[Special to the News and Courier.] SUMMERVILLE, January 2.-An in- ! dignation mass meeting of thc citizens ; of St. James Parish, and of St. George's : and St Puafs Parishes, Colleton ? county, was held here to-day for the : purpose of effecting an organized and j permanent opposition to the registra- j tion and stock laws. It was called at j the instance of Senator Fishburac, of ; Colleton. Between seven and eight j hundred citizens of the above parishes ; responded to the call. Dr. Robert j Uder ton, of Summerville, being called : to the chair, stated the object of the ? meeting and introduced thc Senator. Mr. Fishurne reviewed and sharply : criticised the action of the Legislature, denounce? the course of Senate, and re? nounced his allegiance to thc State i Democratic party. ; Other speakers followed in the same ; strain. A series of resolutions propos- i ing the secession of the ruecting from j thc principles of the Democratic party was offered by Mr. E. J. Limebouse, but rainiest unanimously rejected. Thc platform of the new departure was read and rejected section by section.

Death of Leroy M.. wilson, The following, taken from the Balti? more Neic.% of December .?>-si, will be sad news to many of our readers who ; knew Mr. Wilson, as a burin ess man. The funeral of Leroy M. Wilson took place at 10 o'clock this morning from his residence, No. 052 Lexington street. His sudden death on Wednes? day evening at a Christmas festival .whilst distribu'ing thc articles to the children fren? the Christmas-tree caused : a peculiar sadness among a large circle of friends. The obsequies were conducted by Rev. J. A. Rcgestcr, pastor of the . Central M. E. Church South, assisted by Rev. Jno. A. Kern, of Alexandria. Among those who attended the services were the managers and teachers of the Sunday school attached to thc Central M. E. Church South, Edmoudsou ave. and Strieker street, and a a umber of clergy? men. Rev. Dr. Regester in the course of hts remarks said that the deceased had ! been cut down without a moment's : ! warning, while he was laboring in tho : cause of religion. His death came as i a terrible warning, and thc cause of j the blow was not apparent, but it was i doubtless given in all wisdom, lie : was a mau to bo admired for his fresh - j ness of feeling, and the genuine sympa? thy of his heart, which had never even ; bogan to grow old. He was refined ; and polished iu manner, and his fbnu ? ness for children made him invaluable ; as a Sunday school superintendent. His love for thc cunrch was also very I great and he spared neither time, labor I nor means to manifest his devotion, j The floral tributes were very ciega ut j ane appropriate, particularly a harp aud ; a lyre, presented by the scholars of thc j Central M. E. Sunday school. After ! the services the remains wore conveyed j to Loudon Park cemetary for ioterment. j The politicians of our town succeeded } in turning thc celebration of Emancipa ! tion into a political meeting on Satar ! day, as will bc seen from the programme. ; The speakers of the occasion were very j earnest in their efforts to convince their ; colored fidends of tho paramount impor ! tance of organizing a new party. The ! occasion of the necessity seems to be the ! passage of the Stock Law, which they ! pretend to regard the acme of oppres ; sion Of course it could not be expeet I ed that the opponents of the-Democratic i party would do otherwise than to repre ? sent in the most unfavorable light any : measure our Legislature might adopt, j and to widen and intensify any dissatis I faction which such a measure might ! cause Just at this time a rare chance i is offered to Republicans and Independ? ents, for some discontent is really appa ' rent. We 533-, a rare chance, because I just now a large proportion of favor can j bc won with a very small outlay of ! brains. Where it is necessary to show : that the principles of a party are erro? neous, or thc ultimate eifects of a par? ticular administration will be disastrous to social and commercial prosperity, if generally requires some observation and thought; but to convince an ignorant man that his rights are invaded, or that his taxes are too high is very easy, and ordinarily, under any government, has only to bc mentioned to he believed. To convince a poor man that his poverty deponds upon an unequal arrangement of the statutes, or that his man was not elected because of fraud in the election, is the easiest way to excite revolution. . if the greatest sin of the Democratic party has been the passage of the