A Scare In AIabama-tn Uprising of Ne
grOes Feared.

sFOes EtAFeus
COLUMBUS (Ga J. October II h.-Insorma-
ton has reached this city of contemplated
uprising Of negroes in Lee county, Alabama
A number Of families have fed to this CITY
and points near here for protection. A
trustworthy negro gave information to Robert
Sssser of an intention of the negroes to burn
houses and massacre the whites on Friday or
Saturday. The trouble is said to have grown
out of disturbance caused by negro shooting
a white man some weeks since. The widest
excitement is said to prevail all over Lee
county, particularly around the Chewscla
lime works. The reports coming in cause
some excitement here, yet they are regarded
as much exaggerated, but with some founda-
ton.
SECOND DIsPATCH.I
COLUMBUS, October 11th.-A special dis
patch from Yougsboro, Alabams, the nearest
station to the Chewacla lime works, says
there is no uprising OF negroes in that section.
Other families reached this city to-right, and
still more are expected.

The Civil Service Reform Question.

WASHINGTON, May Is.
Senator Pendleton, in his report in
advocacy of the bill to regulate aud i'm.
prove the civil service reform of the
United States, which was reported to the
senate on the 29th of March last, reviews
at length the growth of tho government
since its foundation, and the effect of this
growth on the civil service. Referring
to what is characterized as the "spoils
system" aud its effect upon the president,
it mentions that instead of devotng his
time TO great questions of statesmanship,
he must spend most of it in weighing in
the balance political considerations that
shall deterniine the claim of this friend
or that political supporter TO the posses
sion of some Office of profit or honor un-
der him. The president of the republic
which wAs created by tho constitution in
the beginning of our national life and
the chief rnagistrate of to-day, IL is
maintained, are two entirely different
public functionariee. There has grown
up such peryersion of the duties of The
presidential Office, such prostitution of il

creation, imposing burdens go grieYons

Board Of Home Missions was reorgan.
lied, with headquarters in Atlanta. 1t
is understood that there will be new
President of the Board and a new Cor
responding Secretary for the work. One
of the most important questions consid.
cred by the Convention was the relation
of the denomination to the American
Bible Society which resulted in the adop.
ton of the following resolution
Rssolued, That we gravely disapprove
of the action of the American Bible

THE IMPORTANCE OF nEaIsrRATIoN.

The registration of voters in the sever
al counties of this State has been pro-
crossing for more than two weeks.
In many sections it is feared that the
white voters will not register as fully as
they should do and thus by apathy and
neglect give to the negroes majority of
the registered electors in the State. We
hope these fears are not we'll founded.
Six weeks yet remain for registration,
and surely in TINT time all of our peo.
pie can be induced to take the slight
trouble necessary to register in order to
be able to vote next November. The
election laws may impose little trouble
upon our people, bat they are patriotic
enough to incur the little inconvenience
necessary to aid In the retention Of the
government Of this State in the hands of
the respectable and intelligent people Of
the country. The great beauty about
the present election law is that when o
man is once registered, hc is not under
the necessity of repeating his registra-
ton every election. 1t is permanent
thing. When our people understand
that the good of the State requires the
registration law, we have no doubt that
the men who have given weeks, and even
months, of their time in red shirt COM
psnies to the redemption OF South Caro-.
lima, will cheerfully give tho few hours
necessary to the retention of the govern.
ment which has done so much for the
State. Wherever the registration law
has been tried, it has worked like
charm throughout the South. The men
who have rescued South Carolina from
her oppressors viii not hesitate to sub
NIT TO the laws which have ,een tried
successfully in Mississippi, Alabams and
many cities, and are now deemed neccs-
sary to the welfare of our own STATE.
