Flwi^Th;- WOT*. Finish thy work-the time is short, The son is in the West; The night is coming now: till then, Think not of rest. Yes, finish thy work, then rest; Till then, rest never; The rest prepared for theo by God, Is rest forever. Finiah thy work, then wipe thy brow. Ungir? thoo from the toil; Take breath, and from each weary limb. Shake off the ?nil. Finish thy work, then sit thee down, On some celestial hill. And of its strength-roviving air, Take then thy fill. Finiah thy work, then go in peace; Lifo'n battle fought and won; Bear from the Throne the Master's voice, "Well donel well done!" nish thy work, then take thy harp, Give praise to God above; Sing a new song of mighty joy And endless lovo. Give thanks to Him who held thee up. In all thy paths below, Who made thoo faithful unto death, And crowns theo now. RELIEF TO PLANTERS.-Tho follow? ing order of General Howard will bo read with interest by a largo number of planters who havo lost their crops the past summer. It is to be hoped the Commission will meet at an early day, and extend the much-desired relief: WASHINGTON, D. C., November 21. Considerable difficulty having arisen in the matter of collecting advanoes made during tho prssent season to persons engaged in plant lug, made with a view of ennbliug them to give labor and food to the poor, especially the freedmen, and it being represented to the Commis? sioner that great distress will be occasioned by an immcdiato enforce? ment of the bonds taken from such persons to secure payment for said advances, on account of tho destruc? tion of tho crops by the worms or other unforeseen canses, tho Com? missioner, issued a lotter of instruc? tion, of date October 19, 18G8, (copy herewith attached.) Ik now being found to be extremely difficult to determine what persons are justly entitled to the relief con? templated in tho instructions con? tained in said letter, and with a view to relievo the officers of this Bureau of the odium naturally attaching to them in making tho necessary dis? crimination between the claimants, and in order to relieve the present embarrassment of those who havo lost their crops, or had them so injured as to prevent their fulfilling the con? ditions of their obligations to thc Government by proceeds of their crops, or other means within their power, the Commissioner hereby appoints a board to consist of the Assistant Commissioner of South Carolina as chairman, tho Governor of South Carolina, and ex-Governor William Aiken. The Board will convene as carly as convenient, at such place as the chair? man shall direct, and is authorized to decide what persons among those whoso bonds are now held by this Bureau for supplies advanced, and who have, in part.or whole, lost their crops, shall be relieved in accordance with the instructions contained in the accompanying letter. (Signed) O. O. HOWARD, Major-General, Commissioner. GREAT KU KLUX DEMONSTRATION AT FLOEENCE, ALA.-Tho Memphis Ava? lanche, of November 2G, says, a relia? ble correspondent writes as follows toafriend in this city, from Florence, Alabama: About a week ago Saturday night, the Kn Klux came into town to regu? late mattters. They were hero from eleven o'clock P. M., to three o'clock A. M.-five hundred in all. They shot ono very bad negro, putting six balls through his head. Many heard tho noise, but did not know what was going on. They also hung three or four other negroes nearly dead, and whipped others severely, in order to make them tell about their nightly meetings, and what their object was in holding tho same; also, as to who their leaders were. They made a clean breast of tho whole matter, tell? ing everything. The strangest thing about these Kn Klux was, that they did not hesi? tate to unmask themselves when asked to do so; and out of tho whole party none were identified livery one who saw thom says their horses were more beautiful than and far superior to any in the country round about. They spoko but little, but always to the purpose. They went to soveral stores and knocked; tho doors were opened nt once. They then called for a rope, and at each placo a ^joil wai rolled out to them. They eui it suitable in length to hang a mah with. No one asked for money, and they offered none. They did not disturb any one else, nor did they take anything except sorao few En- j field rifles, which wero found in pos? session of some very bad negroes, j They called on tho revenue collector I and passed a fow remarks with him. What transpired is not known, but it has mado a great improvement iu his j conversation. Tho visitants' advent | has been productivo of much good I and benefit to the community, though I al! regret that such steps should have to bo resorted to.

