THE FRAUDS IN THE SOUTH CAROLINA
ELEcT1oN-The Washington correspondent
of the New York Herald writes to that paper
as follows, concerning the views of Senator
SAWYER and Representative Bowen in the mat
ter of the frauds committed in the late election
held in this State, and which have been fire.
quently exposed in our columns:
Congressman G. c. Bowen, from the Second
South Carolina District, is ready for the work
of the coming session. In regard to the cleo.
ton of DeLarge, his opponent in the recent
canvass, he states that already eight out of
twelve Commissioners of Election in the Coun-
ties of Charleston, Colleton, Barnwell and Beau
fort, comprising his district, have been indicted
for tampering with the votes entrusted to their
care In one voting precinct there are over 200
men ready to swear that they voted for Bowen,
while the official returns showed only fourteen
votes cast for Mr.. Bowen. Every advantage
was taken by his opponents of the election law
passed at the late session of the South Carolina
Legislature In the City of Charleston theap--
pointment of judges under the Congressional
election law insured fair count OF the votes
but in the remaining portion of the district
there was no limit to the changing of votes.
With but few exceptions it Is claimed that the
managers as we'll as the Commissioners of Elec-
tl0n were lnCere5teu pditieSJ UCihS StAuiu'.So
for State and local Offices on the Scott ticket.
Mr. Bowen will not only contest the election OF
DeIarge, but says he will show by sworn state
ments thai the official returns were made to suit
the interests of his opponent, without reference
to the actual number of votes cast. He will
not only claim his seat in the Forty second
Congress, but will prosecute every man in his
district who participated in the election frauds.
Senator Sawyer, of South Carolina, who has
been suffering for some time past with a COM
plication of diseases, gives discouraging ac-
count of the prospects of the Republican party
in his State. He substantiates the charges
made of fraud in the Second District at the last
election and says that in some of the voting
precincts the women actually voted as the rep
rresentatives of their absent husbands. He does
not hesitate to say that unless there is a sub
stantial reform within the next two years the
State will fall into the hands of the Democrats
at the ensuing Presidential election. The man
ner in which the last State election in South
Carolina is represented to have been held ex-
ceeds anything in the way of election frauds
that could be charged against the New York
Democracy by itsmost ingenious enemies, and
this charge is made by the personal and politi-
cal friends of the administration.

A rather curious lawsuit has ipt termina.

A rather curious lawsuit has ,ivt termina-
ted at Cairo, the plaintiff being lady, andthe
defendant man. The lady was engaged to be
married, but was foled in it by defendant, who
called the attention of the lover to the rather
prominent nasal organ of the lady, telling him
that such nose was sign of bad temper and
sbiftressncss. This so wrought upon the lover
that he broke the engagement, and hence the
suit against the traduccr to recover damages.
The jury could not agree, so the prisoner was
acquitted.
"A lady at GAINESVILLE, Ohio, in cleaning her
house, found package of two pounds of pow
der, and thinking it was lampblaack, she threw

except piece of her calico dress, which was
found on an apple tree in the orchard.

LADIES SHOULD READ NEwsPAPERs-.It is
great mistake in female education to keep.
Young lady's time and attention devoted only
to fashionable literature of the day. If you
would qualify her for conversation, you must
give her something to talk about, give her ac-
Guaintance with the actual world and its tram

per. and become familiar with the present char
acter and improvement of our race. History
is of some importance; but the past world Is
dead I'VE have nothing to do With it. Our
thoughts and our concerns should be for the
present world to know what it is, and improve
its condition. Let her have an intelligent opin-
ion. and be able to sustain intelligent conver-
sation according to the mental. moral and re-
ligious improvement of our times. Let the
gildcd ANIMALS and poems on the centre table
be kept a part of the time covered with weekly
and daily journals. Let the whole family

The character of community depends much
on the young ladies in it. If the latter are cul-
tivated, intelligent and accomplished, the young
men will feel the requirement that they them
selves should be upright, gentlemanly and re-
fined but if their female friends are frivolous
and silly, the young men will be found to be
dissipated and worthless. But remember al
WAYS that sister is the best guardian of a
brothers integrity. She is the surest inculca-

she is the true light of home. The pride otthe

spy on the top OF very tall house. He was
man in military uniform, holding, a blue flag in
one hand and a fed one in the other, and wear.
ing in front of him a long apron painted dull
red, with the narrow white markings to resem-
BILE the brick work of the neighboring chimneys,
between which he was crouched. He had been
observed waving the flags in question, and had
thus become the target of the Gardes Mobiles,
all of whom, however, fired wide of their mark:
In an instant he slid down the long slated roof,
and, clinging to the stone cornicc, had dropped
into the iron balcony of the floor beneath and
disappeared through one of thewindows The
Gardes Mobiles at once obtained admission ii.t' z,

