COLUMBIA, g G. Wednesday Morning, Joly 14,1869. SAMBO, JOHN CHINAMAN, AND THE MOR? MONS.-The Kew York Herald quo les from the Salt Lake Telegraph-Mormon organ-to show that those people have no objection whatever to the introduc? tion of Chinese population into any part of the United States. That journal says as to the Johnny's devotions, the secta? rians should bs really glad of his Baying his prayers to anything as long os they were the prayers of his heart, and that if hie idols ore mean looking things, some inventive Yankee will assist him in fur? thering his idea of architecture. It in? vites him. to come, if his inclination prompts him, and says if he is treated os his 'station only demands, he will not want to get into Congress, ask to be ap? pointed Minister to Hayti, or postmaster at Macon, Ga., without any bondsman, or commit outrages upon defenceless fe? males. The Herald says these are dagger thrusts at Sambo, and show how much the Mormons esteem him. It says: "The fact is, Sambo and Dinah havo been getting along a little too fast in this country, within a very few years past, to suit the interests of any class of people. In the end, the blacks, as laborers, will find themselves crushed between the up Ser and nether mill-stones-tho Irish, berman, and other Europeans on one hand,- und tho Chinese and other Asiatic immigrante on the other. Even the once despised Mormons do not come to tho rescue of the negro, now clothed in all the glory a state of freedom can confer apon him." RAILROAD MEETING TN LANCASTER.-A respectable number of tho citizens of Lanoasler County, representing much of the wealth and intelligence, convened at the Court Hoase on Monday, 5th inst., for. the parp?se of taking immediate notion in relation to the proposed "S. C. Control," and "Wateree and North Caro? lina Railroads." On motion of Mr. D. J. Carter, John B. Erwin, Esq., was called to the chair, and John Brown requested to act ns Sec? retary. Mr. Erwin explained the object of tho meeting, dwelling at length upon the advantages of railroad facilities, and tho superior quality of oar lands and its pro? duct, urging the people to come forward and perform a duty obligatory upon every citizen. Mr. Allison introduced the following preamble and resolutions; which were unanimously adopted: Whereas, it is universally recognized to be the part of patriotism, for the citi? zen to exert the powers of mind and body, with which he has been endowed by nature, to the development of the material resources of his country, and to ad-anoe the prosperity and happiness of the whole people; and thus join in the march of progress and improvement exemplified by the most enlightened peo? ple: Resolved, That we, tho people of Lancaster County, animated by such de? sires, und flushed with a hope of success, unanimously declare that a railroad is the great desideratum upon which our shattered fortunes are to be reconstruct? ed and futuro prosperity based. 2. That it is tho senso of this meeting that a railroad should be constructed through this County as speedily as practicable, 3. That James L. Beed, John D. Wylie, Wm. A. Moore and W. M. Con? nors, are hereby requested to open im? mediately a correspondence with tho President and Direotors of the South Carolina Railroad Company; and also with W. M. Shannon, Joseph B. Ker? shaw, John M. DeSaus3uro, James Dun? lap, James A. Young and James M. Da? vis, corporators of tho "Watereo and North Carolina Railroad Company," chartered at the recent session of tho Legislature, and aseortain what facilities have been offered and means employed, for the construction of said last mention? ed road. 4. That our delegation to the Stato Legislature are hereby requested to open a correspondence ut once with the cor? porators of tho "Central Bailroad Com? pany," ohartered at tho last session, and ascertaiu what progress in tho construc? tion of said road has been mude, and whether it bo tho purposo to run said rood through Lancaster County. On motion, it was resolved, that when this meeting adjourns, it adjourn to meet the first Monduy in August, proximo. Senator Robinson, of South Carolina, was serenaded in Cincinnati, a few nigh ts ago, and responded in n few well-timed and appropriate remarks, inviting all who wished to migrate to the mof.t beau? tiful portion of our noble Union to como to South Carolina, where they could lind obeap and good lauds, and afine, healthy climate. He cordially invited persons of both political parties, promising them ?erfeet freedom of speech and opinion, [e urged them to come and investigate the political and financial condition of the country, promising them they had nothing to fear, for they would be hospi? tably welcomed. A wedding took place near Dry Grove, Miss., a few days sinoe, in which the bride had scarcely reached her tooth year, the groom being over six feet high and thirty-eight years of age. MB. EDITOB: I Mk the use of your columna to make a statement relative to my repent connection with the post office of thki city, SUB one of the employees. As its affairs hnve been so publicly dis? cussed since the appointment of the pre? sent incumbent, it is duo to myself and friends that I should define my position there. A few days previous to my enter? ing upon my duties, Mr. Wilder called on me and tendered me the position of his obiof clerk, stating that he wished me to take charge of the books, the "money order business" and the "regis? tered letter' department; also stating that he had engaged his other assistants. As this was the first intimation he had given me of his intention to proffer me employment, J was not prepared to give him on answer at the time, but in a day or two afterwards