COLUMBIA, S. C. Saturday aHornin*?, August 27, 1870. Judge Orr Repudiated. Tho Anderson Intelligencer, theKooweo Courier, tUe Abbeville Press and Banner, tho Greenville Enterprise, tho Lanrons ville Herald, to soy nothing of other journals more removed from tue seat of Judge Orr's supposed strength, all repu? diate his reoent letter and its extraordi? nary sentimonts. Tho people that for? merly stood by Judge Orr, stand by him no longer. His political iufluenco in tho up-country is gone. The Reform canvass continues to bo actively prosecuted. Since the meeting hero, largo gatherings have been ad? dressed nt Winusboiro, Chester, Mount Carmel, Yorkville, Rook Hill-and tho other op point men ts, os laid down, are promptly met aa they roll rouud. Tho Reform candidates and other speakers are doing their duty, aud their whole duty. We observo that our friond Col. McKis sick is in the field, os the Uuion Reform candidate for Congress in tho Fourth Congressional District. Col. McKissick is a genuine Carolinian and a man of fine judgment and earnest character. He will, we hope and believe, be triumph? antly elected. RAIMIOAD ACCIDENT.-A diabolical attempt at wholesale murder was made ou last Tuesday night, near Lano's Turn? out, on tho North-eastern Railroad. Some fiend, worthy of being made a Scott constable, placed two heavy bai's of iron across tho track when the up passenger train was coming. Tho night being very dark, they escaped tho notice of the engineer, and tho cngino, "Daniel Ravenel," one of the finest passenger locomotivos in tho State, was thrown from the track and badly injured. Two cars were also smashed; yet, wonderful to relato, no ono was hurt. Tho perpe? trator has not yet been caught, but search is being made for a party who aro suspected. - Charleston News. TlS-PoT AIITJEY.-This is tho head? quarters of radicalism in our .small towu. Joseph Crews, (white,) hay n Trial Justice's office iu that quarter, while Wade Perrin, (colored,) deals in small wares. Both are members of the Le? gislature, and Wade a tenant of Joe. Ou Monday last, upon some misunder? standing, they mutually charged each other with "seeing light" while repre? senting Laurens in tho House of Repre? sentatives. Upon this they fell together by the ears, wheu Harry Madden, a friend of the darkest hue, carno between oud prevented serious damage. Joe dis? played a six shooter, and Perrin paraded a similar bloody-minded instrument. [La uren st* tile Herald. TUE RADICAL MOB.-On Tuesday night last, a crowd of sumo thirty or forty radi? cals, (colored,) mobbed aud beat un old colorod man, who at the last election voted tho Democratic ticket. With no officials in this community, except Scott's Magistrates and Constabulary, there is no protection against the mob. God gives to all menthe right of self defence. It is the part of manhood and wisdom that our people should be well prepared to protect themselves, their families and their firesides. The radical minions of Scott have instructed the radicals to maltreat all their color, who choose to think for themselves. [Laurcnsville Herald. Ou? Cituus.-Cotton aud corn iu this County aro looking ns well as those crops have for many years. Wo have exa? mined a number of cotton fields, and are pleased to notice that, generally, the cottou stalks have a larger numbor of sound bolls thau we ever saw in this State. Wo, however, regret to state that tho caterpillar has made its appearance, and much apprehension is felt about it. At present, no mischief has been done by thoso marauders, but tho fact thut they have perceptibly increased iu num? bers during the past week, give ground for alarm. So far as we have heard, they have not mado their appearance on more thau two plantations. - Union Times. TnE GUNS HAVE COME.-Six boxes of guns and two of accoutrements, for the "loil" militia, arrived at our depot last Saturday, aud five boxes of guns were left at Fish Dam ou tho same day. Whether they aro the Winchester rides or not, wo cannot say, but presume they aro only tho old style muskets, that kill from the muzzle and at the stock when they aro fired, as the boxes uro marked "repaired in 18(58." We hope Captain Heed will have more seuso and decency than his whiter-skin? ned neighbor, Crews, and keep his com? mand under better discipline. [Union Times. DWELLING: HOUSE BLUNT.-The dwell? ing housoof Mr. John R. Finley, resid? ing on Rabnn Creek, was burnt on the night of Friday last. Not an article of furniture or clothing of Mr. Finley or family was saved, the household supplies also being cou? su med. Tho origin of the fire is unknown, but supposed to have arisen from a cooking stove pipo. Mr. F. has the sympathy of the entire community in his serious loss. [Laurcnscille Herald.

