r Chamberlain's Reply to Colonel Haskell.-He Describes the Edge field Meeting. In response to Colonel Haskell's invitation to himself and the nom inees upon the Republican State tick et to attend the Democratic mass meetings which are being held in succession in each county in the State, Mr. Chamberlain says that'he has informed the chairman of the Re publican State Committee thaL he shall be ready as soon as his official engagements will allow to meet Gen eral "Hampton at any suitable points in the State in mass meetings to be called by both parties for the pur pose of joint discussions, upon terms of perfect equality in all respects of the political issues now before our jeople. He then states the issue between him and the Democratic Executive Committee, reviews the events of the last two years, quotes from the Newa and Courier an estimate of his re form successes, parades the Radical platform and pledges, goes over the "Whipper and Moses matter, and be rates the Democrats for inaugurating a contest in the State, instead of tak ing him and Radicalism as their all sufficient portion. He goes on to show, from personal observation and experience, that meetings where Democrats have been presumptuous enough to attend were not as agreea ble and peaceful as they are alleged to be. And at this point he gives the following account of the Edge field meeting : As I have already stated, during the months of July and August I made a canvass of a number of the counties of the State. The object of this canvass, which was conducted almo.it wholly under my own auspi ces, was, first, the advocacy of the election of Haye3 and Wheeler, and, second, and more especially, a de fense of my own course as governor and an appeal to the republican par ty to stand by the cause of reform in the coming State convention. It was not a general party canvass under party auspices. The meetings were called'at my request or suggestion and for the purpose of hearing me upon the question chiefly of reform in the State. MEETING AT EDGEFIELD. Under these circumstances I went, on the 12th of August, to address a republican meeting at Edgefield Court House. This meeting had been call ed by the chairman of the republican party of that county, at my instance, and as rumors had repeatedly reach ed me that the meeting was to be in some way interrupted oy the demo crats, I invited one or two republican speakers to accompany me. Hon. Robert Smalls, member of Congress from the 5th district, also accompanied me. WTe reached the Court House at 9 o'clock in the forenoon. Almost immediately upou my arrival I found the town rapidly filling with mount ed white men, who signalized their arrival in town by riding rapidly through the streets and uitering al most continuously the shout or cry which you must pardon me for de scribing by its familiar name, as the " rebel yell"-a sound to which my ears were well accustomed in Virgi nia twolve years ago. By ll o'clock this crowd of mounted white men -numbered, I judged, five or six hun dred at least. Command of these men was apparently formally assum ed at the public square bv General M. C. Butler and General M. W. Ga ry, and they proceeded to the grove where a stand had been erected by the republican committee for the ppeakers. I should mention that at about 10 o'clock several white gen tlemen had called at my hotel and asked that democratic speakers should be heard at our meeting. I answer ed that we had several republican speakers present who would require the whole day if they all spoke, but I suggested that these gentlemen should see the republican county chairman, and stated that I would personally consent to any arrange ment they might make with him. The chairman being engaged in pre parations for the meeting did not meet these gentlemen and no arrange ment was made. At ll o'clock I left the hotel and froceeded to the grove. On arriving found the mounted white men who had assembled in town, with a large number of other white men, occupy ing one entire half of the space around the stand, and one end of the stand already broken down by the white j men who had -crowded upon "it. I stepped upon the stand in company with Judge Mackey and Senator Cain, the republican county chair man. Simultaneously General But ler and General liary mounted the stand with a number of their follow ers. The white men vociferously cheered General Butler and General Gary as they appeared upon the stand, and the speaking was actually open ed by General Butler, who returned his thanks to his followers for their presence and their tribute to him. He was followed, in response to deaf ening calls from his party, by Gener al Gary, who announced in emphatic and plain terms that they-he and his party-had come there to be heard, and that they should be heard; that the radical leaders had failed to make any arrangement for a division of the time in speaking, but that he and his friends should be hear " with or without our consent, and he add ed, with great significance of tone and