peel TION IN SOUTH CAROLINA. Savage Barbarities Inflicted on the Negroes. Whippings and Revolting; Mutilations. Rrowds of Terror-Stricken Wretches Asxious ‘to Relate Their Sufferings. bd WasHInoron, July 29, 1871. ‘The'Svb Ku Klux Committee, consisting of Sena- tor Scott and Representatives Stevenson and Van ‘Tramp, reached Washington to-day, returning from sojourn of foar weeks in various parts of Sontn ‘Corolina, where ‘they have becn investigating Ku Kiex outrages on the spots where they occurred. ‘The statements derived from the party, as published -m the Evening Siar, are as follows:— ‘They first visited the capitah—Uolumbia, More ‘han a hunared refugees, who had fed trom vio- Jeuce in various counties, were there; but after ex- -amining witnesses for two days te Committee determined to gocioser wo the scenes of alleged violence, and went to Spartanspurg. — ‘they @xpected te remain there three or four days, but Stayed eleven. When word got out through Spar- taneburg county that they were there the whites and negroes, victs of violence, came in by scores every Gay from all tious, Murders and cruel ‘whuippings by the Ku Kiux bands had so terrified Them that, in mauy neighborhoods, nearly every wegro Man and re; avlicau White man Dad slept in the woods for months every nignt. They showed scearttea backs, gunshot wounds, maimed ears and wther proots of the violence they had suifered, dn Limestown Springs township 118 cases of whip- Ping were proved. ‘Ihe Committee awoke every moraing to ind in the yard by the hotel a new crowd of victims of Ku Klux, some mcluding whites, who had suficred outrages which cannot ve described ‘With decency. Aiter being Whipped the victims, if ‘Well known persons, were often commanded, under pain of death, 10 pubiish a card renouncing the re- publican party. in a file of we South Carolina Sparian, the democratic hewspaper, forty-two such ‘ecards were lound, recently published. At Unionville the Comumuitiee remained two days. Not an avowed white republican was found tn the place, though members of the Committee were pri- vately assured by a few that they would avow Uhemselves it protected, The terror of the negroes here 1s complete. The jast election was car- fied by a republican majority; but the re. publican county oficers received Ku Kinx notices aud all resigned or fed, ‘ue policy there tas been more towards murder aud less towards whip- ping. The killing of ten negroes, taken trom the jail by several hundred Ku Klux, acti nder mili- tary orgauuation, Was investgaved. “A prominent fawyer of the piace, Mr. Shard, a democrat, on cross-examinauon, startied tne committee by stat Ang that he believed almost every respectabie un- qwarried mau in the community belonged to the Ku Klux, and he believed 1,000 Ku Kiux were with a day’s march Of that villave. A negro Methogist preacter, uamed Louls Tuompson, who aad ap appointinent Jane li at Goshen Mul church, wm Union county, received a Ku Klux notice, in the usual form, not to preach He preached, notwithstanding, to a very few, Most ol tue congregation feelIng when they Baw the noice. ip the evening a cian of twenty mounted Ku Klux came, tied uim and whipped him, Jed tum of several iuiies, dragging him part ol whe Way tied to the horses, whipped him again unui death, mutilated bim in a way that canuot win propriety be described, hung him and threw the body into the Tiger river, leaving a Louce forvid- ding any one to bury num. Beiore the Commitiee returned Senator Scott sent ‘Thompson’s brother, now a refugee trom Columbia, © Union connty with a letter te insare hum a stroug cael of United States cavalry wo go and bury the iy, which Was reported to be still lying aif de- composed on the water's edge. Two more days Were spent in examining witnesses an Columbia. On returning from Spartansburg one Gay was oczupled i licarug the statements and general views of Geueral Wage Hampton and G eral Butler, the democratic candiaate for Governor last fall. The Committee then visited York county, where they remained nearly a week. ‘They Ciscovered at Yorkville a bitter spirit awong the white cliazens. At supper at tue hotel, on the eventug of their ar- rival, major