Stock Law, it has been very fortunate in its clear perception of duty. This law is merely a decision with regard io the ownership of the grass whick grow? upon an individual's land. Dees it bo? long to thc one who holds tho title or to the public? Thc Legislature has de? cided that it is the property of the for- j mer, and it thereby restores to the land- ! holder that right which custom has ! heretofore invaded, while it deprives no ! one of a single right save that of legally j appropriating to one's self the property j of another. We do not say that thc ! law is a popular one, on tho contrary it j may provo embarrassing, but its justice ; can be questioned by no- fair-miuded j man. i The Sumter correspondent, of thc Sews und [ Courier, under date of January 2. writes: j "There is great unrest here among the ne- j groes, and at least five hundred families are j preparing to leave the county in the early i spring. The farming interests are greatly ; imperiled. The complaint is : High rents. ! High taxes, the Stock and Election laws:" We must say that this does not ex- j press the true condition of things here. ! We have inquired of residents both 1 white and colored, in every portion of: the County, and have failed to find a j single man who had heard of this j proposed exodus except from the above j source. The farming iuterests are not j endangered and the dissatisfaction oe- j casioacd by tho Stoek Law is not so j general as to occasion a thought of omi- ? gration on thc part of the colored popu- j lotion.

A STATEMENT. The Unusual Experience cf a Prominent Han Made Public. -o The following article from t?io Demo?ralcnd Chronicle, of Rochester, X. Y., is of so strik? ing a nature, arni emanates from so reliable a sourer, that it is herewith re-published entire. Tn addition io the mi nable matter it contains, it will bc found exceedingly interesting. To (fa; Editor nf thc Democrat and Chronicle;: SIR:-My motives for the publication of thc moj^unns?nTsiaiemeirts which foilo'v are, first, gratitude for the fact thal I have, been saved from a most horrible death, and. secondly, a desire to warn all who read this statement against some of the most deceptive influences by which they have ever been surrounded, it is a fact that to-day thousands of people are within a foot of the grave and they do not know it. To tell how I was caught away from just this position aud to -vam others j against nearing it; mc my objects in thia : comm unirai ion. On the first day of June ISSI, I lay at my j residence in this city surrounded by my friends j and waiftfpg for death. Heaven only knows j the agony 1 then end ti red, for words cnn nev- j er describe it. And yet, if a few years previ- j ons, any one had told me that I was to he ] j brought so low. and liv so terrible a disease, i ? should have seo Qed at the idea. I had al- ; i ways been uncommonly strong and healthy, j I had weighed over 200 pounds and hardly i i knew, in my own experience, what pain or ' ; sickness were. Very many people who will ; I read this statement realize at times that they j are unusually tired and cannot account for it. I They feel dui! and indefinite pains in various ; ; parts of the body and do not understand it. j : Ur they are exceedingly hungry one day and ; entirely without appetite the next. This was ' just the way [ felt when the relentless malady j which had fastened itsebf upon me first br-gan. j Still I thought it was nothing : that probably ! I had taken a cold which would soon pass ! away. Shortly after this I noticed a dull, j and at times neuralgic, pain ia ray bead, lint i as it would come one day and be gone the ; next. I paid but lillie attention to it. How-; ever my stomach was Out of order and ray ' food often failed to digest, causing nt times great inconvenience. Yet I had no idea, even ns a physician, that these things meant any? thing serious or that a monstrous disease was becoming fixed upon mc. Candidly, f thought | I was suffering from Malaria and se doctored j myself accordingly. Hut I got no heller. 1 j next noticed a peculiar color and odor about. ? the fluids 1 was passing-also that there were j large quantities one day and very Mule tho, next, and that a persistent froth and scum ap- ; pea red upon the surface, and a sediment set- ! tied at the bottom. And yet I did not real- j ize my danger, for. indeed, seeing these syrup- ; toms continually. 