WAR RESUMED IN SoUTH CAROLINA THE
Union IS. C Times says the work Of poiti-
cal persecution has been resumed in that coun-
~. Arrests Of prominent citizens are being
made daily Business of all kinds is COM
pleelv Mt a stand still, and every one is expect
ing TO be sent to Jail as a ku-Klux. Farm
work on six or eight farms in the county has
been abandoned and the hands discharged. A
more disastrous blow (the Times says) could
not have been inflicted upon the county than
that OF renewing arrests by the United States
authorities. Quiet and harmony prevailed
among the people and all classes had begun to
settle down in peace and good will, but the
old sore has been re-opened. There is danger
that Union county, If left undisturbed, will go
strongly democratic next fall, and il is proba-
bile thatth danger will be removed by driv-
ing away as many white votes as possible, and
10 make sure, put large number of democrats
where they will not be allowed to vote. A few
hundred dollars in each county will accom-
plish this infamous work.

a FEARFUL RIDE. On Tuesday evening last,
as n train on the European and North Amer-
can Railroad arrived at Oldtown, Me-, n man
was found clinging TO the engine covered with
snow, with one leg broken, and so chilled
through that he was helpless, save TO hold on
to the front braces with n clutch like that of
drowning man. He was taken into the station
and restoratives administered, when he said
his name was Rufus Kilgore, and was walking
10 his house in Odtown, when Re was over
taken by the train moving at slow rate of
speed through the deep snow. Thinking it
safer to jump on the engine than to get off the
track, where there was possibility of his
falling back from the steep drifts on either
side, he made leap with the intention Of land
ing upon the narrow ledge in front of the
boiler, and afterward making his way back
into the cab. He had miscaculated the speed
of the train, however, and when he jumped
his leg was struck and broken by the frame
But he clung desperately, and managed TO
draw himself up to the position in which he
was found, hanging there during the run of a
mile, receiving the full force Of the bitter cold
wind and covered with flying snow thrown
up by the locomotive in its way through the
drifts. His cries for help were drowned by
the wind and the noise OF the train

New Hampshire Election.

Washington seems TO have emptied itself Of
the loose politicians on the occasion Of the
New Hampshire election. II was death
struggle, and it was necessary, if possible to
have the Z" first gun" in the campaign fired
in favor Of Grant, Senators, Congressman and
leading politicians from nil the States, from
Maine to South Carolina, Mississippi and
Iowa, left their duties TO help carry the State
There were four tickets in the field, Demo-
cratic, Republican, Labor Reform and Prohi-
biton. The result was The election Of Straws
tRep over Weston, Dem. the late Govern
o. Straws majority is put down at about
1900 which would be reduced when all the
returns were received. Now, we don't think
the Administration has much to crow over,
for when the votes given TO the other cand-
dates are added TO the Presidential vote ms
they will be next November, then it is almost
moral certainty that the State will go against
Grant. The Administration seems 10 be thank
full for small favors.

bama, was then introduced and
spoke over an hour, followed by l.
D. Campheld, of Ohio. At the close
OF the latter's speech dinner was an
nopnced. There was an abundau,
supply upon the tables. After din
ner General j. b. Gordon and Hon.
Benjamin Hill, of Georgia, spoke
from one stand. and Governor
Vance, Of North Carolina, froa
another. About noon heavy
shower dispersed the assembly,
During the evening a large torch

Why THE ISRAELTTEs WILL VOTE
FOR GREELEY.-We, for our part,
would not vote any man into high
position who manifested spirit Of
persecution at any time. We did
not vote for President Grant on &C
count of his notorious Order No. /.
We could not possibly vote for Mr..
Wilson, because as Know Nothing,
he hated and prosecuted foreigners
and Catholics, and, at the first oc-
casion offering in the Senate OF the
United States, he proved a vulgar
Jew-hater. We would never cast
our vote for any person Unidentified
with intolerance and injustice, be-
cause he is unit 70 be the banner
bearer of liberty, and unsound either
in his judgment or moral character
We vote neither for the demagogne
nor the idiot, and the intolerant pol
itician proves to be either. 1t is
with particular pleasure that we
shall vote for Horace Greeley, not
merely on account of his superior
intelligence, craftsmanship, and stern
honesty, but also because he has
proved himself Invariably just, toll
Grant, and liberal to all sorts of peo-
pie and all classes of ideas. That
is the truly Democratic type of man
hood. These are particular graees
of an American statesman to com
mand our respect and confidence.

AS EXPECTED. The heavy re-
ceipts at Southern points has had
the tendency to depreciate tile price
of cotton. This was naturally to be
expected. We heard one of our
largest cotton buyers, who has late
" returned from New York, say his
outside estimate for the incoming
crop was three and a quarter mill
lions. In this, however, we believe
he is mistaken. We see no reason
to believe that the crop will exceed
that of last year. Prices, under the
influence of heavy receipts, may be
continually lowered until after De-
cember. In the latter part of jan
uary. when receipts grow small, fig
ures will move upwards. Many
think the crop will be gathered by
December lst. In 1878 cotton
mounted from -! c. during Christ
mas to SOC. by the last of March
More important revolutions in prices
may be noted this year. Planters,
we hope, will never dabble in futures.
To do that successfully, much mon
ey is required, and continual and
daily watchfulness of markets.
