VOLLME XI.-NUMBER 1774. CHARLESTON, FRIDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER I, 1871. GOSSIP FROM GOTHAM. BETTISCw OX THE ZLECTIOS'. tr _ A Raid of the Women on the Hallo t-Box -Thieves anil Forgers Running for Office-Tribulation About the Grand Duke-Despair af the First-class Citi? zens-Close of the Great Industrial Fair-Indiana Morton to Have the Last Say. [FROM OCR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] * NEW YORK, November 4. ' 8ome industrious gamblers are engaged nightly at an establishment on the corner of Broadway and Twenty-eighth street In selling pools on the election. There was an excited crowd of betters present last evening. "The first choice on the State ticket is a hundred . dollars." shouted a man in green spectacles who was mounted en a table. "Who will bid for it ?'* There was a dozen responses. The first bidder who caught the auctioneer's eye was allowed to name his man. He selected the Democratic candidate. 'How much is bid lor the second choice," (the Republican candidate) cried the auctioneer. Somebody in the corner said "sixty dollars." The bids were run up rapidly, and the bet was knocked down at ninety-five dollars. A large number of ptools were sold In the like manner, the pro Eonion of betting between the candidates elag the same. Pools were also sold on the most closely contested local contests, those for registrar and senator in the Seventh District Attracting the most business. This ls the most approved method of betting on elections in these later days. It was bor? rowed lrom the racing-track, where lt is rec? ognized as official. The winner takes the contents of the pool after the auctioneer has extracted a certain percentage for his trouble. The strong-minded women have resolved to assault the polls on Tuesday, and have taken -^S*WBP preliminary precaution to get themselves registered. Mrs. Victoria C. woodhull, the candidate of Demosthenes for the Presidency, and her handsome sister, Mrs. Tennie C. Clal lin, succeeded in finding a board of registra? tion officers willing to take their names. A Mrs. Mary Leland writes to the morning papers thit she appeared belore the registrars ' of the Nineteenth District ol the Sixteenth Ward, and, making known her demand, was re? ceived with great courtesy. The officials pro? ceeded to formally examine the Constitution of the United States, and being unable te find any clause prohibiting the registry of the names ot lemales, they accepted that of Mrs. Leland. She testifies that lue members ot the board were as polite and gentlemanly as those she is accustomed to meet in her parlor, and though she had been assured that that "ob? stacle in the shape of vulgarity would deter women from approaching the polls," she was glad to find "that the same respect shown to women by men at the church, the theatre, the railway train or even the street cars, is extend? ed to them in the halts of registration." and she concludes triumphantly: "I firmly believe j the men will welcome her at the polls." Mrs. Leland will undoubtedly test the courtesy of the ballot-box inspectors on Tuesday next, auoVfind to ber sorrow again that alter all man is rreally a brute. Mrs. Victoria Woodhull Demosthenes intends to take her grievance to the courts after her vote Is rejected. She DTO Kses to have an opinion lrom a New York Ige on the constitutionality of woman auf? trage. For the multitude of offices to be filled at this election many persons of more than doubtful reputation are running. Some suspected thieves and others who have gone through the ordeals of the courts and prisons are among them. It ls even charged against the pious Sentleman whose name heads the Republican tate ticket, that he rents his brown-stone mansions in the city for Improper purposes. One of tt- Reform candidates for Assembly was arrested yesterday on the charge of for? gery and taken to the Tombs. He had been trying to raise the wind by mortgaging hie .acrandfather's property-writing the old gen? tleman's name himself where lt was necessary to give the appearance ot validity to the docu? ments. He explains In a card this morning that the trouble all arose from a "misunder? standing on the part ot my grandfather as to ? the legal effect ol a power bf attorney." Yon observe how unsophisticated venerable grand? fathers with real estate eau be hereabouts. The non-arrival ot the Grand Duke bas rattier dulled tbe public interest in him. The first-class citizens who have been tumbung about on the waves off Sandy Hook, ana stretching their eager necks tn vain attempts to descry the coming fleet, are sold to be sick at heart and stomach with hope deferred. The prince's papa has ceased to Bend anxious tele? grams Inquiring if that frigate has arrived yet, and lt ls presumed that ne has abandoned himself to despair. In consequence of the State law which forbids the call:ng out of the militia, except In case of riot, for five days preceding an election, the committee of first class ck; zens "have been obliged to Issue a notification that if bis Highness arrives be? tween tbls and Tuesday no public reception will take place. It bas been arranged to land him