The New Election Scheme. "Honfiet' John Patterson, despair ing of the success of Chamberlain, submitted a plan to :President Hyesi proposing a new eletior.- for South Carolina and Louisia'na. The condition proposed-are that each party agree to stand by the result of the new election in good faith, and that the election shall be conducted under military su porvision. Chlamberlain to be recog -nized as Governor until the election is over. Blaine and the rest of the "bloody sbirter's" support this scheme. It;is ir,0El; ho4pes, anid they think if the eleetton otid be" conducted by tho vafitry, and the negroes forced to die the ladical ticket at the point of' he beyo4iet, thiere*onld be some chance for:Chanabe#lain and i'ackard and oftoontinuing the thievesin power with theiv retarning boards four years from idow, when they might be able to conut ip another fraudulent . esi., dont. .

Forthe present vacaff6y, t re are already a goodly number of oan, didates in the field, or rather the names of gentlemen have been put forth by their respective friends. Judge Aldrich has been announced byha frlfshds i Barnwell County. General tershaw has also been announced by hfsfriends. The Abbeville Medium nominates Gen. Samuel McGowan; the Anderson in telligencor announces Justice Willard as its choice, and then nominates Col A. C. Haskell to suceed him as Asso piate Justice. Chancellor Johnson of Marion, and Mr. Pope, of Columbia, have also boon mentioned. . These gentlemen are all able and upright men, and either of them would grace and dignify the Supreme bench of the State. As to the Chief Justiceship, we are rather inclined to agree with the Intelligencer. Justioe Willard is a6knowledged to be an able, impartial and fearless Judge, whose decisions are never biased by partisan or politi,% oal feeling. He had it in his powers had he been inclined to decide accor ding to political affiliation, and the example sot by some of the Supreme Judges of the United States on the el ctoral commission, to have made Chamberlain Governor, and entailed two more yeard of carpet bag misrule and oppression on the people of the State. By agreeing with Wright in his second bulldozed opinion, Cham berlain would have been declared the Governor of the State and the people would have had no legal remedy. But instead of proving roecreant t0 his trust, he adhered to the constitution of the State, and nobly vindicated the majesty of the law. In return for this act, and on account of his abilities, we think the Chief Justiceship would only be a proper and fitting compli, ment to him. As to an Associate Jus, tice to take his place, should he be electecd to the Chief Justiceship, either of the gentlemen above mentioned would fill the position ably and satia factorially to the people of the State. The Right Xcen ini the Right Place. The following from the Columbiai Register, on an editorial which recent ly appeared In the Newamand Courier, so fully accord with our own views and sentiments that we transfer it entire to our columns: The Newvs and Courier, of Monday sneeringly criticiaes and sharply con,. sures Judge Mackey and ex-Governor4 Scott for having presumed to go to < Washington as "seIf..constituted re, a resentatives of the reform adminis- j ra' 'an of the State." It represents i Jarolinians at Washington as open- d ng their eyes very wide, and Casroli- t ians at h ome as both burpised and e hocked at the great indecency. It a barges upon the luckless envoys the s Oense of "sublime impudence not t in worthy of the worst days of robber c ule in Columbia." Our Charleston contemporary is E niist.aken in the premises of both its i lonolusions. The committee charged ( >y Governor Hampton to proceoed to < WVashington and lay his letter and the I south Carolina case before Mr. Hayes a onsisted of General Kershaw, Judge Riackey, ex,Governor Scott and Col.I Rlion. Judge Maekey and ex-Goy. scott were not self-appointed or self, aonstituted any more than the other Iwo mnembers of the committee. They were asked to serve on the committee as representative men, representatives cf the Republican party in its support and alliance with the reform admin. Istration. Their authority thus to act, thus shown, was no more incon testable than the fitness of their so lection. They warmly supported the reform ticket, and for many months have given earnest efforts and valua-. ble assistance in having the State res form government established and recognized. Ex-Governor Scott has worked quietly and Judge Mackey has labored In season and ont of sea son in this behalf, and both accepta bly and effectively. In connection with present issues and their presen tation at Washington or elsewhere, it is not pertinent to consider what po lh,icg they may have professed, or what course they pursued on ote occasions. In the campaign wie were too glad to avial