James eiry threw a pitcher of miik over Hon. A. ‘I. Wullace, the Representative of the District, Stevenson, of tue Com- Mittee. Taoey were just seating tuemselves at the table, and not a word had been spoken. Mr. Wal- Jerked ont arevolver and raised It to sioot » the ladies screaming, but the landiord threw himseif before Jerry, and Mr. Steven- son coolly caught Wallace’s hand and ordered the landiord to take that man out of the room. Haifadozen friends gathered around Berry and he went out. in the course of au hour several citizens of prominence called to apologize in the a@implest manner on Lenali of Berry, who was willtag te go on his Knees i required ior what he atleged Was an unintentional affront to Mr. sievenson. It Was subsequneuy ascertained that tne business had been discussed by Berry and hts ineuds during tne alterpoon it was to be carried out, and that Berry haa proposed to use hot coflee, bat finally concluded on milk. The colored band serenaded the Committee later in the eveuing. A crowd of young white men ued the porch o! the hotel and were about the vand, Trequentiy cursing we negroes and the Yankees im an insulung manner. As the band went away the crowd followed and neariy filled the sidewalk. ‘The band and those with it (negroes) were kept by two village policemen from the sidewalk. Oue Begro Was thrust off by a policeman, who says the Degro resisted and strack him. Tue negro and wo mep who were close by say the negro siruggied to get away from the grip of the policeman, who peized, cursed and struck him, but that the negro did Dot strike. As pulled away the policeman tired at the negro, and continued fring until he had in- Dicted five wounds. The man was still living when the Committee left. The testimony taken showed ‘thai botu policeman and Mayor or Intendente were Members of the Ku Kiux. No one was arrested. The community in York county was found to be in aimost utter social ana potitical aemoralization, the civil authorities being a useless farce and a mock- ery of the victims of the Ku Kiux Klan. Colonel Merril, in command of a small force sta- tioned there, an oficer of hign character and great energy, laid before the Comittee the details of BIXty-elghi Cases of outrages which he had investi- J, some Of them Most revolting and horribie, ft was iound impossible for the Committee to ex- amine more than a small part of the crowas of whipped, maimed or terror-stricken wretches who ®Bocked in upon hearing of tueir coming. When ihe Cominittes adjourned the building in Which they had sat was filled, stairs, balls and porches, with those walunog to be heard. The usual course pursuedion arriving ata piace was to divide the time they expected to remain between the majority and the minority of the Committee. Judge Van Trump usually called two or three of the most prominent lawyers, who each occupied several hours in setting forth the democratic view of affairs, giving their inions on the relations of the two races, the ineM™- ciency ana corruption of the State government, and ‘the feeling of the white people toward the general overnment. ‘They always said they had heard of Ku Kinx, but eT BAW One, Generally they seemed ‘to regard them as 4 kind of vigilance committee or Arregular local police; did not cousider them under @ gener organization, but simply to repress outbreaks. The majority then called for those who had seen and feitthe Ku Kiax. The oaths, forms oa pi ag in the Klan, counsels and modes of operation when riding on raids, were fully de. Feloped. Scores of men whom the proof showed to be Ku Klux were examined, al! of whom, except a Tew, whose disclosures were full and imporiant, de- mied any Knowledge whatever of Ku Kiux. one who ‘Was shown to have been in several outrages swore that he had never heard of the existence of Ku Klux An his life. Judge Van Trump subjected all the wit eases called by the majority to the most searching cross examination. ‘The Ka Kiux Committee to-day adopted a resolu- ion for the appointment of a sub-committee of &bree members to hear the testimony of a few wit- messes Dow on their way to Washington, when an adjournment wil! take place unul the 2vtn of Sep- dember.

