COLUMBIA, 'S. "C. Friday Mor nine. Juno 8, 187L' Tno ?Nt\v Departure" In Store. Oar ootemporary of the New Orleans Times holds that tho elementa o? the new departure that is in ?toro look ra? ttier to measures than to men-to prac? tical results for the public benefit rather than to the schemes bf individual ag? grandizement. It says: "It is high time blatant demagogues and prof essional politicians were brought tb do duty in tho ranks and disciplined to know that tho opportunity for lead? ing the masses by the nose through any gate they choosy to open, belongs to the past, and that.henceforth party leaders must be in foot what they have hereto? fore only been in profession-"repre? sentative men." Nearly a century's ex isteuoo has worn off muoh of tinselled self-suffiaionoy and balderdash which un? ter?! so largely iuto the earlier political history of this country, and besides this, we are more closely crowded. Peoplo begin to have wauls und necessities which sorely press them, ambitious and desires as dear as they appear difficult of attainment-life is moro serious and time more valuable than in the curlier days of the republic. The new depurt nre,. therefore, in store, is a departure from the old class of stamp statesmen, impeoanioas office-seekers and wrang? ling wiro-workers, who have so long con? trolled the maohinery of politics, nod government, too, for that matter. Both Yullandighnm and Campbell are mem? bers of this class, and their day ?3 over, "What we want now to resoue the coun? try is the triumph of measures without reference to men. He who obeys best will lead best. Certain great tenets are to be vindicated; certain old breaks and rents in the republican superstructure bequeathed by oar forefathers have to be repaired or restored, regardless of in? dividual opinion or personal ambition. The great Democratic party, as wo tuke it, is.not to outer into future oontests to fight for tho. spoils of victory, but for oar' spoliated'liberties, the vindication bf truth, and the country's destiny. No pigmy wars aro to fill up the political future, but strifes of giants, in which auch, burnt ont rockets as we havo named, and thousands more that could be named, will not prove worth their feeding. To ?he men, be they now pro? minent or obscuro, seated iu. a legisla? tive 'chair or toiling nt a plow handle, who are keeu enough to probe thia great want underlying- the whole ethic's o? American pol?tica and oapablo of re? sponding to it, will belong the future honors of tho people. This is the new departure in store for us all-a departure from vain-glorious frivolity into honest, earnest effort-a departure from supine submission to knavery, to a war in vin? dication of truth sud honor-a depart? ure from a night of bitterness and sor? row into a dawn of glory and prosperity. You, Messrs. Yallandigham and Camp? bell,' are merely among the first victims weighed in the balance aud found want? ing. Stand aside all such, and make way for tho triumphant march of the peoplo." We think.there is much of truth and loree iu these .suggestions. Too often has it been the case that tho great musB of the people have been used simply as tools tu advance the private ends of po? litical schemers and wire-pullers. Tho sooner a change is made in .this respect, tho better. The New York World, of the 6th, says: "The letter from Harrisburg upon the subject of minority representation, which appenred in yesterday's World, shows tho progress which has recently been made iu Pennsylvania by the friends of a moro equitable system of representation than that whioh has hitherto prevailed throughout tho coun? try. Only those who have closely watched the course of public opinion upon this subject, are awaro how rapid has latterly been the growth of the con? viction ' that our present mode of elect? ing candidates by a majority vote is not in accordance with thu truo theory of Democratic government. The system of cnmulative voting is soon to go into operation in Illinois, and tho eight or ten States which ure soon to revise thoir constitutions will all, doublions, adopt some form of minority representation. Tho success whioh has been attained in behalf of this measure in Pennsylvania has been rapid and marked, and is duo in a great degree to the exertion of tho Hon. Oharies R. Buckalew, ex-Senator from that State." THE LATE MASSAORB OP INDIANS.-A full report from Lieutenant Whitman, of the Third Oavalry. commanding the post at Camp Grant, Arizona, concern? ing the massacre of Indiana encamped at Rio Privapoo, by whites from Tuc? son, contains but few foots beyond those already pnblishod. The statement is made that upon the arrival of ari oxpress from Captain Dunn, at Camp Lowell, giving information of the departure of hu? whiten, Lieutenant Whitman sent a party to the Indian camp. They found it deserted and the dead bodies of the womon and ohildren left on the ground. The party had left by way of tho pass of the Canudo del Oro, taking some captivos. Lieutenant Whitman writes that since these Indians have been at this post they havo done everything in their power to prove their sincerity and good faith. They will be likely to sus? pect some treaohery on tho part of the military. If possible I shall get a mes? senger to them, but doubt if it will be possible to get them to return. Steps haye beon taken to savo tho women and children who were captured for their friends, and a life of debauched servi? tude. THE CUMULATIVE SYSTEM OP VOTINO. - "A. B. W*.," iu.whoje ipitials xtfi reeog-. nize one?'bf the?