GREENyELLE AND COLUMBIA Il. Il.
Gen. James Connor Appointed Receiver
by Judge PRESLEY.
CoLuMRIA. S. c.. Noy. q.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Nov. 81.
Judge PRESLEY last night issued an
order in the Greenville and Columbia
Railroad case, which recites in substance
that all the questsons involved have been
fully argued before him without objec.
ton or intimation Of deficiency in the
plcadings, or n want of proper parties to
the cases. These questions require time
for their proper consideration. Pending
such consideration the Attorney General
of the State, which is the holder of nearly
all the first mortgage bonds and the
guarantor of more than million and n
half of the bonds supposed to be secured
by statutory lien, having moved for the
appointment of a Receiver in order to
the proper preservation and future dis
tribution of the property, very large
number of the bondholders having con-
Cured in the motion, and the supposed
objection of others that the road is al
ready in the hands of a Receiver under
the order of Judge Melton made in 1872,
having been met by the fact that, though
the officers Of the road were by Judge
Melton constituted officers of his Court
and made responsible as Receivers, they
have never executed the required bonds,
filed their accounts nor performed the
other duties named by that order, Gen.
James Conner, is therefore appointed
Receiver for this Court with all the pow
ers pertaining to such Receivership, and
is required to file bond in the Office Of
the Clerk of this Court in the sum Of
$4,000 for the faithful performance of
the duties, &c. 1t is further ordered,
that the earnings and income of the said
road be deposited from day to day in the
Carolina National Bank of Columbia, a
monthly statement to be made of such
receipts and all disbursements. The
creditors of the road are accorded free
access to the above statements, with lib
erty to file exceptions, &C., but are en-
joined and restrained from instituting
suit or from further prosecuting suits
already instituted, or from enforcing
judgments against the said company.

A new scheme of taxation
has been proposed in the constitu-
tional convention of California, some
thing after the plan laid down by Hon.
George w. Julian, of Indiana, in the In
ternat;onal Rcricw. 1t is described as
graduated progressive taxation" and
provides for division of the land Of the
State into classes, the valuation for the
purposes of public revenue being dcpen-
dent on the number Of acres possessed
by each tax payer Thus it is proposed
TO add 80 per cent. TO the valuation OF
land when the holder thereof owns more
than / 900 acres, and the assessment is to
be further increased in proportion as
ownership comprises increased acreage.
It need hardly be pointed out that tie
avowed object of the contemplated lcgis-
la.ion is to place check upon the accu-
mutation of extensive landed estates,
which has already been gning on to a
considerable extent on the Pacific coast.
- \ Washington correspondent Of
the Philadelphia 1imcs has been getting

Secretary McCrary said "The Iowa Re
publicans are for Blaine first, but they

nominated" Representative Page, of
California, said that no man hut Grant Is

Murder in Sumter.
From The Columbia Register.
SUMTER. S. c.. Nov.

SUMTER, S. c., Nov. 81.
Rev. R. E. White, who has been
preaching at Kingstree, Mount Hope
and Forreston, and who was but recently
married, while coming from Manning tc
Sumter in a buggy with his wife, was
shot in the head and killed by some un-
known person. He was carried to the
nearest house, Spencer Davis nine
miles from Sumter. lie lived but twenty
minutes. He was educated at the South
ern Baptist Theological Seminary, and
was young man of great promise. He
was born in Ireland, and was delegate
to the Baptist Convention, which as
sembled here to-day. There is great en-
citement among the few who knew this
sad event tonight. Colonel Walsh, act
ing Coroner, DR.. John S. Houghson and
others leave Immediately to hold an in
quest and post mortem examination.
SUMTER, S. c., Nov. %.
4 post mortcm examination of the body
of Rev. R. Z. White was made to-day,
about l o'clock, by DR.. Hughson, at the
house of Mr.. Spencer Davis, nine miles
below Sumter, which revealed gunshot
wound Just above the left ear. The ball
penetrated the brain, making its exit
through the opposite parietal bone and
producing death in few minutes.
1t is supposed that The murderer mis-
took Mr.. White for gentleman of Clar-
endon, who took an active part in the
interests of the Democracy in the late
campaign.
This morning Richard Coleman, n col
ored man, living five mile below the
scene of the murder, was arrested and
lodged in Jail, circur1stantial evidence
being strong against him.
The funeral services of Mr.. White took
place at the Baptist Church this after
noon. The Baptist State Convention,
now in session at this place, attended in
body. Impressive and touching ad-
dresses were delivered by Rev. A. w.
Lamar and DR.. j. G. Hidden.
The body will be taken on the train
tonight, en- route for Spartanburg, the
home of the bride of yesterday and the
widow of to-day.
SUMTER. S. c., Nov. IS.
Further developments in the case of
the killing of Rev. Il. E. White cause
the belief that he came to his death by
an accidental shot from q rifle in the
hands of some person at distance, the
ball ricocheting and striking him at such
an angle as to at first make the impress
sion that the shot was but few steps Off.
Richard Coleman has been released.

