The hearts Of tho loyal thieves of
South Carolina-na,ivs and alien
are stirred to their deepest depths by
au incident in tue recent election con
teht between the tbwus Of Bsrnwell
and BlucEyii!e. The election was
hold in accordance with All act Of tho
Legislature, to determine which town
should be the capital or county sitc
Of Barnwell county. After u severe
struggle, Barnwcll came off vic,o.
Iious bya majority Of less than fifty
votes. After the result of the elcc.
tion became known, tho people of
Barnwoll made a noisy celebration of
their triumph, and horns were blown;
and cheers Iwere given, anil banrcr3
,|nng upon the breezo in the usual
election style. Bat somo partisan Of
the defeated BlackvilIo set uil,at a
horrible run.or to the etfoct that "the

"The intelligence was duly for
warded to Columbia, and tho uows of

and all Of this suporloyal Indignation
1t now appears that tho owner Of the

is also some doubt as TO, whether it
