use. OSCAR SMALLEY.
Newberry, S. C., Tuly 17th, 1879.
Messrs. Cofpock & Johnson •.
Dear Sirs—I have been using the Emerson & Fisher Buggy I bought from you
as roughly I suppose as any one could. I had a fast horse, drove him at full speed,
sometimes with two grown ladies and myself in the buggy, and it is to-day worth all
the money I paid for it. I say the Emerson, Fisher Buggies will do.
A. M. TEAGUE, farmer.
Tho favorable reputation the Carriages have made in localities where they have
been used for several years bv Liverymen, Physicians, Farmers and others re-

publican Successes.
The Wind-Up of the Democratic
Waterloo.
New York.
New York, Nov. 5, 2 a. m.—Ac-
cording 10 the latest returns it is
roughly estimated that New York
City gives Robinson in round num-
bers 10,000 plurality and Brooklyn
8,000 plurality over Cornell, but
Cornell has a plurality, as far as
heard from, in the state, outside of
these two cities, of 33,000 over Rob-
inson, which gives a net plurality of
15,000, and assures his election.
For lieutenant governor and the rest
of the state ticket, on which the
democrats were united, New York
City gives Potter, democrat, a ma-
jority of 38,000, and Brooklyn gives
him a mstj rity of 10,000, an aggre-
gate 11 ajority which the republican
gains in the state, as far as known,
can hardly overcome ; but the Trib-
une and Times claim that the re-
publicans have elected Raskins and
the rest of the state ticket by from
5,000 to 10,000 majority. There is
no dispute that the legislature is re-
publican by a decisive majority.
Brooklyn, Nov. 5.—The vote
this morning shows that the demo-
crats have elected their city ticket.
New York, Nov. 5.—The Times
still claims 40,000 to 50,000 plural-
ity for Cornell, and estimates the
senate at 24 republicans and iSdem-
ocrats, and the assembly at 92 re-
publicans and 36 democrats. The
Times also says: "It now seems
reasonable that the republicans have
elected their entire state ticket."
But this is doubtful, and the result
cannot be known until the returns
are all received and computed,
Kelly's total vote will not fall
short ot 70,000.
Mississippi.
Jackson, Nov. 5.—But fourteen
counties have been heard from. Of
'liese, eleven have clected straight
democratict tickcts, with a majority
of 6,500.
Hinds and Madison require official
count.
Iloltnes is considered to have gone
for the greenbackers, with the ex-
ception of senator.
Marshal county, considered the
strong-hold of greenbackism, elects
a full democratic ticket by a large
majority. The election passed off
quietly. A small vote was cast and
but little enthusiasm was expressed
in counties where the whites and
colored are about equally divided.
Columhus, Nov. 5.—Lowendes
county elects a full democratic
ticket. A very light vote was polled.
There was no opposition except tor
state senator.
Oxford, Nov. 5.—Lafayette coun-
ty gives a democratic majority of
250, The election passed off very
quietly.
Senatoba, Nov. 5.—Tate county
elects the greenback candidate lor
the legislature and all county officers
by majorities ranging between two
and four hundred.
Hernando, Nov. 5.—Miller, the
greenbacker, is elected sheriff of
DeSoto county over Bynum and
Rands, democrats. The balance of
the democratic ticket is thought to
be elected.
Canton, Nov. 5.—Madison elects
Graves to the senate, Downs, white,
of Garrett, and Libby, colored, all
independent, to the legislature.
Foot, democrat, is elected district at-
'torney. The balance of the demo-
cratic ticket is elected.
Vicksburg, Nov. 5.—The returns
of Warren county are not all in.
R. F. Buck is certainly elected
sheriff.
The state senator is still in doubt,
but indications are that J. S. Morris
is elected.
There were no party nominations
by either side.
Memphis, Nov. 5.—A telegram
from Hernando, DeSoto county,
Mississippi, says the election passed
off quietly yesterday, and there was
no contention by either party until
