and is to be back by the 12th of October. She has, stopped over seven days during her trip. Half of the distance between the terminal points was made when she reached Spartanburg. She is 33 years of age, has light hair, blue eyes, and light complexion, which, however, is tanned by sun and wind. She dresses neatly in black and wears shoes without heels. She told your correspondent that she desires to win the prize, as a matter of necessity. She is poor and has none on whom to depend. She is a native of Chowan county, North Carolina, / and married a Mr. Potts twelve years ago. She lived in Norfolk three years and then moved to New York. Within the l:ist three years she has lost her husband and four chil* dren. She says that on her return trip she intends to do some of the fastest walking on record. She left here. on Saturday morning at 8 o'clock, with a swinging gait and springy step that would not be envied by ladies who cultivate a more graceful style of locomotion. Ego. THE PRESIDENT'S YETOES. A democratic view of the question of troops at the polls. Tr? il>a Hnnao nf R0nrpspnta.fivps nn the / ^ 11th iustant, Proctor Knott, of the House judiciary committee, submitted to the House the committee's report upon the President's message vetoing the bill known as the Military Interference Bill. The report is quite lengthy; but the following synopsis will give a clear idea of the full text of the document: , The report begins by stating that the dan- ' ger to be apprehended from the presence of ( troops at the polls is sufficiently apparent, and ( has been repeatedly pointed out. As long . ago as 1863, Congress found it necessary to pass a bill to obviate it by strictly prohibiting military interference -with elections, except upon the call of a State or to keep the peace at the polls. That bill was approved by President Lincoln and is now in force as sectionsjl,002 and 5,528 of the Revised Stat- 1 utes. The words "keep the peace at the t polls," were not in the original draft of the ( bill, but were added in the Senate, against ( the remonstrances of a majority of its sup- c porters who feared they would be miscon- c strued and used as a pretext to evade with \ impunity the penalties prescribed. To re- f move that pretext and prevent the recurrence of practices already shown to be dangerous, 1 the present Congress, in making appropria- s tions for the support of the army, struck out the words in question. The President there- 1 upon retnrned the bill without his signature r because, in his opinion, first, it was unneces- c sary; second, it would prevent civil officers s from using civil force to keep peace at the f polls, and third, the method of repealing the c - clause m question was not in harmony with t Executive taste. The first two objections the committee, for the present, passes without re- t mark. With regard to the thiid, the report 1 says the manner of repeal was iD strict con- -c formity to the Constitution and the rules pf i the House, and justified by numerous prece- c dents in the annals of Federal legislation, t The latest of these precedents was contained 1 in the Army Appropriation bill for the pres- t ent fiscal year, which the President signed ? without objection, notwithstanding the pro- r vision was contained therein prohibiting the s use of the army as u posse eomitatus. "It a might not be improper, therefore, for the a President to devote some attention to the con- c sisteucy of his own record, if not to the ordi- v nary proprieties hitherto observed by the r Chief Magistrate in communicating with the s supreme legislature of the country. The re- t port then recites the p reparation and passage t of the separate measure of the same nature, p with a view to obviate the President's objec- o tions to the method of repeal, and says: "It; too, was returned without approval." It then p takes up and examines in course the President's reasons for vetoing the measure in - . question. With regard to the first of these c that the bill is unnecessary, the report says: v "Whether the opinion of the majority of the Representatives of the people is entitled to v any consideration at the hands of the Chief 1 Executive is, of course, a matter to be deter- I minid by himself; but it is impossible to read the two veto messages together without being struck by their marked difference in tone as f regards this objection. The inevitable con- I elusion to be drawn from the first message 1 was that all authority to use the army at the polls, even in aid of civil officers was tacitly, 1 if not expressly, abjured. In the second mes- ( sage, however, there is no such disclaimer. It 1 is admitted that elections ought to be free from military interference, but there is no in- r timation that such interference would be un- i lawful. On the contrary, the inference from f the second message is that, under certain cir- c , cumstances, it would be eminently proper. 