Der of offices are to be distributed in the
organization, and party power and infu-
ence is to be extended. This is part of
the milk in the cocoanut.
A very natural result of the Newberry
letter will be the introduction Of bill for
the speedy formation OF the militia, and
the question will thus be fairly sprung
before the Legislature. How much ar
gument the foolish document has furnish
ed in behalf of such a measure will read
lily bc perceived. -
The unfortunate part of the matter is.
that the letter is tonight being printed
for circulation at the North, and no man
will deny that it will be accepted by the
already prejudiced masses OF that section
as an evidence of the iniquity and gene
raj diabolism which prevails in this State.
1t makes no difference that the Ncwberry
delegation when questioned declared that
they knew no such individual as William
H. Martin in the district, or that the let
ter itself bears upon its face the evidence
of forgery. 1t will serve the purpose to
which it is applied, and our people will
be held responsible by many true Dem
ocrat for the reckless efferverscence Of
the anonymous joker.
Strange as it may appear, the temper
OF some of the most influential colored
men on the floor of the House-and I
will not except several of the whites-is
thoroughly conservative. They believe
as much as Democrats in qualified suf-
rage; and when the proper time comes
they will cut loose from the ultra party
who would dragoon them with whip and
spur into extreme measures, and to de-
stroy, by crazy epistles, this growing sem
timenr, now in its chysaisstage; to bully,
threaten and antagonize those who, in an
humble, quiet but certain way, are work.
ing out plan of relief for the people Of
the State is simply to increase our own
difficulties, and prevent the use OF agen-
cios which eventually will result in good.
All that is going on cannot prudently
be made public, but many wire is being
secretly laid and operated by men Of in
telisence, whose aim and endeavor is to
rid South Carolina of the present unre-
strictcd power of the carpct-bag and
Ethiopian. To threaten violence is only
TO consolidate the opposition. and render
progress in the right direction uphill
work. PERSONNEL. 4.

of organizing and arming negro militia
before the military protection is relieved,
after civil government is resumed. Well,
this is decidedly rich fully as much of
the genuine Yankee OF Pennsylvania as
we could have expected. Negro militia
You say "our government must rest upon
obedience to law" &c. But how, if you
have common sense, could you expect
''obedience to law" if there be such a
thing in our State as negro militia? We
cannot, and will not, tolerate miserable
negro militia Enforce the order, if you
will, sternly severel v but ace will not
have peace, even such peace as we now
have, no longer than these brutal, deluded
savages-the negro melish-shall have
been organized. No, never! Then you
may expect-and you doubtless hope to
see it-a collision between our people and
the negroes. We will then have no
country, no peace, no family ties to pre-
vent longer oppression by a relentless
Jacobin enemy. God witnesseth that our
people shall forever afterwards resolve to
destroy the vile despotic rulers OF our
country. You know, Scott, that you
have no right to govern, or act as Cover.
nor of our dear State. And by the bless
ings of God Almighty, you and your
party in the whole South shall be discom
fitted, despiscd, and, trust, destroyed.
The negrocs could be made to do what
is their plain duty, if there had not been
outside Yankee and inside renegade in
reference with them, under Radical in
struction. Democracy will rule you yet
besides other help to our people. We
will nerer hare a negro government oUer as

THE ELECTION.

The returns made of the late election we're not
accessible TO the representatives of the press
until a late hour yesterday afternoon, and one
ward the fifth-snd some of the polls Of other
wards had not been returned late in the night.
With the multiplicity OF candidates, regular
nominees and independent, voted for; the want
of method and uniformity in the returns OF the
commissioners, and the lsborious arithmeticsl
calculations necessary to be accurate, it would be
impossible to give the details of the voting in each
precinct, or even in each ward, in a reliable
form, before tomorrow, or, perhaps. the next
day. AS erroneous figures would only misle sd
the public, and partial reports could only be
basis of conjecture to the election or defeat of
candidates, we confne ourselves to the votes on
the Constitution and for governor aud Congress.

A "HEAvY WINDFALB."-We learn from NJ.

last Sunday, near the Tuscasse Crossing, on the
san JacntO, about one hundred yards from the
scene of the fatal difficulty between Smith and
May, by man under the assumed name of Yoak
um. il is supposed to have been buried in that
spot by Gonzales, who was one OF the early colo
nists of this State in 1923. Gonzales was killed
not far from the same place, by robbers, in the
same year, we think, who thought he had the
money on his person. 1t was known by many
persons that the money was buried some where
on the San Jacinto, and many vain searches we're
made for the treasure. Yoakum, whom old in
babitants think they have seen in Texas many
years ago, appeared in the neighborhood some
weeks ago, by himself alone, TO search for the
money, and was successful. There is a magnolia
tree near the Tuscasee Crossing, having the fol-
lowing inscription cut upon .t: IS. Mull," and
under il, "lS2s." Yoakum, as soon as he saw the
characters, pulled out a measuring stick and
measured fifty yards doe east, dug into the earth,
and discovered the money. After this singular
transaction, he Immediately left for parts un-
known.-LHouston Telegraph.

negro was run of by the radicals. Afterwards

to approach the polls on account Of the mass of
country negroes.
AuGusTL. April 20.-The election is progressing
without collision. The negroes with few excep.
tions voted the radical ticket They marched IN
squads from the eOuntrytO the polls with banners
flying, and yelling for Bullock. Whenever
colOred voter was suspected he was set upon and
inundated. In this way some were deferred
from voting the Democratic ticket. They gen
orally went solid for the radical party. The eX.
citement is intense and but little needed to bring
on q collision. Whites generally remained away
from the polls and abstained from adding 10 the
excitement. About 2200 votes were polled,
nearly 1000 Of which are negroes. The total
registered vote in this county is $500.

FOR GOVERNOR.

II is believed that all the nominees of the Dem
OcTatc party for parish officers, viz Judges,
clerks of courts and sherifis, are elected. The
nominees Of the party for city Offices, chosen by
the city at large, mayor, controller and 8 rect
commissioner, are undoubtedly elected, except
Mr. Murphy, the candidate for street commits
sioner whose election is involved in doubt by the
Independent candidacy OF Mr.. Kathmau.
ln regard 10 the vote upon the Consultation
there is manifest error IN the returns made
from poll No. of the third precinct, and poll
No. of the 4th precinct. In each of these re-
turns the registers Of the names of voters show
that over one hundred more persons voted than
appears in adding up the votes for and against
the Constitution. An analysis of the votes cast
for governor and other officers, compared with
that cast on the Constitution, leads to the belief
that the error is against the Democratic party.
For recorders Mr. Jackson, the Democratic
nominee in the Fourth District. and Mr.. Gasrinel
in the Second District are elected. The radical
candidate in the Third District is elected. In the
First District, notwithstanding the opposition Of
independent candidates from the Democratic
ranks, there is some ground to hope that Mr..
Manning has been elected.
