knowledge that other nations have of

the certainty that any assault upon us

AS far as the real interests of the

Critic shows his old time cleverness and
Us full of fight.
Round 2-Griffo showed his remarkable

throughout the round.

Iowndes.

Letohatchie, April l.)-rhis
county is for Johnston. The correspond
ent from this place to the Advertiser err
roneously reported the beat meeting here
Saturday in regard to one w. A. Brown,
who was repoted as being a prominent
Johnston man, when in truth he was a
negative Johnston man, but affiliated
with the Clarke men in the hope of se-
curing the nomination for justice of the
peace, but as the Clarke men were in the
minority and failed to nominate him, he
then went into the republican beat meet
ing and sought the nomination by the ne
groes. Letting down the bars did not
effect the eligibility of Brown.
Hayneville, April 13-(Special.)-It Is
simply impossible to get definite informa-
ton at this writing from some parts of
this county, hence it cannot be said who
has carried Lowndes. Judge Caffey has
carried every beat for auditor, but the
same beats do not report as to governor

A Fraudulent Scheme.

Washington. April 49, - Postmaster
General Wilson today declared that the
United States slave owners registrat ton
bureau of Washington ID. c., was In vio-
lation of the postal regulations and was
not entitled to the privileges of the
mails. This bureau was but recently in
corporated under the laws of the district,
and the department made an investga-
tion of it's methods of business. 1t was
ascertaned that three of the incopora-
tors of the bureau gave Washington as
their residence, but none resided In the
district at the time of Incorporation.
They have just esta blished offices here
but began doing business in a sub-office
In Savannah, Ca, several weeks ago by
sending out literature. The plan of the
bureau was to secure a record of all per-
sons holding slaves on January ], 1863
Instructions and blanks were sent out to
ex-save holders or their heirs for them
to state the number of slaves owned and
their sex. These blanks were to be filed
out by ex-slaveholders and returned to
the bureau with fee of from 81 to IS,
the bureau promising to have bills in
troduced in congress looking to repay
ment for slaves. The report of the post
office inspector is that the scheme is a
fraud, pure and simple.
