Rarely do We record i. mora p.inful accident

Rarely do we record more painful accident
to one Of our own people than the death OF
young Tyrrill yesterday. He left here with A.
FRANCHISE and X. j. Titus at an early hour
yesterday morning to 60 hunting. They start
ed for Almens, Van Buren, county. While
driving in the woods about 1ll5 O'Clock, a
squirrel was seen and Tyrrell was sitting on
the bottom OF the buggy behind where the
guns lay. He jumped to the ground and pull
ed his gun toward him by the muzze. The
hammer Of the gun caught in the bottom OF
the buggy and discharged its contents in the
lower right breast. The charge OF shot passed
between the ribs, through the liver and making
hole about an inch in diameter into the luD gs
The young man talked quite freely when pick
ed up and told his companions that he would
live about an hour and half, which he did al
most to the minute. Titus immediately went
for assistance and then drove to Paw Paw,
seven miles, and telegraphed to Mr.. Tyrriil the
sad news.
MIR. Tyrrill not being here the dispatch was
taken to Mr.. Geo. w. Parker, who at once went
to Paw Paw to get further particulars, and
from Paw Paw he went to the scene OF the &C
cident, which was within mile OF Mr.. j. Coble-
dicks. There everything that was possible to
do had been done by many persons who came
TO assist. Young Tyrril seemed to have full
possession OF his senses, but did not suffer
great pain. He said: 6 1t is fun to go hunt
ing, but it is terrible to be shot in this way
Just before he died he bid those around him
good bye, and sent loving messages to his faith
or, mother and sister. Mr.. Parker found the
remains had been carefully attended. He
brought the remains here in a sprisg carriage,
arriving here at ten O'Clock last night.
To describe the grief of his parents and sis
ter on the reception of the news, and espec-
tally when the remains were brought to the
door he left in the morning so happy and eI-
pectant, is impossible. de was dearly loved

The emigratlon meeting OF colored men
held at Montgomery, Alabama, last Saturday,
was the largest and most significant colored
meeting ever held in that state since the Re-
publican party was crushed out OF power
Over 1000 colored men, every one voter, aud
many OF them leaders OF influence, were pres
ent. The procession carried portraits OF Gar
field and Arthur, and many banners with mot
toes. Among the notices were such as these:
"a Free Ballot and an Honest Count or no
Cotton;' ave want no more than Our Rights,
aud Wen Have Them II Alabama Won't" Re-
solutions were passed declaring that the colored
people would give the Alabama Democrats
just one more chance IN the coming election !;
and then, il their ballots were counted out, or
they were not allowed free ballot and far
count, every colored person able to do 80 would
emgrate out OF Alabama, and 20 to scme
country where their rights would be respected.
All the speakers delared that they would rather
live in Alabama where they were born, but they
would not submit any longer to be robbed Of
the highest right OF freemen-the right to vote
as they chose and to have their votes honestly
counted. Unless they can have this right, they
will deprive the state Of its laboring popula-
ton. Or, as one OF them put it, "A free vote,
or no crops. An honest count or no business
in Alabama"

Correspondence Of The True Northerner.
In political circles here much interest is felt
in the forthcoming reports OF the special SCENTS
OF the Census Bureau who visited South Caro-
lima to make an investigation OF the alleged
census frauds in that State.
At the Census Bureau officials are extremely
reticent, and 1t is impossible to get any infor
nation whatever bearing upon this question:
A number OF private letters have been received
from different parts OF the State Of South Car
olina which will give some idea OF the manner
in which the figures have been manipulated to
produce such astonishing results.
II is stated in these letters that in several OF
ed, in some instances, as many as five persons
to family by taking the patronymic and tack
ing On 20 1t such given names as struck their
fancles, and in other cases creating families
and households, who are dubbed with some
name having such local significance as would be
calculated to Danish suspicion. To further cover
the census was doctored to show that these
mythical persons were farmers and had raised
crops OF the various products grown IN those
portions Of the State and which are included In
tie census IL view of all these facts 1t is gen
orally believed that the Investigations of the
special agents have developed sufficient eviden-
cpg oT cvoQkedOasa Tho m nj ~ bo
census IN South Carolina as will compel the
superintendent OF the census to take some de-
clded action in the premises.
1t Is claimed by the Republican leaders that
il the business interests Of New York carry that
State to the Republican column that New Jer-
sey and Connecticut, in . sense merely wards
OF New York, Will follow the Empire State
Upon this calculation Gen. Garfield would be
elected by majority OF two votes in the Elec-
toral College, after giving to Gen. Hancock the
debatable States of Indiana, Ohio and Maine
To corroborate this view it is stated that gen.
tleman well versed in politics, who has travelled
through New Jersey, says that the chances are
that the Republicans will carry that State. He
says that Newark is now manufacturing town
only second to Philadelphia, and that the man
featuring interests look upon the Democratic
party as committed TO free trade. For this rea
son, be says even Democratic manufacturers
will vote the Republican ticket, because free
trade means the runation OF that business. At
Patterson, Railway and New Brunswick he re-
ports similar condition OF affairs.