this mvrning, when it was found that
two ballot boxes were missing, and
others are thought to have been tam
pered with. One of the missing
boxes were burned and the ether
was found. The judges of the burnt
box made affidavit as to the vote
cast, they having been counted be-
fore, which was accepted.
J. P. Walker, democrat, and VV.
T. Nesbit, greenbacker, are elected
senator*. V. C. Watson, A. W.
Iluddleston and A. S. Myers, demo-
crats, are elected to the lower house.
The parties were divided nearly
equally.
The general impression now is
that the greenbackers will contest
the election, claiming foul play.
Virginia.
Richmond, Va., Nov. 6.—Re-
turns received to-day are rather
gloomy for the debt-payers, and at
their headquarters here a feeling of
despondency prevails. Some of the
leaders are ready to throw up the
sponge and acknowlede their defeat.
They claim to have thirty-nine mem-
bers certainly elected to the house so
far, with six others certain, but not
heard from, and five doubtful, thus
giving the rcadjusters forty certain,
with an equal chance at the doubtful
ones.
In the senate the debt-payers claim
sixteen certain, with eight doubtful,
leaving sixteen certain to the rcad-
justers, with a chance for the doubt-
ful one. The leading rcadjusters
here state that the returns so far con-
tinue favorable to them, and that al-
though they have had some losses
where they expected to win, they
have had more gains where they did
not look for them. They claim
twenty-five out of forty senators, and
fifty-eight out ot one hundred dele
gates. The current sets steadily in
favor of the readjusters, and indica-
tions are that they will certainly have
a majority in both houses.
Fredericksburg, Va., Nov. 5.—
Full returns received to-day confirm
the defeat of General Fitzhugh Lee
by a majority ot 600.
In the northern neck senatorial
district indications are very decided
of the defeat of Rev. W. Walker,
the eminent Methodist divine, lately
in charge ot one of the principal
churches in Baltimore, but since re-
turned to the profession of law, by
Col. S. M. Mayo, a readjustee
Maryland.
Baltimore, Nov. 5, 11 :2o a. m.
— Hamilton's, democrat, majority
for governor in this city is 11,102,
arid the balance of the state and city
ticket is about the same.
Returns from Aumbrel county
give the democrats a majority of
1,500.
Baltimore county gives 2,000 dem-
cratic majority for the state ticket and
1,000 for the county ticket.
Frederick county gives 300 repub-
lican majority.
Caroline county 700 democratic
majority.
Nothing further definite up to this
time.
Baltimore, Nov. 5.—Returns
from some of the counties have not
yet been received, but sufficient is
known to indicate a democratic ma-
jority of 17,000.
Baltimore, Nov. 5.—Tn the third
district of Anne Arundel county,
yesterday, a difficulty occurred be-
tween whites and blacks. John E.
Goss, white, was killed by a blud-
geon in the hands of a colored man
named Simmons. Simmons es-
caped.
New Jersey.
Elizabeth, N. J., Nov. 5.—Peter
Bennett, democrat is elected mayor
over Clark, republican, by 99s ma-
jority. The democrats elect four
freeholders with an average majority
of 464, making the board democrat-
ic. They also elect 5 out of S coun
cilmen, making the city council stand
10 democrats and 6 republicans.
The board ot education remains re-
publican.
Pennsylvania.
Philadelphia. Pa., Nov. 5.—Es-
timated and official returns from 51
counties out of 67 in this state give
Butler, republican, for state treas-
urer, 61,778; Barr, democrat, 14,-
Butler's majority continues to swell
with the receipt of official figures,
and the indications are that he will
have 53,000 majority.
Massachusetts.
Boston, Nov. 5.—The republic*n
vote, as compared with last year,
compiled with figures already given,
shows a falling off of 15,000.
Boston, Nov. 5.—The senate will
stand 31 republicans, 8 Butler demo
crats.

