LOCAL MATTERS.
eArHEn1Na UP THE STATE ARMS.

The Adiutant and Inspector General has
issued an order calling in the State arms in
this County, and directing Capt. M. P
Tribble, of Belton, to take charge OF them
He is collecting them up slowly, but has
met with considerable hindrance in the dis
charge of his orders.
On Wednesday detachment of the Bel
ton Rifle Malitia Company, commanded by
Capt. Tribble, came to Anderson to collect
these guns as directed, and upon their arri-
val considerable excitement was occasioned
by the interfere nee of Gen. ]. w. Harrison,
who claimed the right to collect the guns,
and disputed the right Of Capt. Tribble to
gather them up. He had evidently been in
communication with the Adjutant Generals
Office, but upon what grounds we are not
informed, as he is neither an officer nor
member of any militia company. There
was no difficulty nor boisterous conduct on
the part of the company who came for the
guns, but they think General Harrison's un-
calleu for interference with their business
was entirely gratuitous, to express it mildly.
Both parties telegraphed to Columbia for
instructions, and Capt. Tribble received an
answer, informing him that it was his duty
to collect the guns.
Everything was quietly done, and the
colored people would, from the beginning,
have given up their arms without trouble,
had there been no unjustifable meddling by
parties not concerned in the matter. The
whole stir was originated, we believe, for
political effect, and deserves the unqualified
condemnation of all our citizens.

AN OUTRAGE.

J. H. Ellison, who was arrested many
months since on a charge of robbing the
United States mail. was tried and acquitted
in the United States Court at Greenyille,
but because the Grand Jury failed to find
true bill on one of the counts in the indict-
ment, although the evidence under it was
given on the trial, the detectives have had
him rearrested under that count and COM
mitted to JAIL to await trial at some future
term of the Court. This is an oppression
Of an humble citizen, which calls aloud for
condemnation at the hand Of every free man.
The government does not desire that per-

of Potassium and Iron, and is the
most efficacious medicine yet known
for the diseases it is intended to cure.
Its ingredients are so sklfully
combined that the full Alternative
effect of each is assured, and while
it is so mild as to be harmless even
to children, it is still so effectual as
to purge out from the system those
impurities and corruptions which
develop into loathsome disease.
The reputation it enjoys is derived
from its cures, and the confidence
which prominent physicians all over
the country repose in it proves their
experience of its usefulness.
Certificates attesting its virtues
have accumulated, and are con-
stantly being received, and as many
of these cases are publicly known,
they furnish convincing evidence Of
the superiority of this Sarsapalllla
over every other alternative medicine.
So generally is its superiority to any
other medicine known that we need
do no more than to assure the public
that the best qualities it has ever
possessed are strictly maintained.

THE FENCE LAW ELECTION.

According to the advertisement Of the
County Commissioners, an election upon
the question OF embracing the terms offered
by the new Act relative to fencing in certain
portions of our State, was held throughout
Anderson County. The two forms of ballot
prescribed under the authority given by the
Act were as follows: Those who desired
the changed were required to vote ballot
with "Fence in Stock" written or printed
on it, and those opposed with "Fence in
Crop" written or printed on it. The form
of ballot being technical and particularly
described, no votes were counted in the elec-
ton, which were not cast in accordance with
the requirements of the order for the cleo
ton. In this action we learn that the man
ayers and commissioners have very able
legal advice to sustain their action. The
