b?? men, who btid/.'fconit?ilt^d /grfrivous
wrongs, real or supposed,' In proof of
this, good and honest Republicans are
unharmed and' reepeoted avery where in
the State. Ip relation' to. native white
Carolinians who had gone over to tho
Radioal party, he did not admit that they
were perseouted, but that trioy bad in
enrreef pablio obloquy he admitted, and
thdiight ^hey disserved jt-not that they
became honest Republicans, but because
it was believed'they went over from cor?
rupt motives, as evidenced by the fuel
that they immediately waxed fat sod be
gas, from official statics, tc kick theil
former brothers.. The thinking people
of tho State had jio irrational prejudice
against good, honest Northern men, but,
on tho contrary, would be glad to receive
such in large numbers, with as much
capital as they could bring. They wooli
bo welcomed, us would be the immi
grants from other parts of the earth.
As to Beeret associations and organizer;
belies of men, who commit violence ant
break ibo : laws, he had no personal
knowledge of them. Ile did not knott
that he over saw au individual belonging
to such associations. , His .iDformatiot
in relation to them was' derived frorr
current report and newspaper accounts.
Nevertheless, he believed they existed.
He thought such organizations weh
local and limited-, that they did not per
vade tho State; he felt'sure they did nol
exist iu bin owu County ut all. He boc
watched their progress aa a new phase ii
the affairs of this State. He did no
think stich organizations sprang ont o
difference of party creodu, but rathei
from social disorders. He believed tba
they.bad their origin in tho anomalous
condition, social and political, of tin
State. Ho did not'?iinotion such sssoci
ations. ' He asked tho oom m it tee to re
member that suoh associations natnralb
arise under all dospotio governments
and tho more . despotio the govemmen
may bd the greater will be the namba
and violence of such bodies. He refer

this country, asking them to remembe
that the people of South Carolina live?
ander an absolute and atrocious despot
ism, composed of villainous men fron
the North and ignorant and vicions mei
St home. Ho believed that the Stat
government was notoriously, monstrous
ly corrupt, as acknowledged by its owi
adherents-jo shamelessly corrupt tba
many of ?ne most prominent amoni
them have, in their own minds, elovatei
rascality and roguery and every specie
of publio and private vice to the digoit;
of virtaes. The only remedies fur ai
these are a return to a good, honest an?
truly representative government, ii
which property shall not be taxed with
oat representation; that the publi
money shall be used only for publio put
poses; and, in the mean time, an beroi
forbearance on the part of tho whit
population of the State, with an effort t
preserve order .and change legi ti ma toi,

TALE OF UNEXPECTED BRAVEUT.-Thc
following is one of the moat thrilling
adveutu res that it?has been our lot to
chronicle. Three beautiful and brave
young ladies, while enjoying a walk
among the doep shadows and oool re?
treats of the beautiful park adjoiuing
their home, near Brook's Station,
Bullitt County, Ky., encountered a largo*
snake, measuring forty-eight inches iu
length and Ove inches in circumference.
Instead of, running away, these heroic
! fuir ones attacked tho scaly munster and
succeeded in bruising thc serpent'? head,
i When the crown of bia mujesty'a bead
was laid low, the fairest of the fair, not
satistled with taking the would-be de?
stroyer's life, proceeded to dissect him.
I -Horor of horrors! they discovered
that thia gay deceiver bad just swallow?
ed four, newly-fledged birds. On being
released tho happy little creatures flus?
tered away, seemingly unconscious of
the danger they had joist passed. The
snake weighed eight pounds, and was
of the rare species known by the familiar
uame of *'gutter'' snake." The young
ladies aro proud of their bravery and
profoundly grateful for their . escape
from an untimely death.

whirled her around with great velocity,
her houd at each revolution striking a
bar near by, until it was entirely beuteu
from the body.
A Kansas 'journal 'mnst be held re?

her'brcaat und thus saved its lifo. It
had lost its pareut, and but for the kind
iutorest taken in it, it would have starved
It ia said that the colt would, whenever
the lady was sceu, run whinnying to her,
and, laying its head on her breast, would
partake of food with great relish."
A Cleveland paper rejects a communi?
