complain began onibe day before the lection,
lit October last, with .the ' whipping of a negro
Judge of _Election, in order to prevent him from
being present at,the polling 'pace to , which ho
was assigned. 'there was however no interfe-,
rencetvith the voting in Laurens Contty, as a'
detachment of United States troops WllB 'station
ed there. On tlo, Jay atter,eleetien the eoldiers
were withdrawn, and, before they were out of
hearing, the ICu Klux showed themselves. A
constable, who had a warrant , for the arrest of
two men, was attaolted near.tho - cuurt house, and
retreated for protection to the office of a JUI3*
Gee, drawing his pistol at the saute time. Juad
as ho was entering thedenr, a Nutt wits fired into'
the building, and, ast.if this wits, the signet agreed
upon, a line of nictOtruted with rifles ' appeared
on the square and commenced tiring. Then, sep
arating Into squads of two or three, they -scoured;
the country around, and shot down in cold blood
eleven of the prominent leaders of the Repubil.
,Fans, many of whom were assuesimited with Out
warning. Among the :victims of this outrage
, were the Judge of Probate for the county and a
member of the Stete Legislature. Tho troops
were immediately seta back, rind while ' they re
mained the county was comparatiVely - quiet.=
Since their withdrawal, many persons have been
whipped and otherwise shamefully abused, The
troops:arrellted several men knotin to have been
engaged in-the Laurens affair, and they were ta
ken to Coluula There they were immediately
released' on i tits of habeas corpus by Judge
Vernon, who has since heen impeached by the
Legislature, but resigned befare his trial began.
" The delegation say that the Men , who are
committing these depredations are ex-Contiedo

neither tle militia nor the civil authorities aro .

consists Of negroes, who know nothing about
tactics and/t he use of arms, while the lii Klux
ill , l well d

all resigned, as it has become unsafe for them to
retain their commissions. The civil authorities
aro powerless, as no juries, not even (bean com

" The Committee bn Reconstruction have made
an elaborate report, through Oen. Butter, In sup

izens against Ku Klux outrages, Ice. The report
declares the committee to be convinced that so.
era Rebel organizations exist in the Southern
States, overriding the laws, and putting in -peril
the rights and lives of loyal persons. 'they also
believe that oppression exists on the pert of the
landholders of the South as against the.lamiless ;

Editor Agit«tor :--- , AR Lilwrty town—
ship appears to he in a 1."! - ontintil state of exci te
milt t, I think it no duorephan right that -a por
tion of the enure I. jai l' ehould be
transmitted to Hour -ooltatnne ; or rather an ac
count of it. ..In the first', place, the citizens of
Elbert I
and the eurroanding country were thrown
I.
into a taco of considerable excitement by large
placers s Tog posted up in conspicuous_ places,
stating th t the siticens . t this portion of the
bounty should turn cut en made Mid nieet at a
certain place and certain time, f• r the purpose of
testing the feeling of the pcapto in , regarl to a
division of .ne county. The reeult of that meet
ing has already been published in year columns.
Next in order comes similar looking notices,
warning the people to assemble together, for the
purpose of giving \ the". right of way" for a rail
road project. I atn unable to state at present
where or what direction ale railroad in question
is to be laid, as there is'aeliverxity of opinion in
regard to it. The third cau ‘ se of excitement was
a huge fight between a ,eitirA Of this township
and a former,resident, tut lylio‘i \ ;; tit present hol
ding forth at Elmira. It appt.are there was a
lawsuit pending between the tw.)",belligerents,
and resulted in the defeat of the Eltni‘te, contest-
ant; whereupon followoi sotunvery,„harsh words.
A bystander, who was a witness to the fracas,
sagely remarked that be should judge that Catola
word that passed betwcen them weighed at le* ,
twelve pounds. .After prefacing their skirmish
with a few such heavy words, the Elmira party,
in order to give emphasis to some of his heavy
words, proceeded to accompany them with ges
tures which smattered considerably of noie snub
bing ; at least that is the way the Liberty citizen
construed it ; and he straightway (as a witness
testified) put in a 280 pound blow; which caused
the Elmira tna4 to nearly luso his equilibritrt.—
Then ensued a scuffle, which resulted in a good
deal of hair being shed, but no loud. Although
the Elmira party had proved h i 'lusell to be the
weaker party at law, when it came to =ureic, he
soon placed his oppolPent hors du, combat.
Everything has now resumed a peaoeful atti
tudo, and we still remain peacefully, yours;

