Non-Inferference.
The Governor received a dispatch from
Attorney General Williams stating in effect
that the United States government would
not interfere. The Governor states this
was all he desired, and he promises to put
down the insurrectiOn at once. Last nights
dispatches were in error in stating that
the Circuit Judge had issued writ TO the
sheriff Immediately on giving judgment
against Baxter. No writ was ever issued,
either then or now. As soon as the judg-
ment was rendered Brooks took the oath
of Office, ard with a copy Of the Judgment
ia his hand went to the Governors office
and took foreible possession.

How Young COnIey Took Care Of His
Mothers Money.
Last Friday afternoon Marshal Pitman
and Detective Pickett arrested Andrew
CoI.ley, charged with having stolen the
sum Of $40 from his mother, who lives in
Edgefield.
Mrs. COnley says he money was locked
up in a sewing machine drawer, that her
son broke it opep, took the money out and
was appropriating it to his own use. When
young Conley was arrested he was standing
on College street, near the Square, and his
little sister was endeavOring to induce him
to return The stolen funds.
Al the money except SIT was recovered.
Conley had deposited $50 in the First Ma
tiOnal Bank, and after being arrested, was
made to sign a check for the amount. He
says he only took the money in order that
better care would be exercised with it. At
| ter the recovery of the money COnley was
released, his mother having refused to pros
ecute him.

THE EXPOSITION.
Its First Weeks Results Guarantee
COmDIefe SueeeSa

While visitors were constantly perambu-
lating through the Exposition building yes
teriay and last night in as encouraging
numbers as they have every day since the
opening, the work of perfecting the exhibit
tion was being pushed forward with una
batting energy. WOrllmen were still en-
gagged in finishing up the interior of the
building, and exhibitors preparing their
displays.
The general appearance of things last
night, after the close of the labOrs of the
first week, was superb and showed
marked and highly gratifying progress
since the first day. Articles for display
were rushed IN yesterday with unusual
hustle, and the empty space was visibly
narrowed. The impression seemed to OBJ
tain that the show would begin in earnest
Monday, and we feel!assured this will be
the case.
1t will be worth any ones time and
money to visit it and look through, but the
improvement will 60 on with no sparing
of pains or energy for week or two vet
and we are bound to have the finest Expo
sition this year that we have ever had.

"The Democratic and Conservative

A Disqualification Movement i'm In
Seventh Ward

A DisOrganizatiOn Movement i'm the
Seventh Ward.
Below are given two communications
bearing upon the movement of the Seventh
Ward disOrganizers to put an independent
ticket for Aldermen and COuncilmen in the
fed. If our information be correct, a Ger
tain Federal ottice-hOlder and leading Radi-
cal is at the bottom of the trouble. We
trust that the people Of the Seventh Ward
will cOuntenance none but the regular tick
ct, as the few supporters of the independ-
ents can hope to get their men in only by
swapping Off Howell. 1t will be seen that
Mr.. Ryman stands by his colOrs and gives
the dissatisfied element to understand that
they have no authority to use his name.
The communications are as follows:
To the Union and American:
If Chas. II. Ryman, for Alderman, A. l..
Crosthwaite and E. G. LansdOwn, for Coun-
cilmen, (the regular nominees OF the con-
ventiOn in the Seventh ward) will consent
not to become affrighted and retire from
the race for the City Council, we, a large
minority, if not majority, Of the voters Of
said ward, hereby promise that we will
hold no midnight conclaves on the college
lot, unless better seats than the cold ground
are prepared for us; that more than fifteen
unterTified citizens must be present before
we can be demOralized; and that the friends
Of the regular nominated ticket for the CITY
Council will not swap Mayoralty votes, for
they are too proud of the regular nominee
TO go back on him.
No BOLTERs.
To the Union and American:
Thankful to the gentlemen who called
on me in your issue of yesterday, I would
say thai | am already candidate for the

nation of the case Of William Gatlin.

The interest in the case continued unabat-

the office was densely packed with Specta

was not sufficiently strong to identify Ga,
