Our Next Governor.
Daniel II. Cbanibcrluin, the coming Gov
ernor of this' State, has been interviewed by'
a New York Herald correspondent, and as
an evidence to the people that*ho means re
form, when ho soys roform; he handles
without gloves sovoral of bis compeers in
tbo Legislature and clsowhore, and puts
himself fairly upon record. The mako- up
of the tho Party first clnuuedjhia nttention
whieh he clnsBed as follows;
The Republican pnrty of South Carolina
to-day is composed of men having a great
variety of oharnctcr nnd interests, greater
than 1 have ever known in any State or time,
and these interests conflict with and are
wholly hostilo to each otber. First, tbero
is an clement which would, if they could,
continue the present condition of things.
They arc men having no public reputation,
who jarfc governed solely by a desire to pro
vide for themselves [nt the public expense.
Second, there is a class who ore not con
trolled' primarily by inorc oonvictions, but
are thoroughly impressed, nsamattorof
pnrty necessity, that we have got to mako a
complcto change in tbc lenders. The third
division is better and stronger, because it
is truly anxious for the Republican party to
give the Stato a good government that will
build up material prosperity and do full
ana complete justice to both rnces.
Probably the most troublesome class of
tho three above described is the element
which would, if they could, continue tbo
present condition of things. They arc
nothing more nor less that mere politicians;
or, if hot of so high n grndc then, merely
rude disturbers of the public peace. They
sec no pi of pects of filling their purses ex
cept at tbc people's treasury, and, no mat
ter what the cost may be to others, they
will have that money, or else ruin follows.
With this chisB of men Mr. Chamberlain de
sires do connection. Their companionship
taints his garments, and tbo odor of the ir
presence clings to bim and bears him down,
when be would rise up.
The second class comprise the people wh o
are now clamoring bo loudly for a cbangc
to?they know not what. Some of them un
doubtcdly'^nro perfectly sincere in their
desire for a reform in nil. thing political,
but they overlook the important fact "That"
j thi? reform can be accomplished in our own
lives. There is not tho least necessity to
wander off into new pastures, or into the
old Democratic pasture, for we know but
too well how many Republicans havo been
slaughtered in that pasture, nnd yet there
arc Republicans just bo foolish as to walk
info it with their cye3wido open.
The third class is coiriprs>d cf men r.ftcr
our own heart. They want, nay, demand,
law, order, honesty nnd justice. They wish
to tjo .the hands of no man, but accord to all
freedom of thought, freedom of speech, and
freedom of action. They want on honest
man for Governor, nnd tbey wnnt that man
to be Daniel II. Chamberlain. So do wo.
Mr. Chnmberlnin'a faith in the future is
firm. He Fays:
I have faith in tbc final result; for I be
lieve I can nt this time put my band upon
the men who will stand by rue in nil my ef
forts to secure an honest government, nnd
who will be able substantially to coutrol the
nt'ministrntion for the next two years, or at
least prevent such legislation as wo have
suffered from during the past four years.
To be more ppecific on this point, I believe
I Bbnll be supported by tho Treasurer Comp
troller-General and Attorney-General.
Tho great uncertainty is with reference
to the constitution of the General Assombly,
and there, perhaps, wo must make our
'fight. The cntiro weakness of the Republi
can party horcisthat it is not composed of
tho best ^ability or intelligence of the State;
hence we enn only accomplish a measurable
success. My judgeniout, however, is thnt
wo shall have a preponderance of honesty
and a much [larger measure of ability than
ever before
Let all Republicans but fjhavc the faith
that inspires our standard bearer and a
glorious victory awaits us.

their confidence in him by unanimously
nominating him as their standard-bearer
for Congress.
Mnjor Buttz has undoubtedly won tbero.

manner in which ho has discharged tho
duties of his ofllco.

Yestordny I w1s surprised by tho receipt
of a telegram from lion. W. II. Jones, ask
ing me to send a delegation to tho bolting
convention. His message is as follows :

To If. H. Jones, Columbia S. C.:
Not on nicssngc marked "collect." I liave
no stock in your movement. There nro no
bolters here. J. Fctunn Mevkhs.
From tho above it would eoem that the
bolters are pretty hard up?not money
enough topny for a dispatch, and no chair
man here of their fizzle. I respect .lones,
but not his movement, and had thought as
it was well known that Senator Andrew's
and myself, as editors of tho Orangeburg
Xetes, had worked thus far for tho election
of Mr. Chamberlain, that oven my friend
Jones, would not think of us as willing to
abandon tho contest, now that our enndidato
is bo sure of election.
In conclusion, I will say to Mr. Jones
and his party that there aro no Green mon
here in the rupublionn party, and that if he
wants a dologation ho must apply to demo
cratic sources.

