First Kale. A gentleman of varacity sends us the following count for Governor, which took place upon the Greenville and Columbia Railroad the other day, immediately after the adjournment of the Legislature; Gary, 15; Ilagood, 8; Wallage, 5; Kershaw, 3; Conner, 3;scattering 3. A closer count showed fully two thirds to be in favor of Gary, and they too representative men of the up country. Hurrah for that! The "Bald Eagle" is invincible, and is bound to be Governor. The Negro Exodns and the New York Times. This sheet, the exponent of more radi cal hatred, than ever any thundercloud has of electricity, speaks of these poor unfortunate creatures as being "driven" from "a genial climate," aod "familiar occupations1' to the "cold, inhospitable clime of Kansas." If the ink that penned these infernal falsehoods had not been diluted so often by a thousand such misstatements, there would have been enough brimstone in it, to have destroyed half of New York. Who has ever driven the colored man from us? Who basever tried to get them off, unless it be some shrewd Western planter who was only taking him to benefit his own pocket? It is a bald face perversion of truth, and no body knows it better than the Times. Lying seems to be at a premium in American Journalism, and we are quite satisfied that this sheet, with its Washington and Chicago contemporaries, is fully entitled to the choicest box in the theatre of untruth. But time correct* all things, and so let it be. The following extract gives a frightful picture of their condition : A number of prominent New Yorkers have issued an urgent appeal for funds to alleviate the sufferings of the colored refugees in Kansas. The appeal states that there are 15,000 or 20,000 of them iu the State, and they continue to arrive every day, "ragged and barefooted, and without money." It is added that many are sick from exposure to the severe climate, and a number have frozen to death. They arc unable to get employment, as they are simply farm laborers, and farming operations are now at a stand-still. This is a gloomy representation, but doubtless a true one, and illustrates the shortsightedness, to say the least, of those who were instrumental in causing these ignorant people to sacrihce their small savings and desert their Southorn honors for promised high wages and cktlty honspa -tfc^iaV.ospitnble climate-o! Kansas, News Items. Woohinorfnn'R hirthdav was celebrated " p j in grand style in madj cities od last Monday. A. negro girl living: near Albany. Ga., who bad her limbs crushed in a railroad accident, has recovered $25,000 damages from the Georgia Central railroad. The National Democratic Convention for the nomination of candidates for the Presidency and VicePresidency of the United States will? be held in Cinx cinnati, Ohio, on the 22d of June next. Mr. E. Palacois, the Chilian consul resident in San Francisco, in passing through New York recently, told a reporter of the World that he considered the war between Chili and Peru at an end, and Peru crushed. It is reported that the Supreme Court will confirm the decision of Railroad Commissioner Bonham, sustained by Judge Mackey, that cotton must be charged for by railroads by weight and not by bulk. This will be a saving to the public. The American Congress has donated three hundred thousand dollars to the poor famine-stricken people in Ireland. America has to teach England?the socalled centre of civilization and Chris tianity?what common humanity is. It is the oppression of the English landlord that has brought this terrible calamity upon those poor people. A dispatch from 31 ur trees boro, Tenn., says: Fully 10,000 persons witnessed the hanging of John Hall and Burrell Smith, Dear Little Creek on last Friday, for the murder of Henry Pugh in 1879. The scaffold was erected within three hundred yards of the public Bquare, and raised seats had been erected facing it. sittings upon which were sold for one dollar apiece. Hall died without a struggle, bat Smith's death was painfully prolonged. Tbe Russian government officials are considerably alarmed at the spread of Nihilism, and the aspect of affairs is becoming more serioas every day. Since the explosion at the Winter palace, the authorities have been notified that thev need not make any preparations for au illumination on the occasion of the Czar's anniversary, for they (the Nihilists) will show them such an one as has not been since Home was burned by Nero? they intend to fire St. Petersburg Most piteous tales of famine and distress are now coming to us from Russia. The news from the interior of the< Kuipire is heart rendiug. Fainiue and diphtheria are decimating the population in the province of Saratof, and Kief, which annually export, in or dinary times, enormous quantities uf grain, had scarcely any crop last year. The calamity is aggravated by the want of fodder for the cattle, peasants being forced tosell them. In the Caucasus the famine is still greater, and the people are committing suicide and selling their children. The Rev Mr. Cowley, who had charge p.t-- pi?"Pnlrt (on nrnhsn asv 01 me ouofjuiu o ji vn ?.r lum in New York) has been fined ?250 and sentenced to one y;ar inprison for cruelty to the children. The reverend old scoundrel tried to feed them on long prayers and sanctimonious looks, and sold the provisions that were supplied to the institution, pocketing the proceeds for himself. Some of the children were actually starved to death, while others were so cruelly beaten that they died from the effects A young man named Thomas Cox was killed by falling from a bridge over the Congaree River near Kingvill on the 18th mst. He was engaged in repairing some parts of the bridge of the ? * * * l l South Carolina Kailroad, wnen no iosii his balance and fell into the water. His head struck a projecting piece of timber, ana bis brains were dashed out. His body was carried away by the stream and bas not yet been found. He was between 22 and 23 years of age, and had been married only two weeks. His father lived at Graham's Turnout, on The South Carolina Railroad. Another attempt was made on the life of the Czar of Russia last week, by the blowing up of a portion of the Winter Palace. The Roynl family were to dine at C o'clock, and the mine was fired off at that time, but, fortonately for the Czar and his family, none ofj them had entered the room.
