A Kejoinder. Editor Times and Democrat: I have made it a rule in life never to enter into a newspaper correspondence, unless I knew the man to be of such standing, as that, I would not lower myself by noticing him. I therefore, do" not intend this as a reply to A. M. Snider, about whom 1 know but littl2; but I am impelled by a sense of justice to my constituents, to answer the un just "and unfair criticisms circulated through the Columns of "The times and Democrat" and otherwise over the countv. These criticisms culmi nate in villainy and falsehood in pamphlet form. I met Mr. Snider in his own section of the county, viz.: at Evans' Mill September 5th, and before an intelligent and respectable audience, reputed the criticisms in "Times and Democrat" of August EG. 1 produced and read publicly testimonials from two of the Orangeburg delegation and one from Harnwell, members of the House during two years of my term, (the third from Orangcburg 1 received afterwards) of which 1 will take notice later. Mine accuser was present but did not reply. The next week, only a few days before the prinuiry, he floods the county with more false statements which I did not then have time to stamp as they deserve. Sir. Snider says. "If I fail to give you a clear, lucid, unbiased and satisfactory proof and evidence of these charges upon a demand (or not) for the same, then brand me forever as a black-coat" etc. Now, 1 demand, from what follows, that his own im precations be visited upon him. In the first plaice, he has misquoted the letter of Hon. M. F. Molony. The "Constitu tion" allows any citizen to attack another, but it does not allo\v any citi zen to propagate falsehood on another. He attemps to quote: "Rev. 11. H. Tarrant. Rev. and Hear Sir. Tours to hand and 1 hasten to reply," I have the original letter from which I read, and that quotation does not occur. As to "unsolicited." A friend of mine, called to see me. in my absence he left, a message that Hon. M. F. Molony had expressed himself publicly, on this matter and was willing to give his testimony; hence 1 wrote for what was already offered. Why did not Mr. Sni der criticise the other testimonials read from his own County, one of which used his name, in stich a manner as might well have excited his indigna tion; it looks to be the act of a coward, to attack a gentlemen who makes no allusion to him, but simply gives his testimony as to the action of a member of the House of Representatives, at the time that he was a member. But why this? The name of M. F. Malonv needs no encomium at my hands, needs no defence. Thuc name will live en shrined in the memory and heart of -every true Democrat of South Carolina for ages when that of A. M. Snider and his "graduate" shall have sunk into oblivion, "unwept, unhonored and un sung." The pamphlet mistakes again, when it says : "Got leave of absen ce to go to Granil Lodge in Charleston '84 and '85." I said no such thing, but mentioned the years '82 and $3 as ob taining leave of absence ' to attend Grand Lodge. In 'S4 I obtained leave of absence to see my sick family. 1 left Columbia Sunday morning, (so anxious was I about them) stopped at Orangeburg, hired conveyance and went home same day. Great stress is laid on my taking the cars at Graham's instead of riding twenty-live, miles to Orangcburg in buggy. The Comptrol ler General must have made a mistake, (Mr. Snider never does) for I generally board the train at Hlackville as that is my depot of trade, but I confess, I never thought of it before, and plead guilty, for I might have gone all the way to Columbia by private conveyance and saved all that expence to the county. He says, "I left the House whenever dinner hour arrived." I was not aware of the fact, don't remember to have ever left an important session of the House for dinner or anything else, but the informer of Mr. Snider may have been a closer observer of my actions than I was myself on these small mat ters. Now, fellow citizens, I come to what I think may properly be denomi nated "diabolical," for the devil is oalled the "father of lies." No gentle man will upon "information," not sub stantiated, publish to the detriment of the humblest citizen a false statement. 1 have a record of every marriage cere mony ever performed by nie, and that record is open for public inspection. i have never attended a marriage cere mony nor been present at one during any session of the Legislature since I have been a member. Mr. Snider must produce his '-authority" or stand brand ed before the public is a liar. In the last clause of the pamphlet Mr. Sni der says, "nor did I get any aid from any living being or any other source but from the Record, etc. In the name of common decency has the man in! regardJ.'or his reputation, for truth and honor? In the same pamphlet, page 3rd. he says after making a charge?"! have authority for the above." In the next line?**] have also been informed." "Now. every body knowns the House Journal don't tell* when "I went to din ner," when 1 went to U) cents shows or when 1 went home to uiarn couples that I diil not marry. Mr. Snider say.