SPECIE PAYMENTS. s.-The New York
Herald announces as an important ru-
NOR from Washington" that "thc ud-
ministration is pcrfecting plan whereby
the Government shall resume specie
payments before the 1st Of January,
1872" We observe that the Washing
ton Chronicle is urging the resumption
OF specie payments. The preliminary
step, in the opinion of some, will be
taken when the Secretary of the Urea
sury uses the coin reserves, under his
control, to lower the gold premium to at
least eight or nine per cent, SO that the
silver coin now boarded may be brought
into general circulation. The rc-appear-
ance of silver halves and quarters ms cur
rency would have very healthy effect
on the national finances, and facilitate
the measures that mny be ultimately
adopted for making grcenlacks con-
vertible, ut tho will Of the holders, into
gold.

DARING OUTRAGE Wednesday
night, about 10 o'clock, about fifty dis
gnised armed men suddenly came into
our town aud demanded the keys of the
Jail from the sheriff, which was refused
They then arrested the sheriff and put
him under guard, and, with axes aud
other weapons, broke into the Jail and
took out five of the prisoners who had
been placed there under suspicion Of
being connected with the murder of Mr.
Stevens. They Departed rs noselessly
us they arrived, up the Spartanburg
road. Early tho next morning, two OF
the prisoners were found dead about IL
mile from town. For some time nothing
could be heard of the other three, but
during the day they were reported alive
but badly wounded. Two of them were
re-arrcstcd after their wounds had been
dressed. Various reports are afloat as to
the fate Of the other but there is no
doubt that he is very severely wounded,
and IN the hands of friends.
/ AS we have often before stated, such
acts meet our most hearty condemnation
They are subversive of all law, order and
peace, and every effort should be made
to put stop to them. We earnestly call
on those mysterious persons who commit
such unlawful acts to stop. You may
suppose you are doing good to society by
ridding it of those who disturb it's peace; /;
but we can assure you, you are endan-
ing the peace, comfort and liberties of
the good and true men, women and chill
dren of the County. Not until tho law
fails to protect the lives and property Of
tho people will we countenance such acts
as were committed on Wednesday night.

The Position OF Paris.

The Positlon OF Paris.
Day by day, the grasp of the be-
sieger tightens around Paris, until now
even French journals are discussing the
probability of its early capitulation. AS
yet, all it's defences are intact-the 81
lencing OF Fort Avron being of no ma
terial consequence, since it was but an
outpost beyond the regular Notifications,
and behind its barricades stand fully two
hundred thousand well-drilled and per-
fectly equipped men. At no point have
the Prussians evinced any disposition to
resort to storming the sapping and
mining process. together with the use of
guns OF long range, by which shells can
be thrown into the suburbs Of Paris,
seem to suit the German taste better
than charging OF the point Of the gleam-
ing bayonet, and rs Strashourg fell in
this way, they have very good cause for
resting their chances of success upon it
in the present instance. The probability
OF on army from the provinces marching
to the, did of, the beieaguered city, does
not. npw appear. imminent. The last
hope Of relief from ti,at'sourcc fled when
De Pa1ladines was forced to inaugurate q
retrograde movement from Chateau Dun.
Bub Paris may be able to hold out q long
while yet. Its people arc terribly in
earnest; they have weighed all tho con-
sequences growing out of stubborn de-
fence, and have determined to perish
sooner than surrender. It is difficult to
estimate the power and endurance OF
which brave people are capable. 1t
would not surprise us in the least if Paris
were to hold its enemies at bay until
next summer. Such defenccs are not
uncommon.
Several members Of tho North German
Parliament have spoken out boldly
against continuance of hostilities, al
leging that the masses of Germany arc
not in favor of war of conquest md
kingly aggrandizement. This opposi-
tion was carried to the point of refusing
to vote for the new loan, which Bismarck
says must be forthcoming at onco. A
refusal of such q character at such q
time was sufficient t. exasperatc even his
serene highness William, aud that lie
should exercise his ardent love for libcr-
ty in thrusting tho recalcitrant repre-
sentatives into prison, was not mat
ter of great surprise to most people.
While such things ere possible in Berlin,
the French have reason to hope that ere
Paris feels poignantly the pangs of hum
ger, something will turn up to disturb
the equilibrium of its great enemy and
make successful defence possible. In
common with the American people, we
would bo glad to see Paris escape the
horrors Of bombardment and pillage.
It is too closely identified with the beau
tiful in nrt and the admirable in science
to be sacked by the German soldicry.
and the marring of "tho beautiful city
could not be remedicd in the present
century, if, indeed, at all.

CAPITOL ELECTIoN.-The munich
pal election of Little Rock psssed of
quietly on the 7th, resulting in an
overwhelming defeat Of the ring which
has so lately seemed to control every
thing connected with the political mat.
ters of the entire State, and of every
municipality in it. As to the political
complexion of the new officers, we know
but little, further than they are called
briAdle, tails, and belong to a faction
Of what was once the republican party,
and now make liberal use of such
expressions as "honest men for officers
thieves to the rear" &c, Two out OF
the three political papers publishsd there
give them credit for being honest and
capable, while the third, the minstrel
organ, cannot conceal its chagrin and
disappointment at the result.
Upon the whole, from the best in
formation we chm obtain, we are strong
ly inclined to the belief that the voters
of Little Rock have acted wisely in
selecting the less OF two evils VINO
was it, few weeks sirce that gave
utterance to the opinion that Little
Rock is Arkansas."

VE6ETABLEs. The fact Is, we get
so many nice vegetables from our
friends that we are beginning to call
ourself a regular vegetarian. And
now comes Capt, Billy Ferguson with
a turnip just little better and little
larger than any other turnip of the
sesson-twenty-six inches in circum-
ference. And that isn't all-the sack
had to be balanced, and Billy is no old
fogy to balance it with rock as the
old topper did his jug, but true to his
generous instincts, he just filed up the
other end of the sack with nice, fresh,
second-crop Irish potatoes, of the early
rose variety, filling up the crevasses
with radishes. In the vegetable de.
partment the morrow is provided for.
Don't anybody do so again before
