A SENSATION Report. quite O
display Of capital letters and sensational
head lines, the Columbia Union, OF Mon
day, publisheS an acdonnt of Ku Klux
operations in the vicinity OF Fort Mills.
in this County, wherein it is stated that
party Of disguised men visited the re-
sidenoe, OF, Trial Justice O'Oonnell, but
not fadipg him at h4me, promised to
repeat the visit: Subsequently. and
opiy.a few days ego. the same parties. it
is believed, withof,t idisEuises,. again
visited Mr.. O'Oonnell's place. went into
the field where he was.at work, and after
making their threats, demanded that he
should resign the Office OF Triali j ustfde
Mr.. O'Oonneii for some time stontly re-
fused, but finding himself in their power,
and fearing their continued threats of
personal violence, finally yielded and
signed document drawn up by the
band, resigning the Office of Trial JUS
tice. This is substantially the state
ment made by the Union. OF the truth
of the assertions made we are unable to
speak; for after diligent inquiry, we
have been unable to learn word verify
ing the facts stated, We conversed with
gentlemen last Saturday direct from Mr.:
'O'Connell's neighborhood;4 and We feel
sure II such an occurrence had taken
place, these gentlemen would have mem
tionedit. We are not disposed to screen
such actions or their perpetrators from
the public; but in this case, with the
lights before us, we cannot but believe
the affair hos been, in some manner,
misrepresentea.- YoykoiNe Enquirer.

After sojourn Of two days in this city,
ex-President Davis left for Charleston
ION yesterday. Whilst here. Mr.. Davis
was the recipient Of many courtesies.
which, no doubt, were as agreeable to
him .as they were gratifying to those who
extended them. He was called upon by
number OF ladies and gentlemen; nor
did the young withhold the tribute Of
of their respect and regard. The mem
bers Of the Columbia Club extended to
him the hospitalities OF that body. At
tho concert at the Nickerson Honse. Mr..
Davis presence was acknowledged III
marked manner. The serenode given
after the concert was q pleasing incident
connected with Mr.. Davis visit to Co.
lumbia. A number of oitizens formed at
the Columbia Hotel, aud the procession.
headed Ivy LyBrand's excellent band.
proceeded to the Preston residence.
After some appropriate airs. Mr. Davis
appeared, and was enthusiastically
greeted. After moving through the
crowd and making many acquaintancea,
he was called ont. The ex-chief, erect
as ever, and looking as resolute as OF
old, made brief response. Avoiding
nll political allusions whatever. Mr..
Davis rendered his aokno wledgments for
the compliment paid him. and gave ex-
preston to those sentiments which, en-.
tertained by him as we'll in adversity as
prosperity, show the strength OF his man
hood and the nobility OF his nature. In
the social circle, Mr. Davis bears himself
with quiet, graceful and easy dignity.
But called out to address crowd, and
bis figure straightens up. He pnts the
soldier on, and the tones OF his voice
show themselves as strong apd firm as
when he stood Senator or the chosen
head of struggling Copfederacy. He
goes hence with the good wishes OF q |
large circle OF friends and admirers.

SUSBEAM.-Ihe greatest Of physical para
doxes Is the sunbeam. 1t is the most potent
and versatile force We have, and vet il behaves
Itself like the gentlest and most accommodate
ing. Nothing can fall softly or more silently
upon the earth than the rays of our great ID
minary-nOt even the feathery flakes OF snow
that thread their way through the atmosphere
as If they were too filmy to yield to the de-
mands of gravity like grosser things
The most delicate slip Of gold leaf. exposed
as target to the suns shafts, is not stirred to
the extent Of a hair, though an infants faint
est breath would set it into tremulous motion.
The tenderest human oTgans-the apple of the
eye-though pierced and buffeted each day by
thousands OF sunbeams, suffers no pain during
the process, but reJoices in their sweetness and
blesses the useful light
Yet few of those rays, insulating them
selves into mass Of iron, like the britannia
Tubular Bridge, will compel the closely knit
particles TO separate, and will move the whole
enormous fabric with much ease as n giant
would n straw.
The play of those beams upon our sheets Of
water, lifts up layer after layer into the atmos-
phere and hoists whole rivers from their beds,
only to drop them again in SHOWS upon the
plains. Let the air drink in little more sun
shine at one place than another, and out of il
springs the tempest or the hurricane. which
desolates u whole region in its lunatic wrath
The marvel -, that power which is Capable
OF assuming such a diversity OF forms, and
producing such stupendous results, should
come to us In so gentle, so peaceful, and so
unpretentious a manner. - British QtidTtxTly

THE EDITOR WHO WANTED A DoG.-Au editor
in Iowa advertised the other day that he would
take good dog in payment of one years sub.
scription for his paper. The next day forty
three dogs were sent to the office. The day
afterwards, when the news had spread out into
the country, four hundred farmers had sent two
dogs apiece by express, with eight baskets full
of puppies all marked G. o. d. In the mean
time the offer found its way into the neghbor-
ing States, and before the end OF the week, there
were eight thousand dogs tied up in the editor 5
front and back yards The assortment included
all the kinds from bloodhounds down to poodles.
A few hundred broke loose aud swarmed on the
starways and the entries, and stood outside the
sanctum and howled, and had fights, and shifted
under the crack of the door as if they were hun
cry for some editor. And the editor climbed
out OF the window, up the waterspont and out
on the comb of the roof, and wept. There was
no issue of the paper for six days, and the only
way the friends of the eminent journalist could
feed him was by sending lunch up to him in bal
looms. AT last somebody bought barrel Of
arsenic and three tons of beef, and poisoned the
dogs, and the editor came down only to find at
his desk a bill from the Mayor for $8 000 being
the municipal tax on dogs at 81 per head He
scribers now, and he doesn't want dog,
