AFFAIRS IN OCONEE.
What is Thought Of Orr's Letter-A
Grand Radical Blunder.
trRox AN OCCASIONAL CORRESPONDENT

trRoM AN OCCASIONAL CORRESPONDENT
WALHALLA, August 2s.
The following will serve to let you know
what is thought ofJudse Orr here, where he
was once the most popular man in the State:
On the night of the 25th, some person or
persons got an old pair Of pants and an old
shirt, and stuffed it, and by some means made
a head to it. In his hand was piece Of paste
board, upon which was in large letters: "Died,
traitor, J. L. Orr" This was tied up to .:
HORSEBACK, In the middle of the street, and
then fred. Some of his Radical brethren that
night were very ashy about 1t, one OF them
saving that those ID rascals had burnt
Judge Orr. The next morning he repeated 1t,
when q young man stepped up and SAID ne
was one, and struck Rad. IN the face, When ne
Young man was too quick for him, and got his
first. After little quarrel, the breakfast oeu
rang and some of the party went into Dreak-
fast, and left a few Radicals outside.
Judge Orr was always suspected Of belong
ing to the Scott Ring; but since he wrote that
letter, every one is down upon him. AS SAID
before, he was once the most popular man IN
the up-country, but the people lost all conf
dence in him since 1862. When he ran tor Gov
ernor some years back, but very very few OF fhis
regiment even voted for him. Out ofGconee,
then Pickens County, he had four companies
In his regiment; and when he LETT 1t to take ms
seat in the Confederate Congress, the whole
regiment had their doubts about MIN. IL Was
reported that he said If the reglment "oatS its
elect him colonel, he would always stay Win
the regiment; that should he be promoted. ne
would keep it with him.
The Radical party miss the mark when they
think that Judge Orr will bring recruits into
their ranks from the upper counties 1t is the
best thing that could be done to help the Re-
form party, as heard men say that If nothing
else would keep them from turning Radical
that would. They would not belong to party
that he belonged to. The Reform movement
is gaining ground in Oconee. You will hear
from US in October. Crops are splendid. More
corn will be made this year than there nag
been in twenty years before. 1t is supposed
that the corn trade will open this fall At iorty
cents per bushel. HOPE.

SOUTHERN LIFE, MENPnIs.-We have not

length produced a gratifying effect on the IN
surance companies OF the South. They are a.
ready beginning TO rival Eastern companies in

IN the movement, and its stock is now ali paid

OF their business throughout the State, so as to
bring within its scope and compass that ample
average which renders the mortality Of a fife

the right tack, and We feel bound to cheer
them on, as they have only to persevere in
