SMITH ft JAYNES.| "rn uiisDA^Yr^??yn^ri89^r_ Tho Coming Campaign Promises to bo to tho people a moans o? education in Stato politics. Hy reference to nnothor column it will bo soon that tho summer campaign, and activo canvass of tho Stato under tho auspices of tho De mocratic Executive Coinmittoo, will om braco nearly two months, beginning at Greenville, Juno lo, and closing at Wal tcrbovo, August 5. Tho candidatos wi li pay their respects lo the Democracy of Oconeo at the meeting for .Juno li?, at Walhalla. Already Mr. Tillman has opened his campaign and made two speeches, at Ridgeway and Anderson respectively. At Ridgeway ho was mot in debate by Col. Yoemans; al Anderson by Attorney General Karie. It is probable that Mr. Tillman, as well as all other Democratic candidates, will follow tho programme mapped out by tho Executive Commlttoo. This will in sure a mil and free discussion of all tho live issues in state policies in every county before the election of delegates to tho State Convention. This is as it should he, and it cannot but have the wholesome offoot of enlightening the public mind more and more on matters pertaining to an honest Democratic go vernment. What wo want is a campaign of educa tion in governmental a liai rs, anti when once tho great body of the Democracy in South Carolina have heard a free and honest discussion of the various issues in State polity which now threaten to divide, wt; believe that thoir good judg ment will approve of the men ?ind mea sures which will ilo most to insure an honest Democratic government, whether Mr. Tillman should be nominated ami elected Govornor or sonic oilier mau ?it present unknown and unsung. Thus far there is no other avowed can didato for Governor in tho field, bul it will hardly he so much longer. We ex pect to see ono or more other candidates on the hustings when the hall is opened at Greenville, .lune io. Thc way is clear for any man in the State who aspires to gubernatorial honors lo declaro his can didacy, stump thc State, ami submit his Omi m s lo tho Democratic State Conven tion. 'Tis (rue this is a rather novo! road in South Carolina fora man to travel to the Governor's mansion, but it is none Hie worse foi- thal, lt has been and is a common way in other States. There are now live candidates for Govornor in Ala bama. They are now canvassing Cu s?ale and each will lake his chances before tho Democratic Stale Convention. Thc nominee will then receive .he support ol' tho party, ami thus Hu- Democracy will present a solid front to thc common ene my. Such let us hope w ill he the happy result in South Carolina, whoever may be chosen as the standard 'n-ari-r of the Democracy. Ile may not bo the mau thal would sui! all of our personal pre ferences, yet let there be no breech ol' party fealty. Cha rlestou. The crowded stale of our columns last, week prevented us from doing more than calling attention lo Hie fuel Hint the Southern and Slate Press Associai ions had been in session in Charleston, mak ing moulton only of (he salient features of tho occasion, ami omitting td together any reference lo the splendid banquet tendered to these bodies hy the liberal and hospitable citizens of thal city. The. Association had ample lime for the transaction of all business hoforc il, which included au interesting discussion as ttl the best methods of conducting tho press of tho Stale. Thc social features of the occasion wore mosl enjoyable, ?md we are satisfied thal it will hear good fruit in all lui ure contests, w hellier politi cal or otherwise, that may hereafter arise in tho Stato. Through the liberality of the people of Charleston, whose kindness and courtesy have passed into a proverb, the members of holli Associations enjoyed a bout, riile around Hie harbor, a drive through Hie eily and a visit to Summer ville. The most interesting subject io us, however, is the ol?orl now being made to place <'harleslan om e more in the front rank ol' the Important ami prosperous cities of the South. The terminal facili ties of the city an- lo he greatly improved by building <>r extending thc railroads into the city ami as la South as thc hat tory, which would include all tho wharves, llcrclofore the drays have moved the freight ami products of the soil between Hie railroad depots ami the wharves ami vier, rnwf. This ?m?nense dray age has liol only I.II a hurdensoino tax on the trade of the country, hut is foo slow of motion for Hu- presen! meth ods <d handling lim increased volume of business. To remedy this evil il is pro posetl to run the ears lo (he water's edee, and we hope thc enterprise will succeed. Charleslon during Die las! thirty yon rs has lost her prestige and much of lier trade. The Slate has ie- otttlol lo Ihe West, and commerce has drifted ind. other channels. Savannah, Noifolknnd lither cities have prospered a! Ihe ex pense uf our chief city, ll is confidently stilted that connection with thc West can be made through ibo Louisville and Nash ville system of railroads: thal the Owners Ol thal system will purchase the South Carolina Railway, and lillis willi their other connel l ion.