C., ( • October 9,1876. ) Editor of Times: Proud old Palmet to State! the despot’s heel is indeed on thy shore. Thou art humbled in the dust. Thou hast suffered long and silently. Thy treasury has been robbed by the thieves now |in of lloe; thy people grievously and bur densomely taxed; obnoxious laws oppress thy people. But there is light ahead. The abominable acts and measures of the Radical State Government will soon be swept from the State. For eleven years, stimu lated by the vilest passions, we have seen the public officers of South Car olina sowing discord and dissensions among the people. Not one act of kindness marks their career. The only public blessiug that evor will be connected with their names will be that of their na tural death. That publio men so debased, so disgraced, so thievish, should so long control the State that gave to the world a Hampton, But ler, Calhoun, Rhett and Ker shaw, is a wonder to us, and cer tainly not in unison with polit ical philosophy—that a noble State should continue for eleven years so ruled. Here in South Car olina we have a State Government deliberately nursing and encourag ing barbarism, terrifying the whites of the State with the Federal soldiers who have been withdrawn from the Indian war to elevate the negro over the white. The Indians are left to perform the war dance over Custer’s bones and those of the noble heroes who fell on the plains with him, whilst their live comrades aro brought to arouse' and TeT TOffSiUftfS" vile passions of the negroes mit them to run riot over the Elites in oppressed South Carolina. Ohl what a spectacle! Can the Caucasian race, whethor they live in Massachusetts or the Palmetto State, contemplate with any other feeling save abhorrence the State govern ment, whose actions a*e thus at war with the law* of nations as well as at war with humanity and civiliza tion. These things are horrible to the people of South Carolina; but coming from a Democratic State, where all have their equal rights before the law, the order of things here does seem to us to fit only for hell itself. Wo hope and trust the hour of suffering will soon be over; that the end is nigh. If so, Hamp ton will triumph—an event we hope to join the good people, black and white, in celebrating after the No vember elections. With a similar hope burning in the bosom of every white man in the State, already trade is improving, the spirit of the peo ple is better, and happiness rests on the face of many in the bright pros pects of an honest State govern ment. It was our distinguished privilege to listen last week to the speech of the State standard bearer, of reform and honesty, General Hampton. He reviewed the political issues of the day; he showed where in the Radicals had stolen and where the Republicans have erred; that even the honest men of the Repub lican party would not do to trust, for they cannot reform the masses. Ho paid a passing tribute to the mothers and daughters of South Carolina in their effort to elect the present ticket. He asked the prayers of the ministers of God’s churches for success. He asked that the re formers, both white and black, to stand firm and poll their full strength. He showed them that or ganization was essential for success; that it required a combination of in dividual forces concentrated and applied to achieve party success and accomplish peace ful revolution at the ballot box. To have this there must be recog nized authority and cordial subordi nation. Every member of the Dem ocratic party cannot have office or say who shall run. Some must lead and others follow. The Democratic party is an- old organization and have always contended that it is the right and duty of a convention of the people to name the candidate. Where a convention has done this it is the duty of the party to cordially support the nominee. No Indepen dents, for those who are not for us, are against us. Let them come out oa the right side, show their alle giance to party or quit it. In con clusion he, Hampton, turned to the negroes who had patiently heard him through and said in these words: “I wish to tell the colored people hero as elsewhere, that as soon as THE DAILY TIMES. the power passes into the hands of the Democratic party here, which shall come to pass as surely ns the sun goes down on the 7th of Novem ber, they will havo equal protection; they will be recognized as the equals of every man in this Stato, before tho