The great charity panie of the day
seems to Be oentered on unfortunate Chi
eago, while the suffering Thousands in
Wisconsin aud Minnesota are almost lost
sight of. This, however, is easily &C.
counted for. A rivalry for charity has
oil at once sprung up among our wealthy
cities, and their acts arc more apt to be
hcraldsd abroad when giving to her than
when giving to tho other sufferers, if
anything more needy. Of the millions
that have been given to Chicago, the
most needy, especially those who we're
known only among their limited circle
Of friends, will receive little or nothing,
while those who are more fortunate in
this respect will fare better. We hope it
may not be so, but it wouldn't surprise us
if in few months great cry is raised
about the fraudulent handling of the
money so freely given. It is nearly
always the case when large sums are to
be handled in the manner that this will
have to be.

From the following Washinvtf

From the following Washington tele :
gram Of the 22d it appears Grant has
been making . blunder; but his admin.
istration is full Of blundcrs for that mat.
ter: ut appears that there was a good
deal Of carlessness exhibited 10 drafting
the Presidents proclamation declaring
martial Law in South Carolius. One Of
tho counties intended to Be included in
the so.called insurrectiousry districts wa,
omitted altogether. and one was included,
the county Of Marion, of which the Rad.
ical senator from that quarter writes that
he does not know of q moro peacesble
place. He says that it must be clerical
error to have included that county, and
he begs that martial law be withdrawn
from it. The fact is that Marion county
was represented here to be one of the
worst ku klux counties in the state.
The authorities do not know wha. to
believe Of these contradictions, furnished
from Official sources"

Missouri Salt Works.

We learn from the Chillicothe Consti
tuition, that firm in that city-Messrs.
Hsrker 4 Dixon-sometime since pur
chased tract Of land near Triplctt,
Charlton county, on which there we're
indications Of salt water, and on which
there was an ancient we'll, from the waters
Of which, tradition says old settlers made
salt for home use thirty or forty years
ago. Recently these gentlemen sent to
GAINESVILLE, Ohio, and procured the ser.
vices Of an experienced salt maker
there, who came on to Triplett, and after
prospecting around, had the old we'll
partially opened, and on Saturday last,
after procuring . few kettles from the
neighbors, he proceeded to test the quail
ity OF the water. The result exceeded
his most sanguine expectations. With
these rude "evaporstors," he made sew
eral bushels Of salt Of the best quality,
clear, pure and white. We learn that be
prouounces the water very rich. and we
also learn that the proprietors will imme
diatsly mako preparations to manufacture
salt on an extensive scale. Wells will be
sunk, works erected, aud the necessary
apparatus put in to manufacture the sal,
in large quantities.

A Whole Congregation Stampeded BY
Z GhOStIy X, X,
From the Little Rock Gazette.1

A letter from Red Bluff, Jefferson
county, Informs us Of one of those cruel,
"hsllish outrages which so often startle
Southern communities, and furnish food
for our enemies at the North. We suggest
that the sub committee of the Ku klux
inquisition be sent at once to the scene of
the disturbance to collect all the facts,
On recent Sunday an old dsrksy, famil
iarly called Uncle 10, disguised himself
in the garb Of ku klux. and went to q
colored church 10 Silver Bend. There
was q large congregation present. The
colored folks had assembled from all the
nsighboring farms. Uncle 10 walked
stealthily up to the house Of worship,
while tho preacher was in the very midst
OF his sermon, and the first seen of him
he was entering the house. There was q
scream among the female portion of the
audience as Uncle 10 advanced down the
aisle, and general rush made for the
door. In two minutes more not a soul
,rsmuiuvdiu tho house, save Uncle 10 and
the preacher. The latter stood his
ground gallantly, although some arc
uncharitably disposed to say he couldn't
run. Those who left the house took to
the woods and scattered to all parts of the
neighborhood, telling the most alarming
tales about the Ku klux. Notwithstand,
ing his entire congregation had departed,
the preacher continued to exhort them 10
his loudest tones. Seeing that he would
not leave also, Uncle Jo "lit in" and gave
the reverend gentleman q sound cursing,
and left the church, the preacher coutin.
uing his sermon to an imaginary crowd.
Next Day Uncle 10 was arrested and
brought before Esquire Ransom Mccall,
who fined him $50 for damage done the
congregation and S25 for cursing the
preacher. When he paid the fine Uncle
10 is reported to have SAID: II swar
befo God, l nebber do so no more; no,
nebber-no, gsmmen, nebber."

They Democratic dare not, ss patriotic
men, refuse to forget party, II necessary,
to save the country from further spoila =
tion at the hands of those ungodly van-
dals who are uprooting our liberties and
destroying the temple erected by the
blood Of the revolution. We say with,
out any reservation, thstif the Democracy
cannot feel morally certain that thcy can
accomplish the regeneration of the coun.
try, they must fraternize with the liberal
men Of tho other party and by such
union save the government from Grants
eupidity and from Radical psr6dy.
So says the outspoken Sedalia Demo.
crat, aud so must say every man who has
the salvation of his country more at heart
than the success Of his party. Political
history for the last Eve or six years
proves conclusively enough that upon no
other grounds can the corruption of the
government be checked. But there are
many who defautly court defeat rather
than victory upon anything short of what
they are pleased to term the old Jeffer-
sonian platform. They believe that II
their ideas were carried out. success
would follow; but we are confident this
ma mistake, born Of desire and thor
blind zeal for early inculcated principles.
To insure success, We not only need tho
assistance Of every Democrat, but that OF
as many Of our opponents ss desire for
reform will attract. II must be rsmem
bercd that in some portions of the coun.
try many who are opposed to the prsse ut
corrupt management Of public affairs will
not be allowed to approach the pclls, and
that unrelenting party bitterness will
drisc away many who would otherwise
fight sobly for reform. There is . large
class, . majority We believe, who are
snxious to behold, and will assist in the
downfall Of the present corrupt power
sut purity fsalty, which 10 very strong,
must be overcome. @lnisss this end can
~ sttained, aud shs good OF ali partie,

ss IL has been fos the last few year..
No one Of the various factions opposed
to these diabolisms is able Of itseif to
overthrow them. All must act together, Of
bayonets will win the sictory every time

REMARKABLE PHENoM ENoN IN North

REMARKABLE PHENOMENON IN NORTH
CARoLINA.-The Wilmington Journal,
Of last week, says: The very peculiar
appearance ofthe sun, Yesterday At noon,
attracted the presence of nearly all who
we're abroad at the hour. That luminary
appeared to be hidden and his light
obstructed BY a heavy gray mass of
clouds, which extended around it in a
perfect circle Of apparently about Eve
degrees in distance from the diameter to
the circumference. The edges Of the
clouds we're bordersd by a bright ring,
partaking Of many Of the hues of the
rainbow, and this ring was again sur
rounded by large and q more distinct
circle, and this again was cut into to-
wards the North, by another ring, the
Southern portion only of which was Wis
ible. The appearance lasted, in all, for
forty minutes, otherwise the day was fair
and clear throughout.
