New Election in South Carolina and
Louisiana.

New Election in South Carolina and
Louisiana.
A party Of Republicans under the
lead of Senator "Honest" John Pat
tcrson, are attempting to induce the
President and his Cabinet to favor q
new election for State officers and
members of the Legislature in the
States of Louisiana and South Caro-
ina. This proposition however,
seems to find very little favor in Wash
ington with the Republicans and none
at all with the Democrats. The
Southern carpet-bag Republicans talk
blatantly about the fairness of the
plan and all such buncomb as Is usu-
ally INDUCED in by the defeated dis
satisfied party. The Democrats would
be great fools to consent to any such
plan for several easons. TO hold q
new election in the Spring would dis
organize the labor Of the country, and
the result, as far as the material condi-
ton Of the country would be, that we
would make half a crop, and business
of every kind would be paralyzed.
The Democrats have nothing to gain
but everything to lose by new cleo,
ton, while the Republicans, through
fraud OF BY treachery, might gain
something on us. We have had arbi'
tration enough for once. Let US hold
to what we'yegot.

AIKEN. S, c.. March +

AIKEN, s. c., March Ii.
On November 2, 1875, two quiet Ger
Mans, Haussman and Portmann, living
four miles from this place, were murder
ed, their house robbed, set on fire and
burned to ashes, with the bodies. Sus-
picion attached to five negroes-Nelson
Brown, Lucius Thomas, Adam Johnston,
John Henry Denis and Stephen Ander-
son, who were arrested. Proofs were ac-
cumulated that they were the right par
ties, and they finally made confession.
They also confessed to burning the Bap-
fist Church at Aiken and numbering a
white man named Levin, and other
crimes. On January S they were tried by
ajury composed of twelve negroes, con-
yicted and by the Court, sentenced to be
hung on the 18th of March. Yesterday
Governor Hampton respited Anderson
for thirty days. This morning the execu-
ton Of the four-Nelson Brown, Lucius
Thomas, Adam Johnston and John Hen
~ Denis took place in the presence of
abont 5000 people. The Sheriff had a
posse Of 100 armed men guarding the
yallows. The prisoners were attended by
preachers of their own color. All the
criminals addressed the crowd, confess
ing the murder and each confessed his
share in The crime. The drop fell at IL
o'clock, and the murderers expired al
most without a struggle. The crowd
then dispersed. Perfect order prevailed.
