TEE ELECTION CASES.

A Charleston correspondent of the
New York Times telegraphed that paper
few days ago the following information
regarding the course probably to be pur-
sued with reference TO the numerous
political prosecutions which have been
pending for years in the Federal Courts
of this State:
1t has been learned from Govern.
ment ~ficer that the Attorney General
has yielded to the vicwe of District At
torney Melton and authorized him to
take such steps in the prosecution of the
election cases now pending in the United
States Court IS he may deem proper.
Tho District Attorneys mode of proce-
dure will be to summon the principals
and witnesses in half dozen cases spe.
cially selected, and to allow all the other
defendants and witnesses to remain ut
home until summoned to appear by the
Court. This, it is claimed, will crrtail
the expenses of the Government, and
will prevent the excitement produced by
the simultaneous arrival in this city of
400 or 500 defendants, and at least four
times that many witnesses. Mr.. Verdier,
an able lawyer of Beaufort. has been
appointed Assistant District Attorney.
and he and Assistant District Attorney
Marshall were in close consultation with
District Attorney Melton for several days
at Columbia to agree uDon line of &C.
ton for the prosecution in the coming
trials. The Court at which these cases
are heard will meet on the first Monday
in April.
District Attorney Melton has been in.
terviewsd by o correspondent of the
Ne,cs aid Courier, and says that he had
no knowledge of the source of the fore
going telegram, and that IL was not based
upon any information procured from
hiEi. He said that his assistants would
thoroughly investigate the pending cases,
and probably select a few of the most
glaring violations OF the law for trial,
and that none of the parties charged
need appear for trial at the ensuing
April term of tho United States Circuit
Court in Charleston unless notified in

GREENvILLE MADE W1NE.-Mr. F.
Hahn, of this city, is now preparing TO
put up one thousand bottles Of wine of
bis own make, three years old. This
wine Is of g very superior quality, and
has had ready sale from the casks,
dealers here and in Spartanburg and
other places finding it very acceptable to
their customers. The bottling is expect
ed to improve the flavor and color, and
will doubtless add much to the popnlari-
ty OF Mr.. Hahn's brands. Wine making
promises to be considerable industry in
this. city in the near future, and will
probably be the means Of bringing much
money hero that would otherwise 20

little iudicious pushing is all that is re-
quired to make the vineyards another

A BIG SUCCESS.


have nothing to say as TO the policy
advocated in the speech, but this much
is certain: : it was original, forcibe and
lively, and it drew the attention Of A fap-
ged aid wcaried House in way that
neither Cox nor Horr has done this ses-
sion. AT every one Of the hits there was
shout Of applause and laughter, and he
hit good many people and things with
great deal Of impartiality and vigor.
On two occasions he tried to stop. but
there rose such n cry Of go on !" that lie
had TO 70 on. The calling Of the previ-
GUS question WAS postponed on the bill
and unanimous consent given to his pro-
ceeding with the speech. For over an
hour he held the aisles blocked with au-
ditors. Republicans aud Democrats
were all massed around, and the former
applauded as vigorously rs their oppo.
nents. The few reporters left in the gal
lery were much entertained. A New
York Herald man remarked TO me,
why don't you send him to the Sen.
ate?" Another ~as nston;shed at the
force Of the Colonel's delivery and want
ed to know why he had been SO long
silent while possessing such powers Al
last the speaker wouldn't say any more
and sat down 10 such burst of applause
rs the House had not heard this session.
CROWD OF CONGRATULATIONS.
For ten minutes there was a mass of
members Of both parties around Col.
Tillman congratulating him upon his
success. II ia customary when member
makes big speech for the others to sub.
scribe for certain number Of copies for
distribution in their own districts, paving
the cost TO the Government printing Of
fee. am told that such subscriptions
were exceedingly large tonight, mem
bers from the North making a great pro.
portion of them. AS Col. Tillman spoke
on-hand in the House the manuscript of
his speech, which is very long, will sacri.
fee, when printed, o good deal of liveli.
ness to good dea! of strong argument.
1t does not read AS it was heard, which
is pity.
The proposition for such n large in
crease of representation doubtless struck
many people as funny ct first, but there
is plenty of ground for its support. Mr..
Stephens tells me that he favors GOO
Representatives. So do q good many
others. OF course nothing was expected
at this session by air. Tillman except to
draw public attention 10 the subject and
create opinion, aud in this he will doubt
less succeed. He has at any ra.e made G
big sensa,ion, enlivened the ordinary
dull house and established q reputation
as humorist. Horr can now hide his
diminished head in shame. Col. Till
man got twice as much applause end
laughter as he did. / couldn't help
wishing that the House galleries could

he was holding the razor when
his assalant was removed.
The commissioner showed US to the room
of Commissioner Martin, on the second
floor, where the wounded man had been
removed. Charlie lay on the bed, calm
and still full of that wonderful grit which
carried him through yesterdays trying or
deal. lie walked with full, strong voice,
and when asked if he could relate what
happened in his room before assistance
came, said that he was lying on the lounge,
instead of on the bed-ss above related.
He said when the first cash was made
across his throat, which reached from ear
to ear, he awakened, and realizing that a
struggle for life was to be made struck the
convict blow with his lett fist, which sent
him reeling across the room to the op.
positc wall. On arising he was again con
fronted by his assailant who still clutched
the razor. They grappIod each other and
the convict again cut him severely On the
throat, and reaching his arm across
Charley's shoulder inflicted terrible cash
across the back Of the neck and nearly cut
off the lower part OF one Of his ears. The
desperate then cut at his throat az. in and
again, when Charlie, seeing an opportunity,
caught the razor in his mouth, where he
held it fast In doing so he received
severe cut about an inch long and extendl
ing, through and through, across from the
right side of the mouth, In thus holding
the razor he bit great hicks in it, and said
he could feel them crumbling in his mouth.
In the struggle the left hand was cut down
about two inches between the thumb and
fore.ilngcr, while the right thumb at the
first join was cut almost completely Off
Altogether he has thirteen cuts which the
physicians were some four hours in dress
ing and sewing up. One hundred stitches
were taken in the cut across the neck alone,
during which time the sufferer showed the
most astonishing grit and endurance; in
fact, DR.. Mckenzie says he never before
experienced such astonishing courage and
fortitude. He rested quite comfortably
during last night, and his fresh appearance
this morning is wonderful lie would be
glad to sec his friends, but hopes to be al.
lowed to remain in perfect quiet and re-
ceive no one for the present. George
Thompson, the colored convict who com.
mitted the deed, is small, black fellow,
who plead guilty to charge of highway
robbery at the circuit court OF Adams
county in 1877, and was sentenced to four.
teen years imprisonment He was brought
here from Joliet with the gang of zoo, in
March, 1878, and soon after was assigned
to duty rs "trusty," to care for the Off
GERS rooms, which position he has ever since
held.
