Keitt.is advocati:g a third party. The Alliance does not want it and Col. Keitt will be aluo:t alone i these parts in his advocacy of such a scheme. We are not ready for that yet. Gen. Wade IIampton niade a speech n Charleston last week in which ne said he was out of polities. E e is now at his home near Columbia. "THE EASTER EGG." This is the title of a charming little story that will be published in The H1er ald and News the first week in A pril. It is from the pen of Dr. 0. B. Mayer, Sr., and was first written by him many years ago, and is now being revised and rewritten by him for publication in The Herald and News. We make this announcement so that if you are not now a subscriber you may begin in time tosecure this beautiful story. Send us in your name at once. After the "Easter Egg' is completed we will publish several other interest ing stories and articles during the year from the pen of this gifted writer. You should l,se no time in ordering lbe Herald and News, for you may wait until it is too late. It is for your bene fit as much as ours that this announee ment is made before hand. Judge Witherspoon thinks the law against carrying concealed weapons ought to be more rigidly enforced. He is right. As it is the law is a dead letter, and only an occasional negro is brought to trial for the oftlense. Columbia seems to be having as much trouble over the Canal as the State of South Carolina had before she' sold it. Columbia had better hold on to it now that she has it about com pleted. The killing of those Italians in New Orleans is greatly to be deplored. It is true that the mur.ier of Chief Hen nessev was cruel and unprovoked as sassination, but mob law should not be encouraged or countenanced. The fail ure of juries to do their duty will al ways lead to such results, and the con dition of things is very much to be de Dlored when it is so. If the jury was bribed all who took part in it should be made to suffer, by a strict enforcement of the law. -The whole city seems to have risen en mass;'thhat justice might be meted out to those who had violated the law and had been acquited by a corrupt jury, but in doing so they were violatt ing the law in the very act of giving -justice to offenders. No doubt those who were killed de served the fate they received, but it is a pitty the necessity should have arisen for administering justice in the mann er it was. Attorney-Gener'al Pope has assoct ated with him as counsel for the State in the Coosaw ease the IHon. (eo- S. Mlower, of Newberry. He could not have made a better selection. MIr. Mlower is one of the ablest young law yers in the State. The State Press Association will meet in Georgetown the last of April. We hope the committee on programme will look after tbe business part of the meeting as well as after the junketting expedition. Let us have discussions on practical questions relating to journ alism, and a little fun too, if you like. Palmer has been elected United States Senator from Illinoi. after a long and expensive contest. He is the first Democratic Senator fronm that State in a long time. We publish elsewhere a correspon dence between the Phosphate Commnis sion and the Coosaw Company looking to a compromise so that the mining of rock could be continued until the legal rights of all parties could be ascertained by the courts. We trust some arrangemenUtS can be made, for both parties are losing by the present status of the case. The Phos phate Commission declined thec ot'er of the Coosaw Company and the Coo saw Company declined the oiler of the Phosphate Commissioni. In the mean time the State is losing about .->ua a day in the shape of royalty. TUREE Cs 1tAL tuOA1-3 H ANG ES. Receiver Chamiberlain Wield. Hi.. Onicial Axe-The Headquarters. Moved.

