"Wc regret to nnnonnce tho nrrest of two moro of onr citizens, upon what, we cannot bnt believe, the merest suspicion, tho idlest rumor, of some alleged complicity in thc murder of Martin and Randolph. On Weduesday afternoon, niter tho arrival of the train, State Constable Hubbard, with a posse of about niuo persons, some of them armed with Winchester rifles, and all of them otherwise equipped, entered Stone & Murray's cirons, during tho perform? ance, and arrested a young man named Stansell, of Cokesbury, under a misapprehension for one Stacey. After taking him out, they discovered their error and released him. During the afternoon Hnbbard obtained a warrant from Mr. McDonald, the Clerk of the Court, for tho arrest of Mr. Charles Dendy, of our village. The arrest was made, and when tho Clerk was about committing the pri? soner to Abbeville jail, Hubbard re? pudiated the anthority of the Magis? trate and claimed tho right, under general instructions from the Go? vernor, to arrest and carry off. The power ho exercised, and the next morning took his prisoii?r to Colum? bia. On his way, he also arrested Mr. Fletcher Hodges, at Hodges' Depot, and took bim likewise on tho train to Columbia. Mr. Dendy is charged with alleged participntion in the murder of Martin, and Mr. Hodges in that of Randolph. We feel assured that none who know the character of the young men, or any? thing of the circumstances of tho case, could believe for one moment that either of them could, in auy poasible way, have boon connected with those outrages. Mr. Dendy, we learn, has ample testimony to prove an alibi, and we suppose that Mr. Hodges will find no trouble in getting equally conclnsive evidence to vindicate his character. Whence does the Stute Constable derive his authority to arrest and hurry away our citizens beyond the limits of tho Judicial District? Does he pretend to derive it from the Go? vernor? Yet so far is tho Governor from having the power to imprison, that his agents find it necessary to obtain the imjrrimaiur of some Co? lumbia Magistrate before they lodge their prisoners in custody. The power we believe to be entirely un? authorized by our laws, and its exer? cise a violation of our constitutional rights.. Tho young men arrested by an armed posse from Columbia, bronght here at great expense to the State, might have been arrested by the weakest constable in the State. Wo are emphatically for law and order. We pledge ourselves to sus? tain both, if allowed to do it. But we insist that officers shall obey law as well as citizens. Peaco officers shonld not themselves break the peaco. We deny that Gov. Scott, or uny"ofli.:er of the State, baa thc right to^prrest tho innocent citizen, upon mere suspicion, or under a g^nerul warrant. Such ?irrest is itself a breach of law. And we utterly deuy that that executive officer, his Excel? lency tho Governor himself, or any of bia police, has tho right to drag a prisoner out of his County to Colum? bia. -Abbeville Press. THE Pore OF ROME.-Pius IX, after a very serious illness, has again appeared on the Corso. It is not generally known that he is now se? venty-eight years of age, having boen born in 1790, though the Annuarto Pontifico, repeatiug a mistake made in the reign of Gregory XVi, gives the date of bis birth as May 18, 1792. "Tho Pope always langhs," says a correspondent, when he takes up the Annuario, and the other day observ? ed: "They rob mo of two years, and I am so mnch older than the world gives me credit for." What will the World Sayl An analytical research into the rrtotivA rmtpar tnK?/il? jr??r?nlg tbe SC tiona of men, discovers tho fact that not only ia self-interest the govern? ing motive, but that a respect for the world's opinion is tho prime motor. Wo ask not ourselves, what will God think of us? But what will tho world say? It is of but little consequence if tho voice of religion admonishes us, or that "still small voice" within the human breast, which men call conscience, chides us, so that tho world approves or ap? plauds what we do. We care not for that reward which is promised to the just: "Well done, thou good and faithful servant," coming from tho heart of a Saviour; but cherish it and strivo to win it comino; from the lips of the world. If wo give charity to the nuedy, it is not given iu that spirit which would bide from tho right hand what the left hand doetb, but in u spirit of ostentation and display, that thc world may bear it or seo it, and give tho doer its reward of praise. Ohl the hollow-beartedness of such cha? rity I The praise which it so foolish? ly seeks, is tho only reward which it can receive. It is not that charity, which, like bread cast upon tho wa? ters, will como back after many days to bless tho giver, but a cold, unfeel? ing cbarit3', intended not to bless the receiver but tho giver; and so the reward follows quickly and surely the commission of the act. If wo deni justly with our fellow? men, it is not from houest motives, but because wo respect the world's opiuiou, and desire its praise. Even if wo go to tho altar of God aud prac tico tho precepts of religion, it is, alas, too often the case, that wo cart not what He thinks of us or our acts, but that we wish tho world to believe us good. And so we go on, Pharisee like-hypocrites in faith and act that wo may win good names ant golden opinions, and the benedic tiona of tho world. Well, that maj do for the present. But, how foi tho future? Will it Eave us in th< day of trial, and before tho jiulg mont seat of God? Will tho world'i approval stand there against om short-comings here, und win in tin great hereafter rewards which DU own acts have forfeited for us Surely not. Why then strive s< much to please a poor, helpless wicked world? Why desire its ap provul? Wiiy seek its applause There are higher and holier motive which should govern ns, and direc us in nil our actions. Tho love c God, the peace of a good conscienc? and the hopes of Heaven, should b the guides to take us through tb world, and, so scorning its praise, it follies, and its temptations, a great? reward than any the world can giv will await us-a reward no less tba the joys of Heaven promised to th faithful pilgrim over earth's desei wastes.-Banner of the South. GRANT'S Poucr. -Apparen tty \ man can havo a policy and not kno it. The idea tbut tho President elei is a porsou without a policy seen merely to have flowed from a misui derstunding in regard to tho use i words, aud is part of the diflereni that arises between tho com muni! and a man who never heard a thu "called by that name before." G rai bas, in fact, very positive ideas on great many subjects, and os tho wor pretty well knows that he is a mi who sticks to his ideas, we shall 1 astonished ii these firmly held viei do not in time make a very substa tial fabric of policy more p.uzzlil than pleasing to Congress. He bc for instance, rather close notions < national expenditure and simr thoughts in regard to economy. 1 believes that a nation in debt, ns tl nation is, and actually not meeti its obligations already incurred, li no right to go on incurring new ob gntious; and wo fancy that the pin people will concur with him in th Here, then, is a point of policy tho most extensive import, lt sound in morality and iu finance, I we c.inuot hope that the Congreasir, al jobbers will accept it. There is now no doubt that amii bio relations between the Presidt and Gen. Grant will soon bo re tablished. Tho Christmas nmnei proclamation received tho entire i probation of tho President elect 1 foro Mr. Johnson'? Signatare was j to it, and as it ia well known that 1 General has been consulted un vnrit other important State matters, i fair to presume that nothing rema to confirm the entente cordiale tween the o".t-going and the iu-co ing Executives but the formal sh ing of hands. Gen. Grant determined to have peace. f New York Herald A lady-killer-Co/sote. _SPECIAL NOTICES. _ C?NVAI.ESCRNCP. -After - ?kc-c bas boon conqacrccl, tborc is ?till tho weakness that it leaves behind it to be removed.
