BUSINESS MATrERs.-The Bonneville
Enterprise says that "all the indications
point to lively spring trade In this Vi
cinity. In spite OF the terrible roads, last
Saturday from four 10 five hundred people
came into town on horseback"
The Belmont locals in the same paper
say that
"Trade is reviving in spite of dull
times. Farmers from all directions wend
their way to this small centre, transact
their business, and hurriedly repair to
their farms, there to meet the demands OF
their profession"
We are rather sorry to see-such news
as the following in the Enterprise:
Emigration to the West seems to be
on the increase this season from this sec
ton. A number Of families, including
about thirty persons, from Noble, Wash
ington and Morgan counties, started for
Dawson county, Nebraska"
The miners in Stewards coal works, at
Stewartsville, have been on u strike be-
cause Of the reduction of twenty-five
cents per ton for mining.

erected at Beallsville at cost Of $4,000
A meeting is to be held in New Athens
on Saturday, in the interest Of the Mar

Coal miners in Tuscarawas valley have
struck against reduction Of wages. No
violence has occurred.
Among the Tippecanoe locals in the
Enterprise we find the following in regard
to the Tuscarawas Valley road:
"There has been new survey Of the
railroad from this place to Denison, this
time keeping on the east side OF Still
water all the way. This seems TO be the
tavorite route with railroad men, as it is
u dryer track, and much shorter than the
one from here to Edgefeld. But there
appears to be but little Of the spirit Of

some farms that cannot be sold for $40
per acre, that would, linear GAINESVILLE,
or any other railroad town, bring twice
that sum. They need new set Of men on
this part of the road-then the enterprise
would so forward"
The St. Clairsville Chroaiete publishes
the following;
"This community was surprised on
Tuesday, by the announcement that Mr..
Joseph Iddings, prominent farmer re-
siding two miles west Of town, had made
an assignment to John A. Taylor, for the
benefit Of his creditors. Upon inquiry
we learn that his liabilities are likely 10

It is not possible TO ascertain the exact

To the People OF South Carolina:

not only its utter disregard OF its own
official integrity while grave questions
were pending on the result of the cleo

fused to give certificates to the Demo-
cratic members of the legislature shown
by the returns of this am board to
have been elected in the counties OF
Edgefield and Laurens. This high

arouse the indignation of our long
suffering people, but l assure them
that this daring and revolutionary act
Of the board can have no legal force

The following is credited to the San

Bristow will be compelled by self-r
spect to take notice of the charges

ing the Treasury.
Now we know that official crooked.
moss prevails to a greater extent than
ever before in this country, but We are
unwilling to believe that so large a
share of the prominent men Of any
party have deliberately engaged in
plundering the Treasury. Bristow,
We have always thought, raided the
whisky thieves more as . means look.
ing to the Presidency than through
any esrecial desire to stop the frauds
on the revenue. He was entirely too
conspicuous in all he did. Having
unearthed n or two very corrupt
rings, the newspapers began to say
that he was the proper mar to receive
the Republican nomination for the
Presidency, and this nerved him on to
q moro vigorous line Of action. He
began TO think that he had struck a
lead, which, il industriously devel-
oped, would land him in the White
House, and 80 he made it warm for
the thieves accordingly. President
Grant could see and appreciate pre-
cisely what was uppermost with Bris-
tow, and hence IL was that be deter
mined to intervene with every possible
obstacle ut his command. The lead.
ing idea with the Presidenl was, that
his administration should not be pulled
down for the sole purpose Of building

WHY THE DEM OCRATS lost
CALIFORNIA.

Tho San Francisco Argus, u Demo-
cratic weekly, has an elaborate article
pointing out the auses that contribute
ed to the defeat of the democracy in
case it makes out: First, an ineffi-
eient, Indifferent and i%mpecunious
State Central Committee, whose figure
head took nc part in the campaign.
and whose component parts were
nearly all fifth wheels to the Demo-
cratic coach; second, an absence OF that
confidence on the part of the Great Mo
guls of the party as suggests the pro-
priety of putting ones hand in ones
pocket and drawing forth a handful of
twenties for the cause, or drawing a
check for a good round sum, payable
to the treasurer of the cause for party
purposes; third, the failure of Demo
Gratis generally to sustain a good, live
ly little Democratic paper like the
campaign Herald and the argus /;
fourth, the absence from the stump OF
the Haights, Casserlys, Hoges, Burch
es, Farleys and other big oratorieal
guns of the party, and the compulsory
sending forth OF sophonioric, blatant,
windy orators, whose efforts
made no votes, and only served
as targets for the enemy" We
are of the opinion that the
Argus has omitted the prime cause of
the disaster. Had Morton, Sargent
and Gorham remained in the East
California would undoubtedly have
gone Democratic. They are the boys
who cooked the Democratic goose be-
yond the Sierras. The nomination of
Piper for Congress was also a mistake.
The name of Doctor Schorb would
have added great strength to the ticket
while that of Piper proved a source Of
weakness. We doubt, however,
whether anything could haze been
done to save the State with the trio
mentioned on the ground.
