Thwsda?, December 20,18S3. 3= ? ? ?., 1. : ? , A ?'Jlost Damnable Conspiracy."; J. R, Blackman, Esq., the accomplish ed correspondent of the Neics-and Cou rier, who reported the recent political trials' in Columbia for that journal, drops the curtain on the great Green backVRadical combination performance, in the following style We copy and publish Mr. Blackman's letter in our editorial columns, because it says just what we want to say, only in a more forcible manner than we could say it, He says: "Now that the conspiracy to <50BVict Democratic citizens in the United States Court by means of juries packed with Republicans and.Greeh Bp&aekers has failed, it is a matter of jus jsSrtiee to those who stood up for right against oppression that thepublic should gebe gjven their names, and on the other hand' it is a matter of justice to the ggftubiie to know the names of the miscr fiBfrbie gang who, under oath to well and * tornly try and true deliverance make, voted every time in the jury-room to convict Innocent men on absolutely no proof, and who would have done so '. . equally as speedily if the Government hM not eyen gone through the farce of |||"a trial. The. three men to whom the people of South Carolina owe the deliv . erance of the defendants in these cases fl*e Messrs. Gullen Lark of Laurens, ,T. G; Long of Union, and Hezekiah E1?3 ?f JKerahaw. These gentleman were assumed -by Melton and Speer, because ipof ther Greenback or Republican sym - pathies, to be like the .rest of their cringing minions on the panel, but they were mistaken. And to prove that the effort was to convict, testimony or no testimony, Melton eliminated these gen tlemen from his select crowd just as ^fc^^slr^fmvr^ like the do hisMirty work. The names^S^he white jurors who in every casciS, which they were used voted for convic tion, were Middleton Ray of Spartan burg, Fuller Prickett of Orangeburg, C. C. Turner of Spartanburg, J. IL John son of Clarendon, Wm. Grant of Ches terfield, D. C. "Wolfe of Lancaster, E. R. Bolger of Charleston, E. L. Arthur of Orangeburg, and John Agnew of Colum bia. Negroes are not mentioned. Noth ing better could be expected from them> but the names above given are white men. They have cast their lot with the lowest elements of tho Radical party. ^^Let ^rre^peopla^omposing the commu nities in which trfsj^livc see to it that they henceforth tmilrireit^^ssociates ?: there and be forever shut out astffi^jlean things from the threshold of decent ancT . respect-able'society. There can be no \filaim from these jurors'that they acted from conscientious reasons and founded their action upon the testimony. It is positively known, and it dare not be denied, that these jurors, with the Re publican negroes on the panel, actually held caucuses and bound each other to vote for conviction before. the cases were brought to trial. "Was there ever such a travesty of justice in a free coun try ? Mr. Long, by whose manly adher ence to his oath as a juror the Marion defendants were saved from conviction, Is from a Greenback family, and attend ed these caucuses, although having no ? sympathy in their nefarious object. Melton thought he had Long all right, because his henchmen reported that Long had attended tho caucuses and "^was-red-hot for conviction. But Long was playing .a game that Melton didn't understand, and Mr. Melton got loft." Chrlntma*. Time, in his ever ceaseless, onward march, has again brought us to the threshold of Christmas, and it is meet and proper for us at this season to turn . aside from the strife and turmoil of I business, and join with the millions of our fellow creatures scattered over the vent of the Prince of Peace into the - world. The recurrence of this gladsome timo paints many pictures on the ean -nivilized world in celebrating the ad vas of the mind. Some are bright joyous pictures, full of sheen, dazzle and glitter, white others,-alas.!: are som bre and sad and luridly tinted with that unutterable despair begotten of> the "might have been"; ""Whata glorions Christmas that. was when we were all with father and' mother' at the old home!" ""What;a ghastly Christinas was that when ?fathefs chair was for the first time f*t?d: forever-vacant!." Thus ring the f'eils of memory, now joyously, now sadly, and thus will they ring until the enj't - of time. There are hearts to-day, arfaitinp patiently, brok en down in a sorrow that time cannot heal, for the summons to rejoin some so loved that the light^of life is already extinguished, and the motive for exist ence is taken a-.way. To all such sorrow ing hearts we Hope the Spirit of Christ mastide will come in truth and bring that peace which pa&scth all under standing. To others, the day is one of glad rejoicing: to parents in the enjoy ment of their children's life and. love; to children, in. the consummation of deltghtslonganticipated from the hands of fond and doting parents; to friends, grasping hands "after long separation, and, to men and women, who, halting for a moment by the wayside of life, ex change s friendly greeting or revive in social warmth the Yulelog scenes of long, long ago. Men, hardened by life's vicissitudes, roughened by a round of toil, soured by contact with selfishness and rapacity, will feel their hearts beat more softly ami their voices sound nio^gcntly, as animosities are cleared ^avvay and estrangements are healed. Let them not seek to stifle the prompt jags of a better nature, but remember j that a kind act will remove the cob- | webs that sordidly cluster about the j heart's best affections. So few Christ mas days fall to our lot that it is a pity for us to lose one chance of doing good that a little selfish advantage may be gained. To one and all, The Tdies ,\ Democrat extends a hoa.ty greeting, and hopes that to all those whose heads are bowed in sorrow will come a peoce from Him who brought the glad tid ings of "Peace on earth and good will i to man" that this world can neither give nor lake away. WM