The only chance the Republicans have
OF eecting the next President is to seize
upon blunders made by the House Of
Representatives, which is now Demo.
cratic. Judicious action on the part Of
the Democracy will, from all present
indications, insure us the presidency in
1884. The Republicans believe this and
hence they anticipate rescue from i'm
pending defeat by the usua! Democratic
blundering. For once, it looks like they
would be disappointed, for the Democ-
racy has at las; planted itself upon ii
sound policy, and il controlled Ey expc.
rienced and able men. Altogether the
prospect is very satisfactory to the Dem
Ocrats.

A Wild WOolly Woman.

"A report comes to us that the people
OF the Tiiler's Ferry section on Lynche's
Creek are greatly excited at this time
over the rnmor that there is wild
woman wandering around in that neigh
oorhood. Some persons who claim to
have seen her say that she is very black,
and that her body is covered with long,
black woolly hair; also, that her ap-
pearance and actions are wild and savage
In the extreme. She is very shy and will
not allow two people to approach her at
a time, but if one person is alone she
will attack him at once, beating and bit
ing him in fearful manner. Two men
went out recently to capture her, but up
to nightfall nothing had been seen of
her. 1t was suggested that they light a
fire and camp out, thinking that the
light might attract her attention and
induce her to come to it. After waiting
some time one of the men concluded
that he would 60 on home. Shortly
after he left the woman made her an.
pearance and Immediately attacked the
man at the fire. He did his best at
fighting, but he was no match for her.
He was beaten and bitten in a fearful
manner. At last he got chance TO run
away, and he did it in quick time. Fear
lent speed and strength to his limbs,
enabling him to outrun his enemy.
although she is SAID to be very swift Of
foot. This last act has increased the
excitement and many persons, it is said
are afraid to travel alone now. A party
is being made up to hunt her down and
effect her capture if possible. Lynche's
Creek Swamp is her hiding place, and
she remains there until nightfall. when
she starts out in search of something 10
eat. When last seen she was said TO be
eating piece OF hog that she had lust
killed Camden Jour,iul.

The most important question before
the present Congress which meets next
December, unless sooner convened in
extra session, is the election OF Speaker.
The most prominent candidates now are
eASpeaker Randall, Of Pennsylvania,
and Mr.. Carlisle, of Kentucky. Both
men are staunch Democrats, Of undoubt-
ed ability, and either would make an
excellent presiding officer. Mr.. Randall is
probably superior to any member Of the
present Congress as parliamentarian,
but he Is not i'll sympathy with his party
upon the important question Of tariff
legislation. Mr.. Carlisle is in full accord
with the Democracy on this point, and is
also good parliamentarian, and \ fair
and prudent man. These qualities, there
fore, seem ct present to Indicate him Us
the most suitable man for the Speaker
ship of the present Congress. Mr.. Ran.
dali can serve the party better OH the

The United States District Attorney
fo- South Carolina il preparing IN
active campaign against the Democratic
party of this State, under the guse OF
prosecutions for the violation Of the
United States election laws. We have
heretofore shown that in thus arraigning
our people, the Republican party are
not seeking fol the purity of elections,
but for political capital to go before the
country upon M the champions of fair
elections. l'y controlling the United
States Courts, and the prosecuting At
torneys, the United Stntes Commissioners
and by packing .iuries, they hive been
able so far to make an altogether one
sided exhibit OH this question before the
country. There aro very seldom any
cases of Republican fraud at elections
prosecuted in the United States Courts
1t is only, to judge from the record as
made in tbeso Courts by the Republican
administration, the Democrats who COM
nit election frauds, although 1t ia noto-
rious as matter Of fact that the com.
mission .na repetition Of election frauds
has again and again been necessary to
save the Republican party from defeat.
These prosecutions throughout the
United States arc ene.sided and unfair,
but in South Carolina they reach their
acme of infamy. Here it is that the
general government resorts to periured
testimony and packed juries to convict
respectable men of crimes of which they
are clearly innocent, and of which they
would readily be acquitted With anything
approximuting n fair trial. But here
they must have convictions, the manner
Of securing which is of utter indifference.
Hence down here We find the govern.
ment sanctioning all sorts of little petty
meanness and spite towards the citizen.
Insult and wrong is freely resorted to by
their officers, to annoy where they can
do nothing more. Large numbe,s OF
arrests are being made over the State,
and in some cases, like those from Fair.
field, when the witnesses do not swear
TO enough 70 justify taking the cases

