WEDNESDAY ROV. 10, 1886. B. S. DINKINS, Editor. The Seventh District was redeemed from Radical misrule by the defeat of Smalls, (colored) and the election of Gen. Elliott to Congress. This is an admirable com mentary on the wise administration of the. Democratic Party in this State. The col ered vote largely preponderates in this Dis-. trict, and Gen EUiott's election is due to i their desertion from the Republican ranks, and voting for the candidate of the Party in power. A dastardly assault was made upon Capt. J. M. Owens, of Indiantown, Williamsburg County, by a negro man on the 4th inst. The account in the News and Courier of the 5th says: -A young negro man named Sentry Brown attacked Capt. J. M. Owens with a fence-rail and strnck him two severe blows on the head making large gashes. Capt. Owens is over 70 years of age, and is a very quiet and estimable gentleman. His con dition is regarded as quite dangerous. La ter in the day a warrant for Brown's arrest was issued by Trial Justice J. N. Hammett. and Brown was arrested under it. Last night armed negroes gathered and released Brown from arrest. Before dawn this morning a party of white men proceeded to Brown's house and recaptured him. Brown was taken to the office of Trial Justice Ham mett under guard. About 12 o'clock to.day armed a began to gather at Hammetts office, a considerable demonstrations. The sheriff went down this afternoon for the purpose of bringing Brown to jail and avoiding a collision between the whites and blacks." Brown'was afterwards taken by Sherif ' and lodged in jail. The eort of the negroes to defy the lav was uncalled for and unprovoked. And it is to be hoped that the officials of Williams burg, aided by - the law abiding citizens, will speedily apprehend the ringleaders ol this bold attempt to set at defiance the law and see that they answer for their crime before the Courts of the land. A Day of Thanksgiving an( Prayer. The President has, in the followinq proclamation, appointed the 25th o the present month a day of thanks giving and prayer: It has long been the custom of th people of the United States, on a da In each.year especially set apart fo that purpose by their Chief Executiv to acknowledge the goodness an< mercy of God, and to invoke his cox tinued care and protection.

AR6(ONAUT'SOPMEnNTS TO 12 "DEVIL" FeLroN, S. C., Nov. 1st, 188 When we endeavored in eaga plentnly couched as possible, to cl printer's attention to certain words i: eommunication of our's, which appeare< print mis-spelt, we were then disposed readthese mistakes as mere typogra clerrors. or perhaps the more technical oversight of our own. From the teno1 "The "Devil's" Reply to Argonaut" it se that this was not the case. While we mit that "the desiZ is not the only one ;pes mistakes," (for the Angels in Hei aometimes fall) still the "devil's" asse. "that "Argonaut" has made, by his owi count, ai: mistakes to the devil's one, yiet by our ;nost emphatic contradie and our commnunicatiogis of 8th and 18th and the "devil's" reply, as they a ppear< the Tzxrs, will substantiate our declart of denial. The "small" number of fil mistakes which ho so generously acer us with, we decline to confess until we better authority than the "devil," for t< candid we do not entertain the samiec dence in the "devil's" knowledge of or saphrythat we have in-Cleveland's adun $ration. We claim that the "devil" mnade three mistakes to our one, or fou the "devil" including his reply to Argo the most ludicrous mistake of all. He not deny that "radient." "amnethist" "equatistical" are his original spelling pleads in extenuation that we had it' fhest" (granted; that's one mistake fc but i$didn't look nice to him, sohe c: ed it to "argethist" because it had a av cadence; a more dulcet sound, On the prine'le of spelling by the phonetic tem, didnt you dab it egertisticall sounds pretty much like egotistical, ar doesn't change the pronunciation oj woA" near ts uch as emmtitical,"a ,ives it an entirely different sound." He Ldits that be had to consult the dictionarY, knd had his attention not been called to it, iis journey from the cradle to the grave would have been made in blissful ignorance )f the correct spelling of amethYst. We I ,an't pronounco any encomium upon what seems to be the "devil's" conception of the rudiments of orthography, which is appar ently to spell every word as it is pronoun ced, nor will bis orthoepy meet with any i panegvrical commendation if he pronounc es each word as it isspelled. We wouldn't care to predict his success as a lexicogra pher. And now Mr. "Devil," fraue your bill of indit tment, with the specifications of our fifteen transgressions.--let the Tms'I readers be regaled with our execrable spell ing, publish to our fellow-citizens Argo naut's ignorance, and let us behold the lus tre of your intellectual acumen; do this, or shut up with your can't about "all the 'erong spefled words" Yor have marked, and for goodness sake never again attempt to correct our "wrong spelled words."
