A. Papor lor tlio Peopled OltANUEBUKG, S. (J., NOV. 12, 1880. Mr. Geo. II. Cornelson lias receiv ed the machinery for his factory ami in due tiinc.our town may hoast. of the actual cxistonco of a cotton factory within her bounds?all due to the vim nnd enterprise of one man. Foun thousand and fivo hundred dollars were taken from the safo in tho Treasurer's olllce of Barnwell on Monday night last. Entrance was made by means of a wooden key and tho robbers escaped. Detectives arc at work. It has been reported on the street'? during the present week that there were to be several arrests of managers of election and other Democrats made by the United States Marshal. As yet every thiug in quiet and no arrest have been made, nor do wo think like ly to be soon. ? 1,000 Democratic majority for the county ticket has so elated our popu lar City Clerk and Treasurer, Charlie Jones, that he iuvitcs all his friends to Van Tassel's to smile with him, and at the same lime secure big bar gains in staple and fancy groceries. Don't miss a good thing. There arc a fjw colored men who have 8lood nobly by the Democratic party through the severest trials and among these none has been truer than John Matthews, the barber. We bespeak for him the support and pat ronage of the Democratic public. He deserves it and ought to leoeive it. Poor Fellow.?lie has Water Brash, Cramp, Nausea, Pain in the Back and Limbs, Sour Stomach, Foul Breath, Heartburn, Headache and general torture. This is from indi gestion caused by a disordered liver. Regulate thatorgau, not by taking doses, but by using Dr. Flayg's Im proved Liver and Stomach Pad, and at once be restored to health. We learn from a reliable source that a colored mac named Livings ton, no kin to John 11., voted the Democratic ticket at Cedar Grove on the 2d instant and was seized by a crowd oT negro radicals and threaten ed most savagely because of his vot ing. Had it nut been for the protec tion given him by the whites present the savage crowd might have put their threat of killing in execution. It is rumored that 1). A. Strukcr has been tendered and accepted a po sition in the Custom . House at Char leston. At all events he has been absent from Oraugcburg ever since the election, which calls to triad a remark of Lee on Ilngood's day: "Watch Strukcr, he will skip the town of Orangeburg as soon as the election is declared." It is a happy riddance for Orangeburg County. Jack Minnicken, colored, who voted the Democratic ticket at the late election, was set upon aud niohhed otT the grounds of a colored Can pmeet Ing a few days ago because he assert ed his independence as a citizen by voting as he thought best for himself and country. At tho same Caoip mccting, Manny Robinson, a colored Democrat, was waited on by a com mittoe of eight Radicals ami ordered to leave the ground in two hours or be shot. Hislonly offence was voting the Democratic ticket. Ik any portion of our citizens mer itedjon the 2d instant the.well done of the Ornngeburg community for their good services, it was the Working Committee of young men under the leadership of Mr. J. S. Alhcrgotli. There is no doubt that their determi nation, bold front and prudent con duet saved our town from mob vio lance, or those shameful scones usual with large collections of negroes exci ted and agged on by designing lea ders. Their work was bravely and well done. Ouit kind friends, of the Bethlehem neighborhood in the Fork, who ex pected us to attend their Sunday School picnic on Sat urday before elec tion day, will pieaso excu.se our non appearance on that occasion. Wc were ordered by the County Chair man to address a Democratic meeting at Brnuchvillc on the same day and obeyed the order even to the disap pointment of the Sunday School. We hope, however, to meet our friends at Bethlehem on some other occosion il thoy so elect. RAplCAL Election Tactics.?Near Lawtonville, Hampton County, while two gentlemen were reluming to tkc.ii home late on Tuesday evening, some villainous Radicals tired upon them, killing Isaac Colston and his horse nstantly, and wounded the hoi sc. ol the other. Mr, Colston was a white Democrat und an humble and quiet citizen. Every elf.ut is being made to find out the guilty parlies. The Democrats are indignant at this das tardly net. In the same county I he "Black Creek" box was stolen after the ballots were counted, and strong suspicion points to some Radical nc gros. Dots.?Who will' care for Yacob now.

His Excellency, the President of the United States, has, by proclama tion*, dated at Washington November the 1st, recommended Thursday the I lie inst., as a day for National Thanksgiving Time brings its revenges. Twelve years ago Gco. Boliver usurped the ollieo to which the people had elected Mr. Joseph F. Robinson. Now the people has appointed Mr. Robinson to kick the usurper out. There is not much difference be tween a man who stands up and sees his friend overpowered and the ene my who overpowers him. Democrats who failed to vote may be unable to appreciate this, but its true. Permanent relief for dyspepsia, sour stomach, billiousness, and all diseases ol a disordered liver can he had by using Portalinc, or Tabler's Vegetable Liver Powder. Price ?Oc.

R. Ar.lloys place in the Fork, to see his wife then sick. Alter treat ing his patient, Postell, as fortune teller, revealed the past and future history of Corry for which he was paid. That night a paity of negroes consisting of Isaac Curry, Jim Simp son, Shed Simpson, Gabe Jennings and Freeman Lyons, led by a colored preacher, named lluiglcr, armed with ropes, knives and pistols, violently entered Corry Roach's house, took Postell out and, with threats of imme diate death, demanded his money, j The frightened negro, to save Iiis life delivered up all he had. After di i s iding the spoils the robbers gave him Ithree hours to leave 'die co.intry and then followed him shooting and yell ing to the ahum of Ihe entire neigh borhood. Several while citizens learning the circumstances gave the J poor fellow il'.e needed protection.