1 finally became accustomed i to then:, and my suspicion was wholly dis- .' armed by the fact that 1 had no pain tn the j affected organs or in their vicinity. Why I: should have been so blind I cannot under- I Stand. There is a terrible future for all physical: neglect, and i m pend in rr danger usually brings ; a person to his senses even though it may be too late. I realized, at last, my critical con? dition and aroused myself to overe?me it. : And. Oh ! how hard i tried 1 ? consulted the j best medical skill itv the land. I visited all! tito -prominent mineral springs in America, : and traveled from Maine to California. .Still ' I grew worse. No two physicians agreed as to my malady. One said I was troubled with ! spinal irritation; another, nervous .pros tra--, tion ; another, malaria ; another, dyspepsia ; ! another, heart disease: another, generaldebil- ! itv : another, congestion of the base of the1 brain ; and so on through a long Hst of com- i mon diseases, the symptoms of ail of which I S really had. In this way several years passed. ; during all of which tinte I was steadily grow- j ing worse. My condition Lad really become ; pitiable. Thc slight symptoms I at first expc- : rl? ?....it wore* dev-eis/jwtd into terrible ami Ci>:t sia-r ??orders-thc lillie iw.igs of pain had : grov.n to oaks of agony; My weight had j been reduced from 207 lo 130 pounds. My : life was a torture to myself and friends. ? ! could retain no food upon my stomach, and ; lived wholly by injections. I was a living mass of pain. My pulse was uncontrollable. Tn my agony I frequently fell upon the Sour, convulsively clutched the carpet, and prayed ; for death. Morphine had little or no effect in [ deadening the pain. For six days and nights j I had the dentil-premonitory hiccough; con- ; Stantly. My urine was filled with tube casts i and albumen. I was struggling with bright's j Disease of the Kidneys in its hist stages. While suffering thus I received a call from ; my pastor, the 'lev. Dr. Foote, rector of St. : Paul's Church of this city. I fcfl that it was j our fist interview, but in the coarse of con- ; cessation be mentioned a remedy of which I ; had heard much but had cover used. Dr. j Foote detailed to me the many cures which j had come oncer his observation, by means, of : this remedy, and urged me to try it. As a ; practicing physician and a graduate of the j schools, I cherished the prejudice both nain- j ral and common with ali regular practitioners, j and derided the idea of any medicine outside \ the regular channels being the least beneficial, j So solicitous, however, was Dr, Foote, thal j I finally promised I would waive my ! prejudice and irv the remedy he so highly i recommended. I began its use on the first ! day cf June and took it according to ? directions. At first it sickened me; bul j tiiis 1 thought a good sign for one in my de- j bilitated condition; f continued to take il : ! the sickening sensation departed and I was; a*nlc to retain food upon my stomach. In a ; few days I noticed a decided change for the ! better as also did my wife and friends. My ; hiccoughs ceased and I experienced less pain ; than formerly. I was so rejoiced at this j improved condition that, upon what I liad j believed but a few days before was my ! dying bed, I vowed, in the presence cf my j family and friends, should I recover I would . both publicly and privately tu;;kc known tids j remedy for the good of human!ly, wherever j and whenever i had an opportunity. I a?-o i determined that I would give a course of I lectures iu the Corinthian Academy of Music j of this city, slating in fal! the symptoms and I almost hopelessness of my disease and the j remarkable means by which I have boen ! saved. My improvement was constant from : that time, and ia less than turee montos 1 ; had gained 2G pounds in fiesii, became Cn- j ti rely free from pain and I believe- I o we my , life and present condition wholly to Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver Cure, the remedy j which 1 used. Since my recovery I have thoroughly re : investigated the subject of kidney dif?ieul- ; ties and Bright's disease, and the truths de- j veloped are asl bunding; 1 therefore state. : deliberately, and as a physician, that I be? lieve* }/t>>re titan one half, thc dcttlh* /chi h occur in America are caused ?'?j i?rigLC* Distase of the : Kid)?*/.?. This may sound like n rash state? ment bat I am prepared io fully verify ii. i Bright's Disease has no distinctive symptoms : of its own. (indeed it often develops without any pain whatever tn thc kidneys or their ; vicinity.) but has the symptoms of nearly j every other known complaint. lJubdreds of; people ?lie daily whose bu ri?