On the 25th of January last , a wager wets made
far $.510 a side between W. U. Scott • and Mr. B.
Trantmktn, (whodias been known in tho wagcras ,
, Bendorson,) ' that 'the fatter could' net eat one
prittridge each Mot/till,. between the hours of
nine' and ten o'hlock . , for thirty •succespive days.,
The difileulty," in performing this gattrownic
feat,: Whiih' tit first thotight lOolied" too easy t 6 bei
seriously considered,. it, ati wo explained. some
days:since, in the feat :that though a singla• par
ttidge is 'very good eating, it becomes a most re
pulsive article•of' food when' 're'p'eated daily for
any iongthkd time. In Europe it is , a•somowbat ,
common : wager to bet against the performance , of
pigeon eating of this kind; and some dye or six
years ago 'a narrative written by a Frenchinau of
his physical sufferings-z-the nausea, fever and
prostration—endured in undertaking the expert
meat, attracted considerable, atteutiOn from tho
medic:al frate'rnitY—Day.
,
Premising that the, partridges alluded,
to are tbocommon quail, Items, of this
paper, ,wboxe fighting weight is „112

with,great pleasure for,, say $2OO or $3OO

amateur, if somebody will furnish the
birds—an extra bird to be provided -for

Our ofivn . S7eirs Of peace and unprece=
dented PrOsperity are rather tame in
the rehearsal, though quite'satisfactOry
to ourselves. But our ; bitter days
. of
strife; the times that triad - us to the ut
most; the years in which the beat cul
:tura of payopp calmly depidea that we
must go to the wall,; that self govern
ment had been fairly tried awl found
wanting ; that the equality of man was
a contemptible- catchword for dema
gogues; •and that the aggregated brain
of the civilized world saw clearly we
were beaten, and fighting i a sanely
against hope, agailiat all sense, against
all chance .of success; and that this
fratricidal war ought 'to cease, by for
eign intervention, if not otherwise,—
ah, we were making /deo:Ware then, as
well as _
Theylipassed, those days of fearful
trial,—and 'We mime out, bruised and
bleeding, but with recuperative powers
unimpaired ;' and hardly had we wash
ed the blood of the battle field from our
hands,'When the marvel-loving 'world
had a new sensation ; Prussia and Aus , =
tria were locked
. in a sharp, d e a d l y
struggle. It was a short one ; there
was not so much .territory to be gone
over and uonquered as with , us. Men
were-plenty—end handy to get at; they
-,---,_
meant husiness ; and' they butchered
each other ata most satisfactory rate.—
It was too. Sharp' to last ;- and . Prussia
having-imPosed her own terms, main
ly, perice-soon.!followed. But' Burope
and America .*ere ristenished at the
sudden,' decisive, success of the 'Prus
sians. 'Men' tried :Co explain . it, by tay
irig, "needle gun." , ) The, explanation
was not satisfactory.". The, needle gun
Was rather .effective, but . there was a
shrewil suspicion of men at the breech
end og it, in some minds ;ga suspicion
not shared by Louis Napoleon, when
he made war on Prussia . for—well, we
,
never;lcold understand , z4lhat' for, very
elearo. Ent he made War . : and the'
wiseries of the world are more aston
-1 ishe than ever at the result. There
seeni o
s to be a suddenlyjrakened con-'
victipn that,' as against Prussia, no 'na
-1 lionlis safe within easy reaoh of that
poWer. The conviction is sound. Be
yond All doubt, Prussia is the most pow
erful 'nation in a military point of
view Lon the face of the earth. And
her effectiveness in the field does not
; • needle .
rest on the edle gun. She. would be
about as strong, probably, if her infan
try earried , the old Harper's Ferry mus
ket. — She is a nation of soldiers ; no
braver, i ndividually, than Frenchmen
or A.meriians, but trained to a degree
of perffaion in wholesale slaughter,
that makes her ' an unsafe neighbor. '
As we write, news conies to us tha l t
peace is a settled thing between Prussia
and France. The terms are hard on
the latter nation ; but Prussia is in a
position to dictate terms ; and they can
not be so hard as to make a continua
tion of the war desirable. We do not
and shall not' believe the peace tele
grams until they are past all doubt.—
We hope the peace news may be true,
but we cannot fOrget the hundred days
and the inmp-post horiors of the reign
of terror, or the 'fierce, half wild ele
ment that prowls about the streets of
Paris in a Atate of semi-starvation. It
is an element prolific of more than mis
chief, and we shall not be surprised to
hear that the German troops have been
attacked in their march through the

