How a Coiored Convict was Killed
by the Radical Keepers of the
Peniteptiary.

From the Columbia Union, October 26.l
Coroner i. II. Coleman held an inquest
on the body of Jefferson Brown, colored, a
convict in the State Penitentiary, who
died Yesterday while in the shower bath
at. that institution. From what we have
been able to learn of the testimony given
at the inqust, the following seems to be
the facts IN the case: A square box, high
enough for man to stand up in, with a
place above for the water to fall through,
comprises the shower-bath. On the sides
of this box are holes, opposite each other
and at convenient distances, through
which bar is thrust to keep the mans
face turned upwards, the bar running be-
meath the chin. It appears that Brown
was placed in the bcx with his head tss..
toned yip in the manner before stated, and
FIVE or six buckets Of water were let into
his face, at the end Of which performance
the bar broke, and Brown fell down IN
the box. Endeavors to stand him up
again we're fuitless, and the captain of
the prison guard, with other assistance
had rope placed about the mans neck,
the end of the rope passing through one
of the augur holes above the man, and
the men pulling on the rope while others
In front helped to raise, him. Brown was
got into the position again, and more wa.
ter let upon him, when it was discovered
that he was dead. DR.. Gibbes, who made
post nortem examination of the body,
was of the opinion that the man died
frow congestion of the lungs, the effect OF
the showerings, but was not willing, if We
understood the matter rightly, to positive
ly swear the rope had no effect in causing
death. Brown was rather delicately
constituted man at the best.

From Atlanta.

ATLANTA, October So.-Governor Bullock
resigned his Office on tho Esd, to take effect to-
day, and at 3 p. NJ, BsDjswin conloy, Pre'i-
dent Of the Senate. was installed MS Governor.
The ro,ignation was written before his fight
to New York.
Great excitement prevails. The statement,
few days back, that Charles i. Schlatter,
Superintendent of the Brunswick and Albany
Railrosd, had left With railroad property, is
incorrect. There is nothing wrong charged
against Schlatter.
The Constitutionatist, of Tuesday, says /:
Our people were surprised last evening by the
telegraphic news from Atlanta of the rssigna-
tion of Bullock, and the instaliment Of Mr.
Benjamin Conley as Governor. The resigns-
ton, though dated the 23d int, to tnko effect
on yesterday, the 3Oth, was kept secret. This
resignation of Bullock and abandonment OF
the State, at this time, and the 'ecresy with
which be cloaked his designs, are strong pre-
sumptive evidence of guilt. He dared not face
IN investigation of his rfficial acts.

Mormon Affairs.

SALT LAKE, October 30.-The prisoners
arc quartcred comfortably. Elder Geo.
Cannon arrived this morning from San
Francisco, and preached this p. IN. in
the large tabernacle to an audience num-
bering at least ten thousand. He coun-
selled his hearers to abstain from any
act of violence and submit to the law,
and God would protect them and deliver
them from their prosecutors Tho cru
SADIE AGAINST them, he said, would only
strengthen and glorify them in the end.
Their Church could not bo overturned.
Their faith was the inspiration of the
Divine Spirit, and would endure forever.
Elder Pratt was Tot so conservative.
He did not want ai,y whining judge to
say to him as he did to Hawkins, II am
sorry for you" he wanted no sympathy
from any Federal Official. He was ready
to go the Jail for twenty years, but did
not want any pity from such source.
He predicted that God would totally
overthrow and annihilate the present
prosecutors of the Mormon people. Moth
ing further has been heard from Orson
Hyde, the apostate.

The Charleston Mandamus Case.
rFrom the Columbia Union.

1.-THE writ of Mandamils in the Char
lesion election case was summarily dis
posed of Saturday evening. Judge Gra-
ham very properly figured the matter
down to two points, the first of which
was the singular fact that the contestants
had failed toproduce the protest; second,
ly, the Supreme Court, in the case OF
Pillsbury and others, had decided that
the City Council of Charleston had no
right TO pass judicially upon the validity
of an election. The matter came to an
end as if the bottom had been knocked
out, and the many prominent men of the
legal fraternity of Charleston departed
gleefully. We trust that those dissatis-
fed Republicans, who were unwilling to
abide by the decision of the people at
the ballot box, are now satisfied OF one
thing, and that is, that contesting seats,
where there are no legal grounds, is an
uphill business. AL true Republicans
ought to feel gratified with the result OF
Saturdays work"
Mayor Wagner and the Aldermen
elect at the late election, were no doubt
duly. iriaugurated on the 1st. And now
three cheers for glorious old Charleston.

The New York usrald on Martial


Well says the New York Henatd,
which is friendly to Gen. Grant:
"No doubt there have been deplorable
outraees upon individuals by local bands,
and probably the Civil Rights bill OF
Congress may have been violated in some
cases. No good citizen would attempt to
Justify these. But such crimes are not
peculiar to South Carolina. Crime as
bad or more heinous are committed IN
all the States, and it would be easy
enough to attribute them to Ku klnx II
it should suit the Federal Government
to do 80 for political ends Indeed. tnere
might be no limit to Federal interference
in the local affairs of the several States,
or even in this city Of New York, II the
proclamation of martial law Is 10 1oilo"
the commission Of similar crimes as
those perpetrated in South Carolna'
Should the clamor Of few parnsan poi
iticians be needed more than the princi-
pies of local selfgovernment, upon whlcn
the fabric of our institutions rests, lnere
will be an end to civil liberty"
The Herald we'll asks: eff it be ne
cessary to put portion of South Carolina
under martial law for crimes against IN
dividuals, what should be done In North
Carolina, where few bandits (the Lowry
gang) have successfully dehed all the
constituted authorities?"
Again, how true are the following re-
fiections, from the same journal:
"And will he not have some regard for
the anomalous and trying situation OF
those poor Southerners, who, though
they erred, are brave and high splrlteo
people of our own race and blood? Gan
he not see the humiliating position they
are placed in, particularly In Soutn caro-
lima, in being political slaves 70 their
former domestic slaves-an Intelligent
and cultivated population put under the
rule of ignorant and semi-savage negroes
and corrupt strangers, who have little or
no interest in the State, except to rob 1t :?
Has he no bowels of compassion for these
unfortunate people Of our own blood un-
der such trying circumstancesf We
think, as we said before, that he means
we'll; but he has been led, doubtless. to
extreme measures, which are cruel TO
the people of South Carolina and dam
gerous to civil liberty, by partisan and
narrow-minded politicians, who care on
lv for their own Immediate interests.
The President should know that he can
make more political capital and win the
good will of the generous American. peo-
ple, both North and South, more by a
kind and liberal policy to the Souther-
ners than by military coercion. LET US
have peace'' seems to ehis fayorite mot
to, and he can have peace in the Soutn,
as well as good will everywhere, by ADAM
doning his military idea Of government
and making the civil law supreme IN eve
rv section OF our common country"