Quite recently there was quoted in these
columns the admission Of the Mobile Register
that, if party lines were drawn, the negroes Of
Alabanl were still Republicans. Last week
tae Richmond Dispatch (FSuder Dem.) said in
denounciug the Malone rarity for Its niger
loving" traits:
The negroes In this state are Republicans
IL we were TO admit that there are 1000 ne
groes in Virginia who are Democrats, we would
admit too much. Out OF l12000 negro voters,
there are certainly no more than 1000 who are
Democrats.
Contrast these admissions with the returns
of any popular elections in these states within
Eve years.

Gus ignorance OF what every intelligent reader
in the land knows to be Gospel truth. He, in
fact insults the intelligence OF the people whose
votes he asks, and ntensfies the alarm he at
tempts to allay. The General seems ignorant
OF the fact that the files OF both Houseso OF Con-
gress are loaded with bills providing for the
payment OF these CLAIMS, and introduced, too
by his political supporters, who certainly expect
10 have them paid il he is elected to the Presi-
dency. General Hancock, fear, is in worse
hands than he thinks. lie probably means all
he says when he promises his veto. But behind
him stands party that does not tolerate DISC
bedience to its mandates. That party make no
pledges,-in their platform they are wisely eli
lent on this subject. But they have loaded
Congress down with their Southern war claims,
and they have the ong-sought opportunity to
pay them almost within their grasp. There is
one question loyal voters should ask them
selves: Is it not safer to trust party-to give
It control over the government-whch is, IN the
very nature OF things, solldly opposed to such
claims, or to the party which is strongly in ia
vor OF them, on the promise Of one man, and q
very inexperienced one at that, to hold them in
check? trust that our doubtful friends in the
North will consider this subject, in connection
with General Hancock's letter, earnestly.
Good reports are received here from Indiana,
and Republicans have only tnipg to Fear in
the result, and that is the colonization Of voters
from Kentucky into the State on election day.
That this infamous method is to be adopted by
Democrats there is no doubt. In fact, the Dem
ocratic press on the Kentucky border speak
plainly and without reserve upon the intended
raid into Indiana. Given a fair election, and
Indiana will give 5000 majority for the Repub
lcans in October.
From New York everything seems prosper
GUS for the Republicans. 1t can be safely said
now that New York, New Jersey and Connect
cut will give their electoral votes to General
Garfield.

ALABAMA FRAUDS ACKNOWLEDGED.
,p.csl Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.

Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.
WASHINGTON. Sept. ia copy OF Demo
cratic paper, entitled The True Issue, published
in Birmingham, Ala, has been received here,
which contains an acknowledgment that the
Democratic majority at the recent election was
fraudulent. The paper is edited by X. Ran
dolph, and bears at the top OF its columns, as
! its national ticket, the names OF Hancock and
English. In the course of leading editorial on
the situation, The True Issue says:
"The Democratic papers realize the fact that
great damage has been done to Gen. Hancock
in lis race for the Presidency by the put-up
majority of 95, 900. The cry OF fraud has been
IA Used by cheated and wronged people, and is
repeated throughout the land, exaggerated, no
doubt, and it is telling fearfully against him in
the North, and blighting with fear chances that
wero bright up to the time the manipulators
handled that iniquity that disgraces the egisla-
ton OF the last session, -the new election law,
Had it not been used as it was it would have
failed, perhaps, Of it's purposes. 1t bears on its
face fraud, and, OF course. as it was intended to
defrsud, it was SO used. 1t was too much, how
ever, and the $4,000 majority looks about as
ugly now as the eight to seven Commission did
four years ago. Both these Democratic per-
formances are understood by the great mass OF
the people, aud they are not 80 much surprised
at either as the press seems to be now at the
$4,000 majority. They know who planned and
executed them, and what for, and they will not
fail to say If Hancock is defeated that the de-
feat came to him throguh the same channel as
the cheat did to Tilden. There was, in our
opinion, no necessity for 60 gigantic fraud for
any party purposes. twenty-five thousand ma
jority would have been enough to fully secure
all the officers OF the State and tested the work
ing capacity of the machine, "a machine that
can grind out ballots and add up majorties that
don't exist that DISTINGUISHES the people and
denies them the right OF a free ballot and an
honest count, the most sacred civil right ever
wrested from the citizen. Alabama, carried by
the fraud OF mean, vlllainous election law,
loses to the party in the United States the
choice or President, and makes perhaps
Radical Congress What may the people hope
from party that so outrages them and their
rights? Nothing but woe to them and to the
country"

upon Southern claims. But this letter is dis
appointment to those nervous Northern DEM
ocrats who have, With the aid OF the Northern
Republican press, forced the letter from his I'M
willing pen. Loyal people are fully alive to the
great issues involved in the consideration of
these claims. Mr.. Tilden, aware OF this feeling
in the North, discussed this question in his 1876
letter with proper and necessary gravity. But
General Hancock, whose small public and po-
hticsl experience has led him into several ridic-
ulous blunders in the last few weeks, makes
another and worse one in this letter. He treats
the subjec. as OF small consequence, fippantly.
He expresses himself as sorry that the people

one Of smell consequence, but the people, am
