partment eliciis the information that the
government has now on hand about 130,-
100000 ounces Of fine silver, costing $llS,-
100000. The coinage value of the bullion

TIE AIMING or CoNsTApLEs EXCIrEs THE
PuDLIC. C.-Columbia, August 5.-The official
statcmc:: mia.o through the press this
morning. that the States cuustaDlcs were
going to be armed with Colts rcvolvers and
instructed to uso them whenever they deem
il necessary has been considerably talked Of.
For some reason there seems 10 he an idea
that somebody is going to get hurt as re-
suit of the instructions to the constalles and
that some innocent person will probably be
made to suffer. Although there has Leen
no breach of the peace il Columbia, the
iden' here seems to he that the tension Of
public feeling is drawn to its utmost extent
and that it would be ns unsafe for the con
stables to attack anyone q, it would be for
an outsider to attack Il constable. AltOgeth-
cr the situation is regarded M unsafe. and
people are afraid that some hothcadcd per-
son will prccipitatc trouble. OF course oil
law abiding citizens arc in favor of allow
ing the constabcs to go along with :hcir
work uninterruptcliy and would discountc
nance any attempt to interfere with them,
but if constable or the friends of tho
saloon men start the rcw there is liable to
nc considerable trouble. 1t would 10 well
if constablcs and citizens alike would keep
IN even temper and let things get al1ng
quietly -Sunddy NccS

5.Qy" We hav0 often seen and heard Of
boys being eggcd on to fight by their
SC hoolmatcs, but the charge that n United
States Senator and the Aijutant and Inspec-
tor General of Il state were legged on" to
mortal combat by certain Wainiucntial news
papers is too contemptibly absurd aud too
insulting to the honor of those gentlemen TO
be accepted 10y any but ahjcct politicians.
1t certainly has no weight with those who
know the two men In the first place, they
arc not such fools /, allow newspapers
politically opposed to them to egg them on
to do an act that would cause them to for
swear themselves, forfeit their offices and
deprive them of the right to hold office
thereafter.
Brave men require no prompting or egg
log on to dcfcud their honor aud good name,
but would be very likely to iniignantly say
to any otlicious intcrlo?cr, from either side
as Orhello said to Iago an Ra.lcrigo, Were
it my cue 10 fight, should have known it
without a prompter.

trions young Farmer, living just below this
town was so horribly gorcd by bull last
Wednesday afternoon that it is not probable
he will recover from it,
II seems that Mr.. Pcigler had chained the
bull around tho horns to n tree, and was in
the act Of putting some Goth under the chain
to keep it from rubbing the animals head,
when the brute turned upon him and tossed
him in the air. one of his horns penetrating
the lower part of h,s s.o:. ioi, ana body, terri

AbABAMA's SCHOOL TAx.-The Lcgisla-
ture of Alabama has presented to the vote of
the people constitutional amendment pro-
viding that the school taxes of the white
people shall be devoted to the education of
the white children, and that the schools for
the blacks shall receive for their support
only the taxes paid by the colored people
If this amendment is ratified there is dark
outlook for the colored children. 1t is csti-
mated that now fully S5 per cent. of the
money spent on the colorcd schools comes
out of the white peoples pockets.

THE EXCITEMENT IN SUMTER 5.
G., Aug. 7.-Sumter is on the qui rirc this
morning and developments of q startling
nature are expected. II is sure that ninc of
our citizens will be arrested soon, and it de-
pcnds upon who makes the arrests and the
manner of making them whether there will
be any excitement. Constable j. Il FAINT, Of
Anderson, is in the city in charge of the
coustables, and hc seems TO be the right man
in the right place. lle is conservative and
snys that reports Of Thursdays riot were
very much exaggerated. No raids will be
made today, so we are reliably informed.
Governor TilIman's utteranccs upon the
shooting down Of citizens has been severely
criticised on the streets. and many prominent
men arc very indignant at his efforts to stir
up strife among our people. Tho same blood
runs through the veins of our people IN
