The president of BOI?V?M, l?en. Augustin

27th of November in a personal connie.,
which he provoked while under the in

them not inciiiitsl to yield, he npbraidetl
them in the most insultng language, but
finally was induced to retire.
Vv'nile the members were discussing the
b "iiavior of the IVesident, aa otTuer u.ntl a
few troopt-rs made their appi-anm.:** at thc

Morales, finding that Congress did not
dissolve, became enraged at even- one
near him. He thieatened to have the
Chief Minister shot, aud the Minister
took refuec :.t the United States Legation.
Putting the troops under arms, he then
proceeded to the Capitol and declured the
Legislatme at an end.
Un thc 28th th e. President was seen on
the sheets laboring under great exi itf
ineut. in the evening an anonymous
li tter was read to him, warning him tha:
his aides-de-camp intended malting bim a
prisoner. At this he became, furious, and
rushing out into the ante-chamber where
his aides-de-camp were, insulted and
struck them. His nephew, La Faye, beg
g^d bim tu desist. The nephew then
urew his revolver and lirea upon the
President several times, killing him. Du
ring all this time the people, remained
quiet, and Congress immediately elected
Bon Adolfo Battissau President of Bo
livia. .
PROGRESS OF THE PORT ROTAL RAIL
ROAD.-We learn from the Augusta
Chronicle and Sentinel, that work on the
Port Royal Railroad is progre-ssing rapid
ly, with every indication that the line
will be completed from Augusta to it*
tide-water terminus by the 2t)ih of Feb
ruar)'. Only about twenty-five miles of |
track remain to be laid, and this is being
pushed with all possible energy and de
spatch. All the piers and masonry, with
most of the superstructure ot the bridge
. ver the havannah River, at Sand Bar
Ferry, ha? been completed, the adjustment
of the itraw being the chief work yet to
be accomplished.

W. J. Whipper, the Secretary of the Com

pive them up. This is not a ?.uificieU;
explanation. The transactions ol' thc
commission, especially the sale of the
railroad assets of the State, demand a
thorough sifting. The ple.ithat "It watu't

with cotton, fodder, grain, and io:ton

Aid is confidently expected from the G?-or

Tlie nominations lasted for three good
hours, during which time the members
[.mk oeu.t>lon to air their eloquence in
?uppnrt 01 their favorite candid*'es
Stmator W. ?1. Joues, nf Georgeta n,
who i> ..enera! ly known hereabout* by
the MUIIbril]uel ?f Civil Rlehts June?,
from his uncompromising devotion to
thu doctrines of equal right*, 0 itained !

C ?-?ka. of OranovburK. This nomination
-v.?> cutuuada?ticiilly seconded by Seua
t ir Jervey, nf Charleston, and Jamison,
of Orang?bnrg.
Ellison, of Abbeville, nominated Gen.
s. McGowan, and urged hiM election on
tho ground that lie waa the choice of the
people of the Circuit, This nomination
w.ts earnestly and eloquently soconded
by Mr. Robertson, R Scotchman, from
ileaufort County, wiio made au able
speech in support of Gen McGowan, but
who weakened when it became apparent
that Cooke was elected, and changed his
v;>te in favor of the successful candidate.
Mr. Rost/m, of Newberry, who never
misses an opportunity of makings speech
and who sometimes makes a ven* good
?paech, nominated Mr. S. D. Good lett, of
Picken*, which nomination was second -
ud by tho Rey. W. M. Thomas, of Colle
ton.
Mr. John R. Cochrane made a vigorous
speech nominating Mr. J Scott Murray,
of Anderson.
Thia closed the nominations, and thc
Joint Assam hiv proceeded to ballot. Up
on the call of tho roll it became evident
that the frequent and vigorous applica
tions of tlie party lash had bad no very
great effect, for when the last name ou
the roll had been called the vote stood aa
follows: McGowan, 48; Cooke, 40; Mur
ray, 22 ; Whipper, 20 ; Goodie?, 6.
There waa of course no choice, and bad
another ballot been held it ia probable
that General McGowan would have beeu
elected. But the men who had been cry
ing Republicansoloudly were too shrewd
to permit a second ballot to bo held. A
member arose in his ?eat and chanced
his vote from Whipper to Cooke. This
was enough to turn the tide towards that
distinguished gentleman, aud in lesa
time than it takes to describe it, there
was a general turning over from Whip
?er to Cooke, and from Murray to Cooke,
n fact everything turned to Cooke, and
from the yells and shouts and noises, one
would have imagined t"??u.tw. nn--0 h ad
been converted Tnto a mass meeting of
scullions and pot boys.
In all the dreadful melee that ensued,
the President kept up a vigorous appli
cation of bis gavel to his desk, and a
glance at the face of that ofticer did con
vey to your correspondent's mind the
impression that he would like extremely
well to have applied the Instrument to
tho craniums of the noisiest of the crowd.
Still the changing of the votes continued,
and Mr. Cooke if he was present, must
have been extremely astonished to lind
himself elevated to a popularity that ri
valed that of Old John Brown. Member
after member changed to Cisike. The
color of Whipper, the Republicanism of
Murray, and the legal talents of Goodlet!
sank into utter oblivion, and were hastily
thrown aside for the more favored Cooke.
When thc ballot waa counted it was
found that Mr. Cooke had received 86
votes-69 being necessary to a choice;
Gen. McGowan, 43; Goodie? 4; Whip
per 2, and Murray 2.
Mr. Cooke wa* therefoi e declared elect
ed.
The Joint Assembly then dissolved.
On the 15th, in the House, the Bill
providing for thu extension of time for
the payment of taxes for the fiscal year
commencing Nov., 1872, was ratified. Thia
Bill leave? itin the discretion of the Gov
ernor and Attorney-General to extend the