ourselves of the as, sistance of Republicans to break down the political powen of a corrupt and degrading party. It was not mecant that we were to turn our backs nnon nucih men and reu.o them .. "it of their service. It, i tmeet d p46per deny them fportOni- a tore atill higher se in d if -ore fion exiM I .wekcome the w ling b#ndi 4 ' dy U .W the faith I pewi th E evobted labor of any man, from what- t ever party or race he comes, who is < wIlMg arnd espaM to oid i1 whe reat I cause or working out the redemption @ of So1t) mg9lins t.v i sccessul con- 9 Ex-Governor Scott fs A lative~of Ohio, and pliasantly acquainted with z President Hayes. Judge aackey paid F him a visit; as we all know, and es. I tablished agreeable relations with 1 him. They were well qualified to be i on the committee, and as likely as any other two men in the State to prosper the suit which they were sent to press. Surely our contemporary is hasty in saying that it is the 'unan% 6 imous sentiment of the taxpayers that a it were far bettor that our cause should 1 go unrepresented before the Hayes administration than that ite advocacy should be entrusted to two such cham t pions as Judge Mackey and ex-Gov. I Scott." The taxpayers, on the don I trary, desire that the government E which they have chosen shall be I speedily and firmly established. They t Donfide in the discretion and judg ment of Governor Rnmpton, and wil.. a lingly remit to his hands the selection f the agents whom lie will entrust Q with any duties necessary to effect it. C The letter borne by fMe committee i rrom him to President Hayes was t simply to ask the removal of the C Lroops from the State House. le did i n6t ask rocognition in any other way. e The commi.tee was expected to repre-- I sent all the reform elements, all I sbades and colors of it, and to lay all 0 I- L facts )roper to be known before Mr Hayes' It was Governor Hampton's E intention to have appointed a larger i body for this purpose which should v embrace the following colored men, t viz: Messrs. Boston, of Newberry, i Hamilton, of Bleaufort, and Clinton, of Lancaster, but ho was necessarily li hurried, and unaible to carry out his f design in full,.c The people cordially approve of the 8 sagacity and fidelity of Governor el Hlampto,n in the present instance. d But one Governor. I The following charge was delivered V by Judge Coo, to tho Grand Jury , f Greenville County, at the opening l6 af Court for that County lnst week. v gTe clip it from the Greenville News: a Gtentlemen of the Grand Jury: f Sitting here as I do, for the purpose n >f administering justice-knowing no is me-I have triod, arnd I believe with W ome success, to avoid even the ap. p~ iearance of a political partisan. And ai can but r'egret that f ronm a sense of hi luty, I am constrained to allude to t< lhe anomalous condition of the gov rnment in South Carolina. Hiowev- 01 r the existence of the necessity, is st ufflcient plea for a seemingly adven-, ei ore upon the sea of politics on this at ceasion. ti To%day we have in the State of outh Carolina two persons, General h Vade Hampton and ex-Governor b Thamnberlain, claiming to be the Gov- it rnor. The Constitution does not a rovide for two Governors at the 0 aine tiwo. One of these is Governer, a md the other a pretender, or neither I s GJovernor. The Court upon one oc ~asion, at least, if not oft nor, has been ~alled upon to decide upon the title of A hese two con testantis for the office of fi Sovernor-anid has rendered its judg.. I rnent in the premises, sustaining the 0 title of General Wade Hampton as ti Qevernor of the State of South Caro- t1 lia, who was duly Installed in said ffee on the 14th day of December, A. D. 1878, on w hich said day ex-Gov mrnor Chamberlain cease-1 to be theb Governor of said State, And the ( judgment of the Court rendered here. fl Lofore, as stated, will be enforced in e the county of Greenville, and through- s unt the 8th Judicial Circuit, until re--a versed by a Court of last resort. And ,e I desire to go further, and say that no e recognition ot his Excellency by the r President of these Uunited States, can alter the judgment of tho Curt. It is a subject with which neither his Ex- , cellency or the Congress of the United I States, has anything to do, except to 1 osase to interfere with the govern-d mont of the State by military force. The Court, therefore, with a view ( .f prevent4ng a conflict of nthority, or jurisdiotion, desires to Impress upon F your body the neoessity of presenting C all persons in your county, claimingf the right to exercise or perform the t dutios of any office, as an apnane of I , r. vhmlierTln, iiesionte aret D*embog A.D. 187 r pte of hii-nado rio o Id n sece ""moved ve nor mpton, and tinues o "Nq m n can re tw M 0 for itheohe ill b th. e d .e he other, or else he will hold to the no, and despise the other."
