Jour utllsm—Judge Gibson’s Remarks— A
Sad Uenlh.
[Special Correspondence Chronicle ami Sentinel. 1
Thomson, Ga , September 20.—As a
notice of the Court in session at this
place has already appeared in the
( HRONIOL* and Skntinkl, I will only
give some of the incidents of the occa
sion. Ou Monday nignt the local Brass
Band, with a large portion of the citi
zens of the town, serenaded the hotel
and called on Gen. Toombs for a speeob,
and, although a surprise to <he distin
guished orator, he responded in his usu
ally felicitous manner. He reviewed the
nff lira of the Stute aud Federal Govern
ment, spoke of the enormous burthens of
taxation that were oppressing the people,
and the teudencyof all to hopeless ruin,
unless a check was put to the plunder
ers aud thieves iu high places. He gave
a scathing rebuke to corporations, and to
the oity papers of Georgia that bad been '
bribed to advocate the interests of the
former. He thought the Chronicle and
Sentinel and the Savannah Neum were
the only two city papers in the State
that, met things fairly and squarely, and
were worthy the confidence and support
of the people. He paid a glowing tribute
to General Colquitt. He knew him in
his boyhood and his father before him,
had stood by him ou the field of battle,
iret him on the forum, before the people ■
of his country and iu sooial life, aud re- j
garded him as a pure patriot and oulti- i
vated Christian gentleman, one who
ought to be supported for Governor by
every man in Georgia. Amid deafening \
cheers the General closed his speech, }
aud a call was made for Judge Gibson, j
who, after a few minutes, appeared on
the portico of the tipper story of the i
hotel. The Judge said he was not ac
customed to making political speeches,
blit there was nothing in his
official relations derogatory to an ■
expression of opinion on pnblic |
sffiirs if he felt inclined to do so.
He allud 'd to the corruption that pre
vailed atntiug the officials of the Repub
lican party at Washington City, to the
shameless prostitution of the Judiciary
as in South Carolina, all of which were !
without a parallel iu the annals ot the 5
world. He sddiessed himself also to
the colored people, a considerable crowd
of whom were present, and told them 1
the beet they could do was to cultivate
frieudly relations with the whites.— j
It had been said that none pf them lmd
grown rich from their labor, but, be ask- <
ed how many white people bad become
rich, yea bow many of them with their !
wives aud children were in a state of'
hopeless insolvency. This all resulted ;
frem the reckless aud ruinous system of
fanning in the country. He was satis
fied that the successful cultivation of
the great staple of the South could best |
be doue by the colored race. They were
peculiarly adapted to the mule and the
climate, and no nation in the world
could furnish a system of labor to com
pete with them. He never could forget t
the devoted servants who took care of
his family during the war. aud had ever !
been faithful and true to him since. He
cautioned theta to beware of the carpet
baggers, whose only object was to swin
dle and rob them of all they had. The
colored people of Augusta deposited 1
eighty thousand dollars iu theFr jedmau s .
Saving ,’.'k and lost the whole of it.
Better !: these Yankee tricks and
schemes vo get their money alone. He
advised them to vote for Tilden and
Hendricks for the Presidency, Qen. I
Oolqmtt for Governor and Hon. A. H.
Stephens for Congress. Just such a
speech l think is calculated to do good,
ind hope the Judge will repeat it
wherever he goea. Dr. Jones is in deep
affliction from the loss of his son Edgar,
a promising young lawyer, who died in
Brunswick a'day or two ago with yellow
fever. The family have the sympathies
of the community in their sore bereave
ment. ' Visitor.
Brutal Outrage Near Branson.
[Cjpccroi to the Journal of Commem ]
Brunson, S. C., September £2. -We
have just received the startling intelli
gence that a highly respectable lady,
nine miles from this place, was met by
a negro man named Marcus Pinckney,
on yesterday, some distance from her
home and brutally assaulted, severely
choked, and outraged. He made violent
tijrcata agaipst wi;ite men, women and
ohildren in the community. He escaped,
but it is hoped the vigilance of the
community will not allow him to elude
their search entirely.