ThoHe in Ward No. 2, on Tues? day evening, at the same placo and hour. Ward No. 3, at Palmetto Eogino House, on Wednesday, same hour. Ward No. 4, on Thursday evening, at tho samo placo and hour. SWill tho citizens of Richland wake up and do their duty, or will they continuo in? activo and slumber until ourliborties aro gone? Every man basa duty to perform in this contest, but many make excuses from taking part, fearing they may lose the patronago of certain moneyed Re? publicans. Others fear they will loso their positions. . To both classes wc would say, if tho issue goes against us, your hold upou offico, place and powor will be short. REFORM. Tile City Water Work-, Mn. ED iron: It is generally known that thc City Council have entored into an agreement with Mr. Sprnguo's agent to give him SlG.OOOpor annum, for twen? ty years, for supplying water, and ns the present cost of a sufficient supply is but 88,000, it will be seen that any citizen paying So a year will now have to pay $10, and so on in proportion; and judg? ing from the bungling terms of the con? tract, tho city stands a first-rate chance to loso tho whole nmount of tho cost of her Water Works. This is but tho commoncment of iniqui? tous city legislation and, if quietly borne, will check all improvements of city pro? perty and drive capitalists to moro fa? vored places. CITIZEN. ? ?? ? ? Instructions from Scute Executive Com? mittee. The Executive Committee of the Union Reform party beg leave to report tho following plan of organization for each County, and urge its immediate adoption. You aro charged with nam? ing tho central executivo committee re? siding at tho Court House, and wo sug? gest that you name sorao of either color, if practical, and not let your committee bc too large: 1. This committee must immediately appoint a sub-comuiitteo for each town? ship, beat, or some other practicable di? vision. 2. Each sub-committee should pro? ceed at once to organize its section into stubs or societies. ' 3. Each club or society should appoint an active, intelligent man to mako a list of every voter iu his township or section, with bis political proclivities opposite his name, 4. These lists should bo forwarded to the central committee at thc Court House, and consolidated, each club keeping a copy. 5. Every man favorablo to the reform movemeut should bo assigned tho duty of influencing one or more votes, and take charge of them on the day of elec? tion, nud see that '.hey reach tho polls, or remain away if unfavorable; and when the voters have no transportation, see that it is provided. G. On the day of election, two or three ilisercot and intelligent men should be assigned by the central executive com? mittee: to go to each election precinct, with a list of the voters alphabetically made out. and keep au account of the voters and challenge illegal voters. J. B. KERSHAW, Chairman. E. W. SEIJIL,i:.s, Secretary. AHMED BANDS.-On last Saturday, a largo body of armed negro militia from this point, Clinton and Martin's depot, marched through the country to Jack's old field, a rendezvous of a local militia company. The pretext of this long march wa?, that the whito mon would on that day drive the local militia from its muster-ground. Joe Crews aud a number of the Scott Constabulary, led the company from this quarter. About 1,000 armed men wero inarching on Friday night and Sat nrday, to this point. Old citizens, sixty and seventy years old, woro cursed and insulted by tho militia as they passed their residences. In ono case a lady was cur?sed aud told that her husband should be shot. These marchings and countor-march iugs of armed men through tho country will lead to bad results. If tho negroes want to muster, let thom drill at their own muster-ground, and then disperse. Colored men should huvo better sense than to bo amused aud fooled by their miserable white leaders, who will event? ually bring trouble ou tho country. [ La uren sville lien dd.

MYSTERIOUS DlSAPraA.RA.NOE.--Mrs. Vanderhorat, of South Carolina, (says tho Baltimore Sun, ol Wednesday,] mys? teriously disappeared from the sido of her friend, Mrs. General Wayne, while on thoir way to Saratoga Springs, a few days ago, and bas not since boen heard from, although detectives have made a thorough search at every point of the road whero they could hopo to find a cluo to her whereabouts. [Charleston Courier. Lovo and hangar are both poworfnl persuasivos, and often mako u mau do what, under other circumstances, he would not. There is nothing like lovo and hunger, to drive a mau mad or make him happy.

I.-The j September number, just received, closes j the first volume of The Rural Carolinian, I and confirms the claim, so handsomely I maintained throughout the volume, of : being a leading agricultural magazine. 1 The first number, which appeared iu October lust, was a sensation; but each ; number since has beeu so valuable, that ! we look for the appearance of the Rural I now as one of the important literary ; events of the month. j lu the September number attention is j at once attracted by a variety of novel J and interesting articles, such as Farm 1 ; Life in Brazil, Sugar Fanning, Wine j Couutry, and Cabbage Iusocts. The i latter is especially valuable, as it is tho ! ? roughly illustrated, and conveys practi? cal information in a practical manner. We congratulate Tim Rural Carolinian on its great success. Tun SECRET or SUCCESS.-The experi? ence of all who havo had to light the j battle of life, and who stand upon victo i rious vantage ground, is, that success ' which will stand the test of time is, for j the most pa?t, achieved by integrity and punctual attention to business. These qualities get ahead of genius and talent in the Taco ol* life. We notice in one of our most valued exchanges that mention , ! is made of a yoting mau slow of speech, I rather dull of apprehension, and uot i j enterprising in thc way of business, who ', j with diQiculty obtained au under situa l i tiou at a first-class business house. The ! ! clerk was industrious, constant, faithful and unflinchingly honest. His work was never too heavy, the hours of labor never too long, and his task never too humiliating. To-day that once plod? ding clerk is a pillar of strength iu his employer's house, and moro trusted and beloved than any other employee. Sniartuess is a good thing; grace and aptness are admirable characteristics; facilities for turning off work rapidly is excellent iu its way; but downright, old fashioned honesty of purpose, with plain straight-forward old-fashioned in? dustry, will mako tho strongest mark in tho lapso of years.