-, pour much of the trade of (hal section into Charleslon. Tho Charleston, Cincinnati and Chicago Railroad is also being built from Camden lo the. West. The Haslem lormhlUH ol' this road ought lo bo in Charleston, but there is unfortunately some uncertainty as tow hero tl will finally he. There aro other oduablo railroad connections, in tho State, anti out of ?it, that aro in Ibo grasp of Charleston, if she would Ihlow off hor lethargy and enter tho advanced commercial arena with her old lime en ergy and off edi veness. She lias the means ami can in a mensuro help her self in this emergency. Her foi tunes are of consequence io thc entire State Charleston is our chief commercial eily. Every man in Ihe State wants lo see her prosper. She ought lo regain her irado and become more prosperous than ever before. Wo believe she can do so. W e believe Hit! opportunities arc now pro Rented tending to this dosirnbi consum mation, and in the cud Ihe city of Char biston will regain her commerce and ho thereby placed on the high road to pros perity and a merited renown. Tito Leapliart CASO* Tho dovol?pinonia ia litis caso during tho past wcok have boo? highly sonsa? ttonah Tito verdict of ibo Coroner's jury was "that Willio Loaphtirt came to Iiis <h\ith hy gunshot wounds inflicted by parties unknown." This was tho verdict, notwithstanding tito sherill' and his wife testified that tltey recognized certain persons among tito lynchers at the jail Sunday morning, when Leapliart was shot to death. On Tuesday afterwards, Gov. Richard son, tis if just awakened from his Rip Van Winkle sleep, made public the allidavit Oil willoh tho respite was granted. This affidavit was made hy ono W. J. Miller, a Deputy United States Marshal, anti was to the effect that no outrage hail been committed upon Rosa Cannon, according to her own confessions made in certain alleged letters which she had written to her mother, anti which Miller swore he had seen. This aflldavitwas Ititi away in tho archives of the Governor's ofHcc from April 12th to May (?th, when if it had been made public at lust the falsity thereof could have been established in a ?lay, just as it luis since been done, and I.capbait would have Buffered death at tho hands of tho lawful authorities in stead of a passionate mob, and Lexington county would md have broken her record ?ts a law-abiding community. Rut a most unfortunate termination for all parlies COUCorncd wits pul to the existence of I.caphart, ami the Olid of the troubles In cited by bim ?tie nut yet, The alleged letters of Rosa Cannon t?? her mother have been pronounced for geries, and the said W. .1. Miller was ar rested on tin; charge of forgery uti the 7th instant. (1. T. Graham, Esq., tho at torney who defended Leapliart and nb tallied the rosplto on the Miller allidavit, wits arrested on the Sth instant for for gery ami subornation of porjury, after Hoeing from Lexington to Columbia for fear of being lynched. He was released on bail in th?; sum of $1,000. Miller attempts now to doll y his Hist allidavit anti seeks to pose as the tool of Graham in the matter, ami has mad?! a later allidavit in willoh he says thal Io was 11 ru nk when he signed the Hist, ami had no knowledge of what it contained.

He sought io lake refuge from his climes behind his commission as Deputy United Status Marshal, ami accordingly suetl out a writ of habeas corpus before Judge Simonton, of the District Court, hy whom he hoped to he released; but nt tho hearing of the return to the writ at ( har Icston last Saturday, .1 inigo Simonton hold that while ho was charged with forgery, committed without tho palo of his duty as Deputy Marshal, he would have to answer for his crime hoforo the Court of Session's of Lexington County, and accordingly remanded Miller lo the Sherill', ami he is now eonlined in Rich land ( 'minty jail in obedience lo t ho order of Judge Kershaw. Tb roo of the lynchers have also been arrested. Attorney (lencial Earle went to Lexington last Thursday and had war rants issued for thc arrest of V. C. Caugh ninil, Pearce Taylor ami A. Marks. They have been arrested and are now in Lexington jail, awaiting trial on indict ments for murder. Registration.

