SOUTH CAROLINA
HoFrIbis 0utFagss -esniIausd Fighting at
YsrkviIIs-"Chass Gene Again

NEW YoEK, March 10.--A dispatch
from Columbia, !. c., last night, says
a large body Of men, armed, from
East Tennessee and North Carolina,
have made their appearance IN YORK
and Chester counties, and lighting has
been going on several days. Major
Whitehead, of the Eighteenth infant
~, stationed at YOrkville, arrived
this morning, and reports that the
most horrible Outrages have been per-
Detrated in these counties since sat
urdav night by both the cOlOred
militia and Ku-KluX organization.
On Monday Captain Williams, mu-
lattO, commanding a company OF
militia, was taken and hanged near
Carmel Hill, and a number of his men
inhumanly whipped, as the negroes
related, and since then the fighting
has been continuous. Major White
head reports that the negro militia
company, commanded by Williams,
were defeated Monday night, and fled
to his camp at HOrkville. He dis
armed them, and now reports to the
Governor for orders. Governor Scott
will to-day proclaim martial law in
York and Chester counties, and has
teIegraphed President Grant, and
General Terry, at Louisville, asking
for troops. Pending their arrival, the
Governor will send a regiment Of
militia, under competent officers, to
restore order, if possible. The live
Iiest times are anticipated in the
northern part Of the State for the next
few weeks.

The Results Of the Late hurricane Further
Particulars.

ST. LOUIS, March 1O.-The losses in
East st. Louis by the tornado on
Wednesday were much exaggerated.
A more careful estimate places them
at about the following figures: Eleva-
tor, SIS, 900; Ferry Company, $40, 600
st. Louis aud Ndndalia railroad, $50, =
900 to $4,000 Southeastern railroad,
$4,000: Chicago and Alton, $50, 600 /;
Ohio and Mississippi, $50 900; Toledo
and Wabash, SO, 900 TO 500, 900.
The steamer MOllie Able is much
more seriously injured than at first
reported. she is almost stripped Of
her upper works, and $50, 600 will
hardly repair her.
The losses TO citizens cannot be ac-
cUrately given. Some sixty d yelling
houses, Of more or less value, were
either destroyed or damaged, and the
loss can hardly fall short of 100000.
The railroad companies are busy
repairing damages, and the citizens
are endeavOring to gather up the
remnants Of their houses and collect
their furniture together.
Reports from the country tell OF
more or less injury in the track Of the
tempest. In some localities the dam
ace was considerable. In Morgan
county, Illinois, houses, fences and
forests were blown down, and several
persons badly injured.

Ths Contest for the SsHat3 Be-
tween Bowen and RCDOn-
aId-A Scrub Race.

| Special to the APPEAL.l
LITTLE Rock, March 10.-The Leg
fsIative proceedings were not deemed
Of interest to-day.
IMPEACHMENT.
In the Senate, Mallory introduced a
resolution informing the managers of
impeachment in the case of Mcclure,
that the Senate was ready to proceed.
1t is believed that the case will be
tried and dismissed, as the action of
the present managers with ClaytOn's
impeachment, have dissipated all
hopes in the minds of the people that
they will make any effort to collect
evidence.
ENFRAECHIsENENT.
This morning, Clayton signed the
bill for the amendment Of the COnsti-
tuition, proposing to remove all pOlit-
ical disabilities. It remains to be
passed by the two Legislatures and
then submitted to a vote Of the people.
1t viii take four years to effect its OBJ
ject. It was generally supposed, from
the tenor Of ClaytOn'5 letter Of decii-
nation and his promises made before
his election to the Senate, that
he would call a Constitutional Con-
vention for this purpose, but this
is like keeping his word to the ear,
breaking it to the hope. It needed
only this to discover to the people Of
Arkansas, indeed to those of the
whole Union, the kind of man we
have for Governor. His promises to
leading Democrats here were Of the
most solemn character. Time and
again, he voluntarily assured them
that he was in favor Of speedy en-
franchisement, and that, if elected to
the Senate, he would do for Arkansas
what Senter has done for Tennessee.
He has gone back upon his word,
sacredly pledged, and henceforth must
stand condemned.
THE U. 6. sENAToRsHIP.
EZ-U United States Senator Mcdonald
and Judge Bowen arrived in the city
last evening. Both are pressing their
claims for the Senate. The former
relies mainly upon the Conservatives;
the latter is the tool of Clayton, and
as such bases his hopes Of success. It
is generally believed that there will be
no election. The Clayton party, am
informed, have been advised not to
vote, leaving a chance for Clayton in
two years. 1 believe the Constitution
Of the State does not permit the ap-
pointment Of Senator by the Governor,
only when vacancy occurs after the
adjournment of the Legislature, and
the Conservatives have little hope
of electing a Conservative at the pres
ent session.

