"It is not. tobe doubted that in the days of its old ascendancy, and of its Bucoessful contests with the Federal and Whig parties, the strength of tho Demo? cratic party lay in tbe energy and vita? lity of its popular impulses and sympa? thies.

Tho la named lot it be known to some of the friends that they intended to Ku Kit Dick, and in a few rights after a band disguised men appeared at Dick's hous took him out and infliotod upon him severe whipping, drawing the ruby pr?t freely. Dick had a friend or two wi bim at tho time, and they were sattB?h that they knew some of the disgnisi men. So fully convinced was Dio that, meeting l'eto Lam bright a few da after, he told him that he either hud "fight ont" or "pay out" of the scrap Pete thought discretion the better po of valor, and agreed to pay Dick ten d< lars, and turn State's evidenoe. Tl was satisfactory. Keeping this to hil self, Diok met with Hugh Montgomei and effected the same arrangement, ai received bis ten dollars. But Ji Rhodes proved a stubborn case, ai Dick sought jostine before Trial Justi Montgomery, of Spartanburg. Jimn was tried a few days since, dnly cc victed upon testimony of his own cob and fined ten dollars, with cost.

THAT IS NOT TRUE.-The Columbia Union, pi Tuesday, contains the follow? ing, which ia untruo as far as tho Ku Klux order is ooncorned: "Resigned,- H. R. Whito, of Union, his ?frico'ns County Commissioner, in pursuance of special order No. 3, K. K. K. Resignation accepted." Tho editor of tho Union delights in re? cording Ku Klux and other outrages oc? curring in the upper Counties of this State, and nevor lets an opportunity pass of raking np old grievances aud parading them before hts readers, in some new and more offensive coloring. Wo are aware that two mouths ago our County Commissioners were notified to vacate their positions, and Mr. White tendered his resignation to Governor Scott, in tba shape the Union gives above, but tho Governor refused to ac? cept it. Since then one of tho Commis? sioners, John Tiuslcy, has resigned, and another, Simpson G lies-neither' of whom could rend or write-has aban? doned his office and taken up his resi? dence somewhere about fifteen miles bo low Columbia, in Richland County. Thus Union was left without a Board of Com? missioners, and the poor house, jail and other County creditors were left without being able to draw money from the Treasurer, while tho roads and other County matters were being neglected, much to tho injury of tho whole people. Mr. White, seeing this condition of our County affairs, and supposing that if he resigned Governor Scott wonld or? der an cleotion, voluntarily tendered his resignation, and requested tho Governor to do something to relievo the County. There was no order from the K. K. or any one else, to intimidate bim to resign, i It was a voluntary act of his own. [Union Times. A WHOIIE FAMILY KILLED RY RUNAWAY j HORSES.-A Missouri paper gives an acoount of a sad accident which occurred near Johnstown, in that Stato, on Sun? day morning last, by which four persons were killed-a father, mother, son and an infant child. From tho meagre re? port, we glean tho following: Mr. Bot? tles and family were returning from church in a two-horso wagon. In cross lug Deepwater, the horses became frightened und ran i?w?y: dragging tho son, who was driving, a distance of near? ly a quarter of a mile. lu going this distance from the creek, it appears that the mother jumped ont, after throwing out her infant child. In tho afternoon, a traveler from Germantown discovered tho lifeless body of tho son near the road. Soon after, ho found tho woman with her neck broken, nnd the child lying near her ftlivo, but almost dead from tho effect j oh tho heat. Further on, ho found the j wagon upon the dead body of tho father. The child has since died. Mrs. Woodhull is reportod to have, said, speaking of woman's suffrage: "Next year I shall bo cleated President of the United States, and they will see tho strength of this movement.
