the thousands. We are jufOTme d by a
reliable gentleman that during last
week over two thousand mules were
sold in this market. OF this number
about two hundred were sold dnriug
the week at retail. This trade is not
considered very great at present, but
the wholesale trade is greater than it
has ever been a. any time during the
present season.
So densely are the stables packed
with the lODg-eared representatives
of Kentucky and Tennessee, that
the proprietors are at loss to find
some place ia which 10 store
them away. If the animals continue
TO reach this city by the same mum bers
that they have for the past week or
ten days, we will not be surprised to
see some enterpEising stabIe-keeper
hanging them out on clOthes-iine in
front Of his place of business. Yester-
day there were fOu- hundred mules
and horses a. Clint TaylOr's stables;
and many more are in the various

The South Carolina legislature, now in ses-
sion, is being urged to enact a law prescribing
an educational qualification for suffrage. There
Is bill now pending-and it meets with much
favor-which provides as follows:
81 No person shall vote who has not regis
tered as voter, ,oriti,sg his O,rn nam, on the
register.
8. The register shall be a permanent one: a
registration once made being good during the
lifetime of the voter registering. This avoids
the expense OF frequent general registrations.
3. The register shall be closed several months
before any election, so as to be completed and
revised In quiet times.
4. No elecUor shall vote who does not produce
his certificate OF registration at the time of
voting. Upon proof OF loss he can renew his
certificate on payIfig a fee. Certificates detaced
or destroyed by accident shall be renewed with
out charge. A voter who sells or otherwise dis
poses of his certificate loses his vote"
The newspapers OF the state favor law of
this kind, and the Charleston Ns,os AID C)ariar
says of the pending bill:
ut is believed TO be CONSTITUTIONAL ami 1t will
temporarily suspend from voting a vast number
of colored people. who can, however, become
voters as 5000 as they are able to write their
names. Such qualification exists In Connec-
ticut, where every eIector must be able to read
and in Massachusetts,, where every voter must
be able TO read and to write his name. This is
sufficient warrant for the procedure. The high
est warrant, however, Is in our own neceSsi-
ties"
The further argument IS used that as the sys-
TEN has not reduced the Congressional repre-
sentation In Massachusetts, and Connecticut it
cannot do so In South Carolina. There Is, how
ever, within the democratic party OF the state,
warm opposition to this policy of Gripping col
ored suffrage This liberal element is led by
Senator Hampton, who believes In protecting
the colored people In all their rights, and his
influence may prove strong enough TO defeat
the registration policy.

Chastine Cox, the murderer of Mrs. Hull in

old sinners ought to be made to suffer the death
penalty. young fellows like u.s. he says, ''are
tender hearted and will reform" Cox commit
ted one of the most cold-blooded murders on
record, and richly deserves hanging. Society
ought not to have to take the risk of his being
turned loose upon it again by going through
the hollow form of sending him to prison for
life.