incognito and whisk him off to Washing? ton to be presented to the President. Then be ft to be brought back here and concealed in the Brevoori House, the public being sup? posed to know nothing of his presence in the metropolis until the military reception can* take place. What other ridiculous things the first-class worshippers of royalty may be guilty of, the future must unpleasantly reveal. The great Industrial Fair at the Rink, which has been open for the past six weeks, closes to-night. That enormous building, the largest in New York, and probably In America, has been so filled with the products of the In S'nulty and Industry of American citizens, at even the crowds of visitors which have entered there have found difficulty in getting space enough to Inspect the articles. The fair this year has been the most successful of the series of forty held since the American Insti? tute was incorporated. Horace Greeley ls the head of the institution. At the opening this year, perhaps you will remember, walt. Whit? man lilted up bis voice and uttered another of his barbaric yawps. The exhibition is to be oloaed this evening with a yawp lrom another barbarian, Senator Morton, of Indiana, the champion Radical fabricator of tbe United States. This man ought to be a social outlaw. The depth of his mendacity cannot be fathom 0 ed. If he falsifies at the Rink to-night upon '^American Progress" as he does on tbe stump Mt the South and the Democratic party, he wir. be hissed off the stage. NYM. THE SMALL-POX IN THE QUAKER CITY.

Bloody Work-The Chinamen Killed, and their Quarters Plundered. According to all accounts the affair at Los Angelos was little better than a brutal massa? cre. The correspondent of the San Francisco Chronicle says : The tragedy of yesterday arose from an ill feeling of long standing, between two riva! Chinese companies. These parties bad a diffi? culty with one another on the previous day, and a preliminary examination was held in the aiternoon at one of the justice's courts, which was adjourned until the next morning. On re? turning to their quarters and Just as night set in, they resumed their quarrel and pistols were freely used; officers and citizens Imme? diately rushed to the scene to separate and ar? rest the combatants. Some ol the Chinese, however, turned upon their pursuers and fired their pistols at them, wounding one officer In the right shoulder, shooting a boy in the leg, and a citizen named Robert Thompson through the breast, from the effects of which he died within an hour and a half. They then sought refuge in their quarters. The block in which these Chinamen secreted themselves was surrounded by a mob, and none were permitted to leave. Shortly after the block? ade commenced, one Chinaman attempted to escape, and, with a hatchet in his band, determined to cut his way thrcugh the human band encircling the Chinese strong? hold. He was quickly captured, and the con? stables endeavored to cai ry him off to Jail, but the announcement ot the death of Thompson being made generally known, the mob be? came infuriated, and several attempt- were made to wrest the prisoner from the officers. When within about two hundred yards of the jail the crowd closed upon the officers, and. overpowering them, seized the Chinaman aud marched him up Temple street to the corner of New High street. Here the cross-beam of the sllding^door of a corral offered a conveni? ent gibber. A rope was Immediately procured, attached to the victim's neek, thrown over the cross-beam, and amid mad shouts of the mob be was hoisted up. This mob, consisting mainly of native Cali? fornians, returned at once to the scene, drunk with their fiendish work. It was not until ten o'clock that any real attempt was made to storm the strongholds ol the Chinese, whc had barricaded their doors. In the meantime sev? eral futile attempts to fire the block were made. At ten o'clock an entry was made into one of the houses and the Inmates, more dead than alive, were dragged out and hurried to the first hanging-place at hand. Four were suspended from the sides of a wagon. Six were hung from the awning of some dwell ir, ira on Los Angelos street-one was a mere boy bf eight or nine years of age. all of these were fearfully mangled before reaching the place of execution. Ropes were placed around their necks immediately upon being captured, and some of them were strangled before being hanged. Thieves made good use of their opportunity, breaking open every trunk tn the Chinese quarters, and taking everything ot value. Two or three dozen Chinamen took refuge in the city jail, where they n?w remain lu cus? tody. Hints of a repetiti a of last evening's pro? ceedings having beea thrown out, the old vigi? lance committee has been reorganized, and will act should such occur. The city ls lu the greatest state of excite? ment. It ls reported that about forty of the Chinese belonging lo the other company lett town during the time of the disturbance last evening. Only one of the parties who shot at the officers and citizens has been Identified among the dead. The other guilty ones have escaped, while the rest oi those hanged are supposed to be innocent.

