fellOW cOuntrymen: we nave sought to
place before you briefly, and in true colors,
the condition Of South Carolina; the wron.
OF her people; their patient forbearance aud
their new born hopes. Not long ago Cover
nor Chamberl in, in transport of truth
fulness and gebutue enthusiasm, proclaimed
to the people Of the country the startling
fact that the civilization Of the Puritan and
the cavli-r OF the Ronudheai and Hugup-
not, Is in peril in South Carolina. He spoke
these words under the inspiration of his
bei ter angel, for truer words he never spoke
and they are as true now rs then; the peril
is greater now than then, Tor when the
worst elements Of socey enter into control
OF Government, IL there not much reason
10 apprehend some catastrophe which we
hardly dare to contem plate.

HOW THEY DID 1T IN SOUTH CARO-.
LIMA.

The fair election held by the Tilden
Reformers of South Car DINA is vividly
illustrated by the following in a private
letter from young Cincinnatian, dated
Columbia, S. c., Nov. IS, addressed
TO friend al home:
DEAR FRED: This State should
have gone 25. 600 majority Republican.
But the poor nigs have caught hell.
They have, in many cases. been com
oelied to vote against their wishes or
go hungry this winter. In many places
they were sent out in the country after
cotton. ard it was SO arranged that
hey could not get back in time to vote.
| know one railroad company that beat
800 cut of their votes, by leaving trains
behind and by running by stations
where the. voting places were located
and ty sending men to one end of tn.
road two days before, and not gixii.p
them passes to get back on in time 70
vote. In one place JEey caught three
r,igs down q well and eur the rope and
left them there until the polls closed.
Some were caught out in the woods
and tied to trees. o hers were scared
of by being shot at in the woods.
The whites would go on horseback
from oue county to another and vote

made a clean breast OF the whole
IthtBg showing a most terrible state oI
afiairs.
Il appears that Alexander, who i.
not yet nineteen years of age, has been
intimate with Mrs Smi Ia for the las,
four years. The latter Is thirty-on,
years old and mother of three children.
The two conspired together to murder
Smith, obtain possession of the prog
erty, and enjoy unrestrained intimacy
Several plots failed or were abandoned
when, finally Mrs. Smith arranged with
her brother in law, Cargin. 10 come on
and dispose of her husband for $500
Mrs. Cargin, it appears, co operated.
Alexander, who had been absent,
Stopped on the 18th at a hotel in Ches
aiming village, and in the dead of night
left the hotel through the uinslow and
went to the house of Smith, nearly
two miles distant, where be was mel
by Cargis. The two. armed with clubs
repaired to Smiths room, where be
was asleep, and best him to death.
The body was then carried TO the barn,
which was set on fire.
Many Of the details were truly hor
rify ing, but thesabove is the subsancs
of the statement. IL was decidedly q
cold blooded affair. Alexander told
his story in a cool, straight forward
manner, without much hesitation and
but apparently little affected. Cargin,
who sat in the court room during ths
time appeared but little Affected

CLOUD BANNERs or THE ALPS.

Among the most exquisite scenss
which delight the eyes Of the Earopeaa
traveller are these wonderful rose col
ored cloud banners, floating from the
Alpine cliffs. But It Is only in the sun
light that Nature hangs out these
beautiful tokens So it Is only 10 the
glow of health-the sunlight Of our
inner being that nature reveals those
physical cloud banners, the s'rosy
cheek" and scherry lips" to praise
which every poet of the earth has In
voked the Muse TO aid him. But they
are as rare as the cynical Hood con.
crired Chsistian charity to be. Woman
eager to retain this charm, resorts to
French art and rouge The effect is
similar to that rhich would be pro-
ducedby substituting auetioneers' aags
for the delicate glowing cloud-banners
of the Alps If woman would aid Ma
ture instead of adopting art, would
seek health instead Of yainly trying to
mask disease, she would not only win
the greatest charm of womanhood-
health-but she would avert much
misery both from herself and others.
DIR. Pierce's Fasorite Prescription has
reeeived the highest praise rom thous-
