That new mining camp, near Empire,
was visited by several citizens Of this
place yesterday. They report some forty
persons there ut present. The speci-
mems brought to town are fine looking

discovered. II will be thoroughly tested
in q few days.
That free fight at the State Prison
was not much of a fight after all. We
were misinformsd in regard to the mat
ter, and from our local it might lead an
outsider to believe that a general in.
surrection had occurred in the Peuiten-
,iary but such vas not the fact. Only
two convicts got into q fight, and they
were promptly separated by the officer
in charge.

SUPPOSED SUICIDE OF GEORGE G. HAIR
RIMAN.-George C. Hartman, q WELL
known citizen, died on Monday night ut
his residence at Thirteenth and Howard
~stIests, uuder circumstances which lead
to the suspicion that he committed sui

was at the time Of his death b~ookkeeper
for Ben. Holiday, at the office Of the

ship Company, and had previously been
the cashier Of the company. In connec-
ton with some outside business opera
lions, it is said that his financial affairs
had become very much disarranged. On
Monday parties for whom he had trans-
acted business, and to whom lie had not
accounted in a satisfactory manner,
attached the money he had in one or
more of the banks. In tho afternoon
Mr.. Hartman returned home from the
office and acted and talked in q strange
manner. He told his wife he had been
sick at the office, and that three

that his time had o come. The
physicians did not arrive ut the house
in accordance with his statement, but
the family physician was sent for and

Terrible Murder In Wnshlngton-A Mar
Killed by n Negro Woman.
The Washington Star of March 9Th
says: About half.past IL o'clock this
morning, as Mr.. James Ingle, n young
white man, about 25 or &c years old,
residing ut a house on First street east,
between A and B streets north, was
lying down on q sofa in Il room Of the
house, he was suddenly approached by
a colored woman employed in the house,
who struck him on the head with an
axe, driving in the skull and making n
frightful wound. Milly Gaines is the
name Of the colored woman, and after
committing the deed she at once pro-
eeeded to the Central Guard.house and
gave herself in custody of Lieut.. Kelly,
stating that she had killed u white man.
She was placed in one of the cells until
the condition Of the wounded nan could
be ascsrtained and the particulars Of
the affair known. 1t is runored that
jealousy Of q white woman who accom-.
panied Ingls on the Avenue yesterday
to see the procession WAS the cause Of
iuo bLIuCh.
Drs. Ford and Dexter were called,
and did what they could for lngle, but
he died about l! o'clock r. NJ, having
been unable to speak after the blow
was struck. The accused, when she
arrived at the station-house coolly said
to Lieutenant Kelly, "Pve killed n
man at least, he will die )" and on
being questioned, said something about
the deceased having seduced her.
When informed that he was dead she
showed no signs whatever of sorrow.
After the death Of Ingle, Justice Clark
examined the accused ut the Central
Guard.house, when Mrs. Fosdict, Miss
Shsfer, Mr.. briggs and others gave
their testimony, from which it appeared
that yesterday the deceased went out
with Miss Shafer, and the accused fol-
lowed them, close to them and they
tried to make her leave, but fniled, and
she followed them back to the house,
insisting on going into the parlor with
them, and that there WAS dispute be
tween the deceased and the accused.

Too Much Military.
From the New York Herald.


Military here, military there, military
everywhere seems to b. the order of
things. A local judge cannot make a
decision involving question of State
authority over prisoner but we have
the farce of a military demonstration,
and that, too, by order of the President
of the United States. The military
satraps of the South are ever present,
and put their hands, or rather their
swords, into all the political and social
affairs of the people. One decides this
way to-day and another that way to-
morrow. and the unfortunate South
erners, whether they have gone through
the process of reconstruction or not, are
kept in q state of fermentation and
disorganization. Everybody, as a
consequence, appeals to the military.
We take the latest news from Virginia
as an example of what is occurring in
other parts of the South under this
system of military..rule. In the news
from Richmond published yesterday it
is said:-"Accounts have been received
at headquarters of riots and disturban-
ces between the whites and blacks in
various portions of the State. Several
parties have been killed during the
week. A negro was shot yesterday in
riot at Heathville by white mob.
A sailor was arrested by the military
commissioner, but the citizens the same
night released him from Jail. A white
man named Lett murdered a deputy
constable in Brunswick, on Tuesday,
who was trying to arrest him. General
Candy has sent detachments of troops
to the several counties where these acts
of violence have been committed.
The government authorities will say
probably, that these disturbances show
the necessity of military action. But
it is the military government over the
South and its incessant meddling with
the local affairs of che people which
cause these disorders. Let the South
erners govern themselves ard let the
civil law he supreme, and there will be
peace. Under the existing state OF
things both the government and peo-
pie will be imbued with the military
idea. Itishigh time that the President,
Congress and all the subordinate off.
GERS should divest their minds of this
idea and restore self-government and
| the civil law to all parts of the republic.

The Commercial Value or the South.