A REPORTED OVER ISSUE OF $20,000,000 STATE BONDS. The Wa?y the Money Goes-Startling Revelations of the New York World -Governor Scott Rises to Explain What the Press Say about it. [SPECI AL TELEGRAM TO THE NEW3 ] NEW YORK, November 6. The alleged frauds In the treasurer's depart? ment of the State of South Carolina continues to cause much excitement. General John B. Dennis makes a lame attempt at denial that any frauds hare occurred, and promises a full statement In a few days. But as this gentle? man, with the Governor and treasurer, have published a card admitting the printing of twenty million and forty thousand of bonds, there is no doubt that the statement ol frauds, as published, are entirely true. NVM. [PROM THE ASSOCIATED PRK33 ] NEW YORK, November G. The World states that the entire State Gov? ernment of South Carolina is here, and that the American Bank Note Company printed twenty million dollars of State bonds for Mr. Kimpton, the financial agent of the State. It is said that Governor Scott admits that the bonds were printed, but denies that all were issued. He does not, however, state the amount actually issued. Kimpton, it is as? serted, brings a claim agaiust the State lor services and commissions amounting to four millions, and the other State officers have not dared to resist payment thereof, though much of it is for renewals which were credited. As to the new loans, the commissions, it is said, more than swallowed up the original loan. The expenses of the last Legislature were eight hundred thousand dollars, which have not been paid. The World concludes by staila* that Its lu formation ls from a source entitling lt to the highest credit. The persons giving it express their confident belief that a fraudulent Issue amounting to $20,016,000 of State bonds has been negotiated aud the money misapplied, and are convinced that if ic should prove that the State ls involved to that amount it will be irrevocably Insolvent. Oovernor Scott'? Statement-Ile Admita J the Printing, but Denies the Issue. J NEW YORK, November 5. r The following card ls published: To ifte Public: Many false representations and attempts hare been made and published against the credit of the State ol South Carolina. It is true that $20,204,000 of bonds have been print? ed, of which amount $2,000,000 have never been signed or Issued; nor were they printed with the intention to Increase the State debt, but are In possession of the State authorities; also, $3,500,000 of sterling bonds have been printed, but not Issued. $2,500,000 of registered stock are now lu the hands of the treasurer of the State, being the balance of $5,040,000 issued. The Legislature, from time to time, passed several acts for the issue of bonds ta pay the indebtedness ol the State. Subsequently lt passed au act for the conver? sion ot its securities. To provide for this, the above amount lu bonds was printed, which has given rise to many groundless misrepresenta? tions and gross fabrications. "B. E. SCOTT, Governor of South Carolina. NILES G. PARKES, Treasurer. Jxo. B. DENNIS, Chm/n of the Committee on State Accounts. THE OPINIONS OF THE NEW YORK PRESS. Moat of tbe New York papers, of Saturday, offer some explanation, in their money arti? cles, ol the "break" in South Carolina bonds. It will be noticed that Governor Scott promises that the January Interest shall be punctually paid : ? What the Tribune Says. In State bonds there has been a pretty fair trade. The chief activity, however, was in South Carolinas, new January and July bonds, which declined from 37 yesterday to 32j to? day, though later reaching in the street to 35 j. The late depression tn these bonds ls due par? tially to the large sales or bonds hypothecated on loan, and which the borrower was unable to lift. What the Herald Says. The Southern list was'generally dull and quiet. The new South Carolinas were excep? tionally active and weak, a sudden pressure of sales