COLUMBIA. S. C. Wednesday Morning, Sept. ll, 1872, For President of the United States. UO lt .VC IS QREELET, of New York. For vice-President O. GRATZ DROWN, of Missouri. Give (ho People Light. We have entertained the belief that Judge Orr and the members of the Re? publican party who actod with him iu leaving the "regular rogues," and in bringing out an opposition ticket, did so because they were seriously dis uffucted, and houostly displeased with tho nomination of F. J. Moses, Jr., for Governor, and the other objectionable nominations. Theso boltors are pre? sumed to know a greab deal moro of the character and conduct of their leaders than wo outsiders do, and when they abandoned tho Convention and regular organization of their party, we knew aud they must have kuown still better that there existed abundant can3e. This belief rested partly, of course, npon what is matter of general noto? riety, in regard to the regular nominees, and upon the extraordinary revelations and well-sustained charges made in the Convention itself, and in its disgraceful proceedings, as well as upon the sup? posed wider, deeper and moro inti? mate knowledge the bolters possessed of the fellows they left behind them in tho deserted camp. We thiuk some degree si confidence may also bo credited to the motives of Judge Orr aud his im? mediate associates, based upon the hotter character they sustuin before the oommunity. No charges of corruption, that we know of, have ever been ad? vanced against Judges Orr and Greene, and none against their candidato for Governor, Mr. Reuben Tomlin eon, until after his nomination was made. The Nation, a journal of high standing, has vouched for his integrity, ability and honesty-basing its opinion upon long acquaintance. That journal has said that "could he be eleoted, South Carolina would have, for the first time atuso the wai? a creditable Governor, sagacious aud honorable." In view of the standing which is thus claimed for them, and the forbearing aud ever generous construction which it iu the general desire among respectable persons to place upon their conduot and motives, we think they owe it to the country to justify it, if they can, and to place beyond question tho good charac? ter and honest lives of their candidates. They claim to be par excellence the party of integrity, to desire the correction and leform of abuses, the inauguration of a now era of honest State administration, of economical expenditure aud strict ac? countability. This position challenges investigation, and, as was to be expected, has already brought forth a crop of im? putations, insinuations and charges, principally, so far, ugainst tho candidate for Goveruor. It will not do for the bolters to be silent under thone charges, nor to content themselves with general denials of them, or to merely make pro? testations of innooenoo. This would be to adopt the weak tactics of their adver? saries, as exemplified io repeated in? stances by Chamberlain, who pretends to thiuk his character u tower of strength, and a sufficient refutation of the nume? rous swindles laid ut his door. The most glariug and presumptuous instance of this sorry und flimsy resort to mere denial, was made by Moses, Jr., a few days since. He denied in toto, and in detail, all charges brought against him, whether they concern pay certificates, armed foroe, purchase of arms, or any? thing else, and endeavors to throw the onus probandi upon those who make them. Thoao who set up for reform, and who claim to have 'character, oannot af? ford to adopt this weak devioe of thc regular rogues. It is too thin to oovei the nakedness of their villainy; aud, at an example, it would bo dangerous and impolitic for honest men to follow. Wo heard the denial made by District Attorney Corbin, in tho Bolters' Con? vention, of tho complicity of Mr. Tom linson, charged by Judge Mackey, in dishonest dealings in tho matter of the phosphate bill and the Greenville Rail? road stock. Notwithstanding this, it has again boon brought forward by Sec? retary Oardozo and Judge Melton, with gomo minuteness of details, and with offers on tho part of tho latter to pro duco his authority, if desired. Tho ad missions of tho former of the honesty aud uprightness of Mr. Tomliuson, ii: thc same speech in which he states that he admitted to him that ho helped tc buy np the Senate to pass tho phosphate bill, show him oithor falso in his state? ments, as ia emphatically ?aid by Tom linson, or that his idea of honesty anil uprightness is something quite