that the Secretary of War delays signing

Tho Paris correspondent of the Times
telegraphs that the Porte's first reply to
the powers is a dead letter. The Porte's
second reply is now officially known, I be
lieve, and this reply ho3 been communi
cated to me. Its important points are
regarding the armistico and tho adminis
tration of the Christian provinces.
The Porte refuses to accept the term
“armistice” because it cannot recognize
Servia as a belligerent; bnt consents to
a suspension of hostilities—the duration
not to be given—provided tho Servian
army shall net, meanwhile, be reinforced
by foreigners.
As to the second point the Porte ac
cepts tho proposal of the power*, in
principle, but proposes to give all its
provinces tbe same liberties without dis
tinction. The Porte considers it nbso
lately ruinous to introduce different treat
ment into the provinces. It is willing
to place the reforms under the colie tivo
guidance of Europe. In short, the Porte
says cither you wish I should take my
place among civilized Sta’ea, and are wil
ling to consolidate me by giving all my
subjects the same laws, privileges and
security, or yon persist in exaggerating
division and antagonism, because you
only wish to delay, not prevent, my de
struction. If the latter is the case, I pre
ferto struggle now at the risk of periah
lug, rather than resign myself to a slower
but inevitable death.

Nbw Yobk, October 11.—Tho morning
■ mpers on the elections have the follow
ing: The Tribune says Indiana seems
carried by the Bepnblicans, thongh close.
Harrison lead3 his ticket everywhere,
and is probably elected. Holman, Dem
ocrat, is defeated for Congress.
Ohio returns are more definite, both
K ies claiming the State. The Repnh •
is haTO made gains In nearly all sec
tions.
The World has detailed returns lack
ing from Indiana. The indications in
variably are the Democrats have carried
the State by 10,000 to 20,000. TheDem-
ocrats folly hold their own in tho Con
gressional districts.
In Ohio the heavy Democratic gains
in the cities qnite overcome the narrow
majority for Hayes last year. Unless
the rnral Republican vote is much larger
than expected, the State is sure for the
Democracy by 3,000 to 5,000. ' i
The Time* says in Ohio the' Republi
cans have carried the State by at least
7,000, and at least 12 ont 28 Congress
men. In Indiana Harrison is probably
elected Governor. The rest of the ticket
is probably defeated. Scattering returns
indicate that the Republicans have elect
ed 8 ont ot 13 Congressmen. Tho ro>
turns from West Virginia are not suffi
cient to indicate the leshlt.

advance into Montenegro checked.
The Times, in its leading editorial this
morning, says it it iB trne that an armis
tice has been granted, there is still good
hope for peace, and Turkey has placed
herself right. Should Scrvia refuse the
armistice she would forfeit all claim to
consideration. If this armistice is con
cluded there will be sufficient time for
patient and thorough consideration, and
time ia of incalculable value, for war, and
war on a gigantic scale will certainly fol
low unless some scheme for good govern
ment in the provinces of Turkey is guar
a* teed.
Columbia, Ootober 10.—The Demo
cratic State Executive Committee pub
lish additional letters from the Judges of
the State, testifying to ignorance of law
lessness and resistance to the courts.

ported that arrests will be made by

Augusta, October 11.—The Augusta Ex
change report is based on 26 replies from
17 counties of the average date of Sep
tember 30. The weather from the 1st
to the 10th, and in some counties to the
12tb, was dry and hot, causing a general
shedding of tbe yonng top crop and
rapid, and somewhat premature opening
of grown bolls. From the 10th to the
12th some heavy winds and rain storms
were general in this section, blowing and
bearing some open cotton and injuring
the quality of what was open. There
was frost in some localities Octsber 1st,
bnt no damage is reported to the cotton
plant. The drought of the early part of
the month caused the young fruit to
turn np. The storms during the middle
of the month had an effect on the qnali.
ty, bnt not on the quantity of tbe crop.
The damage suffered by the crop is
mainly from frost and consequent shod-
ding, and amounts probably to fifteen or
twenty per cent. No damage from rot or
worms, except on very few river bottom
fields. Picking in progressing tapidly.
Fully three fourths of the crop is open,
A large number of extia hands are em
ployed at cash wages. Probably half the
cotton is picked. The yield is reported
abont the eame as last year. The loss
suffered by planters from August 10th to
September 10th was so great a percent
age of their previous expectations that
many are inclined to under estimate the
yield in view, and that in all probability,
based upon most reliable information,
this section will make about ten per cent,
more cotton this year.
Nxw Orleans, October 11.—Among
the many lost on the Southern Belle are,
Wm. Von Ponl, Mr. Derose and Miss
Fannie O'Connor and another lady-of
Baton Rouge ; Mr. Franks, Port Hudson ;
Mr. Lingom and steward and his crew.

sleeping in tho afterpirt of the boat
were horned to death, a3 after the fire
had onco got fairly under way, it was
almost impossible to get to tho bow.
The only way to escape was to swim to
the shore.
The cargo consisted of 500 to 800 bales
of cotton Tho boat was valued at
$45,000, and insured for^$30,000 in New
Orleans companies.

