penses. Let us go upon the ground that the gentleman from Edgefield has chosen. I want to take this doughty warrior on his own ground. I want this McGregor put upon his native heath. He says we have saved the paltry sum ol $27,000 from the contingent fund. Now, the contingent funds for the years preceding last year were $47,000 and $32,000, or a total of $79,000. In the last year of Governor Moses' administration the contingent funds were $79,000, and last year, for all purposes, the contingent fund was $28,200, making a saving of $61,000 on the contingent funds in the first year of this administration. Well, now, my friends must suffer me to appeal from those courts in which I love to practice. I wish this scene of political turmoil could be banished forever,and thecalm hour of the civil courts breathe sweetly over me again. There I would go to one who comes to slay me with the hand of a friend. I would appeal from those courts in which I love to practice, and say, in no personal sense, butsay that in his statements to one and to all, "falfrus in uno,falsus in omnibus," and let me translate?"false in one thing?false in one state ment, false in all." My friends are coming around me with hints here, and I know how I could keep and weary this audienoe. In the turmoil and struggle of the legislative and executive departments I dare appeal, notwithstanding the taunts of the gentleman from Edgefield, to yon gray headed democrat, once the ornament of the judicial bench of South Carolina, and I ask him if he is not conscious that at every point this administration has husbanded the resources of the people and protected their property from the exaction of the tax gatherer. He will get an answer from the hearts of the people I have served. But I have ouly half served them. I wish I had been brave as Julius Ctesar, that I might have led up to great mountains of peace and prosperity, up which we seem so slowly bat wearily dim bing. But as we climb and have already half ascended to the summit, a creature clutches us from the rear, and we behold the democratic warrior, the gentleman from Edgefield. God help me and the republicans of South Carolina to shake off this clog that is now fastened on us as we work up to that mount, and grant our feet shall never fail or weary until the sunlight of victory bathes onr brows on its peaceful top. out 1 must pa use a tuuuieut tu iiunee vuo uhict of those reckless, statements. Rumors areas thick as blackberries in June, and among them I venture to say my friends have heard here that I have written a letter to Washington, asking for the withdrawal of United States troops. I am a vankee, and I venture the guess that if the gentleman from Edgetield, in his attack upon me, had thought that there was a letter at the war department, or any other department, he would have had a copy here. Instead of picking up a floating rumor, you would have had a copy of the letter written by Governor Chamberlain to the secretary of war. No such letter was ever written, or drafted, or heard of, or thought of by the present Governor of South Carolina. On the contrary, I am able to say that when the troubles arose in the county of Edgefield last year, and this year in the oounty of Laurens, I asked, through the attorneygeneral's office at Washington, for troops to command the public peace. My first application, as everybody knows, was answered favorably, and troops were sent to Edgefield until it was reported there was no further need of them. In reference to Laurens, the answer was, "unfortunately, we are in the midst of the Mississippi troubles, and if it should become known that we had aided South Carolina when Mississippi had been refused aid, we should be justly charged with partiality, unless you are able to certify, as governor, that there is* such an armed force moving through that county that you cannot protect the lives and property of the citizens." If my friend wants to see that letter from Mr. Pierrepont, I will show it to him in my office. Why, fellow-citizens,Igo for protection to every man, or even the meanest man that assails my political course. I say it is the first duty of every government to protect its citizens. When South Carolina cannot protect the lives and liberties of her citizens, I consider it the highest doty of the nA*TA?nmon4' TTnifn/1 Cf utoa frt rri VO nrntn/?. ^VWlilUiOUV VI VUV VlilWU VJWWVO bV ^4 TV J/4 vvw tion, and my highest duty and swiftest pleasure to invoke that aid. I am charged with something more than human?something morethan divine? forgiveness toward my enemies. Well, I am growing weary and must not detain you much longer. But if there is one sweet drop in the cup of satisfaction that I drink, not in review of my administration, it is this: That