Ipe Press and Banner. ABBEVILLE, S. C, [ Wednesday, Nov. 1, 1876. Close of Ihe Canpaiga. I With this issue ends our labors in he political campaign which is so big rijth event* for the citizens of South Carolina and the people of the wholei Jnited States. Let us act as unit and! o our best for the cause of Demoeray. Don't neglect to vote for Tilden nd Hendricks as well as for tie whole State ticket. Act with iscretioq, gnd whatever 'be ihej esult we shall abide the couse-; uences. Theiudications pointelearly iHt Tilden and Hendricks will be ected by a small majority. Chamerluiu possibly may carry the State. fl?A vAtau nf tliA KJ^ U|/WU wit TVIVO v. %..v | its vve shall expect the election of | Democratic ticket in this county, course the whites alone can elect e of our nominees, but at last acuta seven hundred aijd eighty-nine red men had joined our party and tnised to aid us in electing true i to office. VVe believe they mean to in good faith with us. This being case, the election of the Democratcket in the county is certain. Go je polk early. A Plea for the School Boy. 'hen the brass band announces the ide of the ponies, und the long ession ,of caged animals with the ted mule aud the meek looking els and the ponderous elephant to gup the rear; aud when every else shouts himself hoarse at the :ant, who can depict the torture the school -boy wIJl experience n deprived of the fuu aua forced ok iutently upon the hated book, iher, be humane ypon your puand if you will not fct them go to he circus and see the moafcey and lear the clown, let them witness the mrade through the streets at 4eayt, for t would be cruel to deprive them of hatcomfort. Kemember teacher,you oo were once a boy. Last Thursday was pretty geueralK, observed in this community as a ay of fasting, humiliation- and prayer. And services were held in the Methodist church in the morning, the Uev. Mr. Pratt, officiating. His sernon was so well received that some of lis hearers have asked us to publish t. At night the religious services were continued iti the Presbyterian hurch. There seemed to be a deep eeKnsr pervading the whole oommuni ;y. Business of "all kinds being suspended the town presented a Sunday look. There was no service in any of tbe rhurches ou Sunday except in the Methodist. The day being a beautiful Indiau Summer Sunday the house was crowded with worshippers fron. the other congregations to listen to the [lev. Air. Wightman who preached a line sermon on tbe subject of three feasts. Mr. Wightman isan impressive preacher and stands in high esteem with the Christians of this place. We publish this week a list of the managers of election which will be found in another column. There are , sixteen voting precincts with one white man and two negroes at each box. All of the managers are specially requested to report at Abbeville on Saturday next, to receive boxes, papers and instructions. Spitting in Chubcii.?ft seems to us that the lmbit of chewing tobacco in church and spitting over the floor to be decidedly wroug. It offends decency and refined feelings to have a ( man spitting over the floor, and then ! it is showing disresj>ect to the house dedicated for the worship of tbe Most High. Young man, quit it. Gen. Hampton will close his triumphal march from the moumaiua to theseaboard, inColumbiaon Saturday, l- (ivua.t nrorutratinnH are IIIC TbU IIIOV# vwv |>> being wade, and it is expected to be the grandest demonstration of the , canvass. , ~Wk learn that there Is a large number of intelligent colored men who refuse to takeany part in the present race issue. Tbey admit the Democrats will win and tbey propose to wait and see , the result'before they take an active jjart again. < Somk idiots are still trying to convince the world that we do not want the negroes remanded to slavery. Jf there is a man in all this country who believes such a thing he ought to hide . bis face iu shame fo>* bis iguorance. ( Hellwakds. ? Is this a good word ^ to come from a pulpit in the sanctuary i of him who made uh. We object to \ the use of strcug words. We think the / use of the above word should be abol- J ished in polite society. ( No Cot'KT.?Judge Cooke* failed to * put in an appearance on Monday last, and Court was adjourned over uutil Thursdav, the '2d instant, when the civil business requiring no juries, will be takeu up. 1 A squad of United States soldiers. 