To THK PUBLIC.-The recommen? dation of the Governor in his late message, that stops be taken "to Sroven t tho courts and officers of the r.nk of the State from wasting and misapplying its assets," and too belief expressed, that not less than $60,000 m gold has been squandered and made way with for salaries of officers and agents, fees of attorneys employed to bring the credit of the State into disrepute, and other object? of equally questionable propriety, calls for some notice on tho part of tho bank, and in the absence of the President, I deem it my duty to lay the facts before tho public. The contingent expenso account of the bank has been regularly furnished to tho Legislature since 18G5, the present session included, and con? venient ns theso statements were for reference on tho records at Columbia, it was reasonablo lo suppose that the Governor would have referred to them for his facts and figures. These statements show that from 18G5 to tho close of tho last fiscal year, 31st October, a period covering over three years, the total amount expended was $34,808, and this in currency. The accounts itemized, and showing what amouut for salaries, what for inci? dental exponses, ?fcc, including the agency at Columbia, established un? der tho Act of 18G5, charged with tho keeping and disbursement of tho public funds, nt an expense properly chargeable upon tho TreaBurj'. To this add $2,350, advanced for counsel fees in the defenco thrown upon the bank by tho suit of Dabuey, Morgan <fc Co., (approved by the proper officer of tho Court,) and ex? penses incurred in other minor cases, a full statcmont of which bas been furnished at an examination of tho bank by a committee of tho Legisla? ture, appointed in September, and wo havo a sum total of less than $39.000 in currency, instead of $00,000 in gold, ns stated in the Go? vernor's message. The .suit brought by Dabnoy, Morgan & Co., note-holders, made tho bank, with the Fire Loan credi? tors, defendants, and upon reference to tho master, the bank felt author? ized (with his approval) in making the advance for counsel fees; und the furthersum of $1,100, (included in the statement referred to above,) for ex? peles incurred for complainant note? holders. It is to be observed that the bank has in no case instituted legal pro? ceedings, but has been drawn into the courts by legal process upon suit instituted by others. So far from desiring to protract litigation, wo havo on tho contrary desired an early and equitable dispo? sition of the funds enjoined in our hands. Until very lately there bas been no action on tho part of tho Legislature to closo the operations of tho bank. Our offices were held under sanction of each successive Legislature, in? cluding the present, up to the pass? age of the Act of September, 1?SGS. The number of officers reduced to but two, other than tho President, and all with greatly reduced salaries, and the expenditures otherwise have been on tho most ecouominal basis. This explanation is due to tho Fire Loan creditors, charged with unwar? rantable litigation; to the court under which we act, and to tho officers of tho bank. THOS. P. WARING, Cashier. CHILD KILLED IN HACKLETOWN.-OU Sunday last two negro women, living in a place known as "Hackletown" to tho left of tho United States Arse? nal-got into a quarrel, the naturo of which we were unublo to learn, re? sulting in tho shooting by one at the other. Tho ball missed tho intended target, but struck her child, a little girl five or six years old, inflictind a mortal wouud, of which it has since died. Tho woman who fired tho shot immediately fled. No arrest has been made.-Augusta Chronicle. FENIAN SPEECH ?y A PHI EST.-De? spatches from Dublin say that tho nomination of Mr. O'Connor for member of Parliament from Sligo County, Ireland, was seconded by tho Rev. Mr. Conway, a Catholic priest, who, in his speech on the occasion, declared that tho Fenians in America wero stronger in members, organiza? tion and armament than ever; and should the rights of Ireland bo with? held, they would act at once; and on landing, all Ireland would join them. Tho election for Mayor and Corpo? ration Council of New York passed off quietly on the 1st. About twenty persons were arrested on charges of illegal voting. Tho total voto for Mayor was 90,OM. being about 8,000 ?ess than the vote of 1867. The Tam? many or Democratic nominees swept tho field-A. Oakey Hall was elected Mayor and Richard O'Gormnn Cor? poration Council. OD Friday last, a man named Fng leman, living at Carlinville, Ul., cut tho throat of bisdivorcod wife, nearly severing tho head iroin the body. Fugleman was arrested and li riged in jail. Yesterday, a mob of country