STIFF LIFTEEs.-The grave robber,
Eugene Joiner, in an interview with q
representative Of the Leader, relates,
among other adventures, that he and one
Minor, came to Chardon for the body Of
Elmo Charter, who was killed by falling
over the precipice at Thompson Ledge;
that certain doctor furnished them before
leaving the city, with $40 to defrsy the
expenses Of shipping the body or any other
tC Cleveland, In the event Of their not re-
turning for day or two and gave instruc-
tions as to how and to whom it should be
shipped; that they there interviewed two
doctors in succession, but, being advised
that the grave was watched, one saying
that two men we're watching it with loaded
shot-guns, they concluded to return to
Cleveland without attempting the robbery.
He tells Of one trip. made last winter,
where a couple of robbers went from
Cleveland TO Hambden, in Geauga County,
where they got in with two doctors and a
medical student and bagged three "stiffs'
in one night. One was the body of
butcher, and, as the remains were being
drawn out, one Of the doctors remarked,
''I've bought meat from that fellow many
a time but now I'll sell him for meat"
Another time he heard his companions tell
what trouble they had in getting the body
of a woman out of her grave at the Chester
Cross Roads cemetery. The lady had died
Of apoplexy, and in consequence her body
was swollen to an unusual degree. There
we're four robbers in the party (two being
local doctors. and when the coffin lid was
removed the united efforts of these could
not get the body out of the hole, A happy
thought struck one of them, and in the
twinkhng of an eye several long straps were
taken from the harness and tied about the
body. The buggy was backed up, and to
this the lines were made fast, and the
horse succeeded in doing what the men had
failed in attempting. TIE remains were
drawn OUT and carried of.

The 'ssouth Carolina Plan. .

James B. Campbell, Independent
Democratic candidate for Congress
in the Charleston d strict, has writ
ten a letter iu which he explains one
trick employed by the Democratic
Legislature in South Carolina to
prevent the blacks from fairly ex-
pressing their will at the polls.
Last year the Legislature deliberate
ly went to work to reduce the num-
Der of precincts where colored vo-
ters were in the majority and to re-
arrange them in such manner sa
to preclude the possibility of their
obtaining fair play at the polls.
Mr.. Campbell says of tho effect in
Charleston and Beaufort county:
The number of precincts were re-
duced about one-third in the city
and about two-thirGs in the coun-
try, compelling the voter in some
instances to make a round journey of
even forty miles, others of twenty,
twenty-five and thirty miles, and in
the greater number of cases, five,
ten and fifteen miles. Most of the
voters are laboring men, poor, and
without the means of transportation.
In St. Andrews Parish, consist
ing of James Island and the main
territory, the poll on the main was
abolished, and that on the island
only retained, with q navigable
stream to cross and no bridge nor
regularly kept ferry,
Thus the time allowed is 720 min
utes. On Johns Island the mum.
Der of votes is not less than 1000.
There is now but one precinct, two
having been abolished. The time
therefore allowed to each voter for
the required oath, statement of
name, residence, registration and
for such questions as any one or all
of the managers may please to ask,
is less than forty seconds, less than
three-quarters of a minute.
After the 4th Of March the Senate will

A great invasion of kangarOos recently
occurred in various settled parts of Aus
tralis, especially Queensland, the animals
being, no doubt, driven from the interior
by the drought and its effects, in search Of
food. They came in thousands, devouring
everything in the shape of herbs or grain,
so that sheep and cattle we're often reduced
to dry leaves for fodder. The eolonists
promptly met the attack, in some places
driving the kangsrOos into enclosures and
shooting them. In the battle more than
1900 kangaroOs were killed in four days.
GooD READING CHEAP.-We direct
special attention to the advertisement of
the American Agrieulturist in this paper.
With the reduction in price, the many en-
cravings, the vast amount OF useful in

Those who fancy the Labor or Green

anything, and that portion which left the
democratic party will be whipped back

deep-seated dissatisfaction and disgust
with the democratic party, as at present
constituted and differed, that led to the
present bolt, and until that party is reor-
ganized and re-habilitated these men are
not to be either driven or coaxed back,
