To the Democratic parly of S< uth Carolina : 'JA gravo .fpaHtn t flirty or sisto , VN>nfr6ots us, The life of our parly is threatened. White supremacy in South Caro'ina is endangered. What was predicted hut hardly expected, lias happened. An independent movement has teen inaugurated; an Independent tickit lias been nouiinnted ; and for its success in the impending cleelion a coalition ha? brerr effected between the Republican party and the deserters front the ranke of tlio Democracy. A small gathering of c l-tcns calling themselves r-ttuightout Dcttiocrsp, representing at lent only n defeat- d rhin rity of ihe Democrats of this state, has held a conference in Columbia iu defi.nco if the regulaily constituted authoriiics of our pmty has ret tV naught the action of the regular Democraiio convent ons held in August and September, hive proclaimed war against our Democratic lenders and nominees, and, to lead tljrm in this internecine strife, tlicy have nominated a full Mate ticket with Judge liask ell at i's hc<d as their nominee for gotc nor. tlii* action on their ( art, in opposition to this action of an overwhelming majority of the Democrats of ?outh Carolina, they have icai them-elvcs out of the tanks of the Democracy by call og upon the negro votes to aid them in tlieir fmtridicil war ng?inet,their white brcthicii, they have deflated tlnnoselves rcaiy to join hands with the hlack map in pulling down and destroying the whi e man's government ami ore ready and willing to sec hontli Carolina again under the heel of the alien tyrant and the ign< rmt negro. "They are, a few of them men of high eocial .standing and of great politic il inllue*co, and cxper encc ; sonic of them men whom th* ir sla'c his delighted to honor, aud who have tilled high position ns a reward for their diftinguisheJ services as patriots and as Democrat".

As a consistent and true* demo- ' crnt wo accept the rule of tho majority, how- j e*cr wo may deprecate the methods adopted t to secure that majority in the convention. 1 Thst convention, says Coi. Hoyt, Chairman of the former Executive o?mmiitoe,_ "was j regularly convened undor (bo lawfully oonsti- I tutel antb?ri,y^drop??g^^^j ^^^^^nfemocMits as of bnufn^Ww." '* | I In this view of the situation wo siocere'y I dopl-ro the action of the Into conference of I many demoornts in putting another ticket in the Sold in opposition to the regular nominees of tho democratic pnrly. By th'ir extremely indiscreet action they have placed the democratic party in this Siato in n very critical position. By it the dis<fn*io(U of the party, create I by^thc bitter campaign, are developing into a dan gtroui breaoli, that will requiro all the , firmness, forbcaranoe ant sngaoity of the most intelligent anil cool-headed men, ou ' both aides, to heal, and prevent the balance of our po'itiral powor from going over, by , political Irirtsr, to a clangorous element di- 1 rectly opptsoi to wh'te supremacy in the State. / In our opiuion the digression from demo- ; cratio rule promlsos only danger to the future i poire of ilio State, and will seriously aDimt .J its ma'ei ial prpgros.S, unI<Tis*tt is ctieoked by j V dooiiled defeat at tho general election next month. There are men on the ITaskell ticket that we have long known nnd respected for their supethr qualities of head and heart, and w c aro eor y we cannot go with thom. But, cntlcmen, we cannot follow yon in tho crookod an 1 dangerous path wo believe jou have taken. It is not probable that the Haskoll ticket will show much strength in this oounty, but it behoove.-* every democrat who values ilio integrity of the party and would perpetuate its grand and hcnoticent doctrines, to record his vote again?t any men or cff?rt that will disrupt the party. To ustherocin ho but one democratio parly and ouo dctnooralic ticket in the State, and the tiokct nominated by a majority of thr party is the only tickc* we can recogni*c.