1 The entire argument against the necessity of t the bill is, therefore, left upon the President's a assertion that troops have not been and will ( not be used to interfere with elections during J his administration, but his term of office will t sooii end and his opinions may change. The r subjects of a despot must depend for security ^ upon the grace of their master, but a free v neonle will insist unnn an a ran tees of nositive J faw. The second objection of the President a to the measure under consideration is that it 1 would abrogate at certain times and places, a i number of existing laws, especially section o 5,298 of the Revised Statutes which, he says, s was sanctioned by Washington, Jefferson, 2 Jackson and Lincoln, and contains the prin- xi ciple acted upon by four Presidents more endeared than all others to the American people. With regard to this objection the report says: If the President had examined the facts connected with the transactions to which he alludes, he would have found that neither of the four illustrious patriots re ferred to, either did or proposed to do anything which would not have been lawful under the strictest letter cf the bill which he now vetoes." In proof of this assertiou the report recites the circumstances of the "whisky rebellion" of 1793; the conspiracy of Aaron Burr; the nullification movement of 1832, in South Carolina, and the outbreak of the late civil war. It adds, "a sufficient, answer, however, to this objection is that it is untrue. The various statutes to which he refers, including section 5,298, are as completely abrogated by an act approved by President Lincoln, February 27, 1865, as they possibly could have been by this bill had the President signed it. A mere glance at the two measures will place this proposition beyond doubt in any candid mind. It is a matter of regret, therefore, that the President should have assumed a position so utterly ( without foundation. It should be borne in j 1 mind, however, that sections 2,002 and 5,528 neither confer the power nor impose the duty upon any officers of the United States to keep ' the peace at the polls. Congress has no con- < stitutional power to confer such authority or 1 impose such duty. Both power and duty belong exclusively to the several States, as < was distinctly held by the Supreme Court < in the comparatively recent case of the "United States vs. Cruikshank, et al., 2 Ot- j: to, 551." The same principle was also enunciated by the same Court in 1842, in the case J of Pennsylvania vs. Prigg, 16 Peters, 625. 1 Nor can it be said that mere power to exe- j cute legal process carries with it authority to 1 preserve the peace. If a Marshal should be forcibly resisted in the execution of a process j in his hands, the persons resisting would, as held in the case of the United States vs Cruik- j shank, before cited, be guilty of two offenses, one against the United States in resisting its process, and one against the State in violating i its peace, and the authorities of the United States would have no more jurisdiction of the latter offense than the State would of the former. That this was once the opinion of the present Secretary of State is shown by the following extract from a letter of instructions to j the Marshal of Florida, written by him August 20th, 1860, while Attorney-General un-1 der a former Administration : "The special! duty and authority in the execution of process issued to you must not be coufounded with the duty and authority of suppressing disor- j der and preserving the peace, which, under our Government, belongs to the civil authorities of , the States, and not to the civil authorities of the United States. It may be repeated, therefore," says the report, that sections 2,002 and 5,528 i of the Revised Statutes do not authorize officers of the United States to keep the peace ] at the polls, and they cannot be rationally ] construed to. confer any authority or impose ] any duty. The final objection of the Presi- . dent to the bill is that it discriminates in favor of a State and against the National authority, by making it lawful, uoder some circumstances, to use the army to prevent violence in the conduct of State elections, and unlawful to do so in the conduct of National ( elections. Upon this point the report says : "The common sense of the country under- 1 stands that all elections in a State, whether \ for members of Congress or local officers, are i by the same electors, and those electors derive 1 their right to vote, as was decided by the Su- j preme Court, in the case of "Mider vs. Hup- i pensett, 21 Wall, 170," from the State, and not from the United States. It is, therefore, as much the power and duty of a State gov- < ernment to maintain peace and order at elec- ] tions for Congressmen as at elections for r State officers." } In conclusion, the report sums up with the { reiterated statement that the Federal Govern- { manf koo n/?t nnd nftnnot derive from Congress i any right to preserve the peace in a State, i either at polls or elsewhere, unless called up- ! on by the proper State authorities, and that it is difficult to see how distinct the reservation . to the President of power to suppress insurrection against a State when properly called on, can be said to derogate from the authority t of the United States. The report closes with the request of the committee to be discharged from further consideration of the subject. ???? Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. . LETTER FROM CHESTER. J Chester, S. C., June 17, 1879. t: At present the thrashing of small grain is 8 oeing busily carried on, and the shrill whis- s ,le of the engine and the whirr of the thrash- b ;r around town, indicate that a goodly supply ( >f wheat aud oats has been made in this vi;inity. Mr. P. Nail sowed 8 bushels of wheat 5 >n ten acres, in the suburbs of town, from vhich he harvested 1621 bushels of wheat of 1 ine quality. It is of the Fultz variety. ^ A good rain, which was much needed, fell c lere last Tuesday, but we have had none 8' ince, and the ground is again becoming dry. - Gourt opened yesteraay, m? nuuur u uugo Thomson presiding. Solicitor Gaston informs j ne there are no cases of burglary or larceny t in the Sessions Docket, which is an unusual tnd remarkable occurrence. There are a ^ ew cases of assault and battery and one mur- v ler case for trial, and it is probable that the " erm of Court will be short. 1 Charging the grand jury, his Honor said j, hat it was unnecessary to reiterate what had tl )een charged at previous terras. He spoke if the power of granting license to sell intox- eating liquors in the county, and in a sariastic manner, instructed the grand jury hat if, in their opinion, the fee of $50 for a <i icense was sufficient to compensate for all G he crime attending the sale of whisky, such "V is riots, and perhaps murder, and general de- n noralization, then to grant them. He in- ? tructed the grand jury that card playing is ji t violation of law even if no wager is made, ? tnd unless parties play in their own parlors ?r dwellings, the practice is unlawful. He r yas particularly severe on the practice of car- t< ying concealed weapons, and said that the J avage lies by his arms when he returns to lis home ; but the American citizen sits down o his table, in the midst of his family, with a i listol or two on his person, as if in the midst J f deadly foes. ? The grand jury, Joseph Nunnery foreman, r iresented the following true bills: 1 State vs. George Carter ; murder. ? State vs. Bailey Clark; assault with conealed deadly weapon, and assault and battery S vith intent to kill. 5 State vs. Bill Barber ; assault and battery vith intent to kill. State vs. Newton Buchanan ; assault and attery with intent to kill. I The following cases were tried yesterday State vs. Garland H. Smith ; assault with listol with intent to kill. Verdict, not guilty, dr. Solicitor Gaston for the State; Messrs. V. A. Sanders and A. G. Brice for defendant. J State vs. Margaret Pardue; assault and " lattery. Verdict, not guilty. Mr. Solicitor G 5astou for the State; Giles J. Patterson, 0 ?sq., for defendant. o The grand jury made their report this * norning and -was discharged. The following ii s a synopsis of their presentment: They find the jail well kept, but repairs ^ irdered at the last term of the court have >een neglected, and it is recommended that v he said repairs be made at once. The same is to the Court House. The offices of the Tlerk of the Court, Sheriff, Probate Judge, Treasurer, Auditor, School Commissioner and he County Commissioners are all well aranged and the books and papers of the same :ept in a business-like manner. Chairs, previously recommended for the office of Probate Fudge, have not been furnished, and it is .gain recommended that they be procured. T The Clerk has funds on hand to meet all deuands. The County Treasurer has collected ^ me-sixth of the tax. The School Commis- u ioner says that out of 3,815 voters, only C 1,470 pay poll tax, and the grand jury recorauend to our Representatives in the Legisla- c ure to enact a law to compel the payment of h he same. They also recommend the pur- jV hase of shelving for books and a desk for a he School Commissioner. The offices of ci Trial Justices Lloyd and McDonald are re>orted in good order; and fines, <fcc., collectd by these officials promptly turned over to he County Treasurer. The poor house is in ;ood condition. There are in it 13 paupers? [ white and 9 colored. A good supply of j jrovision and provender is on hand at that e nstitution. The public roads are in tolera- c )ly fair condition. The grand jury recomnend that twenty feet of railing be added to g he west end of the bridge across Fishing ti jreek at Wylie's Mill, and that the large ? ipans of the bridge be properly braced. v Mr. Brainerd McLure, of the State Bulle- d in, has gone to Rock Hill, to act as editor of | J ,he Rock Hill Herald for a couple of months, ! a luring the absence of Capt. J. M. Ivy. The ! c entire management of the Bulletin will de- ? volve upon Mr. T. W. Clawson during the 8 ibove period.
