eepce, there is no dou 81 that Jose del Carme
Was one of tue worst murderers who has ever
suffered the penalty Of the law; and there
is no question that both Sordo and Carme
were Justly condemned. The latter was GER
tainIy concerned In the Overeud bucbery.
and It is said by those who knew this lodian
that he had been connected, as principal or
accomplish, in not less than eight murders.
Deputy Sheriff Miller informs US that with
the execution OF Del Crime our county jail
is cleared of murderers for the hrst time
since Sheriff Huusacker has been in charge OF

The Vacant Judaeshlp.

Friday next, the 18th inst, is the time ap'
pointed by the Legislature for the election o.
a Judge to ell the vacancy caused by the death
of the lanented Judge Green. Various can
didates have been announced for the position
the majority of whom, however, are wholly
unfit, having neither honor nor ability. a
correspondent of the Unioa-H Herald, apprehen'
aiye that his party is>not fairly represented in
the Judiciary of this State, warns the Leglsla'
ture against electiug a Conservative Judge
thereby intimating that such bright lights as
Moses and Whipper would be far more prefera'
BILE than an honest and able Conservative! We
learn with great pleasure from the above source
that Gen. J. B. Kershsw is spoken Of as likely
to be made a candidate, and we earnestly hope
that the members of the Legislature may dis
regard all differences of opinion, and when the
day arrives for the election, concentrate on
Gen. Kershaw, whose stainless honor and un'
questionable legal ability we'll be6ts him fol
che vacant Judgeship.

The Civil Rights Bill.

The House Of Representatives, on Friday
lass, passed the civil rights bill by vote of
153 TO ss. Before its passage an amendment to
strike out the school clause was agreed to, and
{. motion was made to substitute the Senate
bill, which was not agreed to. The rules were
amended in order that this measure might pass
with simple majority in Its favor, as two
thirds were requisite before the rules we're
changed, and failing to secure that number,
the Republicans resorted to this scheme to
compass their ends. The debate on this bill
has teen quite bitter, although not very pro-
tracted. The bill itself was under charge Of
Butler, who has lost none of his intense hatred
of the South, and who seemed determined to
pour ont the vial of bis wrath in this iniquitous
measure. The Senate will likely pass the bill
without much debate, or any considerable
DELAY. The administration Senators are ex-
ceedingly anxious to have "strong and vigorous
measures" which means that the President is
10 be clothed with more extraordinary powers,
and the civil rights bill confers unusual au-
thority upon the Executive, such as making
arrests and using other means of intimidation
There is no doubt that President Grant will
approve this or any other measure which adds
TO his power, and enables him to terrorize over
the Southern States, for just now he is in a
humor to make things lively in this section.
'sWhom the gods would destroy they first make
mad" The madness of the Radicals is fully
apparent, and their destruction as party daily
becomes more discernible to every one, except
their leaders.

THE WILDMAN TROUPE.

This troupe, composed Of number OF the
best performers from the Now York COMEDY
Theatre, interested and amused our citizens for
a period Of three nights since our last ISSUE
Each night the Masonic Hall was filled with
large and appreciative audiences, who delighted
in the many beautiful impersonations OF char
acter which were exhibited on the stage. on
Thursday night Clara Wildman appeared as
Pauline in the much admired play OF 1.-The
Lady of Lyons" and on Friday night Joe JEFF
ferson's celebrated play of "Trip Van Wrinkle
was rendered in splendid style by the whole
troupe, the chief attraction being FL. Wild
man as Grip" After the play, Clara Wild
man appeared upon the stage and sang the
"Image Song" introducing Generals Washing
ton, Jackson and Lee. She was frequently ap-
plauded. On Saturday night double play was
performed, beginning with the "French Re-
public" and ending with Cuba. After the hrst
play, which was very good, Clara Wildman re-
peated in touching tones the beautiful Image
Song" The last play, "Cuba," was one OF
love and retribution, in which Clara Wlldman,
as the pretty Cigar Girl of the Alameda, figured
as heroine. A notable and highly amusing
character in the play was Seth Swap, yankee
who was on tour of pleasure in Cuba, and
who always appeared at the right time as the
Guardian Angel Of the Cigar Girl. This char
acter was admirably acted by F. ]. Wildman,
who elected frequent applause by his many
droll and humorous remarks. The music iur-
nished by tho Orchestra each night was partic-
uarly fine, and the songs of little Ollie received
well-merited applause. The Wildman Troupe
left on Monday morning last for Greenville.
A cordial welcome is in store for them when
ever they return to Anderson.