REAL SOUTHRRX OUTRAGES.
Condition ot Attain in Nmt Section* of the
Sontk.
[AVtc York World.]
The demagogues who have represent
ed the Bouthem white as a blood-thirsty
wolf, and the Southern negro as aiiog-
Buffering lamb without spot or blemish,
have been fed a good deal of late on rat
tailed files. The desperate political riot
iu Charleston, tbe murderous assanlts in
Onachita Parish, the many instances of
intimidatisn recently detailed in these
columns, sufficiently show from
which race political violence may
be expected in this campaign. A
white man, protecting helpless
people from a howling mob, is the first
victim of political intolerance in tht
South. But it is not in the matter of
politics that the Southern white man
has cause to fear the negro. Doubtless
he will be able to take care of his own
interests in that respect, and of the in
terests of those who have intrusted then
lives end fortunes to his care. It if
against midnight- arson and murder and
outrage upon the unprotected women
of his household that, waking and
sleeping, the American white man
of the South must now be always
ready to act. The Southern press is
filled with the shocking details of these
crimes, and it may be tairly said that no
planter in South Carolina or Louisiana
knows from day to day that his gins and
his mills will not be in smouldering
ruins before tbe morning shall dawn; no
j father or husband knows, when leaving
his fireside, if far from neighbors ami
from help, that he will not return to
find bis wife or daughter dead or worse
than dead; no woman can safely traverse
any loneiy path without a terrible fear to
haunt and hurry her stepts. This is do
exaggeration. Any reader of the daily
press need- only to keep his eyes open
to learn the awful truth. The columns
of the World, during the last few days,
have contained accounts of these bestial
outbreaks—among them the story of a
young maideD, the daughter of aChristian
' minister, whose pure life has beeu made a
lasting horror by a crime worthy of the
Turks m Bulgaria. Small wonder, then,
at the excitement which is reported to
ns this morning as existing in South
Carolina around the scenes of two more
such attempted outrages. In the negro
arsenal at Hamburg there were three or
four armed blacks whose complicity in
an assault upon a young girl of the
vicinity was more than suspected. Be
fore that fata) hour she had been a
fresh-faced and free-hearted child, the
daughter of a gallant soldier ; how she
roams purposeless about her desolate
home, mind and body alike wrecked
forever. Fancy the face of that crazed
child, as a father sees and, shudders at
it, white men oi the North, and then
ask yourselves what creatures they are
who for the sake of power and office,
here in the North, cau brand a fathers
vengeance for such a deed as violence
and lawlessness ! •
A FORGERY.
A Caiiipaiiige Lie Nailed.
Mobile, September 23.—The publish
ers of the Mobile Register denounce as
a forgery what purports to beau extract
from that journal now being quoted as
the views of John Forsyth ami the Rey
'ister. The forgery reads as follows:
“The grave question to be settled at
much cost is woat is to be done to get
ritl of the negro as a voter, booner or
later with more or less dispatch he will
oo disfranchised and thrust out of poli
tics, while menof all parties and of every
religious or moral conviction may as
well come quickly to the consideration
how to get the negro out of politics with
the least confusion and cost. He must
go, and there ia no profit in standing
long upon the order of his going. The
question of suffrage belong t to the
States respectively. Wueh the re-or
ganized Democfats of 1876 go into office
each State will be allowed to settle this
and all o her social aud domestic issueb
for itself and in its own way, without in
terference from the Geueral Govern
ment.” No such article ever appeared
in the Register. Oa the contrary, the
Register advocated and aided in secur
ing tue ratification of the exuding Con
stitution, framed aud adopted ,by the
Democrats, in which the following artiole
is incorporated as organic law: “No
educational or property qualification,
suffrage of officer nor any restraint upon
the same on account of l ace, color or
previous condition of servitude, shall be
made by law.” John L. Rapier it Cos.,

A FEARFUL CRIME.