business is an outrage upon decency and
justice, which should consign the men

= a remarkable meteor was seen in
portions Of Virginia on the morning of
the 4th instant, and it lighted up the sur.
rounding country brilliantly. Its course
was from northwest near the zenith
toward the southwest at the horizon. In
color and appearance it rescmbled a
huge electric light and was most mag
nifcent sight. This meteor seems to
have been, from the extent of territory il
covered, one of the most remarkable of
its species, if not altogether the most
remarkable. From the accounts already
in, it seems to have seen and heard
simultaneously at Richmond, Fredricks.
burg, Petersburg, Charlottesville. at
Louisa and Madison Courthouses, and no
doubt at other points, covering nearly
the entire central portion of Virginia.
The light at Petersburg was bright
enough to read small print by, and at
other points almost equal in brilliancy.
while at Louisa Courthouse the explosion
shook houses and exhibited all the effects
OF an earthquake. The fact of its being
seen and heard at the same time in 30
many different and widely separated
places, all about the same distance from
Richmond, shows that it must have been
at a very high altitude in It's passage
athwart the skies; while the noise of its
explosion, which was 80 great az to shake
the earth at certain points, proves that il
was OF immense proportions.

Let the Young Folks Marry.

The pretty story that is going the rounds
from Washington Of the way young Mr.. Ma
gruder Hugh and young Miss Minnie O'Dowd
outwitted the elder Mr.. Hugh and the elder
Mr.. O'Dowd, got their nuptial knot all tied
secret and came back for their parents bless
ing, is full Of suggestions for times like these.
OF course young people have done that before
and will do it again. The surest way to hasten
young lovers into matrmony is to oppose
their designs. Often enough lovers tire Of
each other. or find out that they are not as
absolutely dependent on each other as they
thought, when left TO themselves. But try to
train up child, and away he will 60 ; and
especially she.
In this instance they both went And is it
not something TO encourage rather than dis
courage ? That is, ought not parents to en-
courage rather than discourage them, as they
often do The tendency OF modern society
is away ON early marriages, especially love
marriages. The merest children are talking
OF marrying for money later on. Thoughtful
people have no doubt as to the sort Of social
life this will produce eventually and how ut
terly it will vi,iate all the little sacredness Of
duty is the only force that will stand by human
beings in the relations involved in every human
existence.
Young people will fall in love. The de.
sires Of nature are not subject to parental
control. OF course, they can be edu-
Gated. but to far less extent
than philosophers dream. They will assert
themselves, and it seems to us that parents
would be far better employed watching any
genuine affections that arise, and in encour-
aging the same toward actual early marriage,
aiding the young folks financially and every
way, rather than in checking only the best OF
their impulses. 1t is possible, too, that young
folks whose parents are poor would often do
better were they 10 marry young and by mutual
fidelity help each other than in sowing wild
oats for future harvest oil crime. 1t is 40 APP
peal to parents for more sensible and gene
raj policy toward their children, and an appeal
to the young to return to the heroism Of
sound hearts again.

Tildsn's house is burglar proof. The pro-
lection is an invention Of Mr.. Tilden. In
every window Of his house there is diamond
net work Of strong bars Of steel. This net
work meets in the centre Of the window, lock-
ing with a spring lock rs II comes together.
In the day time this can be unlocked and slid
together in little recess on each side Of the
window, out Of sight. A burglar, to get
through this net work, would have to cut away
steel bars over a surface the size OF his body.
In the bow windows there arc the same steel
guards shutting on a line with the sliding
doors. A passenger elevator runs from the
basement TO the top OF the roof.

was there with his wagon and his cures. lie
hsrangued the crowd for 40 minutes before
he made the least impression, and then an old
man began to edge up in a sneaking kind Of
way.
''Do you suffer with dyspepsia p asked the
doctor.

"Then my compound Of the a different

A woman advanced and took the old man

she stopped him with

"And i-ah-and I-ah-notce that he is
predisposed TO dropsy," continued the doctor
as he waved his bottle around. "Ths elixir

and funeral procession is seen winding its

The old man went down again, but the wife
gave him push and called out;
