CT There is considerable excitement
among the cattle sellers and BUYERS in
Chicago, Ill, in consequence of mystic
riouS disease that has recently broken
out among beef cattle in the central part
OF the state. Out of several lots shipped
cast on Monday, seven head died on the
cars between Chicago and Piltsburg.
The dealers owning them have telegraph
cd to the Union yards at Chicago, re-
questlng the agents 20 buy no more cat
tie. A general panic among the cattle
men is the consequence.

Why?
Because in so doing they will support
candidates who believe in Reputation

civil war! The young men of this coun-

The veteran printer Simeon Ide OF
Claremont read an essay at the recent
editorial convention in which he told of
a young man named Smith who was in
dentured to him for six years in 1919, to
learn the printing business. At the end
OF three years the friends of the young
man desired his release, in order that he
might he educated for the ministry. He
was released on condition that he should
be educated, and to-day, that young
man, now ri pc in years and wisdom, is
president OF Dartmouth college.

TwENTY-F1Rsr DAYS PROCEEDINGS.
SENATE.

oI4Nh
COLUMBIA, July 29.-Immediately
after the call of the roll and the con-
firmation of the journal of the pre-
ceding day, the Senate, in accord
ance with joint resolution to that
effect, repaired to the House Of Rep
resentatives, for the purpose of unit
ing with that body in ballot for
Chief Justice and two associate JUS
tees of the Supreme Court, and
after return therefrom without the
transaction OF further business, ad-
journed.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,
The bill to incorporate the Lang
ley Manufacturing Company of Edge
field was reported upon favorably by
the Committee on Interpretations,
read a second time, and ordered to
be returned to the Senate.
The same committee reported
hnck the bill to incorporate the Che
raw Hook and Ladder Company,
which had been amended, and which
was read second time and passed to
third reading.
Lee presented series of resolu
tions, which he said had been
adopted in Charleston by q meeting
of Republicans, and which he had
been requested to hand to the Chair.
They were strongly condemnatory of
the action of the delegation from that
County, in voting against the bill to
regulate municipal elections in incor-
porated towns and cities, and the
reading of them gave rise to great
excitement. "DeLarge and Others,
who were censured by the resolu-
tions, endeavored, unsuccessfully, to
gag their reading, and the criticisms
OF the course, as contained in the
paper, occasioned much laughter and
bantering amongst their cotempora-
ries and colleagues. Finally, on.
motion OF Elliott, who condemned
the resolutions as disrespectful to the.
House, because they were couched
in the interests Of party and not of
the State, they we're ordered to be
returned to the member who intro
duced them. e''>

RIoT.-We regret to see a spirit
manifested on the part of certain
negroes, to interfere with the pro-
ceedings of white men here, at their
Ward meetings of the Democratic
party. This move is evidently from
the direct instignatio of carpet-bag
incendiaries. They see that the
Democrats here are about to carry
the State, and they seek to make n
diversion by getting up a row.
"a Now, we have only to say this
thing won't do, and will not be tole-
rated. We desire peace, and will go
far to preserve it. But there is an
end ofall patience.
The Democratic party intend to
hold their meetings, without inter
ruption. And they will do it, what
ever ii costs, and they will be pre-
pared to do it. - Charleston Mercury.

ANOTHER FIRE.-About II o'clock,
on Thursday night last, the alarm of
fire again aroused our citizens, when
it was ascertained that the stable on
the jail lot was in flames. Only n
short time elapsed before the build.
ing and its contents were destroyed.
Sheriff McGukin lost quantity of
provender, but was fortunate enough
to have his horse rescued by several
freedmen, who discovered the fire.

After his admirable remarks, Col.

peated calls, closed the exercises of
the evening with some remarks sug-

in an. orderly manner adjourned.

Of which Columbia may be proud,
and we renew our thanks to all who
contributed to its success.

Il 1sastsr 10 Gov. Scott.
IA committee of the citizens OF the
| town Of Unionyille, consisting of DR..
w tC.s Bennett. r. Al. McKnight,
John Rodgers and Alick Macbeth,
freedman, have been here on o visit
TO Gov. Scott, il behalf OF law and
order. We learn that the committee
represented an outrageous state of
affairs in their District; and that in
formation received blythe Governor,
from the negroes themselves. goes to
establish the statements of the COM
mittee. 1t appears that on Satur-
day, the 25th inst, about 1,5OO ne
groes assembled on the plantation of
Mr.. George Hill, contrary to the
wishes and remonstrances of this
gentleman. This is about fourteen
miles from Union Court House.
About 800 were armed, and were or
ganized as q military body, under
leaders claiming military titles. They
were also provided with ammunition.
The most violent and inflammatory
harangues were made, and threats
against the whites were freely in
dulged in. -.
John Bates, freedman, was called
"Maior of Battalion" and read what
he claimed were isGeneral ORDERS"
from Gov. Scott. These orders in
vited the negroes to organize, and
promised arms and music for them at
an early day, and encouraged pre-
parations of military character on
the part of the negroes. This man
had visited Gov. Scott a few days
before, and he read these s'orders"
as the orders of the Governor.
This man, John Bates, went on to
say that they we're to meet in Union
village, on the following Saturday,
the 1st of August, and he formally
ordered his forces to assemble at that
time and place. as&
The committee further stated that
they had been informed and believed
that the main object was to rescue
from the Jail freedman there con.
fined for grave offence.
The whites of Union feel able to
take care of themselves; but they
desire the peace of the community;
desire the law to prevail; and hence
they submit the facts of the case for
the action of the Governor.
We do not know if Governor Scott
has taken the proper measures to put
q stop to the violence that the de-
luded negroes contemplate. But we
do know that military organizations
among the negroes are prohibited by
the laws, and that, if O collision
should occur, heavy responsibility
will rest upon Governor Scott. The
white people of Union have done
their, duty and shown their disposi-
ton to commit the subject to the
hands OF the proper authority. They
have acted wisely and promptly to
preserye-the peace.