-, by inference at least, that he got all this muss of information from the "Daily and Weekly News and Courier." Why does he read both. Daily and Weekly? ! have never seen an\ such stu? in the '?News and Courier" und don't think it was ever in its columns, for i think that paper is careful us to the truth oi what it publishes and would hol belitllo iis coin nns with such stuiv. even if it were true. Now, I have written thus plainly, only in justice tu my constituents. Accompany ing this, are the testimonials <>f {Repre sentatives it; the House with me, some of whom ate with me, slept with me . and attended the sessions of the House with mc. and ought to know of my actions, whether I attended to my duties or no. You must judge between them and Mr. Snider and his prolific "source of information." I have no time nor disposition to bandy epithets with Mr. Snider nor any one else, there fore ! have done, and leave the matter tn public judgment and am willing to abide thiil deeission. I am very re spectfully a citizen of Orangehurg Countv. " I>. I!. tarrant. September 21st. 188?. The following are the letters referred to above : W.u. it, //. rant : Rev. and Ueai: Sh: : I see that one A.M. Snider has, through The Times and I)kmu< kat, assailed your work in the Legislature during a period of four years. I had the honor to represent Orangeburg County during a period of two of these years, and I know up to the 19th of December, 1883, you were absent only when attending the. Grand Lodge of Masons. On the 19th of De cembpr, 1883,1 was obliged to remain in my room and did so up to the 23rd, when I obtained leave of absence through the recommendation of my phosician, Dr. W. W. .Smith, a member from Barnweil. During my ? illness, four days, von were at my room con tinually*. In fact, had it not been for you. I would have fared badly. With these exceptions, you were always at your post,looking after the interests of your County and State. I cannot see why your record should be attacked by hin"), "unless it is to gratify the spleen of some unfortunate aspirant who seeks, through him, to ventilate his evil emotions. liest assured, that such conduct will not only rest heavily and siucidnlly upon his shoulders but upon those, by whom he has, perhaps unknowingly, been used us a cat's paw. Truly your friend, 11. V. Daxxelly. August 30th, 1880. blackvillk, S. C. August 31st, 1886. Rev. R. B. Tarrant: My Dear Sib :?Your favor just received in which you say that some party has circulated a report that you were absent frequently during the Ses sions of the Legislature in 1882 and ! 1883. During the years mentioned I was a member of the House of Representa tives, your seat was near mine, and I often remarked that you were always at your post doing your duty to your conscience and State. I say more, that in the sessions of the Legislature re ferred to your course was distinguished, by intelligence and patriotism. Were I a citizen of Orangeburg County I would support you with all my zeal, and all the gifts Cod his given me. Yours faithfullv. M. F. Moloxy. I had the honor of being a member of the Legislature from Orangeburg County during the terms 1882 and 1883 at the same time Hon. K. l\ Tarrant was a member. I hereby certify, that to the best of my knowledge, he was absent from each session but once and then on "leave of absence." That he attended the sessions as regularly as other members and attended, as far as I know, faithfullv to bis duties. Signed this 3Uth day of August, 1886. H. G. Frederick. I was in the Legislature with Rev. It. B. Tarrant during the session of '82 and part of 83, and I do not think he was absent from roll call any more than the rest of the Orangeburg Delegation. He was as watchful in attending to the interest of his constituents, from his standpoint, as any of the delegation. Ira T. Shoemaker. INDIAN RELICS FOUND. Several Skeletons Unearthed?Among Tlieio one of mi Infant. Columbia. S. C, Sept. 23.?Near the Waterec river, in this county, there is a small elevation of land known as Black's Mount. It has long been re garded as an Indian mound, but no at tempt has been made to ascertain whether this supposition is true or not, but recently some interesting specimens have been uncovered by the heavy rains. These consist chiefly of what appear to be petrifactions of wood, oyster shells, etc. Almost opposite this mount, across the river, in Kcrshaw county, there are similar elevations, and the spring Hoods revealed some very valua ble ludiau relics. Among these were arrows, battle-axes, and arrow points. An urn unbroken was discovered, and on being opened was found to contain a skeleton of an infant. Several skele tons were unearthed. As this location was never used as a burying ground by whites or blacks within the memory of man, as the remains now brought to the I surface of tile earth, together with the other relics mentioned, show that the Indians buried their dead here ages ago. Some few years since some negroes were ploughing on a plantation about ten miles bclc.v Columbia, on the Con garce river. One of them felt the poiut of his plow strike a hard substance, and on examination he found au immense burial urn, containing all the bones of a skeleton, a string of beads and a paint brush and gallettc. The urn was pre sented to the State Department ol Agri culture, but, at the earnest solicitation of Prof. Spencer Baird, was loaned to the Smithsonian Institute, and it is con sidered one of the most interesting speci mens of the kind in the extensive collec tion ofthat Institute. 11 was about three feet high, about a foot in diameter and the carving or moulding on it was exquisite. It was made ol the river mud of t'le Congarcc, but bv a baking process had been made as hard as a brick. The archaxdogisls could Hud many such in teresting specimens m this vicinity, the I lio.ne of the Cougarec Indians. ?Augus | la ( Iironn-le. A Distressing Cuse.

