Southern War Claims.
The attack of Mr. Bragg'of NYis
cousin, a Northern Democrat, up mi
Southern Wnr tMaims, and Southern
Democrats for countenancing them
tens exceedingly ill-timed and seven ,
hut we are thoroughly convince*!
that the whole matter is a wicked
farce, and that the hook of claims
ought to be closed forever.
This war claim bill was a Re pub'i
ean electioneering schema to gain
recruits to the party from the South,
and there ore few, if any, install' s
in which its application ought to ho
countenanced by Southern Demo
crats.
We have a contempt for the'man
bom nnd raised in the South who sets
up a claim before Congress for remit
iteration for war damages on the
tec re of loyalty, und to encourage
tuch [ applications is_ to encourage
iiimp and perjury.
There may have been some cases
of real loyalty, but they are beyond
the reach of our imagination. At
any rate the bill on the whole is a
premium for dishonesty, an engine of
injustice, an impediment to virtue,
and should be promptly ami forever
blotted out from the Statute hooka of
the nation.
The Tellurs in.Charleston.
The Teller 'Investigating Senato
rial Committee has been at work for
some time in Charleston. They have
got a^good deal that they want in the
shape of testimony to suit the Blaiuc
party, hut, besides'this, they have got
also much that they don't want.
In the firstJew dayskthe Republi
can testimony of Democratic fraud
flowed,, freely tot_the delight of the
Republican Senators, but.'just J now
the hoot is getting on the other leg.
It is shown by evidence that the
negroes in Williamsburg attempted to
steal a ballot box nod murder the
managers; that colored preachers
have been proscribed for voting the
Democratic ticket; that colored Dem
ocrats have been beaten and wounded
in Richland; and Mr. Perry the
printer, testifies that he printed
10,000.tissue tickets for Mackey.
All of this testimony will go very
far to blur and destroy the symmetry
and cflecf of the campaign document
which Bluiue is taking so much
trouble to get up.
E. A. Wclster and Sandy Keitt
ventilated themselves.
Webster's story was highly color
ed and doubtless . itisfnctory to him
self mid the Republicans on the Com
mittee. Among other things ho said
the Democrats made propositions to
drop the cases against the Republi
cans if the Republicans would drop
theirs against them. We doiit know
what Democrats he means, but if he
means " the Democratic leaders made
such.!propositions, wo are informed
that the facts are exactly the reverse.
The Republicans made the propoii -
lions, to the Democrats.
Webster will dotihtl ess retain the
post eflice.
The ^desperado Sandy Keitt un
folded a tale ol O .ngeburg horrors,
lie said ho was afraid to come back
to Oraiigcburg for fear Dr. Sal ley's
sens might kill him Senator Kan
dolph however suggested that
probably his aversion to come back
to Oiangcburg was in consequence of
having obtained money there under
false pretenses.
Sandy does not seem to have been
well trained. \\ e would advise E.
W. M. M( to school him more before
he brings him in Court, lie stepped
too far ..ml rendered what might
have been n good thing' for his side
ridiculous.
Mr. James Cannon testified that
he knew of many colored men who
had voted tissue tickets in Orange
bur >\
lienj. By na testified that he knew
of colored men who had been severely
beaten for giving out red shirts.
That ho and other col ore 1 tuen sp > Uc
ut the Democratic jubilee soveral
nights alter the election, and that
many colored men participated in it.
That he has been in Oraugeburg at
four elections, and that ho never
knew of a colored man being hurt on
account of his politics.
The Committee has suddenly
closed its labors, and the members
are returning to Washington where
Mackay and Campbell will be ex
amined. This sudden departure has
cut off much of the Democratic re
butting testimony.

Mr. Cameron?I am more than

that you are no lawyer.
Mr. Uandolph?I am not a lawyer,

I For the Craiigeburg Times.]
EniSTO Fork, January 24th 187U.
Etli or Oraiijebnrj Times:
This is the latter part of January;
fanners crops arc nearly all sold; the
proceeds gone into the pockets of the
merchant and lieu-holder, and the
debts lor advances lost year not paid
yet. The must of our farmers that
depend on cotton for every thing
seem to be getting poorer every year
lor they get very little pny for their
laboi'i and when called on to serve
the County, they get less. I was at
our last Court and saw poor jurymen
eating their sohl lunch for dinner
probably the bread had been cooked
a week, and they told me they had to
sleep on a cold hard floor with only a
blanket or two without any tire, for
the reason that they bad no money to
pay for belter accomodation. I saw
one of llieiu paid off with a little
pcice of paper called a juror ticket,
and the only way that he could get
any thing fur it was to trade it to a
merchant lor goods at a high price,
and at a big discount. Now is that
the way to serve a poor jurymen. As
a writer in the True Southern says,
"What right has ihe State to call on
her citizens to perform public d ity v.
jurors, under a heavy penalty, and
pay. them uff in such Ifltpcrs." A jury
man holds the most res ponsible posi
tion of any man, and I think be
should be paid promptly, ami with
cash, to enable him to live comfor
tably while be has to at tend the Con i t.
Will the Judge, Clerk of the Court,
ami Solicitor attend, eat bard and
sleep hard, and then take cicdit
for pay. I think not. Who is to
blame 1 ask ?
