dently doubted li * honesty. The New

he haa never failed to respond when Ilia

the Republicans in advance that they

We are not given to prophesying cvt 1
against the day of evil, but It is evident
lliat our ennae is in the hands of the
enemy, mid we have nothing upon wliieli
to rely except tbo imaginary honesty of
Radical politicians.
On Thursday !al tlie Commission
organized in the hall of tho Supremo
Court in Wellington, Jastiee Clifford
presiding, and proceeded to busiuasa.
The conflicting oertlfloates from Florida,
and the objection* thereto were received
from Ferry, Vice President, prk tern.,
for consideration. Win. M. Evert* and
E. W. Htrongliton, of New Yoik; and

Charlee O'Connor, of New York ; Jere
miah Black, of Pennsylvania; It. W.

Thursday last, February 1 at, llw two
Houses of Congress convened in joint
amadou for the purpose et oounting the
voUwfor President aud Vice President
of the United Stales. Senator W. T.
Forry, President pro tem of the Senate,
presiding. The law require* the States
to be called alphabetically, and, there
fore, Alabama came first. From the
bluster of Sherman, the uppo uittellt
of investigating committees, charßCs
of fraud and intimidation, Ac., ve
certainly expected that some objection
would be Offered by Ihe Bupublioun* to
tlw counting of tlie vote of this Stale.
But tliere waa none, and Oongreaamau
Cook, of (hmrgia, one of the tellers, hsd
the Honor of antiont'ciiig the first vote
for the Democratic candidates —ten votes
tor Tiblen and ten votes tor Hendricks.
Arkansas followed with six votes for the
same. Then came California v ith six
votes for Hnyee and six votes for Wheeler.
Colorado followed with three votes for
the same. Then Connecticut, with six
votes for Tildeu aud Hendricks; and
Delaware witli three more the same,
mnkiug twenty-five votes for Tildeu anil
Hetidrioks, ami nine for Hayes and
Wheeler.
And Mien Florida was called, ami here
the j Mitt Houses struck the first snug.
There are three returns from this State.
First, tho certificates of the llayes elec ;

certificates of Tildeu electors, s'gued by !
Jinlge Cocke, amt finally the certified |
proceedings of the board of cunvasaers, '

Ijcgiainture, and signeil by Oov. Drew,
declaring tlie Til hm electors elccteil.
Wlivn objections were called for,

Below we give a synopsis of the testi
mony of the witnesses before the Con
gressional Committee, exposing tho vile
corruption of the Louisiana Bcturniiig
Board, anil establishing beyoud a doubt
that the orrigiual return* were so man
ipulated aa to show on their face a ma
jority for the Hays electors.
The Louisiana telegrams lmva been
delivered up to the Committee by Mana
ger Barnes. Senator West was first ex
amined, who refusing to answer import
ant questions, waa discharged. Kenner,
a negro member of the Board, was ex
amined and exhibited memoranda taken
by himself, showing numerous preeints
thrown otu on ground* of alleged intiro
iilatjog, Ac,, tot sjiowedfuoth
ittgtftimwijDg VeriifeiTarisli. jL
J. F. Littlefield, a clerk of tho Hoard,
at first refused to auswar questions, but
after udisving with his lawyer effered
to tell tho whole truth, under protest. He
stated that he was ordered by Wells to
trnns[H)Mi the returns of two poll* in
Vernon Parish, where there was not a
Radical vote polled, and make ft Radicnl
majority of 178. He said that the object
of Wells in doing this waa to elect the
Radical Judge, District Attorney and
State Senator, this being Wells' native
Pariah. He testified that the original
papers were destroyed by Wells in order
to conceal the crime. Also stated that
the affidavit* to establish these false re
turn* were innufnotured by the Board,
and names forged to them. Said that
he hail conversed with Kellogg before
giving Ins testimony, who advised and
requested him to stick to his party.
Well* and Aniteraou were brought be
fore the Committee, and were immedi
ately attacked with cramp* in the a lido- 1
men, rendering them too unwell to testi
fy, aud were returned to onatody.
Maddox, Tseasnry* Agent, who was
in constant eommunioatlnn with Wells
] under assumed uumes, at first refused to
j explain the meanlug of tlie letters with
these fictitious signatures, thou in the
hands of the committee. After consid
eration he agreed to answer questions.
The I’xcit meat in Washington was in
tense at this time. The counting of the
Eire UnIII vote Mas of small moment in
the estimation of politicians, in compari
son witli the examination of Maddox.
Alt expected him to make a full diaolo
sale of tlie cor npt proposals of Wells
for $300,000 for himself, and a smaller
amount for the negroes, to couut the
vote for either party. Witness waa re
eallisl and testified in the presence ot ,
Wells, who shuweil much uervonanasa
aud excitement during the examiuotien.
Thg negroes, Kenner end Csseosvn,
showed much much concern, as they lie
gan to realize the h- )X they were in, anil
indicated liiut tlmy Mould make a cleuu
breast of it all.
Maddox testified that he was instruct
ed by J. Madison Wells to go to Wash
ington snd state to the Republican *u- i
tliorities that their live* were in danger ; !
that tlie Democratic majority m*s larger j
Until he could well manage, and that lie
wanted money for the risky business. 1
Witness said that lie followed the iu- ;
aferoctions, and failed. Was then order- !
ed to negotiate with tlio Democratic an- 1
tliorities to count the State for Ikon, for
the sum of 81,000,000. Witness was
auhjfond to as arching cross-exsmiua
tion, by Republican*, but they fadeil to l
lire.ik tlie force of bis testimony, but, on
the contrary, allowed the wenkues. of
the theory of the defense of Wells.
Witness further testified that he luul
examined the records at New Orleans,
and found that lb* l State had gwue large
ly Democratic.

have placed iu office in the .South, ami ,

■ESinoe the excitement incident to tbo
■notorial election the Legislature seems
■ have got down to business. A perfect
Heinge of bill*, most of them of a local
nature, have been presented, but few
are of sufficient interest to publish, at
least anti) tiiey become laws.
'Die special committee of the House
to whom waa refered the subject of
reducing tiie Judicial Circuits of the
State, have made their rcjsirt, recom
mending tiie abolishing of four Circuits,
including this (the Augusta) Circnit, in
which event Richmond, Columbia and
McDuffie comities are to be added to
the Northern (Judge Pottle’s) Circnit,
and Bnrke to the Middle (Judge John
son’s) Circuit.
Of local bills, in which our immediate
section is interested, is the bill presented
** Dr. Jones, of this county, nt the
instance of several hundred petitioners,
to prohibit tho sale of liquors in the
comity. Of course the people of the
comity will hare an opportunity to vote
on tiie question Injure it becomes a law.
Also a bill to allow ail public sales by
| Sheriff's, Admitiisiomtors, Ac., in Me- ‘
Duffle county, to be held at the Depot
in the town of Thomson, instead of the
Conrtiionse, ns now required by law.
Also a trill introduced by Mr. Williams,
of Columbia, reducing the bond of the
Sheriff of that county from SIO,OOO to
$5,(100. To this bill onr Uepreaentative.
I)r. Joints, offered an amendment reduc
ing the I Kind of the Sheriff of this county
from SIO,OOO to 85,000, aud the bill as
amended passed.
Also tho bill prohibiting Hie sale of
liquors within one mile of Berzelia,
which has passed.
The Convention bill, as we have
before staled, has passed tho House by
a heavy majority, and is now before the 1
Senate. It is generally believed that the i
almost unanimous voice of tho poopl-:
iu favor of tiie measure will crush tiie
onptu us opposition of it# enemies, and
that a Convention may lie regarded as
one of the certainties.
