Bradloy. The discredited in "AdMniitra Alo th Governor Han tf on his errand to)Vplingto, there were, besides Qe.erals. Conner ald Butler, .a cominittee of merchants and capithtlists from Charleston. They put plainly before the Presi, dent the present deprossd state, of business aid thq evil results certain to followa ?cdfitinutincp of the pros ent unsettledi coidiion.of the State government. In his conferopce, with teio Presi dent, Governor Hanipton reiterated his intention 'to nnaintain inviolate the rigtl tq ot citigons' df p,1U casses, and to resort to none but legal remedies for the attainment of, the end he.has 4n Ni v/- the podkession. of the 'tat. reord an ho state buildings. in the purpose thus ex, pressed, . the, Governor bnly gave uttoran~etolhe feeling of the entire Dinocrhef pf So1th Carolina. And iow comes a co respond'etit of the Richrnbh1d 'Apatc4.oana says that th' beautiful atoiy about Grant's declining the sword of Leo at Apponitoi is all i nmyth: ' He says Lqd iver offered his p ird,the terms of suiiei99r letig Lh}t ,pfli cer s should ,retnia their side. arms. It seems teally a pity to deprive his tory of suh s :retty 'tale. Mueh worse is it, to - akof'pap Grant all the 1Cledit he has enjoyed for one! of the few manlyiaurysoljierly acts of wnich peoplq ever auspcted him.

The question bf arnptone right' to the oflico was not discussed. What passed in the Interview with Chamberlain has not yet transpired There-now -remains ~-nothing- for President h ay s to Ad - ontj 1.aia notbing for him to do-but to order the troops out of our State House and let the Hanpton Government take that peaceable possession which must be the. result of such -with drawal. , l hass4id all along that he wanted light. In all conscibnce, he ought now' to have all the light that cen possibly be thrown upon tpo, mattpr. He has claimed to be "iainaining the statue qu." But, as: v matter, of fact;, he has sustaiUQd the usirpation of : maberlin, and tiue aidad hii in -obstructing. the work of 'the lawful governmqnt of the SDte. . The hamberlain: officials and their pimps have had bxcltusive access to the State re cords, .and. all otberswho wanted to enter 1 publie ofibe in the State House have been kept out at the point of the federal bayonet. This is a strange sort" -f neutrality-it might well be 'termed an "armed neutrality"-and it is high time that the Administration cease to play the part of partisan, under the guise of pretended impartiality. The peo pl of Sbit Carolina !re heartily sick of delay, and they demand, as a-simple act of justie, thiat Mr. Hayes, fin bie capabity of -com mandeor-in-hief of -the United States mI itary fiorces, shall otdor his soldiers to their proper camping ground, and leive tlhe te4h House far the ocdupanoy of thoe lawfully entitled to its posgession.
