The name-* of several prominent
cili/.eus in different sections of the
State 1 ave been suggested as suitable
persons for ilie Democratic candidate
It,i Clovcruor. Rut it is much easier,
to select ami surest lit and cempetent
persons for the p >sition that ?L is to
elect them, and now that the Demoeaalio
Iriends of (lovernor Chamberlain
have so well succeeded in creating
a (li\isou in the Democratic ranltB that
it is the boast of the Republican parly
'nthe Stale, it will he yet more dillicult,
ami lor which reason, if none
other, the very nicest euro should be
taken by the Convention to make
such a nomination as will tend with
the greatest certainty to unite the
party ami bring to the polls every.
Democratic vole. To this eml all
personal and sectional preferences
should ho laid aside.
\\ c notice that Col. Dudly, in the
Marlboro Planter, expresses himself as j
having too high a regard and profound j
rcsp< 11 lor (ieuei al Hampton to wish)
him the candidate ol tin- Straight-out
Democratic party, for ho wonId certainly
la* heal. Well, perhaps lie:
would he lieal, hut it he was we cannot
f-oe that, it would, under the puliation,
in the least injure (Jen. Hampton's
popularity and influence for tuture
usefulness, while wo heliovo the nomination
old Sen. Hampton will hriug out
a stronger vole than would the nomination
of any other man in the State* |
In this we may lie mistaken as to other
sections of the State, hut we are
quite sutnlied that his nomination
would hring out the whole vote ol
this county, and that too, as no other
candidate can doit. ;

The Hamburg- Verdict. i
At length I ho .Jury of inquest, on '
the "Hamburg massacre" on the 2'.)ih
olt. rendered their verdict. The official
report and verdict have not yet been <
made public, as IVinco II*vers, tin.* 1
Trial Justice, soon alter the verdict 1
was romlorid was summoned by tidegraph
to Aiken and took the papers
with him, refusing to let a reporter ot i
the Augusta Chronicle see the verdiet '
only lor a moment.
Sonic of the jury stated to the reporter
of tho Chronicle that seven t
persons, viz: '
Messrs. John lbi l lor, K. J. I fuller, :
Harrison lfuiler. Tlioiuan lluiler,
Henry lielsmi, John Trunin* and John
Swcaringen --are charged with murder
in tho verdict, while ahout ninety
others, including sivly front (Georgia, 1
are charged with being accessories |

Mo mention was made in tho report
or verdict of tho killing of Mr. Merri ,
wot her, ihe young white man, and tho '
first that fell in tho conflict, slain by 1
tho negroes. ,
This Prince Rivers says, was in j
consequence of Merri wether's body i
being taken Irom the state and inter- 1
red in another state, and no otlieial no '
lificatinn In ing given to a proper oliiecr
in South Oar dina of his death. (
It is not known yet whether Prince |
Hirers has or in'eiuls issuing uanants 1
for the arrest of ihe parties implicated. 1
From tho slow length with which this (
investigation has boon dragged out and \
tho hot haste with which official i t - j
ports, that were not oflicial, were '
rushed into circulation it mav well ho
presumed that tin* present status of tin* ,
case, with the official reports now in i
circulation, wili hotter serve the politi '<
cal purposes of the Republican parly 1
than an investigation bol'oio the
Courts. i
A Fact that is Ki.oquknt.?Less j
than two years ago Samuel .1. Tilden i
was elected Governor of New York, j |
It was the year after the panic. The i |
people felt poor and they demanded a ]
reduction of expenses of the govern*
in cut. The taxes for 1871 were 8lG,- j
000,000. The taxes for 1870 are, (
$8,000,000. There is no humbug, no i
sham, no false pretense *ih< ut thai, i
It is ono of those solid, substantial I
facts which touch the pocket, and in- I <
flnence the judgmeut of ev< ry eili/.eii j
ot every community in the State, lor j I
every man is a taxpayer. 1 s

The following statement made hy

figures when compared with the expenditures

Trotn these figures, the ueeiiraey of
which will not be ipiestioned, it appears
that the increase in these four |
items ot expenditure since 1800 has]
been over eighty three millions ot dol- j