A Wealthy Merchant Attempts to Kill His Wife, and Failing, Tries to Commit Suicide. Heartrending Scene at the House Last Night. It has been often remarked that great crimes run in certain definite grooves for certain periods in New York. No sooner do we hear of one great crime of a distinct, specific nature than we hear of three or more of the same nature following it almost immediately. A month ago it was the Knife, this month it is the razor, and next it will be the pistol, and so to the end of the chapter; so that, in fact, New York very much resembles Paris in its peculiar statistics of crime. This theory would secm to be thoroughly verified by recent events, Borgias are cropping up all over the country, in imitation of Mes. Laura Fair. A few days ago a well Known and respected gentleman put an end to his own life while sitting at his dinner tabie. Yester- day Benjamin W. Cooper, well known in New York as a well-to-do provision merchant attempted to kill his wife with A CARVING KNIFE, and in desperation, as it would appear, in having failed, cut ls own throatfrom ear to ear, The un- fortunate man resided with his family at 27 Chariton street, He lately retired from busi- ness, having amassed a considerabie for tune, and lived, as it is said, most peace- aply with his wife and unmarried children, rarely being seen ont of doors, and apparently wrapped up in those about him. A reporter from the HERALD visited the house at a late hour 1z night to learn the particwiars of the dreadful occur rence, No. 2718 one of a quiet, respectable looking block of houses on the left hand side of the street. The blinds were closely drawn, and cven at the late hour at which the reporter visited the house there Was no light to be seen from the outside, and noth- ing in its appearance which Would lead the passer- by to believe that A DOUBLE TRAGEDY had weli nigh taken place within the walls. At first the reporter was in uoubt as to whether it was the house of the would-be murderer and suicide, but in ringing the bell his doubts were set atrest. A well dressed young gentleman answered the summons almost tustantly. Io answer to the inguiry if this were Mr. Cooper’s house the gentleman replied that it Was, and appeared to wisi to put an eud to the conversation. ‘he reporter having explained the object of his visit he was ushered into the drawing- rooni on the first floor, ‘this room opens by a foid- ing door to a back room, beth of which were mag- nificently furnished. Inthe inner room were gath- ered together the grief-stricken family. A more SORROWPUL GROUP it would be hard to conceive. In the midst, ina velvet covered arm chair, was seated an old lady, apparently about filly years old, Her hair was gray, though there remained that in her counte- mance to show that sue must have once been a handsome woman. Around her were gathered a vumber of young ladies, most of them her own daughters. ‘Each vied with the other tn adminis- tering to the old lady’s wants, [Her hand wag bound up ip a sling; wet towels were wound roand her head from time to time, and at the time of the reporter's visit sbe seemed almost in a swoon. Hgaring a stranger enter the outer room she started from her chair and nervously asked who had come now. On being told it was a reporter from the HERALD she cricd ouft,y “On, these dreadful news- papers, tnese dreadiul newspapers!’ She was some What quieted on being told tat there was an opportunity Lo contradict any FALSE STATEMENTS which had been published about the occurrence. Two gentiemen, sons-in-law of Mr. Cooper, ex- plained tuat Ue family were fearfully afected at the affair having been made public at all, and that a great deal of exaggeration had deen tnd ulged to. ‘fhey tnen said that tt was not a fact that Mr. Cooper Was if deliriam tremens; Unat his intellect suddenly gave way yesterday morning, and that there were several other inaccurate statements published which they wished to correct, one of which was that there was hereditary madness 10 the family. There is not the siightest ground for such a@ statement, they say, and it could only have ongmated tn the fertile brain of a re- porter. The statement of the family 1s as follows:— About half-past seven o'clock, nis regular hour for rising, Mr. Cooper got ont of bed yesterday morning. He went down stairs to the breakfast room, on tne basement Noor, about cignt o’ciock. His wife was thea engaged in ose | his breakfast with the servant, He seated himself at toe table, ana forthwith commenced to sharpen a carving knife. Suddenly he rusned from the table and into the kitchen. He rashed with the furyof @ maniac at his unfortunate wife, koliein hand. She raised her arm to ward off the biow, and in doing So the knife cut ner right hand almost to the bone. The servant seized her master by the hand and endeavored TO WREST THE KNIFE from tim. In vain he tried to wrestle with the des- perate woman, and seeing that he was fotled rushed irom the kitcheo up stairs to hisown room. The servant ran for Dr. Fleet jor her mistress, and when after fs arrival they both went to Mr. Cooper's room they found him lying on the floor with his throat cut from ear to ear. The horrible gash was sewn up Immediately, but it is the opinion of tus physicians that he cannot live. Mrs. Cooper is suffering from great nervous prostrauon as Well as from the effects of the wound on her hand. Mr. Cooper has a famuy of five grown up aaughters, all of whom feel most acutely. It was painfal to watch the anxiety with which the whole Tauilly wished to suppress the details, The reporter asked before leaving if Mr. ,Cooper had ever been subject to Mts of insanity, and the answer was that he bad. A BOY HOMICIDE. On last Wednesday aiternoon Allen G. Brown, 4 boy