The STORM
&c Effects at Fart Smiih-Oamags to
PfoBsriy-NB Lives Lost.

The Fort Smith Near Era Of the 9th
| February says:
This city was visited, on Thursday
night, by one Of the most terrific
storms that has occurred here for
many years. Ii came from a westerly
direction, and IN q short time after ten
O'Clock, il was raging in its fury, ac-
cOmpanied with vivid lightning, and
pouring a perfect torrent Of rain. The
strength OF the wind caused many
houses to shake and tremble as though
an earthquake was upon Us. Several
houses were unrOOfed, among them
F'ishback's brick building. The front
Of this building was blown off and fell
to the pavement below, completely
covering it, and the tin roof was
hurled from its place in one immense
roll, and dashed to the ground some
distance above the building, the rain
pouring into the building. The dam
age to this piece Of property will
amount to several hundred dollars.
The next was Rogers brick building.
The roof Of this building was blown ia
pieces, and scattered over the neigh
b0rhOOd, and some Of the gTIttering
was carried away by the wind in its
fury. The next that suffered was Sny-
der's brick building. The gable end
of this was blown down to the top
part of the upper windows, falling
with a terrible crash, and an out
building on the premises, used at one
time as a kitchen, and built of brick,
was thrown fat % the ground. DR..
Fields brick Office, just being erected,
and the brick work finished that
evening, suffered to the extent Of
having one side thrown down by the
wind; there being nothing but the
walls up, it did not suffer much.
Work has been commenced on these
buildings, and in few days viii be
completed. The new foundry build
ing, Just up and ready for covering,
was blown down and made a COM
plete wreck. The builders, Messrs.
Hoffman d Stephens, have gone to
work and are putting it up again.
Frame houses were damaged by the
storm, more or less, the boards being
dashed from their places, and flying
through the air. Several pOrches
were prOstrated. Fences were laid
fiat, and trees blown dOWu-such was
the strength of the wind. No lives
were lost, fortunately, and we are
glad to chronicle it. Dry goods boxes,
signs, sheds, ETC., were scattered and
thrown around prOmiscuOUsly The
storm ragged for only q short time and
then everything was still, and the
next morning the sky was clear, not
a cloud to be seen, the sun shining
bright, and giving the mind thoughts
of spring morning.

IN cHANcERY.
The LsuisviI aEd Nashville Railroad
Company EFloinsd.

In the Louisville Ch8ncery Court,
says the Louisville Ledger, Mr.. James
Speed has filed a petition asking a
preliminary Injunction, restraining
and prohibiting the President and Dj-
rectOrs Of the Louisville and Nash
vile Railroad Company from paying
the sum Of $50, OO0, by which the Pres
ident and Directors engage to pay out
of the means of the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad Company, two
thirds of the cost OF changing the
gauge of the Louisville, Cincinnati
and Lexington road from its present
width TO four feet eight and a half
inches, including the cost OF the
change Of rolling stock Of the Louis
vile, Cincinnati and Lexington road.
Two -fifths Of the sum Necessary TO
change said gauge will be not less
than $50, 600. MIR. Speed, the ps-
titiOner, claims that such an
appropriation is without right
or legal authority, and a
breach Of the trust cOnhded to the
President and Directors Of the Louis
vile and Nashville Railroad Com
pauy. He states that he has protested
dsdlu5s Lut uet ga tlc AydA 1AL-o7
which the said directors hold in trust.
He says that he is advised, and be-
Iieves it to be true, that the President
and Directors. notwithstanding the
protest, will, unless restrained by due
due process Of law, pay over said sum
to the Louisville, Cincinnati and Lex
ington Railroad Company, under the
contract, out of the means of the
Louisville and Nashville Company,
and for the illegal and unauthorized
purpose aforesaid. Mr.. Speed alleges
that he is a stakeholder in the COM
pany, and that the President and Di-
rectors have no power or right to the
assets and effects OF the company, eX'
/ cept such as are contained in the
| charter and its amendments.