law and under the Constitution. They will be honestly dealt with, and I pledge myself and the gentlemen whose names appear as the nominees of the Democratic party of South Carolina, to the people of South Car olina, white and black, that when that administration couitJ into pow rr, there will bo no discrimination on account of color or party.” “Now, why should wo not all be together? What is there that sep arates us but this little band of plun derers, who <?ame down here and who stand botwevi the colored people and tho white p*. :?le, with one hand in the pocket of tho black man and the other in the pocket of the white man. Nothing in the world keeps us apart but that. Nothing but this band of vultures who camo here, not with the brave men of the Federal army, whom we fought, but came like birds of prey, following the ar my to plunder, the dead and the wounded. They camo here, and found that law had fled; that there was disorder, and that by arraying the black man against tho white, they could be put in power, and be able to rob all alike. And they havo done it. They know that as soon as there is an understanding between the two races as to what are the proper interests of both, they cannot stay hero, and hence it is that they poison the minds of our oolored peo ple. But tho time has come when their eyes will be open. I know it, becauso I tell you I have seen it. I have seen colored men enough en rolled in our ranks to give us this election, and we feel a deep and lasting obligation to them. W'e feel that they havo broken off party ties and shackles anil have come to the aid of honest government. We feel that we cannot thank them too much, and our whole party is pledged to pr&tect, and not only to protect, but reward them. “I know that many of you colored men have been led off into the Union League. You say you would like very much to come with the Democrats now, but cannot do it because you are bound by an oath. In the first plaeo, I tell you, that oath is an un lawful oath, and therefore not bind ing. But if you think your oath is binding, it is the simplest thing in the world to bo rid of the obligation —just take your name off the roll, _aay you are np longer a member of the league, ana then you will be free from nil obligation. There can be no trouble about that. I have known white men in this county who were members of tho league, and they have dorfo that very thing. You can do the same, and you not only can do it, but if you desire peace, happiness and prosperity ; if you want to see your rights thoroughly and fully pro tected; if you want to see us all living together harmoniously, and wuges increased ail over the country, you will do it. Without n moment’s hesitation you will withdraw your names from the league, whether you vote the Republican or the Detro cratlo ticket; because, I tell you, you are a worso slave while you nro a slave to the oath of that league; than when you were held in bondage by tho white men. Your minds are en slaved, you are made to vote like sheep driven to the slaughter. If you are freemen, you will say that you will not be bound by any unlawful oath, but will cast your votes as your consciences and judgments dictate. And that is the way we desire you to act. We don’t want you to be driven either into tho Republican or Demo cratic party, but to listen to what we have to say, and if you aro satisfied, come to us; if not satisfied, you are freemen, and will vote as you may choose.” General Hampton, in conclusion, paid a grateful tribute to the interest manifested by the ladies in the glori ous cause, calling upon them to unite to their earnest efforts of encourage ment fervent prayers to Heaven for success. He also appealed to the clergy to invoke the Divine assist ance in behalf of the cause; that God might help us in His own good time to obtain the blessings of peace and happiness, freedom and prosper ity. Then, South Carolina, once more glorious and erect In all her former glory, will say to all her chil dren, white and black, “I have room for all, come and receive a mother’s blessing!” He closed amidst the roar of can non, the shouts and applause of white and black voters; and if this one be a criterion, he will be the next Governor of South Carolina. God grant it, is the prayer of the people of the Stato; and if the mas ters, who own the negroes politically, would set them free, Hampton would carry the State by 20,000 majority. “B.” A Colored Klder Use# hi* Little Pistol In Church. Louisville, Oct. 11.