DEATH FROM EXPOSURE.-Daring tho I
storm of wind and driving rain which
prevailed on Wednesday night, two
colored men attempted to go from Sulli?
van's Island to Mount Pleasant in a
small boat. The intense cold soon
caused them to desist, and they wore
barely able to make Sullivan's Island
after turning baok. From the beach
one of them strnggled . np to a house,
where; as soon as he was ablo, ho in?
formed the inmates of the fate of his
oompanion. A search was at once
instituted, bat the unfortunate man,
when found, was lying dead in an
adjacent lot.-Charleston News.
DEATH FUOM STARVATION.-An inquest
was held on the premises of Mrs.
Gowan, in this town, one day last week,
upon the body of a colored infant, about
six weeks old, and a verdiot rendered, of
death from neglect and starvation. The
woman and her children have been living
upon the charity of Mrs. G. About
seven weeks ago tho woman gave birth
to a child, and throughout the severe
weather of tho past month the mother
and her children have suffered greatly
from oold and want of food. Appeals
wero frequently made to many colored
peoplo in their behalf, but none of them
seemed to feel any sympathy for tho poor
creatures.- Union Times.

ba paid in cash, uo)A the balance to bi
paid io throo equal'semi-annual iustal

The.road was bid oil by myself, on ac

The question was then asked, if by oas

under your Excellency's direction, aote
as my legal adviser-claiming that th
property belonged to the State, and thi

Notwithstanding my protest, h o we ve
the referee proceeded with the sale, n
fusing to accept my bid on behalf of tb
State, and the bid Anally reached 8275

half an hoar, the auctioneer being ju
upon the point of striking the proper)
off at that Agare, wheu, at this junctor
some gentlemen, bankers at Union Con
House, oame to me und offered to a?
vance 825,0J0 upon my warrant, provii
ing that I would pay them for suoh ai
vance. I had no time to consider, i
the property was then called for the la
time; bat, acting npon the legal advil
of Col. J. D. Pope, stated to the refer
that I would raise the required amonrj
and he aooepted, my bid. Meanwhile,
consulting with the gentlemen who hi
offered to make the>< -neoe&sary ad van
for' mo to prevent the saorifioe of t!
interests of the Statei I found that thc
terms did not present a very flatterii
prospect for the interests whioh I repi
flouted-they requiring a bonus
$10,000 for tho use of the requir
825,000 for twenty-four boura.
These vory modest nod moderate teri
I of course rejected, and upon the ro
being struck off to tho State for thu i
oond time, ut $140,000, I wu3 obliged
say that tho gentlemen who had offer
to advance the uecessary funds, hud I
fused to do so.
Tho property was now put up for t

Upon tho adjustment of the sett

satisfied that it is in the power of I

A RSHARK Alika Brx.ii.-One of the
most remarkable bills ever submitted to
Congress was presented last Monday by
Mr. Peroe, of Mississippi, and laid on
the desks of members to-day. It has
excited a vest amount of ridioule, and
provides that the Qovernment shall ap?
propriate $200,000,000 for the settle?
ment of the publio lands and the educa?
tion of the people; in fact giving them
everything needed to keep house sud go
to farming, except the proverbial mule,
whioh ought to be inoluded with the
forty acres. Out of the proposed fond
any landless citizen who desires to settle
on the publio lands is to be furnished
transportation thereto and the following
articles: Fifty dollars' worth of building
material, one plow, ono pick-axe, one
hoe, one shovel, one ' axe, one hatchet,
100 pouuds of assorted out nails, 400
pounds of floor, fifty poonds of bacon,
ten pouuds of cofTee.'?f ve pounds of tea,
100 pounds 'of corn meal, same of salt,
fifteen bushels of. seed whoat aud Ave of
cord, four of Beel potatoes, and one dol?
lar's worth of assorted garden seeds.
The faull for thre""dfppropriation, which
is intended, of course, for tho colored
pooplo of tjio 3o\Uh, is to bo dorived
from au equitable .assessment of till the
property of. the people- in the United
States; but after a period of five years
the land-owners uro to commence to pay
back ten per qeoC, S year on tho amount
thus loaned. They are prohibited from
using intoxicating liquors while acaept
iug these lands.
SMuaanma is Hiau QUARTERS.-We
learn from good authority, says the Key
West DispaicJi,'of the 30th ult., that the
steamer Liberty, which arrived at this
port on Tuesday afternoon last, had on j
board some six paokugea of segars whioh
did not appear'Upon her manifest, but
which, it is said, were shipped under
consular certificate and seal at Havana, j
Ono of these packages waa addressed to 1
his Excellency U. S. Grant, another to
Mr. Robeson, Secretary of tho Navy, j
another to Mr. Fish, Secretary of State,
and the others to different members'of ?
General Grant's Cabinet-in all about
6,-000 segars. Had these segars been ad?
dressed to-any other six citizens of the
United States, the Custom House of?
ficers at this place would have pounced
opon them, and probably mulcted the
oaptuin of the steamer to a heavy fine,
or have sought the confiscation of thc
vessel. We regret to say that the exalt?
ed offioiul positions of the recipients of
these segars BO overshadowed tho laws
of the land that they were Buffered to go
ou their way to Baltimore. Wo trust
that tho onstoms officers at this port will
exhibit a little more backbone in the
mutter, and oompel Mr. U. S. Grant and
his confreres to duly enter tho seguro
and pay the statutory duties thereon.
We are ut a loss to discover any more
privilege in General Graut to smoke
smuggled segars than there is in Gen.
Tom Thumb.

INDECENT SEARCHING.-Tho Laurens

made in that town, during tho night, by
a United States Marshal and u squad of
soldiers, ut thu house of B. S. Carling?
ton, which, for indecency and brutality,
is worse, if possible, than anything we

sacked the house from cellar to roof to
find Mr. G., but they actually searched
the bed in whioh Mrs. G. wns lying very
sick, with an infant only a few days old,
by her side. Mrs. G. and tho widowed
mother of Mr. G. were tho only persons
in the house nt the time. Thu bird had
