HOW THE ELECTION IS TO BE
CARRIED.

Col. II. +. GRAHAM, OF Marion, the
new convert to Rsdcalism, h as become
involved in an ugly difficulty, in con-
nection with certain statements wbioh
tho Marion Crescent alleged were made
by him. The gentlemen upon, whom hs
called to disproyo the allegation all
unto in decl.ring its truthfulness.
In order to show how they propose to
"carry" the election, in the event of The
Reform movement being too strong, we
annex the following note, published in
tho Crescent Of the 14th inst, from Mr.
T. Fl. klRToN, and addressed to the
editor oftbat paper
Rev 4. Mitchell,
DEAR SIR: In reply to your ote l
will state that Col. Graham told me that
tho Republicans would be sure to oarry
tho elections by largo majority. Ho
said that the Governor would appoint
his Own friends as Commissioners Of
elections, and that the Commits ers
would appoint Radicals as maungcrs.--
Col. Graham got the law and road to me
how that the managers could keep the
ballot box ten days after. tho election.
He said tlie managers can take out Car
penter votes, and put In Scott votes,
and dontyou know they'll doit.' He
said that Scott wus fool iP no did not

WEDNESDAY, SEPT. Fl.
A. A, GILBERT .EDlT or
THE Sumter Wutchman has By
.tar the largest circulation (es1oe-
cially IN the Surrounding country)
ofany paper published IN Sumter,
and aCQs established Sn 1850.
THE TEST, IN NORTH CAROLINA.

The Radicals of Newbcrry having put
report in circulation to the effect that
the white people ofNorth Carolina, now
TINT the election was over and the State
carried by the conservatives, were turn
ing their backs upon the colored peo-
ple and ignoring their rights, two col.
ored men, one a reformer and the other
Scottite, were sent by the citizens Of
the county to North Carolina, to ascer-
tain the truo state of the case.
The Newberry Herald says they re-
turn tho gratifying intelligence "that
there is not a word of truth in the
abominabls reports which have been
trumped up by the Radical party" They
say that "it is all fabrication-that
they are highly pleased with the con-
dtion Of affairs, and have been treated
with great confederation and Kindness,
by white and colorcd."
Since the above was written, a full
statement of these colorcd mon has ap-
pcared, over their own signatures,
which will be found on another COLI
umn.
We have conversed with prominent
citizen of Sumter; who travelled, recent
", through North Carolina and Virginia
He says thut tho colored people express
great delight with the situation Of af-
fairs. In North Carolina, prominent
colored men who actod with the Radi.
Gals, now declare their satisfaction at
tho defeat of the party. That it has
brought about better feeling among
the two races. That they now breathe
different element. That hope revives
and energy springs up, aud that the
Radical party can never again com mand
their sympathy or support.
A similar degree of satisfaction is OK
pressed by the whites. They feel that
the great enemy Of the peace, good
will and prosperity of the two races has
been measuEably stripped Of power, and
that better day has dawned upon the
country. That effort aud sacrifice were
necessary to bring the change, but that
ths good which has resulted, more than
compensates for these.

resistance on the part Of foreign troops

four hours delay in order that he might
bring additional influence to bear on
the Pope. Cardarnas yielded so far Us
not to attack Rome in twenty four

Governor WarmOth,

The Vidslia Herald, the ably conducted
official journal of Concordia parish, edited
by Judge Wade H. Housh, has an editorial
relating to Governor Warmoth, from which
we make the following extract:
With few exceptions, his numerous ap-
pointments of men to office have been good
and have reflected credit on his administra-
ton of the affairs of this State. We are
one of his appointees, and it was through
his firm stand in our behalf that we were
triumphant. and we will never go back on
friend who has been faithful to US until we
have clear and indu bitable evidence that he
is no longer our friend. We believe Gov.
ernOr Warmoth to be our friend.
1t is true that he did refuse to give US the
public printing, after having promised to do
so. but his reasons for refusal, if hot salts.
factory to US, certainly we're very cogent
He had ascertained that the public print
ing was costing the State double what it had
ever heretofore done, and he had made up
his MUD to make a retrenchment in that
branch of the public service. We thought
and still think we had stronger claims than
many others who had received contracts for
but if he lad denied US, and tif-
teen or twenty others who had received
contracts for the same. we think that he
would have done the State a good service,
and we would never have thought less Of

RECORDER WEBER's CoURr.-Samuel
Thomas, for his Irregularities, had to pay a
fine of $40.
Mr.. and Mrs. Burgess, for interfering with.
and obstructing and preventing an officer
of the Second Justice Court from the execu-
ton of a judicial process, were sent to the
First District Court.
Some ten or twelve of the residents of the
Fourth District have been reported by
ward superintendent. E. P. Ducolange,
charged with leaving tAeir offal tubs and
barrels upon the banquettes after half-past
nine A. N. They have been fined each S..
The intention of the Conucil is that the
receptacles should not be left upon the ban
quotes after half past nine, whether the
carts come round to take the garbage off or
not, but should the contractor fail to have
it removed by the designated hour. then he
should be reported to the ward Superin-
tendent, or to the Administrator of Improve
ments, General West, whose duty it is by
law to deduct from the pay due to the delin-
quent contractor fifty dollars for each and
every offense. If the people will render
their assistance to the officers by reporting
the contractors when they fail to perform
their duty, we may look for a cleaner condi-
ton of our city. 1t is for the interest OF
every citizen to render his assistance, for a
healthy city is essential to the whole popu-
latiOn.

