. The Elections.

The official returns may look brighter
than the estimates sent in BY our correspon-
dents, but the indications now are that both
Scott and Ransier are elected by decisive
majority. Edgeaeld will give Scott-nearly
three hundred majority, and it is claimed
that the Reform candidates are defeatedin
Oconee-a county which was deemed GER
tain to give a heavy vote against the Scott
Ring. At this writing we can only claim
Anderson 8, Chesterfield 2, Horny 2, Lancas- :
ter 2, Lexington 2, Marion 4, Pickens 1,
Spartsnburg T.. York 4, Greenville 4, and
Union, 3, making eleven counties, with 81
members Of the lower house. I'm Barr well
one Reform member Of the Legislature may
be elected. Nothing better is expected.
That the Scott vote is so large is not sur
prising when the frauds Of the party are con-
sidered. Fresh details pour inerery day.
This morning We have accounts from Collie
ton, where the managers Of elections were
not sworn; from Gadsden, where two hun
dred imported railroad hands were allowed
to vote after residence of six weeks in the
State; from :Fairfeld,. where the fraudulent
votes are countedr by the score from Edge
field, where at least three hundred illegal
votes were polied. ~ ,..s,I.
This is sure ire The Reform party has
fought good fight, and will do better next

Fraudulent Voting.

.-s;E.cI "a .--..i.:ti i4a afuI
Thepromptness wIthwhich, in Charleston
County, proceedings have been taken, uh-
der the Uaited. States law; against those
persons who have been detected in voting
illegally at the late elections, will be imitat-
ed, we trust, in every part Of the State.
The law of Congress to enforce the right Of
citizens of. the United States to vote in, the
several, States. Of the Union is 50 plain. and
clear in its provisions, that no fraudulent
svoterylagainst whom there is :tae leastiposi-
tive evidence, canihope to escape, and the
penalties 81, 'nne and; ;;lmpdsonment., are
severe enough to daunt the ambition Of the
boys 8f fifteen WHO anticipate their majority,
and OF the, enthusiastic ScottiteS who
thought it their duty to vote as often as
possible. :
is only bypushing vigorously the pro
ceedings against the Ignorant men whose
fraudulent voting may have reelected
Governor Scott that We can expect to obtain
an honest election hereafter Joe Crews
and Others, of,the Scott clique, have assured
the colored, boys that they had a right to
vote, and ought to- do it. They have, be-
sides, so dwelt upon the necessity of secur-
ing the success of the Radicals, that the
colored people have looked upon the elec-
tions as matter OF life and death, and have
regarded it as holy work when they could
vote twice, even at the cost of triple per
jury Indeed, they have regarded it as much
an act in. self-defeuce as though they were
using knife to drive of q would-be assas-
sin. Besides the fraudulent voters, there
are the hundreds Of negroes who .have-used
force o. intimidation .pf various kinds to
keep: othas from depositing their. ballots for
the. candidates of:their choice. These, also,
caifbe severely punished under the United
States law. The persons who are really re-
sponsible are the Radical politicians who
taught their. blind followers to do these
things, but the penalty must fall, as usual,
upon the poor tools who do the work and
get none d the pay. .
We deem it of the first Importance that
this question should be looked into at once.
There can be no ditticultyiu finding in every
county few repeaters or bulies Who will
serve to- make examples OF. The county
and township committees can hunt them up,
and the knowledge that their neighbors
have been sent to the penitentiary for using
threats or voting twice in 1870 will do more
to bring about honest and free voting the
next time than all the preaching and talking
that could be done in decade. 1t is in
deed both proper and necessary that this be
done; it is proper that the wrong-doers may
be punished, and it is necessary in order
that it may be incontestably proved, that
there is one law for whites and blacks, and
that what is forbidden to the Reform party
cannot be done with impunity BY the most
ardent supporter Of Scott.

THE Radical s'victorfes" in the great
States of Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana,
amount to this: They have lost five Con-
gressmen in Pennsylvania, anda are seriously
weakened in each; branch Of the Leglsla-
ture. In Ohio the Radical majority has been
reduced one-half. And in Indiana. the. De-
mocrats' gain two Congressman, obtain a
majority in both houses OF the General As
sembly, and elect the. whole State ticket.
If the Radicals call this a triumph and "a
''clean sweep" why do they not soothe the
feelings OF the French by declaring, with
.eGualreason, that the Germans were routed
at Sedan:

A Question with Two Sides.

Philosophers tell us that nothing Is too
minute to be divided with suitable instru-
ments, because we can not conceive of any
object so small as not to have two sides. Ii
this be true of the very smallest objects, 1t
must be much more so respecting something
so extensive and profound as the question OF
"open or shut" the Crystal Saloon, at the
corner of Chartres and Cont streets.
Mr.. Jules Socha. the proprietor OF this
much frequented place of amusement, not
long since had his feelings considerably
exercised" on learning that petition had
been presented 20 the city authorities pray
inc that the Crescent Saloon might be shut
up Now. Mr. Soeha had not opened and
fitted up his house in fine style. with stage
and scenery and accommodations for the
comfort Of host Of customers, paying
both theater and cotfcchou5e licenses. and
employing the efficient veteran, Tom Dry
den, to restrain possible outgushings OF al
coholic impetuositv, and all to terminate IN
being shut up, SO he did not shut up. but
opened louder than ever, particularly when
with open mouth he told his friends the
contemplated mischief against him.
Both Mr. Jules Socha and the Crescent
saloon have hosts of friends, and this was
soon shown by q counter petition with
abundance of names signed thereto. amt
several circumstances connected Herewith
strongly significant OF tie fact that great
many people did not want the Crescent
saloon shut up, even if some folks did.
Most Of the signers on this second petl-
ton, as the addresses appended to the sig

hood Then there were various certlhca-
tons to the effect that parties making these
certificates had signed the petition against
the saloon under Misrepresentation and mis-

mistake. With these were certificates from

The congregation of the First African
Baptist Church, Rev. Nelson Saunders pas
tor, at the corner Of Howard and Cypress
streets. gave their annual children enter
tainment yesterday.
It has been the custom for years in this
church annually to assemble the children
connected with the Sunday School or the
members of the church. and give them a
festive entertainment. These are always
occasions of great interest. Many scores
of children of various ages and sizes,
all neatly dressed. are assembled.
After preliminary singing and prayer, the
elders of the church marshal them TO
long table abundantly spread with good
things of the sort best suited to juvenile
tastes-nuts. cakes, candy. fruits, lemonade,
etc. Here they get their fill OF childish
qualification, the elders walking around and
seeing that each is plentitully supplied.
After the feast great number OF pieces
Of juvenile music were sung III the whole
souIed, childish manner. and with an cx,
preston of the utmost enjoyment. The
older people came in also for their share OF
the entertainment, which partook, however,
moro of the solid than the cnildren's feast.
The afternoon thus passed pleasantly away
and the company broke up IN time to get
