Hard on Jefferson.
In a recent debate in the Senate on
the bill of Morton for counting the
Presidential vote, Morton said he had
never regarded it as a party measure,
lie spoke at some length, as to the ne
cessity of having anew law on this sub
ject, and said since the bill had passed
the Senate a circumstance had been dis
covered which would startle the country
when made public.
Bayard inquired as to what was the
nature of it.
Morton said ho would not mention
names, but it was a case where the Tice
President was counting the vote for
President, being himself a candidate, and
counted a false or void return in his own
favor. The fact was in possession of
one of the Senators from Vermont.
Bayard, of Delaware, spoke in favor of
reconsidering the vote, and the necessity
for a more perfect law on the subject.
Thurman, referring to the statement
of the Senator from Indiana (Morton)
in regard to a vice President counting a
false vote said he had seen it stated in
newspapers that the vice President, when
his attention was called to the fact that
the return was false, directed the clerk
to the count and then tore up the paper.
That great man never did such a thing.
It was no use to conceal the name of that
man. It was no less than he whose hand
wrote the declaration of independence ;
it was no less than Thomas Jefferson.
It would not do now to make such a
charge as that against him. Thurman
would wait for the production of the
eveidence, and he ventured to say that
when it was produced there would be
nothing in it to impugn the integrity of
Mr. Jefferson.
After further discussion by Burnside,
Randolph, Maxey, Merrimon, and others
the vote by which the bill was passed
w’as reconsidered, yeas 31 nays 23. The
bill w'as placed on the calendar.
OIJBI WASHINGTON I.ETTER.
FItOM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT.
Washington, D. C., April 24, 1876.
As some of the Democratic papers seem in
ciined to take up the Radical cry a “that Congress
is doing nothing,” it may not bo amiss to s ( -e
whatit has done. All the smaller appropria
tion bills has been discussed until nearly the last
section has been reached, and it will be passed
this week. The bill transferring the Indian Bu
reau from the Interior to the War Department,
has also passed. A tariff bill has been reported,
and is ready for discussion, while a great num
ber of minor, and personal bills have been acted
bn by the House. The appropriation bills as re
ported by the committee, saves the government
forty millions of dollars, and because of this,
have been fought on every stage, and in every
conceivable way by the republicans, as all the
money appropriated by Congress, goes into tlie
pockets, or lias to be disbursed by republican
officials, the friends of these officials in the
House use every endeavor to prevent the reduo
tion ot salaries, and of appropriations, as the
chances to steal on them lessened.
Tlie Senate, by a strict party vote, lias raised
the amounts appropriated in tlie various hills
winch have passed the House, from the sums
deemed proper by the representatives of tlie
people, who, under the constitution, are alone
authorized to originate appropriation bills, to
about the amounts given last year by a Repub
lican House. The Democrats of the House
Will not submit to the interference with its pre
rogative by the Senate, and very properly re
fused to ask for, or order a conference commit
tee.
Besides the work enumerated, the House lias
laid hare the corruption of Radicalism. It has
shown that every post and department of the
government is tainted with fraud, or worse still,
a den of thieves. It has shown a Cabinet officer
living shamelessly upon bribes—the private Se
cretaiy, and confidential friend of the President
engaged in plotting a burglary, intended to min
an honest man, and the President himself divert
ing the use of public funds to aid in corrupting
voters. If no bill has passed tho House, the
woik it. has done in exposing, and rendering
impossible for the future the frauds and rob
beries of the past six years, it would mark it
as having accomplished more than any other
Congress since the war.
It is now considered quite certain that should
the Senate determine that it has tlie power to
try Belkr.ap, notwithstanding his resignation, it
will not be possible to commence the trial of
the facts before about the Ist, of May, the inter
vening time from Wednesday till then will tie
consumed by the arguments of the counsel on
the plea, that a resigned officer cannot be tried,
and the discussion in the Senate on that ques
tion.
Judge Cartter will probably render bis
decision in the Kilbourn case by Wednesday.