1 numbering about seventeen, came to this place during the past week, and joiued their company. They are just ' from the recruiting camps. Tub most demoralizing thirginthe ' world is a hot political campaign, we t hope the times will never demand c such another uprising as we have f witnessed during the last six months, t Nkwekkry IIkhalo.?We regret to j notice by the last Newberry Herald that j our frleod Mr. Thomas F. Greneker's health is snch that he is unable to edit his paper* He has brought to his assistance H the service* of W. H. Wallace, Esq., a j voung lawyer of talent and education. > We welcome Mr. Wallace into the press gang. Nothing tliat appears to us to have ' been written in malice, or with the inten- < tir>n nf odrsonal iniurv shall appear in the Prcna and Banner.' Person* aggrieved at f what may appear in other papers roust ' seek redress through the columns of the ' paper oiferding, and not in ours. Now is the accepted time, colon*! men. Come up like men, and lend ytour assist- . ance towards redeeming the State. You will never have abetter chance of show ing vour disposition to see the right succeed. Accidektly Scared.?A gun went | off while in the hands of Mr. James ] M. (iitos, of this place, on Monday last, < the ball passing between his Angers, < without doing any damage. i Removal.?After this issue the Pre** and Bander will occupy the rooms over Messrs. Parker A Perrin's store, where they will be pleased to see their friends. traek anH the neo V/X* JU X l/UV D?*?FI v VT vvn pie of Abbeville will be expected to throw off the yoke which for several years has been pressing so heavily upon them. Oneof Monterey's fairest daughters is so enthusiastic in the cause of Democracy, that she gives three loud cheers for Hampton while asleep. Shot in the hand.?Our townsroan, Mr. H. T. Tustin, was accideutly shot by the discharge of a pistol in his own hands, on last Monday. We learn that Mr. E. A. Mars, of Calhoun's Mills, will open a store on (iranite Range soon. We welcome liini in our midst. We have received the Rural Carolinian for November. It Is one of our bast agricultural magazines and should K? hu oMPv farmer. irv j The amount of small grain that will be sown this season in Abbeville County is simply enormous. An unsuccessful tempt to break into the store of Mr. W. Koseuberg was made one night last week. It is a debatable question whether there is any money in the raising of cotton at 8 and 9 cents. See important change in the advertisement of the Town Council for working roads. Sow oats, Sow oats. It's not too late. The farmer cannot afford to neglect this crop. Colobep men, vote for Hampton and home rule on the 7th. Items from Lebanon. Lebanon Grange met on Saturday last, and gave the finishing touch to Mr. L. C. Ligon. They propose to have some fun between this aud the first of December. Lebanon Change can boast of some of the prettiest ladies in the County. The Junior had better take a note of this. A target match took place recently near Lebauon, aud we learn that one young man, Mr. J. Evans, succeeded in hitting the target. We suggest that they exteud a challenge to the Irish team for a game at Creed moor, in 1877. Fast day was pretty generally "observed by the good people of Lebauon,! aud service was held in Lebanon church by the pastor, Rev. J. F. Gi-: bert. The young ladies of Lebanon do not believe iu female suffrage as a general thing, but think an exception might be made in their case this year ana they be allowed to cast their votes for Hampton. Hog Stolen.?A negro with a hog on his shoulder, was run upon by a white man on Fast Day, in the woods in rear of a negro quarter on Mr. S. F. Gibert's place. The thief succeeded iu making his escape, but lost his pork. He must have been fasting, but not praying. Fkesii pork seems to be in demand amoug Chamberlain's pets in Lebanon. A negro was run from the hog Den of Mr. A. J. Wood hurst on la.?t Thursday night. Another case of fasting. The farmers of Lebanon have not commenced sowing their grain yet. They have devoted their whole time to polities and gathering cotton. But they iuteud to commence in earnest after the 7th of November, and sow all their surplus lands in oats and wheat. Chamberlain's doves will not find it so easy a matter to get a home in the Lebauon neighborhood next year. We suggest that they join that solemn procession of carpet-baggers, headed by Daniel himself, which is expected to leave Columbia afterthe 7th of November, for thek homes in the North. ??? What is Intimidation t Tlxe^ Aeemn to be a misunderstanding as to what Is intimidation. We understand it to be violence?either actual or threatened. We can with impunity go to the pells and use any argument we choose, as long as we do not offer or threaten violence. We would advise our people to put their pistols in their pockets on that day and not exhibit them at all. We cau, in our opinion, hire whom we choose and refuse to hire whom we please. If there is any violation of law in expresjssng a preference, we have not seen it, and are unable to see the justice of such a law. We say then, if a rxSutshl if flfl itnur J UU mil Will J a //wv ?v www pocket*?out of sight. By no means go to the polls with h pistol buckled outside of your clothing. But go there and do all in your power for the election of our ticket. The Rads will make an effort to