.The Republiean Platform. 1. The Republican party of the .B.eof South Carolina,in convention assembled, believing that the prin of equal civil and political - ghtare vital to the interests of good overnment, and that they can only e enforced by the party which has en afted them upon the State and constitutions, hereby reaffirm thei earnest adhesion to the platform principles adopted by the Na ,eAlual- Republican Convention at Cin ai on the 16th day of June 1876. We reiterate our abhorrence and O#diation of all forms of violence, 'midation or fraud in the conduct Ni(lections, or for political purposes, denounce the same as a crime gainst the liberty of American citi .2ss as well as the common rights of sanafty; and while we insist upon Niwgill zealously guard the right of i .-citizen freely to choose his pO biral party, and deny the unfounded Nirge that- the Republican party _.._&"tenances any interference with colored voters who may choose to otb 1-he Democratic ticket, we do .-apinst and denounce the prac inaugurated i' the campaign of C.6- and again revived in some anties by the Democratic party, of in Republican meetings and eations, -and by show of force and .liforms ofAtimidation disturbing' aiN eetings, or taking part therein liout- the consent or invitation of calling them. . .. e charge the Democratic party _. being unfaithfal to the many ijjdges and promises made during the aqpaign of 1876 as demonstrated by the legislation of the last General As I$I bly, the journals of which show the only pledges redeemed were 'for which the entire Republican of both branches of the Legisla -were cast. We denounce - the Democratic for the frauds, violence and in on committed during the gen V election of 1876; for the assassi o a and murders committed dur .a t -he canvass preceding that elee for the violent seizure of the government after that election; the frauds committed at every I election held since they ob iaihed control of the State ; and for system of intimidation which still :'in many counties, whereby icans are actually prohibit ~Qdrm meeting and organizing, 5K 6 We denounce the Democratic ~t for the outrage perpetrated in ~seatig Republican members of the I~nera1Assembly, 3s6 as to increase tbi ajority in the Legislature, and .s4eeially for depriving the seventeen Republican representatives from Char e?1stoui County of their seats to which Iijhad been elected by over six ~e~tIosad majority; and when elec were held to fill these vacancies ~ harleston, Orangeburg, Beaufort, ~-umter and other counties for refusing s&jiethe Republicans any represen ..t6swhatever on the Commissioners ofElections or the Board of Mana <~ers;for -the frauds committed in ~~~i'management of those elections, ~ articularly for stealing six ballot 22xscontaining Repubhican majorities -iithe county of Sumter, and for re 2~fuingto count the votes cast at Beau ~sfoit and Orangeburg for alleged irreg 21Tarities. on the part of the managers1 ~ appoited by themselves. ~' .We arraign the Democratic par tvfor enacting at the last session of ~ e General Assembly the law where li umerous voting precincts in large JRepublican counties were abolished ~that thousands of Republican voters are' virtually disfranchised or else compelled to walk twenty miles or - rein order to vote, and in some Sp1ces to cross rivers in order to reach apolling place. 7.. While condemning the conduct icall public officeers who may have in d. ears pest violated the trusts confided 'M- 4hem, and whiue denouncing all Sfraudulent and dishonest practices, ands disclaiming any desire to shield any individual proved to be guilty of Sseli offenises, we denounce the method by which the Democratic party, 4through manufactured t e stimi o n y sought to inculpate men whose only 4lfonse was their Republicanism, and - e further denounce the unfair and partisan character of the recent legis lative investigations in this State whereby the frauds committed by Democrats have been carefully screened from public view and all testimony d loking to their exposure has been studiously suppressed. 8. We reaffirm the declaration made from time to time that at the general -election held in this State on the 7th -ar of November, 1876, for Presiden *tial electors, Governor and other State officers Dot only were the Republican SPresidential electors duly chosen, but that Daniel H. Chamberlain, together with the entire Republican State tick et, were also elected by the votes of a majority of the qualified electors of this State. 9. We deem it inexpedient to nom inate candidates for Governor and other State officers, because, owing to the condition of affairs in this State, occasioned by rifle club rule and two years of Democratic supremacy, it is impossible for the Republican voters in many counties, without incurring great personal danger, to organize for the campaign or to vote at the election when held. 10. We pledge ourselves to assist in the work of purifying the public ser *vice, and demand that the local iRe publican conventions throughout the State, wherever they make nomina -tions shall nominate only such candi -dates as are recognized as men of in telligence and integrity as well of Cs tablished devotion to the Republican princin1le Th ne eirald.