origina ?nd uniquo. We oopied, yesterday, from the Charleston News, a well-writter. letter of Mr. Tomlinson, in which these imputations upon bis conduct and integ? rity are indignantly repelled. Having disposed of Cardozo, he Bays that he will "be only too glad to have bis (Judge Melton's) authority for the assertion he has seen tit to mako," viz: "that he (Tomlinson) had borrowed the money, or endorsed a note at tho bank to get the money, which was used for tho pur ; pose of getting tho phosphate bill through." We think Jndgo Melton can? not consistently withhold his authority, and we think, furthermore, that there should be something moro produced in its verification than a mei-o name. Wo call for testimony that will pass muster. Judge Moiton, doubtless, knows the importance of innocence as against the machinations of fulsehood, in such a world as wo live in. If, as Swift said, a Ho can run round the world beforo truth can pot on his boots to pursue it, every honorable mau should bo scrupulous about sotting a lie afloat, and is bound to mako it appear that whut ho has uttered had all tho marks and character? istics of truth when used by him, whe? ther true or false in fact. Before leaving tho subject, we desire again to present to Mr. Tomlinson and his friends the importance of exact, full and explicit exposition of mntters which, originally private, have now become of publio interest. We say this with a sin? cere desire that the truth maybe so fully elicited that good may come of it, both to themselves and to the public interests. We think that ho has disposed of Car? dozo effectually, and has done tho proper thing in demanding of Judge Melton authority for statements which involve his honor. In calling upon Judge Mel? ton for satisfactory proof of his charges on tho one hand, wo think it well, on the other, to suggest to Mr. Tomlinson that he furnish to the public, if not incon? sistent with his honorable obligations to others, or hurtful to their legitimate in? terests, a more detailed account of hie agency in tho passage of the phosphate bill, of the mode in which he became possessed of phosphate stock, its amount, ko., ?fcc, accompanied by substantiation of suoh reputable men associated with hi m as the public kuow and confide in. Wc regret to have to ask so much ns this, but Mr. TomlinBon's maturo reflections, we think, will lead him to see the neces? sity and advantago of it to himself. Il is an opportunity for setting at rest t matter whioh, unless elaborately and satisfactorily cleared up, will continue tc trouble him, and whioh, although possi bly disagreeable, ho should promptly embrace. <-??-> Nomination of Hon. B. F. Perry. The Convention of the Fourth Con gressional District settled upon the Hon B. F. Perry as tho Conservative candi date for Congress. There is, perhaps no mau more generally known through out the State than ex-Gov. Perry, no one moro universally esteemed and re speotcd for sterling qualities of head ant heart. His nomination cannot fail ti give satisfaction to all good and i n tell i gent citizens of tho District, and hi election will be a source of rejoicing ti 1 the entire State. It will be well fo Sonth Carolina to have one true nm trusty servant in Congress, and no bet ter mau could be selected than B. P Perry. A man of tho purest character of distinguished ability, aud of chival rous devotion to South Curolina, ho wil be as a pillar of strength to us at Wash ingtou. The only cause of regret at his nomi nation rusts iu the fuct that we will los h's services us .State Senator from Green ville, for which position he has been nc minuted. We trust that tho people c Greenville will give us their next bee mau, ut any rate. As to availability, w also think that no better choice coul possibly have beou made. Gov. Perr, hus ul ways boen liberal iu his politic. views, and nevor much of a party man AH opposed to A. S. Wallace, tho Badi cal nominee, he cannot fail to got th vote of every decent citizen in th Fourth District, who has sense suffioier to appreciate his duty to tho State. -?-*.??-?