The Election system OF south Carsliaa.
A Columbia dispatch, of October 9th,

A Columbia dispatch, of October 9th,
says:
The election ia this State is over. The re-
suit is tie actual subyersion and destruction
of the franchise in South Carolina. On the
seaboard and islands, the negroes in savage
crowds held the ballot boxes, and crammed
them with all the radical tickets sent to
them. The negro women were even more VI
client than the men and, With arms in hand.
these brutal me5s attacked. beat, and drove
off every man, white or black. who showed
or tried to vote the reform ticket. In TIE
middle counties the negro militia did the
same service, and although Negro boys of fif-
teen to twenty years Of age were seen to vote,
no white man. ventured to challenge them
Not only minors but feons. well known con-
victs for burglary. grand larceny, ETC., voted
and repeated often enough to count from FIVE
to ten votes each. Tie conservative negroes
only exhibited their sentiments passively, by
staying away from the polls In the upper
counties, where the white population is in
the ascendancy, the people were oyerawed
by Grants troops, in addition to Scott's ne
gro militia. The law of violence and intimi-
dation controlled everywhere; savage negro
mobs on the seaboard, negro militia in the
middle country. and negro militia and United
States troops in the upper country. 1t is ri
diculaus to cali this an election.
BESIDES all this, the present infamous cleo
ton law. passed by Scots's Legislature, keeps
the whole matter, as it was designed to do,
in the hands OF :he robher crew. Three Com
missioners are appointed hv Sc,.t for each
county, who have the entire control Of the
election. They in turn ano9int their crea-
lures managers at the different boxes. and
when the polls close the boxes are all placed
in the private custody Of tie three Commits
sioners and kept hy them Tor ten days, dn-
ring which time they count the coles privately,
and declare the result. Nearly all these
Commissioners and managers We're eaadi-
dates on the radical ticket in the late election.
Hence very little interest is felt as to what
their returns will be. 1t is taken for grant
ed they will report heavy radical majorities
everywhere, except where the fraud would
re too transparent, or where the white popu-
.ation is vastly in excess. This is the whole
history in few words.

The suferings of the thousands of sick and

Kind hearted people to extend aid for the al
deviation of their distress. In addition to
their own sick and wounded the Prussians
have to provide FOR fifty or sixty thousand

sings of peace will be any poorer by bestow-
ing the small amount asked For So humane a

entertainment and ball are such that every

SrocKroN AND CorpERopoLIs RAILROAD

STOCKTON AND CorPERoPoLIs RAILROAD
Our citizens will be glad to learn that pros.
poets Of building the railroad from Stockton
to Copperopolis still exist The Republican
says: that supply Of iron and ties are en-
the way from San Francisco and that work
on the road will commence forthwith. If it
is not speedily commenced Stockton will have
a formidable rival in the new town building
on the railroad now being constructed mp the
San Joaquin Valley for the freight and travel
of Tuoumne County. Our citizens will feel
better when they learn that rails are being
laid, their hopes have been raised so many
times to be disappointed that nothing but the
fact of work progressing will re-establish their
confidence in the building of the Stockton