issued convening tbe Senate and Cham
ber Deputies 30th Ootober.
Loneon. October 11.—A Reuter tele
gram from Constantinople says at the ex
traordinary council yesterday, which de
cidedto grant a six months’amiatice, a
strong opposition to aay armistice was
at first expressed. The council agreed
that a six weeks’Jarmisrice os proposed by
the powers might, from its shortness, so
riously endanger Tuikey in an improba
ble ovens of the failure of peace.
Theconncil therefore decided that the
Porte should communicato to the powers
the conditions on which it would consent
to a six months’ armistice, which, in its
opinion, would have tho following adran-
tages, namely: Ecable the Porte to allay
excitement amongst the Mnsselmen, not
expose the Porte to the risk of having to
resnme hostilities daring the inclement
season, and afford an interval which
would facilitate an understanding upon
the conditions of peace and general re
forms to be introduced. A ratification of
tho Porte’s acceptance of the armistice
in this eense will be made to the ambas
sadors to-day. It is believed here that
the Porto’s conditions will be accepted.
The Financier, in a leading article,
states very positively that it has reason
to believe the Porte’s acceptance of Earl
Derby’s peace proposals will be announced
almost immediately.

day says the Servian Council of Ministers
to day docided to accept the regular ar
mistice soon as proposed to them by the
Consuls of the great powers. In this

terday says tho British, Russian, Austrian

Columbia, October 9.—The following
address was issued by Gov. Chamberlain
to-day:
Columbia, S. 0, Oetober 9,1876.
To the People of the United States: An
effort having been made by the official
representatives of the Democratic party
ot this State to deny the facts and condi
tion of affairs which were set forth in
my recent letter to the chairman of the
Democratic State Executive Committee,
and upon which my proclamation of tbe
7th inat. rests, I deem it my duty to say,
upon my full official responsibility, that
I am at this momqpt in possession of an
thentic legal evidence to substantiate
every fact and statement made by me in
the documents above referred to, and I
further assert, upon my full official and
personal responsibility, that the lawless
ness, terrorism and violence to which I
have referred far exceed in extent and
atrocity any statements yet made public.
This latter statement rests npon the evi
dence in my hands of persons who have
officially investigated the facts at the
places where they occurred, and npon
the affidavits of United States army offi
cers who were present at the scenes of
violence and murder.
Tke Hon. D. T. Corbin, United States
District Attorney for the State, who has
personally made a separate and indepen
dent investigation of the Ellenton riot,
furnishes me with the following state
ment of the results reached by him; a
statement, as will bo seen, more than
verifying my statements and vindicating
my action. Of the four judges whose
statements are presented by the official
representatives of the Demccrario party
as impeaching my statements, not one
professes to have any knowledge of the
i’acts stated by mo, and of the two Re
publican judges, Jndge Moses disclaims
any 6uch knowledge, and Jndgo Willard
states that he has been absent from the
State for the past three months. All the
evideme in my hands and in the hands
of the United States District Attorney
will bo made public as soon as the inter
est of public justice will permit it. I
pledge myself to tho country to prove a
condition of affairs in this State produced
by tho Democratic party more disgrace
ful than any statement yet made by me,
and I shall not stay my hand until pun-
ishment overtakes its guilty authors.
My only offenco is too great caution in
obtaining evidence, and too great delay
in exercising my utmost power to pro
tect our citizens.
D. H. Chamberlain,
Governor ot Sonth Carolina.
DISTRICT ATTORNEY COBBIN’s REPORT.
Columbia, October 9, 1876.
To Governor D. H. Chamberlain: Dear
Sib—You having asked of me a state-
ment of the general condition of affairs
in Aiken county, as I found them to be
in my visit daring the past week, I have
the honor to state that I spent three
days in Aiken, and had before me, and
took tho affidavits of, a considerable num-
ber of citizens from different parts of
the county. I find that rifle clubs, or
regular military organizations, organiz
ed substantially after the manner of mil
itary companies in tho United States
army, exist throughout the connty. The
officers of these companies are called
captains and lieutenants, and the snbor
dinate officers ore called sorgeants and
corporals. They are all armed with
weapons of various patents, but many of
them of the latest and most improved
kinds. Rifles and sixteen-shooters are
most common. Pistols are universal.
These companies meet at stated intervals
for drill in the varions military manceu
v'res. They are also subject to be called
out on occasion by their commanding
officers.
These clubs have created and aro caus
ing a perfect reign of terror. Tho colored
men are, many of them, living ont ot
doors and away from their houses at
nightfall. Many of them have been
killed, and many have been taken from
their beds at night and mercilessly
whipped, and others have been hnnted
with threats of mnrder and whipping,
who, thus far, by constant watchfnlness
and activity, have escaped. The white
men of these clubs are riding day and
night, and the colored men ore informed
that their only safety from death or
whipping lie3 in their signing an agree
ment pledging themselves to vote the
Democratic ticket in the coming election.
From tbe beBt information I could ob
tain in tbe rime I was in Aiken, I fix the
number of colored men killed in this
county alone by white men of these clabs,
daring the past three weeks, at thirteen
certainly, and at probably twenty-five or
thirty. The civil arm of the govern
ment in this connty is as powerless os
the wind to prevent these atrocities.
The sheriff ofttho county, if disposed, dare
not attempt to arrest tke perpetrators of
these crimes for fear of his own life be
ing taken. He did not, as I am credibly.
informed, go within seven miles ol the
eight hundred men, so estimated by
United States army officers who saw them
assembled under the command of A. P.
Butler, near Rouse’s Bridge, and march
ing upon a crowd of colored men there,
whom they had surrounded and intended,
as scores of them allege, to U1L
In conclusion I have only to say that
the condition of affairs in Aiken connty
rivals the worst demonstration of the
Kn-Klox Klan in 1870 and 1871. In my