six years of age, who lived with his parents at No, 55 Watts street, was playing on the sidewalk in front of his parents’ residence witn a number of other lads. Among the latter was Joho Dunphy, aged fourteen, who lives with his parents at No. 97 Chariton street. Alter playing to- gether for some time a trifling dispnie occurred between the boys, and Dunphy, who had w portion of # broken chair in lis hand ‘at the time, strack the lad Brown on the head with tt, Knocking bim down. Dunphy then ran away. Brown was taken to his home by his companions and placed under the care of Dr, Campbell, of 314 East Eighteenth street. The boy failed rapidiy and expired on Priday afternooo from the edecta of the injury to the head. The police of the Twenty-eighth precinct, in which dis- trict the affair occurred, were ignorant of the whole matier until information of the death of Brown was received at the station house at seven o’clock last evening. Captain McCleary at once caused the arrest of Dunphy and he was iocked up at the Greenwich street police station. Coroner Schirmer has been notified ana will hold an inquest in the case to-day. Dunphy admitted striking the lad brown, but insists that he did not tntend to in- jure him, much jess t cause his death, THE TRADE SOCIETIES AND THE EIGHT HOUR LAW. A meeting of delegates of trade societies was heid at Demsit Hail last night to take measures for or- ganizing a grand public demonstration in favor of the principle of a full day’s wages for eight hours’ work.” Mr. Arthur Curran, stone cutter, presided. ‘The following societies were represented:—Work- ingmen’s Union, Tauiors, Painters, Nos. 1, 4and 5; Operauve Masons, Orispins’ Lodge No. 105, Stair Bullders and Joiners, Plaswrers, Bricklayers Nos. 2 and 4; the Lathers, Plumbers No. 1, of brooklyn, and Plumbers. A desultory debate on trivial points of order occn- ed nearly two hours.

Mrs. L. K. Morton, ‘We-copy the following obituary of Mrs. JL. K, Mor- tom, who died at Newport aJew «ays since, from the Church Journai:— ‘So has ended a life fall of”hope and brightening to largest promise just as it Beared its close. So have en t00, weary won! of agoni struggle with di: hol ous begail promises of re- cov nly to quench Ahem at last im rapid and fatal dectine. Lecy Kimball Morton was one who, to the world’s eye, had everything to live for and who yet learned so thoroughly the lesson of the Master’s severest dis- uid say serenely not iong before her departure, ow I can conceive of the love of God go filling my soul tnat aeath for me will have no terror.” Naturally endowed with rare energy or character, possessing aD execuluive ability vonchsaled to few women, with a cultivated intei- lect. warm sympathies, most ng Manners and many charms of son and temperament, Mrs, Morton tied no insignificant sphere with a grow- ing sense of the responsibility of her influence. By many townom she was known only through the formal social imtercourse of a great city she was imperfectly appreciated, but those who were per- mitted to call her friend early came to recognize the loyaity of her atfections and the warmth and earnestness of her Christian zeal. Confirmed arin the ministry of Bishop Coxe at Calvary charch, her attachment to the Charch and its ser- vices grew und strengihened with every remain- ing year of her life, and speedily took prac- tical and helpful ape. Ine offered herself freely for service among the poor, and ner ready intelligence was ever devising new methods of benefiting them. It wes when her thoughts were full of fresh plans for mimistering to the wants of the ignorant and uncared-for that most = edly to herself and others she found herself re- stricted to the narrow limits of her sick chamber, and destined there to taste the sharp discipline of acute aud long protracted physica! suffering, How she bore that discipline those whose privilege 1t was to see her then and to witness her sweet and un- complaining patience can best testify. For months #he knew no other surroundings than her sick room, and when, as it seemed to those who loved her, she Was about to emerge from her retirement, purified and ennobied by her sufferings, disease fastened itself upon her with renewed power, and slowly out surely her life ebbed away. What her friends had hoped to see her do for her Lord and His Church by her life they now rever- ently, though tearfully, discern that it was His wilt she should do by her death, ‘That death has spoken, as no Itving lips could have done, of the un- certainty of the brightest hopes and of the frail venure With which human hands hold all that the world most prizes. Butit has done more. It has tanght those who loved her what Christ can do for those whose trast 1s stayed on Him—taught them how real are His promises, how rich His grace ! ‘That grace ripened this sufferer for His kingdom and then called ner to Humself. Now that she has gone those who were nearest to her discover dally new traces of its influences in the testimonies to her loving thoughtfulness and large-hearted and discriminating charity, which rise up in quarters the most opposite and unex- pected, St. Barnabas House, the Woman’s Hospttal, ignorent German children, the Industria! School of Grace parish, were only some of the many channels through which secretly. and almost by stealth, as it were, her generous bounty Nowed. Now at last her deeds are known, and “her works do follow her.”” May tbetr memory comfort those wnom her <e- parture has 80 sorely bereaved, and quicken them toemulate her beautiful and blessed ministries, And may we and they rejoice to bless her Saviour's holy name “for the good examples of aii those, His servants, who, having finished thelr course in faith, do now rest from their labors.’?

