This makes a total of 1876, while only
1856 are necessary to elect. The latest
kilograms last night announced that Tllden
had also carried South Carolina by from
two to three thousand.
In the cases of Florida which is claimed
by the Democrats to have gone by 225
Democratic majority, Louisiana which has
gone Democratic by from 10000 to $4,000,
and South Carolina, those states are also
claimed by the Republicans. This is impor-
tant from the fact that all three States
have Radical Returning Boards, who like
that of Louisiana in former elections,
may perpetrate frauds looking to the
returning of Hayes Electors. This would
leave the Electoral vote of Tilden at 1S4
or one short of an election. The Washing
ton correspondent of the Baltimore
ssSunn says. boasts were openly made
in Washington, Wednesday, that this
would be done by the Louisiana Board, and
a telegram from Mr.. Tilden's Secretary.
received in Staunton yesterday by Capt.
w. L. Bumgardner, states that from the
withholding of the declaration of the vote
Of Louisiana, it is suspected that they
were attempting to falsify the returns.
Already there are statement that the Board
will throw out some parishes on account
of intimidation"
It is to be hoped, however, for the sake
of the country, that these rumors of the
intended action of the returning boards of
the States named will not become facts.
In Virginia the Conservative majority
will reach $4,000. and the Constitutional
Amendments are adopted. Augusta is
most likely the banner county, as she has
given $500 majority, and Mt. Meridian is
her banner precinct: not having Repub-
ican vote. The only Congressional dis
trict carried by the Radicals III Virginia,
was the 4th, the black district, to which
troops were sent.

IMPosTER ON THE RAMPAGE.-We are
reliable informed that a man calling him
self Kennedy has been travelling in this
county and i'll Albemarle, claiming to be
the authorized agent Of Mr.. James Z.
Tannehill, nurseryman, Of Staunton, Va.
to sell fruit trees; that he had obtained
orders for trees and tried to pocket the
money; that Mr.. Tannehill had been writ
ten to about him; that he repudiated Ken
nedy and says that he is an lmpostor who
has stolen several fruit catalogues and
order books from him. Such scamps should
be arrested and the law rigidly enforced
against them. The people should be on
their guard, and see that they deal Only
with responsible agents.
Since the above was set up, we have
learned the following particulars Of his
operations. LII Nelson county he has
forged orders in the names of John Tur-
pin, $40; Henry Halter, Sis; John J. Nor
ris, 81, 80; j. g. Petit, $3.50, besides a
number of others. In many instances he
sold the orders and pocketed the money.
He has done the same thing in Albe-
marie county. He forged the name of
Capt. Peyton S. Coles to an order for apple
trees, on j. +. Tannehill u Co., Staunton,
and sold it for as much cash as he could
get. In other cases he succeeded by his
plausibility in collecting money ON orders
he had taken.
He also fraudulently claimed to be agent
for Smith Il Woodward. We trust he will
soon be enabled to contemplate the world
through barred windows.-Nelson Va. J

THE "A WIS.,"
&hTisHiamste&. ST. Gseix.
Wednesday 8M March 1876.

His ExceIlency acting Governor Stake
mann returned from a short visit to st.
Thomas, on Sunday afternoon, in the
Schooner "VigiIant". BY the same oppor-
tunlty the European Packet was received.
OF the general news, such as it is, we give
some Chips below. II is, Of course,
nearly all anticipated by the St. Thomas
and other kilograms we publish in
every issue. But there is one item
at least by this packet which has not
been forestaIled by the rapidly of that
medium, and one in which we are as
much if not more interested than in the
news should there ever be such-of a
rise in the price of sugar aud moIasses to
the double Of he present standard. The
piece of intelligence alluded TO is, that the
Central Factory Bill before the Diet has
passed through all its stages in the Lower
House, and is not expected to meet any
difficulties on It's way through the Upper
House. There is not an individual in this
island with even the slightest claim TO
intelligence, who docs not know what that
means, does not know that It means
another step toward the attainment of
Improvements of the greatest importance,
aud which it was beyond our power to get
introduced in any other manner.-We
said another step, not the last one, for
there is yet something to be done, even
when this Bill has passed both houses OF
the Diet, and received the Royal sanction.
For then there is the amount to be raised
outside, by private subscription, an amount,
too. equal to the sum OF 2 900, 900 Crowns,
which the Bill grants as a loan 10 the
Factory Company. This amount, accord
ing to all accounts, is very difficult to
raise. The money market in Copenhagen
is tight, close, dull, everything that is bad,
and people here have thrown away their
best chance by not accepting the Credit
Association. Through that institution we
could with the greatest ease have raised
oEe-half at least OF the whole amount on
shares, not much more than $500, 900.
The thing is, however, gone, not to come
back, and it is proverbialIy useless to cry
over split milk. The object to be accom-
pIished by the Credit Association was to
make the Factories as much as possible a
local concern. The same can of course be
done. though necessarily on a much small
er scale, after SO many calamitous years as
we have had.-by direct subscription.
Why should not parties having "a little
money" be it in the banks at 4 per cent,
or in old stockings at no percentage
at oil, invest it in shares 10 the Fsctoryf
, 1876-03-08

And it will be so invested We have
very good reasons for believing that a good
portion of the SUN required can and will
be 'ais'd her. The Central Factory
Committee will, we suppose, be the
medium through which that pa of the
business could best be arrange aud
parties DESTROYS OF investing sh;uld take
steps to ecu a uance Of getting shares
in time.
