WA1HA1LA, s. c., September 16.-At an ear
ly hour yesterday morning people on borse-
back, in wagons, in buggies, and a-foot, and
comprising white and black, old and young,
men and women, came thronging into town to
hear the speaking and to hurrah for Seymour
and Blair. On the arrival Of an extra train
from GreenvilIe, the procession was formed in
front Of Bieman's Democratic Hotel. The
speakers came first, seated in carriage drawn
by four horses. Then came the different
clubs, twelve in number, and passed through
town to the upper end, where stand and
seats had been prepared. AS the pro cesslon
passed the public square salutes were hred /;
but not by cannon, as no such thing exists
in this county, unless it be in the possession
of the Union League. In turning the corner
near the speakers stand, the procession had
to pass under an arch of evergreens and roses,
in which were suspended the pictures of Sey-
mour and Blair, and here loud and prolonged
cheers ran elong the lines for our Candidates
The speakers we're then conducted to the
stand, where they, and the presidents OF + t! the
seats. MIR. r. s. Porcher, President OF the
Central Club, introduced in few brief words

MajorsE. G. Mcclure, the candidate " cleo
tor OF the Fourth Congressional District, spoke
next, and explained the duty OF an elector
and the duty Of the people in voting for one.
He appealed to the ladies to use their infu-
ence in the next election. They all had o

1t was latein the evening before the speaking
was over, when some returned to their homes
and 8 great many stayed in town for the La

crowded to overfowing and proved satisfactory
to all present. Those who found no pleasure
at the ball collected at the hotel, and made
loud calls for Colonel r. s. Duryea, of Charles

Mr.. Robert Mckay, Of Greervile, was next
called, and for some time kept the crowd IN
roar Of laughter with anecdotes and their ap-
pGcation. One Of his stories was this Two
negroes had caught possum and concluded
to have big supper; so Sambo said he would
cook the possum and Cufee took nap. When
the possum was cooked, Sambo, tempted by
the savory odor, could not resist, and gobbled
the whole. Afterwards, he said to himself
81 am in deuce Of fix; what shall I do
Cuffee will wake up and then there will be O
row." So SGmbo took some of the fat and
creased Cuffee's mouth and fingers while he
was asleep, and then quietly lay down and
the possum all gone. So he woke up Sambo and
asked: "Where's the possump" ''Possum," says
Sambo, "didn't you help eat it up ?" ''No," re.
plies Cufee. "Jis' look at your mouth and
fingers, rejoins Sambo, "ain't they all greasy
yet 2" "Well, says Cuffae, staring at his tin-
gers, 'I suppose did eat it, but I'm devihsh
hungry yet" This, said Mr.. Mckay, went to
show how easily the colored people could be
made to believe anything. IF they would not
listen to good advice. they must go on until
they found everything eaten up, and then they
would be devilish hungry still.
Colonel Duffy Calhoun also spoke and was
cheered on retiring. a colored man also
spoke. When he had got through, the negroes
all said: 'D-n the Union Lea rue hurrah for
Seymour and Blair" The colored Democratic
Clubs afterwards kept marching up and down
the street, shouting "Hurrah for Seymour and
Blair !" Sky-rockets were thrown up and
there was much enthusiasm. Everything
passed off in an orderly manner and there was
no disturbance whatever. Depend upon 1t,
Oconee will give good account Of herself in
November. She has done well before this; but
in rolling up q majority for Seymour and Blair
she will do even better. 4.

a negro courier was dispatched to Camilla
to inform the citizens what was going on. A
deputation Of three prominent citizens met the

when the Governors proclamation disarming
and forbidding armed organizations was read.
The mob paid no attention, and determined to
march on the town and kill such as
they chose On two occaeioas deputations
demonstrated, entreating the negroes to
come in without arms, and they should not
be molested. All efforts were truitless
to dissuade the negroes, and the mob marched
into the to IN with banners flying and drums
beating, numbering nearly four hundred, num-
bers having joined on the route. The mob
halted and clamored for the blood OF man
named Johns, in company with. DR.. Trouty,
who presented bimself, when hundred guns
were levelled at him and his companion. The
former, being intoxicated, fred, and the riot
commenced, the mob firing at every one
they could see. The citizens, white and
colored, rallied, gathering about fifty

tackled and driven back, and forced to make
hasty retreat, which soon changed into panic
The negroes were pursued five miles, losing
thirty-five killed and many wounded, the total
loss as far as ascertained being from seventy
five to one hundred in killed and wounded.
The colored citizens Of the town are reported
to have rallied promptly with the whites in
defeating the mob. The stores and ammuni-
ton of the latter were captured, amounting to
three weeks provisions and many boxes Of
arms. At last accounts Camilla was quiet.