although I was covered with wounds, although the spearsmen and the swordsmen hunted me like a stag upon the mountains, yet never, since my feet stood upon that spot where you now sit?I glory in it, write it up>on my tomb, tell it to my children? that, notwithstanding the terrors and barbed arrows of that campaign, my lips have never, to this hour, been opened to one imprecation or one curse upon those who then fought me. Blot out everything else, but let it remain as a reward and sweet recompense that I never did, as Governor of South Carolina, reproach my enemies by a single harsh, vituperative word. I will do "my duty. But it is not a part of the duty of a man to use his intellect and capacities to "assail with bitter words a people who may differ with him in politics. I have spoken in answer to the gentleman from Edgefield. There was one word that went to ray heart. It was that I forgave my enemies. If I do not get the blessings of the gentleman from Edgefield, I will get the blessings of mv wife and children, and .the blessings of God TEfangntyr* ?? One word more, and then I leave this controversy. I will trust to the test oftimeto vindicate my course in the administration of the government of South Carolina, aud continue in the same pathway of reform and good government upon which we have entered. I shall keep my eyes steadily fixed upon the polar star of political "reform, and will strain myself more zealously at the oars until our bark, with all ouraspirations, is watted into tiie caim, gracious sea 01 ponucai equality and administrative reform. The close of Governor Chamberlain's speech was hailed with applause, which lasted for several minutes, and the balloting then began. It produced a revolution, for a time, in the Convention, and the body in which Governor Chamberlain had been in a hopeless minority, instantly elected him, over Senator Patterson, as a delegate to the National Republican Convention, by a sweeping majority. The vote stood: Chamberlain 70, and Patterson 40. For the third delegate at large, (Elliott having been elected to the first) the candidates were Patterson, Gleaves and Cardozo. Gleaves was elected. The candidates for the fourth place (Dunu withdrawing in favor of Patterson) were Patterson and Cardozo, and the former was elected by a vote of 80 to 25. The alternates chosen are B. F. Wbittemore. C. M. Wilder, A. 0. Jones and W. Minton. A COMPLIMENT TO MORTON. Elliott offered the following, which was adopted: Whereas, at no time since the outbreak of the rebellion, has our country been in so great danger of falling into the hands of a party opposed to all the true principles which should govern a republican form of government, therefore, be it Resolved, That as republicans we feel that we would be neglecting a duty, not only to ourselves but to our country, aid we fail, before the adjournment of this convention, to give expression to our appreciation of the high character, statesmanlike ability and consistent adherence to the just principles of the republican party of the Hon. 0. P. Morton, United States Senator from Indiana. Resolved, That we do earnestly endorse and approve the course so consistently pursued by him during the whole period of his public life in behalf of the rights ana liberties of all citizens of our common country, and his efforts to secure to all, without distinction of race, color or previous condition, the equal protection of the law. check to Elliott's ring. Governor Chamberlain introduced the following, which was adopted: Resolved, That this Convention leaves the delegates of South Carolina to the Cincinnati Convention wholly uninstructed and untraintneled in their choice of the individual candidates for President and Vice-President of the United States, but require them, and each of them, to vote and work earnestly and always for those candidates whose characters and careers have shone them to be most faithful to the cardinal doctrines of the Republican party?namely, equal civil and political rights for all men ; instant and complete reformation of all existing abuses in the administration of the government; purity, ability and integrity in all public appointments, and an unflinching determination to make the public service, in all its departments and branches, as honorable and benignant as when the unsullied Washington wielded the executive power of the republic. vote of thanks to gov. chamberlain. The following resolution was submitted : Resolved, That this Convention hereby tender to Governor ChamberlaiH their most hearty thanks for the honorable, able and effective manner in which he has administered the government of this State since his inauguration as Governor; that his course has reflected the highest honor upon him, and upon the