Shall Our Town Insuo Bonds? }Ye mentioned some time ago that the charter of our town was about to be amended In some important particu lars, One change proposed gives our Town Coiincil the right to issue bonds to the amount of ST5.000 for improve ments. . We have not given the matter much consideration, but we are free to say that we are "not ?n favor of tho -proposition. If there was an urgent need for the money, we would have not a word to say against raising it by issu ing bonds, but as the improvements proposed can be carried on from year to year until completed, the money be ing raised each-year by taxation to pay for such Improvements as are expected tobe made during that year, we can see no necessity for issuing bonds. Tho interest that we would have to pay on the bonds' could be made to subserve the ends for which the bonds thcmeslves are to be issued. To illustrate we will suppose a case. Suppose the town issue bonds to the amount of 975,000. To place these bonds advantageously on the market the interett *on them could not be fixed at a lower rate than 7 per cent, per annam. Granting this to be true, it would take $5,250 each year to pay the interest on these bonds. Ac cording to this calculation in less than fifteen years we will have paid back in interest to the holders of these bonds their face value. In the face of these facts, would it not be wiser and more economical for our Town Council to levy a tax sufficient to raise ?5,250 each year over and above the current expenses for fifteen years and apply it to the improvements needed than to sad dle the town with a bonded debt, the interest on which would amount to that figure? At the end of fifteen years we would have raised just as much money as the bonds would give us and besides, we would have no huge debt hanging over us. "We would not op pose any measure that would promote the prosperity of our town, but we do not think that the improvements con templated are of sufficient importance to warrant us in assuming a debt of such huge proportions. Petty SXeannc**. In answer to the charge made by some of our State papers that the "Augusta Chronicle is furnished to the members of the South Carolina Legisla ture free in the interest of the railroads, that journal says: "Some of our Carolina contempora ries arc inclined to be jealous of the Chronicle's increasing circulation ac ross the river. "With our full Columbia specials, this paper is eagerly sought for in the Pallmetto State, anil its free distribution to members of the Legisla ture is inspired by no motive other than one of courtesy to the honorable gentlemen, who, we are gratifiied to know, appreciate the compliment. There was a time?in 1876?when the Chronicle was needed in Carolina, and there never has been a moment, we be lieve, when its circulation has not been .welcomed. Some of our eldest and best paiTCT&pe Carolinians, and we are not aware tiJpt its universal reception in Columbia iTi??-3ll distasteful, except to a few disgruntled^SWTials. The covert charge, then, that the^chronicle is fur nished in the interest of tn^FS^roads, or that its circulation is secureoNby.. aught but a general interest in the prosperity of the good people of that State, is unequivocally false. The Chronicle has built up a fine cir culation in our State. It is an excellent paper, always outspoken in its utter ances, and has rendered valuable service to our people in the past, and we hope it will not be overwhelmed by the petty meanness that is now marking the ac tion of some, of our State papers. We read the Chronicle with as much >preasur6 and profit as any paper that visits-bur sanctum.^ , The newsplip^re--?;ho^dvocated Mr. Carlisle's election are anything butiTTai>. monious on the tariff question. The News and Courier insists on a "tariff for revenue only" plank in tho Demo cratic platform, while the New York World boldly proclaims that "Neither the Democrats in Congress, nor the Democratic National Convention, nor any sane man will think of adhering to 'a tariff for revenue only.'" Thit is pretty heavy on the editors of the News and Courier, who are generally regard ed as sane men, but a little cranky on the subject of the tariff. The World further says that the word "only" will be omitted, as it defeated the Democra cy in 1880. "We hope the Carlise organs will reconcile their differences on this important question, as it is certain we can't have a "tariff for revenue only" plank and an "incidental protection" plank in our platform at the same time. Somebody is going to bo disappointed. The New York Sun sometime ago said that "the gentlemen who favor a strictly revenue tariff, on the ground that it comes the nearest that is possi ble to the system of free trade, have now got control of the organization of the House of Representatives. They are pledged to bring in a bill for the reduction of the tariff; and this reduc tion, according to their programme and their promise, must be based upon the principle that revenue alone is to be aimed at, and" protection excluded." Commenting on this paragraph the New York World says that "No such programme is thought of as possible. Not a man in the Democratic party has hinted at such an absurdity as a tariff .with protection excluded. There are more free-traders in the Republican party than in the Democratic party, and very few in either." We wonder if the World exchanges with the News and Courier t The ppoplc of South Carolina owe J. K. Blacknum, Esq., the staff correspon dent of the News and Courier who re ported the recent political trials in Co lumbia, a debt of grat itude for the fear less way in which he exposed the mean ness of .Melton, Speer & Co. in their ef forts to convict innocent Democrats of the most infamous offences. We would not detract one iota from tho credit duo the lcgul gentlemen who so man fully and successfully stood between these innocent Democrats and their vile pursccutors, but we honestly believe that J. K. Blackinan contributed