at the morning board carrying the price of the July issues down to 32j. Subse? quently the price recovered to 351. The Bales referred to were for the account of parties who had pledged the bonds as collaterals and could not redeem them, the owners being unable to change the place of hypothecation because of sensational rumors as to an enormous over Issue of bonds. What thc Times Says. At (he Stock Exchange there was a serious break in South Carolina bonds, following up the very weak market of yesterday. The price broke to 32 per cent, on the panic* report that an excessive issue of bonds had been made to meet the emergencies of the State, but later lu the day there was a recovery to 35ja35? per cent. What the Sun Says. There was quite a flurry of excitement this morning caused by a sharp decline In the South Carolina gold 6s State bonds, the Janu? ary and July issues having been the principal point ot bear attack, and nuder the influence of heavy sales the price was forced down to 32^, a decline of 4 per cent, as compared with yesterday's transad lons. A rumor of over? issue was freely circulated lu street circles, which caused quite a stampede among holders who had hypothecated the bonds at much higher figures, and whose margins had been absorbed. The State officials, as also the finance committee, are at present In this city, and the want of harmony In the mangement of the finances of that State has been lor some time well known in business circles. It ls the duty of these gentlemen to at once apprise the Investing public of the exact condition ot Its finances, and relieve holders of the suspi? cion that its securities rave been improperly employed for personal profit. What the Standard Says. In State bonds the feature was the "break" in South Carolinas, the price having dropped on a pressure of sales from 36$ to 32i for new, January and July issues. At first there was a report ot an over issue of bonds, and from official sources It was learned that certain parties were trying to damage the credit of the State. In the late dealings there was a recovery to 35.j. The April and October issues were quoted at the board at 3la33. What the Dally Bulletin Says. In Southern State securities new South Car? olinas have been the feature. In the morning these bonn's (January and July) sold down to 32j, but afterward reacted. The transactions, in these bonds now partake so much of a speculative charaeter, that lt is impossible to account for the fluctuations. Political affairs iu the Slate are, as it ls well known, In a very unsatisfactory condition, and it is thought this has been made a pretext tor speculative move? ments. One story we heard to-day was that Charleston parties had been forced to sell about $500,000, that it was known they would be forced to Bell, and that the price was broken down so as to get the bonds cheap. What the Evtning Post Says. IQ Southern State bonds the features at the beard were the new South Carolinas, which advanced to 38, after selling yesterday at 32$. The assurance ol the Governor that the State will continue to promptly pay Its Interest obli? gations, undoubtedly contributed to the up? ward reaction. The April and October bonds sold at 35. Governor Scott's Effort to Restore Con? fidence. Statements and reports having been made by Interested parties to the effect that it was doubtful whether the State of South Carolina would meet the interest on ?her public debt, due January 1, 1872, we deem lt proper to an? nounce to all whom it may concern that com? plete arrangements have been made for meet? ing said interest promptly, out of the income ot the State derived from taxes. Holders of South Carolina securities can be fully assured of the certain and punctual payment of inter? est whenever it falls due. B. K. SCOTT. Governor South Carolina. NILES G. PARKER, Treasurer South Carolina. New York, November 3,1871. WHERE AND HOW CHEAP WHITE LABOR if AT BE OBTAINED.