Republican partvof this State, redeeming it, in a large measure, from the evil winnta and nhlormv caused hv former leaders of the party, and commending it to the confidence even of our most bitter political foes; that we call npon him to go forward in the same path of reform and good government which he has hitherto pursued, and we hereby assure him of the determined support of all true republicans of the State. McKinlay, of Charleston, said he could ot vote for the resolution, as there were many acts of Governor Chamberlain that needed explanation ; there was the convenient absence of the Governor from the State at the time of the Parker trial and of the Solomon bank failure, and the convenient presence of Judge Mackey when Parker was released on habeas corpus. Governor Chamberlain said that he courted inquiry, and was always ready to answer questions. There was absolutely no foundation of truth for what had been said of him by Mr. Ladd on the Parker trial; it was only a hearsay on hearsay. There was really no charge that could not be met, but he would, as he had publicly done before, defy the world to bring any such charge, in a manner capable of disproof, against him. His absence from the State was arranged for some months before the Parker trial was heard of. He had accepted an invitation to deliver an address at Yale College, and had left the State only 4 i early enough to keep the appointment. Had * ' he been in the State, he could not have taken v | any part in the Parker trial, for the attorney-general and comptroller had charge of it, and bis interference would have been unwar- i rautable; nor could the State, by his pres-! r ence, have been saved the loss of a peuny by J the bank failure. As to the Mackey matter, ^ he said that Judge Mackey had called on him b when he arrived in Columbia, and he (Cham- c< berlain) had invited him to dine with him. .1 Judge Mackey was taken ill with a chill, and | remained with him (Chamberlain) until the | next day. That was all. Judge Mackey H i came to Columbia at the request of the coun- ^ j sel in the Parker case and of Chancellor Car- p I roll. Mr. Elliott, of counsel for Parker, was 11 aware of the fact al j Elliott confirmed this statement. tl THE RING REVIVE AGAIN. ? I A motion to indefinitely postpone the reso- b j lution of thanks was lost. Collector Worj thington moved to adjourn. This was lost. ti Dr. Winsraith, somewhat bitterly, opposed h I the resolution, saying the Governor should & have been satisfied with his election as a del- _ egate to Cincinnati, and should not expect more than that. 1 Elliott likewise opposed the resolution, be- ' cause it reflected on the leaders of the party, and because he disapproved of many of the acts of the Governor, especially his refusal to commission Moses and Whipper. Green moved to lay the resolution of thanks on the table, and this was done. Ayes fc 62, noes 32. b Bowen and Patterson shook hands and looked a little less miserable. . Elliott introduced a resolution, which was adopted, thanking President Grant for the manner in which he had executed the laws, ~ and for the vigor with which he has extended the strong arm of the government to protect I American citizens when threatened by armed * bands of conspirators. S After voting thanks to the president and | officers, the Convention adjourned sine die. ^ Gratuitous Advice.?This species of ad- e: vice is not always acceptable, but doubtless in j* many instances much benefit would be derived ^ were it promptly acted upon. No section of the country is exempt from disease and many regions has its "ills that flesh is heir to." To know the best means of combatting this common enemy, with the least injury to our pock- ~ ets and tastes,.is certainly a great advantage. At this season we must expect Torpid Liver, J congested spleen, vitiated bile and inactive Si bowels, and all prudent persons should supply themselves with Tutt's Liver Pills, which will stimulate the liver, relieve the engorged J spleen, determine a nealthy flow of bile, thus ~ regulating the bowels and causing all unhealthy secretions to pass off in a natural j manner. Remember that "an ounce of pre- ventive is worth more than a pound of cure." i Just After Christmas of 1870, I was ? laid up with an obstinate Cough, together with Spittiug of Blood, accompanied with some i fever?from the ioint effects of which I was * V t ? greatly weakened, and became rapidly reduced. Following the best advice I could , get, I tried various medicines, but none appa- I rently done me much good, leaving me low spirited enough. I made up my mind at last to try Dr. Jayne's Expectorant, and procured ^ some. I used it carefully as directed, and ? got rid of my complaint.? Wm. A. C. Pyle, _ Tamaran, Perry county, Wis.
