Painful Accident.


On Thursday last, wilhelm the country, about
nine miles from this place, DR.. P. A. Wilhite
met with painful accident, which is likely to
confne him within doors for some time. tap
pears that he was riding in a two-horse buggy,
when a bolt gave way, throwing the double-tree
loose on one side and the DIR. attempted to get
out and fell upon mis- side, severely bruising
himself about the hip joint At one time it
was thought that dislocation ensued and per-
haps bone fracture, but it has been ascertain
ed there is neither fracture nor confusion. His
friends will be gratihed to learn that the acci-
dent did net result seriously, and while he is
suffering considerably, there will be no perma-
nent injury, as at first supposed.

that true member of the Church would scorn
to be found in bar-room. Furthermore, what
could have induced him to say anything about
bar-room, we are at loss to conjecture. If
there is one here, we didn't want everybody to
know it. Besides it is not always kept open,
for the proprietor keeps some liquor at home,
which those who do not belong to the Church
can get on Sundays
We advise "Omega," when he writes for q
public Journal not to indulge in offensive per-
sonalitics, thus arousing the ire of peaceably
inclined gentlemen, who would punish Come

The Reform Meeting at pendleton.

Only week ago it was announced through
the Charleston and Columbia papers that the
standard-bearers of the Union Reform party
would address the public at Pendleton on Tues
day, Goth inst. Notwithstanding the shortness
of the notice, says correspondent, there was
a very good attendance of both white and col
ored people, filling the Methodist Church, and
all the shady spots around.
The first speaker introduced was Gen. J. B.
Kershaw, who explained the policy of the
Union Reform party and why it was inaugnra-
ted, in very able and iorcible speech, which
was we'll received.
Gen. NJ. C. Butler followed and was greeted
with immense applause. lie spoke an hour,
and exposed the infamics of the Scott Ring" }"
bringing eleven distinct charges against it,
which were all we'll sustained
Hon. r. B. Carpenter then addressed the
meeting, and was interrupted throughout with
frequent applause. He paid handsome and
feeling tribute to John G. Calhoun. Alto
gether, he delivered one of the best political
speeches ever made in this section.
The utmost enthusiasm pcrvadcd the entire
assemb'age, and it may be set down as a fixed
fact that Pendleton will make good record
for honest government at the coming election.

sss The Abbeville Press and Banner will
accept many thanks for the evidence of its ap-
probation, as contained in that ''gentle remin-
der" last week, and we beg to assure our friend
that it will give the Lateligencsr much pleas
nre to visit his sanctum az the earliest pos
possible hour each week. The neglect to mail
a copy to our cotemporary in time for Thurs
days train has been uninteutional, and in fact
we did not deem it matter of consequence to
do So But we shall seek to merit higher ap-
probation still by punctual visits hereafter

n@- A correspondent of the Daily Repubk-

present" at the Radical meeting held at this
place on Friday night last. He must haveseen

An INFAMOUS CHARGE.-Judge Hoge, the
other night, in speaking of the past and pres
ent financial condition of South Carolina, re-
terred to the fact that the Radical admin
istration found only s45 in the State Treasury
two years ago, and he boldly charged that this
small amount would have been stolen, if the
Democratic officials had received two hours
notice! This infamous charge against the ad-
ministration of Ex-Governor Orr is basely false
and unfounded, but it is exactly in harmony
with the reckless assertions Of Judge. Hoge con-
corning the Union Reform party.

Two colorcd men, named respectively Scpio
Edwards and Burrell Jones, got into an alter
cation on Saturday last, in front of A. P. Hub
bard's store, when Scipio Edwards struck at his
antagonist with pocket-knife and cut him
severely across the left eye. We understand
that Burrcu is likely to recover without any
serious damage. Edwards was arrested imme-
diately, and gave bond for his appearance.

If it is true that the Houeu Com

bill to abolish poIygamy in this beau,
tltdl territory, then we shall await
with anxiety its presentation and the
action upon it in the House, and
hope and pray for its passage. II il

soldiery with the militia to be raised
in the Territory to quash the adultef
Gus thing, let it be done. And if they
cannot accomplish the object, let en-.

we think there would be but the
chance offered, when thousands of the
old soldiers who fought through the
weary years of the rebellion, would
march up again, and shoulder to
shoulder, tramp on to crush out the
institution. That beautiful country
which is part of the heritage OF
this people, should notbe held altogeth-

the basin of the Territory is ruled,

from the blight of those fanatic zeal.

who went under the assumed name
of FRED. DOUGLASS. The story OF