A Young Woman .Soundly Thrashes Two Scoundrels Who Attack Her. Reading, Pa., September 15.?A posse of citizeus are searching the woods of Richmond Township for two well dressed strangers who made a desperate effort to criminally assault Nettie Little, a dairy-maid, who was passing along a lonely road from the farm of Ellerv Kaufman. The occurrence was distinct ly seen by two farmers in a neighboring orchard picking apples. The young wo man, being too much overcome with ex citement and prostrated by nervousness, was unable to give her story for some time. The farmers say their attention was attracted by the young woman's loud screams. They looked in the di rection of the noise and saw her vigor ously applying a heavy horsewhip across the i'ace and shoulders ol'tfie men. She held one bv the coat and cut him severe ly lash after lash until he broke away in apparent agony. Just before this time his friend came to his relief, when she lashed him thoroughly, cutting a welt across his eyes. Finally both ran. the young woman following after and cutting them as they dashed through the mud up a bank into the woods. Then the young woman tell to the road exhausted, while 'lie farmers pursued the scoundrels into the dense woods, where they had evaded the constables at the laLcst accouuls Miss Little, after being helped home, was put to bed. Later on she said that she was driving a few cows to the mea dow. Before she went she took a heavy black snake whip, because she had seen a number of Gypsies in the woods. When she got to a turn in the road the two strange men met her. One of them said she was a pretty girl and the other offered her a silk handkerchief. The first who spoke then made an effort to catch her right hand to take her whip, when she cut him across the eyes so that the blood spurted. Then occurred the desperate struggle above described, fol lowed by the flight of the men. Are port was received to-night that the men were arrested, and will be brought to jail to-morrow. They will be promptly tried, as the criminal court is now in session. CHARLESTON'S PROGRESS. The City Itapidly Recovering? Every tiling ?Working Smooth. Charleston, Sept. 24.?Letters having been received from all parts of the country, asking whether the period of great distress in Charleston has not passed, a statement is authorized that tiie Relief Committee, through the gen erosity of their fellow-countrymen, feel themselves in a position to lurulsh sub sistance and temporary shelter to all. who need it, but at the same lime the committee estimate that the relief funds at command or in prospect fall short of the money needed to put in a habita ble condition the homes of persons who arc unable to repair their buildings with out public aid. The Govenmcnt engine ers have iuspected 000 buddums out of 7.000 in the city and estimates the dam age to those inspected at two million dollars. Their inspection, however cov ers the most of the costliest structures. The Relief Committee in assis'itig the needy householders to make their resi dences habitable will deal first with those, whose losses arc small, the object being to make as many roofs as possible light, foundations secure, and chimneys safe before the cold weather comes. The homes of widows and orphans and other helpless persons will have the para mount claim. No loss of any person owning more than one house will he considered at this time. The intention also is to disallow all claims for plaster ing, as not being iudispeusihle to reason able safety and comfort. The subsis tence Commissary has supplied nearly all persons requiting provisions, and the number of rations issued to-day was the smallest since the commissary was established. The force of clerks and the wording lorce is being gradually re duced. To-day was very quiet. No shocks were lelt and there were only slight tremors at Summervillc.

When the resources of Nature have become retarded, no matter from what cause, it is then quite time to help Ihe LiTer and Spleen, and other organs, to perform their thorough duty?or we shall soon L? quite ill. In s?eh cases there is no more natural remedy than a mild cathartic, one which will be. sure to perform its duty without injuring the system in the least. Such, let us say in all candor, is Simmons' Hepatic Compound. It will gently move the bowels, without irritating- them in the least; when the medicine works, the bowels are soothed and healed like a charm?yet the medicine is more effec tive than Calomel: one of the principal ingredients possess all the good qualities of that poisonous drug, without any of its constituents. A dose of Simmons' Hepatic Compound every night on going to bed, will infallibly restore health. Testimony of the highest con sideration from every portion of the country, and from all classes of people, abundantly substantiate this fact. The importance of this treatment cannot be over-estimated, and it should be tried by all means. Dr. J. (}. Wannamaker, Wholesale Agent for Orangeburg Couuty. . .1 Cure for Piles Piles are frequently precceded by a sense of weight in the back, loins and lower part of the abdomen, causing the patient to suppose he has some affec tion of the kidneys or neighboring or gans. At times, symptoms of indiges tion are present, flatulency, uneasiness of the stomach, etc. A moisture like perspiration, producing a very dis agreeable itching, after getting warm, is a common attendant. Blind, Bleed ing and Itching Tiles yield at once to the application of Dr. Bosankos Pile Picmedy. which acts directly upon the parts affected, absorbing the Tumors, allaying the intense itching, and effect ing a permanent cure.

To effect this noble and patriotic purpose the com mittee would appeal to the ladies of the County to lend their assistance. The object Is one that commends itself to every true heart. Our honored dead must not be for gotten. We uuvo uegiecieo mis duty too long already. Let us with one mind engage in this excellent work. Let there be no abatement in our zeal until we shall have completed a Monument worthy of our dead heroes We would therefore call upon the ladies in each Township hi the County to form Monumental Associations, for the purpose of raising funds for building it suitable monument to our Confederate dead. When ten Townships have organiz ed, let these Township associations form a. central association, with the proper and. necessary officers. We sincerely trust that this appeal will net be iu vain. What Township will be the first to organize, and engage in this important work? I. F. DUKES, Chairman, W. T. LICS?TFOOT, Secretary. Z. M. WOLFE, N. N. HAYDEN, T. K. LEGALE.
