A BONANZA OF WEALTH IN
SOUTH CAROLINA.
From the Philadelphia Enquire

AN'h NLI hllhutipIlld enquirer
The most remarkable instance of a geo.
logical discovery, revolutionizing dis
trict and enriching a state, has occurred
in the development of what is known as
the Ashley river Is. C,l deposits of what
seems to be the remains OF cartilaginous
fish, especially oithe shark family, though
they also contain numerous bones and
teeth OF cetaceans, or whalelike
animals, many of which
were larger, or as large, as the whales
found in the seas Of the present time.
From the number Of their bones AID
teeth eXhumed or washed out by The
waves of the ocean, they must have ex>
listed In large "shoals" and. together
with the enormous sharks of that age,
animals rivaling the whale in size, must
have constitutcda vast marine army OF
ravenous 'ilesh>eatersn and capacious
"scavengers" OF the Eoccne Ocean. Large
ships and steamers are daily seeking
cargoes from the Ashley, Stone, Wando,
Asheppoo and other rivers, and the STATE
OF South Carolina Ia now reaping greal
harvest. Over S8000,000 have already
been Invested by Northern capitalists In
mining and manufacturing the rocks into
rich fertilizers, and many persons who,
IN 1857, were unbelievers, have now their
thousands Invested IN 1t. This is slm.

DEVELOPMENT OF the phosphate rocks OF

The greatest outrage ever perpetra,cd
in this country, was consummated on
last Friday night, in declaring r. B.
Hayes President Of the United States,
in opposition TO the clearly expressed
will OF large majority Of the American
| people, rs given on the Sth Of last No
yember, when Samuel J. Tilden vas
fairly and honestly chosen President by
majority Of 264,OOO over white and
back voters and a majority ofone million
OF the white vote and by an honest cleo
toral majority over Hayes the usurper
now in the seat
Hayes is not an honest man, else he
would not accept sn Office which ne
knows was stolen for him. He can
never rest his head upon his pillow with
ont 4 conscience that smites him "a one
who committed 4 great crime agains; his
country. He is not entitled to the place
four years, nor three nor one year, no,
not one minute and at no time is it the
duty ofthe majority to let him remain
there, ifthey see fit to oust him from a
place 10 which q large majority Of the
American people chose another. II il is
right TO let Mr. Hayes have undisputed
possession Of the presidential chair, then
the rebellion Of George Washington
against the wrongs that the colonies suf-
fered from George III was wrong, and it
was equally the duty Of the revolutiona-
ry fathers 10 submit to the wrong. Our
rcsorted to the sacred right
Of revolution TO redress their wrongs and
cast of the yoke Of the oppressor, and
hatright is as good, and as sacred, in
1877 as it was in I776.
Ifthis thing is to stand, then the
that the majority shall rule is
a farce and a fraud, and a returning |
board Of scoundrels can alter returns and |
throw out honest majorities and your
Bradleys and Morton's and Edmundses,
will resolve that no evidence oifraud be
received" and they declare who shall be
2resident-and the majority must sitby
With folded hands and say the1l swal-
ow il. This yillainous principle and
would find us to-day in the
laws Of the British lions If the revolu-
ionary fathers had not risen in rebel
ion. Their example viii ever be fit
me TO follow, and when the American
'eople no longer know how TO redress so
lamnable 4 wrong as has been commit
ed within the last few days, they are
unworthy the blessings Of the free gov
rnment that was secured them by the
ebellion Of Washington and his compa-
riots.

is lS5 miles. Same by way Of our road
dirsot through to Tyrone is los miles

points is an important consideration.

4 cHARGE AGALNsr GARFzELp


Garfield is an Ohio Congressman Of
the Madison Wells>Chandler stripe. He
was one Of the who perured himself
and voted against the :, TO steal the
Presidency for Returning Board HAYES
As to the purity Of this gentleman's
character. the following intelligence
from Washington on 2S ult., will
show:
A resolution has been prepared on
evidence taken by the Glover commit
tee, for the expulsion Of General Gar
field from the House on the charge OF
having corruptly taken money while a
member OF Congress. General Garfield
has asked and will appear before the
committee tomorrow 10 make an ex>
PLANTATION. The charge is not unfamiliar
here, and first came out in the District
investigation, wherein il was testified
that he received fee Of 5000 for his
influence in obtaining a contract from
the Board OF Public Works for wood
pavement. His defense is that he wrote
an argument for Il. c. Parsons on the
merits ofthe pavement; and was paid by
him for Il, but it is charged by the COM
mittee that in a suit in Court the con-
tract of Garfield with Parsons as attor-
ney for the pavement contractors has
been decided 10 be a corrupt one, on the
ground that it was made contingent on
the necessary appropriations being made
by Congress for this work.

A New York bull-dozer has come TO
grief In October last George b. Petit.
bone, the superintendent Of the Howe
Sewing Machine Company, undertook
to give Hayes and Wheeler lift. With
this view he issued n circular 10 the
thousands of agencies Of his company
throughout the United States, instruct
ing them, in so many words, to discharge
their subordinates who should vote the
Democratic ticket. The reasons given
were that 'the success OF the Democratic
party will be the ruin Of the country" !"
and that this is struggle between the
intelligent and respectable portion Of the
community and the ignorant and roughs
and rowdies Of the cities" Whether
this intimidation policy was carried out
we have not the means of knowing. but
here comes the news that Mr.. Pettibone
has absconded, with the report that he
is defaulter to the amount of $4,000
SO much for one arrogant claimant Of
