funds collected from the EMPLOYEES
OF The Government, and edited b.
Zach. Chandler and Don Cameron,
has this to say about the "coored
element in South Curoina":
South Carolina has given birth
to Il race Of women who, if their
skin be dark, have sharp wits and
warm hearts. The danger in which
they stood, from the possibility OF III.
election Of I'ildcn or Wade Hampton
being accomplished by fraud, in
duccd them TO perform deeds ofhr.-
very that made November 7, 1876,
red-lcttcr day III their history.
They suffered 10 colorcd voter
within their reach to be controlled
by Democrats and made to vote for
IiIdcn and Wade Hampton. They
plckctcd the roads to the polls. OF.
ten they saw colorcd man in Il
wagon or other vehicles driven by Il
Democrat to vote for Democrats.
Not awagon or buggy passed them
for that purpose; The women seized
the horses heads, and COMMUNICATIVE
inundated negro to get out. The
horse was taken out Of the shafts, and
the colorcd voter taken tc the polls
and made to vote the Republican
ticket by his enthusiastic female cs-
cort.
Wade Hampton lakes pride in
saying that he spared The life Of
Governor Chamberlain. Hampton

MUSICAL FESTIVAL OF 1878.
An official PromunciamentO.

An Oh1Ach41 KrOmumCAAhmentOs
The following is the official circular
containing the announcement Of the
May Musical Festival, to be given in
this city next year,
''The third Of the great May Musical
Festival will take place at the opening
| of the Springer Music Hall In May, 1878.
1.-THE splendid triumph achieved at the
| two previous festivals have given them
| national reputation. 1t is proposed TO
make the festival OF 1873 yet more CON-
plete and attractive in every respect-in
| the character Of the music to be per-
| formed, the soloists, and orchestra and
| chorus.
TO SINGERS.
"This notice 10 addressed to singers
with the view to their taking part in the
Chorus Festival OF 1878. This chorus
now consists Of the Cincinnati Har-
monic Society, Cincinnati M@nnerchor
Society, Dayton Philharmonic Society,
Hamilton Harmonic Society and Urbana
Choral Society, comprising In all five
hundred accomplished and trained
singers. These societies, for several
months, have been practicing the music
for the festival, and 1T Is required OF
Them that all their members taking part
in the great chorus should be competent
to sing the music to be performed.
'Thls chorus OF five hundred voices
would answer the requirements OF the
occasion, but with the unequaled sa-
pacity OF the new hall there VIII be room
Ior a larger number. 1t is desirable that
the additional singers should not only
be OF superior attainment, but that they
shall join some one OF the societi al
| ready in the chorus. The reason for
| this advice is obvious. Cultivated musi-
| clans know how difficult it is to sing the
| music of these festivals without careful
preparation and frequent rehearsal.
Even should singers obtain admission
into the chorus at later day, 1t would
be unjust to themselves to attempt W do
| what can not we'll be accomplished, and
| yet more unjust to the singers already
in the chorus, by obliging the repetitio IL
OF works which they have already mas
tered.
"All singers who do not join the chorus
as members of musical societies Will be
subject TO careful examination.
"Ihe programme for vocal works em-
braces: An original ode, composed for
the opening OF The new hall; the oratorio
of Messiah, by Handel; the great mass
by List; an arrangement Of Que Of
Wagneps grand operas; one or more
choral works, not yet selected. Tie
time for the practice OF these grand COM
positions is Short. This period includes
the few remaining months OF the pres
| ent season, and those of the next. Sing
ers are again urged, as soon Us possible,
to take the proper steps to join the
| chorus oil the festival OF 1878.

William Conmollv,s Death,

The inquest begun last evening on the
body of the lad William Connolly, who
on the 9TH OF February was run over by
street car No. 12, Of Route No. 10, and
who died at the Hospital, was concluded
this morning. Connolly's injuries con-
sisted of fracture OF the left arm,
shoulder and both claYicle5. He had
also received internal injuries. In addi-
zion Inflammation of the right lung had
set III q few days age, and this brought
on his death.
The manner in which he got under the
wheels of the car was as follows: Con-
molly got on the front platform and
stood on the step. He and the driver
were arguing about something when
Connolly swung his arm around and lost
his foot hold. Then he let go his other
hand and fell backward upon the track.
The driver could not check the car in
time to avoid the accident.
The jury returned verdict that the
deceased came to his death from inflan-
nation OF the right lung, superinduced
by injuries received by being run over
by Car No. II Of Route 10; sand we fur
tNerfnd that the driver is not 10 blame

BLUE GLASS,

A little sign made of the appropriate
material has just been displayed in Park
place on which are the appropriate
words, "Blue Glass" "We are selling
1000 per cent. more or this glass than
we used to-" said a gentleman inside the
store. Everybody wants it, and we
have been obliged 10 retail 1t as an &C.
commodation. Presidents OF colleges
send for it, the managers of charitable
institutions send for it, and ladies send
and get it. Sometimes they come them
selves. They tell us bow large the panes
in their windows are, and we sell them
the glass cut to the proper size. Some
have their whole windows regluzed with
it, and others buy one or two panes aud
tack them in over the other glass;"
"Are you a convert, sirP'
son, yes, we have great confidence in
the curative powers Of this glass. Ips

HIS VALENTTNR.

Big English, the bOotblack, is not what
might be called boy OF beauty, but he
is good boy. His heart is located just
righL. and it beats just the right number
OF times per minute. AS he yesterday
stood in front OF window filed with
valentines he was beard to muse:
''Tw0 cents apiece, eh, and comic at
that. Well, Pm the boy who has four
cents laid away for this occasion, and
here goes'to make two souls happy"
He entered the store and looked over
large number Of valentines, and finally
selected one Tor his mother.
1t was printed in seven beautiful
ooIors, and represented a woman holding
Iour children in her arms and rocking
three moro In cradle.
"Ihat represents our family in the
days gone by, before any OF us were able
TO sell papers or black boots" EXPLAINED
the boy. "Mother and l doL't always
agree on certain points, and there are
days when | dol't feel like going home
10 dinner, but can rise above partisan
ship on such all occasion as this"
IL took more time to select the next
one. 1t was smaller and neaLer, and
represented a sad-taced girl sitting upon
the sad sea shore.
SIS it Tor your sisterp asked the
Gealer as Ne pun IL III al envelope.
"I-I can't say as it is," replied the
boy. "She's kind of lame girl, you
know-father failed-mother committed
lopement-family SORT - disorganizeG,
but she's A l, she is, and Pm kindet
lending her my influence till the family
comes up again."
"Case OF love, / suppo. .e,' said the
dealer.
"P-purty near it," faltered the boo :
black. ~ kinder hang around her house
a good deal, and she kinder appears on
the front steps, and kinder feel weak
and shaky. 'Tain't nuthin' to be
ashamed OF, and I know it, but here
comes little Pete, and want you to tell
hlm that Pm gettiT these valentines on
speculation. He hain't got no wealth
nor culture, aud he'd be mean enough TO
lacerate my feelings afore a hull crowd"
