WHITHER ARE WE DRIFTING?
The Radical Meeting on Saturday.
Disgraceful Proceedings.
Hoge an Incendiary.
To a candid sobcr-sidcd enquirer,
we would dosire to furnish no elcarcr
exhibition or more conclusive proof of
what Radicalism is actually doing, or
the greater evils which it threatens to
accomplish, than is furnished by the
disgraceful proceedings of the meet?

of tlio excllcment of a circus exhibition,
to superadd to tho usual attractions
of a .Radical demonstration, the
leaders of the party succeeded in collecting
here one of tho largest and
we must say the most riotous, disorderly
and drunken crowds of blacks
which has ever appeared on the streets
of Abbeville. "We have had Radical
meetings here before, but thev were
comparatively quiet awl orderly, because
tho orators of the occasion
made some show of conservatism,
deprecated a collision of races, and
advised the blacks to deport themselves
orderly when here, and to disperse
early and quietly to their
homes. Was any such advice given
to the meeting on Saturday? On]
tho contrary, was not everything done
by intemperance of language and
deed to provoke a collision of races?
Wlien free-born Anglo-Saxons are arrestod
by their late slaves at the beck
ol aonie wonkl-be official, who disgraces
the function ho usurps, and violates
the law ho pvotends to enforce,
wo may well wonder at tlie moderation
which tamely submits. That
moderation wo may commend, but
cannot anticipate. We are but men.
and wlieu to tho usual provocations
which lead to violence, arc super-added
tho antagonisms of raco and condition,
wc may well wondor that wo
cscape the natural and legitimato conecqucuces
of scenes like those of Saturday.
It may be that wo owe our
cscape to tho fact there wero but
lil'teen or twenty of "the Bolid men''
of the District present on tho occasion.
Or it may be that had tho stalwart
sons of Abbeville been preseul
in force, as at our lato Fair, tho demonstration
of Saturday would not
have occurred. If so, it would have
provoked a collision. Docs Radicalism.

Shall the whites he excluded

under pain of arrest as a malefactor?
JJoastcd right of frw speech! Boasted
land of liberty! Yet it was for
the exercise, of this first privilege of
American citizenship, that two of our
most respected citizens wero arrested
on Saturday?And two others for an
unfounded charge of having done so?
arrested by negroes?with oaths and
maledictions?confined for hours nnder
guard?and as they were arrested
without cause, so discharged without

Uogo evades the question, and
appeals to the passions of his audience
by denouncing the word "nigger," as.
a term of apprsbrium. Capt. Cochran
disuvows the use of the term in
an offensive sense, but Hoge refuses
to hold any further colloquy. Maj.

"Upon what meat doth this Cn>sar

j?or who hath vouchsafed this immunity

The Guffixs Again.?We extract
the following from a letter received
from an esteemed citizen of Cokesbury
:
"Tho law is ignored, and vengcance
appealed to by those claiming to be
jlaw-makors fbr Abbeville. On last
I XlondaV, When tho train ni?rivnr? of
Hodges from Abbovillo, Air. Pcm
Guffin, recently elected to tho Legislature,
got out of tho cars accompanied
by a company of armed negroes
and essayed a speech somewhat to
ithis effect: "I stand upon the soil
where the Hon. 13. F. Randolph pour
ed out his lifo's blood and we intend
to have revenge for it. The first liepublican
killed in this county every
leading Democrat shall be killed and
their houses burned down over them."
This was apparently addressed to
somo dozen whito men who were
standing near. Here, Mr. Editor, is
an appeal to the passions of tho igno-1
aani, colored people to set abide law, i
and tako matters into their own 1
hands. This is the counsel of aso- j
called lawmaker. Will ho bo sustained
by those in authority? Thcj
colored people as a class arc misrepre-1
scntcd by this fellow, for they are j
really better citizens than he, and he
certainly docs not pretend to represent
the whito people. It .seems to
be a bid for the votes of tho colored
people at the next election, but from
all I can learn ho will fuil to get any
respectable people of that class to
sustain him. Tho other Mr. Guffln
" ** 1 - f* rt
nuu viaiuio tuo HL'ut oi oenator, to
which ho was not elected, Bcaled his
devotion to the fair sex by kissing
two of them on the platform just
beforo the train left. This, however,
is a matter of taste, and I am unable
to say which was most degraded by
it, or which waa most honored."
Riot in Dewberry.?Wo learn
from the Newberry Herald, that that
town has of late expericncod a taste
of Radical lawlessness- Tim
says :
"Our peaccablo town was made on
Wednesday night laet the scone of a
most disgraceful riot. A band of
lawless, stupid leaguers, after an adjourned
meeting, in which they had
had the assistance of sundry carpetbaggers,
sallied out with a large drum
and many of them armed with pistols
shot guns, Ac:, paraded tho streets
until long after midnight, making
night hideous with yolls, shouts, firing
of weapons, and offensive language.

tlio contents of a discharged gun,
whether accieentally or not, it is impossible
to say, the window glass broken,
and his family disturbed and

Notwithstanding tho grievous character
of this riot, no interference was
made on tho part of our citizens."

of our common country. lie
bids them foster negro labor, and

urges the necessity of improved

concludes with theso noblo sentiments

was killed in the neighborhood, he
would burn ever}' gin-house and dwelling

Death of an Esteemed Citizen.
"We regret to announce the death oi
Mr. John Taggart, an old and high
esteemed citizen, which occurred after
a short illness, at his residence in this
village, on Sunday last, the 21 inat.
Tho deceased was born in this villago
in January, 1801, and was henco in
tha 69th year of his age. He was the
son of Mr. Moses Taggart, long tho
Ordinary of the District, and served
himself for one torm,as sheriff of Abbeville,
having been elected to that
offico in 1835. With the exception of
a short absence, bis life wad spent in
Abbeville village; and here he was
universally esteemed, for tho high integrity
of his character, and the rare
kindness and affability of his temper.
Ho was a member of the Espicopal
Church here from its foundation; his
last moments were cheered by the
consolations of the Chrtstain faith.
Ho leaves a large circle of Relatives to
mourn his loss.