as much, by his scathing letters, as any one to the happy termination of these po litical persecutions. He not only ex posed the high-handed methods of Mel ton and Speer, but, also the inconsisten cies of the lying Government witnesses. Jurymen Prickett and Arthur, with all their prejudice and hatred, could not do the white people of the State any harm w hile serving Melton and Speer in Columbia. Bond planted, Melton and Speer watesed, but Prickett and Arthur couldn't give the increase. Ol"R neighbor, the Augusta Chronicle and Coiistitiiti&nalist,'mmt not let its soul be troubled over the eccentricities of some of our Scute journals. They don't mean any harm. They are only a little off at times. ??? ? The Greenbackers who have been bootlicking Melton and Speer for tie last week or two in Columbia must feel pretty sore over the termination of the political persecutions in a fiasco. Some of our exchanges are congratu lating the News and Courier on its es cape from tho dish of crow which some of us predicted wouid be its diet after the election of Speaker. These congrat ulations are premature. Wait until af ter the Convention meets and defines the Democratic position on the tariff. If the party adopts the Ohio idea of in cidental protection to home industries, which now seems very probable,'Our Charleston cotemporary will, have to eat crow, or do what it has invited the friends of Mr. Randall to do, quit the party. The names of Messrs. Cullen Lark, of Laurens; J. G. Long, of Marion; and Hezekiah Ellis, of Kershaw should be written in big, black letters on the heart of every man in Souh Carolina who loves justice and hates oppression. These are the three men who dared to throw aside their political prejudices and disdain their personal interests to regard their oaths as jurymen and do justice to the Democrats whom it was intended to punish for the victories of their party and their State's rejection of radicalism and crankism. A leather medal inscribed with the Word '-Traitor" should be presented to Arthur and Prickett, the tw<o white men from this county who were among the most servile tools of Melton in per secuting Democrats before the United States Court in Columbia. Their igno rance and obscurity is no excuse for their traitorous conduct. The Louisville Courier-Journal puts the country on notice that it will not be a stickler for aHariff for revenue only" in the next Democratic platform. This is following Mr! Carlisle's lead in the line of true reform. The Times and Democrat will not suspend on account of Christmas. So our subscribers can look for their paper as usual next week. We wish every subscriber, whether he has paid up or not, a merry, merry Christmas. Conference Appointment*.

After the reading of the appoint ments the Conference was adjourned with benediction by Bishop AVilson, to meet in Charleston next year. AVe had the pleasure of meeting in Columbia last Saturday Brother Haz ard, of the Geoagetown Enquirer, who is one of the handsomest members of the present Legislature, TlteFurce Closes, As expected, the political trials in Columbia came to an ignominious end on last Thursday. The collapse -was rather more sudden than was looked for considering the great pomp and pre partion that was displayed on the part cf the prosecution. -On Thursday morning, Melton, and Speer paraded into the Court room loaded, as usual, with books and papers, and it was presumed from this fact that the Fairfield Demo crats, whose cases came next, were to be the subjects of a demolishing on slaught. As soon as Judge Bond took his seat, Col. Haskell, counsel for the Democrats asked for time as several essential witnesses for the defence were absent. Melton rose and objected to the delay with considerable vigor. To the complete discomfiture of Melton and Speer, Judge Bond, evidently dis gusted at the whole affair, said: "I don't think it is worth while to pro ceed with this case or any of these cases. The juries have been locked up for several days with no result. It seems to me that we are making no progress whatever, and I think that the cases should be continued to the next term." Judge Melton demurred at this with considerable demonstration, after which Judge Bond quietly ordered a continuance of all the political cases until the next term. Thus ended the farce for the present, and probably for all time. Melton went out as he came in, having accomplished nothing. Speer hastened back accross the Savannah without a single Democrat scalp to adorn his fame, and the pliant and dis appointed Greenbackers scampered back to their various hiding places. Speer has evidently found out now that juries in South Carolina, although "packed" as they were in Columbia with such care for his special benefit, are not quite as plastic and unanimous as they are in Northern Georgia where he succeeded recently in convicting a number of Democrats. We hope he ?oes home a wiser if not a better man. 'he result of the trials has been, two mistrials and one acquittal. This is all that has come of the vast expenditure of money and labor by a partisan gov ernment for the gratification of parti san spleen. Xho Legislature. Since our last issue the Legislature has done very little. In the Senate the Divoice Bill came up and was killed. This disposes of this question in South Carolina, and we are glad of it. The most important matter that has been brought up this session in either House, was a bill.to amend the present Railroad law. After a long and tedious discussion in the House it was passed by a vote of 50 to 57. The colored mem .hers voted solidly for the bill. It is claimed that this measure practically repeals the Railroad law passed last winter. The opponents of the bill claim that it will-not pass the Senate, and will therefore be defeated. The House has also passed a bill repealing the Lien Law, to go into effect on the first of January, 1885, but the Senate refused to concur, so the bill was killed. Shcr Ell'Sale.