signified my accept? ance of the situation and entered upon its duties on 1st Juno. Finding the ne? cessity very great for my services at dif? ferent times in other departments than my own, I rendered them cheerfully and believe they were available and endea? vored in all respects to perform my la? bors promptly and faithfully in the inte? rest of the postmaster nul courteously and obligingly towards all whom I served. The labors, trials and embarrassments of tho office were inorensed towards the middle of tho month by tho sickness of one of the assistants, and hence heavier duties devolved on Lue others; but thoy wore then performed with less trouble and annoyance than previously, as all had become more familiar with their re? spective duties in the office. That mis? takes were made in the delivery of letters and papers at first, as well ns in other respects, was unavoidable; tho same mis? takes, however, might have happened and really, to some extent, have occurred at the hands of the most experienced in that department of the Government. Bot after tho month of Jane had passed and all were prepared to continue their duties with less confusion and embarrass? ment than at first, and after the "reports" and "returns" for the quarter ending 30th June, had all been made and ren? dered to the department at Washington, and wc had more time to systematize the operations of the office for thc quarter upon which we had entered, I was sur? prised on the morning of the 3d of July, by the announcement of the postmaster, that ho had, on the night previous, after he had parted from me, made another arrangement for the conduct of the office, stating that it roos for no fault with me, but ho folt compelled to net as he had ; adding, that the anxiety of mind ho suffered was too Rreat for him to bear, and ho hoped that ho would be relieved by having tboso who bad for a long time been familiar with the office in their old places. The announcement, relieving mo, was as sud den and unexpected as the offer made to me. In tho course of the same day, I delivered my books, and so forth, into tho hands of my successor, who received thom, saying, after examination, that they were correct. The postmaster also expressed himself entirely satisfied with the manner in which I had discharged my duties. As to the cause of my super cession and the re-instatement of Mr. Leaphart, absolutely none was assigned, for the simple reason, that none could be, so far as my foll efficiency and de? portment were to be regarded. If cun? ning, self-seeking, artful approaches or mischievous inuendoes have deceived tho postmaster and advanced the temporary convenience of my successor, I am per? fectly willing that the reward and the honor shall be enjoyed by him. In regard to the incumbent, I will say that I believe he is more than anxious to give satisfac? tion to the public, and that his assistants in tho office with me, so far as I could judge, performed their duties faithfully. I would not have permitted so long a time to elapse before making this state? ment, but that I had reason to expect, from day to day, that it would be made by thc postmaster himself. Rospeotfully, &o., P. B. GLASS. REsPONSinnirry OF SUBETTES.-In the United States Gonrt there were tried yes? terday, a number of cases which involve tho question of the responsibility of sureties on official bonds. As the ques? tion is one of a public interest, we give tho facts. After the close of the war, G. L. Keach was appointed postmaster at Aiken, S. C., and Messrs. Wm. Gregg and Nathaniel O. Tilton were sureties on his official bond. In December, 186G, tho sureties notified tho Government that the postmaster was misapplying tho funds, aud that thoy would no longer bo responsible for his official good conduct. Keach was, however, not removed until soruo time after, when it was discovered that ho was in default to the amount of 8670. Action was brought by the Go? vernment against him and against his sureties. Under thechargo of tho Judge, tho jury returned a verdiot against tho sureties for $200, with interest from tho 3l8t of December, 1866, upon the ground that the notification of tho defendants and the faot that the Government took no notice of it at the time, released tho sureties from responsibility after that time. The District Attorney gave notioo of an appeal.-Charleston Courier. An English paper says it is not at ali an uncommon thing for ladies traveling in first class railway carriages to cut down and carry away the silk curtains of the windows, for the parp?se of making aprons of them. So general did the practice become on one line, that all new curtains were made of material that was not worth stealing. A company of Chinese athlete? asto? nished the people of San Francisco, re? cently, with sn exhibition of their agili? ty. About nf teen of them appeared on tho stage amid the din and clangor of gongs and kettle-drums. They first fought a sham battle with swords, cleavers, pole-axes, lancee and short knives. The fencing was vet/ rapid, ana each fighter wes an expert Bt?lt^tfM warrior stood against a hook 'IJe/'O^k armed his antagonists aa fast as they came: hurled them about the stage; stab? bed them, hewed them with broad axes, hacked them with swords, batted-them with his head, kicked them in the .breast with both feet at once, and yet found time to execute hand-springs and vault? ing somers aal ts among thom aa he fonght. At last he vanquished. All his foes and the half-naked rascals took to flight. He pursued. Some rough tables were ranged along the front of the stage to represent hedges, rooks, logs and banks, which must obstruct pursued and parsaer alike. The runners vaulted the tables, turning