people took him from j ul and hung him. I Tho dead body of a negro was found about three mih'H from Union Court House, on tho 2itli ult. No signs of violence were discovered, and the jury of inquest returned a verdict of visitation of God. OPENING OF STEWART'S NSW Sro BE. -Tho new addition to A. T. Stewart's dry goods store in Broadway, corner of Tenth street, was thrown open to the pnblio yesterday morning. No? where on the globe can there be found another suoh eetaulisbment. The building is about 200xb00 feet, and eight stories high, including thc low? est floor. In the basement is the oil? cloth department. The first floor proper is devoted to general dry good?, prnbracing thc following de? partments: Furs, flannels, blankets, linens, white and dress goods, domes? tics and sheetings, ribbons, linings, caliooes, silks, gloves, velvets, em? broideries, Yankee notions, laces, woolens, gentlemen's furnishing goods and hosiery. From tho centre of this floor, extending upward to the top of the building, is a large rotunda, surmounted by a glass dome. Tho sceno from the galleries of this rotunda is magnificent. On every sido one sccs six floors, supported by OG massive pillars, each bearing the monogram of Stewart, wreathed with beautiful deigns in iron and plaster. There are about 60 finely-wrought chandeliers on each of, tho lower floors. Tho gas-burners throughout tho entire establishment are lighted by electricity. The secoud floor is devoted to ladies' suits, cloaks, children's under-clothing, boys' suits, upholstery, and skirts of nil descrip? tions. The millinery department on this floor is very extensive, ono would judge, from tho largo number of young ladies engaged with their cus tomers. On the third floor ono muy find all kinds of carpets known, from the cheapest to tho most costly. Tho fourth iloor is to be occupied for ma? nufacturing purposes. Every variety of goods will be mado up here, em? ploying moro than 1,000 working girls. Each floor is supplied with j two dressing-rooms, and four flights of stairs run from tho ground to the roof. A view of the rotunda is worth going milos to seo, and tho thoughts that arise in ono's mind, on seeiug such an endless display of riches, call up more than ona dream of oriental splendor.-2fcu> York Tribune% 1st. ANOTHER ATROCIOUS MURDER.-Wc : learn that, on the morning of Thurs? day, tho 2'Jth of November, Mr. John Boss, of Marlboro, was found dead, under tho following circum? stances: Between 0 and 10 o'clock a. m., ho walked from his home at Hunt's Bluff, a little distance down the road. At about ll o'clock, a negro woman in bis employ, who had stepped out of the enclosure to get lire-wood, re? marked that sho thought, she heard some one groan. At 12 o'clock, some ono coming up the road, found the old man'lying dead on tho road-side, with a great bruise across one tem? ple, and his mouth knocked in. His watch and tho money he had on bis person (no great amount) were gone. The hope of finding a large amount on bis person, it is thought, prompt? ed the murder. As yet no clue to murderer or murderers has been dis? covered.- Darlington Democrat. Tho Charleston Advocate, we learn, is about to give up tho ghost. The General Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, North, at its re? cent session, made au appropriation of $2,000, toward its support, but it would appear that tho authorities of tho missionary societies do not con? sider tho sheet a quid pro quo for tho evangelical cash, and declino to pay over the amount. A Metho? dist paper, of similar proclivities, is, wo hear, to bo published in Atlanta, Georgia, instead of Charleston. [Charleston News. PAINFUL. ACCIDENT.-While two gentlemen of our town-Messrs. George Steele and S. C. Sadler were out huuting on Monday last, a painful accident occurred to Mr. Steele iu tho following manner : Mr. Sadler's gun being insecurely attach? ed to tho breech, dropped out, and the nipples striking upon a stouo us it fell, ono barrel was discharged, and tho contonts lodged in Mr. Steele's thigh, inflicting a serious and painful wound. Prompt medical assistanco was rendered, aud tho wounded man is doing well.- Yorkoille Enquirer. OUTRAGEOUS ASSAULT.-Two men, named Hiram and Peter Henton, wero arrested Sunday morning at Oswego, Now York, on a charge of committing an indecent assault, un? der most aggravating circumstances, upon the person of Carrie Parce, a child twelve years old, on Saturday evening, on tho Eric Railroad, a few miles west of Binghampton. It is doubtful whether their victim will live. It required mindi effort ot th officers to prevent tho lynching of tho prisoners. They are in jail in Bing hampton, and will be tried there.