H. Ti:lman, Hon. Y. J. 1'one, IIon. \'. Ii. Eilcrbe, i. J. D. Lioit- i S.er, Hon. tco. P. Walker, m'ei ie:s the board t phosphate com - : :.m :i-it i i:a m:tter of regret o JO.saw Mining comp11,aniy that it has >eC found :ecessary, in ordter to pr'o :(et their righits. to miake atty appica tion to the courts, an:d that soute ae cor:lnmodation colthi not have been reacihedl by which litigation yould have been ::voided. '1lhy have always de?ired to live a. law-abidilg citizens, conducting their ailairs oi business plrinecil,les, and avoiding al', cotnplica tion and litigatioi. But no alterna tive was left lhem, and in taking this course they have only exercised the privilee guaranteed to every citizen of having the rights which they claim to possess passed uponi by the Courts of the country. i;low oln the litigation will contin ue, it is of course impossible to say. But the (oosaw company is desirous of having it so constructed as to avoid any uninecessary delay and e:leuse, and reach a final couelusiol on the merits with all due s:eed, to act in this spirit, and to facilitate such a re sult. While, however, the matter is thus pending, there arises a practical and business question, upon which it may not be iiprop,r for me to address you. \\hen the act of the general assembly of I.'U went into eilect on March 1, 1S'1, out of respect to the action of tue general assembly, the Coosaw comtipa iy suspended operations for the time being, although they were advised that sueh legislation could not atlect, thent it the exercise of their previously ac quired contract rights. But they de sired no contlict with the authorities, wlhich, as they learn, would then have been brought about had they then con tinued miuing. They did not, however, waive in the least by such stoppage any rights to which they believed themselves enti tled, nor to they now deem it proper here to discuss the right to resume such operations under the order of the court. But they beg to say that they still earnestly desire so to arrange with your honorable board that peuding the iti_ atol they may continue_their op erationis in strict compliance with all the laws of the state and under the supervision of the board. They are advised, by mutual gn sent, "and without reference to any order of the court already made, that such an arrangement can be entered into without prejudice to the existing rights of any party, and by which the operations of the company shall cou tinue under the supervision of the board, and thus both the loss of roy alty to the State and damage to the coilnlav can be avoided. Tiie interest of the State and the Coosaw company are so closely Liter woven that it is impossible to et'et one without the other. We do not desire to injure or embarrass the State, and of course do not want to injure ourselves. Any prolotged suspension of operations will of course cause se rious damage, both to the State and company. Such damage is not only a loss of present revenue, but the break ing tip of an established business, of vaue both to the company and the State, and which, if interrupted for any length of time, it will be diill clt, if not impossible, to regain. The only porsous to be benefited would be our competitors in the busi ness of phosphate miuting, to whom our being out c:the mnarket, means freedom to that extent from campetition.. I feel that I am addressing business men, and that my motives and the motives of the company ini so doing will not be misconstrued ; and with this feeling, I beg to call these matters to our at tention, and to say that the Coosaw' Mining company are ready and will be glad to enter into such an arrangement, by which, pending this litigation and without prejudice to the rights of any party, they can continue their operations, under the proper su pervision and direction of the Board of Phosphate commissioners. I am yours very truly, Rto;.::r ADGER, Chief Mfanager of the Coosaw Mlining Copay. TiE i'llosPHIATE: CoDtISSION DIE CLiNEs THE OFFER. COLt-.IA, S. C., MIarch 16, 1591.

R.Whi.tte, Cjairmati of the Board of '-unty Commnissinrs and( vice presi. lent of the Confederate Survivors' As oeittio, died to-night after a long ill ness. He was born in 183t and served through the war with the Twentty-seV ?nth South Carolina Volunteers. He was prominent in politics and was ma1eddthe D)emocratic war-horse of the Enne-h Ward. The avengri- prei--el into the yard o the white prisoners. The door of the iirst ce-11 was tlpeu and a group of trenb li:ig prisonenrs stood inside. They were not the mel wanted and the crowd very (tuickly, though with re inarkable coolness, burst into the yard. Peering through the bars of the con denined cell was a terror-stricken face which sonic one mistook for ScaIledi. A voliev was tired at the man and he dro1)pp-d, but none of the shots struck liimii, and it wa:s -utbse(Uently found that he was not one of the assassius. The iniates of the jail were ready to direct the way to where the Italians, were. "Go to the 1eiale delertment," soie oie yelled, and thither the men with their Vinchesters ran. But the door was locked. In a iioieit a key was got, then the leader called for sonme one who knew the right men and a volunteer re:spon ded: the door was thrown open, the gailery was deserted, but an old woman, speaking as fast as she could, said the inll were up-stairs. A party of seven or eight quickly ascended the stairs and as they reached the !ading the assas sins fled down at the other end. A half dozen followed them. tcarcely a word was spoken. it was time for action. \Wlien the pursued and their pursuer. re-ibed the stone courtyard the forrme darted towards the Orleans side of the gallery andl crouched down beside the cells. Their faces blanched, and being unarmed they were absolutely defence less. In fear and trembling they scre amied for mercy, but the avengers were merelless. 