THE BOARD OF CANVASS IN THE O. g. GUS
ToDY-A NEW 'PRoTEsT" FGoM HAMPTON.
The South Carolina Board of Canvassers
have been released from the county Jail and
transferred to the custody of the United
States Marshal. Application was yester-
day made by their counsel to Judge
Bond, in the United States Circuit
Court, for writs of babeds corpus in their
behalf. The Sheriff, through counsel, de-
INJURED to the jurisdiction of the court, and
time was given to prepare argument.
Wednesday morning was the time fixed up
on, and the Democratic lawyers telegraphed
a request to Chief Justice Waite that he be
present at the hearing of the case, to which
he replied that he could not Pending the
hearing, the prisoners were turned over to
the Marshal. A protest has been drawn up
and sent to the President, by Wade Hamp-
ton and number of other Democrats,
against the Federal troops being placed un-
der command of Gov. Chamberlain at the
organization of the Legislature to-day.

A Sunday saloon right.

In New York city, a notorious place in
the Bowery, kept by "oney" Geoghegan, is
a resort for thieves and cut-throats, a COM
bination of dance-hall, concert saloon, bar
room, and general rendezvous. On Sum
day morning, about IL O'Clock, the vile FREE
quenters of the place broke out into grand
riot. Shots were fired in volleys. Desper-
ate and half drunken men with revolvers
in hand fired lndiscriminately,w while threats
and curses filled the air. TO their drum
kennees, however, and consequent unstead
mess of aim, many of them owe their lives,
as glasses, counters, walls and ceilings, in
stead Of their own bodies, received the bull
lets. Nobody was hurt, an almost miracu-
Ious result, when it is taken into considera-
ton that sixteen bullet holes perforated
the various objects in the place. A few of
the balls penetrated the doors and went
whizzing into the street, but luckily struck
no passer by. The police, hearing the riot,
hurried to the place and arrested fifteen
persons, two women and one man escaping.

Bank Burglars Beaten.

Last week, scheme to rob the national
bank at Waterville, Me-, came very near
succeeding. About midnight Wednesday
night. as George Vigue, private watchman,
was going to the bank to lunch with the
bank and town watchman, Augustus Wood,
he saw two men coming from behind the
bank building, who almost immediately at
tackled him, threatening his life if he made
any resistance. He, however, while pis-
tol was held to his head, cried 'mur-
DER" when they gave him terri
BILE blow and fed. He fired twice
at them without effect. Vigue's cry
and pistol shots brought several to his
assistance, who soon learned that Wood was
missing. Being unable to find him gen.
eral alarm was given at 1856, when a
thorough search was begun, which resulted
in finding him in horse shed in the rear
of the Catholic church, bound hand and
foot, gagged, blindfolded, and ears filled
with cotton. Wood states that he was met
on Silver street by four men, one of whom
.-said -" :" Good evening; you are the man
T's~were looking for" Then all four at
tackled him, took him to the shed, two
standing guard until the report Of Vlgue'f
pistol, when one left and soon after the

SOME OF TEE FACTS THAT WILL APPEAR IN
THE LOUISIANA CASE -oUrRAGEs THAT
SHOCK HUMANITY.
The first glimpse of the intimidation af-
fidavits which the Louisiana Republicans
are collecting is given by the New Orleans
correspondent to the Cincinnati CONNER
cidl, DR.. H. V. Redfield, who has heretofore
leaned strongly toward the Democrats in
letters, but has always been regarded as a
thoroughly candid and truthful man: ITO
night | spent some time at the Custom
House, reading the latest affidavits made.
Nineteen men were all busy copying
affidavits, which will give you some idea of
the magnitude of the business. Two
copies are taken of each affidavit-the orig
inal is for the use of the Returning Board,
one copy is for the Northern visitors, and
the other for filing away. These documents
are not printed blanks, as has been sup
posed, but each case is written out from the
statement of the witness. They vary in
length from two pages of legal cap to ten.
Some of these sworn statements are simply
horrible. If they can be sustained, the
Democrats goose is cooked. No party can
afford to have President elect
ed by such means. Most of the af-
fidavits, while not detailing hor-
rors, yet show plainly enough that there
WAS systematic intimidation. The most
horrible one in the lot is the affidavit of a
woman, who swears that on Saturday be-
fore the election, in Ouschita Parish, her
husband was taken out of bed at night and
murdered because he had been an active
Republican. His body was savagely mutt
lated in her presence, and her baby taken
from her arms and its throat cut. The ruff
fans said they wanted to finish the stock.
She was herself severely shot and cut She
gives names and details with particularly.
"Gentlemen in charge tell me that there
are yet thousands of aft lsvits to come, al
setting forth the facts of intimidation, and
some of them detailing brutal outrages
The magnitude and interests involved are
stimulating the most searching inquiry
Some of the sworn statements are weak
not setting out anything worthy Of serious
consideration, but others are terribly ex-
plicit, and give names, dates, and details
with vividness that is well nigh convinc
ing. II not true they can be disproved
but if true, there is an end to the
claim of the Democrats having carried this
State by fair MEANS"

New ORLEANS, Nov. 27.-The partisan

sessions of the Louisiana Returning Board
are strictly private; that the investiga-
ton is a Star. chamber one, and chat the
public of New Orleans has no opportunity

is uttered is taken down by official short

young man named CASTLE went to the bed
of his brother. IN the same room with his
own bed, and shot him through the head,
using a small revolver for the purpose.
The ball entered the left eye and lodged
back of the temple, and the wound was be-
lieved to be fatal. Young Castle has been
insane for some time, and has been con-
fined for time in lunatic asylum, but
has not been considered dangerous. He
seemed to comprehend what he had done,
and at once made his way to police station

On Monday of last week, Mr.. Alfred
Lewis, a young man teaching school in
Aston township, near Rhodes Mile, Della
ware county, was Joined in wedlock to q
young lady of the same neighborhood, Miss
Annie Collingsworth. On Thursday the
bridegroom visited Philadelphia in company
with his father, in order to make some pur-
chases, and while walking along the street
accidently tripped, and in falling his head
struck against the corner of doorstep.
He was picked up Immediately, insensible,
and died almost instantly. He struck on
his temple, and the force of the fall was so
great as to break his skull, from which
death resulted. Mr.. Lewis was about 23
years of age, and native of Lancaster,
Pa, and came to Aston to teach school
about the first of last September. The
lady to whom he was married was quite
young, not more than 18 years of age. Her
happiness was of short duration, and her
young husbands death coming so sudden
and unexpected has almost driven her
crazy with grief Mr.. Lewis was greatly
respected, and had gained great many
friends during the short time he had re
sided in the neighborhood.- West Chester

The New Jersey Abattoir company has

of steamers, in addition to the Cunard and