We Take It All Rack.?In our issue of October 29 wo said: "The Radical lenders arc ill a dilema. They have searched the county over for a i Democrat who will consent to belittle i himself so much sis to go on their ticket, and as yet have failed to find lone. There is no Democrat who will, of own his accord, place his name on a list of thieves. This speaks well for the unity of tho Oraugcburg Dcinoc jraey." i i the light of what happen 'cued on the 2 1 instant, wo lind that we were mistaken, and take it all back. Time :s Shout.?I'rof.

Wannnmakcr and Mr. T. 0. Albergolli, mot in the Courthouse on Tuesday last, and in the presence of a huge number of our citizens of both races and canvassed the election re turns of the different precincts. The violence acd lawlessness of the Radi cals at a majority of the precincts made it absolutely neceesary to ques tion these returns, and for this pur pose the law committee, composed of Messrs. M. I. Browning, A. C. Dib ble, W. J. DoTrovilio and T. B. Wha. ley, were in attendance to represent the Democrats and Messrs. Warren R. Marshall and Abinl Lalhrop the Radicals. Objections, upon strictly legal grounds, were made to counting the votes of tho Lewisville, Foit Motte and Fogle boxes. These ob jections were based upon the intimi dation of voters by the Radical party and the unwarranted interference with the election by so-called United States Marshals. Alter due conside ration of every point the Board de cided to reject the Lewisville, Fort Motte and Foglc boxes. Messrs. Marshall and Lalhrop entered a writ ten protest against the general pro ceedings and denied the jurisdiction of the Board in the premises. The report of the Commissioners was sent up to the State Canvassers on Wed nesday, by whom the returns will again be considered and the fluni do ci.-ion made. So far as the success ot the Democrats is concerned, that is assured. The Commissioners did their work honestly and fcarlcsssly, and merit the thanks of every well think lug citizens of the county. The ob jections to some of the boxes recount ed the most outrageous conduct on the part of a large portion of the colored people, which can only be ac counted for on the theory that such men as Boliver, Webster and Straker arc the authors of it, and, therefore, the responsible parties. How long will Orangoburg County endure such men ? The Row at Johnson's*?A corre spondent of the Columbia Registern gives the following account of the dillicully at Johnsons on election day, of which brief mention was made in our last issue: Jesse Butler, a negro, challenged the vole of another negro on account of his youthful appear ance. The young negro thereupon declined to vole. Iiis falber Antuey Miles, foo'i met Jesse Butler on the street when a quarrel ensued, in which Antuey' said, that with twenty ne groes he could charge the box and tuko posaesion of it, and immediately began to put his threats into execu tion. Bis movements upon the box were promptly opposed by the white and colored Democrats, when a regu lar melee commenced. Those negroes who were iu closest proximity to the box (among whom was Antuey Mil es), soon beat a retreat while the fir ing was being principally done by the negroes in the rear, wl o were shooting over Ihe heads of their allies at the white and colored Democrats in front; and in this manner Antuey allies lost hi i life, being shot by one of his own parly who was trying to pick oil the honest defenders of the ballot box. Others were wounded during the riot, but in the midst of such contusion it was of course im possible to tell by whose hands the shots were Ii;cd." Intimidation.?At St. Matthew's on Saturday morning last Cap;. 1>\ M. Wannamnker found the following notice on a tree at the entrance of his avenue: "To Frank Wannamakcr: If you do not declare the election in our favor you will be dead and in bell in three days." Underneath the notice was a target completely riddled with buckshot or pistol shots. If this was an attempt to intimidate the Captain .tin! Uiuko hi in declare the election in any other way than as the returns warranted, we think that the writer has discovered by this lime thai.ho woke up the wrong passenger. The Woman's Missionary Society at Providence Church will have a picnic then; on Saturday, the 27lb in j stanl. Professor Duncan will deliver an address, ami probab.y .Mis. Bish op Wight man also, besides Rev.1 Mcssis. Darby, Platt and others. The Socieiv extends a cordial invita tion to friends who feel interested to participate wt h them on this occa sion in tho celebration of their first I anniversary. Minnie Edwards, Coi responding Secret a; y. We were pleased to meet at our of fice on several occasions Mr. C. 11. Riggs, editor and proprietor of the /Vcsa, published at Bristol!, Conn., a kinsman ol our worthy fellow-Citizen, Mr. Harpin Riggs. Ho is a gcn'lc i man of culture, genial manners and I position, ami his visit to our county during the election will give him a correct idea of what Republicanism in ' ihe .South means. Mr. J. I.

No better illustration of the blind ignorance and obedience, to party be hests of the negro voters could be found than their failure to vole for the constitutione! amendment to the homestead law. This amendment was intended directly ill the ilerest of the poor borrower. The negroes failed to vote for it simply because their leaders had not put it on their tickets. DON'T'YOU F0RG?T~IT.
