'Kontherii Democrat lor President Some patriotic Northern people, patriotici ly suggest at regular intervals, a Southe "Democrat for President," which suggests is au empty honor that they have not t slightest intention of conferring. Our Nort em friends have not yet learned that we the South area free people, anil, with all t Impudence that it is possible to concei\ they propose to interfere with our politic affairs in reason and out of reason. In ISte they concluded to take the Southe vote for the Republican party. Toaccomplli this they enacted laws by Congress and se armed soldiers dowu here to aid Id transft ring political power to the Republican pari) When tl)e Republicans In South Carolii had stolen nearly everything in sight, tb they conld get their hands on, and when tl Government of the State bad become a stem Id the nostrils of decent people everywhei the white people of South Carolina rose their might aud hurled the theives from poi er. In 1??3, it seems that the ('tilted Stat Courts are called upon by our own people restore "the day of good stealing." There not a man of intelligence that does not krio thai the war on the registration law is an ? fort, which, if successful, will result in r storing the reigns of government to the n groes. Now, all this talk of a Southern Democri for President, at a time when the heavens an the earth are being moved to overthrow hoi est government in South Carolina, i? nothlt more nor less than an eftort to divert attei tion from the vital issues or home rule an decent government. Let our Northern friends, or enemies n< try a transparent trick. Let them demand Southern Republican, if they are honest I their desire 1or a Southern man, and it the are extra honest, let them demand tbat tt Southern man be a negro, and the bigge tbief in all the land. There would be some consistency in an ope and bold demand of this sort. But away wil the shabby trick of talking of a "Soutbei Democrat," when they mean a dirty Repu licau. Haudsoine J'lajf.
