It is hardly too much to say that the arrest and trial of hun dreds of Republicans, known to be guilty, to counterbalance the trial and conviction of hundreds of Democrats, believed to be innocent, would have thrown the State back into the anar chical condition existing prior to the universal recognition1 of the Hampton government, and would have, undone the work of the past two years, array- ing race against raco and class against class, to the advantage of tlie dema gogue and the mortal hurt of what is highest, truest and best in South Caro lina. This is averted. Thus are seen some of the advantages resulting from the "flaw in the inform ation" and consequent continuance of the cases. premises that morning All of the witnesses examined on the first trial were examined Tuesday, with out any material diflerence in tne evi dence given then, except MisaJteahgUa.

Wednesday, Miss Cottrell was re-call ed by the Commonwealth's attorney, and questioned in reference to her ex amination at the first trial. In reply to an inquiry by the prosecuting attorney whether or not she was asked on her examination at that trial iir regard to her relations with the prisoner, Miss Cottrell said that she was not asked di rectly if she was engaged to him. She stated that the counsel for the defence refrained from questioning her directly on that point on the trial, in accord ance with her own wishes expressed to them. John Nagle, a youth, who was em ployed in the shoe store, .where the of fensive remarks were alleged to have. been made to Miss Cottrell by the de ceased, testified that he was present on the last visit of that lady there whejv she came to have tlie shoes repaired. He did not observe that she manifested any anger towards Curtis. So far from it, she appeared pleased.
