Following is the answer of the

that we don't want strangers TO come
in our midst. In one OF the extracts
alluded to the author is positively op-
posed TO immigration, AID asks flour

believe that this sentiment is general

MACKEY'S IIGiIT.

T.. W. Nj. Mackay was in Orange
burg on Monday taking testimony
in his Congressional contest case
against O'Connor. NJ. I. Browning
and A. {. Dibblc Esqs., ytool1 charge
OF Mr.. O,Connor's interest. The
following OF Mackay's witnesses were
examined on Monday: Nestor
Curry of Fogle's poll, II. d. Edwards,
school teacher, near Zcigler's; T.. NJ.
Gray, school teacher, near Ayers;
Nj. *. Wilkinson, school teacher.
Eastcrlin's; +. f. Aiken, Jamison:
johnson, the post master of GG who
was taken up and put in jail last
week for forgery: j. G. Moore Jr.,
l.cwisvillc; Benz. Moulin, Ft. Motto.
The testimony was the ol.l stcrco
typed story, fair elections ut the
polls thrown out, and repeating or
excessive voting elsewhere.
The examination was continued ON
Tuesday. Some of the more noted
witnesses were then examined. among
them the lucky Strakcr who is now
lnNnriating iii a fat ''rA cral office.
The most notable event Of this day
was the opening ofthc famous miss
ing or tray, ling box, said to be that
of Bookhart's poll. The history Of
this box is rather interesting. In
the first place, after the election, in
stead Of coming to the Board Of Coun-
ty Canvasscrs in the regular way. 1T
got into the hands Of Commissioner
Lathrop, who informed the Board
that he had it and was ready to de
liver il up. The Board however, did
not see fit 10 take ii in this irregular
way, 1t therefore remained with
Mr.. LatIroi', who, rs counsel for the
Radical Candidates, carried il with
him i'll company with these caadi
dates on the Railroad to Columbia TO
the meeting OF the State Canva.srrs.
In this city il took the rounds of the
boarding houses and TO the State
House and finally found its way back
10 OrangcbTrg. From this y;rcum-
stance IL is styled the travelling box.
On Tuesday the unusual proceeding
was undertaken hy order OF Macllcy
Of opening this box, which, besides
IT'S pcrcgrinations, was left, since lis
return from Columbia, in Mr.. l.ath-
rops office, the rendezvous of McIr-
tire, Webster, G%rlach u rctcyn.

ALL Or NONE.

An interesting debate has taken
place in Congress on Senator Log
ans bill for the pcnsioning Of Gen.
Grant Senators Bayard and Hill
take the very sensible osition that
the bill is Objectionable on the ground
OF Its being a special measure, and
they arc opposed to special legisla-
uon on this subject. The Democrats
favor a general bill granting pensions
Tor life for all Ex Presidents, under
which Grant would come in for his
share, but they are not disposed to
provide q special dish for him alone.

On Wednesday evening, the 9Th
inst, a quiet and and very interesting
marriage occurred at the residence Of
Colonel I. A. Hamilton, on the Pop
lar street boulevard. The parties
Joined in wedlock were Mr..
Will Register and Miss Liz
zie Cash, and the ceremony was
conducted by the Rev. II. A. Jones,
pastor Of the Cumberland Presbyte-
rian church. Members Of these two
old and we'll known families and a few
particular friends beside we're present,
which made quits a little gathering. Mr..
Jones concluded the simple but very
impressive ceremony by passing the
plain bridal ring and making a short,
beautiful talk in his own happy way,
After this followed the hearty con-
gratulations of a room full of sincere
friends. An opportunity was then
afforded to examine an array Of appro-
pirate presents, some of them quite
valuable, and all of them in
good taste. A little later supper
was announced which proved to be a
very substantial and elegant affair.
Mrs. Hamilton entertained the COM
pany in a very handsome style, and it
was late in the evening when the last
guest slowly departed. The groom is
a worthy and popular young man, a
son Of Col. F. W. Register, one
of our most esteemed citizens.
The bride is the daughter of the
late f. M. Cash, who was prominent
in the banking business and as a Ma
son, and was universally respected.
She is a young lady OF the loveliest
type in character and person. The
happy young couple, like sensible
people, will shortly set up house keep
ing in a home Of their own; they
start cut together in their new life
with bright hopes, fair prospects, anC
the hearty good wishes Of many
friends.