To the Editor of the Daily Union-Herald :
I want a short space in your valuable
paper to let Mr. Green know bow the dele
gates from this county were gotten up. In
the first place, there was no county conven
tion, and of course there were no delegates
elect cd. One ?. M* Rose, of Columbia,
came to Hook Hill, and got two white men,
James Batterrce, James McLain, and
democrat, and one colored man, who went
more fur pleasure than ou business. I have
been informed by nresponsible parly that
Mr. Hose had passes over the railroad for
each of them. I think Mr. Biitterreeenn
control bis own vote in this county, nnd
that's lall; Mi. Mcl.nin votes the democratic
ticket: of course the colored man will vote
for Chamberlain on the day of bis election,
I jcan't say how Mr. Hose will vole. If J.
II. White, Nelson Davis, J M. L. Owens or
John L. Watson had taken part iu a bolters'
convention, tbo republican vote in this
county might huvo been split, bat they
stand shoulder to shoulder for I). II. Cham
berlain, rR. H. Glcayesaud Hon. A, S. Wal

To the Editor of the Daily Union-tieraid:
That the people of the State may know
how the bolter's delegation to the Greenhorn
convention, to be held nt Charleston on the
2d prox., was gotten up, and the extent of
the same, we desiro to say that the meeting
was bold in Trial Justioe W- II. Thomas'
office, and consisted of snint halfdor.cn per
sons, all from the town of Newherry.
The parties engaged in the meeting have
never had any influence in this community.
One of the delegates was pardoned out of
tho penitentiary. Anothor is a rccont im
portation, whose history, as far as known,
is of the most objectionablo character,
preacher, lawyer, trial justice, school teach
er and carpet-bagger?in short, an adven
turer. The remaining one, a "constitution
al bolter," is familiarly known as "Opos
sum Ed;" one whose vote never nost tho de
mocracy more than specious promises, and
one who cost the State a large amount of
money in the way of pay certificates, with
out rendering any services, renmining all
the time at his homo in this town. The lnt
t cr was appointed a few days ago chairman
of this county i by carpet-bagger Dunn.

at the market house nnd Bleep under tho
bridge, unless aid is afforded them. Wo

Ambition /vh. Hog.
Ono of tho Molntyrc dolegatcs to Colum
bia, not having the needful to pay his ex
penses, allowed his vaulting nnibition to
deceive him as to the difforenco between
mine and thine, nnd in the stilly hours of
night tuok his neighbor's hog and exchang
ed it for sufficient of tho filthy lucre to en
able him tu satisfy his ambitions cravings.
But his golden dreams wo destined to meet
with an early and untimely cud. On ar
riving at that, much abusod place tho so.it of
South Carolina Legislature ho was thun
derstruck to learn that conventions were
there carried in a different manner from
what was tho custom in Collcton, and that
right and justice was tboro recognized.
That convention held in back kitchens, with
locked doors, wero no go, and ho was in
formed ho was troo to return to his Colloton
home, or take a seat in tho gallery as n
quiet spectator. His ambitious hopos thus
doomed, he indignantly spume-1 the prof
fered rest, but shaking tho very dust from
his feet as a tokonof his disgust for tho
honorable mon who had judged his claims,
he aped forthwith, and took pas-iago on tho
first outward bound train. But misforhtucs
noyeroqru? ntn?ly. Tho neighbors Whose
hdg he had quietly appropriated had in tho
meantime discovered his loss, and found it
after long search in tho possession of tho
party who purchased it from our hero. Not
with the manner in which he had been troa
tcd by your would bo statesman, he repaired
to tho office of one of our dispensers of jus
tice T. J-!. Richardson. Esq., who, upon
hearing the facts, at once informed him that
the majesty of the law should bo maintain
ed.
Our kitchen dclogato iu the meantime
had arrived in sight of that placo general
ly designated as a man's castle, and grow
ing poetic at the sight was repeating to
himself the words of "homo, swest, home,"
when a rough hand was laid upon him with
a request iu the namo of the State for him
to retruco his steps to tho Squiro's. On ar
riving at tho head quarters of tho dispon ?
sor of justice, he was confronted .by the
irate owner of the 6tolon hog. Learning
what damnable proofs had been unearthed
against him during ids search for political
honor, he at once acknowledged tho corn,
and received the scntenoo of-dollars or
five days in Sheriff Terry's castle.
Ho defends his conduct on the ground
that ho is a candidate for county commis
sioner, nnd seeing in the papers the num
ber that had been convicted throughout the
Sttito for larceny ho supposed that was a
necessary justification. In politics, he is
iu favor of reform, and supports Judge
Green for Governor.? Wullcrboro News.

