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

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.

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.

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.

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

GOOD WORK WITH A HORSEWHIP.
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. Busi
is active and merchants are hopeful.

Assisting Nature a Little Bit.
. 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.

. .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. Price 50 cents.

An Appeal to S?:e Ladies oi*
Oraugcburg' County.
At a meeMnf of the Survivors of the
Second Regiment S. C. V. Artillery, (Con
federate States Army,) held at Branchvllle
on the second day of July, 1SSC, it was de
termined to erect a monument to those
brave and gallant sons of the County who
fell fighting for the "lx>st Cause." The
undersigned were appointed a committee to
carry out this determination. 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?
