FLoRIDA's VOTE.
A Full and Disgraceful Confession by
McLin and Dennis.

McLin says the pressure of the
Republican bulldozers upon him
was too heavy to resist during the
Florida count. That is the reason
the Returning Board threw out le-
gal returns from several counties
and precincts, on the second count,
that they had decided were legal on
the first count, and substituted DO
gus returns, which, according to
the Returning Boarders, were
Matched for the occasion. This OPP
Grafton changed Tilden's majority
of 1,l97 to Hayes majority of 206.
His conviction of duty to party
compelled him to give the benefit
of every doubt to the republicans,
believing as he did that the saliva
ton of the country depended on the
vote of Florida for Hayes. He con-
fesses that the place of reason and
judgement was usurped by partisan
feeling, which was stimulated to the
utmost by assurances of forthcom
ing money and troops, if necessary.
Dennis covers fully all the details
of the Archer precinct frauds,
which played so important a part be-
fore the Returning Board. He says
that 214 names were PUT on the re
turn of Arcner precinct after the
voting. He says it is certain that
the State of Florida went for Tilden
on the face of the Returns, and he
should have had it. There has not
been a time within the past three
months when, if 1 had been con
WINGED that crushing proc! of the
fact that Tilden carried the State
would turn Hayes out and give Til
den his rights, ] would not gladly
have furnished such proof. 1 told
Uncle Ben General Butler) what 1
could do, and while he thinks Hayes
should be turned out, he thought it
best to wait till some action had
been taken by Congress In the mat
ter. l opposed dsyes because he
is a traitor to the party that put
him in, and he treated my party
badly. AS Conkling says, if the
country only knew Hayes as well
as Congress does, he would be de
spised on all sides. Noyes knew of
every moyement that was made in
Florida, and Hayes knew it through
him. l know this to be true and
can show it when the time comes"

ElktOn.

Owing to the heavy fall Of rain
on last Tuesday and Tuesday night
our farmers have been delayed with
their work, those working the bot
tom lands the most on account of
the backwaters; no very great dam
age has been done however.
We learn that the middle pier
under the bridge at this place is
about to give way from some cause
or other; this matter ought to be
looked into by the proper authori-
ties.
One Mr.. Pearson was shot and
instantly killed on last Thursday
morning two miles southeast OF
Elkton by Mr.. Evans; we did not
learn the cause only that the former
was trying to kill the latter.
Miss Tennie Nelson of Prospect
has been visiting here for several
days, stopping at the residence Of
Mrs. Z. j. Beatty. We hope that
her visit may be long and pleasant.
A lecture was delivered by Mr..
ShackeIford of Fayetteville at the
Methodist church last Friday night;
it was listened to with great interest
by an appreciative audience.
Several young men of this place
and No. Z. were initiatedeinto the
Murphy movement last Saturday
evening in front of Mr.. Vaughn $
residence; several young ladies wit
messed the ceremony, and doubtless
would have joined if they had been
invited. We hope the boys will re
member this. While several men
were standing on the bridge yester-
day evening barrel full of some
thing Ito drink we suppose) passed
down the river followed by an
empty canoe.
Several of our young ladies are
using a preparation composed of
honey and flour for the improve
ment of their looks. Mr.. Daven-
port reports loss of three bee
stands, and judging from this it
seems that our girls are not the
best looking in the world, or that
they are bent on being the best
looking; both we presume. 1t has
not been settled yet as to who the
Belle of Elkton really is, but we
will decide in our next.
Capt. Ridgway received a new

Parker's Store.

The storm in this section on the
night of the 21st inst, did a great
deal of damage to the country, es-
peclally to the timber Oaks that
had withstood the storms of a cen
tury almost were Frustrated. Some
of the most beautiful forests of our
neighborhood are nothing but tan
gled masses of ruin. One or two
houses were unroofed and one was
rased level with the ground. For
tunately no lives were lost, but sew
eral were frightened almost out of
their wits. Some sought the shell
ter of stronger houses, while others
waited, expecting to be blown to
eternity on the wings of the wind.
w. G. Chapman and Mrs. S. A.
Rogers were the greatest sufferers
in the way of timber. Saw mill
men will get plenty of business
now and builders will have a chance
to get lumber cheap.
Mr.. G.. II. Cameron had very
bad spell of sickness lately, caused,
it is said by drinking the essence
of polkroot as a medicine. The at
tack came on while he was in the
field, and the blood gushed from his
mouth in great quantities, which
very near caused his dissolution.
We are glad to see him up again.
Mr.. John NJ. Chapman has been
kept indoors for several weeks with
a very sore hand. 1t Is improving
some now.

They had a fishing party at
Wales last Saturday. They fished
on dry land, and j think some of
them got a nibble, judging from the
smiles that DER each feature played,
and the occasional application of
the han dherchief. From the beau
tiful blue eat down to the shining
little perch, all congregated in the
little nook, shady and beautiful,
where the matrimonial hooks were
cast, each one biding his time to
get bite. A sumptuous feast was
served on the ground and all pres
ent partoo+ of the dainties prepared
for the occasion by fingers that
know how to fix 'em. Messrs.
Houston and English of Campbells-
vile dropped in to buy some cattle,
so they said, but really to get a
view at the fair oces. Altogether
the affair was very well conducted
and everybody seemed to enjoy it.
Mr.. Gill Williamson was severely
bruised last week by the falling of

A Ministerial Fraud.

