DOWN ON WHITTEMORE.
The Georgetown Radicals Denounce
the Cadetship Broker.

The Georgetown Times publishes, by re-
quest, the following preamble and resolutions.
which were adopted with but one dissenting
voice by large and influential meeting Of the
Republican party, held in Georgetown on the
evening of the 94th instant:
Whereas, The ex-Hor. and Rev. B. F. Whit.
temOre, late member Of Congress from the
First Congressional District of South Carolina,
has been declared. By the unanimous vote OF
the United States House OF Representatives,
to be unworthy Of seat in that body; and,
whereas. the said Whittemore only escaped an
actual expulsion by resignng his seat. There
fere, he it
Nesoiveo. By the Republican party Of George
town County, in mass meeting assembled
!. That having betrayed the trust committed
to him, abused the confidence reposed in him,
and disgraced the position to which he was eX-
allied, for venal and mercenary purposes, he is
no longer worthy of the countenance and sup
port OF the Republican party.
2. That his virtual expulsion by Congress,
a large majority of whom were Radical Repub-
licans. is evidence "strOng as proofs Of Holy
Writ that he was guilty OF the disgraceIul Of
fences with which he was charged. and that
the action of that body was just, and should be
sustained by all good Republicans.
3. That to give countenance and support TO
Mr.. Whittemore, under these circumstances,
would be to censure and condemn the action
of the great leaders of the Republican party,
and to Justify the enemies Of manhood suffrage
in their assertion that the colored people OF the
South are dupes and victims Of llnscrupulous
and dishonest demagogues, and, therefore, nn-
tit to exercise intelligently and properly the
rights and privileges Of the ballot-box.
4. That we applaud the conduct Of the Re-
publican members of the Housed In rising above
party lines to expose and punish the crimes
and offences Oh one Of its members, and that
they are entitled to the cordial thanks of all
who have the interest and perpetulty of the
Republican party at heart for their manly and
patriotic course.
5. That copy OF this preamble and resolu-
tions be signed by the president, and counter
signed by the secretary Of this meeting. and
forwarded to the Speaker Of the House OF Re-
representatives. of the United States, with a
request that he lay them before that body.

A Plain Statement of Facts.
[rRoM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT

| FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.
COLUMBIA, May 2S.
In the light of the facts telegraphed by your
correspondent yesterday, giving the names of
the four signers Of SIMPSONS bail bonds-Den-
ny, Frazee, Solomon and Ettcr-lt appears
that your correspondent had been misnform,e:
ed and misled as TO who were the signers.
1t will be apparent to all-enemies no less
than iriends-that in matter wherein the ju-
dicial records must, in few days, exhibit the
| facts. your correspondent could not desire to
misstate the facts He desired the opposite
He had the information as coming from one
who had certain knowledge at The time, and
who knew whether the statement was true or
false. Your correspondent followed the best
lights before him, and was misled He was
afterwards the first of all parties in giving the
names Of the signers, and did this as soon as
the bond was returned 10 the clerk OF the
court Until that time the county officers,
who had official knowledge Of these facts, had
steadily refused to gipe information to our cti-
zens, members Of the press, or others.
Your correspondent has made all the amends
in his power-setting the matter right at the
earliest moment possible. In doing this, he
desires 10 call attention to u few points:
!. Why all this secresy as to the bondsm men
of Sampson from the 10th until the 9th of
May?
g. When the mistake was made Of the names
OF the bondsmen, why were not the true names
given then 1t was manifestly the best way
Of correcting the error.
3. When, on the 26th-ten days after the
signing OF the bond-one Of the editorial corps
of the Southern Guardian inquired of the trial
justice, in whose hands the papers then were,
whether Messrs. Scott and Stolbrand were on
the bond, why did that officer refuse to give
the information ? That is to say, since they
lcere not on The bond, what reason could exist
for refusing to answer q Legitimate and cour-
teous inquiry made for he aro,ced purpose OF
doing justice to the two persons mentioned
The Guardian, Of the 2sth, says: although we
stated positively ito the trial justice) that
our only intention was 10 state the
fact in our yesterdays issue as q mat
ter Of justice. to Messrs. Scott and Stol-
brand, if their names were not upon the bond,
or to confirm the allegation Of The CHARLES
TON NEWS if they were, all means Of ntorma-
ton were withheld from us. What may have
been the reason for wishing the truth sup
pressed at that particular juncture we are IN
able to understand"
4 While we-and I'VE" includes not only
your correspondent, but all citizens opposed 10
the Vaccinations Of rings-while we were
striving by every means to bring the truth Of
this matter TO light, they, the professed
friends of the Governor and his faction, were
bent upon concealing this same truth. On
which side, then, appears the desire to do
equal and exact justice to all parties con-
cerned CoRsAlR.