—A Mount Ver non special says that Sam Burkett, colored, entered a church while drunk. Wm, Barnes, elder, asked him to leave. Burkett answered, “You and your church go to hell.” Barnes asked for a repetition of the words, and receiving them, shot Bur kett through the heart. Barnes es caped. Brunswick Returns (Thanks, Macon, Ga„ Oct. 11.— The Mayor of Brunswick telegraphs the Telegraph and Messenger: “Thanks to our gen erous friends throughout the Union. We announce that we think we have enough supplies and money to carry us through.” COLUMBUS, GA., THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 12, 1876. THE TURKISH SITUATION. London, Oot. 11.—A Reuter dis patch reports the Turkish advance on Montenegro checked. The Times, in its leading editorial of this morning, says if it is true that au armistico has been granted, there is still good hope for peace, and Turkey has plaeod herself right. Should Servia refuse tho armistice, she would forfeit all claim to consid eration. If this armistice is con cluded, there will be sufficient time for a patient and t horough considera tion, and time is of unonlculable value, for wur, and war on a gigantic soalo, will oertainly follow unless some schome for good government in the provinces of Turkey is guaran teed. All Armistice almost Curtain. PEACE PROBABLE. London, 11.—Reuter’s Constan tinople dispatch says: At an extra ordinary council yesterday, which decided to grant a six’months’ armis tice, strong opposition to any armis tice was at first expressed. Tho coun cil agreed that a six weeks’ armistice, as proposed .by tho Powers, might from its shortness seriously endanger Turkey in the improbable eveut of a failure of peaco. Tho council there fore decided the Porte should eom municato to the. Powerß tho condi tions on which it would consent to a six months’armistice, which, in its opinion, would havo the following advantages, namely : Enablo tho Porte to allay excitement amongst Musselmen, not expose the Porte to tho risk of having to incur postilence duriDg tho inclemont season; and afford an interval which would facil itate an understanding upon condi tions af peace and general reforms to be introduced. The ratification of the Porte’s acceptance of the armis tice in this senso to be made to the Ambassadors to-day. It is believed here that tho Porte’s conditions will be aecopted. Tho Financier, In a leading article, states very positively it has reason to bolievo the Porte’s acceptance of Derby’s peace proposals will be an nounced almost immediately. A (Reuter dispatch from Belgrade to-day says tho Servian Council of ministers to-day decided to accept a regular armistico as soon as proposed to them by Consuls of tho Great Powers. In this connection a Belgrade tel egram of yesterday says tho British, Russian, Austrian and French Con suls already have been instructed to advise Servia to support an armistice. The daily telegraph from Pesth re ported Prince Milan has ordered General Tchnayeff to suspend offen sive operations for tho present, THE LOSS OF THE SOUTHERN BELLE. MANY LIVES LOST. New Orleans, Oct. 11.—Among tho many lives lost on the Souttiern Belle, are Wm. Van Pheel, Mr. Dorse and Miss Fannio O’Conner and another lady of Baton Rouge; Mr. Franks of Port Hudson; Mr. Lingour and tho steward and his crew. It is supposed nearly all who wero sleeping in the after part of the boat were burned to death, after the ilro had once got fairly underway it was almost im possible to get to the bow —the only way of escape to. the shore. The cargo consisted of 500 to 800 bales cotton. The boat was valued at $45,- 000,insured for $30,000 in New Orleans companies. E. Herbert, pilot, held the boat against the bank until all who could escaped, then leaped from the pilot house, and was seriously injurod. TELEGRAPHIC SUMMARY.

