The CouSTDRrEIr HALF DOLLARS. -
These counterfeits are thus described by
W. E. Dubois, of the Philadelphia Mint
They are Of the right weight, that is,
within the legal tolerance. They are
struck with dies fac smile to the gem
uine; evidently made by the patent drop
process, lately offered for sale here. The
reverse die bears the Mint mark IS. "
The color is not uniform and not white
enough, although, no doubt, finished in
silvering battery. Being cut they are
found to be short and granular, and
probably had TO be struck hot to prevent
their cracking. On being assayed they
are found to contain no silver; they are
composed chiefly of copper, mixed with
tin and zinc. This is rather an unusual
mixture for this purpose. The specific
gravity being below that of standard sill
Yer it was necessary to make them thick
to keep up the weight This compari-
son alone is enough to show their falsity
to any eye. The genuine half dollar is
57-thousandths of an inch thick-ths
piece is 70-nearly one.fourth too thick
On the whole they could hardly pass ex-
cept in dim light.

encd them, and they are still further
weakened by tho success Of Conser-
vatism in tho North.
Our people arc beginning to look
up and appear moro cheerful and
hopeful Of tho future. We see that
something can be done to arrest the
tide Of corruption.
South Carolina has boon worry
drunk for years. But the democratic
triumph is u tub Of cold water to her

fraudulent bonds and pay 'certifi
Gates. They can no longer pass laws

In this way We will have better
government, and having one, we will
prosper und the State will grow in

Tie En- roreem ,nt Aot,

The enforcement act ia used as an
excuse for every species of outrage
and every kind OF politicalharanguc.
1t has been tortured into SO many
forms that it is hideous monstrosity,
meaning nothing and yet every thing.
A citizen oan scarcely take his meals,
now, without being charged with a
violation of tho enforce NJ ent act.
Judge Mackey has lately seen fit
to rido this hobby. We were not
in the court room when he delivered
his charge to the grand jury on Wed.
nrsl'y last. Bat we are Informed
that he enlarged upon the euforcc-
mcnt act and, into tho broad field
fenced in ny its flexible provisions, he
luggcd in without ceremony, several
circumstances that have lately oc-
CURED in Fairfield county, though,
in our humble opinion, they have
about as much to do with tho enforce,
ncnt acts as n member of the Judi.
ciary has to do with politics.
In the first place, wo arc informcd ID ,
ho ordcrdd the grand jury to iDvesti.
gate the aso of tho young men, who
on the 24th October, blew horns and
denounced certain parties as thieves
and scoundyels, and to SEQ whether
they should not be tried under tho
provisions Of the enforcement act.
Now the facts OF that caso arc rs
follows: On tho 24th of October,
D. II. Chamberlain, John j. Pattcr.
son, y. S. Wallace, Parmeleo, Min.
ton and Richardson camo to Wins.
boro to speak on tho political situa.
ton. Chamberlain mado a good

But the poor colored persons preoent
who had not tho intelligence no,
knowledge to discover the laIsehood.
and tho dangerous sentiments tha,
were uttered, were again deluded, and
became n maddcned mob that would
hear no reason.
The men who made these speeche es
, thus proved themselves villains and
liars, as oan be shown by the records
They we're dangerous characters to

1t is to DO hoped that when the next
Congress assemblies it will "investi-
gate" Col. Merrill and Detective
Hester, the renowned ku klux hun.
ters. Merrill is said never to have
been in battle. When his resi-
mcnt was ordered to fight the In.
diaps, he obtained q certificate of
i'll health aud remained in South
Carolina long enough to engineer n
fraudulent bill for $50, 900 through
the legisln turc. lilo then went to
Louisiana to raid on dcfcnccless old
men and women. lie himseV made

ho was censurcd. His object was
solely to intimidato the whites and
secure radical victory. But the
Louisiana tigers did not scare worth
cent, and thrashad ont the radica Is
in spite Of Merrill.
In Alabama, Hester arrcst4d many
innocent citizens, and carried several
handcntled to Mobile. These gentle.
men have since been released.
Tho election in the North is q

thus permitting such atrocities in the