France is our oldest ally : she was our
best friend in our struggle for indepen
dence; but she was certainly the ag
gressor in the present war ; and her rec
ord for the past thousand years commits
her to the policy of war for conquest.—
She can hardly complain at losing some
of her territory in agame she has play
ed so extensively and won so largely at.
And her only policy now is peace :
Peace on the best terms' she can get—
but peace, at any price. ' She' an make
no head against Germany : every strug
gle is a turf disaster. We

intersects the Carson track - of travel,
he visited the tent of a family •consis
ting of an elderly couple and one child,
a daughter of fourteen - or fifteen. The
old lady was sitting on a pile of blan
kets under the canvass, encouraging a
most determind attaek of the "sulks,"
while the ;nasoullne- head of affairs
had planted himself on the wooden
tongue, and.- was 'sucking his pipe as
though he expected to remain there
forever. 1.
A. single glance ; developed the diffi
culty, in thatklittle train of one wagon
and three persons, and than bad at
tained a,point of quiet, desperation be
yond the reach ,of peaceful adjustment.
Three days before',, they , had pitched
their tent at the forks of the .road, and
as they couldinot agree Upon- the route
by which to enter California, there they
had remained: The husband had ex
pressed a preference for the Carson
road, and the wife for the ,Lesseni, and
neither would yield. The wife deClared
she would remain all- winter ; the hus
band said he would be pleased to pro
long the sojourn through' the summer.

On the, morning oft the , lanai' day
the wife broke a sullen silence of thirty
six hours by - proposingn division of the
property, which consisted of two yoke
of oxen; one wagon,'camp furniture, At
small quanty of provisions and to dol
lars in silver. The proposal was-accep
ted, and 'forthwith the "plunder" was
divided, leaving the wagon - te the old
man and the daughter to the mother.
The-latter exchanged with a neighbor
ing train the cattle belonging to her
for a pony' and pack-saddle, and put
ting her daughter and her portion of
the divided spoils upon the animal, she
resolutely started across the 'desert by
the Lessen trail, while the-old man si

other route. , _ - • 1.4! .r..: ~.,

With stubborness so 'sublime. Arri
ving in Saoramento•with her daughter,
the old lady readily found employment
—for women were less plentiful than
now—and subsequently opened a board:
ing-house, and in a - fetv years amassed
a handsome fortune. Two years ago
she went to San Francisco, and the
daughter, whose education had not been
neglected, was married to 'one of the
most substantial citizens.
And what had become of the old
man ? The wife had not seen or heard
of him since they parted on the Hum

er for years, and she had sometimes re
proached herself for the wilfulness
which separated them after so long a
pilgrimage together. But he was not
dead. We cannot trace his course in
California however. 411 that we knob;
of him is, that foittine had not ;nulled

toiled without any hope.. Finally,
feeling unable longer to wield ' the pick

in the hope, of obtaining employment
better adapted to his . wasted ' trength.