lofty summersaults over each, and landing indifferently on their feet, hands, heads and backs, as the caso might be, and that, too, on a hard stage, covered only with a few strips of mat? ting. The victorious fighter, a splendid acrobat, was always after them. Several times one of his foes would turn and face him, when he would bound high in the air, and plunging down, plant both feet in the breast, of his adversary with such foroe as to send him head-long across the stage. Tho Alta says that if ever a troupe of these sturdy and well trained athletes were put to a fair test of physical activity und strength, they could handle a regiment of the lazy, lank-limbed, whiskey-sodden ruffians and cowards who make a pasttimo of ston? ing, beating and throwing about China? men in tho public streets of that city. The next sensation in Boston is to be a Hand Organ Convention, when all tho one-armed aud one-legged soldiers of the Union are to bo gathered together to grind out "the bond-holders dirge" over their sleeping comrades, and to bo addressed by Borie, A. T. Stewart, Jay Cooke and Stanton, upon "how sweet 'tis to die for one's country," when the dying is confined to hair and whis? kers. It is said that the proprietors of the celebrated PLANTATION BITTERS rent no less than nine pews from the different denominations in New York city for all those of their employees who will occupy them regularly, freo of charge. This is certainly praiseworthy, and it is to be hoped that others who employ a large number of peoplo will follow tho exam? ple. The above fact, accompanied with tho belief that a firm who would look =<> closely after tho morals and welfare of their exployees, would not undertake to impose upon tho public, has induced us to give the PLANTATION BITTERS a trial, and having found them to be all that is represented, we cordiully recommend them as a tonic of rare merit.

There is, says tho New York Time?, so much dissatisfaction iu New Zealand with the oonduot of the English Govern? ment toward the colony regarding the war with the aboriginees, that there are actual threats among the colonists of n i severance from British authority. Not ' nly have the New Zealand newspapers suggested the idea of independence, but prominent public men are turning their thoughts in the same direction. The London Spectator regards the matter as having already taken a serious shape, and speaks of the probability of the harsh policy of Lord Granville goading the colony into secession. Tho Spectator also expects that the "demand of New Zealand for independence xviii be fol? lowed byan application for a protectorate to some other power-say the United States of America or Prussia." (ton. Forrest has made arrangements to secure, within the next two months, 1,000 Chinese, ns laborers upon a South? ern railroad, which he has contracted to make. An agency hus been established in St. Louis for supplying, nt the short? est notice, whatever number of Chinese may bo culled for from any part of the country, and that agency hos already I ordered 50,000. A grand enterprise for I the introduotion of Chinese, to be em I ployed upon the plantations of the South, has been vigorously iuaugurated at Mem? phis. A reporter of the New York Sun strangely passer from grave to gay in the following paragraph: "The bar-room of the Astor House has been neatly painted, and adorned in the highest style of art; and tho parlors and sleep? ing rooms have been furnished with nearly 300 Bibles, presented by the American Bible Society. A now ?tock of choice liquors hus been laid in for summer use." BITTEN TO DEATH.-Last week, two co? lored women, liviug iu the neighborhood of Goose Creek Bridge, S. C., went out to pick huckleberries, and while engaged in so doing, ono of thom was struok in the breast by a large rattlesnake. Death ensued almost immediately, and so rapid I did mortification ensue that it was found necessary to bury her on tho spot. The editor of the Wisconsin Banner says: "Wednesday's mail brought to us a letter addressed 'Kev.,' another the 'Hon.,'another 'Col.,'ono 'Mr.,' and the last 'Esq.' On tho way to dinner we ac? cidentally stepped on a woman's trail, and she addressed us thus: 'You brute.'" A lady was examining an applicant for the office of "maid of all work," when she interrogated her as follows: "Well, Mary, can you scour tinware with alacri? ty?" "No, ma'am," replied Mary, "I always scour them with saud." ANEOBO ROUTE AGENT.-Postmaster General Cresswell has appointed Louis Pleasant, a bright mulatto, route agent on the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad. Tho negro has accepted tho position, and made his first trip ou last Monday. Major Fersen, a distinguished Russian officer, who has led a warrior's life in many countries, recently effected a mira? culous escape from the dungeons of Pa? raguay, and fully confirms all the stories iu regard to the cruelties of Lopez. The Erie Dispatch is informed that Chas. White, the lion tamer of Thayer's menagerie, was killed and oaten nearly up by tho lions on Friday night, at a small town in Michigan. A young man of Memphis has appear? ed ia St. Louis to claim the reward of $100 advertised for news of a missing girl. He married her the other day, after a successful elopement. A majority of persons living in tho South aro predisposed to diseases of the Liver, and most of tho pains and aches complained of aro owing to a deranged state of that important organ. Tho Simmons' Liver Regulator is the great remedy for tho diseases iucidentto a dis? organized Liver, Dyspepsia, Constipa? tion, Sick Headache, Female Irregulari? ties, etc. One says: It has done me more good than any medicine I ever used.