The following paragraph which
we clip from the Nashville Banner
of Monday, will not surprise great
many of our citizens. The Rev.
Samuel West, of Toronto, Canada,
preached and lectured for several
weeks in Pulaski last winter, and
we believe that nine-tenths of the
people were thoroughly Disguised
with him before he left. He went
from here to Columbia and preached
and lectured, and disguised people
pretty much as he did here, we
learn. The description of him in
the last paragraph is perfect:
ga ministerial fraud has materi-
allied at Chattanooga in the person
of "Rev." S. j. West, alias @. l..
Bostwick, who claims to be Bap-
fist preacher from Toronto, Cana
da. A Chattanooga exchange OF
yesterday contains an article expos
ing the operations of the man. He
has been at Chattanooga about
three weeks assisting Rev. j. Nj.
Phillips, pastor of the Baptist
Church there, in con 1uctIng a reli-
gious me citing. Everything did not
90 on smoothly as far as Bostwick
was concerned. Letters and tele-
grams were sent to different places,
and from all accounts the man
seems to be operating under an as
sumed name. At Stouffville, it is
said, he Incorporated money,
and was guilty of improper conduct
with women, and soon afterwards
turned up as a Congregationalist
at Orangeville.
'Bostwick left Chattanooga and
went to Louisville for the purpose
of getting letters of recommends
tion from parties there, who. he
said knew him, but the Chattanoo-
ga paper says that these letters
have not yet appeared. In order
that other churches and Christian
communities may not be imposed
upon by Bostwick, we give below
an accurate description of him.
Height about feet 10 inches;
weight about 1875 pounds; heavy,
dark hair; dark complexion; rather
low and narrow forehead; neck
rather long; mouth large, with a
peculiar way of raising his upper
lip; thin face; consumptlve appear
ance; thin and dark mustache and
side -whiskers; smooth shaved chin;
accent something like North Ireland.

The Amount Of Work Yet to be Done
by Congress.

A special dispatch from Washing
ton says; Besides the bills on the
private calendar, there are fifty six
bills on the public calendar of the
House, most of which will, of
course, have to be abandoned for
the present session, if it shall deter
mine to adjourn in June. Among
these will be ali the important bills
reported on Wednesday from the
Banking. Currency and Pacific
Railroad Committees, as well as the
following bills: That granting pen
sions to Mexican ers;providing
for distribution of awards of the
Mexican and American Commits
sion; regulating the compen sation
of postmasters; regulating the
granting of pensions on account of
the death or wounds or injuries re-
ceived or diseases contracted in the
late war, or for arrears OF pensions;
to transfer the control of Indian at
fairs to the War Department; to re-
tire circulating notes of National
Banks, and a large number of other
bills affecting the currency and bus
mess of the country generally.

A $1,000 Fire at Columbia.

A special from Columbia to the
American last Monday night says:
A fire broke out about 10 o'clock
to night in a vacant house on the
southeast corner of the public
square, caused, it is supposed by
timers who had worked on the
roof during the day. After de
stroying the corner house, the fire
spread to the adjoining building,
occupied by Geo. S. Hodge, dry
goods, which was also destroyed.
Loss, probably, $4,000; insurance,
$4,000. j. C. Green, Holding,
McGregor d Co., and N. Hirsch d
Co. sustained small loss in removing
goods. At one time, it looked as
though the whole block would burn.
At II o'clock the hand engines had
the fire under control, and at one it
was out. MAURY.

Monday, by Representative Foster,
relating to claims against the Uni

shall be paid for property taken,
used, injured or destroyed by mill

operations in time of war, and after
Jan. l, 1880, no claim against the
United Stares shall be audited, al

Foreign.

There is contradictory news from
the Diplomatic centers. Austria is
reported about to occupy Bosnia.
England is still actively preparing
for war. No result has yet been at
tanned by the negotiations regard
ing the Congress and withdrawal OF
forces. The illness of Bismark and
Gortschakoff at this critical period
considered unfortunate. Russians
are said to be doing their best to
strengthen their positions near Con
stantinople. About one hundred
thousand Russians have been dis
tributed at various points in Rou-

Reinstatement Of Army Officers,

The bill introduced by Delegate
Stevens, authorizing the President
to reinstate certain officers of the
United States, provides that all Off
GERS who have served in the United
States army more than twenty years
continuously and also during the
late rebellion, and who were wound
ed and brevetted for gallant services
and those who were honorably mus
tered out of service under the act OF
July Is, 1870, be reinstated and re
tired to the rank they occupied
when previously mustered out.

The prominent citizens of Hunts
vile Ala, who lyuched Mike White,
might, perhaps, have hesitated to
commit that crime, If they had
known that Whites life was insured
for $4,000, and that the insurance
company would sue the county for
the amount. While human life is
held so cheap in Huntsville curren
cS is scarce, and valued in proper
ton to its scarcity. Besides, insur
ance companies are notoriously
long winded in litigation, and the
lynchIng of White will probably
prove TO have been a costly amuse-
ment. The next time G Huntsville
highly respectable mob proceeds to
lynch a man they will, no doubt,
find out first whether his life is in

SCHEDULE.

On the 9th of April the Mer
chants Exchange of Nashville, Pres
ident j. z. Mcclure presiding
passed resolutions setting forth
that the exigencies which then ex
listed for the passage of the law of
March 1865, imposing a tax of 10
per cent. upon the circulating notes
of other than National Banks, do
not now exist, and requesting the
repeal thereof. We believe with the
Merchants exchange that a large
majority OF the people of this coun-
try look upon the law as unjust and
discriminating. We believe that
its repeal would throw larger
amount of private capital into the
banking business and a larger
amount into circulation-especially
In those sections of country remote
from the money centers. Nearly
all the financial legislation of con-
gress since the war has been in the
interest of the bondholders, and the
common people" are growing res
tive under it. This tax should and
will be repealed.
