Grant Recognizes Chamberlain aa
Governor and Orders a Dispo-sition
of Troops to Protect
Him from Violence.
Washington, Novemhe 27.—Grant writes
to Cameron that Chamberlain is now be-yond
controversy Governor of South Caro"
Una, and remains so until the new Governor
Is legally inaugurated, aud directs him to
sustain Chamberlain against domestic vlo-lence
until otherwise ordered. Forwarding
this to General Ruger, Cameron says, ad-vise
with Chamberlain and dispose of the
troops to the best advantage to carry out
President Grant’s orders. ^Chamberlain’s re-quest
to Grant for troops came late yester-day.
Grant called Sherman and other mili -
tary men to counsel, which continued at
the White House till nearly midnight.
Cameron replied to whether there is any-thing
startling. ‘‘Oh, no; nothing particu-lariy
startling, only Governor Chamberlain
has made a special request for a certain dis-position
of troops and orders have been
given.”
The President's advisors in conference
were Cameron, Sherman, Meigs, Barnard
and Vauvlict. The movement, though pos-slbly
suggested by Chamberlain for other
purposes, is intended to suppress turbu-lence.
Judy;* Buita Speak* oc&c Boldly.
New York, Nov 27.—A Uerald’s epeclnl

Bacon and others, that he has no idea of In-terferiug,
that he is here one week before
hjs court meets solely for the purpose of ex-amlnlug
Into business to come before him,
without any other object whatever.”
A Times’ Columbia dispatch says
“Enough Republicans will absent them-selves
togive the organization of the Lower
House to the Democrats.”
United States Judge Bonds writes: “The
Canvassing Board have never been advised
by me. No one has applied to the Federal
Circuit Court of this District; if any person
does so and there is a statute for it, he shall
haverellef; if there be no statute, he must
seek his remedy elsewhere.”

News or the Presidential Contest.
Columbus, S. C., Nov. 27.—On applies-tions
from writs of habeas corpus, the Board
of Btate Canvasser* were brought this a. m.
into the U. S Circuit Court, Judge Bond
aud Bryan presiding. The Bo ird were in
the custody of the sheriff of this county,
who, through counsel, asked for time to
make return to the applications for the
writs. The court signified that time would
be granted ami tbe persons be held in cus-tody
by the court pending the return of
applications, based on the ground that the
Board were discharging their duties ap-poiuting
Presidential Electors when the
Supreme Court Of the State Interfered. On
a subsequent motion 11 lc was granted till
Wednesday at 10 o’clock to make a return,
pending which the Boird were placed in
charge of a U. S. Marshal. The members
are now at large, but accompanied by a
deputy marshal.
It Is understood troops will be posted at
the State House when the Legislature meets
to organize.
New Orleans, Nov. 27.—Returning Board
met at 11 a. m., all members present and a
large crowd in the lobby. Visiting Repub-llcauswere
Messrs. Stroughton, Van Allen,
Keller and Parker. Democrats were Palmer,
Smith, Trumbull aud Juilan. Democratic
counsel were present duriug the proceedings.
After calling the Board to order President
Wells stated that the Board would decline
to. read any motions or protests. Demo-cratic
counsel objected to an^entry iu min-utes
In effect that, rule eight f Board had
been modified so far as to allow admission,
as rebutting evidence, of ex parte affidavits
in contested cases. Col. Zacliarie filed &
protest against the sudden modification of
the rule on the ground that the change had
been after the application of the counsel for
a modification had been refused and that
thus the Democratic Committee had lost the
opportunity of preparing the rebutting affl-davits,
where this privilege had beeu ac-corded
to Republicans. The protest was
not read or acted upon, but receive I and
laid on the table. Mr. McGlee, In counsel
for the Democratic candidates, filed a peti
tlon that the ballot boxes of east Baton
Rougs be sent for in order that ytally sheets
and statements of votes sealed up in four
boxes could be obtained and vote counted.