Tillman, of ridgefield, and Col. Marie, of Sumter, were III An derson, in battle array, oil Saturday last. Thc Columbia lie?f?Stt?l' gives the following report of their speeches : AN?liUKO.V, .May ll?.- -About 1,000 persons were present al tho Tillman meeting to-day. As the crowd began to gel settled around thc stand ami as tho speakers and reporters were taking, their places, some one cried out : "Three clu er for Marie," which was followed with a whoop. Three cheers wore then given for Tillman ami then three cheers for thc Straight oil I Democracy. The Young America Cornet Hand discoursed some music, after which Mr. A. C. Lattimer called the meet ing to order. Rev. C. IS. Smith was requested lo open it with prayer, which ho dui. This e.;;.: about I Lilli. Captain 1?. li. Tillman was then in troduced to the audience by the pre siding ollicor. After leisurely arranging some manuscript and newspapers ?m Un heard he began : "It gives mc pleas ure to meid the citizens of any county of South Carolina and see (hem, and let them look me in the eyes, fir eye, foi' I have got but one eye. After what you have seen in the papers I am sure you aro surprised to learn that this little, insignificant fellow is Ibm Tillman. I have some peculi arities. I write with my left hand. All you've seen in the papers as coin ing from mo has been written with this left paw. Another peculiarity is, I have only 0110 eye and I will tell the (ruth. I have said some hard ihings, but that is necessary in all reforms. What I have said has been in scif-dofoilfiO. I am here tts a can didate for Governor. I am herc as mi exponent of tho principles repre sented by thc Farmers' Movement. Ile then went on lo discuss tho necessity for thc March Convention, ami said ho f*\va?( responsible for its bott'.g oaHo<t." ' lio ?spoke of ins can vass two years ago with Governor Richardson and referred to tito elec tion of delegates to the State Con vention, and said tho ringsters had tho convention bottled up in their breeches pockets. Ile also spoke of the amendment to the Constitution, two years ago, as a trap to catch tho farmers in. Ho said the change was a dani nable plot. J warned thom that the fanners would interest thom in 181)0. Ile said the State Demo cratic Executive Committee had mapped out thirty-live meetings, nt which lie was expected to be. Ile said: UI hope they will meet mo there." A voice from the crowd : "They'll never do it." Captain Tillman : "Don't you bo too sure of it. Don't holler until you get out of the woods. I don't, 'h. il 1er." Ile spoke of thc cry of splitting the party, and finally came to the meeting at Ridgeway, and explained why he withdrew. He then went over pretty much tho same ground as covered at Ridgeway. Dc de nounced the free schools as miserable humbugs, and said we should stop work on the Stale House. It would take nearly a million dollars lo finish it, and we could not afford it and live in our buts. Capt in Tillman referred lo re funding the State debt, and said : "I don't see why I can't refund it as well as anybody. I've as good ?1 character as anybody, if I do say it myself." There was nothing new in Till man's speech. At the conclusion of Iiis talk there was music by thc band, am then Ceuora 1 Karlo was introduce! lo thc audience as "another honoret son of South Carolina." Ile mad? a calm and clear speech, not wit h Standing thal he was often inter rupted by Tillman and others. lie said ho agreed with Cantan Tillman in some things and diff?re? with him in many. Under his owl definition Tillman was an aristocrat ami he was an ollice-seeker in Cohun ilia. Ile also said tho March Con volition was called outside of lin Democratic ranks, and thal hence i was au independent movement. Ho then said he wanted lo know as Attorney General, in what th corruption in the S lalo offices cou sistod, ami ,turned to Captain Till mau and asked him to tell him. Tillman replied : "Well, tho legis lalors did not do what they swor they would do, in not taking th census and re-apportioning the Rep rosen la ti ves over thc Stale !" "Is thal all V" said (icu. liarle. "Well, yes," replied Tillman, "thor was also a failure of duly by th Hoard ol' Agriculture to prosecut the fertilizer dealers." "Is that all ?" impiired (len. Karie "Vos." "Do you charge anything ttgaiiu me in my ollico ?" "No." "Have I been extravagant ?" "No." "Have I failed io do my duly ?" "No." "So the only corruption in iii Stall; government is in lin- failure t re-appor< hoi ?" "Yes." There w ere several little spats, In mil liing generally involved. (Jonerai Karie's speech was cha aeleri/.cd by calmness and elearncs Ile showed thal the Railroad Colt mission was without power. Il also saul thal Capt. Tillman ha done wrong in saying thal such nu as .lohn C. Haskell and others, wi arc just as good and pure asTilhnai are pre j urers.