in the House on tho 13th, by Mr. Paris
Simkius:

We hope Si mk his will press his Bill

THE ADVERTISER.
Edeeueld- 8. C., Jan. 23, 1873.
Gov. Muses' FI rut Message.
To-day we publish, almost entire, the
first Annual Message of Gov. Moses
It is enormously long, and, upon the
whole, exceedingly interesting. In fact
lt is a very good Message-good as re
gards its information, good as reg irds lt
rcoomnundations; and bettor than might
be expected as regards Its spirit, lu the
! preparation of thin document the Gover
nor ha?, evinced, we are bound to say,
most decided industry ano determina
tion. He is a mau cf gay and festive
temperament, but nevertheless he munt
have studied hard-or some one else for
him-to acquire, compile and repro
duce the vast amount of valuable and
appropri?t o information contained in this
Message. As to Mr. Moses' touches hero
and there of Republican rhapsody ; and
his panting*., and gushing*, and explo
sions, after universal freedom and broth
erhood ; and his pious felicitations upou
the fact of there being not a single slave
within the borders of the United States ;
all this is DO more than might have been
expected from him. For has not his
t.iking-up with all this sort ofthing, giv
en him magnificent place and inagnifi
cent pelf ? As fort?n- emancipation of
the uegroes, ino.-t of us will not jump
up to the heavens with joy over the fact
until we are paid for them.
But read the Message. Every ono who
reads it attentively will bo instructed
and enlighten ?si.
The chapter upon the " Fence Laws"
an important ?mc-we reserve for next
week.
The Last of thc Great English Nov.
cllste.
First, Thackeray died, the youngest
of the three. And then, Dickens. And
now, old Bulwer-aged 87. Old Bulwer
iUMIU uuiircr 1 J\ lion, . .v.. ?iw II. ? . j?
eratic) who wrote "The Disowned," and
" Pelham," sud " Eugene Aram" and
"Nightand Morning" mid "The Last
Days of Pompeii," and a dozen other
novels, the most beautiful, the most ro
ma nt ic, tho most passionate, the most ele
gant ever written. In his old age, how
ever, ho turned his pen into a new chan
nel, and wrote novels philosophical, psy
chological and clairvoyante-all powerful
and masterly. And like tho other two,
he lived badly with his wife-very badly.
And she herself (a Miss Wheeler) wrote
an able novel in which she held him up
to the scorn of the world. Mrs. Thacke
ray jumped iuto the sea and drowned
herself. Mrs. Dickens was separated
from her husband in after life. And La
dy Bulwer kicked out of the traces al
most in the beginning.
Bulwer leaves a son, who, under the
name of " Owen Meredith," has achieved
lasting fame as a poet. His " Lucille"
and " At the Opera" do grand honor to
his father's name and fame. He is now
Secretary of Legation to thc British Em
bassy in Paris. With Bulwer, tho old
set is gone. It is now George Eliot, and
Charles Reade, and Wilkie Collins, and
Ouida ; and, to come down a step lower,
Yates, and the Trollope*, and the Brad
dons, and the Woods, and the Brough
tons.
The Greatest Ac tur Perhaps ul' the
Day.
Joe Jefferson is to play Rip Van Win
kle in Augusta on Thursday and Friday
evenings next. Here is a chance which
most people will not have again. Jef
ferson, like thc Booths and thu Wallacks,
is of high old English dramatic stock.
His lathers before him were great ac
tors. And ho himself is considered by
very many people thc greatest actor of
the day. He plays only in comedy, and
never struts or rages ; but-uorJiing so
wonderful, HO beautiful, so funny, so
touching, was ever soon.
The Judgeship.
Tho result of the election for Judge of
the Eighth Circuit, yesterday, (says the
South Carolinian,) was that Mr. T. H.
Cooke, of Orungeburg, was made Judge.
Mr. Cooke is a Republican. Wo have
never hoard anything against him its H
gentleman of integrity and character,
and presume that he will make a fair
Judge. Our preference was for Geu.
McGowan. We have nothing, however,
to growl about in his defeat. Tho party
in power has donbtless lost as much by
their failure to elect Gen. McGowan, as
we have. He made a square, openly,
manly and uncompromising canvass,
and bas nothing to regret and nothing to
be ashamed of,