The documents were sealed up in the boxes
through Ignorance of law on tha part o
commissioners of election. The secretary
of the Board was Instructed on Saturday to
telegraph for the boxes, but failed to do so
on a plea of want of funds, and sufficient
moneytopayall expenses was deposited
with the Secretary by the Democratic coun-seJ,
and the mcessary message was sent.
There were Democratic majorities at the
polls where the above mistake was made,
and unless the tally sheets are procured the
vote will be thrown out. The Board there-after
went into executive session, and the
room was cleared to-day of all persona ex.
cept members and Col. Mills. In executive
session the Board examined the returns
from twelve parishes and thirteen wards of
Orleans Parish. These lelurns were exam-ined
and laid over for future action, there
being pretests and contests in each 'case.
The supervisor threw out the vote of one of
the polls of the seventeenth ward where was
a majority for TUdeu electors on the.ground
that the vote had not been counted and re-turned
within twenty-four hours after the
close ot the election. The Board adjourned
until 10 a. m. to-morrow.
Tallahasse, November 27.—The Canvass-
Ing Board met in the office of the Secretary
of State. Mr. McLea in the chair.
On the meeting of the Board a protest was
filed by the Republican electors against At-torney
General Cockes sitting as member
of the Board, on the ground that he had
virtually decided aud given a decision prior
to the assembling of the Board, In that he
telegraphed that the Democrats had carrieu
the State, and that the Republicans could
not cheat them out of it. Mr. Cockes
stated that he had sent the dispatch in reply
to a friend in Baltimore, who asked him his
opinion, and who furnished it to tbe newspa-pers.
He respectfully submitted that dis-patch,
and the opinion therein contained
did not disqualify him from sitting as a
member, The protest was entered, and the
Board proceenad with the regular business,
Mr. Csgill moved that Gov. Stearns, Gen-
Branon, coming with troops., be admitted to
the session, which was amended by adding
the name of Drew. The amendment was
accepted. The Hoard then went into pri-vate
session, aud adopted rules for Its gov-eminent.
The Board then agreed to admit
several gentlemen from abroad andsixloca*
politicians trom each side.
Columbia, S. C., November 27.—The fol-lowing,
signed by Senator Gordon, of
Georgia, Senator Johnson, of Virginia,
Wade Hampton, of South Carolina, and
numbers of State Senators,also Republicans
white and colored, and many others of the

the command of Gov. Chamberlain We
have uo objection to the presence of troops,
and will co-operate with them in preserving
peace, but we protest against the use of the
U. 8. army iu controling the organizing of
the Legislature, aud enforcing the leglsla*
tiou of Gov. Chamberlain, who has been
defeated by white and colored vote®. There
Is not the remotest danger of" a disturbance
by the Democrats. If there is any disturb-ance
ft will be at the instigation of Gov.
Chamberlain. Not one drop of blood has
been shed in any political disturbance, ex-cept
by Republicans. It is literally true
the Democrats received the greatest majori-ties
where U.'S. soldiers were stationed.
What pretenses there are for Gov. Cham-berlain’s
demand for troops to keep tne
peace, we refer for confirmation to the com-mander
of the U. 8. forces at this place and
elsewhere In the State.”

Jew us Ulinst’8 Letter.
POUND_ UNDER A GREAT STONE, SIXTY-FIVE
YEAHS AFTER HIS
CRUCIFIXION !
Found eighteen miles from Iconium,
fixty-fire years after our blessed Sav-iour’s
Crucifixion, transmitted from the
holy city by a converted Jew; faithful-ly
translated from the original Hebrew
copy, now in the possession of tbqLa-dy
Cuba’s family at Mesopotamia:—
This letter • was written by JESUS
CHRIST, and found under a great
stone, both round and large, at the
foot of the cross, eighteen miles from
Iconium, near a village called Mesopo-tamia:
upon that stone was written and
engraved,
“BLESSED IS HE’ THAT. SHALL
TURN ME'OVER.”