A Young Girl Murdered by Being Thrust,
Head Down ward, Into Melted Tar.
\New York Sun.]
Thomas Porter and James Richards,
while walking along the Elysiao Fields
Road near Pratt’s Hotel, Hoboken, yes
terday afternoon, discovered the body
of a twelve-year-old girl floating in the
water. A boat was procured and the
corpse brought ashore. Ou examining
the hair, it was found to be matted with
a thick coat of tar, aud the face and
neck bore marks of the tar that had not
yet been washed away. The body was
dressed neatly in a check grenadine
dress, trimmed with silk, oautou flannel
drawers, brown and white striped stock
iugs, white muslin chemise, luce kid
shoes, and in her matted hair was a
scarlet silk bow, and in her left ear a
small gold ear-ring. Her underclothing
was torn, and there is every reason to
believe that after having been made
the victin of a foul outrage, she was
murdered by being thrust, head down
ward, into melted tar, aad so suffocated.
BUSINESS BRIGHTENING IN NEW YORK
Crowd* ©f Strangers, Full IlotelM and Busy
Merchants.
New York, September 20.- Every
hotel in New York is crowded with
guests, and at larger houses patrons are
being turned away for want of accommo
dations. Visitors are arriving in great
numbers from all parts of the country,
many of them ou their way to or from
the Centennial, but the larger portion
are here for the purpose of buying
goods. Trade geaeraliy is brightening,
and a steady growth of business is pre
dicted with increasing commercial con
fidence, and better and more stirring
times. Demaud for eastern bound
freight has beeu larger during the pres
ent month than dunug corresponding
months iu any preceding year. It nas
beeu found impossible to furnish suffi
cient transportation to meet the demand,
especially over the New York Central.
.MARTIAL LAW FOR THE SOUTH.

ltieui—Uuiient John and the K ©former.
Washington, September 22. The
New York Herald says the declaration
of martial law again in the South is
among near probabilities, and is now
under consideration, if the present st te
of uffairs become aggravated. The Star
says : Attorney-General Taft left for
Ohio late last night without having bad
auy consultation with Governor Cham
berlain about sending an additional
military force t-o South Carolina. Mr.
Wallace, the United States Marshal for
South Carolina, called at the Depart
ment of Justice to-day. He said-dhat
he was to have met Governor Chamber
lain in this city, but haviug failed to do
so, he supposes tljat the latter has gone
to Maine for his wife. Senator Pitter
son, in the meantime, has gone to Phila
delphia.

SOUTH CAROLINA.
PALMETTO NEWS LEAVES.
A Democratic meeting will be held at
Vernonsville on Saturday, the 80th in
stant. The public are iovited. Distin
guished speakers are expected.
Never ia the history of Newberry whs
witnessed such aiT fmmense turnout as
presented itself to the delighted people
of Newberry on Thursday last, the occa
sion of the great mass meeting.
Governor Chamberlain passed throu; L
Winnsboro on Tuesday night, on hit
way to Washington. The State capital
seems now located in the District of Co
lumbia. We presume the Governor has
gone to the seat of Government to talk
over the ticket aud the general situation
in South Carolina with the “bosses”
there.
A destructive fire occnrred at Union
Court House on Monday night, tbe 11th
instant. Home six or eight buildings
were destroyed, a good part of which
might have been saved bat for the want
of water and other requisites for extin
guishing a fire. The loss is estimated
at 818,000, nearly one-half of which was
covered by insurance.
A large Tilden and Hendricks, Hamp
ton and Simpson flag was raised at Lees
ville on Saturday last. Gen. Paul
Qnattlebaum delivered an appropriate
address on the occasion, followed by
B. F. Banks. Dr. John T. Dent spoke on
tbe part of tbe Republicans, aud was
replied to by onr young friend, C. P.
