A huin.icanc is predicted soon for "Washington. New Orleans hns h^on healthier this year than ever before. A young and beautiful wife in New Jersey shot her self after a quarrel with her husband last week. A. kind friend offers to give $50 000 hail for Guittcau "just to get his hands on him.'' There is every probability, if G"r flcld dies, of a permanent deadlock in the United States Senate. Some say that Mahoneism isroine* to triumph in Vinrinb. in fh<* coming election. Can it be possible? President Garfleld was "horn in the ?wilderness of Cnyahcgn'Countv, Ohio | in a small log house, on the 19th oj ? Nov. 1831. Tlie Georgia Legislature has pn?? ed a bili tnxinn liquor dealers $25 each for the support of public schools. ' A colored man named James "Ran dall was thrown from the track near Bummerville on Monday and died in a few hours. A colored man namer1 Charles Nie bison was run over and killed wh'le trying to board a train near Block Stock on Monday by catching at the railings. A colored man in Ofrlethorpe coun ty Georgia paid $32,000 a few days ago Ibra farm. Alas for the poor colored mail of Democratic Georgia. His rights seem to be in d?ngen In last Thursday's election on the fence question in Barn well Township 369 votes were cast; 317 against it. 51 in favor of a change, and one blank The Abbeville Medium says; "There are three things an editor in this State must not do?attack Hampton, speak uncivilly of drnm iners, or tell the ttuth about farm ing." The farmers have gone for the Ab beville Med rum for saying that an av era go crop will be made.

Jefferson Davis has written a letter to (ho News tt Courier defend ing himself:again?t the charge of er r?r in his history of the war, brought against him by Governor Hagood whoso exploits did not receive prop er mention. Tile Anderson Intelligencer berates Senator Hampton for writing his let ter to Collector Rhautn in condemna tion of t he "moonshiners." It says thai, the letter contains no word of sympathy for the unfortunate and op pressed people of the "moonshine" region, but caters to Northern senti ment. Porti.>ns of the press of the State arc down upon horse racing at the State Fair. We are glad to see, this. Horse racing is both cruel and ininior al, and should not be a part of the amusements at the State Fair. It is 11n) heartless, upon the animals, and the betting connected with it is ex tremely injurious in its tendency. Let it he- dispensed with. Capitol ilill is in a state of i xcite mcnt over the discovery on a turd ay of a large bomb oh the road leading to the jail It was found beside ? fence that skirts the road by several boys. A reporter called at the house last night and was shown the deadly missile. It is an ordinary rille shell, about four and a half inches long und two inches thick and weighs a bout eighteen pounds. Upon the end is a brass cap. In thejudgment of a machinist, who is also a veteran of the war, the bomb is one or the most dangerous kin*', and would if thrown down, easily explode. It is the opinion of police officials that the shell was placed whore it was found by some persons who designed to throw it under the carriage or prison van that contained Guiteau when he was removed from the jail to the court to bo arraigned. A bomb of so largo, a size, if it was exploded, would blow.the police van, horses, driver and all into atoms. The police will endeavor to (hid the persons who were engaged in the plot, but at the present there is not the slightest clue |o their h. utity. Till' ORANGEIlLTt?

His stomach ceased to retain nour ishment, and symptoms of lockjaw were observable. Yesterday, the dis patches were slightly more 1$ vorable, but while the attending physicians give encouragement publicly, it is stated by a physician of "New York, who has been in consultation with them, that the}* privately entertain no hope of t he liu al recovery of their pa tient. Too Hi lue. 'fho most extravagant ideas seem to p'cvail as to the consequences to the tonn try ol the succession of Arthur to the Presidency in ease of the death of Gnrtield. $o one wishes more earn estly than we do for the recovery of the President. (.-Jod grant that he may live to carry out the noble policy that he has inaugurated, and bring about harmony and good feeling between the sections of this great country. But if it is the will of Providence that Arthur should succeed to the Presidential chair, we anticipate no extraordinary disruption of govern mental polity. A m>re strict an d stalwart part}' policy may be ado pl ed, which we sincerely deplore, es p ee tally in view of the benign influence of the Gartield administration; but ?the death of no one man can'a licet the destiny of free America. Weough', to be free if we are not, alul, if the lamp of liberty goes out on this con tinent, it is the fault of the .people. For the millions in our land to be af fraid of one man, is foolish and cow ardly. Such fears may be entertain ed iu a monarchical government., but not iu a country where the people rule. We would be sorry to think that the United States bad -corns lb this. Tlic Municipal Klecilon. Okangeuuuo, S. C, Aug. 22ud 18S1. Edi'or Onmjcburg Tims* : Iu your is6ue of last week, you published a communication signed "Many 'Tax Payers. It was a matter of surprise to many, that you, as Edi tor anil Proprietoi of so good and valued a i aper, should have allowed a sentiment laden with so much evil, to have light through your columns. What do "Many Tax Payers" wish? Do they intend to array the rich against the poor? Then, vice versa, we have communism in our midst. What does it sny to our young men? Go to the polls on election clays, bare your breast to the storm as in the days of yore, but remember you can not hold any otllce of honor and trust, because you are poor. Joiu our Military and Fire Companies, and protect our property, but you cnuuot bold ollice, because you own no Real Estate. Shame upon such ingrati tude to the defenders of your coun try in time of war aud your homes in time of peace, If only Real Estate owners are in future to boldoffices in our Town Council, why not have it understood that only Real Estate owners can vote, (which by the way would entitle the ladies to vote as the most of the Real Estate is owned by them)? You deprive the poor of the right to hohl otllce, which is in oppo sition to the spirit of the Constitu I tion of the United States, and of the State of South Carolina? Why tlo ".Many Tax Payers'' slop here? Why hot go on and slop them \oting also, but thank Heaven, this opinion is held . ut by a tew fanatics or fools? "Many Tax Pavers" would haveyou to thi ck that the expenses, taxes tfee.*; would be lighter by having Real Es tate owners in Council. (This is a slander on the 'ax???i? ers of the town. ! hi as the wri er is only one person ah?i indite a mistake tit sigmug it for many, 1 wilt p.i&s that byji Tlie majority of the present Council are nxj i ytis; \\ 11> wiis the lalt of tiixa t on not made lower? Because they saw that with the. growth and im proyemeilts of the town, it could no. be made less. Even one of any thought, will see that it requires from 4 too mills for current expenses and improvements. Suppose you elect a Board of R-id Estate owners, and they put the tax on Real Estate to 2.J or 11 mills, there will be a delllcieu cy. How \ ill it be inet.? By increas iug license ou liquor, merchandise* trades and professions; by decreas ing labor on streets; by reduction of the Police Force; by withdrawing all appropriations from the Fire De part incut, thus opening the doors for robberics, fires Are, and every specie of crime. Let every mau, young and old, white and colored, go to the Polla ou the day of the municipal election and cast their vote iu opposition to any such high handed injustice, and buiy the idea of property qualifies tion so deep, that it will never be res urrected again iu our community. 1 W.