On the 22nd instant the most im portant Convention of the Cor'aty will meet, the (5onvention to nomi nate County officers and members of the Legislature. Upon that Con vention depends largely the f"atore welfare of this Cornty. The dele gates will be clothed with great re sponsibility. It is to be hoped that the Convention will be composed of the best and wisest men of the County, of men who have ideas of their own, with the man1iness and independence to stand up and express them, men whose ideas of right and duty are unclouded by fattery and r-iwarped by prejudice. The delegates should go to the Convention to act for the best in terests of the County, not to for ward the schemes of any one man, or clique or section. If the Con vention act wisely and nominate the right kind of ticket that ticket will certainly be elected ; if, on the other hand, a ticket be nominated that is not acceptable to the mass of the Democratic voters, the Republicans and Independents, united together, may bring upon us a most disas. trous defeat, a defeat that world so weaken and diside the party that there is no telling when it would recover. The people appreciate the great issues before them, and we have no doubt that the Nominating Conven tion will be a truly representative body, and that their action will be such as to meet the approval and endorsement of the party at large. The State Conventions. The Democratic State Conven tion did the wisest thing they could do when they renominated the whole State ticket. Governor Hampto,n, undoubtedly, can make a better ran than any man in South Carolina, and he certainly cannot be excelled as a Governor. And it would be impossible to improve the State of ficers. 'Such a ticket will, as in 1876, call out the fall strength and all the enthusiasm of the party. The Republican Convention nomi nated no State ticket. The reason for this course is evident. It is not because they are in love with Hampton or his associates ; for if they had any hopes of success they would infinitely rather see Cham berlain, or Elliott, or Swails, or Smalls, or Patterson, or any other grand rascal in the Gabeinatorial office, surrounded by men of like ilk. But they know they can't beat that ticket, therefore they use the ticket to further their designs upon the Legislatur-e and Congress. Our victory would have been easier had they put out a straight-out Repub lican ticket. The smartest men gress. Men have been nominatec for the latter position; for the for mer we should select men who hav( the confidence of the people ani who will unite the whole Demo cratic party in their support. The Fence Law. Mr. M. D. Kinard, of Williams ton, Anderson Copnty, in a letter t< the HmtD, says that he was op posed to the no-fence law before it adoption, but now thirks it a goo< thing; he thinks, however, that i year should be given to prepare fo: it, so that pastr-es of clover o: grasses corld be prepared for stock Hon. D. Wyatt Aiken, in his ad dress before the mass meeting h2 the Court House, the 5th instant made some remarks on the fenc law that are worthy of considera tioia. He said that the day New berry Couity abolishes the presen fence law she will add half a millioi dollars to her value. Out of twen ty-nine intelligent and successfa farmers that he had talked with oi the subject in Anderson County twenty-eight were in favor of th< change, and say that since the; have obtained fences there has beel great improvements in farming an< stock-raising. The one who wai opposed to the change said befori the abolition of fences he had gooi pasturage for his stock-but it wal on other people's lands. Eighty three pounds of butter have beei sold in Williamston in one day thi, year at ten cents per pound, the re sult of the no-fence law. One far mer in Anderson sends fifty pound a week to Charleston, for which hi gets thirty cents per pound free of al expenses. Since the no-fence law hai been established in A -iderson then has not been a single law.suit ii the County in regard to division o fences. The older farmers say tha the cotton made on the land for merly occupied by fences will pal the taxes of the County. In speaking of TIMPRovED IMPLEVENTS for farming he said that an Agri cvitural Society would be the mean: of introducing these. In this par tienlar we are a hrod&-ed years be hind the North. Muscular forci and horse pow'er there perforn double the labor they do her'e. He saw recently in a Northern State fifty acre field of coin that wouli yield forty bushels per acre, culti vated entirely by one boy and tw< horses.