-? Mr. Tilden said, at tho Democrati Convention nt Syracuse, on tho dth it stant: "The antagonisms which civil wa has created between the kindred popuh tions of our country must bo closed u now and forever." That is tho trutl stated as plainly and barely as ono need wish it. It is tho koy-noto of tho can paign, first started by Mr. Greeley's at mirublo lotter of acceptance. It i "moat" equally for our Presidential an gubernatorial elections. Washingtor Jefferson, Hamilton and Monroe, an their generation, would havo said ame to tho appeal at onco. Oar own genen tiou is moro stiff-necked; hut truth wi como homo to them when thoy get 1 understand it thoroughly. And thoy wi be ready to do that before November. -?? A German musician has had his wi set to music. Tito litt urn? from Maine. Oar readers tunst not be misled by the returns from Maine, as given in the telegraphic columns. Tho comparisons are all made with the vote of 1870, which wus a very small one. The only true tests to show tho Liberal Republi? can and Democratic gain, is to oomparo the vote with that of the lust Presi? dential year, 16G8. All tho reports indi cato an exceedingly full vote, such as was the uituo in Vermont. This ic always the caso iu tho State elections of Presidential years. It uppeurs that there was even a fuller vote in Muinu on Mon? day last than even at Grant's election in 18C8. Grant carried the State theu by a mijority of 28,030. Chamberlain, the Republican candidate for Governor, at tho electiou of 1808, corresponding to this one, was elected by 24,000 majority, Tho difference between these ligares nod tho majority now for Perhum, will show the Radical gains or losses. A STUMP SPEAKER IN PETTICOATS -We have been vory hopeful of Greeley's election, notwithstanding the letter of Gen. Wise, the Convention of Mr. Dun? can, and the attitude of Mr. O'Conor, but we uro now really alarmed. Miss Fletcher-it is true you never beard of her, but atill she thinks herself a power in the laud-hus "taken the stump" in Ohio for Grant, and several othur par? ticularly strong minded womou have fol? lowed her example. It is suifl that these awful dames and damsels play the very deuce with Mr. Greeley, and there is no telling what tho result may be. This is a dreadful Btate of affairs, and it is lamentable to think that tho philosopher has brought it on himself by his candor in saying that he thinks women ought not to vote, and unsex themselves by mingling in the brawls and excitements of political lifo. A great many profound thinkers agree with him it is true; but, then, Miss Fletcher is ou tho war-path, and determined to have his scalp! Under these circumstances we begin to feel a little alarm, for there is no telling how muuy votes she muy carry for Grunt if she happens to bo particularly good looking. GREENVILLE, S. C., Sept. 10, ls72. EDITOR PHCENIX: The municipal elec? tion, yesterday, resulted in tho choice of Col. H. P. Hammott, for Mayor, and J. M. Sullivan, Wm. Beattie, T. W. Davis, Fielder Gossett, J. C. Alexander und J. Li. Hawkins, for Aldormen. The elec? tion passed off with the utmost quiet; local issues alono decided the result. Aside from purty politics, they ara all good men, und will servo the people faithfully. M. LUCKY CONFEDERATES- A PLEASANT TIME IN EOYPT-PALACES AND ORIENTAL LUXURY.-News lately received from the ex Confederate officers now in the mili? tary service of the Egyptian Viceroy, shows that they are in tho enjoyment of all the comforts and luxuries of life in? cidental to tho Oriental countries. An exchange gives some interesting extracts from a lotter dated Alexandria, Egypt, July 22, received at Lewieburg, from General Reynolds, who, with other ex Confoderate officers, for soveral years, has been in tho military service of tho Khedive of Egypt. There is quito a contrast between tho quarters these of? ficers had during their service in tho Confederacy and that which they now havo in thut of the Viceroy of Egypt, as will bo seen by tho followiug extract: "Since I last wrote you, wo havo moved our quarters from old Mussafar Kbuuua to this magnificent induce of K'boara, just on tho outskirts of the city. Il was built by Said Pacha, the former Viceroy, as u country palace. Sinco his death, no one has occupied it, except occasionally princes, dukei, dis? tinguished strangers, See. His Highness has removed General Loring aud my family to it. It is fully and elegautly furnished. It is in tho centre of a largo park, with broad avenues, shaded by trees. Tho gardons contain about ton acres of ail the fruits of the tropics, und filled with tho rarest flowers, with large fountains throwing their spray iu every direction; beautiful statuary and vases lino tho walks. It looks Jika a fairy scene. The rooms of tho palaco aro of immense size, aud, if I may mako use of an Irish bull, papered with tapestry silk of tho most beautiful kind; the ceilings aro all beautifully froscoed, aud the floors of flue marble.

