How to Ensure a Ea,r Election,

The State elections IF October 10, will be
held under the general election law, approved
March l, 1870. That law authorizes the
c rnor to appoint three commissioners of
elections for each County, which commission
ors designate the precincts, and appoint three
managers of elections for each precinct in the
County for which they arc appointed. The
managers arc required to deliver the poll
lists, and the boxes containing the ballots, to
the respective commissioners of elections with
in three days after the day Of election. These
remain in the Keeping of the commissioners
until the Tuesday following the election,
whom the commissioners count the vote of
each precinct Within ten days from this
time the commissioners must make State
mcnt Of the result.
For ten days, therefore, the ballot boxes,
and the poll lists, are in the exclusive custody
of the commissioners of elections. These
commissioners can, if they choose, so manipu-
late the ballots as to elect, or defeat, whom
they please. Their opportunity for fraud
and trickcry is as complete as the most vcnal
politician can desire. Nor has any pains
been taken to appoint, as commissioners,
those men only who enjoy the confidence of
both political parties. Governor Scott, to the
best Of our knowledge, has picked up his
commissioners without regard to their intclli-
gence or their trust worthincss. The fruits
of months of labor. the dcstnies of South
Carolina, arc in the keeping of body of men
whose chief, if not only, qualification is n
blind devotion to the interests of Scott and
his ring
This is the position of affairs, and it is one
which causes grave uneasiness to all who de-
sire, as we do, peaceful and fair election -
The Reform Party arc prepared to abide by
tho verdict of the grand jury of the people.
If the reformers are fairly and squarcly beaten,
they will stand it like mon, but they do not
mean to be cheated out of their victory, by
election commissioners or any other Of Scott s
officials. This feeling is doubtless entertain
cd by many Of the more decent members Of
the Scott party. But whether it is not, we
have the right to demand, in behalf of the
Union Reform Party, that all reasonable sc
curlty be given that the election Shall be fair,
and that the vote shall be fairly counted anu
reported. Governor Scott fatty declined to
appoint one commissioner in each County
from the ranks of tho Reform Party. This,
in itself, suggests an intention to tamper with
the vote From Scott however, we expect
no redress. Whatever consideration and fair
dealing We receive must como from men who
have more liberality and more sagacity than
are possessed by Governor Scott. - Charleston

as the issue OF the Franco. Prussian war
now appears to depend on the defence of Par
is, it will be of interest to consider whether
there are sufficient grounds for expecting that
the capital will be seriously defended, and
if so, whether she will be able to hold out long
enough to give time for completely organizing
the military nsurrcction of the French pco
pie. 1t is admitted on all hands that such
organization is making rapid and thorough
progress. 1t is now nearly week since

obscyyant English friend who returned yestcr
day from ten days ramble in Central France,
speaks with the greatest admiration of the
spirit, courage and patriotism &c everywhere
noticed; the whole population is arming and
driling;" and he proceeds to observe that
"a country like France is not to be conquered
even by million of wcl,traincd and well
armed soldiers belonging to one of the most
warlike of European races" Alison remarks
that the French excel all nations in their
faculty for rapid military organization 1t
is generally admitted, even by Prussian wr;
tcrs, that six weeks drill sulices to convert
recruit into an efficient soldier. and the Gardc

The Effort Making to Rebuild the VIII
iington Episcopal Church.
TO TIE EDITOR OF TIE NEWS.


ABBEvILLE C., H., April q.
The city papers some days ago noticed the
fact that on Friday, the 18th, the Episcopal
Church building at Wilmington, in this district,
under the pastoral charge of Rev. o. ]. Porcher,
was consumed by fire.
The AbbevIle Press and Banner expressed the
sense OF this entire community, in the following
paragraph: at was clearly the work Of an incen'
diary, but we have heard no probable cause as
signed which could have prompted the act. Mr..
Porcher is one OF the most popular men In his
section-a sincere pious Christian gen tleman,
and Jealous pastor, and equally beloved by
whites and blacks. oWe extend to him and his
congregation our heartfelt sympathy
Let me add to this, that the church which has
been thus wantonly destroyed was erected en-.
tirely by the personal efforts and almost en-
ti.ely by the private means OF Mr.. Porcher him.
SELF and that for years past he has minlstered In
1t without compensation. to the spiritual needs o!
a devoted little congregation, gathered by him
principally from among the humber classes ol
our people. In the same spirit viii ich years age
prompted him to build, he has already, with di
minished means, but with undlminished faith
set himself to work to rebuild. The object Of this
communication is to inform his many friends and
the many friends Of his schoo! and church tina,
every effort Is being made to assist him. Contri
buttons, however small, or pledges to pay at the
end Of the year, may be sent to me or to Mt.