THE CRADLE AND THE GRAvE.-It
was smart saying of General Grant, to-
ward the close of the war, that the plen-
tiful lack of robust warlike material in
the Southern Confederacy had compelled
the recruiting officer Ito rob the cradle
and the grave" 1t was a memorable ex-
preston, and has been perpetuated.
The editor of the Petersburg Post, with a
lively acknowledgment of the fitness of
things, and, with delicate irony, turns it
against the people who are looking to-
ward Grant to save them from them
selves. Our esteemed brother says:
awe are glad to observe that since the
close of the war all the robbing of cradles
of living children and graves of dead
mems bones has been confined exclusive
" to the North and West. The kidnap-
ping of poor Charlie Ross and other in
fants, and the daring robbery of the
graves of Colonel Harrison, Of Ohio, and
4. #. Stewart, of New York, present the
horriiying picture in its true colors. No
such atrocious crimes as either OF those
have been heard of in any portion of the
South"
We are sorry to apply this phrase to
the manufacturers of it, but it is chick
en- that has come home to roost with the
traditional curse upon it.

Sam Lee, of Sumter, who has been
one of the most active of the Radical
fomentors of strife and discord between
the races in the lower part of the State
ever since the war, and who was Speaker
of the House of Representatives under
the Moses oligarchy, and subsequently,
Probate Judge of Sumter County, has
come to grief at last. He was arrested
on the Goth instant, charged with irregu-
larities and misconduct in the discharge
of the latter Office, and in default OF bail,
which was fixed at the small sum of $500,
was lodged in Jail to await his trial
before the court. This mulatto scoun-
drel has done everything in his power
against the interests of the white people
of this State, and it affords us pleasure
to know that he is in fair way for once
to receive his Just dues.

suppress the asli-Soulhcrn cry on which
certain politicians relied to rally the
Republican party. These appeals to
passion were destroying machine which
ought to have been utilized in contr0ll-
ing the great questions of the day ques-
tions concerning the repairs Of the raw
ages of the war, which, owing to the
party neglect, had been allowed to run
riot in imitation theories and communistic
doctrines. 1t has, therefore, been felt
by those best qualified To form an opin-
ion that more is due to Governor Hainp-
ton for removing the "bloody shirt"
from politics than to any other man
though the cry has really been more
injurious of late to the Republican than
to the Democratic party. Still the drift
of both has been towards dissolution,
due to the inability of either till lately
to take stand on the true issues. Re-
leved from the Southern question, the
real points upon which the battle
of party has to be fought come out
and on these the rally is being made.
No Southern name stands higher in
the North than that of Wade Hamp-
ton; yet, no man stands higher in the
South. His own section cannot accuse
him of what in it would be deemed
shortcoming; no betrayal, as there re-
garded, Of his State, of his section, of
his party. He threw his fortune and
his sword into its scale, and served with
distinction throughout a war which re-
duced him from wealth to poverty. The
efforts which have commended him to
the North have been more successful in
re-uniting than were the sacrifices which
commend him to the South in disuntng.
He failed where it was well for the con-
tinent, for the republic, perhaps for man.
kind, that he should fail and he has
succeeded where it is certainly we'll that
he should succeed ; displaying not only
an admirable temper but sound judg-
ment and an executive ability. These
are the reasons which have made the
name of Wade Hampton so well receiv-
ed when it was suggested for the second
place on the Democratic ticket and so
general is the approval, that the Cover
nor, who might prefer seat in the Sem
ate, may have to bow to public opinion
and reserve himself for the nomination
that looms ahead.

As will be seen by reference to an
article in another column Judge Press
lev has granted the motion of Attorney
General Youmans to appoint Receiver
for the Greenville and Columbia Rail-

This action of Judge PRESLEY, we are

proval Of all concerned. A man in
whom the public have more confidence
could not have been placed in charge of
the affairs Of the Road, and the creditors
may rest assured that their Interests will
be carefully guarded by Gen. Connes.