CONGRESSIONAL.
PrB0ssdlHgs Of the House and Seaate Of
the r rty Second Congress.

WASHINGTON, D. c., 'gMarcb TO-
HOUSe.-JOint resolution providing
for animals specially imported for
breeding purposes, free Of duty, from
! the Dominion. Pssse1.
A resolution to appoint a Select
Committee Of five members on the
subject of the construction and main
tenance of a complete and effective
system of leVfes on the Mississippi
river, with authority to sit during the
recess, and that there be no expense
10 the Government in connection with
said committee. Adopted.
Mr.. Dawes introduced a deficiency
bill, apprOpriating Sl4l $50, and then
explained the items, among which,
the first item is for the pay of addi-
tiOnal clerks in the pension Office,
necessitated by the bill Of last session
granting pensions to soldiers of the
war of 1872. The next item for the
deficiency of 5000 in contingent fund
of the House arose from the fact that
since the last appropriation Of SIS, 600
for that fund, $1,000 have been paid
out under resolutions Of the House to
contested seats, making a gross sum
of S1I4,37 paid, trOm time TO time,
during the last Congress, to persons
whom the House had decided had no
right to a dollar.
An amendment adding the item
Of $4,000 for building a pOstOhice in
Omaha was adopted.
The bill then passed, and the House
went into Committee Of the Whole,
and resumed the consideration of the
bill to repeal the duties on salt and
coal.
Opponents of the bill offered a num-
Der Of amendments, with the object of
loading it down and killing it, some
Of which were adopted and others re-
jected.
Finally, Mr.. Kelly offered the whole
present tariff bill, as amended.
Pending the reading, the committee
rose.
Mr.. Beck introduced a bill to re-
move all legal and political disabili-
ties, and after arguments in its favor
by Messrs. Beck and FarnsWOrth, the
House adjourned till Monday.
Sendts.-In the absence Of the Vice
President, Mr.. Anthony was Unani-
mOusly chosen President pro tenn. of
the Senate, and the Secretary ordered
to communicate with the President Of
the United States and the House of
Representative.
An adjournment until Monday was
defeated by a tie vote.
Mr.. Howe moved to proceed to the
election Of standing committees,
which was agreed to.
He submitted a resolution, with a
list of standing committees deter
mined upon by the Republican eau
Gus.
Mr.. Sumner asked that his name be
erased from the chairmanship of the
Committee on Privileges and Elec-
tiOns, which was agreed to.
A long and warm debate followed, d,
Schurz, champiOning Sumner, Howe
taking the lead for u change, and most
Of the Senators joining in the discus
sion.
Mr.. Schurz urged the Senate not to
yield to Executive dictatiOu. There
were rUmOr5 abroad already, and
there was too much ground to believe
them, that in the change proposed,
the President had taken the pTOpell-
ing power, which was rather stronger
than had heretofore been deemed
compatible with the dignity of that
office.
The subject was finally informally
laid aside.
The Senate then took up the major
ity report in regard to North Carolina
Outrages.

els to the man per day. The company
employ about one man TO every
twenty cOnvicls, who instructs them
and OverlOOks their work. The mine
is dry and comfortable, and the con-
victs are much pleased with the
change. As a general thing, they
do their work Cheerfuliy, and but
for the striped clothes, one would
suppose they were working for pay.
1t is contemplated by the company to
stimulate labor by offering premiums
for good work, to be paid in money,
which the convict may use in buying
tobacco and such legitimate luXuries; (;
or he may lay it by until his time eX-
pires. The law allowing the employ
ment Of convict labor wisely provides
for this humane arrangement