You eau have no idea of tho spleudor of those things hero; they must bo seen to have any conception of them." A servant girl in Minneapolis was re? cently badly burned by kerosene, and her omployer charged her for tho oil sho spilled and tho flour, .tc, used tocase her sufferings. Ho thou turned her adrift, and she died. A disastrous Aro occurred in Wilming? ton, N. C., on Sunday night, whioh de? stroyed four buildings with their con? tents. A Ifrutal Murder. About 8 o'clock, lust eveuing, Henry L. Perrin, Clerk of tho Board of County Commissioners, was shot und instantly killed by TriulJustico, L. I. Woolf, on (Meeting street, opposite City Park. The two men, in company with Deputy United States Marshals, Hendrix aud Reid, had beeu conversing in front of Wulberu's restaurant, a short distance above the bceuo of the murder. Woolf, who was iu liquor, took oflouco at somo trivial remark of Perrin's, und cursed him as u d-d blackguard. Perrin Bttid, "Woolf, do not call mu a blackguard." Woolf, how? ever, repeated tho assertion, whereupon Perrin struck him in the face with his bund. Woolf made au attempt to ro? turo the blow, but was seized by Hen? dricks before ho could do so. Thu lutter led him iuto tho restaurant, uud endeavored to persuade him that the blow bad beeu struck iu jest. lu the meanwhile Perrin aud Reid walked down Meeting .street iu the direction of Broad street. After somu persuasion on Hendricks' part, Woolf consented to make no further attempt to renew the altercation, and ou .s it y i U?? iii at the matter would bo dropped there, the former released his bold. Woolf then went to the bar iu a rear room uud called for u drink, Hendricks retnuiuirq in the vestibule. While drinking the liquor, Woolf told the proprietor, Mr. Wulberu, that he iuteuded to shoct Perrin, and us soon us ho left the bur Mr. Wulberu iuformed Hendricks, who was still in tho vestibule, to that effect. Woolf by this time had stepped iuto the street, whither Hendricks followed as soon as he learned of Woolf's avowal of a murderous intention. The lutter overtook Perrin and Reid iu front of Mujor Corbin's resideuce, and drew a revolver. Perrin tt:-'ied partly round und cried, "Dou'tsboot; I um uuarmed." Wool fired twice, however, in quick succession, und, it is alleged, was ubout to tire a third time, when the pistol was wrenched from his grasp by Hendricks. Perrin fell to tho pavement and in? stantly expired. Several detectives und a policeman having been attracted \)y the reports of tho pistol, now uppeared upon the sceue, arrested the murderer and carried him to the gourd bouse, where he is now confined. In the nicuu tune a dense crowd bud assembled upon the scene, und pressed arouud ibo budy with all the eugerness of excited curiosity. Lieutenant Chapman, of the police loree, being present, ordered a city ambulance and bud the body con? veyed to tho residence of County Com? missioner F. C. Miller, on Meeting stieet, opposite Water. Here u jury of iuipeat was empaneled by Coroner Tuft, which immediately ufterwurds adjourned, to meet at IU o'clock this morning, in the coroner's olUcc. Tho murdered man, Porrin, is said to have been of a remarkably inoffensive j nature, unobtrusive aud jovial iu dispo? sition, and was much liked by all who I kuew him. He was thirty-eight years old, and a native of New York, but has ?been a resident of this city since I860. His father was celebrated for his love of the turf and liue horses, having ouce .been tho owner of tho renowned Flora Temple. He was also for a number of year3 Presideut of the Butchers' and Drovers' Bunk, of New York city. An elder brother of the deceased is now pre? sident of that institution. Perrin was for a long time a member of Hook and Ladder Compauy No. 1, of this city, in which organization his congenial man? ners won him mauy frieud.s. He is rep? resented AS having been perfectly sober at tho timo of the shooting. He was struck by ono ball, which entered the right breast near tho dividing line, a lit? tle bolow the collar bono, with an incli? nation to tho loft, und probably passed through the heart. - Charleston ?cics. A SCRAP OF H AUFM HISTORY.