The tnombero of the present General
Assembly, elected on the Beform and
Independent tickets, composing the anti
radical olemont in that body, hare a
heavy responsibility resting upon their
shoulders, and a high dnty to disoharge.
They represent, however inadequately,
in point of their namber, that large por?
tion of tlio people of the State who,
since the era of radical reconstruction,
hare been virtually disfranchised, and
mado Gliens in their own land. We have
no reason to doubt that they will bo un?
equal to the emergenoy. By organiza?
tion and unanimity, by vigilance, ac?
tivity, Uot and sagacity, the anti-radioal
members can influence legislation, ex?
pose corruption and fraud, and lu gene?
ral, do much for the genuine interests of
the State. We know that their position
is not an agreeable one. But let them
Stand, a Spartan band, resolutely de?
voted-to the honor and the weal of South
Carolina, and they will find their reward
in the improvement of our condition,
andin the hearty approval of that ele?
ment which, now lies fettered for the
moment, but which bides its time to re?
assert the sway of MIMD and the dignity
O? VIBTOB.
A Volee from th? Country.
Hs. Eraron: Tko radicals told those
who advocated "reform" in the Govern?
ment, that they would correct the abuses
themselves. One of their most noticea?
ble demonstrations in thia direction was
the election of the notorious White?
more to the Senate from Darlington
County. This man, after having been
expelled from Washington, os unfit to
occupy a seat there, now goes to Colum?
bia, as a bright ornament of the Repub?
lican party, sent there from Darlington,
to dignify and adorn the Senate of South
Carolina. In the vereise of an enlarged
charity, this may ">e attributed to the
oimplicity of the Darlington voters-but
the public are looking with great curi?
osity to ascertain how he will be received
in the Senate Chamber by those who are
to sit in judgment on his "qualifica?
tions," and to decide whether they are
willing to oink themselves to his level,
and invite him to a seat amongst them.
We shall now see what grave Senators
think of reform, and whether they, too,
like the Darlington voters, are willing to
be responsible before the world fur ac?
cepting as their equal a member who has
been twice rejected at Washington by
the Republican party, and pronounced
unworthy of a seat amongst tho Repub?
licans there.
No matter which way they decide, tho
country will be no gainer. If they say
that Whitemore ia abundantly good
enough to have a seat amongst those re?
cently elected to the Senate of South
Carolina, the world will readily under?
stand what difference there may be be?
tween Whittemore and those who iuvite
his companionship. The whole crowd
will be deemed equally worthy of the
soorn and contempt of mankind, and
public opinion throughout tho United
States will be aroused to the vindication
of the Republican party from tho false
position into which its so-called friends
have dragged it, and this will be u utop
in the right direction.
Oa the other hand, if they decide in
accordance with tho Republican verdict
nt Washington and think they too are
the enemies of officiai corruption, this,
also, will ba a step in the right direction,
and in either way, tho country will be
the gainer. The issue is bofore them and
theirs is the responsibility. "RUS."
ALABAMA. CLAIMS-RUSSIA AND THE
UNITED STATES, &O.-It has been official?
ly ascertained in Washington that the
letter for the recall of Minister Motley
ia now on its way to England. Until it
shall have been received by him he will
of course be regarded as the representa?
tive of this Government at the British
oourt, and therefore the report telegraph
si from London that Mr. Moran, tho
American Secretary of Legation, had re?
ceived a despatch from Secretary Fish
relative to the Alabama claims, with in?
structions to present it to Lord Gran?
ville, must be a mistake. The Washing?
ton Sunday Chronicle also announced
yesterdnyJin a double-leaded article, "on
the authority of tho President," that
"Secretary Fish, of the State Depart?
ment, had not sent any despatch to Mr.
Moran on the subject of the Alubama
claims, nor has the United States enter?
ed into any 'secret understanding' with
Russia." An associated press despatch,
usually reliable in regard to all matters
pertaining to the State Department and
the diplomatic service, says "that there
is no authority to warrant the denial that
a despatch on that subject (tho Alabama
claims) was sent to our representative,
(Mr. Motley,) but tho assumption in
England that Russia and tho United
States have a secret understanding does
not appear to have a good foundation."
According to tho Chronicle, the President,
it is stated, regards the question of tho
Alabama claims, or rather tho settlement
thereof, as resting with Great Britain,
and that that Government must now
take tho initiative in any further nego?
tiations on the subject. But, on the
other hand, it is tho fact that the Ala?
bama olaims question remains unchang?
ed nineo the rejection of tho Johnson
Clarendon treaty by the United States
Senate, and the British Government
continues to insist that it now behooves
this Govornment to propose terms of
settlement, inasmuch as it rejected those
submitted by the English cabinet.