New Yoke, Oct. 11.— The Tribune says, Indiana seems carried by the Republicans, though close. Harri son leads his ticket everywhere, and is probably elected. Holman, Dem., is defeated for Congress. Tho Ohio returns aro more definite, both par ties claiming tho State. The Repub licans have made gains in nearly all sections. The World says: Detailed roturns are lacking from Indiana. The indications invariubly are that the Democrats have carried tho State by 10,000 to 20,000. Tho Democrats fully hold their own in tho congres sional districts. Ohio shows heavy Demoeratio gains from tho cities,, will quite ovorcomo the narrow ma jority for Hayes last year, unless the rural Republican voto is much larger than expected. The State goes for the Democracy by 3,000 to 5,000. The Times : The Ohio Republicans have carried the State by at least 7,000, and at least 12 of the 20 Con gressmen. In Indiana Harrison is probably elected Governor, tho rest of the ticket probably defeated. Scattering roturns indicato that the Republicans have elected 8 of tho 13 Congressmen. Returns from West Virginia not sufficient to indicate the result. WEUXKMIAYS lIEPOItTN. Flrnt Diapntch. INDIANA. Indianapolis, Oct. 11.—Sixty towns and wards in 34 counties show Re publican majority of 66. Sumo towns in 1874, gave Democratic majority of 502; in 1872, Republican majority 12. 61 precincts show Democratic gain 459, Republican gain 1,496. onio. Columbus, Oot. 11.—Since the last report 56 precincts out of 86 In Hamil ton county considerably reduce the Republican gains. Counting theso and five wards from Cleveland, and Dayton complete, show total gains for Barnes of 12,039, Bell 11,271—Re publican net gain 765 over Hayes’ ma jority. McMahon, Democrat, re-elected in Third District. Probably Mat thews beats Banning, Democrat, in Third. Boynton, Republican, for Supreme Court thought to bo certain ly elected.

Cincinnati, Oct. 11.-Complete re turns from Hamilton county give Bell, Dem., for Secretary of State, 28,362, Barnes, Rep., 27,034; Fink, Dem., Judge Supreme Court, 27,934, Boynton, Rep., 28,102; Clough, Dem., Board of Public Works, 28,019, Evans, Rep., 27,451; Sayler, Dem., Congress, Ist district, 14,099, Force, Rep., 13,500; Banning, Dem., Con gress, 2d district, 14,113, Mutthows, Rep., 14,138. The Republicans elect the Sheriff, County Clerk, Recorder und Commissioner. The Democrats elect the balance of tho ticket. The Gazette charges that the voto of this county of 55,966 against 48,- 597 in 1875, is an evidence of fraud. The Commercial says tho most im portant single influence has been that of the Israelites, who have almost unanimously voted the Dem ocratic ticket, and may be credited with the result in the 2d district. It is understood that tho Repub lican Israelites have generally succumbed to the urgument that Cincinnati has put her capital in Southern railroads and must look out for southern trade. The Enquirer says tho result in Ohio is so close that nothing definite can be given ttiis morning. If tho Republicans have carried the State, their majority is not likely to reach beyond that of last year. The Gazette estimates the Repub lican majority in Ohio at from 5,000 to 8,000 and Indiana Republican by from 3,000 to 5,000. Holman, for Congress, is probably defeated. The Republicans claim a gain of perhaps 10, and certainly 8 Congress men in Ohio and Indiana. Columbus, 0., Oct. 11,-9:30 a. m.— Returns indicate tho election of Barnes, Republican, for Secretary of State by a small majority; Boynton, for Judge of Supreme Court, will have a much larger majority. Indianapolis, Oct. 11. Returns from 135 townships and wards in 46 counties gave a net Republican ma jority of 2,318. The same places in 1874 gave a net Republican majority of 538, and in 1872 a net Republican majority of 1,404. FOURTH DISPATCH. Indianapolis, Oct. 11, a. m.— Union county complete, gives a Republican majority of 236 ; Republican gain of 40. One hundred and thirty-four pre cincts heard from give a net Repub lican gain of 1,630. Corresponding gains in Stato would give Harrison, Rep., for Governor, a gain of 14,500, as compared with the voto of 1874. 11.15 a. m.— Returns from 164 town ships and wards in 50 counties give a net Republican majority of 1,862. The same places in 1874 gave a net Republican majority of 15, and in 1872, net Republican majority of 852. FIFTH DISPATCH. Cincinnati, Oct. 11.—The Demo crats claim a miscount in Banning and Matthews’ vote3, which would give Banning 95 majority, but this cannot be discovered in tables now at band. According to the returns now at hand, Matthews has five majority. Columbus, Oot. 11.—Further returns from the country show continued Republican gains, which still keep Barnos somewhat ahead of gains made by Bell in tho large cities. It now appears that if the samo rates aro kept up in tho remaining half of the country, tho Ropublicans will more than offset tho loss In Cuyahoga county, and make the Republican majority In the State about 7,000. sixth dispatch. Columbus, October 11.