COLUMBIA, 8. C, Toes lay Morning, October 27, 1874. Hubbab. About 150 persons, mostly colored, bold a disorderly meeting on Saturday atoning, in front of the Central Bank. Mr. R. H. Gain was introdnoed by Hampton Mims, bat tbe rabble kept ap each a clamor es prevented his speaking. Afterwards some local poli? ticians of the Nash and Minort school made the attempt and also failed. There was a settled purpose to hear no one, the Nash men crying down the Minort spokesmen, and the Minort sicn returning tbe compliment to the XT ash advocates. There was a con? siderable amount of bad blood and bad whiskey, and a flow of low abnse ia the crowd. This was the "fierae de mo oratio," whose minds appear closed and hermetionlly sealed in their ignorance and prejudice. Some of the >sity Aldermen, it is said, encouraged the disorder, and we observed u white .man from a neighboring County en? gaged in tho same way. Cain might j have instructed these people, bub they .seemed joined to thoir little idols and devoted to their turbulence and noise. How much better would it have been .to have listened to Cain attentively, ?and then put up ono of the best men, white or blaok, oa tho other side, to have answered him. These voters ?vrould certainly have been in better condition to appreciate the questions in issue, better prepared to exercise the duty of voting intelligently and honestly next Tuesday, if they could have had this advantage. As it was, they bawlod out against hearing any one. Their mouths were open to de ;ioance, while their minds were closed to truth. Now all, without exception, of all colors and political creeds, pro? pose to desire good government, und except **hono8t" J. J. Patterson, pro iesB to believe that our State Govern? ment is rotten nnd corrupt from turret rio "foundation stono. The real ques? tion .to diseuss before the common people, is, which sot of men now claiming their suffrages oan best be trusted with tho duty of reform, which fan bring the grsater power and will to its introduction into public affairs. The Canvaii. The country is alive now with po? litical meetings. The public mind be? gins to exhibit an aroused and healthy interest ia the issues involved in this campaign, General Kershaw has made a success!nl canvass so far in the fourth district, and Gen. MoGowan has been cordially reoeived, and bus made a fine impression where he has appeared in Abe third. We regard the eleotion of these gentlemen as a matter of vital consequence to tho State, aud as al moit removed beyond the region of doubt. In addition to meetings already mentioned, Gen. Kershaw and Mr. Thomas Davis held one at Winns boro, on Friday, which was well at? tended, ad 1 was extremely satisfactory. The Conrt House was completely filled, nearly one-half of the andience being oolored. They listened with great respeot to the speakers, and re? ceived the oonoiliatory and far-reach? ing -views of Kershaw with warm ap? proval. Our County of Riohland will bo visited in a few days by Gen. Mo Gowan, and tbe voters will havo the opportunity of looking upon a noble{ upoeimon of man, who is no time-! server, no party hack, do corruption iet, and for whom, in justice to them? selves, and in order to have honorable representation in Congress, they ooght to support cordially, as we are sure very many of them will. Mr. Chamberlain spoke at Yorkville on Friday, and received close attention from the meeting of about one hun? dred and fifty persons. .Large meetings were held, Thursday and Friday, at Greenwood and Ninety Six, in Abbovilio County. Cain deli? vered speeohos in the iutoresb of tho Independent Republican movement &nd commanded grout attention and enthusiasm. John R. Tolbert heads a bolt in that County, and was nomi? nated for the Sonate against Hullins bead. Senator Dunn and Sam. Lue spoke to large and attentive audiences, last Friday and Saturday, in Couwayboro and Marion. The reoent ohauge in tbo Commis? sioners of Election has been received *ith geueral favor, based, as it is be? lieved to bo, npon a just aud proper principle, aud oulcnlated to insure a peaceful, fair and honest election. -?????> ?

