SOUTH CAR0lINA'S VOTE DECLARED
REPUBLICAN ELECTORS CHOSEN
Election of State and County Officers
and Congressman Certified.
The Board Of Canvassers Adjourned
Sine Die.
Especial to tho New Orleans Republican,.

COLUMBIA, 5. G., November 90, 1876.
Tae Board OF State CanVassers adjourned
sine die to-day.
The statute defining their powers and
duties limits their sittings TO ten days.
This period began at twelve noon of Fri
day, the tenth, and, emitting Sundaye, ex-
pired to-day at ncon.
Before adjourning tie board certified
their determination, according to the sta
tute. that tho Republican Presidential
electors were duly eleotsd. and certificates
were accordingly Issued.
They then proceeded to perform the same
duty as to State officers, county officers,
members Of Congress and of the Legisla.
ture.
They refused TO make any determination
or issue certificates as to Edgefeld aud
Laurens counties, on the ground of manifold
frauds, violence and irregularities.
This gives the Republicans msiority of
four in the Hause of Representatives, and
five in the Senate.
The Supreme Court ordered the canvass
ers to certify thu election of all members of
the Legislature who appeared on the face
of the returns to be elected.
This order has not yet reached the can
vassers; and as the board is not longer in
legal existence the order Of the court seems
likely to be nugatory.

For Governor-Packard l63, Nichols 5l9.
General Anterson-That is all right.
President Wells Send it over to the
clerk.
The returns of the parish of jackson
were next canvassed.
General Anderson-The returns were
sent By mail November 26, to the Secretary
Of State, and by him turned over to the
board. There are seven polls here. The
consolidated statement was sworn to be-
fore William NJ. Falls, supervisor of regis.
tration, and bofore NJ. Dickson, clerk of the
eleventh district court, parish of jackson.
The remarks are as follows:
The above report contains names of per-
sons voted for at various polls in the parish
except at poll Elk. Twenty two votes were
cast tor Hayes and Wheeler personally.
There were no votes cast at this poll for the
Hayes and Wheeler electors. The election
passed off peaceably and quietly, there be-
ing no riots or disturbances to my knowl-
edge whatever.
There were LOG ballots in the box in poll
number six: The list of voters as sworn to
is only los, there being one more vote in
tho box than there were names on the POLL
list.
Samuel j. TildeD, for President, received
81 votes at this poll, and Hendricks s.,
McEnery 96, Wickliffe 96, and the balance
90.
The poll is all in form; only they say
that they cast LOG, and the polling list has
only los.
President Wells-There must have been
double ballots somewhere.
On the proposition Of General Ander-
son the board took up poll No. l, and
went regularly through the polls OF the
parish, comparing the telly sheet with the
consolidated returns. 1t appeared that in
poll No. eight colored men voted the
Democratic ticket, and there were twenty
six names on the poll list and 25 votes tor
electors.
When the board reached poll No. again
President Wells suggested that the vote be
all compiled by poll.
General Anderson-The poll list of poll
No. z is not signed. What Is the PROPOSE
ton with reference to it2
President Wells-Have the return COM

Amusementg.

Theatre gocrs can not complain of a lack
of good entertainment at the Varieties
Theatre. The company is full, and capable
of producing pieces requiring strong casts.
The first week of the season was inau-
gurated by playing the most popular
comedy of the day. The comedy was fol-
lowed by "Rose Michel" one of the best
acting dramas of modern authorship. This
drama, produced with elegant scenery, still
holds the boards, and will be performed for
the last time on Sunday night. The open
ing of the Varieties Theatre on Sunday
nights will be a new departure for that
house, and will probably prove successful
in a pecuniary point, since Sunday night
performances have the sanction of custom,
and accommodate a large class of people
who can not attend the theatre on other
nights. The sensation for next week will
be the appearance of Mr.. Sothern, who acts
here on Monday night for the first time in
very many years. The box sheets for
Sothern's nights are now open.

General Anderson-The returns are not

mark on the wrapper; nothing but the
name Of the parish. On the inside there
are tally sheets. statements of votes and
consolidated returns. The remarks on the
consolidated statement are to the effect