induce our Democratic colored friends to an act of treachery. See that our colored friends are not brow-beat. You need have no fears of the marshals as long as you do not hIiow a disposition to Violence. They dare not lay hands on any one who is peaceable. They would be held to fearful reckoning if they attempt any such thing. Democratic Meetiag at Calhoun's Mills. The Democrats will have a rousing big meeting at Calhoun's Mills on Friday, the 3d instant. Hon. Armis:ead Burt, Gen. 6. McGowan, Col. rbos. Thomson, Judge Cooke, Col. Jothian and W. C. Benet, Esq., will iddress the meeting. The ladies are specially invited. Republican Nominations. For Senate--Thos. N. Tolbert. House?W. M. Pope, Isaac White, tV. H. Heard, B. F. Porter, Hannibal kV id email. For Clerk? L. L. Guffln. For Sheriff? C. W. Gutfin. For Probate Judge?T. B. Millford. County Commissioners?Jones, B. Gritttn and L. C. Clay. School Commissioner?Thomas M. Christian. Coroner?A. H. B. Fuller. . Greenwood. The Democrats had a uplendid meeting at Greenwood on Monday night, ien. McGowan made one of his bes*t and at the close of the meet ng an opportunity was offered to those visiting to join. Fifty-seven came brward and enrolled themselves for Hampton and Home Rule. Tlii3 the ieueral said was glory enough for oue iveuing. Red Shirts. We think there is no law prescribing he color of a man's shirt, aud we herefore recommend red as a very ippropriate color to be worn on public lays?election days, for instance. If the people of South Carolina do not edeein the State in the coming contest, it viU be because they are unwilling to use he means necessary to success and bo- .. :ause they are unworthy of the name of > reomen. Tho infamy and outrageous i yranny of Chamberlain, who endeavora { o perpetuate his reign of thievery over J he State, are enough to drive the people i nto desperation. J The managers of election must be { ure to come to Abl>eville and get their nstructions on next Saturday, the 4th nstant. This has been the most favorable alt for cotton picking and )>olitical :anvassing known for many years. ? Maitvti tv annlM. and nhmtnuto bund a ready sale on our streets on \ Monday and Tuesday. i Eaas are scarce at 25centsperdozen. t ro the Deoocracy of Abbeville Uonitf. 1. By unanimous resolution of the Bounty club at its last meeting, a sus- ] [tension of all ordinary employment, is enjoined upon the part of all Demo- j crats in the county, from Saturday evening next, the4th instant, until the closing of the poles, on the eveuiug ol the 7th. 2. A meeting of the county club has been ordered for Saturday, the 4ih instant, to be held iu the court house at ten o'clock a. m.f to which the township clubs are earnestly requested to send full delegations, as matters of im- I portance will be then and there discussed and determined. 3. The Township clubs are request- ' ed to assemble at their usual places of meeting on Monday morning, the 6th instant,at ten o'clock a. m., to hear the reports of their re*|>ective delegates, touching the proceedings of the meeting of the county club, above referred to.

The lines are closing; the scattered battalions are being concentrated ; the issue is gained ; and the day of your deliverance draweth nigh. You have made a brilliant campaign, marred by not a single act of violence. Your zeal and enthusiasm iu a good cause have been beautiful; and to these you have added, even the brighter qualities of endurance. Persevere even to the end The skies were never brighter, nor the hone of victo-' ry more assured. To lose the well earned fruits of all your toil and labour now, that they are within your reach, by any imprudence on your part, would be an act of folly unworthy of you. Wherefore, I exhort you that from now until six o'clock p. m., on Tuesday next, you further Illustrate your devotion, by activity, vigilance, sobriety, prudence and peace. Abbeville will again assert her ancient rijchfc of being styled the banner county of tJie State. J. 8. COTHRAN, Presd't County Club & Chair. Dem. Party, Abbeville Co. Abbeville C. H., 8. C., Nov. 1, 1878. To the PeoPle of the United States, Well founded apprehension that tlie civilization of our btate is In danger of being utterly overthrown, and un overrulingsense ol duly to ourselves, our posterity, and the country ut large, Impel us to make an authentic statement of our actual condition to the American people in the hope tlial it will induce ttiein to extend to us their sympathy and aid In this digressing exigency of our iufairs. There is so much at stake that we cannot atlord to be silent, or to withhold any effort that nitty possibly lie of avail. For teu long weary yenrs the white people of South Carolina have endured a condition of tilings which any Northern .State wouid have been tempted to throw off, in two years, at the point of the bayonet. If it could have been done