There is no greater promoter of jus tice - than the expression of public C opinion; and it is a lamentable fact a that those who are capable of giving t it are, either from want of self-confi- f d:ce or indisposition, deterred from a doing so. In either event, what is the f meaning of it? A candid perusal of p the pages of the past history of repub- d lies will give an answer in tones too I stentorian to be mistaken, too trae to t be doubted. The republican form of E government is one in which each indi- p vidual composing it should consider I himself personally responsible for its E defects, and, on the other hand, meri- o torious for its virtues ; it is based up- I on the voice, not the silence of the f people. The contributions to your paper u over the subscription of "Citizen," (on the subject of the coming election,) b is just such an expression as it c is the duty of every one who has the t welfare of his country at heart to make. r All good men will approve of the p sentiments contained in his letters. a The coming campaign-however sure a we may feel as to its results-involves d the most serious consequences. The b spasmodic exertions of a shipwrecked Q party will be no child's play, for how- o ever widely distributed that party has 'I been, there is no cloaking the fact that s the Southern States have been the f "verdant pastures" that sustained its V existence. f We have tried-in the not far dis- j tant past-every experiment conceiv- b able to the ingenuity of man to come o out from under its thraldom. We a have mined against their mines; we f have, by amalgamation, tried to reform t it; we have submitted, acceded, sur- f rendered and in almost every conceiv- o able way compromised our dignity as t a nation ; all of which efforts failed, as they should,'most miserably, and at last we have been compelled to oppose d honor to vice, incorruption to corrup- e tion, intelligence to the most infamous f, ignorance, in order to recover our Jib- e erties. How we succeeded is too ap parently happy to be unknown, and a why we wish a departure from the a principles which brought us success, e too mysterious to be understood. We t will be opposed by all the trickery, in- c famy and rascality that can be brought t to bear by a polluted government, and t it behooves us to meet it with all the t4 honor, intelligence and virtue incident g to us as a people-to meet it without d one missing linr in the chain which a will bind it hand and feet, and con- 14 sign it to that chaotic oblivion which ; it so truly merits. In order to do i this we must lay aside all of har petty e strifes and preferences, and delegate , such from our midst as are most corn- g petent to carry out in word and deed b~ the immortal principles of that plat- d form which in 1876 carried us 'mid i shouts of victory into the possession ~ of the rights and privileges bequeathed r us by an illustrious ancestry. Our community is composed of far- t mers, mechanics, merchants and law- c yers; neither of which has a right to exclusive representation in our halls y of justice, nor to all of the honors and, emoluments at the gift of the people, n but either and all of which are enti- I tIed, not on account of their vocations, Ih but as one of the people to the afore- ri mentioned honors, and the moment in U which we deny any man this privilege a (if he deserves it from a mental and v moral point of view) we uproot the staunchest principle of Republicanism. We should send to Columbia and Washington such men as will present an invulnerable bulwark against all the legions of corruption, and in selecting them we should not slight the qualifi- t< cations of any man on account of his occupation. No man whose moral org political record is tarnished in the k slightest degree should be intrusted with the management of our affairs in a this the most trying hour of the life of our liberties. Remember that dissension is thed material of which empires are con structed. Be warned that those who lead you by the noses into dissensions in a republic, will profit by the change and lead you by the necks into slavery in an empire. The triumphal march (grand ova tion) of Grant is the first step taken-t upon the authority of the great fraud -towards the empire: we should beS very careful to let it be the last. The remedy against it is unity at the bal lot-box, and knowing the remedy we should-if we do not apply it-nott murmur at what will be our just des erts. Carolina has ever been the champion of freedom, and no one part of it claims more honor than is award er ed to Newberry County.