manner, that "if any trouble took place in consequence the re sponsibility and consequences would be upon the radical leaders." Du ring all this time no republican had been allowed to spe?.k. A glance at the crowd of white men who by this time covered the stand and swarmed around nearly three sides of it, be shies climbing into the trees above our heads, all, so far as I could ob serve, heavily armed with pistols, displayed in many instances on the front of their persone, and even he?d in their hands, convinced me thai any attempt to refuse the demand made, or even to abandon the meet i'g. would result in collision and bloodshed between thc parties. I therefore advised Senator Cain that we had no alternative but to yield to the demand, and after a moment's con sultation I announced that we would divide the time, giving a half hour each to three speakers from each par ty. Senator Cain then proposed to call the meeting to order and to an nounce the speakers, out General Ga ry declared that they wanted no chairman, and accordingly I stepped forward, under these circumstances, to addre?-the,-meeting. -From the beginning to"the end ofmy half hour1 I was mterrwea tv the crowd of white men w?Kjeer? an? insults of every kind. l\?ce auring my re marks the confus^ anj interruption was so complete th\after vainly ap pealing to the crowdy* h1]ow me t0 be heard, General BatL ^ ?e. cency to come forward ^?j g0 far re store order as to barely p^mit me to resume my remarks. Of t.e WQ0le half hour allotted to me I ct,?ainiy was not permitted to occupy over twenty minutes with any remaps such as I should naturally have inaa> on such an occasion. In truth I spoke under great constraint and a con sciousness that any word might precip itate a bloody collision, which I had no means "of preventing or controll ing. I was denounced hy voices from the crowd as a companion thief with McDevitt; was told I would never come to Edgefi?ld again ; was charg ed with getting up the Hamburg riot to kill the white people, excite the north and get United States troops to carry the election, and with a va riety of other crimes of which these are but specimens. J I was followed by General Butler, who occupied his time without inter ruption. His speech was exceeding ly violent and bitterly personal to wards me, on account principally of my report of the Hamburg massacre. Judge Mackey followed General But ler and he in turn was followed by General Gary. Nearly the whole ot General Gary's speech was directed against mer In bitterness and vio lence of personal abuse. I have cer tainly never heard or known its par allel. Nothing short of a verbatim report could give an idea of its char acter. His attacks were not confined to my official character, but extended to my personal life and affairs, with frequent threats against me personal ly in various contingencies. Judge Mackey next occupied about fifteen or twenty minutes in replying to some of General Gary's personal charges against m.. and he was fol lowed by General Butler. What I have nov/ described occu pied the time from a little after eleven until half-past 3-a fact which will give an idea of the time consumed by the interruptions of which I have spo ken. At half-past 3 I left the grove in order to reach th? Columbia train, at Pine House, the same evening, amidst a torrent of jeers and yells which continued to reach my ears without cessation until I had passed beyond the limits of the towt The meeting, though called and arranged for in every particular by the repub licans, was at no time and in no sense under our control ; only two of the six republican speakers from abroad who were present were permitted to speak at all, and under the pressure of the white men who crowded upon it the entire platform was brought to the ground before I left the scene. At this meeting the republicans were told in the most emphatic terms that the democrats h?.d made up their minds to carry Edgefield county and that they would carry it ; that their leaders would be held to account per sonally; that the white people.must and should rule the county. The whole meeting maybe justly describ ed as a torrent of abuse of me person ally, and an exhibition of force and threats designed to intimidate the colored voters and their leaders. Af ter we had reached the train, at the several railroad stations in Edgefield county, a number of the armed and mounted men who had attended the meeting at the Court House entered the car in which we sat, and, with rude and threatening manners, ad dressed their jeers and insults to Ganara] Smalls and myself, especial ly warning us not to come to Edge field again. I will add that the foregoing ac count of the meeting at Edge field has been made from written memoranda made by me while on my way to Columbia and after my arrivai at homo the same evening. Nothing has been overstated, though much that was disgraceful has neces sarily been omitted in this description. Sheriff's Sale. STATE OF SQUTH CAROLINA, EDGEFIELD COUNTY. Iii Probate Court.