Til man has turned his back on the ruh ol' thc Democratic party of 187 Ile believed Tillman was a Denn erat, but if defeated he did md km? what be Would do. Ile is a mi guided Democrat. Concluding, General Karie san "(tod be praised, this Democrat party has no corruption to nnswi for, and South Carolina's proud nan has md been smirched."

Struggle us they may, our farmers must continue to be purchasers and consumers of numberless things en hanced in cost by tariff regulation. Surely they have the right to say that this cost shall not he increased for the purpose of collecting unnec essary revenue, or to give undue ad vantage to domestic manufacturers. The plea that our infant industries need protection, which thus impover ishes the farmer and consumer, is in view of our natural advantages and tho skill and ingenuity of our people a hollow pretext. Struggle, as they may, our fanners cannot escape the conditions willoh lix the price of what they produce and sell, accord ing to rates winch prevail ill foreign markets, flooded with the competi tion of countries enjoying a freer exchange of trade than we. Tho plausible presentation of tho* bless ings of a home market should not deceive our depressed and impover ished agriculturists. There is no home market for them which does not take its instructions from the sea-board; and the sea-board trans mits tho worth of the loreign mar ket?. Because my conviction that there should be a modification of our ta riff laws arose principally from the appreciation of the vast army of 'consumers, comprising our farmers, our artisans and our workingmen, and because their condition has led me to protest, against tho, present imposition, I am especially glad to see these actions of my fellow coun trymen arousing themselves to the importance of tariff reform. Yours, very truly, GltOVKIl Cl.UV ULAND. Slate Polities lu Washington. [Correspondence of tho News and Courier. J WASHINGTON, May ll.- Lend ing Democrats in South Carolina are now in communication with Senators Hampton and Butler and the other members of the Palmetto delegation in Congress on the sub ject of State politics. It is said that many of the best people in thc State are very anxious for Senator Hampton to become tho regular D?mocratie candidate for Governor. This statement was made here in the Washington /'ont. (?'en. Hampton talked quito freely with mu yesterday about thc politi cal situation in South Carolina, bul he said nothing about running for Governor. Ile is willing and ready to take an active part in the coming campaign, and it is quite likely that he and other members of the dele gation will do all that lies in their power to assist in thc contest. ({en. Hampton advises that the Democratic leaders should have a consultation in advance of the regu lar convention in view ol' protecting the party organization throughout the State. Ile bas been invited to participate in such a consultation, and he and Senator lintier will shortly leave here for that purpose. South Carolina Republicans here are delighted at the prospect ol' a split in the Democracy in the coining contest, and they do not hesitate to say that they propose to make tin niest of it. They are open to any proposition that is calculated to di vido tho Democracy in the various Congressional Districts, as it will enable them to put up their own candidates and trust to their Repub lican friends in Congress to act fa vorably upon their contests, The Republicans are willing to enter into almost, any combination as far as the State offices are concern ed, provided they can get assistance in their Congressional contests. IO ven without this assistance, how ever, the Republicans declare that they are apt to capture several ol' the Congressional Districts against a divided Democracy, lu view ol' the recent utterances of Drayton and others of his kind, il behooves the straight-out Democracy of South Carolina to be up and doing.