would like TO touch the feelings OF the COM
missioners Of roads for the County Of Beaufort,
If feelings they have. l have been informed that
they are John Hum, NJ. Pollistee and Captain
Tonkin-John HUM chairman Of the board. They
meet three times per week for consultation, and
frequently there is no business TO transact. They
have $500 per diem and mileage. In former
times, once per quarter was deemed quite SUM-
cient b,a then there ,c0S no pay, and the roads an
bridges were kept in perfect order as the commits
sioners were responsible for all damage to
persons or vehicles. But now the roads and
bridges are totally neglected, and almost impas-
sable: they are frequently in such n condition
that you are.compelled to drive through private
property to reach your destination. The road
from Coosawhatche, Glllisonville and the upper.
country will soon be impossible, as the main
bridge on Pocotaligo causeway is about to fall ln
and has only been kept up during the past by
private subscription Of the citizens in the neigh
borleod. Those living in the upcountry, who
are compelled to attend court in Beaufort, are
almost cut of by the condition Of the roads. ye
would call the attention Of the proper authorities
to this matter, as 1t is notorious fact that the
taxes levied for roads and bridges are made
away with by those having them In charge.

WASHINGTON, May Q.
The Supreme Court Of the United States has
decided In the case Of the United States against
Edward Paadleford, appealed from the Court OF
Claims. The appeal was brought before the Court
OF Claims under the Captured and Abandoned
Property act OF March i2, 1858, for half the pro-
ceeds, paid into the treasury, Of twelve hundred
and ninety-three bales Of cotton captured at Sa-
vannsh, turned over to treasury agent, and
sold under that act. Tie court says, in conclu'
sion: aIt follows that at the time Of the seizure
Of the petitioners property he was purged Of
whatever offence again st the laws Of the United
states he had committed, by the acts men
toned in the finding, and relieved from any
penalty which he might have incurred;it follows
further, that II the property had been seized be-
fore the oath was taken, the faith OF the govern
ment was pledged to It's restoration upon the
taking OF the oath in good faith. We cannot
doubt that the petitioners right to the property
In question at the time Of the seizure was perfect,
except as against the acts OF the military COM
MASTERS, and that it is made absolutely perfect
, by pardon, Notwithstanding the seizure; but it
has been suggested that the property was cap

ceeds having been paid into the treasury Of the
United States the petitioner is without remedy In
the Courtof Claims, unless proof is made that
he. gave no aid or. comfort to the rebellion.
The sufficient answer is that after the pardon
NO offence connected with the rebellion can be
Imputed to him. Hin Other respects the petition
er made the proof, which under the act entitled
him to a decree for the proceeds Of his property
the law makes the proof Of pardon acomplete sub.
stitute for proof that he gave no aid or comfort
to the rebellion. A different construction would
as 1t seems to us, defeat the manifest intention Of
the proclamation, and Of the act OF Congress
which authorized 1t. Under the proclamation and
the act, the government became trustee, holding
the proceeds Of the petitioners property for his
benent, and having been fully reimbursed for al
expenses incurred in that character, loses moth
ing by the judgment which simply awards to
the petitioner what is his own. These views re.
quire the atsrmance OF the judgment Of the court
OF claims, and It is accordingly affirmed.
The case Of Knox vs. Lee will come up for re-
argument at the October term Of the Supreme
Court. 1t is question Of sequestratlon under
the Confederate law. Judge Davis, Of Texas, IN
his decision, charged the jury that payment could
be made in United States legal tender notes. The
dfr,culty arose upon this instruction, and the ar
gument has been ordered, because 1t opens up
the whole question Of the constitutionalty Of the
Legal Tender act.