Sinokey Town. The President of Smokey Town i lub wishes me to give my views p 5 to what qualities met, should have n > make good and suitable members i >r the Legislature. I am an old man b ud have been a close observer of events o )r half a century. I remember the ( assage of the Tariff Act of 1828, the y ebates in Congress during Quincy n Ldams' administration. I remember t: be warning the Representatives and p enators from South Carolina gave the D eople of the South..- I remember the rallification Act of 1833, p.-sed by b outh Carolina at the commencement b f Andrew Jackson's administration. 2 also remember the abolition question h rom Wilberforce to Grant. I have a ritnessed many successes and disasters ti p to the present time. . d In looking ver all these events I I ave concluded that our fair Southern b Duntry has not prospered in propor- b on to her soil, climate and various nsources. The South failed in re- 1 ealing the Tariff Aci, and also in the f bolition question, with great disaster n nd ruin to her and a military t espotism set over us. What has si rought all this disaster upon the i outh ? I will answer, by patronizing d ar enemies instead of our friends. h 'he Southern people bought up the t] laves of the North to makse cotton to vi !ed the Northern manufactures, which v ere built up by the Tariff on o )reign goods, for the protection of n Lmerican manufacture. If the South d ad resolved not to sell one single bale k f cotton to the Northern factories u or to buy one single yard of goods h -om them they would oion have come > terms. That is the way our fore thers did in resisting the Stamp Act f the British Parliament, and also C e tax of three pence a pound on tea, d hich they'resisted with so much a ower and honor, and to our indepen ence. As long as we patronize our nemies in preference to our own iends we may expect to be depend ats on them. By paying high taxes for thieves ad extortioners to revel in drunken- ~ ess, gluttony, debauchery and every C onceivable plan and invention to get t Se earnings of the farmer before he t an make another crop. This leaves 0 de country in an iwnpoverished condi- a on, our lands worn out and no means > replenish them, our bpildings and ~ meces in a decayed and dilapidated con ition.

Men who will encourage in- l ustry and enterprise by enacting such t' tws as will protect and encourage the t eople-men who will give their sala- ~ y to pay past indebtedness and to free. :hoo01s, and fight the thieves and ex >rtioners out of officee. Not men who an make the greatest display and ! audy show and eloquence in the ,egislative Halls, or men in our Courts d b ho can screen the guilty murderer's p eck, or the guilty thief from the 8 enitentiary.

' j at FOR THE HERALD. Our Washington Letter. g WASHINGTON, D. C., August 8, 1878. Governor Hendricks yesterday spoke >the Indiana Democracy. The tele raphic extract of his speech of course Lils to do him full justice, but we all now that -the distinguished states an made an excellent speech. He ways does that. I do not know of ay State in which the Democracy ill have better speaking than in In [an, with Hendricks, Voorhees and hers on the stump. Opposition to i return of the latter to the Senate, 'any really ever existed, has disap eared. Governor Hendricks yester ay told his hearers that in voting the lemocratic ticket they were in effect ting for Mr. Voorhees. This ought i add strength to the ticket. TheF ate could not send a more acceptable an to the Senate. The campaign in Ohio, like that in diana, is watched with great inter t by the people everywhere. It is e State of Mr. Hayes, now in the rhite House, and of Senator Thur an, who a great many people believe, E' ill succeed him there. The Senator iters heartily into the campaign, and n effective before the people as he sa as in the Senate during the last ses- is5 on, will not only benefit the Demo-li atic party in the State and the coun- all ybu maeilyavnehs o yerestt meatrl adaen ae hiow terests. Senator Chaffee, in a late bs S. terview. said that Senator Thurman Mr. Manton Marble publishes doeu tents and an argument to show that fr. Tilden was opposed to the princi le embraced in the Electoral Com iission bill. Mr. T. doubtless be eved, as most Democrats did, that the est and strictly Constitutional method f procedure was for both Houses of 'ongr !ss to pass upon the Electoral otes of the States. He seems to have iade vigorous opposition to some de iils of the Electoral scheme, but the apers presented by Mr. Marble do ot prove all that be claims for them.

It only fair to say, concerning the par on business, that but few offenders ave escaped punishment except when ieir cases came before Mr. Hayes rith strong backing. Of course, if he ,ere not a weak man he would carry at his early announced policy of re iaining here all the time, and would isregard the clamor of pardon-bro ers.
