WALHALLA EXCITED.
Alex. Bryce, Jr, United States Post
matter and Chamberlain's Auditor,
Arre.ted for Larceny.

At Walhalla on the 9th inst, before
Trial Justice Morgan, preliminary hear
ing was had of the case of the State
against A. Bryce, Jr., and w. K. Bryce,
charged with grand larceny in having
broken into the Auditors Office and stolen
the books of the same. The defendant,
A. Bryce, Jr., was not present. The Triaf
Justice, on hearing the evidence as to
the other defendant, decided to send the
case up to the Court of Sessions. The
defendant, A. Bryce, Jr.. at the time he
had the books in his possession, claimed
to be County Auditor under the appoint
ment Of Chamberlain, and had demanded
of the County Commissioners the key and
property of the Office, which had been re-
fused. No proof as to the person who
entered and removed the books from the
Office has yet been found, the case of the
State resting on the loss and the posses
sion of the lost property by the defen-
dant. The case will doubtless be COM
plicated one, involving the question of
intention, the right to the property as
Auditor, &C., on the part Of the defen-
dant. The connection of w. K. Bryce
with the matter results from the pouch
containing two of the alleged books being
in his hands at the time Of the execution
of the search warrant. Alex. Bryce, Jr.,
who, like other Radicals, was fond of
holding rs many Offices as he could get,
was Postmaster at Walhalla, as well as
Chamberain's Auditor, aud he used the
mail bags to conceal the stolen books.
The constable seized one OF those bags
containing the goods, and it is still held
by the Trial Justice in charge of the case.
The compound Auditor and Postmaster
was highly enraged at this indignity to
the United States as represented by the
mail bag, and thereupon proceeded to
illuminate dire threats against the offend
ing official in the following letter, which,
take it all in all, is pretty fair compo-
sition for Chamberlain appointee.:
WALHALLA, Feb. l, IT.
Reyed F. NJ. Morgan Sir, it become
my duty to Demand from you the U. S.
State Pouch aad Lock and contencts
taken by fource by entiring my office as
know such proputy is in dispute as heve
seen in you Office in Looking over the
Post office Law I find it is violtion for
eny one by Swrn oficies of the U S State

partment I strikely forwun you or any
one from tumpering with them as they
are the Pouch that l send my mail in if
they are not returnd in the same condis-
ton to me this evening l take proper
slept to git them word to the wise is
sufficient Waiting you answer. Very
respectfully, Yous,
ALEX. BRYCE, JR.,
Pm Walhalla, S. G.
The Trial Justice very properly replied
to the threat that when the stolen prop
erty was taken out of the bag and surren-
dered, the bag would be returned.
The prosecution for larceny was insti-
tuted after the writing of the above letter.
Alex. Bryce escaped from the constable
who arrested him, and has disappeared.
w. K. Bryce has been bound over to ap.
pear for trial at the Court of General
Sessions.

The QUESTION sErrLED.-There has

The QUESTION SETTLED.-There has
been a controversy between the Charles
ton Journal Of Commerce. Columbia Regis
ter, Greenville Mews and Union Times, as
to whom the credit ofiorignating the
straightout movement in this State be-
longs. . Each journal claimed it, but the
Charleston Ne,cs and Courier; constituting
itself a Returning Board, threw them all
out and counted in the Anderson hteNi-
gencer and the Edge6eld Adve' tiser. We
intended to ask for a recanvass, feeling
assured that when Pickens was heard
from the Sentinel would come in ahead of
the Journal of Commerce, Register and
Greenville Ne'rs, on the grounds of
seniority, as the Sentinel WAS established
before either of them, and did absolutely
refuse to endorse the candidacy of: either
Tomlinson or Green and contended all
the while for straight-out ticket. AS
to the MtelKgencer, Times and Advertiser,
we did not know how to get over them
unless we alleged fraud and intimidation.
But the Winnsboro Me,rs and Herald has
settled the question and relieved us of,
perhaps, long and exciting contest.
The News and Herald says that to Edward
F. Stokes, of Greenville, and Willis
Goode, colored, of Fairfield, O'Conner
Democrats, belong the honor. We throw
up the sponge and retire from the field
chagrined and demoralized.-Pickens Sen

The GOSPEL of Merit.

Where there is so much rivalry as in the
manufacture of family medicines, he who
would succeed must give positive and con-
vincing proof of merit. This is an age of
inquiry. People take nothing for granted.
They must know the 'whys" and "where-
fores" before acknowledging the superiority
of one article over another. Among the
few preparations that have stood the test,
those manufactured by R. V. Pierce, NJ. D.,
of the Worlds Dispensary, Buffalo, N. Y,
have for many years been foremost. The
truth of any statement made concerning
them can be easily ascertained, for Dr. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy and DR.. Pierces Golden
Medical Discovery are now prescribed by
many physicians in curing obstinate cases
of Catarrh and incipient consumption. The
Discovery has no equal in curing Coughs,
Colds, Bronchial and Nervous Affections.
1t allays all irritation of the mucous mem-
brane, aids digestion, and when used with
DR.. Pierces Pleasant Purgative Pellets read
lily overcomes torpid liver and Constipation,
while the Fayorite Prescription has no rival
in the field of prepared medicine in curing
diseases peculiar to females. If you wish
to "know thyself" procure. copy of "The

