body. He has served the people IN
other positions, and has proven himself
worthy of all the honors that have been
bestowed upon him. We have known
Gov. McSweeney intimately for fifteen
years, and it gives us peculiar pleasure
to speak a word in his behalf. Ills
parents died in Charleston when he
was only years Of age, and in his BOY
hood he learned the printers trade.
Like all poor boys he had a hard strug-
gle, but being possessed OF remarkable
energy and a high sense Of honor, ne
has pushed steadily forward and made
a success of his business and friend OF
every acquaintance. In 1877 ne made
his first venture in journalism at
Ninety Six and two years later moved
to Hampton, where he has ever since
published the Hampton Guardian, one
Of South Cardinals best country week
lies. True merit will always win, and
his example should be an incentive to
other poor, struggling boys in South
Carolina. Here's our hand, Gov. Nc
Sweeney, and may the great Governor
of the universe guide and direct you in
the discharge Of your duties as the
successor Of the lamented Ellerbe.

More Georgia Horrors.

ATLANTA, GA, June 3.-A special to
the Constitution from Cedartown, Ga,
says: The Polk County Jail here is sur
rounded at II o'clock tonight by a
mob Of three hundred men, clamoring
for Grant Bell, a vagabond negro, who
was placed there to-day for brutal
assault upon Mrs. j. C.. Lumpkin, a
widow IS years Of age, at an early hour
this morning. Deputy Sheriff Hogg
and his deputies say they will protect
the prisoner and trouble is feared.
Mrs. Lumpkin's husband was the late
J. c. Lumpkin, a son of Ex-Governor
Lumpkin, of Georgia, and she is rela-
ted to Judge Lumpkin, of Atlanta.
Bell stoutly denies the charge. He
sits crouched in his cell, trembling with
fear. Several prominent citizens are
talking to the mob in an effort to in
duce them to let the law take its
course.
POWDER SPRINGS, Ca, June b
News has just reached here OF the as
sault upon the eight-year-oM daughter
of Mr.. John Smith, q we'll do farmer,
who lives i've miles north Of here, by
Harvey Menni6eld, a negro employed
on Mr.. Smiths farm. The crime was
committed late yesterday afternoon.
After the crime was discovered 1T
was decided to keep quiet, and by this
means it was thought that the capture
of Mennifeld would be effected with
out difficulty. Up to this hour he is
still at large, but is said to be sur,
rounded in swamp near Dallas. 1t
caught he will Undoubtedly be lynched.
The child is not expected to live.
Mennifeld is surrounded in a swamp
one mile from Sweetwatcr Park Hotel,
Lithia Springs, tonight. All the men
guests of the big hotel have turned out
and are doing guard duty. The swamp
is absolutely impenetrable after dark
and the searchers have decided to wait
for daylight before trying to find Men
niheld. The ne gro is in the employ of
the Southern Railway, and it is thought
he may try to make his way to the
railroad and escape, but the swamp is
entirely surrounded and he cannot get
| away.
