A VOICE FROM UNION

Gossip from the national capital dis
closes deep-seated anxiety and alarm on
the part of the Radical leaders ut the
prospects that the Democrats, from pre-
sent appearances, are sure to carry every
Southern State in the next Presidential
election, except, perhaps, South Carroll
na. and lively planning Of means to
bring them again within the Republican
fold. This was the animus of Morton's 8
resolution just before the recess, calling
upon the President for information as to
tho recent alleged defiance of United
States laws in North Carolina and other
States The expected special message
of the President is to be in the same
vein, representing the people unfit for
amnesty, and more hostile to the Co.
vermont than at any time since the war,
and asking authority to send the troops
into any State at will to enforce the
laws-a Radical euphemism for controll-
ing the elections. The return of Aker-
man from Georgia, and his report lon
the prospects there, are awaited with
muoh interest. and will doubtless affect
the plan of some of the leading Radicals
for reconstructing not only Georgia, but
Florida, Alabama and North Carolina.

Tie CUSTOMS OF THE COUNTRY. Mex
leo Is cheerful country for lovers of
peace and quietness. There is scarcely
IL time whom one or more of its States is
not in insurrection. Just now, Guerro-
ro, with population of 27O, 1000, is hay
ing sensation. One General Alvarez
has placed himself Mt the head OF the re-.
volutionists, and proposes to oust the
legally-elected Governor. With unpa-
rallclcd check, he has issued proclama-
tion stating that he desires the "estab-
lishmcnt of ORDER" &C., and invites the
regular troops Of the Government to lay
down their arms and "return to the bo-
som of their families;" which would be
very clever in the troops and very con-
venicnt, no doubt, to the ambitious de-
signs of Alvarez. But this is q very
common way there of electing ones self
to tho Gubernatorial chair.

Anor a Storm there is G Calm.

MIR. EDITOR: Some two weeks ago,
the militia were from sun down to day
light, every night, firing around our
little village of Union. No one could
soundly and sweetly sleep, especially
our female portion of the community.
There was q residence above town, on
the Spartanburg road, one June Mob
ley's. where these organized bands of
militia seemed to concentrate and annoy
us. They cautiously approached the house
of Mr.. J. 81. Gallman, white man and
good citizen, in the deep hours of the
night, and fred upon him, lodging two
balls in the bed where his little niece
short time after this, they fred upon
Mr.. Tom Hughes. white man, and
frightened him and his wife to extreme.
Shortly after this, they attacked poor
one-armed Mat. Stephens in the road,
aud brutally murdered him, throwing
his dead body over the fence in conceal
ment
The good citizens of our village un-
dertook to ferret out this brutal murder,
and with the authorities of the law,
commenced making arrests. Mr.. Dan
iel Smith, white, while in the discharge
of his duties as deputy, was fired upon
and killed. Up to this time, two white
men were murdered, and niueteen mill
tia we're put in Jail, of whom some have
confessed, and majority of them will
be convicted. Unfortunately for us,
two nights afterwards some banditti
unknown, who are called Ku Klu1, sur
rounded the jail, took out five of those
implicated in the murder, shot two to
death, about mile above town, and
wounded the other three, who are now
in jail-one of them mortally wounded,
who has confessed his guilt. Our law
abiding citizens, who are certainly in
majority in this vicinity, deplore this
state of things, and have since used every
| vigilance to prevent such disasters.
Now we have peace and quiet to per-
fection. We hear no more militia guns.
The night is not made hideous by fiends.
We condemn the Ku Klux, both white
and black, but it has terminated, we
think, in small fight between ex-
tremists-two whites killed first, and
tial law ought to be declared in this
County, because OF the few who do
wrong. If martial law should be de-
clared, all farming interests and business
operations must be paralyzed to such an
extent it will ruin both white and colored.
We see that our Representative, Mr.,
Mobley-'tham a0hona a greater skunk
meUer iired"-wishes to force the Co
| vernon to visit our community. If the
| Governor will visit us, we will meet him
ut any point designated, aud surround
him with our best citizens and welcome
| him in Union, where he will learn the
true state Of things. We will be glad to
see him, and will guarantee him safety
and protection.

COLUMBIA, S. G.
Sunday Morning, January Is. 1871.

DEposED SovEBEIaNs. Europe at pre-
sent shows the criminality Of educating
ones son to ssthe Office of fowl" which
only scars to fall again to earth, making
them more miserable and discontented
from having tasted the sweets OF space
in the upper air. The number OF de-
posed sovereigns, or the legitimate heirs
Of sovereignty, now running about with
out sceptres, is remarkably large, and
many of them are reported to be actual
" suffering for the necessaries OF life.
At the head of the list, because of his
extreme poverty, stands George, the
blind King of Hanover, who was de-
throned by Prussia in 1866. There is
Prince Wsss, who represents the origi-
nal royalty of Sweden, replaced by that
of Bernadotte, and is o descendant OF
Gustavus Adolphus. There are the
Comte de Chambord, representing the
Bourbon, and the Comte de Paris, head
of the Orleans dynasty of France.
There is Napoleon III, dethroned OF
Paris. on September 4, 1870. There is the
eldest son of Don Miguel, (uncle of the
late Queen Maria II, da Gloria } who was
King of Portugal for short time in
1928. There is Duke Charles of Bruins
wick, who was deposed and succeeded by
his brother in 1880. There are the King
and Queen of Naples, and the respective
ex-rulers of Lombardy, Parma and Mo-
dena. There are Don Carlos. Isabella
II, and little King Alfonso, of Spain.
The Pope, who has been deprived of his
temporalities, may, in some respects, be
entitled to place among the crownless,
but as long as he continues the head of
the Oldest and most numerous Christian
body, he cannot be said to be without q
sceptre.

A correspondent Of the New York He
.ull, writing from Versailles, SAYS:

"There was fire ut St. Cloud, in
which 12O villas were burned. These
villas were strategical obstacles, and as
the process of demolishing them was
too slow for the impatient commander of
the line Of defence, which they impeded,
he ordered them to be burned-a pro.
cecding which had the double advantage
of being speedy and also of giving us
prospect of materials for q sensational
letter-alas! to be destroyed by the
simple history of the facts. 1t was only
war. The houses were in the way and
they must be got out of the way. They
had been the happy homes of 12O fami-
lies. But what of that?"
