= Judge Carpenter addressed an immense
mass meeting at Chester, on the 5th instant
About fifteen hundred present, including about
five hundred colored voters. The meeting was
enthusiastic and passed off quietly Wimbush
making no efforts to create disturbance.
= The New York 7imcs leading Republi-
can paper says: The fact is, we believe, that
outrageous as the conduct of Southern NAL
contents has been in various districts, there has
not been one case in which the matter has been
enquired into, in which the reports of the news
papers and politicians have not been found
grossly exaggerated, and in which even the ac-
tual result, in the way of "outrages," have not
been made up by attributing all crimes, of
which the origin was unknown, to one cause
- The Edgefeld Advertiser says: A COM
pany of United States troops is to be quartered
in our town before the election Not satisfied
with his wholesale system of plunder and rob-
berry, Scott has commenced system of mill
tary tyranny that has scarcely ever been sur
passed But not even the presence of the whole
man in Edgefcld District from voting on the
18th.
Two years ago, when Governor Scott went
into office, the people of this State were bank
rupt the planter had neither stock nor agri-
cultural implements, nor even seed, and the la
borcr was without food. The liabilities of the
State were S9,00O,000; they have been increas-
ed more than s1O,OOO,OOO.
- Governor Scott was applied to officially by
the Union Reform Executive Committee to ap-
point one of our party in each County. He
declined. Of the ninety-thrce appointed,
twenty-four are members of the present infl-
nous Legislature a large majority of them are
candidates, and they arc all, with insignificant
exceptions, the corrupt tools of the present dis
graceful administration.
= The German papers announce chat the
French prisoners of war are not to be all con-
fined in fortresses as many of them as posi-
BILE will De employed in executing public works.
just as Napoleon used the Germans who had
fallen into his hands to construct new roads,
The directors of the Royal Upper Silcsian Rail-
way have been already requested to state how
many of these prisoners they can take to add
building the new lines from Brcslau to Strehlan,
and from Posen to Thorn and Bromberg.
= The Commissioner of Internal Revenue
has decided that where business men had on
hand on the 1st of October, any amount of
blank receipts with two cent stamps imprinted
thereon, they can be allowed to exchange them
for equal value of revenue stamps of any de-
nomination they may select. This action is
caused by the law, which went into effect on
the 1st of October, abolishing stamps on re-
ceipts.

Fair Play in the Election.

The assurance given by Scott and Ransier to
the Executive Committee of the Reform party,
of their disposition to provide for fair, honest
and satisfactory election, had induced the hope
that q Joint Committee would be appointed to
see u fair count of the ballots on the 18th inst.
This hope, however, is blasted, as Scott will
make no arrangements to make it eficacious or
practical. We presume that the radical party
can not afford to make an arrangement SO fair
and honest Major Siebels, in his card Pnb-
Gshed on the 9TH instant, says:
The Secretary of the Executive Committee
of the Union Reform Party exceedingly re-
grets to announce to the public, that the efforts
on the part of the Committee to secure fair play
in the coming election, have been fruitless.
We were confident, at one time, that, our re-
quests being so reasonable and fair, there would
be no objection; but there is evidently strenu-
Gus opposition to any one of the Reform Party
being present with the boxes from the time the
polls open until the votes are counted out. I'm
less this arrangement is made in some OF the
Counties we are credibly informed, by both
Republicans and Reformers, that we will not
get fair count. 1t is evident from the very
fact that some of the Commissioners refuse to
consent to this arrangement, that they intend if
necessary to operate with the votes to our loss.
Near or quite one million of dollars directly or
indirectly are at stake in this contest; the temp
tation is too great, and no three men of any
one party should be subjected to it.
If customer orders fifty pounds of sugar Or
coffee of his grocer, the grocer refuses to weigh
it out because you are present, it is almost
proof positive that he intends to cheat you if
he can, and just so we regard this vote count
ing.
The Governor and Mr.. Ranser are very pro-
fuse in their expressions of a desire for us to
have fair play, but when you come to reduce
this matter to something tangible and practi-
cable it is explained away so you can't find
it, Some are told it is matter they can't con-
troll, it rests with the Commissioners, and it
would not do to cast any reflections upon them
or their honesty, &C., &c. tits very we'll known
to everybody that Governor Scott and Mr..
Ranser occupy just such position with their
party, that any advice given by them in good
faith would be implicitly obeyed by the Mana
gers and Commissioners.

Rather Honest.

It will be seen by the card of Henry Kenne-
Gy, the only public radical nominee for the
Legislature from this County, that he is bitterly
opposed to corruption and bribery, and will
use his influence to bring offenders to punish
ment. Is the necessity for reformation be-
coming so apparent that it is snecessary that the
radical candidates have to ego for it"? The
stepping stone to such reformation is to vote
for Carpenter and Butler on the 10Th inst.

pg According to the assessment for taxa
tion the total value of the real and personal
property in South Carolina is $16S, 600.
How much of this belongs to the party run
ming the government of the State? One
twentieth is about the amount. Can any man
in his senses afford to support party so cor
rupt and extravagant as the party in power.
The path of duty is plain. We need economy
in the management of our affairs, and let us OBJ
tain this needed boon by casting our votes for
the Reform nominees

Accounts from the cotton-g growing regions
of the South, especially in Louisiana, are more
favorable than they have been for years, and an
unusually large crop at the coming picking is
predicted. There is much difficulty experienced
regarding the difference between employers
and colored laborers, and to stimulate the latter
the expectation is encouraged that wages will
be increased during the coming season. The
planters in the Southwest are greatly encour-
aged at the crop prospect and it is asserted that
the cotton crop is wholly free fror. worms. In
view of the labor complications many of the
planters are arranging to procure Cinnamon
for next seasons labor,

A correspondent Of the Lewiston journal
has recently made a railroad excursion along
the Kennebec and noted the various points
of interest. He saw with pleasure that the
ice houses along the river had been white
washed. This will reflect the rays OF the sun
instead of absorbing them and renders them
better capable of preserving the ice If any
one wishes to know the difference let them
whitewash an old shingle, dry it, and hold
that and another old shingle to the fire and
see which will warm the quickest and they will
be surprised The black shingle will be
warm to the hand while the whitewashed one
will not exhibit any change. The correspon-
dent continues 1--WE were struck with the
spruce-like appearance of Hallowell. White
paint has been abundantly employed the last
year Her granite quarries, containing some
of the handsomest granite in the world, have
become more developed, and we rejoice to
see in this ancient borough signs of activity.