Shipping Net ‘The schr Thomas P Ball (three-mated), about 450 tons regis- ter, double deck, wiil be launched from the yard of James M Baylis & Sons, Port Jefferson, LI, at noon on Tuesday next, She is owned by the builders and others, is to be commanded “by Captain H B Rider, and intended for theTexas trade. Messrs Evans Bali & Co, agente, A power(ul mad digger, owned by § F Strickland & Bro, of New York city, is now at work deepening the channel In Bridgeport (Ct) harbor, the contract for that purpose having been obtained from government by that firm. The vessel catitaining the new lighthouse, which is to be of the iron screw pile order, hus also arrivrd at the same harbor. aud he lighthouse is 1n process of erection. The dry dock proprietors seem to be particularly unfortu- nate recently. Besides the unaccountable sinking of the sectional dock atthe foot of Clinton street and the one at Rutgers sip belonging to the New York Floating Dry Dock Company, the “box” dock near the foot of Gouverneur slip, owued by a Mr Petrie, and calied the “People's Dock,” met with a singular accident on tast Thursday. It appears that the schooner —— Witham was floated within tt for repairs on the afternoon of that day, and in order to discover the whereabouts of a troublous leak the vessel was scuttled with three or four auger holes to fill her with water, which, when she was raised, wefeto be plngged up, that the confined water, to find an outlet, would have lo seek the place of the mysterious leakage, and so evidence its neighborhood, Fill- ing her with water was a compicte success, but ft so added to her dead weight that she went down tothe deck of tne lowered dock, and both vessel and dock, being unable to rise, Jay submerged until a powerful ateamer was procured and pumped them up. The “box" dock at the foot of Pike slip, belonging to the New York Balance Dry Dock Company, of which Samuel J Tilden fs Presiaent and Jamcs B Nicholson, of the Board of Commissioners of Charities and Correction, i agent, not to be outdone by the rival docks, centributed its aecident on Wednesday evening. A schooner was “cen- tered,” and, being of a sharp build, her bilge blocks were doubled in beight, and when nearly lifted the outer end of the,dock suddeniy raised, of course lowering tbe forward end, and so the vessel, being on an inched plane, was pitched ahead to the distance of ten feet, but, singularly enough, was not injured In the least, possibly on account of the depth of water sbe was tumbled into. She was after- wards successfaiy taken up. The sunken sectional docks have not yet been raised, and it ts likely the entire of next week wiil be exhausted in the effort. The one at the foot of Clinton street 1s in the hauds of Captain Jerael Merritt, of the Coast Wrecking Company, who has contracted to float and place tt on the great sectional dock adjoining the other sunken one near the foot of Rut- gers slip. The tater is in charge of Snperintendent Scott, of the Department of Docks, who is giving his off time tothe job of ratsing {He will use "*jankers” or pontoons, but ex- periences considerable diffculty in carrying out his plans on account of the trouble his divers find in running chains under the sections which are deeply imbedded mn the mud. The scene of the operations of the wreckers attracts throngs of people, who watch with apparent interest the movements of the gangs of men employed by the contractors, The loss of the New York Floating wry Dock Company 1s estimated at $15,000. They bave, fortunately, two other docks in reserve, which suffice to accommodate the few vessels named on the eutrance books. Marine Disasters.