^nost pifomihenl^citixeuB of Sp?$anbnrg<( ha* ?tu artiolbion Iji?B. subject in tb.o Spartan, from whiohtwe maka-ibo foUowiug extract:X. ;; Gov. Manning's argument against th?3 measure was neither clear nor con? vincing to my mind. The point he seems to make is the humiliating thought that "the peoplo who controlled the Go? vernment- of South Carolina from the time.when . it. first became a colony are to.bp c.opGued to .this ono , point.." He seems td 'forget that we are now below ? this point, and if. wa aro tb .renoir'it br go beyond it, tho? it must bd'n'prbgrcss ive work, and to be attained by arduous labor and self-denial. We must grapplo with things'as they are, not us they o?oe wore, .or'as "we would., wish them to.fbe}. and iu this particular case,. I um in favor of layiug ?old j of whatever presents, it? self, if it is but iu the direction of what wu wish to accomplish. I DUI in favor of this plan of voting for two reasons First, I think it is right; right that minorities should be protected and heard, and although it might not bo pro? per for thom to rule or control, yet as they have to bear their share of tho bur? dens of government, so they should bo permitted to speak and receive an honest, just consideration for the interest they ropresent. If the Democratic party of South Curolina were iu tho ascendency, still it would be just and right that the minority should be fairly aud honorably represented. Second, I am iu favor of it, because it is one step towards the end for which we are working. It is true if this plan be adopted Spar tanburg may lose one of tho present class of representatives, and tbeso beiug good men it would seem hard to make the ex? change. But for tho general good we can afford to do it. The good of the whole State is what we should work for, and uot any mere sectional pride or per? sonal gratification. The moral effect that would be produced by tho presence and influence of forty-five good mon would be felt for good. Who can fail to seo how one good mau, as ho stands up in tho majesty and strongth bf truth aud honesty of purpose, sends terror and confusion to the hearts of those bent on mischief! So would tho presence of those men dctor much of tho mischief and frustrate many of tho ovil designs that have their origiu and completion in our corrupt Legislature. 1 speak only for myself in this matter, and while I do not claim that everything may be accom? plished by it, yet it is' worth a trial, and may lead to beneficial results. BLOODY AFFRAY.-The Federal Union says: On Friday afternoon last, a diffi? culty occurred nt Davis' store, in Wil? kinson County, Ga., near the Baldwin line, between Messrs. William Davis and Daniel H. Tucker on one side, and Ro? bert and Jack Parker, brothers, on the other. Robert Parker was killed; Wm. Davis was shot three times, two of the balls passing through bis body, inflict? ing mortal wounds, it is thought, but ho j is still living; D. H. Tucker was shot in four places-iu tho face, shoulder aud arm, and is. seriously wounded. 1>. Herty, who is attending him, is hopeful of his recovery. Jack Parker is thought to be only slightly wounded. Wo arc informed that a previous difficulty oc l curred between Mr. Jack Parker aud I Mr. Tucker, and at the timo the shoot? ing took pluce tho attack was made hy the Parkers on Tucker. Mr. Davis carno to his (Tucker's) assistance and became involved in the difficulty. An inquest was held over tho body of Robert Par? ker, and a verdict of justifiable homicide rendered in the case of Tuoker and Da? vis. Wo also learn, since writing tho abovo, that Mr. Davis is better, and hopes are entertained of his recovery. Dr. Sedillot, of Lyons, who during tho course of the recent French war has observed over 1,500 cases of gun-shot wounds, and has himself performed fifteen amputations in a single day, has written a paper calling attention to the extensive mutilation of the parts caused by tho projectiles of the present day. According to Dr. Sedillot, the best rule is to amputate on tho second or third day after tho infliction of the wouud, before tho period of inflammation has set in. lu consequence of tho oxtonsive suppuration, caused by tho projectiles now in uso,'the following rules are re? commended So be observed: First, that tho wound should be reduced to tho smallest diameter] second, a freo exit of pus should bo favored; and third, a radi? cal reform in tho method of amputation should bo adopted, to wit: that tho ex? tremity of the bone, instead of being enclosed in the flesh, should be left sticking out. The great cancer specific, tho discovery of which was recently announced through the State Department, is tho "Cundurant" root. Fifty pounds of the plant havo lately been furnished from Quito to the physicians of Now York, Paris and London, for test and analysis. The substance in its natural state is a viraient poison when administered to persons in health, but is, strangely enough, said to bc a sovereign cure to cancerous or scrofulous affections. Mea? sures have boon taken to test its efficien? cy in both army and navy. The dis? covery, if found possessed of the virtues attributed to it, will mark au era in the progress of medicinal science. [New Orleans Times. A child of Private McCoy, of Troop C, Seventh Cavalry, aged two years, was poisoned accidentally, on Monday even? ing last, by drinking a portion of some concentrated lye that was boing used about tho house. All the usual remedies were resorted to by the physicians who were called in, and, as the child is still living, it is hoped that its life may bo savod. - Chester Reporter. HORRIBLE.-A Purin letter.o' ?he.Slat ult. Bays: A most revolting sight occur red'this morning on the plaza in front of thd'Hotel de Ville. Thirty-three Oom maniata, among whom were seven wo- I men, were shot in a body of a company | of soldiers. ? Around throe Bides of the squaro troops to the number of 1,500 were drawn up, under, theeommand of Col. Guizot. At 8 o'clock, the prison? ers, who had beeu confined in the coal cellars back of the portor's lodge in tho Hotel de Ville, were brought out, tboir hands tied behind their backs, and then marched ont by the main gateway through a double file of soldiers, and,: having reaohed the centr?'of the .wide area iu front of the Hotel .de .Ville, were ranged in a row and made to kueel down close together. There was nothing on the whole pinza bub three', empty scaven? ger carts, which stood in line at the rear of the prisoners.'~Whon tho com? pany was in lille and ready to fire, Co). Guizot stepped forward and told the pri? soners in a few words th it they were to Buffer death for having been caught in . the act of settiug fire to buildings and ? dwellings in Paris. At this moment the women utterred pieroing screams and be? gan to sway themselves back and forth. An officer stopped forward and made them keep still with the flat of his sword. I A few moments afterwards a volley was ! fired, and when the smoke cleared*away ' a most horrible sight was presented. Three of the womon who wera., in the middle row, between tho men, we'ro still living and writhing in awful ogony. A seoond volley was fired, aud a third, and not until the sixth did all tho prisoners cease to liv?. The dead bodies were then flung into the three Bcavooger carts and carried away to be buried. BOBBERY.-On Friday night last, two men, believed to be negroes, forced their ( way into the house, nour this town, oc? cupied by Mr. Hugh Omelvaney and his siater. They aro both aged people, and Mr. Omelvaney bad been in bed sick for several weeks, und was, therefore, una? ble to make nuy resistance. They stole about $150 in money, and watohes, rings and other things to the value of about $50. $100 of the money belonged to Mrs. Nuucy McCunts, who had deposited it with Miss Polly Omelvaney for safe keeping. Miss Om?lvaney could not identify thc meu, but believed them to bo colored. - Chester Reporter. VICTOR Huao AND THE FOURTH OF JULY.-The New York correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger, writing on Sun? day last, Bays: "TheInternational Work iugmen's Society have resolved to call a mass meeting in this city to espre?? their sympathy with the Parisian Communiais, whose real character, they say, is not correctly understood here, owing to the persistent misrepresentation of the Ver? sailles Monarchists. Tho preliminaries were arranged last night at a conference in Stanton street. Tho Uh of July will probably be tho day, and among the speakers, it is said, will possibly be no less a personage than Victor Hugo." In a difficulty about a fence, in Perry, Bolla County, 111., on Wednesday last, throo brothers named Underwood at? tacked Richard A. Mouifcr with re? volvers. The lutter returned the fire, mortally wounding one of his assailants, when one of tho other two fired fourteen balls into Menifer, killing him. A despatch from Sun Francisco nays: A boy named O'Brien had been arrested and identified by several Chinamen as having given the fatal blow to tho Chi? naman, who was clubbed and stoned to death on Fourth street last week, but it is doubtful if sufficient white testimony can be obtained to convict him. A parson, reading tho funeral services at tho grave, forgot tho sex of tho de? ceased, and asked one of the mourners, an Emeraki er, > Ts this a brother or a sis? ter?" "Nather," replied Pat; "only a cousin." A Western Indy, who had been desert? ed by two consecutive husbands, has contracted a third matrimonial alliance, which she hopes may be permunout, with a gentleman whose legs have been ampu? tated. The Wilmington St>ir says: There wore three fiue watermelons in market j yesterday morai ug, being tho first of the season. They were raised in this Coun? ty, and realized a handsome sum-$5 each.