All people who saw if, prayed to God
earnestly, and desired he would make
known to them the meaning of thia
writing, that they might not attempt
in vain to turn it over. In the mean
time there came a little child, about
six or seven years old, and turned it
over without help, to the admiration
of all the people that stood by, and
under this stone was [ found a letter
written by JESUS CHRIST, which was
carried to the ciiy of Iconium, and
there published by a person belonging
to the lady Cuba, and on the letter was
written the commandments of JESUS
CHRIST, signed by the angel Gabriel,
twenty-eight years after our Saviour’s
birth.
“Whoever worketh on the Sabbath
day, shall be cursed; I command you
to go to Church, and keep the Lord’s
day holy, without doing any manner
of work. You shall not idly mis-jjend
your time on bedecking yourselves
with superfluities of costly apparel, and
vain dresses, for 1 have ordained it a
day of rest. 1 will have that day kept
holy, that your sins may be forgiven
you; you shall not break my command-meats,
but ol s rve and keep I hem, writ-ten
with my own hand, write them in
your hearts, and steadfastly observe
this was written with my own hand,
spoken by my own mouth. You shall
not only go to Church yourselves, hut
also your man servants and your maid
servants, and observe my words and
learn my commandments; you shall
finish labor every Saturday in the after-noon,
by six of lhe clock, at which
hour, the p;eparation for the Sabbath
begins. I advise you to fast five Fri-days
in every year, beginning with
Good Friday, and ft o; continue^ he foui
Fndays immediately following in rem-embrance
of the five bloody wounds
I received for all mankind. You shall
diligently and peaceably labor in your
respective vocations, whcreiu it hath
pleased God to call you. You shall love
one another with brotherly love, and
Cause them that are not b aptized to come
to Church and heare the holy Sacra-meDt,
viz: Baptism and the Lord’s Sup-per,
and be made members thereof;
in so doing I will give life and .many
blessings, and your land shall bring
forth abundance. I will give you many
blessings, comfort you in the greatest
temptations, and surely he that doeth
to the contrary, shall be curst and un
profitable. I will also send hardness
of heart upon them, till 1 have dea-troyed
tl^em, but especially upon bar
dened and impenitent unbelievers. He
that hath given to the poor, he shall
not be unprofitable. Remember to
keep holy the Sabbath day, for the
seventh day I have taken to myself;
and he that has a copy of this letter,
written with my own hand, and spoken
with my own mouth, and kesp it with-out
publishing it to others, shall not
prosper; but he that publisheth it to
Others, shall be blest of me, and though
his sins be in number as the stars in
the sky, and he that believes in this
shall be pardoned aoc if he disbelieves
in this writing and my command-men
s, I will send my plagues upon
men, uud consume both him and his
children, and his cattle, and whosever
shall have a copy ot this letter written
with my own hand, and keep it in their
houses, nothing shall hurt them, neith-er
pestilence, lightning nor thunder
shall do them any hurt; aDd if a wo-man
be with child and in labor, and a
copy of this letter be about her, and
she firmly put ber trust in me, she shall
safely be delivered of her birth. You
shall have no news of me, but by the
Hoiy Spirit till the day of Judgment.
All goodness and prosperity shall be iu
the house where a copy of this letter
shall be found.”
No Democratic Membor Wanted.
[From a Special New Orleans Dispatch to
the New York Herald published Nov. 21.]
t he generally assigned reason for
the uen eltction of a fifth member of
the Returning Board to fill Arroyo’s
vacancy, is the following: If an elec-tlon
was held they could hardly help
selecting a Democrat, who, as a mem-ber,
would bo entitled to be present at
the Board's secret session, and this
might interfere with devising the pro-gramme.
It is therefore preferred to
risk the uuconstitutionality of their
proceedings, unless they can find, as
the proceedings progress, a person
adapted to fill the peculiar position.