SECOND CONGRESSIONALJ DI STRICT.
Tho Congressional Convention composed
of delegates from the Counties of Charles
ton, Clarendon, Lexington and Orangeburg,
met on the l? of September, in Convention
at tho State House in Columbia pursuant to
tbc regular call and unanimously nominated
C. W. Butts for Congress.
It is the duty of every Republican to supj
port the regular nominee of the party.
It is ?bc duty of every voter to support
Major Rultz, because of tho upright and
manly course lie has pursued during tho last
two years as Solicitor, officially treating
all classes and parties aliko without regard
to politics.
Major Buttz was an officer in the Union
army during the war, and distinguished
himself for bravery on several occasions; ho
wns brevetted twice by President Lincoln,
once ns Captain "for gallant and meritorious
conduct in capturing from the enemy a full
rocket battery," and the other as Mafor
"for gallant, and meritorious sei vico in front
of Suffolk."
Mnjor Bnttx, like other public men, has
his personal nnd political enemies, who have
circulated false and defnmitory charges
against him ; yet he has on all occasiens
satisfactorily explained them, ho has shown
and in ready and willing tc^provc the family
of nil evil reports) no matter from whr.t
source they may conic.
Major Buttz will honestly ami faithfully
represent the true interest of all tho peo
ple.
The following editorial endorsement"" of
Major Buttz are taken from the two leading
Republican papers published in this Dis
trict :
Many persons were surprised at tbc
popularity of Major Buttz, whilst others,
envious and disappointed at i his success,
resolved on a course of personal abuse to
weaken the people's couGdence in him. Yet
without any effort on his part, tho honest
and independent representatives of this
Congressional District, iu Convention
assembled, have ngnin unmistakably mani
fested their confidence iu him by unani
mously nominating him as their stun lard
bearer for Congress.
Testimony ForThe Ccurcntlon
/ *Pne Ccdu^buW^a;n'r, iu its issue of th e
Zuth says:
"But upon reflection and examination of
the field after tbo nomination, we became
convinced that further opposition was fruit
less. It nppearcd to us that tho efforts of
thn minority of the Republican Convention
to ran an opposing candidate muot result in
failure. We resolved, therefore, to moder
ate tbo cvpression of our opposition to Mr.
Chamberlain, and to hold tho balance ever
between him, Judge Grocn. or any other
opponent he may encountor in his own par
ly, doing justice to nil, and giving to all
full and free voico iu the columns of the
Phoenix, within the limits of just and fair
discussion."
Tho Charleston News, through its cor
respondent, puts Colleton as going for th c
mongrol bolting Democratic ticket. We
have traveled the county, and aro posted as
to the views of the Republicans of Colleton.
Chamberlain, beforo tho nomination, was
the unanimous choice of the Republicans,
and he certainly has lost none of his
Strength; besides, Colleton always supports
tho regular nomineo. The county w &% thor
oughly ennvnssed two years ng> by the
Tomlinson Party, and although the county
chairman and commissioners of election
wero active supporters of that party, he
only received about four hundred votes in
the county, fifteon of which were Ropubli
cau. The present poll will not oarry the
half thut the Tomlinson tioket did. It cor
responds with the Htatomonts of tho News
and Courier before tho Convention as to the
immense strength of Governor Moses; that
he would sweep cvorything in the Conven
tion; but beheld, when the Convention met,
ho received ouo voto in one hundred and
twonty-four. Tho Conservative vote that
supported in a small degree the Tomlinson
ticket will not endorse any tioket gotten up
by Buch notorious characters as Molnlyre,
llnyne, Lee & Co. It would have been
better for the Newt and Courier party if
tbey bad issued their manifesto unsigned
tban to put it over the signatures of suob
hontil exemplary men as Molntyrc, Hayno
and Lec. No man put in nomination by
their men could carry tho Republican vote
in this count7. Tomlinson did,1 to wit,
