To the People orthe state. The Address of the State Democratic Com The Democratic party has again presented to the country its platform of principles and its candidates for office. The tecord attests the good faith and honesty of both. The platform is a plain and simple assertion of the principles of the Con stitution as it is, and the officials of the government selected from and by the Democratic party are guided by it in the conduct of their offieers. The duties of each officer are prescribed by law, written law, and when they are faithfully performed it is the law that rules and not the individual who hap pens to personate it. Indeed, the faithful discharge of official duty is necessary to this rule of law on which depends the peaceful enjoyment by the people of all the liberty, justice :nd regulated order that their system of government is capaple of affcrding. The honest observance of official obligations is necessary to the main tenance and perpetuity of this govern inent of the people by the people. Should our government of law, faith. fully administered, fail to meet the demands of the people, the mode is plainly prescribed by law for such al teration and amendment as may, from time to time, become necessary. Any stretch of official power, to meet any supposed demand, is, to that extent,the exercise of unlawful or arbitrary pow er, and to that extent destructive of our governmental system-is, in fact, a subztitutioa of personal for official power, which is antagonist to both the letter and spirit of our institutions. However worthy the motive or ur gent the emergency may be, the exer cise of personal power by even the most patrotic officer should be watehed and checked, as it opens the way for. faithless und designing offieials to use the machinery of government for its subversion. It is to maintain these principles in the conduct of the government that the Democracy is arraying its strength for the coming conflict. Whatever may have been the original object and purposes of our great antagonist, the Republican party, however honest and patriotic its platforms and candidates May once have been, it would seem that their organization was cap tured in the hour of their triumph by faithless, self-seeking officials. whose construction of the Coustitu tion as to their powers would have made the Misguided but patriotic old Federalists, against whom Jefferson w-ged war and raised the people in their might, stand agbast with horror. The old ship that was steered through the stormy sea of rebellion without the loss af a spar had barely reached smooth Water when she was boarded by these' pirates and used to plunder and destroy what she was built to pro tect. I~s flag, which was borne with such enduring pluck through the bloody battles of a protracted war, was seized by treacherous hands and made the standard of an arbitrary power in finitely more dangerons to American institutiuns of liberty than the armed array of the world. Under the shadow of its folds the old fortress of the Con stitution was dismantled and its ar manent moved to a "camp outside." Governmental organization was sub ordinated to pt organization. Con stitational power was supplanted by extra-constitutional force, and the mandates of party were subsitutcd for the law of the land. Is it strange that this mode of con *ducting a constitutional government should render necessary the expedients of fraud and force ? The emyloyment of both is a prime necessity to it. It1 'is an impssibility, without infamous betrayal of trust on the part of officials, sustained by the fores of extra con-< stitutional organizations. The practi cal result of all this is a de facto cen-' ( tralized government,. the powers of I *which arc limited only by the discre tion of its officials. Thanks to thes wisdom of the fathers of the Republic the exercise of this discretionary pow er is curbed by obstacles inherent in the matchless system itself which they f framed. The officials through whom the powers of government are operated; aire all, from the President to the'I hummblest muncipal officer, sworn toc support the Constitution and laws of the country, and the extent to which arbitrary rule is practicable, is in pro-d portion to the faithlessness -of theset officials. Where all are true to theirt trusts, it is impossible. Where all aret faithless, arbitrary government is fully equipped with the machinery necessa- I ry for its complete administration.a When,in the recent past, our State gov-. ernment under the control of the Re-. publican party, was converted into an e engine of oppression, degradation and ruin, we were experiencing the full op-. *eration of this centralized government. a The sworn officials furnished by thet Republican party, so far from inter posing the natural obstacles of our govern mental system to the adminis tration of unlawful government, them selves destroyed the barriers of the law, and added their share of arbitrary power to the tide of tyranny that en- g gulfed us all. This method of con- 1I ducting government is the only one m known to tbe Rlepublicans of South b Carolina. Driven well nigh to despair, the f; free-born citizens of the State resolved i to unite their strength in a supreme s effort for relief. They succeeded in restoring the power and authority of I law in the Stat-e, and thereby placedd h:er con a plane with the other States ofi the Uaion. Buxt over them all still 1 laings the centralized government, a dark threat to liberty an-1 an effective d obstruction to the quiet and peaceful d reign of the law. t The people arc again called on to y say which of these modes of conducting c The government shall- prevail. This p *question underlies all questions of a se:re .aliev under the recognized fi ;rincipies of government for the Uni- b led States, the State and the country. a It reaches to the priucipies O4zig ai novernmet in them all is to be onducted. It is the overwhelming tuestion to be settled by the im )eudirg contest, and the issue should >e fairly and squarely made in every tate and County campaign in the [7nion. If this view of the pulitical situa. ion is the true one, the disciplined tand united energies of the Democracy, which will be exerted to establish on i secure basis all that was regained by :heir heroic effort in 1876, should re yeive the support of the entire people. rhey will certainly be sustaibed by .ll in youth Carolina who have the intelligence 't' appreciate the value of the honor of the State and of the UniEdtis to Gi~eiberty, peace and prosperity of the people. JOHN BRATTON, Chairman. South Carolina's lncrease .43 Per Cent. From The News and Courier. The increase in the population of South Carolina during the last ten years, as shown by the census, is most gratifying to the p&yple of~the State. It shows that, making the requisite allowance for omissions in 1870, the State is steadily enlarging its popu lation, and that, as the representation in Congress is in proportion to the population as ascertained by the cen sus, the number of Congressmen from South Carolina will not be diminished. We are quite willing that there should be a recount in South Carolina if it will gratify or satisfy the Radical or gans, and we would make no other condition than that there should be two enumerators for each district, one of them a Democrat and the other a Re publican. We have entire confidence in the substantial accuracy of the the census, though it shows an enor mous increase, and we have no desire to claim credit for a larger population. than the State has. According to the returns made to us of the results of the late census, the population of South Carolina is as follows: 1880. 1870.