1;aug! bang! bang! rang out the re ports of the murderous weapous, and a deadly rain of bullets poured into the crouching figures. Gerachi, the closest man, was struck in the back of the head and his body pitched forward and lay immovable on the pavement, Rtomero fell to his knees with his face l in his hands, and in that position wa: shot to death. Monastro and James Caruso fell together under the fire of a half dozen gunms, leaden pellets entering their bodies and heads and the hlood gushing from the wounds. The bloody executioners did their work well, and beneath the continuing fire Conete2 t and Trehine, two of the men who had not been tried, but who were charged jointly with the other accused, fell to gether. Their bodies were literally riddled with buckshot and they were stone dead almost before the fusilade was over. When a group of the assassins wan I discovered on the gallery, Machecca Scatedi, and an old man named Mar chesi, separated from the other six and ran upstairs. Thither a half dozen men foilowed, and as the terror-stricken assassins ran into the cells th,y were - slain. Jo Machecca, who was charged witl being the arch conspirator, was a short I fat man, and was summarily dealt with - He had his back turned when the shot I struck him immediately behind the eat and his death was instantaneous. There was no blood from the wound, - andiwhen his body was found the ear r was swollen so as to hide the wound - which the coroner had difficulty in lo eating. Scaifedi, one of the most villanous of f the assassins dropped like a log whet f the bullet hit him in the eye. Old man Marchesi was the only one, who wa., I not killed outright. He was struck or t the top of the head and though he was mortally woutded he lingered al] - the evening. Polltez, the crazy man I was locked up in a cell upstairs. The I doors were flung open and one of the avengers, taking aim, shot him through the body. Ilagnetto was caught in the first rusi: up the stairs and the first volley of bullets pierced his brain. He was pullec out by a number of stalwart menC through the tmaiu entrance to the pri son, and from the limb of a tree hih body was suspended, although life was already gone. Just as soon as the bloody work was d one, Parkerson addressed the crowd and asked them to disperse. This they consented to do with a ringing shout, but first they iatie a rush forParkerr on and lifted hiim bodily, supported him. Ion their shoulders while they muarched up the street. The avengers came back ill a body tc the C!ay statue and then departed. An immense crowvd rushed from all direc tions to the neigh borhood of thbe tragedy while the streets in front of the news. paper ollices were blocked with people anxious to see the latest bulletins. O'Malley, the detective, who would have shared thbe samie fate of the assas Isins if lie had been caught, has dis appeard and is not expected to return, and the memnbers of the jury are in hiding. The I tuilian consul declined to say to Inigilt what action, if any, he will take. The prisonl was surrotunded uuntil dark~ with a motley multitude, but the policE Ifound no dhitliculty in miaintaiming ood order. The bodies of somie of the lain were remioved this evening. The Stock Exchange met to-day and discussed the action of Foremxani Selig man, of the Hen nessey jury. As a re sult of the discussion, Seligman was expelled. THE ITALIAN GOvERaN3ENT MoVING. RoMiE, March 15.--News from the United States of the lynch ing of eleven Italians in New Orleans has created.a deep) implression here. TIhe press is loud ini protest against theNew Or leans authrities for not having pro tected the prisoners, and the general tenor is to make it an international ques ion of grave import. It is stated that the governmnent has already sent an address to Wasbington deandinig all of the facts of the case. TIHlE FEDERAL G,VERN31ENT'S AC TION. \AVm;INGTON, March 15.--Secretary Blane sent the following telegram to night to G3overno)r Nicholls, at New Or leas : TIlE DEI'ARtT3ENT oF' STATE, March 15, 1591. His Excellency, Francis Tr. Nicholls, Governor of Louisiaina, New Orleans: It has been represented to the President by the minister of Italy ac credited to this Governmient, that amoig the victims of the deplorable mlassacre which took p)lace in the city of New Orleans yesterday were three or more of the subjects of the King of Our treaty with that friendly Gov erinent (which under the Constitu ion is the suprei.me iaw of the land) guarntees to Italian subjects donn11 ciled in the United States "the most coistat protectionl andI security for teir persons and( property,'' making them amneiab'e on the same ba-s as our own citizens to the laws of the United States, and of the sev-eral States, n the quiet and orderly administration of the law' The Pr-esident deeply regrets that citizens of New Orieans should have so disparaged tile purity and adequacy of their own judicial tribunals as to trans fer to the passionate judgement of a miob a questiou that should have been dj udged d ispassioniately,and by settle menlt of law. The Glovernmlent of the lited States must give to the stject of friendly Powers thlat securi which it demands for our own citizens wie temporarily tunder foreign juris It is the hope of the i'residetnt that on will co-operate with him in main taiin iig the obligationis of the Lnited tates toward Italian subjects who may be within the perils of the present excItemet, that further bloodshed and volence may be prevented, and that all offenders against liv may be promitly brought to justice.