z? thc Whole, to consider the conditio:
>f affairs in certain portions of th

Benjamin Boseman was called to th
3hair.
Mr. W. J. Whipper then addressed th

uavo a general expression of opinion 01
the deplorable condition of affairs in th
?tate; that members of tho Legislatur
wero obliged to como thero by stealth
ind that in EdgeQeld and other place
Lhere was no safety of life; that th
liope had been expressed that the dagge
might ba driven lo tho heart of ever,
one of the miscreants who pretend t
govern us; aud that this work must b
lone in tho dark; and that Genen

the. Speaker'? stood, and facing tho
House, without the motion hoing adopt
od. He these told a pitiful tale abont
"uiodud my eon," finding it necessary
to ran away and hide in the woods ana
ander piles of cotton. He said his
"party" has a majority there, but with
tears in his eyes he implored the Le?
gislature to dc something *o protect
thom. Those who troubled him, he
said, can raise 6,000 men in six boors.
"They are not the trash, not the drink?
ing rowdies, but the most respectable
men of the country." He said he knew
tho mon who produced and acted in this
disturbance. And a colored member
asked why they were not arrested? He
replied that the constabulary was not
able to arrest them. A colored member
then asked what is tho use of a consta?
bulary?
Mr. Wilkes, conservative, thou ad?
dressed the Committee, saying that he
deeply deplored the state of affairs, and
rinking tlie members to come to tue con?
sideration of the means of remedying it,
free from all party feeling, but in the
spirit of representatives of a great and
noble people. The law recognises no
such distinction as Eepublican or Re?
formist, or white or black, and he would

tho respectable people of tho State were ]
responsible for tho disturbance at Lan

calculated to bring tho offenders to jus?
tino and put a stop to lawlessness.

Tha-Stoto Fair is said to bave been a I
ouooeas both in the completeness
io exhibition and' toe largeness\of
attendance. Every department ?ras
I represented. There fros ? fine dis?
play of horses, cows, goats and sheep; of
field crops; of tho varied products of
household economy and domestic skill;
in the mechanical department, and in the
fine arts. In the list of snoaessful com?
petitors we are glad to see the names of |
many from Abbeville; of many, who,
bearing off the prize al onr own District
Fair, were equally successful upon a
wider arena and with a moro activo com?
petition. This is as it should be. The
District Fair should be auxiliary to tho
State Fair, opening its lists and awarding
its premiums to thoso who have proved
victors upon a moro circumscribed field
of competition.
The attendance was perhaps larger
than on any previous occasion and the
oity was crowded to overflowing. The
weather was fine, and thousands were
daily present npon tho Fair Grounds,
iorming a most brilliant array of repre?
sentatives from every part of the State.
The success of the Fair affords a cheer?
ing augury of the industrial future of
the State. In contributing to its pros?
perity, the Society promises to form one
of its most efficient agencies. This effi?
ciency will bo very mach increased by
the formation of an auxiliary joint stock
company, the features of whioh ure Bet
forth in au artiole in another column, to
which we especially call attention.

In Yadina, Colorado, election day,
four herders from Northern Texas aud
three Now Orleans gamblers were play?
ing a game of poker, when a quarrel
arose between Joe Bigger, a Texau, and
Orestes Wat rous, one of the gamblers,
which it was decided to fight out with
bowie-kuives on horse-buck. The com?
batants wore divested of their coats and
shirts, and their knives wero bound to
their right bauds. They wore then placed
sixty yards apart, with orders to ride at
each other full speed, passing on the left
side. Both were splendid horsemen.
Bigger was mounted on a clean-limbed,
fiery pony, a little o/fer fourteen hands
high, while Watrous rode a large "watch
eyed," vicious roan. Eight times they
hurled their horses upou each other,
and each time fearful wounds were given
with terrible weapons, till at last Wat?
rous, weakened by two ghastly stabs in
the thigh, could not wield his knife, and
Bigger drove bis weapon into his heart.
Bradford, another gambler, seeing his
friend's fate, shot Bigger dead, when
free fight ensued with revolvers, and
Bradford was killed and two others of
the party badly wounded.
The idea of tying a railway director on

relate that in several instances on the

has been interfered with by their coun?