At a grand jollification meeting at Indianapolis, Governor Hendricke made a happy address; in which bo spoke of the causes of this great suo* oess. "As to the reasons of our vio tory," be said, "some givo one reason, some another. I think the reason ie, that the people of Indiana and the whole country think thero ought to be a change in party and politics. They think that corruption is running through the Federal Government, and that the Republican party should bo tamed out and one put in to conduct it on principles of honesty and justice. When the war closed, everyone hoped for tho restoration of the South. For several years, the Republican parly i claimed they would restore it, but now they say it is worso than ever before. I want to see the South placed in the hands of its own people, without the aid of the gun and the bayonet, and on tho Democratic idea, that this istbe people's government. Tho Republi? can party made capital out of Southern troubles. Now, I wuut to seo a party whoso gain, in this respeot, shall be founded on the restoration of the Sonth." -? ^ ? ? Mr.jQuston, the Democratic candi? date for Governor of Massachusetts, in his first campaign Bpeech at New Bedford, demanded justice for the South.

Editok Phoenix: In your issue of the 22d iust., my name appeared as a can? didate for the Legislature on a ticket uudor the style of "The People's Ticket." My name was used without my consent or sanctiou. The Execu? tive Committee of tho Conservative party having recommended that the Conservatives givo their unanimous and undivided support to the Nash County tioket, as a Conservative, I feel pledged to support that ticket, and must decline any nomination for any ollieo whatever. ResDectfully, W. II. STACK. A Washington letter says: "Tho third term idea may now be considered a9 effectually and finally 'played out,1 and it makes no difference whether President Grant opeus his mouth auy further or will rest his case with the answer which he is alleged to have given to Liu persistent Kunsas ques? tioner. A significant ctrcumstaucc which bus uttracted atteution tho lust two or three days is the freedom with which the officials here, both high und low, now speak their minds on tho ' lubjeot. Up to within a week it was I next to impossible to obtain from any official here one word adverso to a l third term for tho President. Now it is just as difficult to meet oue who does not declare his stern disapproval of suoh a proposition. The editonal de? nunciation of the third term by tho Indianapolis Journal has created a marked seosatiou hero. This paper, I which is tho central Republican organ of Indiana, bus always been under? stood to refieot the personal views of Senator Morton. When it says that unless the President speaks out before December, the Republicans iu Con? gress must declare against the third term, it is undsrotocd here that this is a notice to all concerned that Senator Morton intends to offer from his seat suoh a declaration. Ever siuco tho Pre? sident separated from Governor Mor? ton on tho ourrency quostion the latter has been opposed to tho third term. It is belioved that bad his wishes pro vailed tho Indiana Republicans would have pronounced against it at the opening of the State campaign. If Governor Morton is not quicker than usual, ho may, however, have his thunder stolen. Other Republican Congressmen now contemplate doing what is threatened by his organ, and furthermore, there is uutlfbrity for the statement that whatever course way ho resolved upon by Republican Congressmen, there is a determination on the part of Domooratic members to have tbo matter brought up both in the Sunate and the House in euch a shape us to put every member on tho record, and to demolish finally and forever 'third term nonsense.' " A Oouule Thaciedy.?A horriblo homioido was committed on Suturduy, about 2 o'clock, at Gardener's planta? tion, three or four miles from the village of Mount Pleasant. Tho au? thor of tho bloody deed is a colored man, between tweuty-five ami thirty years old, named July Smalle, and hi's victim his father, and probably his mother. Ho does not deny tbo por potration of the deed, and is supposed to bo doranged from tho effects of epi lopsy. Tho old father of the prisoner reprimanded him about moting some cotton, when a quarrel ensued. Tho eon then procured a stout oak stick, with which he assaulted his father, giviug him thrco blows on tho head, killing him instantly. Tho mother of tho prisoner and wifo of tho murdered man attempted to interfero, and .'die was likewise assaulted aud struok seve? ral times with tho same weapon, trom the effects of which, it was thought last evening, she would also die.

