Outrages i'm South Carolina.

We copy this from the Louisville Courier
Journal, Democratic journal:
NEW YORK, March l0.-A dispatch from
Columbia, South Carolina, last night, says a
large body Of men, armed, from East Ten
nessee and North Carolina, made their APP
pearance in York and Chester counties, and
fighting had been going on for several days.
kaior Whitehead, of the Eighteenth In
fantry, stationed at Yorkville, arrived this
morning, and reports that more outrages
had been perpetrated in those counties since
Saturday night by both the colored militia
and Ku-Klux organizations. On Monday
Captain Williams, a mulattO, commanding a
company of militia, was taken and hanged,
near Carmel Hill, and a number of his men
inhumanly whipped. The negroes retaliated,
and since then fighting has been continuous.
Major Whitehead reports that the negro
militia company, commanded by Williams
was defeated on Monday night and fed to
his camp at YOrkville. He disarmed them
and now reports to the Governor for orders
Governor Scott will to-day proclaim mar
tial law in York and Chester counties, and
has telegraphed to President Grant anC
General Terry, at Louisville, asking fol
troops. Pending their arrival the Governor
will send Il regiment OF militia. under com
petent officers, to restore order, if possible
The iveliest times are anticipated in thu
northern part of the State for the next two
weeks.

The New York Standard says: at is
reported that negotiations have been opened
with Winnie Ream for the execution of the
Tweed statue, which is to adOrn the park.
The severe criticism to which Miss Ream's
first work has been subjected in this city
render her somewhat indispOsed to under
take a work which would doubtless stimu-
been suggested to her, however, that Mr.
Tweed and Warren Leland shall make
alternate sittings for the statue, then, when
it is completed, if it does not look like one
of them, it probably will like the other In
any case the critics will be silenced on the
point of likeness, and will probably treat
the work with civility."

On the 18th instant gang OF men In the employ

the work of laying down q gas pipe on one Of the
