Last Saturday wa9 to liave been a grea day for the "Republicansof Edgefield, aw "the adherents ot Cain, Simpkins auc JIcDevitt were gatlfered together from far and near to hear Congressman Smalh tell them how their liberties were in danger from such arch rebels as Butler, Gar} Bonham and others, and what course the} should pursue to trample undet their feel these fomentors of discord and plotter! against the continuance in power of th< noble band that has ruled Edgefield -County during the -last eight years. ITaving gi^ui Butler such a raking in <Jongreas, Smalls probably expected to .find the Sioux of Edgefield thoroughly cowed and ready to 6how the white feather, and his victory was so well assured that he took the Governor and Judge Mackey along to witness the greal enthusiasm that awaited the reception ol me congressman who, us lie said in Congress, was indorsed by 1-4,000 majority o his-constituents. How he was receive* and how he fired the hearts of the multi tude is described as follows by the cor respondent of fho News and Courier: "As soon ap the Republicans had taker the stand about 6ix hundred mounted whites rode up with a largo crowd 01 foot and demanded half of the time fo Democratic speakers. The Governo: assented, and agreed to half an hour lb each speaker. The stand was the* crowded with Demociats and Republi cans. The Governor spoke first, but sai< very little, and was evidently under grea restraint. He spoke of his desire to re form -the State, and compared himself, it this respect, to Governor Tilden. Hi Jield that, it elected, he could do mor<: towards reform than any one else. Mean time fiie Democrats kept crowding cIobci to the stand, showing a detcrnination to <lo everything lawful to break the meet ing up. About this time the stand caun flown with a crash, but was replaced, an* Gen. Butler replied to the Governor. Hi made a very bitter speech, speaking oui boldly his opinion of the Governor. If* saidtthat Smalls and the Governor had -denounced him as a leader of Ku-KIuj and regulators. If they had made tliit statement, believing it to be tme, he wni there face to face, and defied them tc prove it. If they did not rise aud prove it they stood confessed liars. Uo prooi was offered. Judge Mnckey next 6poke endorsing Governor Chamberlain, anil lioldlng that he -could do more for thf Democrats than one of their own party, Tie said he knew they could elect theii county ticket, bat thought it unwise ir *heiu to oppose the Governor. Gen. Garj .followed iu a very hot speech aguinsttlu Governor, in which ho abused him ronnt iy, accusing iiim of fraud and corruptior ?nd of willmgly keeping Treasure] JMcDevitt in power after his rnsealitj Jiad been made known to him. Judg< Mackey then rose again, but whb so fre quently interrupted by the Democrats 4hat he could say nothing. At this point, ithe stand fell flat, prostrating every one upon it except Gen. Butler, who remained perched upon the only point left standing. "This mishap was received by the Demo crata frith cheer after cheer, as significant that Radicals would go down and the Democrats stay up. The negroes by this lime were completely hacked. Qoveruoi Chamberlain and dmalls left the stand, and with the negroes moved off toward the village, followed by the Democrats ?f we ring And jeering, and threatening t< break them up wherever they went tr speak. Judge Mackcy, who had followed the Democrats, made an out-and-out Democratic speech,.mill, however, endor sing Chamberlain as being able to do more for the Democrats than one of tholi own iparljr. The Judge's speech wnt loudly cheered by the Democrats. The meeting then adjourned, fbe Democratic Ihorsemen keeping tip cheer after cheer. It was rumored, later in the evening, that Ihe-ncgroee had threatened to firt the town, and fhe Democrats called theii forces together and camped a little waj oat of town, in case of emergency. Then was no disturbance of any kind.

I TII Tbe Accused Itelcafted on Bail. e The application for bail in behalf c j ihc parties accused of complicity in tli , Hamburg riot was heard by Judg ' Malicr, last Thursday at chambers. Earl; 1 in the morning, fifty five of the sixty-on L Carolinians charged assembled at Granite ville and surrendered to Sheriff Jordar i who awaited them there, aud the lon| cavalcade, all mounted, then marchei r into Aiken, attended by a large nutnbe ! of their friends. Upon reaching th t Lyceum, where the court was to sit, th i roll was called, aud the prisoners asseru 5 bled in the hall. The counsel for tin i accused, when the court had convened . submitted over one hundred and tliirt; affidavits of prominent and substantia gentlemen, showing that the shootinj r was commenced by the negroes Iron J the building where they wote barricade!

