TilUUSDAY, JANUARY 27, 1881. AHE WK HL1X1) i ~ We regret very much to notice by publications iu the A' res <n/</ Kurier from different scctiotis of the slate that there is a sentiment against im migration How extended this sen timent is we are unable to say, but it corroborates exactly, as farjas it goes, what the Northern people say of us thai wo don't want strangers to come in our midst. In one of the extracts alluded to the author is positively op posed to Immigration, and asks if our own increase will not be suilicient to build up our waste places. We don't believe that this sentiment is general It is so narrow thai it must l>c limit ed to. a very small circle. Still, the apathy of those who think differently, keeps us in a comparatively stagnant stale- Can any o::c who has witness ed the election scenes in the lower tier of Counties in one .--tale serious iy say that we don't need immigra tion V Does the man who thinks that the natural increase of our race will lie suilicient to develop our resources ever realize that the colored rauo is increasing in this way faster than the whites? 11* our slate is to be de livered over to such a sentiment as this, South Carolina would be a dark place to live in in the future, and we would speedily seek a better and. safer home. Hut we cannot think thai such is the case. Immigration alone can save us. and the sooner we rea lize it the better. It is not thcimmi gratibn of laborers we want, but of laud owners, who will become one of US, and whose interest iu good gov eminent will be identified with our own. We look at this matter too much with an eye to present gain, in stead of future safety. It is the po litical question, and not the agricul tural one. which now agitates us? ami that man who is so immersed in the scramble for the almighty dollar thai lie can't see it, is blind to the best interest of our people. TIIK COLORED PEOPLE. Tho colored people present an enig ma even to Ihos? who mow '.hem i est As a inn sa, I hey are qiiici and mio tensive, and as lahoters the cannot lr.1 excelled, hi business relations they cooperate with the white people, find are kind and accommodating in their depositions. Kverv thing works smoothly until the subject of politics comes up. Then they are in direct opposition. Retwoen elections there is entire harinoiiv, but so soon as election day commences to roll around thi'discordance begins. They grow sullen and don't wish to be talked to. Their minds are made up and they will listen to no argument, except from the Radical leaders who have complete possession of their ear. When they have invc.sf men's to make or desire adv ice they go to their old inn.,; ei s. but when they go to the polls as a race they vote directly against the whites. The}* are blind infatua ted followers of the Radical party if it carries them to ruin. With a kind of political religioiM fanaticism, th y will vote for a rogue if lie is on the Republican ticket in preference to tin honest m m on the Hemocratic ticket. They don't 16 >'.. at the ticket they vole, as a lYoeaian would, tu ither knowing nor caring who is up m ii so that it is I be blue backed Republi can t icket. They don't icnlizc for a moment that it is to the interest of the South for the whites and blacks to vote together. The whites have made every advance towards them, a mi all their prollers have been rejec led. They refuse to harmonize. Re conciliation seeiiH to be farther oil how than it ever has been. All ol this is the result of the teaching ol i ||}??-? seekers t'o whom therecon cilin .ion of the races would be a death i low as it would, dep -Vi them of Ihcii iivocatibtn ?Vh'jf'itjr a Gobi r and < \ ri be .:.!.* ii by tl'.'ise did lit led pen le tve arc at w lot ? to know.

Dibble Ksqs., -'took charge of Mr. O'Connor's interest. The following of Maekav's witnesses were examined on Monday: Nestor Curry of Fogle's poll, II. D.Edwards, school teacher, near Zeigler's; K. M. Gray, school teat her, near Avers1; M. K. Wilkinson, school teacher, Kasterlin's; IS. F. Aiken, Jamison; .Johnson, tin- post master of ('<('> who was taken up and put in jail last we*k for forgery: d. G. Moore Jr., Lewisvillc; Bcnj. Moullin, Ft. Motte. The testimony was the old stereo typed story, fair elections at the polls thrown out, and repeating or excessive voting elsewhere. The examination was continued on Tuesday. Some of the more noted wit ucsses were then examined, a mong them the lucky Straker who is now luxuriating iii a fat''V'1 oral oilicc. The most notable event of this day was the opening ofthc famous miss ing or trav? Hing box, said to be that, of Bookhart's poll. The history of this box i.s rather interesting. In the fust place, after tin- election, in stead of coming to the Board of Cottii t v Canvassers in the regular way, it got into the hands of Commissioner Laihrop, who informed the Hoard thai he had it and was ready lode liver it up. Tho Board, however, did not see lit to take it in this irregular way. It therefore remained with Mr. LatItrop, who, :iscounsel for the Radical Candidates, carried it w ith him in company with these candi dates on the Railroad to Columbia to tlii' meeting of the State ('ntivn> scrs. In this city it took the rounds of the I hoarding houses and to the Slate Mouse and finally found its way hack to Orangeburg. From this circum stance it is styled the travelling box. .On Tuesday the unusual proceeding was undertaken by order of Maekey of opening this box, which, besides its peregrinations, was left, sii.ee i'. returu from Columbia, in Mr. I .at It ropsolllee, the rendezvous of Mein lire, Webster, Garlaeh el. rutmi. Maekey acted as Chairman and hath top as Canvasser, and the duo count ed ihr votes of this purported Book hart box,'n::d declared iIis election ! for tin ?ood people of t! ai conimiiui | ly. 'i heir doelnir.tion wits '21:! lie publican am! CO Democratic vote.-. Still untre singular yet, Maekoy gave directions to his clerk, after this eon t. ling, to pill ll esc voles in a package and send them to Congress with his* ccr'.il'n ate. This is certainly a hov e! prt eedure. THE WRONG NAME.

An interesting debate lias taken place in Congress on Senator Log an's bill for the pensioning of Geti. Grant. Senators Hay a rd and Hill ] take the very sensible | ositiou that the bill is objectionable on the ground of its being a special measure, aud they are opposed to special legisla tion on this subject. The Democrats favor a general bill granting pensions for life for all Ex-Presidents,under which ('rant would come in for his share, but they are not disposed to provide a special dish for him alone. A most foul and brutal outrage and murder was committed near Prosper ity S. C. last Wednesday on the per son of Miss Bessie Werts, daughter of Mr. William Werts, a beautiful and estimable young lady about twenty two years ol age. The dia bolical deed was done by two black licnds by the name of Dave Spear man and Sam Pair who have since been righteously hanged, under the operation of lynch law, to the nearest limb. The word love, in one of the Indian dialects, is chemlcadamough kenagegager. This accounts for the fact that Indians never have but one swee theart at a time. You couldn't 1 expect a man to attend to two client leadcnioughkonagegnger affairs at once. Hen. Hill says, in Congress, in Iiis speech on the Grant Pension bill, that Grant is a Republican corn r a::d not a Democratic one, and that the Republican party must take care of his funeral.