-There is always a certaiu curiosity which socdt3 tho incidents of tho inner lifo of thc ha? rems with an avidity which is often fully warranted by tho disclosures. Thc Lo? vant Timas, under dato of August 12, gives tho history of the death of a bounti? ful Circassian slave, supposed to bo poi? soned. She had been purchased some time ugo, for tho sum of JLTUI), by a wealthy Mussulman of high rank, a man will advanced in life, who has ono legal wife and a number of concubines, but no children. Sbo became the favorito of hor mastor, who was much distressed some day? ago, at her falling seriously ill, her malady being characterized by thorough prostration of the system. He had her removed to the house of ono of his dependents near his yali on tho Bos phoroiis, giving instructions that medi? cal aid should be procured, and no pains or expense spared to rcstoro the sulTeror to health. Tho wuy in which tho per? son to whom the precious chargo was iu trusted fulfilled theso instructions, was to sond for a medical man und drive a bargain with him at tho rate of twenty piastres 11 visit, medicines to be included. lt is stated, and is very probably true, that tho practitioner did not pay a second visit. A "wiso woman" was then called in, and wrote some talismanic words on a scrap of paper. The patient was visitod daily by a nnmbor of her fel? low-slaves from tho harem, who dis? played much compassion for her aud a respect indicative of the high place she occupied iu her master's affections. For six days sbo neither ate nor drank any? thing, and she remained in a comatose stato, apparently paralyzed, until last night, when she expired-the viotim, probably, of jealous or of some harem intrigue Injudicious advertiser--Tho man who announces his largo stock of guns and pistols in Qaakertown.

"Case's Political Chart for 1872," pub? lished by O. D. Case & Co., of Ilurtford, Conn., contains a variety and extent of information uot found in any other work extuut.

Thoro will be no morning performance, as advertised owing to the extensive preparations absolutely necessary to get things in order. Tho usual performance in the afternoon will be equal to that at night. THE STOMACH AS AJ? AVENGER.-For every breach of the laws of health that we commit, the stomach inflicts a penal? ty. Headache, biliousness, nervous tremors, constipation, colic, heartburn, nausea, debility and mental depression are only a few of the punishments which un outraged stomach is capable of im? posing upon us. To bring back this vengeful organ to its normal condition to placate, invigorate and regulate it there is nothing in tho wide world so potent us a course of Hostetter's Sto? mach Bitters.

TOMLINSON'S CHARACTER.-The Nation, a paper of the highest character, thus speaks of Mr. Tomlinson. The opinion of tho editor is based upon a long personal acquaintance: "There is, indeed, no State iu whioh Mr. Tomlinson would not be a useful citizen, 60 far as integrity, ability and honesty go to make a citizen useful, aud in him, could he be elected, South Carolina wonld have, for the first time Biuco tho war, a creditable Governor, sagacious and honorable. We do not know that ho has any chance of election. But it is curtain that ho ought to get the vote of all South Carolinians who have spoken a word of detestation against the true carpet-bagger, while at tho same time expressing a willingness to welcome honost Northerners into the State." CONFEDERATE DEAD FROM GETTYSR?RG FIELD.-Tho bodies of between 700 and 8?0 Confederate soldiers, disinterred from the Gettysburg battle-field and recently conveyed to Richmond, Va., by the Ladies' Memorial Association, have been properly reinterred on Gettysburg Hill, in Hollywood Cemetery, without any publio parado or announcement. In all there have boon about 1,500 bodies re interred, mostly of men who belonged to Tickott's Virginia Division, the other Southern States having removed nearly ail of their dead a good while ago. Tho pooplo of Lodore, Kansas, have hud considerable stock killed by tho Mis? souri and Texas Railroad, for which the company refused to pay, and they now get even by soaping the track at night, and watching the graceful revolutions of tho driving wheels in an attempt at an up grade marou next day.