HcrrlbU Drain After the Mmt Fiend- 1 lah Torturt-Jlorthtrntri to tho Hucot, Neab New Orleans, La., September 18, 1874. To my brethren in the North this horrible tele o? ray Sufferings, among i the White Leaguers, in addressed: I I have been a ear pet-bagger?oame Sooth and went to Northern Louisiana ovor three years since. How I was elected Sheriff of n County it is unne? cessary to relate. Perhaps the lesaaaid on this subject the better. Two years I served, when one day I fonud myself beiDgohasod through wood and twamp, through bog and log, by a vile gang of miserable ont-throat White Leaguers and their blood-bouude. I finally "treed" in a hollow, prostrate tree. Those fellows have au instinct for fer? reting out oarpet-baggera. They found mv Ino. I ?J - - %j - "Hallo, in there, you oppressor, you oarpet-bag thief, come out aud be leagued," was their polite invitation. Without duo consideration, ? an? swered, "lain't in here," just like Ben. Butler when he was "bottled up" on tho James. "Oh, you nreu't, eh?" auswered a gruff voice. "Well, wo'il see. We have two cans of nitro-glycerine and ten kegs of powder under your present residence, nnd nre just about to fire tho train." "Ob, ah! Don't hurry. What do you want?" "Come out aud be Ku Klaxed qui? etly, nnd we promise only to hang you; otherwise, vonr fate will he dread? ful." "But Cougress bus passed a luw al? lowing the President to make use of troops for your dispersal; the writ of fiubeaa corpits may now be suspended." "Aud so 'ill your corpus be sus poudod; that, too, this veiy day." Come out, I say." I remonstrated, entreated, linally read the riot act, the law allowing cer? tain rights of doubted constitutionality to the President, und even Grant's last proclamation. '?Ugh! dry up your reudiu' lessons. Are you comin' out? I'll count three, then if you dont" ? He counted three pretty rapidly, 1 thought, us I supplicated iu vain. Aud iu the midst of n thundering ex? plosion that seemed almost to split my log up?up we went, tbe log aud my? self?up through aud far ubovc the great tree-tops, swiftly up and away toward the suu, with the speed of ligbtuing. I soon recovered from the shock, and ?uding myself unhurt, clambered up to the aperture of the log, which kept in n perpendicular po? sition owing to the weight of the dirt encumbered roots. Looking out .1 suw we were flying Sooth ward. The speed of travel was 6uch that iuu few mo? ments the log alighted on the levee of the Mississippi Iii vor. uot far above New Orleans, and such was the force of our alightiug that tho whole levee was crcvasscd twouty feet up and dowu tho river. I bad no time or op? portunity to spring upon the land be? fore my tree was carried swiftly away, onward aud yet onward to aud down Lake Pouchartrain, upon whose banks I soon stranded iu a small, land-iocked bay, fringed with monster cypress. Stranded and landed io the hands of the White Leaguers of Louisiana, liight among these cypresses they were holding a secret meeting, and I had come upon them in tbe midst, aud witnessed most of their ceremonies. They seized and bouud me. I pro? tested, supplicated?promised?swore uever to divulge anything 1 had seen, and I never will. All availed not. I must die, they said. No trial was ne? cessary, By my accent they knew I was a carpet-bagger. I must undergo the penalty mauo und provided for such cases. I was led to a little knoll, and securely bouud to a stake. While these preparations were going forward I had time to observe my persecutors. They were ull in uniform?the uni? formity of the most grotesque variety, some having wings like Satan's, which ceaselessly flapped forward aud aft; others were adorned as ebony skele? tons, and their bones clauged with a hollow rattle that frozo the blood iu my veins. The majority had cloven feet, and nil sported long devil's tails, terminated by arrow heads, which, as they continually cocked their tails over their shoulders in my directiou, shot forth fiery tongues, more horror inspiring by far than tho "worm that uever dioth," impatient it seemed to lick tho life-blood from my frame. The colors of their habiliments were as varied ns tbe wearers were nume? rous, yet o?o tint prevailed?a kiud of sulphurous, glowing, yellow green flame, which iu shapes that were no shapes, glimmered aud trembled aud flickered like tho resolves of a drunk? ard or tbo promises of a