in no other way. They bore and lorebore, In the hope that some returning sense of Justice or happy stroke of fortune would bring relief. iiut no such sense of Justice stroke came to their relief, and hope sickened and died away in their hearts. At last they determined, as by a common impulse, and a natural and uncontrollable instinct ol freedom, to make one supreme effort for their redemption; but to make It under and within the taw. Those who hold authority here, having through party utQilaiion access to the highest organsoi political powers in the country,und to the equally powerful organs of the partisan newspaper press, have subjected t|ils people to the vilest misrepresentations,and tiie most einniiuM KAmn nf thima we desire to correct. It is not true that ttie white people of South Curolinaure disloyal or disailected towurds the United States government. On the contrary, they are loyal and well attested towards it. They obey It at home, and would defend it promptly lroiu foreign aggresssion. It is not true that South Carolina, or any of its counties, are in a state of insurrection or domestic violence against the government or State; or that law and process cannot be duly enforced withiu her territorial limits ; or that there is any lawful cause or occasion whatever for the Federal government to interfere for the protection of the State government against violence of her itizens. It is not true that the white people of the State are hostile to the colored pcopie or haveany design or disposition to abridge or infringe their political or civil rights. On the contrary, in their conventions, and in the speeches of their candidates, lor six years or more, the most public and solemn pledges have been given that ali the rights of the colored people shall be respected and protected. The colored people shall know that these pledges will I c laithfuily kept. iris not true that the few "rifle clubs" in the state are "combinations of men against the law," or that they are engaged In "murdering some peaceab.e citizens and intimidating others," or that "they cannot he controlled or Huppressed by the ordinary course of Justice." 1 he President bus been deceived. These clubs existed with the Knowledge and recognition of the Governor. Notoneofthem ever acted la defiance ot law, or against the government or constituted authorities. The hostility to them of Governor Chamberlain and bis coadjutors is recent; it is political, and 1b designed to allect the coming election. it is not true that in the recent race collisions the white people have been the aggrossers. Their forbearance, as In the Charleston riot, the unprovoked uiinhoy massacre, and the still more recent assassination of a white citizen In Kdgetleid, had beon wonderful. The truth is that tbo leaders of the colored people, fearing that the day of their power is drawing to a close, have excited their lgnomni dupes, have supplied them with arms, have aroused their leurs for the loss of their liberty, and have thus encouraged them to commit deeds of violenoe. We may also atllrm some things which are true: It Is true that there Is In the State a most active, earnest and excited canvass to overthrow corrupt rule, and re-establish honest tttate government. This is a legitimate and lawful object which should command the sympathy and support of every lover of his country. It Is not treason to defeat Chamberlain, nor is It lnsurrectlou or domestic violence to elect Hampton. It Is true thut while the white rifle clubs ure ordered by the Governor and the Fresi* dent to disband and disperse, the colored militia of the State are allowed to rcmuin in organization and in possession of their urms, and to attend political meetings in military order with rifles and other arms. The objeot of this discrimination is as obvious as is the rvimnnnitiveiv defenseless condition iu which it placet* tbe white population. We simply ask, what would the people of New York or Massachusetts think or do upon a like application of the bayonet policy to tiietn under such circumstances? Fellow-countrymen! We have nought to place before you, brieiiy and in true colors, the oonditlon of South Carolina; the wrongs of her people, their patient foi bearauce, and their new-born hopes. Not long ago Governor chamberlain, in a transport of truthful and genuine enthusiasm, proclaimed to thopeople of the country the siurtiing fact that "the civilization of the Puritan and the Cavalier, i of the Koundheud and HuguenoMs in peril" in .South Carolina. He spoke these words under the Inspiration of bis better angel, fo: truer words fie never spoke. And they are i as true now as tbbn. The peril Is greater now than then; for when the worst and most dc-1 graded elements of society enter into, or control a government, there is too much ronton to apprehend some catastrophe which we hardly dare to contemplate. 8.
