McGill was carried before Trial Justice
Gleaves, Of Beaufort, says the Repu6i-
cnn, on Tuesday. charged with brutally

whereupon Mrs. McGill heated O poker
and burned the lips and face of the child
in dreadful manner. After prelimi-
nary examination, the woman was bailed,
to appear again for further investigation
of her brutality.

The correspondent of the Charleston
Ne,Os. speaking of the 'Grand Council
of the Independent Order Of United
Brethren, says:
''This is the measure that proposes to
institute the Governors imitation of the
Ku Klux Khan. am told that the Or
ganization is already perfected with Lis
ExoelIency as the Grand Oyolops, and
little oyclopses in oil the Counties,
and with 3. J. Lee. of Edgefeld, as the
Mogul OF the House. with following of
sevenIy-six Representatives., sworn mem
bers of the u. B. The bill received
rough handling from few of the mem
bers, but of course its passage was fore
gone conclusion. Hurley moved to
amend the list of incorporators by strik-
ing out the name Of Esop Goodson and
inserting in its place the names of r. x.
Scott and T. j. Msckey. He said that
it was we'll known that these persons
were not only members, bnt high
officials, of this new-fasbioned Ku Klnx,
and he submitted that the colored men
who were named in tho bill should not
be 30 exclusive as to draw distinctions
against Scott and Mackey, on account
of character Whipper moved to strike
out Independent and insert Scott so
as to read the Scott Order of United
Brethren and furnish more accurate
definition of the machine; and another
moved to amend by substituting de.
pendent for independent as It was
very evident the gang proposed to be
dependent upon somebody for pap and
plunder. The amendments were of
course voted down, and the bill, as re-
ported, passed under the operation of
the previous question by vote of 81 to
%. It is understood. however, that the
bill will find grave in the Senate,
where it is said the order has but two
members, and thus this patent Ku Klux
will at least fail to olothe itself in the
guise of legislative endorsement"

It is related of certain Roman Sc
nator that he paid $4,000 for an ass. 30
highly valued were these foolish and OBJ
Btinate animals at that time. According
to Representative Whipper, Gov. SCOTT
paid sc. 900 for Byas, the member from
Orangebnrg. It must be added that tho
brays OF Byas. if not classical, have be-
come historical, and have been pretty
effective. This is not all. Scott must
have bought Byas from previous pur-
chaser. for. according to Messrs. Bowen
and Hurley, somebody-perhaps the
TuMBLRR Dennis-had previously bought
Byas for $12, 900 in the upholstery swim
die.
It il said ths6 Nero shod his mules
with gold and silver-not with nero
plates-but the entire hoofs were en-
closed in the precious metals. The
little Ohio Nero must be initiating the
corrupt, profigate Roman. The Roman
Nero took the money of the Roman peo.
pie to shoe his mules with gold and sill
YER. SCOTT takes the money Of the peo-
pie of South Carolina to buy up Byas
and his crew. Oonscience-stricken anl
trembling. after long career of crime
and licentiousness, the Nero of Rome,
in disgust Of himself, slew himself. Not
many tears would be shed either in Ohio
or Carolina if the future should COM
plete the analogy.

irhsSl aursiaa Railroad.


,e,. Thssl aurSaa n ailroad. 3. e.ts.ss
We congratulate the stockholders Of
ihs Greenville and Oolumbia Railroad
on the faot chat the. future management
81 their road has passed into safe hands.
BY the transfer recently effected. we nm
derstand that the South Carolina Rail
road Company now have full control Of
this road, including the Laurens branch,
and that they intend to put it upon a
permanent basis. Whatever may be the
fate OF the ring who have recently 80
unsorupulously manipulated it's finances
for their own personal ends, We hail this
change as an inauguration, of new era,
when our own industrial Institutions will
pass under the management OF our own
capitalists, whose interests are identified
with those Of the State. OF course, So
importanta purchase has strained the
resources OF company even as strong
as ws know the South Carolina Railroad
Company to be; still President Magrath
has the earnest purpose to extend the
benefits Of this investment, as far as
praotioable, in the np-country. We un-
derstand heihas made a most liberal ofter
10 theipeople nofn Laurens, which.should
meet'HftH g hearty AAd prom pt, response.
He proposes, as>~e understand from the
1.anrepsville. 4 ;Hsrsld to issue Bonds,
secured by q hrst mortgage of the Lau-
rens RAILROAD, ofo which if the oommu-
nitiesshere interested will take $5D'0oO,
hepEomiaes to,begin the rebuilding OF
theif,roRd forthwith. These, are coupon
bouda, atsevenj per cent, and he is will
ing % put them Upon the market at
eighty cents in theN dollar. I, How those
who have The means can hesitate to close
with ON offer 30 liberal. We cannot con-
ceive. The investment itself will yield
an income of nine per cent, but how
much will this be enhanced by the ad
vance in the value OF real estate, the
market afforded for home productions,
the development Of dormant resoprces,
and the facilities OF trade? Let the
farmer take the single article OF cotton.
We understand the transportation by
wagon to the nearest depot now to; be
about So per bale. The railroad freight
cannot exceed seyenty-five cents. and
this gain may safely be added to his in
come by the farmer investing. A.simple
calculation will show that this item alone
will yield three per cent. on the market
value of the cotton, which, added to the
coupon interest, will give twelve per
cent. We feel constrained to say to our
Laurens friends, If they allow this slide
in the affairs of men" to pass by unim-
proved, we can hardly sympathise with
them, should they find themselves thrown
. century behind the times in this age
Of progress.

A money article taken from North
ern newspaper says:
ga firm or State will do better to
redeem promise standing in it's name,
however obtained or exacted, and apply
it's caution rather to future unlawful is-
sues than to suoh as may have passed
already iDto the possession OF innocent
holders. For one who cannot meet an
obligation through any sacrifice what
ever we have nothing but pity; but for
those who repudiate their pledges be-
cause they have been cheated, and this
is the most convenient way of seeking
redress. we have only an emphatic and
sweeping condemnation. He that
changes not, although "to his own hurt"
he must keep the promise that stands in
his name, is the only true man by the
text of philosophy that has higher
than human sanction. We never knew
man to regret that he had overcome
the temptation to repudiate pledge
wrongly extorted, which it was still right
for him to redeem"
This is very convenient doctrine for
the bond-holder; but it is not 80 worry
clear to people generally. All the bottle
holders in the country to the bond-hold-
ars cannot convince plain, honest people
that they are called upon to assume the
fraud bonds OF swindling officials. Nei-
ther in ethics or out of ethics does any
such obligation exist. To say that the
people of South Carolina are bound to
assume the responsibility of the over
issues of the ring is nonsense, or some
thing worse.