SIGNIFICANT MovEMENTs.-Many OF our
readers who are Unable to provide themselves
with the great metropolitan journals, are, no
doubt, in comparative darkness in regard TO the
means employed in the great State OF Missouri,
in the late election, to carry it for the conser-
vatives.
They nominated for Governor, Hon. B.
Gratz Brown, who is liberal Republican, and
an advocate for reform in the civil service. The
campaign was fought upon very much the
same platform as that of the Union Reform
party in this State. Their watchwords were
''retrenchment and reform, acquiescence in the
result of the legislation of Congress without
regard to the colored people, and general am
nesty to all who were disfranchised by reason
of participation in the rebellion"
The result was the redemption of the State
from Radical misrule by a large majority. AS
In this State, 80 in Missouri there were those
who call themselves "white mans government"
advocates, but in no instances we're they sue
cessful, and their opposition only served to show
how large majority of the whites approved of
and upheld the policy of acquiescence in ac-
complished facts, and their determination not
to revive those old and dead questions, upon
which the country was divided in 1865. Their
policy, like ours, was progressive, and 1t demon
strates the wisdom of our action, that other
parts of this great country are determined that
war questions shall be abolished, and only those
measures adopted which tend to our advance
ment in material prosperity, and the building
up of our waste places. In other words, South
Carolina is two years ahead of most Of her Sis
ter States, in political wisdom and foresight

Letter from Commodore Maury on nimigfa.

An interesting circular has just been issued
by Commodore NJ F. Maury to the farmers of
Virginia, setting forth the wonderful undevel-
oped resources of the State and the advantages
of immigration. He proposes the following
plan to encourage immigration, and it deserves
the attention of land owners in that and every
other Southern State: 30 -
I have already indicated concert of action
and Joint contribution. Let me illustrate Sup
pose the farmers in one of the counties should
club together and aim to get two hundred we'll
to-do immigrants, with their families-say 900
souls in ALTO come from abroad and settle
among them. Suppose that they we're to offer
forty acres Of land on long credit-say seven
years, without interest-on condition that the
new corners would settle on it and improve it.
Let us calculate the profit and loss /: In the
first place the wealth of the country would be
increased S1,0OO,00O by the presence of these
1000 new corners, and the old residents would
have to pay taxes on one million of dollars less
than they now do; and this, including county,
State, Federal, school any other taxes, count lip
to not little sum, as you we'll know.
In the next place the new conner would pay
the taxes on your forty acres, and relieve you of
burdens to that extent.
Again, these 1000 new comers would spend
III yOuL COuHIy AZ iAiOACy OA IL OIL 49, VI :,
equivalent of money-something like $500 900
the first year, and smaller sums annually for
several years, until they could get their farms
fairly Under way, and themselves sufficiently
provided to become producers, and of these ex-
penditures the land owner would get the lions
share.
Finally the new comers, by their presence,
their labor and their Improvements, would
greatly enhance the value of real estate. 1t is
by no means an over estimate to assume thatby
the time the first payment fell due, after this
long credit, the value of your own lands would
be increased to the extent Of several dollars an
acre.
Indeed, if the plan were adopted by the land
owners of the State generally, and successfully
carried out you would soon see real estate in
Virginia changing hands in figures at which it
is now held in Delaware, Pennsylvaia ane New
jersey. It would not be unreasonable for any
of us here to expect to see that day. Each of
the ninety-nine counties Of the State introdu-
cling during the next seven years two hundred
families from abroad, averaging five souls each.
Why, in round numbers, that would be the in
PRODUCTION of 100000 new citizens into the
State, and an addition of S150,000000 to its
wealth. These people, payihg their own pas
sage, would come from the old country to Vir-
ginia direct; thus placing at your doors, at
their own expense, empty ships ready to carry
your produce back at low rates of freight, and
so you would have the boon of direct trade
which you have coveted SO eagerly and so long.