The Supreme Court has not yet decided
any of the numerous cases involving the
question as to the Governor and the re-
manning State officers. The argument
has been made in various cases before
the Court, and the delay in reaching a
conclusion is quite unsatisfactory to the
public. The complication in this State
will likely gain relief so soon as the
national troubles are settled. We do
not expect any other result than that the
Supreme Court will decide in favor of
Governor Hampton, and that its decision
will be enforced, no matter who is the
President. In the meantime, Governor
Hampton is quietly absorbing all the
powers, duties and responsibilities Of the
position to which he was elected, and
Chamberlain is left with barren scep-

Judge Carpenter has filled his decision
in the injunction case against Chamber
lain and Cardozo, claiming to act as Gov
ernor and Treasurer, restraining them
from issuing checks upon the Columbia
and Charleston Banks which are the de-
positories of the public funds of the State.
1t will be remembered that a temporary
injunction was granted by Carpenter soon
after the inauguration of Gov. Hampton,
restraining these repositories from pay
ing out any funds on checks drawn by
Cardozo.. The present order continues
in force this restraint upon Cardozo and
the Banks, and "until final decree is
made" This decision covers the an
nexed points, First, that by law the State
Treasurer enters upon his official duties
when the incoming Governor is duly in-
stalled, and not until that time; second,
that the constitution requires the presence
of both Houses to open and publish the
returns for Governor, and to be present
at his installation; third, that the
Mackey House was illegal and revolu-
tionary, and all its acts are void, and
therefore no legal publication of the re.
turns has been made nor has any lawful
installation taken place. These grounds
are similar to his former decision in the
case of Peter Smith, the unpardoned con-
vict, and are now under review by the Su.
preme Court, whose decision will be
made known in few days. The effect
of Carpenters order is TO place still
further beyond the reach ofChamberlain
the funds Of the State, which are sadly
needed by the Ex-Governor to defray the
expenses of the constabulary, aid that
patriotic organization, under Dennis and
Canton, will be left to languish and
suffer. We would venture to suggest
that the Ex.Governor might circumvent
this restraining order by issuing checks
to the faithful constabulary upon Solo
mons Bank, wherein he deposited
large amount of public funds about two
years ago.

WHAT PRESIDENT GRANT SAYS.
He Hopes Hayes will be Declared
Elected, but Thinks there Is a Good
Deal Of Uncertainty about II.
WASHINGTON. February IL,


The President tonight, in the course
of conversation, said it had appeared to
him that the Democrats of the House. by
abruptly taking recess yesterday, in-
tended to obstruct the counting of the
Electoral vote but on his being informed
that Alany prominent Democrats had dis
avowed any intention to engage in mere
dilatory proceedings, and that tomorrow
they would take action in the Florida
case, and that their delay was merely for
the purpose of carefully examining all
the papers as they appeared this morning
in print, he said he was glad to hear it,
as nothing could be gained by resisting
the regular order of business. In speak
ing of the intentions of the Democrats to
make an objection to the counting of the
electoral vote of Illinois ON account of the
alleged ineligibility of Mr.. Chaffee. one
of The Electors, he said that he could not
see how the vote of the State on that ac-
count could be rejected, and if the objec-
tions were made to Mr.. Chafee only, the
Democrats would derive no benefit from
it. He thought that it was but fair that
if State had voted for either Hayes or
Tilden the full vote of such State should
be counted according to its political COM
plexion; and although be hoped that
Hayes and Wheeler would be declared
elected, be felt somewhat uncertain as to
the results, because he could not foresee
what would he done in the case of Louis
lana. 1t would be recollected that four
years ago, after his canvass for re-elec-
ton. the two houses resolved not to count
the electoral vote of that State, and, al
though the reasons in the two cases might
not be similar, there seemed to be some
uncertainty upon the subject. Should
the vote possibly be excluded, Hayes and
Wheeler would, in that case, be defeated,
but Tilden and Hendricks not elected,
the latter not having received majority
OF the votes of all the Electors appointed,
and, therefore, the election for President
would be thrown into the House Of Rep
resentatives, leaving the Senate to elect
the Vice President. But be this as it
might, he was satisfied there would be 10
disturbance of the peace, as both parties
bad committed the determination Of dig.

the representation of the superintendents
that they had no provisions or money for

Likewise made in behalf of third State

that the trustees and officers of the

sion also has decided, and hereby decides
and reports, that the four persons first
before named are duly appointed electors
in and by the said State of Florida.
The ground of this decision, stated
briefly, as required by said act is as fol-
lows:
That it is not com mpetent, under the con-
stitution and the law rs it existed at the date
of the passage of said act, to 60 into evil
dence ahunde, the papers opened by the
President of the Senate, in the presence
of the two houses, to prove that other
persons than those regularly certified by
the Governor of the State of Florida, in
and according to the determination and
declaration of their appointment by the
board of State canvassers of said State,
prior to the time required for the per-
formance of their duties, had been ap-
pointed electors, or by counter proof to
show that they had not, and that all pro-
ceedings of the courts or acts of the Leg
islature, or of the Executive of Florida,
subsequent to the casting of the votes OF
the electors on the prescribed day, are
inadmissable for any such purpose.
As to the objection made to the eligi-
bility of Mr.. Humphreys, the commits
sion is of opinion that, without reference
to the question of the effect of the vote
of an ineligible elector, the evidence
does not show that he had the Office OF
Shipping Commissioners on the day when
the electors were appointed.
The commission has also decided, and
does hereby decide and report, that as a
consequence of the foregoing, and upon
the grounds stated, neither of the papers
purporting to be certificates of the elec-
toral votes of said State of Florida, num-
bered 2 and 8, by the commission, and
herewith submitted, are the certificates
or the votes provided for by the constitu-
ton of the United States, and that they
ought not to be counted as such.
Done at Washington the day and year
first above written.
