyck Street Hospital at 6 o'clock yestorday morning, and by some means secured a knifo. His first action on reaching tho street, was to stab i colored woman in the hick. This was seen, and after a short struggle he was arrested by policemen Wade and Sargent, and taken buck to the hospital. Tho wo? man was also eared for. Tho eut is quite deep and may jeopardize tho life of tho woman. - Charleston Nctrs. i A GOOK JUDGE or A SERMON.- J Dootor liarnos, who "3 now about 1 ninety-five years of a/"}, being some? times-as even younger men might bc-inclined to sleep a littlo during the sermon, a friend who waa with him in bis pew one Sunday, joked bim on bis having nodded now and then. Eames insisted that ho had boon awake all the time. "Well, then," said bis friend, "'eau yon tell nie what tho sermon was about?" "Yes. J eau." he answered; " it was about an hour too long!" A .sailor's wifo at Prot pul rick lind I just received intelligence that her hnsbaod had perished at sea. She waa visited by u neighbor, wlit( sym? pathized with heron her loss, and ex? pressed a fear that she would be poorly off. "Deed willi," said the widow; "but he did all he could for mc-ho saved me the expense of his buryin'. " Curtie, in his Sedgwick oration, used the quotation " Ubi libertas, ibi patria." A short-hand reporter "took him" all right, but in writing out the uoles made him say. "Yon be Liber? tas, I be Patria," and thus it was printed. A mau who ran away from his wife I in Indiana twenty-six years ago, has just returned. She had married nguiu, but willingly rejoined her first husband.

Wo would be unjust to thc memory of a valued friend, and worthy man, did wo not give uttorranco to our "regret for his de? parture, and mir appreciation of his worth. William ll.

Thc community will unito with us in according to our friond an innocent and iinonending disposition, a warm and gcuerous heart, an honesty as undeviat? ingly true as tho "needle to "tho polo;" and, above all, a "conscience void of offence toward mon." His contentment and freo dom from covetousness were ouch that we could truly say of him, ho was "passing rich with fi>rty pounds a year." In his capacity as Railroad Agent, he gave uni? versal satisfaction; for who could have been harsh to dear old Plowers? Who docs not now miss his benevolent faco? In parting with our old friond, who his been gathered to bia fathorsiatho falineas of thren-acoro years ?nd ten, we recall to mind his many oudoaring qaalltioe, and would expross the general sentiment of tenderness for his memory by tha "kind? hearted phrase" of "Poor Plowersl" JUNIOR. .ll, l1WH>M(lIWTnM E?ooal Item?.