—John G. Thompson, Chairman of the Demo cratic State Committee, concedes the State to tho Republicans. The election of Matthews, Repub lican, for Congress over Banning in tho 2d district leaves the estimate of result in Congressional districts the same as given last night, namely, Republicans 12, Democrats B—a gain of live Republican Congressmen. Columbus, Oct. 11.—Tho summary of returns from Hamilton county show that Boynton, Republican can didate for Supreme Court Judge, runs ahead of Barnes nearly 900 votes, and carries the county by 161. Boynton also runs ahead of Barnes in Cuyahoga county 400 votes. Re publican majority in Cuyahoga county on Secretary of State is 3,227, on Supreme Court Judge 3,659. SEVENTH DISPATCH. Cincinnati, Oct. 11.—The Times’ Columbus special says Gov. Joel Parker, of New Jersey, who is in Co lumbus, concedes the State to tho Republicans by 4,000 majority. Tho Republican Executive Committee claim 5,000 majority for Barnes. EIGHTH DISPATCH BANNING ELECTED. Cincinnati, Oct. 11.—An error in the count of the 13th ward, giving a hundred more votes to the Repub licans than they wero entitled to, elects Banning, Democrat, to Con gress, and the entire county Demo cratic ticket, except Recorder and Commissioner. An error of 115 in favor of Mat thews is claimed in the 19th precinct, which, if allowed, dofoats Banning. Tho official count is required. night dispatches. (Indianapolis, Oct. 11. Returns from 249 townships and wltrds in 62 counties give a Republican majority of 4,196. The same in 1874 gave a Republican majority of 2.093 and in 1872 a Republican majority of 3,004. [Democratic majority in 1874 in the State, 17,252; in 1872,1,149.] Washington, Oct. 11.— Halloway, postmaster at Indianapolis, Morton’s biotlicT-in-law, telegraphs: “Wo have been losing heavily nil day. The changes arc against us.” Indianapolis, Oot. 11.—4; 30 p. m.— Roturns from 346 townships and wards in 70 counties give a Republi can majority of 1,702, The same places in 1871 gnvo tho Democrats a majority of 858. The same in 1872 gave tho Republicans a majority of 1,267. Indianapolis, Oct. ll.—Four hun dred towns and wards in 79 counties give a Republicau majority of 1,374. Thesarao places hi 1874 gave the Democrats 1,402. The samo in 1872 gave a net Republican majority of 1,256. ind Tana. vkuy am iiai iimi.. Indianapolis, Oct. 11.—The result on the Stato ticket is still in doubt, and both parties are confident. The official vote of almost the entire State will be required to determine tho result. Returns havo been ro coived from 220 townships and wards in 58 counties, which give a net Re publican majority of 9,319. Tho same places la 1874 gave a net Repub lican majority of 1,395, and in 1872 gave a net Republican majority of 2,322. WEST VIRGINIA. Wheeling, W. Va., Oct. 11.—The ticket voted for yesterday was a long one, and in most places the count was abandoned until this morning. The returns are very meagre, but far as received show Republican gains. Brooko county gives about its usual Democratic majority of 100. Taylor county, heretofore strongly Demo cratic, gives 300 Republican majority. Two townships in Wetzel county show Republican gains. Cameron township in Marshall county shows a Republican gain of 105 over tho vote of 1874. Three townships in Berkly county give 260 Democratic majority —a Democratic gain of 250. Mason county partial returns indicate about 150 Republican majority. Jefferson county gives about 800 Domocratic majority. Greenbrier county gives an Increased Democratic majority. Mineral county gives a heavy Demo cratic majority. Wood county gives about 250 Democratic majority. No returns havo boon received from Ohio county, but it is supposed to be carried by Goff, Rep., for Governor. These reports are from private sources, and official returns may en tirely change them. Tho adjacent townships in Ohio county show heavy Republican gains. IT IS CERTAINLY DEMOCRATIC. Wheeling, W. V., Oct. 11.—The State will go Democratic from 2,000 to 5,000 sure. The majority may reach 10,000. [Signed] E. M. Cracroft, Chairman Third Democratic Club. Wheeling, Oct. 11.—Returns are very meagre, but there seems no room to doubt that Wost Virginia has gone Domocratic. [Signed] A. A. Campbell, Chairman Republican State Commit tee. AUGUSTA CROP REPORT. Augusta, Ga., Oct. 11.