House attempted to cut ? !)' about 42

TIk* Significance of Kadim! haw.
The Kepublioan party is a party ol
revolution. It started with tho doetrine
ol a "higher law'' o( morals than
the llible, and a "higher law" of civil
government than the Constitution and
laws ol the United States. In its
whole career it has disregarded all
Constitutional limitations to its exor
cise ol power. It has pushed aside all
legal obstacles in the way of iih naked
and aggressive will. To carry forward
its policy ol sectional greed, ambition
and hate, it has not scrupled to
use "necessity, the tyrants plea."
And it. has, by construction of tho
"general welfare" clause in tho Constitution,
obliterated all its cautiously
trained and carulully guaided grants
of powt r Irmn the States, ami assumes
lor the central government in its bands
absolute authority over all rights and
interests. It has adopted grave
amendments of the Constitution by
trail 1. It has i?.ii?.lrn<l tbn
I ? ~
Court of the United Status to socuro
paiti/.an decisions on groat fundamental
questions. It has by violence overthrown
tho governments of StaleH
elected by the people and reinforced
its strength in Congress. It has pas
Bed and employed unconstitutional
laws to arrest, harrass and imprison
the people obnoxious in politics. It
has abused tho power of legislation to
plunder 'lie peopl? of the Union by a
thousand iniquitous hills of appropriation
for tho benefit of rings ol its partisans.
Vet, with tho history of its
lawless course beforo tho country, it
shrieks lor law. And its agents and in
struments in South Carolina prate
about "the awful majesty of the law."
What is tho meaning and effect of
, t I - -
liiu ia\v, as it exists and is administered
in this Slate? Us end is confiscation.
It is an easy method ol robbery,
with protection for the band of Radical
plunderers. In tho merciless dis- ,
poilment ol the people, through the
id venturers sent here, in a spirit of
rapacity and animosity, to use the j
political power conferred on the nc- i
4 re, tho infamies of the Republican <
party have culminated in their law 1
ind its administration. And it seeks 1
,o bind us tor the sacrifice it lias do ,
jreed, with the withes and willow i
oids ol its Negro-Radical law. Laws, '
10 called, for such purposes, and ad- '
ninistered hy such characters, are to ;
loutish over us. We are to consider ]
uir bauds tied and to suffer tho mar- s
yrdom to go on merrily and cheerfuly
1\ rehaucu the Radical bayonet
ms compelled. With the advent of a
Jeinocratic administration, if "the
upine and roguery of a thieving set of <
Suite officers" lasts, tho people ol '
South Carolina will deserve to bo de.
ilroyeil. Rut we opine and make *
jo hi to express the opinion, that car>etbng
robbery will cease and the peoilu
will have peaco. Tho lawless
eign of thu3e outlaws will go out.

hmi. IJutlcr's Reply to Got. Ciiuinhclain's
Letter to Senator Robertson.
[Ktlgefield Advertiser.] /
Euufiki.d, S. C., July 21, 1876.
To the Editor of the N. Y. Herald.
1 have just read Gov. Chamberlain's *
aney sketeh ?>t the '"Hamburg Horror,"
aldrcssed to senator Robertson, at ,
tVashington. After a few rhetorical a
lourishes, his Excellency says: Such
ids call tor condemnation and punishm
ill." 1 eniirely agree with him, and
t lie does not take steps at once to j
lavethem condemned and punished, 'j
ie should i>c hurled from the position t
vlnch his imbecility disgraces. 1 have
ecu the object and target of Radical 1
nulignii y, ami assigned a position in
nis aflair similar to that of Sitting c
bill in the Cuater massacre. I have
?een slandered and traduced by the
lovernor's Minissaties lor doing nolh* .
i.g more than my very plain and
imple duly, and 1 now challenge him
o begin his legal investigation. He
mows my fsdence, and he knows
hat the presence of U. S. soldiers is
lot necessary for my arrest, or that of *
my other white man who was at I Iainuirg,
And before that investigation
loses, it 1 do not show that the lie;rocs
were the aggressors, and the
whites not to blame, that the cmisariea
of his Excellency were the in?ti
;ators ot ilie riot, and that his ap?oinlees
could have prevented and
lid noi prevent it, that the company
ailt-d militia was not militia, but a
and oi rioters and highwaymen,, and 1
hat tic is responsible lor it?il I do
iot show ali lIds, and show besides a j
condition oi affairs at Hamburg
ndcr a Radical government pretend- 2
iig to be civilized, which would almost
lisgrace ilie purlieus of a Cotnassee ^
e> ilenient, 1 will undertake personally
o answer tor the death ot every man
while and black, who tell in that riot.
No man knows better than Governor
diainberlain that what be stales in
hat coinmuiiicuiioti to Seator Robert- ^
on is ialso in ? vei y essential particular. ,ai
\'o one knows belter than himself that "c<
in lias publisbnl it in the bloody-shirt ',utragu
interest. Rut no ismtsr ^
diether he has or not, I make him . ft
ery piaotioal proposition, nndAsaAo// U
ot evade it.
High sounding phrases eoch as ho M
adulges in, are better suited to another,
la ol our history, when people were
ore prono to be influenced by a sickly
eiuirocntality, when liudicul cant and
%
liadical falsehood had larger and more
willing and attentive audience#. Tho
American people arc becoming emin.
ently practical, almost prosy in their
pursuit v?! facts.
"As you aptly suggest in your editorial,
"The Governor's cam|^krii I
lhetorij is another'jilting. Lot
hunt up the eiiminnls concerned and E
punish them. It as he says the whites'
of South Carolina reprobate tl o outrage,
let too Governor test iln-ir indignation
by punishing tho offenders."
The rhapsodies ot a partisan politician, E
fatally bent on perpetuating his per- Sj
sot ml supremacy and tho power ol .'tis I
party, is one thing, and the manly
discharge of duty by tho Governor of
a whole State, in the interest ol all, is
another, llis Kxcellency has chosen
the role ol the partisan, at the expense E
ol his official responsibility, and il ho 1
does not make good his oath ol office, E
to see thai the laws are executed, let
him stand a confessed charlatan who
would gamble wi4.l1 the dearest rights
of the people ot tffe commonwealth,