The counse waved argument, and the judge decidec ( that the prisoners were entitled to bail . and the matter of amount of bail wa submitted to counsel for discussion. Th | attorney-general wanted from five to tei thousand dollars apiece ; but after argu | nient l>y Governor Bonham, Geu.

A correspondent of t!jc Atlanta Cod stitution 1ins bf en on a visit to BlufTtoj nnd writes as follows: The only apparently uninjured rice crop we noticed for miles was that of th Messrs. Ilejward & Guerard 011 Nev River. These enterprising planters hav between ^fivc and six hundred acres o j growing rice, spreading out to the rigli nnd left of the road like a green carpet ' to a considerable distance. The crop wa r sufficiently advanced to stund the delugi ' witliont mucli damage, and we are glut 1 of It, for these gentlemen are energetic | bard working farmers. Tin: yield o 5 their crop is estimated at about sixty fiv? bushels to the acre, which is very large Wc were informed, however, of aonv ' j other p'nccs which arc now planted for 1 chc first time since the war, where it 11 c' thought the yield w ill reach cighty-flv< r or one hundred bushels to the aero e. Nowhere are the effects of mieruh ?? llf IHB3P? f j to be seen n?<>re clearly than at the ol 0 dilapidated town of BlufTton. This pla< B | was once the home of some of the wealtl s! icst planters on the Seaboard, the ew f.dcnces of which yet remain in tl I, j ruins of elegant mansions and gardct l8 ' abandoned to weeds and rubbish. ll?l ? used to be extended that princely hosp r, talitv to visitors, which made Sout - Carolina famous, even in Europe.

The contrast between th condition of this section and Georgia painful." % The house resolution to amend tl f constitution so as to prevent the divisio e of the school fund among the differei religious sects is thought not to be < y much practical value. It prohibits th division of funds raised by taxation ft the support ot public schools, or derive j from any public fund therefor, that is t ^ say, for the support tf public scbooli ^ The resolution does not prohibit th r division or diversion of money raised h e tuxaiion or otherwise for any other pir e pose except the support of public schoo This leaves the general fund, and a other fundB of state treasuries subject t D . . obnoxious appropriations. J | THE 1IAXGIXG OF HNIPI J John Snipe paid the extreme penalt i of the law on Friday last, for themurd* 1 of General. Iloyard. As usual on sue 1 occasions the ministers of the variou ; churches in town spent a great deal c time with the criminal in an effort t prepare him for his appearance before ; Judge where his many stories as to tli i occurrence would not, as has been th r case here, leave any doubt as to who wa . the guilty parties. I The crowd that came in from th - cour try to witness the execution was vei r orderly ar.d well dressed and presented th e appearance of a Sunday gathering. N( P o chorlrv - * l-S-J ? >a?lMVtvn VI UWUU1U U1 any K1UU Wt e visible and it was very noticeable tin the colored people of our town avoide 1 the scene, the crowd around the ja 1 being made up of country people. 1 The gallows were erected in the wei \ end of ihe jail yard and were so hig a that the crowd on the outside had a goo e view of the culprit while he was awaitin I his doom on the platform. Snipe state !? that he alone was guilty and that Brigl : mus* he turned loose. ITe said that 1i II j was induced to accuse Bright of partic s j pation in the murder as lie hnd been tol ^ | that if lie made tliis statement he woul s 1 escape punishment. He said that a gla: c j of whiskey was the cause of the dee ^ ; and gnve (lie audience some advice as t i the evils of drink. After lie had finishe 3 his remarks, Rev.

Son c one fearing a personal encounter, as M Dawson refuses to tight a duel, has ba the gentleman arrested and placed und< i- bonds to keep the peace, which, accon n ing to Mr. Dawson's severe criticise ; would seem to liavo been entire! ! j unnecessary, as he asserts that Mr. Rhct e previous to his late duel, had consciei e tionsscruplcs against seiciing Ins disputi e according to the Code. f t The late excursion of tho colored -pci pie to Savannah, and the disturbance o ' tho wharf at the time of their departui from that city is still represented as hai j ing been riotous, or blood thirsty. Tl captain of the steamer has addressed ' card to the editor of tl>c News in whic | ho states that he saw no riot and was nr B aware that any had occurred until h . | saw the account in the papers.