—The Au gusta Exchange’s cotton crop report, basod on 26 ropllos from 17 counties, average date Sept. 30: Weather from Ist to 10th and in somo counties to 12th, dry and hot, causing general shedding of young top crop and rapid and somewhat premature opening of grown bolls. From 10th to 12th, somo heavy winds and rain storms were general in this section, blowing and beating some open, then injured the quality of what was open. There was frost in somo lo calities October Ist; no damage re ported to tho cotton pluut. The drouth in the early part of the month caused the young fruit to turn up. Tho storms during the middle of the month had an effect on the quality, but not on the quantity of the cyop. The damage suffered by the crop is mainly from rhsts and consequent shedding, and amounts probably to 15 or 25 per cent. No dainago from rot or worms, except on very few river bottom fields. Picking is progressing rapidly; fully three quarters of tho crop is open. A large number of extra hands employed at cash wages. Probably half tho cot ton is picked. The yield is reported about tho same as last year. The loss suffered by planters from Au gust 10th to Soptembor 10th was so great a Rproontage of their previous expectations that now many are in clined to under-estimato tho yield. In all probability, based upon tho most reliable information, this sec tion will make about ton per cent, more cotton this year than last. WESTERN union TELEOKAPH CO. New York, Oct. 11.—The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Western Uuion Telegraph Company was held to-day. Tho old board of directors was re-elected. President Orton presented his annual report, in which he statod the gross receipts of the year from all sources were $lO,- 034,983.66, and tho gross expenses $6,635,473.69, and net earnings $3,399,- 609.99 During the year tho company operated 73,532 miles of line and 7,072 offices. The number of messages transmitted were 18,- 729.567, at average tolls of 54 cents. The capital stock of the company is $41,073,401, of which the company owes $7,272,235. During the year average tolls havo been decreased 6 6-10 per cent. The number of tel egraphic money orders transmitted was 37,190. The Weather To-(lay. Washington, October 11.—For tho South Atlantic and Eastern Gulf States and Tennessee, rising barom eter, east to northwest winds, and brisk along the coast; cooler, clearer, partly cloudy weather will prevail, with heavy frosts from the interior of North Carolina to northern Mis sissippi. For Western Gulf States, rising barometer, cooler, east winds, clear or partly cloudy woathor, and probably followed in Texas by falling barometer. Reported Russian and German Alliance. The document purporting to be an alli ance offensive and defensive between Ger many and Russia, having especially the Eastern question in view, and said to be signed by Gortchakoff and Rismarck, although its authenticity is denied by all parties, is, nevertheless, the subject of much discussion in the European press, and is published in full by the newspapers of Ger many. Emil Girardin, the editor of La France, assures his readers that the docu ment is genuine, and invittes his unbeliev ing contemporaries to an inspection of the attestation, “A true copy—Adlerberg.” The Republique FranCaise, however, recalls to mind that Girardin in 1850 gave publicity to a forged message of the President of the Republic. The Cologne Gazette, while doubting the authenticity of the treaty, thinks there is some ground to believe that imeortant negotiations have been on foot between Bismarck and Gortchakoff, as it is not likely that Field Marshal Manteuffel has been making his frequent journeys be tween Varzin and Warsaw simply for his own amusement. ‘Something must be going on. In military and diplomatic cir cles of Berlin it is not questioned that the warlike utterances recently attributed to the Russian Czar are genuine. It is known that at Jugenheim [in Germany) Alexander II gave expression to similar threats, and that Prince Gortchakoff used still stronger language. True, Russia has for the last twenty years pursued a peaceful policy, whi 1 e seeming to be preparing for a strug gle; but perhaps Gortchakoff now sees the opportunity for which he has long waited and prepared, and may be ambitious to close his long public career with a success that will make his name illustrious; and one must admit that recent events have shaped themselves very favorably for Rus sia.” CUT THIS OUT.