The chief of police was slain on Oe tober 1-, and that very night evidenet began to accumulate showing that hi death had been deliberately plaunec by a secret tribunal au-l carried oul bold!v and succe-sfully by to-ls of tht conspirators. The trial lasted twenty tive days, and, though the evidenet seemed conclusive, the jury, currentil charged with having been tamperec with, failed to convict. Last night body of cool headed meu-lawyers doctors, merchants and political leid ers, all persons of influence and socia standing-quietly met and decide( that some action must be taken ant the people's justice, swift and sure, vis ited upon those whom the jury ha< neglected to punish. This moruiu, a call for a mass meeting at the Clai monument, on Canal street, appeare( in the papers, which editorially depre cated violence. The significant closinr sentence of the call was: "Cone pre pared for -ction." Down in a large room on Bienvill and Royal streets there was an arsena which had been provided by a body o citizens. The call was answered b, the populace. At 1 o'clock there wa a crowd of several thousand auxiou people congregated around the Cla: statue. They hardly knew what wa going to happen, but they seemed read: to go any length, and while there were of course, many of the lower element ii the throng, the large proportion wer leading people of the town. There were three addresses, shor and pithy and business-like, and th assemblage not unwillingly was sool keyed up to a high pitch of demon stration in denunciation of the assas sins. Each of the speakers said there ha< been a great mass meeting months be fore which met quietly and disperse< peacefully so that the law might tak its course. The law had failed. Th time to act had comue. W. S. Parkei son, the leader is a prominent lawye here, president of the Southern Ath lectic Club and the man who led th vigorous city reform move three year ago. Walter D. Deneger another c the speakers, is one of the leaders a the New Orleans Bar; John C. Wick liffe, also a prominent attorney, ant James ). Houston, one of the forenlos men of the State, also spoke. After denouncing Detective O'Mat ley, who is supposed to have tampere ith the jury, the speakers announce( that they would lead the way to th parish prison. Wickliffe concludi with these words: "Shall the execra ble Mafia be allowed to flourish in thi city ? Shall the Mafia be allowed t< own our citizens on the public street by the foul nmeans of assassmnation Shall the Mafia be allowed to brib jurors to let murderers go scot free .?' By this time the crowd had swelle< to three thousand or more, and befor, ay one could reali:'e what happenet e reat throng, gaining recruits a eevry step, was tramping down th streets to the neighborhood of the pris on, stoping only once, and that was a the arsenal, wvhere double-barrele< shotguns, Winchester rifles and pistol were handed out to respoisible and re spoetable citizens in the party. The starting of the crowd had elec tric efect on the city. Soon the street were live with people running fron all directions and joining the mail body, which moved sullenly dowi Rampart street to the jail, near Cong square. Doors and wvindows wer' thrown open, and men, women an< chldren crowded on the galleries t< eenourage those who were taking par and to witness the scenes. When the maiu crowd from Cana steeet reached the prison there ha( already collected there a dense thronga all eager to take a hand in whateve might happen. When the vanguar( of armed citizens reached the prison which is many squares from Cana street, that grim old building was sur rounded on all sides.

The Italian.consu an Attorney General Rogers joined ni the ursuit, "but his L ouor does not reach his otfice till nooin, and he was not to be found at any of his regula! haunts.