Our readers are not interested in know ing when all the meetings are to be held, and we give only those in this and neighboring counties: Columbia, (the first meeting) Sept. 7th ; Union 15th; Newberry 17th; Laurens 18th; Abbeville 20th; Edgefield 22nd; Lexington 23rd closing up with Columbia Oct. - .

The purchasers save by this decision over half a million. Col. Jno. R. Abney, of Columbia, the Solicitor of the Fifth Circuit, left the 16th instant, for Europe. He will visit the German Universi ties and will divide his time between studying and traveling. Before he retuns he intends to "do" the whole of Europe. He expects to be absent a year or two. Col.

Weaver, the Greenback candi date, is the most "confident" man out. He - was confident that he wuld carry Alabama, but the Dem ocrats carried it by 75,000 majority.

Our Washington Letter. .WAsiIINQTOQN, P. C., Aug. 19th, 1880. The reports at Democratic head quarters here last week are all of one kind-all honorable. This is especial ly true of those from Indiana, in whicb St4te 1Republicans early in thei season had hopes of Democratic dis sension. In Maine, the Republicans are making a more thorough and vig orous canvass there against the Denm oerats and Greenbacikers, bat a well informed Democrat writes to General Walker, that Senator Blaine's Cam paigni tactics, always discreditable, fail this year to re-ceive endorsement from even some of the extreme Radi cals. T?he nymbep of' Conservative speakers in saine from other States is heig constantly. insreased. The gentlean referred to above, says the vote in opposition to the R~epublicans will be increased from .last year, when it.- lacked only .a few of 70,000, and was over 1,000 greater than the lie publican vote. From New York, the Committee receives fewer letters than from many other States, but all unite in predicting a majority as high as 40,000. A Washingtonian who has just re turned from a tour through Vir ginia, says all the 'troubles in - that Beate will be settled. Ije talked with General Mahone and other prominent Democrats in both wings of the party, and found them generally willing to adopt any measxi-es necssary to give the StatE to Hancock~ In short, nothing discouraging is heard here. There are a few comn plaints that in some States the Com-. mittes are not forcing the fighting, but that cansc for faiut-nnding will not last long. The reported death of lHon. Proctor Knott, and dangerous injuries to Hon. Hleister Clymner were received v.rith a good deal of feeling here. No two Democratic Congressmen are more popular -in Washington than they, and few deser-ve better of the party.

All undertakings, especially those in the manufacturing line, are always attended with trouble and risk, h6nee the reason why so many capitalists who have never embarked in this line of business are afraid to ve.nture. In the South capitalists heretofore, have been altogether agriculturists and: to some extent commercialists. They have always been averse to man ufacturing in this State. on the ab surd ground that it conflictpd with the interests of an agricultural people a6d 'ad a tendency to prevent 'the principles of freedom in the free white citizens. In these views the Southern people, while slavery ex isted, were educated, and it has only been since the emancipation of slav ery has seen and felt, that a diversity of industries has. been contended for as inseparably conected with the pros perity of a nation. What is bred in the bone is hard to get out of the flesh; therefore as our people have become indoctritated with the raising of cotton to the ex elusiou of wheat, corn and oats ; so it was and is yet to iuvesting in manu factures of no matter of what kind. Oh ! say doubting Thomases'-It won't do! It won't pay ! and then follow the old habit of corn in the one end of the bag and a rock in the other. Occasionally out of the great mass may be found one with a little capital who has the nerve to embark in in vestment in manufacturing, who is willing to meet the risks attendant, and in general is successful. On the principle that ay man is a benefactor who makes two blades of grass grow where only one grew be fore, so it is with the man who opens up a szaanufacturing establishment in the South. Hie is a benefactor, a progressor. a friend to his section. It is the introduction of a new industry, giving employment to men of busi ness, and throwing into the midst of the peopl.: articles essentia!ly requisite without having recourse to foreign markets for the same. But a few days ago we called in at the establishnment of Butler & Ander son, ne-ar the Depot, and by some cir cuitous circumstanc9e got. into a fur niture establishment which we were told was rgn by D. M. Ward, under the superintendence of Bennett. We admit we were surprised at the large amount of pieces of furniture, for bureaus, chairs, bedsteads, mouldings, brackets, piled up around; the ma cinery; and 'the number of hands employed. If 'we had not been in formed, we would have sworn some Northern or Eastern man had bolstered up his courage and come down here to open up something new. In his store room he has M.50 bed stead fram'es, besides chairs, bureaus, and in his shop enough pieces pre pared ti finish off 300 more bedsteads, with a large number of bureaus, &c.