Mrs. Sherman and Mrs. Wharton. '
These'are the two American poisoners
who have caused the bloted of the whole
civilized world to run cold. And day
by day, still, the public journals are fill,
ed wit!: the details and recitals of their
crimes. Mrs. Lydia Sherman is a cold,
canting, puritanical woman, born in New
Jersey but brod np in New England
fashion. She has just been tried, found
guilty of murder in the second degree,
and sentenced to imprisonment for life
in the Connecticut Pjenitentiary. Where
npon she makes a lengthy confession,
owning that she has poisoned two hus
bands, three of her own children, and
three step-children-eight in all. And
yet she is allowed to live ! She is forty
eight or nine years old, and devotedly
pion*-a Methodist.
Mrs. Wharton, unlike Mrs. Sherman, ,
is not of tho middle class or meanly ed
ucated. She is a Baltimore lady (born
in Philadelphia) of the most aristocratic
class and the highest fashion. Sho is
highly cultivated, and exceedingly soft, j
polished and insinuating. Shewns clear
ed a year ago of thc charge of poisoning
Genl. Kctchum ; and now she is on lier
trial, at Annapolis, for the poisoning of
Mr. Eugene Van Ness. Tim evidence of
circumstances is terribly against her,
and the world-thc world of Baltimore
particularly-has no longer any doubt
of her guilt She poisoned tho men bo
cause she owed them money. Mrs.
Sherman poisoned her people because
they troubled her. Mrs. Wharton is
ulso devotedly pious-an Episcopal hui.
It is a dangerous thing in these days,
at tho North, to be troublesome to wo
mon, or to be their creditors.
In the Cause of Religion.

bers of the Alliance is to bc held in Feb
ruary to lnukearratigeinentsfor the Con

its programme uiay bo expected. Thc
outline of the contemplated proceedings
has already been published, and covers
almost all the questions now agitating
the Christian world, from " Rationalism
and Pantheism" aud thc "Harmony ol
Science and Revelation" down to " Per
sonal Religion," " Sunday Schools," and
the "Old Catholic Movement." This
Conference will consist of about four
hundred members, and will comprise
many of the best men of all Protestant
denominations-De Presseuce, of France;
You Tischendorf, of Germany ; Plimp
ton and Guthrie of England; Blaikic of
Scotland ; and others of great power and
fame.
And while tho Protestant Evangelical
Alliance makes ready to meet in Ameri

Chancellor, is obliged to resign his ollice
and go into retirement on account of his
unbridled persecution of tho Hollian
Catholic Church in Germany. Churches
are more powerful than thrones.
A New Cotton Tax Bill
WASHINGTON, January 19.-Nearly all
the members nf Congress present in Wash
ington from the Cotton .States, at a con
ference last evening, agreed on a new bill
to rel'nnd the cotton tax, which they will
press on Congress this session, instead ol
tb? bill hitherto introduced by McKee, ol
Mississippi. The provisions of thc la Her
are materially changed, so as to carefully
look after the interests of the planters and
freedmen, in securing to them absolutely
the return of cotton tix they have paid.
WASHINGTON, January 20.-The bill
for the refunding of the cotton tax, as
agreed upon by the members of the House
from the cotton growing States, in their
melting on Saturday last, amends the
bill now pending before thc Committee on
Ways and Means by declaring in thc iirsl
section that restitution of the tax shall be
made to the party who actually paid the
tax, whether paid by himself or ayent,
attorney cr lactor, and adding to tht
fourth section a proviso that all entries,
receipts or other efficient testimony, shall
enure solely to the benefit of thc produ
cer, unless it shall affirmatively appear
that some other party paid said tax, and
ha? not been repaid thc same. .
The bill, ns above amended, was intro
duced this morning by Mr. Pierce, of
Mississippi, and referred to the Commit
tee on Ways and Means. .