Qnattlebaum. Frank Fink also spoke
on the part of the Republicans, and was
replied to by D. I. Hendriz. Times
were lively and everything passed off
quietly.
On Friday morning last, as a young
orphan girl was gathering beans, near
Jooesvilio, S. C., an infamous negro
approached her, and made several in
decent proposals to her, and being
ordered away, he seized her and tried
to throw her down, and accomplish his
vile purpose. The shrieks and cries of
tbe helpless girl somewhat frightened
the villain, when he commenced chok
ing and threatening to cut her throat if
she did not desist her outcry. Whether
tue scoundrel’s heart failed him or not,
and her continual screaming for help,
the man let her loose and fled to the
woods. As soon as it was reported the
citizens of Jonesville immediately
searched for the man, but thus far has
eluded pnrsnit.
LATEST FROM THE FRONT.
All Quiot at Uou*e’# Bridge aud EJlenton
Tlie Federal Troop*, Ret lira to Aiken—At
tuck on Mr. IfcKie’d Ilouic-Negro Killed.
From parties who came up on the Port
Royal Railroad train yesterday after
noon, we igarned that all was quiet at
the scene -of the recent disturbances.
Gen. Hagood arrived at Steel Creek,
where three hundred white men were
comped, Wednesday afternoon. Yester
day morning with this force he rode
through the country but found no par
ties of armed negroes. Gen. Hagood
returned to Barnwell, 0. rf., last even
ing. Everything is quiet along the Port
Itoyal Railroad and no further trouble
is apprehended for the present at auy
rate.
It was reported yesterday morning
that the Federal soldiers at Rouse’s
bridge had been attacked by the negroes
and one man killed. This proved not to
be the case, however. About half past
one o’clock yesterday Captain Lord, U.
3. A., with twenty-seven men, reached
the city on a special train of the Port
Royal Railroad and left for Aiken ou
the accommodation train of the South
Caroliua Railroad. He reported all quiet
at EHentott and Rouse’s bridge. He
left six men at Eilenton.
A Bold Act.
Last Tnosday night a party of ne
groes set fire to the grist mill, saw mill
and gin house of Mr. Milledga T. Holly,
five miles from Aiken. They then fired
the bushes ou either Ride of the road
leading from Mr. Holly’s house to
bis mill, and secreted themselves
near by, expecting that when Mr. Holly
discovered that his buildings were burn
ing he would ride towards them,
atd thus fall into the ambush prepared
for him. Fortunately Mr. Holly was |
warned by a friendly negro of the de
signs of tiie fiends, and remained at
home. His grist mill and gin house
Were entirely destroyed, but the fire at
the saw mill went out without doing
any damage.
A Darina Attaok.
Last Wednesday night a most daring
attt nipt at murder aud robbery occurred
about five miles from Hamburg, on the
premises of Mr. Thos. W. McKie. Mr.
McKie had just fiuished supper when he
heard his hounds barking furiously at
something, apparently in his garden, j
He went out to investigate the matter,
and when a few steps from bis door j
someone fired upon his dogs. He re
turned to his house, got his gun, and
urged his dogs forward. He was then
fired into, and he returned the fire,
causing the parties who were attempt
ing to rob him to retreat. He then
went back, reloaded his gun, and
quietly awaited the results. Iu a
few moments the negroes (for it turn
ed out to be negroes) came up to his
front gate aud opened a rapid fire upon
his front door. Some of the balls pene
trated the dbor and fell at the feet of a
lady who was in the house. Mr. McKie
realizing the danger he was in, took his
family, consisting of his wife and five
small children, one a delicate infant,
and carried them to the edge of the
woods in rear of his dwelling. He then
went back and concealed himself under
the house. The negroes, numbering
eight or ten, came on,making the air red
with their curses and firing off their
pistols at the house. The negroes on
Mr. McKie’s place hearing the shooting,
hastened over to his assistance. One of
them being iu advance of his comrades,
was fired into by the attacking^party.—
He ran and thej supposing it was Mr.
