Mr.. Sawyer and the Chatham Railroad
To the Editor ofthe Daily Nea0s::


To the Editor cfthe Daily Nevs:
sm-You have been mlsinformed as to my
supporting" the Chatham Railroad scheme.
I have not concerned myself about it one way
or the other: Those directly Interested on
each side are at Columbia, and quite competent
to do their own work. 7 am certainly as much
q friend to Charleston as profess to be, but
do not think it my business to oppose every
measure some Of her citizens may think inju-
rious to her interests; for it has been too often
the case that they have been the advocates OF
o policy which proved antagonistc to those
interests. In this case, however, the introduc-
tion Of my name into your paper Of Tuesday
was quite gratuitous, for I have done nothing
at all in the case.
Respectfully, F.A. SAWYER

TANBURa.-A rousing Democratic meeting Was
held in spartanburg on the evening Of the 18th
inst, one Of the results Of which was the or!
ganization OF colored Democratic Club. Thir-
ty-four colored men openly and enthusiastically
avowed their determination to join to and work
for the Democratic party. Several Of those
who joined have heretofore been among the
most prominent and active members Of the
Union League. Eliphas Mulligan, who was
candidate for the Legislature at the last cleo
ton, on the Radical ticket, not only joined the
Club, but made a speech, avowing his dissatis-
faction and disgust with the Radical party, and
his determination to use all his efforts for the
succsss Of the Democratic party. The meeting
was also addressed by Colonel Stobo Farrow
and VIM. Z. Blake, Esq, as well as by three
colored speakers, Minor and Lee, of Columbia,
and Anderson, ct Union. The meeting will be
followed by similar ones throughout the dis

A ARow-AIMosT.-There was big hub-bub
on East Bay yesterday afternoon, in front OF
Mayor Clark's store. A colored woman sud-
denly met her husband, who had deserted her
and married another woman, and begged and
implored that he would return to his first fond
wife. Pleading and cutting were mingled IN
about equal proportions, when the husband
bolted away, followed by the crowd, and made
his escape until he was carried to the guard
house by the irrepressible police. Such are
the blessings Of colored mstrimony.

A LIVELY TINE IN THE MAYORS COURT
Quite stir was occasioned upon the streets
yesterday morning by the tidings that promi-
pent member Of the bar had been arrested aud
confined in the Guardhouse. The facts, as
gathered by our reporter, are briefly these: On
Monday morning an offender, charged with
being drunk aud disorderly, was sentenced by
Mayor Clark to be fined ten dollars. Yesterday
morning Colonel A. h. Brown, the attorney
for the hapless indi gidual alluded to, appeared
at the Mayors Court and asked a remission OF
the fine. This was refused, and the refusal led
to some sharp words on the part OF Colonel
Brown, who declared in substance that Mayor
Clark had no rightful title to the positlon
which he held or legal authority to impose
fines. ThereIpon the Mayor. declining to dis
cuss the new question thus raised, requested
Col Brown to leave the Courtroom; and, upon
his refusal to obey, ordered his arrest. seve-
raj Of the officers in attendance upon the Court
forthwith seized Co. Brown, who, as it may be
imagined, was not in the most amiable mood
and hustled him into one Of the interior apart
ments Of the Guardhouse, where he was de-
tanned until after the adjournment OF the
Court. Subsequently he re-entered the Court
room andarpted some harsh epithets to the
police concerned in his arrest. A complaint
has been entered against him for abusive Ian
,gusge towards policeman in the discharge OF
his duty: The case will be heard this morning
before the Mayors Court. 80 ,-.'l7. :. .i..t +

:, SHoCKMa MURDER N WuLIAMsBURa.-S.
A. H., OF Kirgstree, kindly sends us the fol-
lowing particulars of a recent murder:
son Thursday last q most brutal murder was
perpetrated in Williamsburg District, on San
tee, a few miles north OF Lenud's Ferry. 1t seems
that man named James D. Thomas, a poor
but honest and hard working white citizen, had
been for some time in the habit Of hauling
from the woods TO the river small lots Of tur-
pentine for the freedmen in the neighborhood.
He had hauled some on several occasions for
the freedmen named respectively Wallace
Crops alas Evans, and Thomas Graham, and
they having failed to pay him he had succeed
ed in stopping the amount dne him in the
hands of Captain Foster Of the steamer which
took away the turpentine on the river. On
THURSDAY last these freedmen and MIR. Thomas
happened to meet at the steamer, where they
remained till just before night, when the for
mer induced the latter to take passage with
them IN their. canoe up @ small creek, which
lruns out from the river in the direction OF
their respective homes, After getting up, the
creek o short distance they turned upon Mr.
Thomas and brutalIy murdered him, and then,
in order to hide the awful deed they had COM
mite /, they sunk the body in the creek and.
fastened it down to the bottom with a chain. A
iary of inquest was held over. the body By the
Coroner the next day, and the facts found by
them as stated. Crops and Graham have
been arrested and confined IN jail to await their
trial

1Ise.-Ar correspon lent informs us that at
the Republican caucus, held in Columbia on
Saturday night, for the purpose of nominating
Circuit Judges,seJ. J. Wright, the colored
senator from Beaufort, was nominated. by Ban
dolph, ceaored. The nomination was seconded
in q set speech by Speaker F. j. Moses, who
said that the time had come when the oolored
man should hold Office, that he was prepared
for. the issue and ready at AL times to make
IL, and that II. such platform would cause
the defeat OF Grant and Colfa1, he for one was
ready to meet defeat. This caused some SUE
prise, as when OF the beginning Of
Thea session Whipper (colored,) nomi-
znstsd Elliott (colored,) for Speaker, Moses
violently opposed the nomination, and said
that such measures would cost the party half q
million votes The difference is that.Moses,
after his election as Speaker, ran off to Charles
tom to avoid voting on the social equality bill,
and then, to curry favor, cries out in secret
caucus for Office for the black man, while Whip
per was open and above board, and declared in
open session that the negroes ought to have Of
fee because they had the majority and the
greater intelligence. ..sn,a.. as /.
It is said that Moses wants TO go to Congress
because greenbacks are better than bills re-
ceivable, and that DeLarge (colored) longs for
the uneasy honors OF the Speakers chair. The
tumbling Of Moses was agreed on by the pre-
cious pair, but will produce no effect, unless
the doors of the circus are open when harle-
nr1in makes his appearance. ft-.-. I.