BUSINESS NOTICES.

WASHES New FURNISHING GOODS The
amount of taste displayed by MIR. B. L.
Walshe, No. 10 Canal street, in the selec-
ton of his spring stock this season, has been
a matter of considerable comment among
the habitues of Canal street during the past
week. Such. beautiful cravats and ties,
splendid undergarments, gloves, handker-
chiefs, ETC., rarely has been seen on this
side Of the Atlantic. while his prices are so
reasonable that those splendid goods are
placed within the reach of every one. Be.
sides the above named goods, Mr.. Walshe
has also a general assortment of seasonable
goods for children, which parents would do
well to go and inspect. Mr.. Walshe be-
lieves in quick sales and small profits. His
goods are always as stylish as any to be
found n the country. and having been
manufactured expressly for his salss, are re-
liable il every respect. Go and look at
them

Mace and Allen.

The Chicago Tribune, abiding TO the re-
cent prize fight, says:
1t has been established that of these two
Englishmen-Mace and Allen Mace, who
was already champion of England, is now
champion of America, and will so continue
until he is either forgotten or whipped. We
say champion of America with some reserva-
lions. We have several THOUSAND grizzlies
in the Sierras, any one of whom would whip
Mace IL the first round and eat him in the
second. We have one thing which would
whip Mace quicker even than a grizzly, and
that IS honest work. But of all the devices
invented by the ingenuity of man for living
without work, We rejoice that there is one
IN which every person who attempts to live
by it is sure to get just what he descrves-a
swift and terrible punishment.
There are other classes beside prize
fighters who aim to live without work, but
they don't walk into the ring and take their
mauling, as they ought to be made to. We
would like to look down on a Mace and
Allen fight As blow after blow is given to
each by the other-as one gets ais smeller
erased, and another has his peppers shut,
and the first gets stove in under the bread
basket, and the second is knocked down like
bullock by an axe. we should smile and
say, Good. boys; that's just what all decent
people think you both deserve. Would that
all who try to get living out of the foolish
anc vicious, or in any other way than by
squarely earning it, were sure of the same
kind Of pay"

ure, through our firemen here, and other

the earliest opportunity of extending to you,
on behalf of our people, hearty welcome
to Pennsylvania.
All true patriots can not but witness with
glad emotions the fraternal union OF South
ern and Northern tiremen, on our national
anniversary, in that place where clusters the
dearest associations connected with our ma
TONS history. 1t bears q Specification, to
my mind, OF more than ordinary import, as
nothing will more eminently conduce toward
cementing the ties that should bind us to-
gether as people, than such An interchange
OF fellowship as is contemplated between
the fremen OF New Orleans and Philadel.

Our Fire Department here have extended
you an invitation to pay them visit,
which, l trust, you may find it in your
power to accept, and thereby afford me the
honor and pleasure of taking each one OF
you by the hand and welcoming you in per.
son to the capital of Pennsylvania.
Hoping that everything will combine to
make your visit a pleasant one among US,
and that you may bear with you to your
homes again the warmest of feelings for our
State and people,
am, with regard,
Yours, very truly,

General West, tie Administrator Of In
provements, invites proposals for the pur-
chase of the earth now deposited on the
line of the Carroilton avenue canal, between
the New Canal and Canal Carondelet. This
is good chance to buy the material 10 fill
up lots. He also invites proposals for the
privilege of hauling away all the street
scrapings to be collected in the city IN the
First and Second Wards, from the first day
of June to the thirty-frst of December;
these scrapings are valuable for filling lots.
He also invites proposals for the purchase
of the earth now being deposited on the line
of Hagan avenue canal, between Common
street and the Blenvielle draining machine
We like the idea of making merchandise of
the street scrapings, which are much more
valuable either for fertilizing purposes or
for filing up lots than for deposit on the
streets, where bad is made infinitely worse.
That which has cost the city large sum of
money to remove can now be sold to an adj
vantage where it accumulates on the
streets, and We predict spirited rivalry in
the bids.

Perfect harmony does not prevail in the
Democratic ranks, and this is specimen of
their little family jars from the shelf of the
Alexandria Democrat:
The Democracy of Louisiana should re.
member that the leader of the "Third
Party" which attempts to force the Demo-
cratic party to disband its organization, is
the New Orleans Times, which grew up
under Banks, the robber of the men, and
Butler, the insulter of the women of Lou
iaiana; that it has the same editor now as
then, and that, even though the establish
ment has "roped in" the oldest Democratic
editor in the State" it can offer no satisfsc.
tory reason why the Democrats should sell
house Company and other robbers Of the
people of Louisiana.

The st. Louis Democrat Of Wednesday
says:
The Antelope sustains the reputation for
speed Of the kind whose name she bears.
She has arrived from Dubuque with lis GEO
bushels of grain in her barges, making the
trip in ffty-seven hours. This is probably
the fastest barge time on record, and has
not often been beaten by the packets. The
grain was all consigned to Chadbourne g.
Forster, of this city, and would have filed