ANOTHER KU-KLUI UTRIGE.
From the Sumter News.l


On Friday last, at o'clock P. NJ. quite an

near the depot. In this town.

picnic and Sunday-school celebration.
In the midst OF the proceedings, shot was
suddenly heard, and ball came dying through
the window, and passed near the head Of u

leaped over three benches at one jump in her
Immediately the crowd rushed out shouting,
skill him . kill him."
Proceeding to the pump, about two hundred
Yards distant, from which the shot came, they
found that Tiller, the colored pump-minder,
was the guilty man. 1t appears that in hand
ling pistol it was accidentally discharged by
him, and so the matter ended.
Had Tiler been white man, it is probable
that before this the Radical papers would have
sounded through the land the startling news
that an attempt had been made in Sumter by
the bloody Ku-KluX to murder the whole con.

LAST spring there were 4 good many people
In this country who would hsye 1t that we
were going TO have = drouth this summer.
They were sure Of it, and some Of them did
not care whether they farmed much this sea-
son or not. Their argument was that q wet
season was generally followed by dry one,
and our time for the latter had come. 1t has
not been q wet season, so far, we are ready
TO admit, But we beg leave TO differ with those
who, having counted on . drouth, and not
liking TO be disappointed, are endeavoring TO
persuade themselves that the crops have been
ruined by dry weather. We have just returned
from q drive up the Neosho, where we saw
large fields OF good spring wheat, and excellent
oats. True, we saw other fields in which the
grain was thin and short, but far the greater
number were above ordinary. Fall wheat
was short, but the berry was No. l. That is
all stacked in first-rate order. II there had
been more rain during the last fortnight the
yield would have been larger than it will now
be. Still it is better the way It is than too
much rain would have made it. Now all the
grain Is about ripe, and is being harvested clean
ana saved entire. II the harvest had been a
wet one, the loss in saving would have more
than offset the deficiency arising from want OF
rain. In some sections we have visited at
other times the grain is not looking so well, but
still, take the country over, and the farmers
have no reason to complain. The corn is
generally looking first-rate, and if we get rain
soon, AS other sections around us are now
doing, we can rely on a big crop. The earth
is becoming very dry at present, and rain will
soon be needed for corn and potatoes. But
rain now would not help small grain, hut
would interfere with harvesting.

ALLEN AND DOWN.. j. NJ. Miller, OF Dow
creek. kindly called for US on the Fourth, and
carried us in his new spring wagon to the pic
mic on Allen creek. Then, after the exercises
OF the picnic were ended, we had a pleasant
ride home via. Dow creek. The landscape be-
tween these two creeks is exceedingly beauti-
full. The land is gently rolling, excellent for
farming, and the belts of dark green to be
seen from the divide indicate the course of the
numerous streams that irrigate this section
and flow into the Neosho.
A farm house here and there along the edge
or the wood, fields Of grain adjacent, cattle
browsing quietly on the hills, and not sound
Of unrest to be heard, combine to suggest ideas
of a perfect peace. Set In. a pleasant nook on
Dow creek is the Central school house, 43d
district, stone building, well finished, and 3
credit to any school district. Just across the
creek Is the well improved farm Of Mr.. Miller.
Passing up and down through his orchard, we
saw many trees comfortably full Of apples, the
Genneting's bearing more than any other va
riety- The frost, however, destroyed an i'm
mense weight OF bloom on other trees, and
curtailed the apple crop Of this locality very
seriously. Amer an hour spent In observa-
ton of Mr.. Miller's hedges, crops, stock, etc.,
we again took the road, and reached Emporia
at the close Of n very pleasantly spent day
Mr.. Miller will please accept our thanks, and
favor us with n sight of his countenance when.
ever he comes to town.