From the New York Herald.
Well might the North buckle Oh all
its armor to keep the South i'll the
Union, for, apart from political consld-
erations and the patriotic sentiment OF
maintaining the grandeur and glory OF
the republic intact, that part of our
common country is the sOurcs of our
commercial wealth and more valuable
to the North than ever India was to
England. According to the latest sta
tistics the value of Southern exports
last year was over two hundred and
fourteen millions, while that of the
North was little less than two hum
dred millions. There is this great diff
erence, too, in the nature of the exports
of the two sections, that large portion
of those of the North is in the precious
metals, which in a measure impover-
ishes the country, while those of the
South are the products Of the soil and
bring us gold orits equivalent. Cotton,
of course, is the great staple, though
tobacco is valuable product, and SUI
gar: rice and other things form a part
of the exports. The domestic trade of
the South is still more valuable to the
North, for its supplies our manufac-
turers with the raw material they need
and takes back Northern manufactures
i'm return. These great and valuable
exports and this vast trade, too, have
been developed again SO soon after the
South has been desolated by war. This
not only shows the surprising wealth OF
the soil, but the astonishing energy Of
character and recuperative power of
the people. Yet it is this rich and
beautiful country and these citizens
which are kept under the heel of milf
tary despotism and made the football
of scheming politicians years after the
close of the war. But this state OF
things must soon come to an end, and
the South will rise from its ashes to be
the richest country in the world.

The Byron Scandal.

The leading journals i'm England and
this country universally condemn and
discredit the .so-called revelations OF
Mrs. Stowe, and attribute her attempt
to blacken the memory of Byron to her
inordinate love of the sensational and
charge her with disposition to twist
and use passages i'm the poets works to
substantiate her monstrous statement
Her relations suggest those made by
Mrs. Keckley about the White House.
She may shortly he expected TO an
nounce that she is collecting materials
for "Salty Scenes, or the Secret History
Of Sodom and GomOrrah, including
valuable documents found among the
private papers of the late Mrs. Lott
or aunt Harriet's Ash-Hopper, by the
authoress of Uncle Toms Cabin" OF

Masked Men i'm Rutherford.

The negroes and the KukluX have
been cutting up generally in Ruther-
ford county, one negro there acciden-
tally killed, few badly beaten, and q
large number scared away to Nashville.
4 SQUAD of Federal troops have been
sent to Rutherford county, and order is
once more restored i'm that section
doubtIes.. II is hard to tell who are to
blame, but it appears that both the
colored people and white, were to
blame. The former for carrying their
Guns to the polls, and for firing on the
masked men, and the whites, if they
were whites, for riding through the
country masked and threatening to
nunish certain negroes. Though the
negroes are the most criminal, having
committed the overt act, yet the masked
men did very wrong to even Brighten
a bad negro away. Civil law is su-
preme in this country, and no crime
should be punished without ii. Justice
Is mine satin the law.
Masked men have recently appeared
in Summer county and other localities
of the State, threatening and punish
ing the colored people. We are glad
that no such unnecessary demonstra-
lions have been made in this county
The white people now have the law in
their own hands, and need he in no
fear of having injustice done them.
The negroes have nearly all acted un-
wisely in remaining in antagonism to
the white people, but they are to be
pitied and forgiven, and not visited
with Vengeance. Treat them kindly and
christianity, and never like pagans.

The Tarbell Interview With Genera
Grant.

Washington correspondence of the Boston
Post.l
The revised account of the interview
between the President and Tarbell,
published yesterday, omits several
passages i'm the original draft that indi-
cate more definitely the animus OF
Grant than that which has gone to the
public. The following are the omitted
Sentences, viz: Speaking of having
fought against Southerners, SO long, he
declared that it seemed impossible for
mature men to accept sincerely and SO
suddenly views and opinions which
they resisted at such cost He (Grant)
thought he knew the Southern people,
and, while nothing could be more graf
living to him than to know that they
had in good faith come up to his plat
form, he could not realize that such
was the case. With regard to Tennes-
see the President was equally explicit,
though he expressed his inability to
understand the differences there and
wondered very much at the positions OF
Senator Brownlow and Governor Sem
ter, whom he had held to be not only
incorruptible, but men not easily
imposed upon" Although the fore
going extracts were embodied in the
written document of the interview and
are correct utterances by Grant, the
latter as matter of policy preferred that
they should not be published.

Raiicalism vs.. the People.

From the Greenvillc National Union.
There has been no party in this State
in the past three years but the Radical
party. The people, though deeply in
terested, We're disheartened and despon-
dent. 4 few brave spirits only, with
out organization or cooperation, were
continually and manfully battling sin
gle-hanued against the whole army.
The cause stood on the docket thus:
THE RADICALS VS.. THE PEOPLE.
The former held on to the power with
tyrarical grasp. But at last, all on a
sudden, by one grand cooperative
movement, the latter by common
impulse, not as a party, but as a peo-
pie, made common cause against a
common foe; and have utterly routed
and defeated them. The victory is too
grand, too comprehensive, too noble, to
be called victory of any party. 1t is
the victory of reason over passion: OF
intelligence over ignorance. of virtue
over vice, of right over wrong, of truth
over error, of a broad, philanthropic,
generous liberality over 4 bigoted,
proscriptive tyranny.