Should he decide to turn Kilbourn loose, there
is no question but what the House should order
■his re arrest; otherwise all attempts at imvesti
gation may as well cease, as no witness could
be compelled to answer.
The fact that the delegates to the New York
Convention arc almost unanimously for Tilden
as the Democratic candidate for President
stiengthens l ira in the race, though I find a
strong feeling here that the candidate ought to
come from the West. It is said that New York
has furnished the candidate three times in sue
cession, and we havebocn beaten each time ; and
that now it should furnish the votes, and let
some other section offer the man. The South
ern men would generally prefer a Western man
from the Mississippi valley ; but they pledge a
united South to the St. Louis nominee, let him
be who he may.
Colliding is pressed by the administration for
the Cincinnati nomination, and his friends now
claim that after a complimentary vote, they will
make him formidable.
There is no news from Europe of interest.
The Government in Mexico is making vigor
ous efforts to suppress the Diaz revolution and
there is a prospect of considerable fighting in
that country, which will never have peace until
Uncle Sam takes it in hand. Reno.

An Important Curejby Dr, Tutt's Expectorant.
We have been informed by Mrs. Williams,
grand-daughter of Gen. Israel Putnam, that she
suffered for many years with Asthma, accompa
nied with great difficulty of breathing. Indeed,
she says, it prevented her from lying in a recum
bent position, and often suffocation appeared
inevitable, for which she used Tutt’s Expectorant.
The relief wasso great that she was encouraged
to persevere in its use until every vestige of the
painful disease was entirely removed.
‘■We can not speak too highly of this valua
ble preparation of Dr. Tutt, and for the sake of
suffering humanity hope that it may become
more generally known.”-Christian Advocate. 2t
When a thief enters a house in Paris
and carries off all the valubles, along

OTHER PAPER.
Prog Hunting 1
A few evenings ago Dr. Mathews and
our Town Marshal were seen going out
of town with their guns and a lantern.
No one knew what they were up to, but
next morning told they had fine sport
shooting frogs. They shined their eyes
with the light, and shot them, killing
thirteen fine ones, some as large as
a saddle-skirt.
Town Lots for Sale.
On sale day in July, there will be sold
in the town of Hartwell, twenty six 1
valuable lots belong to the county. The
most of them are desirable lots, and
finely located, and offer a line chance to
persons desiring to build houses and lo
cate in our nourishing town.
Our Music School,
Our estimable and accomplished music
teacher, Miss Annie Jourdan, proposes
to give a musical entertainment at the
close of the present session, which will
be at the emse of our high school for
the spring term. Her class has not been
very large during the present term, but
with the fall session we bespeak are
nevved interest and patronage to her
school.
House for Rent
Mr. J. C. Fowler has removed to his
plantation, five miles from Hartwell, at
old Brown's Ferry on the Savannah
river, as liia planting interest required
his presence at home. He has been
living in tho house belonging to J. B.
Benson, from whom he rented for the
present year. He desires to re-rent for
the remainder of the year, it is a de
sirable house for a small family, and can
be rented for a small sum for the bal
ance of the year. Apply to Mr. Win. T.
Holland in Hartwell.
Steam Saw Mill
Is in fine working order, and is doing a
good business, turning out daily from
live to ten thousand feet of plank. The
company have taken some pains to make
this site convenient of access, and have
succeeded wonderfully in their efforts.
The mill is under the superintendence
of Mr. Waites Prcfiit, who run the mill
last year for Messrs. Hodges & Cos. He
is an experienced mechanic, and keeps
everything in apple-pie order on the
premises. As soon as the farmers lay
by their crops the mill will be crowded
with logs, and will do a heavy business.
Tia Sliop—New Industry.
We are proud to chronicle from week
to week, the establishment in our town
of new industries ; not stores, or clap
traps to take the people’s money-, but
hard working mechanics, who come hero
to! produce. We have now- a tin shop
which is supplying this county with all
sorts of tin ware, from a tin dipper to a
tin-roof. The firm who have invested in
the new enterprise are Messrs. Gantt
Brothers, of Lowndesviile, South Caro
lina. Their business is under the super
intendence of Mr. George J. Page, who
is an efficient young man, and brimful
of integrity and hard sense. May they
be crownud with success.