McKie;' yelled’ out, “We’ve got him I”
One who be the leader and
who certainly syati'-very daring, drew a
small bench out from under-the house,
and placing it against the window of
Mr. McKie’s bed room, commenced
smashing in the sash. Mr. McKie
quietly slipped np to him and placing
lus gnn almost on the negro’s breast
fired aDd killed him instantly. One of
Mr. McKie’s negroes ran hastily to the
neighbors’ houses and gaye the alarm,
and in a short while the place was sur
rounded by whites and the honest ne
groes, but done of the villains
could he found. Trial Justice
Frank Arnim, acting coroner, held
an inquest over the body of the
dead negro and the jury returned a ver
dict that he was killed bv T. W. McKie
in self defense and for the protection of
his own life and the lives of his family.
Mr. McKie had just been in town that
morning and sold 13 bales of cotton,
and he thinks the-uegroes were after the
money. A special reporter of the Chron
icle and Sentinel visited the house
and saw where several halls had fallen
in Mrs. McKie’s bed room. The sash
wai a complete wreck. The negro was
armed wifii one of Smith & Wesson’s
improved pistols. It was found by his
body. Mrs. McKie is in delicate health,
and was forced by these brutes in humau
form to flee from her own home, taking
her helpless children with her into the
woods, expecting every second to be
murdered, and believing that he? hus
band had beeu killed. She ran several
miles iu the o dd flight air and suffered
countless agonies. Her feelings can be j
better imagined than described, touch
outrages as these are what cause the;
people of South Carolina to become j
reckless and determined to sell their j
lives as and arly gs possible in defense of j
their firesides. Mr. McKie acted in the
wliole matter with courage and nerve ,
almost uuequaleJ.
The negro killed was named Nelson ,
Hunter. He was smashing the glass in i
the window of Mr. McKie’s bed room
when tue latter, who was under tlte i
house, crept up to him, placed his gnu
almost to his .breast and fired. Hunter (
j fell dead and the other robbers fled. ;
’ Cook, the negro who went after a?sist
-1 3nee for Mr. McKie, is the father of j
James Cook, the marshal of Hamburg
who was killed in the Hamburg riot, i
He ran to each house in the neighbor- j
bbod and informed the people what was |
going on at Mr. Mc-Kie’s.

THE MISDIRECTION OF THE BILE.
The misdirection of the bile, a conse
quence which ensues when the liver is
inactive and the bowels torpid, produces
a number of bodily evils. The blood
becomes contaminated with the bilious
fluid, causing the skin and the whites of
the eyes to assume a yellowish tinge;
dyspepsia and nausea supervene, the
tongue becomes furred, the breath

Meekly Review of Jugusta Market.
Auousta. Ga., fttIDAT Aftkrnoos, I
September 22, 1876. (
General Resarka.
We aote this week a still inproviog tendency
in this market. The city jas been crowded
with country people durin? the week, and
trade in nearly all branchiae of Jmsiness has
been bri-k for tl<e season. Merchants antici
pate a lively time the c nua: Winter. Every
body ia cheerful and the talk of hard times
has ceased.
The provision market remans practically un
changed as compared with oir fast weekly re
port. Bacon ia firm, but tiers has been no
advance in quotations. Corn remains dull.
Wheat ia in good demand on Hie basis < f $1 26
for choice white. The stook of bacon is light,
and merchants do not seem td care to increase
it at present.
The receipts of cotton are already largely in
• excess of those of last yeu for the same
period. It is a matter of regiet that the ap
parent receipts do not show the actual number
of bales coming into the city. 'This, of course,
injure* the city to a certain" extent. We trust
that all differences will be reconciled. The
sales fox the week reach 4.658 oales, or an ag
gregate in money of #192,000.
There has been a better demand for securi
ties, aud some large sales of State and railroad
bonds have been made.
