Twenty-six of the most prominent

sioner, United States Assessors, Pro.

signatures the following letter:
SPARTANBURG, s. O., Sept. z.
To Hon. John Scott, Chairman of Ku-
Klux Committee;
We, the undersigned citizens of said
State and county, having seen through
the newspapers that you had received
statements and affidavits that Outrages
upon various citizens had been COM
mitted in this county since the COM
left said county, and that you had
therefore commanded the issuing Of a
proclamation declaring martial law in
this county, feel constrained to make
the following statement: 1--WE have
made diligent inquiry, and have been
unable to hear of a single outrage hav-
ing been committed in this county
since your committee left it. On the
contrary, the county is in a state of
profound peace and quiet"
The Spartan, in publishing the
above, says ''thst this should be suffi-
cient to prove to the mind of Senator
Scott that he has been imposed upon
by communications and affidavits,
upon which be founded his statement
made to the President, and his recon-
mendatiOn in favor of martial law"
We learn that leading Radicals here
admit the truth of the above letter.

CoRoNER's INQUEST.
The Coroner summoned a jury to-
day IN the case Of the Louisville and
Nashville railroad accident Of last
night, but after swearing in the jurors
they adjourned till tOmOrrOw. 1t is
said the accident was caused by the
engineer Of the South bound train,
which ran into the cars Of the other |
train before they got On the switch, |
and not stopping his train in time |
when he reached the station. 1t is
also said he whistled down brakes and |
his engine sooner than usual |
but his engine was new and unusually |
large and a heavy one, which he ran |
for the first time, and the momentum |
carried the train considerably beyond |
the point at which il would have |
under ordinary circum-
stances.

TAMMANY.
The Herald to the RssoHe-Ths Party States
Being Made Up.

NEW YORK, September S.-The
Herald, which has had but little to
say on the Tammany frauds, in an
editorial leader to-day thinks that the
attacks in the press upon the city Off
.cials are founded on personal spite
and disappointment, and are made
partly from business motives. It
thinks that all the parties who have
held sway in the city during the past
year have been guilty of plunder, and
that the present power OF Tammany
was attained through the O-OperatiOn
of Republicans. 1t asks for the resig-
nation Of Tweed and Connolly; says
that crisis has come in city affairs
au6 the history of Tammany, which
cannot be bridged over by expedients,
and which the influence of party or
CARNATIONS cannot avert; and that a
reorganization Of political elements is
demanded by the situation.
There are reports that the Citizens
Committee have laid plans to get a
case against the city authorities before
She United States Court, in case there
is a dissolution of the injunction by
Judge Barnard.
The decision Of the Court Of Appeals
referred to yesterday, it is thought, will
necessitate q new choice. at the fall
elections, for Comptroller, Aldermen,
Corporation Counsel and other officers
OF minor consequence. Parties affect
ed by the decision are commencing TO
get ready for the situation. Some Of
the TsD1many aspirants for offices to
be voted upon in the fall are already
beginning TO experience trouble. In
the Sixth Ward, Thomas J. Creamer
appears 10 have presumed that the
promise OF his nomination for Senator
bv the Tsmmany leaders would, as a
uatter-of course, secure his election;
but be now finds that the strength Of
fSpaosing candidates leaves his chances
in some doubt.
The action Of the Citizens Commit
tee. in excluding reporters from its
Eneetings, is recetv d with dissatisfac-
tion. ii is thought that an investiga-
ton of what is alleged to be secret
frauds should have no secresy about
its own proceedings.

MIA, the Catholic representative from
Bavaria, to whom the Catholic party
of Germany have looked as the cham
pion of their battles in behalf of the
Holy See, has been replaced by Count
Trautmansdorf, who Ia a partisan of
Dollinger. This nomination produces
a deep feeling of discomfort in the
Vatican. The new church party ac-
cept 1t as a signal triumph of their
principles. Trautmansdorf has always
been hostile to France, especially
during the late imperial rule.

Railroad.

CHATTANOOGA, September s.
Chancellor Key. to day, on applica-
fjon Of the Attorney for the State OF
Alabama, gave q nat, turning the
Alabama sad Chattanooga Railroad
.ard rolling stock in Tennessee over
h John II. Gindratt, Receiver OF

.his decision, the Chancellor stated
that II the property OF the road, IN
charge Of a Receiver Of another State,
was attsched within his jurisdiction,
he would release the property, and he
exgected a like amjty and courtesy
from the courts OF other States. 0lnd-
ratt gave bonds signed by Gov. Lind
say, Of Alabama, for SSO0,O 900, and Is
now ia possession of the road, rolling
stock, machine shops and depOts OF
the Alabama and Chattanooga Rail-
rOad ia Tennessee. The only obstacles
nov to the running Of the road, are
the attachments in Dade county, Ga.
On application of the Receiver, q case
similar TO that just decided, will be
heard by Judge ParrOtt, at Trenton,
g. September 18th, and will un-
doubse6iy be decided in a similar
manner. so that trains may be ex-
'Oeefed 70 run on the road by Septem-
ber 20fh. The greatest satisfaction
prevails at the prospect OF the running
OF the road. 1t will be perfectly sale
for the State TO run the ROAD, as all
parties are anxious to enjoy It's bene-
its.