Fort Worth, Nov. 5.—The com-
mittee appointed by B<shop Mc-
Teyire, presiding officer of the
Northwest Texas annual conference
of the M. E. Church South, to in-
vestigate a charge preferred against
W. G. Veal, submitted the follow-
ing report late yesterday evening:

try W. G. Veal, a member of the
Northwest Texas conference of the
M. E. Church South, on the charge
of gross immorality, found and pre-
sented by a committee of prelimina-
ry investigation, consisting of W.
G. Connor, Samuel P. Wright and
S. S. Scett, beg leave to report that
after several days of patient and
prayerful examination of the evi-
dence brought before us, we do, ac-
cording to the law of our church, find
the accused guilty, and fix the pen-
alty at expulsion from the church.

Fire at Helena, Arkansas.
Memphis, Nov. 5.—A fire at
Helena, Arkansas, yesterday, de-
stroyed five buildings on Main street,
including the Odd Fellows' building,
where it originated. The loss re-
ported is as follows :
Jacks & Co., 011 building $4,000 ;
insurance, $9,000; on stock, $45,-
000; insurance, $26,000; Mayfield
& Co., loss, $5,000; fully insured ;
Sam Bender loses on his house
$3,000; insurance, $2.500;on stock.
$25,000; half insured, half saved.
T. L. Airey & Co., loss $3,000; in-
surance, $2,000. Mrs. Washer's

The Odd Fellows lost their regalia.
Arkansa s River Dry.
Little Rock, Ark , Nov, 5.—Ad-
vices from the Indian Territory re-
port the Arkansas river entirely dry
at Big Bend. This was never knoxfrn
to occur before. Corn crops are
very short in the Cherokee, Choc-
taw, Chickasaw, Seminole and
Creek nations, in which suffering in
consequence is anticipated.
The refusal of the o. a. to pardon
Toettel, the Denison murderer, will
excite utter astonishment and deep
amazement through the state. The
evidence against Toettel was hardly
stronger than that against Coward,
nor one-tenth as bad as that against
Fields. Abner Walker was a much
worse case and the testimony equally
strong. But Toettel is a poor devil
of a vagabond without money or
friends, both of which Walker had.
There is the difference. though both
deserve death.—Houston Telegram.
Mr. J. Summerfield returned Sun-
day evening from the Pan Handle,
bringing back with him the entire
surveying party. He and his men
left Sherman last April, and have
spent the entire summer in the field.
They have protracted thousands of
miles of surveys, and all got home
in good health. The recent work
done was the surveying of 64,000
acres of land for Goodnights'nanche,
011 Palo Duro canyon, on the line of
Armstrong and Brisco counties.
Also a stock ranche for Gunter and
Munson, embracing 30 miles fron-
tage on the Canadian river in Patter
county.— Courier.

The Ainorican Antiquarian.
An Illustrated Quarterly Journal de-
voted to early American history. Eth-
nology and Aichseology, edited by Rev.
S. D. Peet, Clinton, Wisconsin.. Pub-
lished by Jameson & Morse, 164 Clark
street Chicago, Illinois. Price $2 per
annum.
This magazine is devoted to a very in-
teresting subject. It is well know that
there are many evidences of-an ancient
occupation of this continent, by a people
whose history has always been enveloped
in great mystery. New facts are, howev-
er, constantly coming to light, which,
though strange and sometimes mysteri-
ous, are calculated to reveal something
of the prehistoric condition of America.
Travelers and explorers go to distant re-
gions of the east to exarrtine the ruins of
Nineveh and Babylon, and in these burn-
ed cities find many interesting confirma-
tions of history; others also traverse the
frozen region of the Arctic Sea, to dis-
cover the northwest passage; but at our
very doors there are the tokens of a buri-
ed past, wiiich deserves attention more
than these. It is the subject of Ameri-
can Antiquarian to so solicit facts and
direct enquiry that the obscure history of
our country shall be made known, and
the problem of man be ultimately solved.
The editor, Rev. S. D. Peet, who hae
devoted many years to this subject, and
the contributors, are all gentlemen who
have high rank in the scientific world.
It is one of the most readable magazines
published, and we are happy to commend
it as worth}' of support.