Our Jail.
Last week a negro named Lawrence
Lofton was put in our jail, for the offense
of rape on a negro girl some nine years
of age. He had been teaching a negro
school, as well as preaching for the col
ored people in Alford's district When
put in jail he refused to eat, and feigned
insanity, and Saturday morning when
the jailor went to feed him, he found him
stripped of his clothes, and when ho
opened the door, he jumped out over the
heads of the outsiders and took to his
heels. He was followed by a negro man
named Dock Gary who pursued him
some 300 yards and captured him. He
has not eaten or drank anything since
Thursday morning. He worked all last
night endeavoring to break out, and this
morning our sheriff had him securely
chained down. It is the opinion of the
doctors that he is feigning insanity in
order to get out, but whether he is or
not, he is a dangerous character and
should be closely confined.
Justice Coum--'Ray’s District.
This court was occupied for two days
of last week in trying the case of Sallie
; Teazely, colored, vs. Moses Brown, for
| bastardy. The case caused considerable
j interest and excitement in the neighbor-
I hood, aud is one of that class of cases
I caused by tlie results of the war. That
| a respectable and good citizen should be
arrested, by a negro wench, and tried on
| a warrant of this sort, is very much to
j be deplored by all good citizens ; and
I only goes to prove that we have aecepte and
| the situation, and are willing to give fiee
privileges to all classes, regardless of
race or previous condition. The evi
dence was very voluminous, and is not
worthy of reproduction. Tho court con
sisted of Esquires Sober Williams,
Banks Cunningham and B. D. Johnson,
! who after their investigation, ordered
the defendant to the next Superior
| Court, under a bond of SIOO The do
i fense was represented by Major J. H.
Skelton. The plaintiff was represented
by Col. J. T. Osborn with his usual zeal.
Two old citizens of the county, inter
rupted the court very much during the
proceedings, in playing marbles in the
yard, just iu front of the court, and the
way they occasionally plumped the mid
: die man was a caution. So much so
! that tlie court would stop occasionally
to witness their dexterity. The court
was held on a dry goods box, at the
north end of Pat Bowers’ store ‘house,
which moved as the sun moved, very
much to the inconvenience of the attor
j neys, who would have to pick up their
books and papers off the ground and j
follow on around. There was a large
crowd out, to hear tho proceedings, and j
if the case had lasted two weeks there !
would have been many crops lost in that
neighborhood. There was also a civil
case tried at the same term of this hon
orable court, which was the case of
Stephen Carlton, vs. M. I’. Johnson and
Wm. N. Johnson, who were joint con
tractors, for work done by Carlton, in
which the plea of “non est factum” was
filed by M. P. Johnson. After hearing
the evidence Ihe lawyers (Skelton for
defense and Orsborn for planhiff) agreed
to an argument of live minutes each ;
and a distinguished citizen of that dis
triet (very earnest in RR. enterprise)
was appointed to hold the watch and
keep time. He performed his task with
wonderful alacrity, and was the very pic
ture cf atiraeist, for, sitting on a cord of
wood, with his old blue coat tied around
his waist, just above liis hips, now and
then biting a piece off of a ginger cake,
just as soon as the five minutes was up,
he would shrill out times up ! times up!
and run right up to the speaker and
silence him in the middle of his argu
ment. He is greatly to be praised, for
he faithfully carried out the mandates of
that court.
The court gave judgment against the
and offend ants.
Bill Fleming the wit of the county
was out in all his glory, and as the case
proceeded he would interrupt the court
by “Its time for the House to adjourn.”
“Let’s liquor,” “Crops will be ruined if
we don't go home,” &c, fcc.
The writer was not present at this in
vestigation very much to his regret, and
therefore can only chronicle the events
as they! transpired from tho lips of per
sons who were there. Suffice to say
that two days court will long be remem
btred by the citizens of Ray’s district ! §