politician. Naturally, I could not observe all this in so short a time, but it is true; for I have read such descriptions frequently in our papers, and what the latter have omitted and I didn't obsetve, my ima? gination supplied. My imagination uever lie?. As I said, they bouud me to a stake, aud lirst compelled me to drink a por? tion of nitro glycerine. Then saturat? ing a long strip of paper iu the same, they placed ouo eud of it iu my mouth, and connected tho other end with u small powder chamber. Prom this chamber passed two wires, one to the negative pole of a battery, the other to au "operator's key," by a mcro touch on the finger button of which the circuit would ho completed, und the power oommuuioatiug with the glycerine exploded. Tho method was horrible, tho execution more so; for instead of touching mo off at once, they took their rifles, nud going about 100 yards from the key, after much wrangling, betting on tho result, and tossing up for the first nhot, began a shooting-mateh to see which should bit the button of the key. Imagine, bre? thren, if you can, my horrid euspenae as shot after ?bot was fired, and I ex? pected each to be the heraid of my fate. How I watched the ioug barrels come slowly to a level?strained my eyes to detect the slightest tremor on which to found a hope of lifo?how I wished to live, yet prayed that the next ball might speed true, aud end a suspense far worse than death itself. The fiends knew well the hellish tor? ments of suoh suspense, 01 were uo-1 steady from liquor, for they coutiuued firing until nigiilfull. Then gathering' around me and placing some sentries, they fell uBleep. In the morning they gave me more glycerine, moisteucd the paper again, and continued their demoniac sport. When the sun was getting far to the West, a brawuy man who had as yet not fired a shot, arose, brought his loug riiio to the horizontal?'.?imnil long and carefully lowered the barrel to brush some dust from the fruul sight?raised it again, aitnod more carefully. I fixed my eyes upou bis finger, and saw it slowly approaching the trigger?"500 to one I hit," he bawled. "Taken," shouted a coin pinion. Aguiu he aimed I in? stinctively buttoned rnj coat und squeezed my bauds to my sides to re? sist tbo in ward explosion. I Haw his finger press the trigger. Instantly I "busted" iulo 1,000 atoms, and was scattered over the whole State of Lou i iuua. And uow, oh! my brethren of the North; oh! Congress of tho na? tion; oh! mighty President of my be? loved country, that was from my 1,000 gravis, I call upon you all, I eoLjure v.jU?swear by the sacred truth of this narrative ? truth which no creed or party will deny?swear to avenge my horrid death by sweeping from the land all such White Leaguers as I have described. Seud your soldiers duwu here, pick me up and put mo iu my little oarpet-bag. Yours iu death, JEAN PRY.

Iu an editorial of tho 15th iust., comment? ing on the Ohio and Indiana elections, it says: "The conditiou of the South ic not winning to the Republican votes. No one doubts that tho Presideut did his duty in puttiug down the New Or? leans leagues last month, but still this duty was not calculated to excite any j great amount of enthusiasm for his party." It accuses tbo Republican leaders of circulating unreliable reports concerning Southern outrages, in ex? pectation of exhibiting Democratic de? pravity; but the public seem to have thought that however depraved tho Democrats may havo *been, tho exist? ence of a reigu of terror in tho South was something for which Republican* were not wholly irresponsible.

An Old Indian.?Fopo Pius IX has lately received from Santa Cruz, Cal., through Cardinal Francbi, Prefect of the Propaganda, the photograph of an Indian still living, who has reaohed the age of 122 years. Beneath the pioture nro these words, written in Spanish by the old mau himself: "I, Juatiuiano Roxas, 122 years old, wish the most holy Pope long years of lifo." The parish register of Santa Cruz shows that Roxas was baptized March 1, 1702, being at that time about forty years of ago. He hos always led an exemplary life, still walks to mass on Sunday with no help but that of his staff, and asks the blessing of the Pope, whom ho calls tho "Capitan de los padres." The registration in Now York, which was completed on Saturday, shows a total vote of 146,075, against 123,878 last year, and 149,010 in 1873.
