The Abbeville Correspondent ol' t.lio Charleston Republican. Abbeville "Kyounly"' furnishesralb or niQ}*c than its fair proportion ol thtt JfU-rvost of borrors which give l l t . *i ,.i ..i |ijui i * i tup " i n in Hi) ui thfi Daily llcfmhlicuH, and make li]> its Campaign magazine of electioneering ammpnition. (Soinej)f the upper districts arc beyond the sphere of lie publjcan inlluenee and ;nv hopelessly nnli-lhulieal in tlioii* proclivities. :imi hence furnish 110 material to stimulate the hopes, or reward the ctforts o( fhe Kadical campaigners. ^lost oi the lower districts owing to the pre potnloranco pf the negro element, they hold, as so many eouquered provinces, and these call for no expenditure pi" Campaign ammunition. 1 >uL in Abbeville where the races are more equally balanced, and where the negro hipiseH' lias sense enough to Kee .Uadicalism in its proper colors? in Abbeville 1 it's the debatoable land? ' tho bloody ground," where (Jreek Jilcets tireek.' The brilliancy of the prize and the uncertainly of the issue impart additional interest to the contest, and lladicali-Mii relaxes no cll?;rl .and spares no artifice to stimulate its friends, and cireuinvent its lues. A whole volley of misrepresentation juid abuse?of sensational rumors and electioneering falsehoods?i-> discharged by iiitrigueiu^ editors, and inm^iinttiv? correspondents, to delude the simple, and deceive the unwary. "The end justifies tho means,'' and \vhrn an object is to ue j^aiited, llad ieoliam .spares no ellbrt and scruples }il no measures. As might be liunposed. the pending election for Members of tho Legislature, luvs quickened into new life, the f-alijuiuuiliug arts of the partisan and 1 l.f> .....I ?. .. ...... more than the usual harvest of misj-oj)i-c.scnlatiou and abuse. Wo have jiml occasion before to expose these arts and to correct these calumnies, rtiid we havo resolved more than once to desist from the bootless task; when 16 some new1 feat of the plastic and Audible uuiibuiuiico <>) the Ahbevillo correspondent of the Jlcpuhliciw tempted us to forego our resolution. Of t|ijs character is a late letter from Ibis veracious correspondont reviewing the last term of our criminal Court. "But before referring tA t.ho Intfpr !i?t liu k?i\- n iriir.I < I... ... ? ?v " " "" " * " pditor. Tho editor of tlio Republican cxpr?B808 his regret, and sheds a few 'croeodilo tears," at being compelled to publish this letter ; but supported ub it is by the affidavits of responsible names, ho has no alternative. Now does the editor expect any man, woman or child to believe this! Not publibh a letter upon the heels of an election, which would make so admirable a campaign document in a K;\d h-:u canvas: -jcii liioiuc marines !" ^Cot to publish would be show his incompetency?to miss his vocation. It is just bj* procuring and publishing *nch letter*, that be butters bis own bread, nnd serves bis party. But now for the letter itself. iSays the letter: "At the late term of the Criminal Court, held tbo last of SoptemJber, nothing was done to further tbo cuds of justice. Partisanship and politics controlled everything, whiio justice and right had no plACu in tho proceedings. If a man was a Democrat, lie was declared injjoccnt, no matter what crime he was or or what evidence of his crime prodnccd. II' a Kcpublican the severest penalties were in 11 iciod.*' Thi6 is all BtntV-?"found and fury signifying voting." It is mere assertion, which wo can meet bv counter{insertion, and more than that, contradict by any amount of testimony. Hut now for the specific allegation* of the letter, Tho -writer says tlint -at tko late term of tho Court, Bay.il Collalrtxin, and Henry Clinkscalos, yrero indietod for tho murder of Aljwjt JtfcAdams, and though two witnesses testified to their guilt bofore the Qrand Jury, 3*et the bill was ihroWU out bpcjftuso they wero ' Democrats and tho deceased a Republican, liiis^is slmp'j' ridiculous, and lost this 'should bo patent to all, the writer suppresses tho fact that Henry Cliukseales is a negro, and for aught hu KirowB, ms goou ? jtuuieai as jnmsclf. But bow does this sapient in. former know wbat the witnesses testified -to before itho Grand Jury? i Doca.ho know, or does the editor wlio . iy?ke$ rpfcrep^e to swor^ ^statements, - , know, that (^'r/io(l Jurovs, and -witjiojwes alike, subject themselves to fine, who disclose /what takes place Jjeforo a Graiiu Jury. Ihit admit flia?-thc s^atcmcrtt is true, and that ivfo ttitncs&es testified to tho guilt oi the accused, wo1 know that twonly Witnesses could have been produced, (Mid a sufficient numbor wero in.at * ' tendance,) JU) prove that tho prosecutbr was entiroly unworthy- of credit; and we suppose that there was like testimony to disprove tho statements or impeach tho character of thoqthor Witness. This wo know, and are pre pared to substantiate?-that when application woe mado for bail before ^d^eVQrr, the affidavit* for tho pros' ^enu^n were ?o fliniKjVthat the Judge WU disposed to discharge the prisonpi* opon their own recognizances. $fone in thin community Radicals or whatnot,believe then? to bo guilty. Th? other allegation is equal absurd, Jb^t Newby Laving bee?i )irresje<| fyr k J * drawing his pistol upon one of the!
