p~ On Sunday last, o FIRE occurred on the
premises of Mr. Hugh Gregg, near Hollands
Store, causing most distressing casualty. 1t
appears that negro woman and three children
lived in cabin near Mr.. Greggs residence, and
that willis the white family were at dinner, the
woman went to the spring, and left her three
children, one Of them an infant only seven
months old. The cabin took FIRE during her
absence, and the two oldest children gave the
alarm, bnt before assistance could be rendered,
the fire had made such rapid progress as to for
bid the rescue of the infant. Our informant,
among others, attempted to save the child, and
although he got inside the cabin, the flames
drove him out, and prevented the accomplish
ment of this extraordinary effort to rescue q
human being from horrible death.

COUNTY TAxEs.-As some misapprehension
exists, in consequence of our remarks last week
on the State taxes, we will state that the Coun-
ty Commissioners of Anderson have levied a
tax of two mills on the dollar, or twenty cents
en- every hundred dollars worth of property,
which, added to the State tax of ninety cents,
will make the aggregate State and County tax
of $1.10, instead of rs cents last year. We
were speaking last week Of the amount author
ised to be levied by the Legislature, which is
three mills for county purposes; and until the
paper vent to press, We were not informed as to
the action of the County Commissioners, as
above stated, in placing the tax at two mills.
We congratulate the people of Anderson upon
the low rate of taxation for county purposes,
but the exorb;tant demand of the State admits
of no congratulations.

Death of an Aged Lady.

Mrs. Elizabeth Emerson, widow of an old
Revolutionary soldier, died at the residence of
her son-in-law, Mr.. John Carpenter, in this
County, on the 29th of November last. She
was born in Ireland on the 18th of August, ITO,
and was consequently upwards of one hundred
years old at the time of her death. Her pa
rents removed to this country when she was
quite child, and the last sixty years of her
life were spent in Anderson county.
During the past year we have recorded the
deaths of three very aged residents of this
county, and all of them were natives of Ireland.

A Candid Admission.

@@0A--AssS~~'
The Charleston Daily Rep,blican, although
claiming that the Radicals could hsve carried
the State under the most stringentelection law,
speaks as follows of the manner in which its
own party conducted affairs in the last election
"It is notorious that in certain portions of the
State there were such frauds, rendered perfectly
easy by the existing law, as should make soutn
Carolina blush all over, and which should con-
sign scores of people to the penitentiary."
AS Gov. Scott appointed the Commissioners
of Election, and in nearly every instance Sc
lected his bindest partisans as these Commls-
sioners generally agreed upon their Radical as
sociates to manage the election, and as the law
permitting such frauds was enacted by Legis-
lature thoroughly and essentially Radical, it
it seems to US that that the above candid ad-
mission is tolerably severe upon the Radical
party Of this State. 1t istrue, nevertheless, and
fully sustains the allegations of the anti-Radi-
cal press and orators, made during the cam
paign, as to the real intent and meaning of the
general election law. We fully agree with the
Republican that "it is the loosest and rottenest
law ever framed by any State for the condnct
of an election" and We are glad to notice that
efforts are being made to amend this infamous
Law, at least to the extent of making show of
fairnes, and impartiality in the conduct of fu-
ture elections.
As to sending scores of persons to the Peni-
tentiary for the innumerable frauds committed
in the late election, we are quite easily satisfied
on that point, and would willingly consent to
that benifcent institution being filled with the
adherents of the Radical party, who enacted
the law and perpetrated the frauds. Only the
pardoning power ought 10 be restricted before
the next election, to make the reform effectual
and lasting.
Since writing the above, We have seen a
brief outline of the amendments proposed by
Senator Corbin to the election law. The ar
rangements for conducting the election meet
with our hearty approval, as all parties will
have fair and equal chance, but We think the
Legislature ought to provide more effectual
means to prevent fraudulent and illegal voting.
In this county, for example, there has been no
complaint as to the Commissioners and mana
gers, but the tendency to commit fraud by lille
gal voting was manifest throughout the elec-
ton. Although more expensive, perhaps, the
system of registration adopted first by the mill
tary is far preferable to the presentmode, where
there is every temptation to secure additional
voters by false swearing. 1t is almost impossi-
BILE, on the day Of election, to detect and pre-
vent persons under age from voting, and We
would like to see the law 30 amended that am
pie opportunity will be given to place check
upon such as allow their zeal for party to over
ride conscience and moral responsibility. Un-
scrupulous politicians take advantage of the
present law to induce Others to commit perjury,
and the safe guards of wise legislation will de-
prive them of any such opportunity.
