THE POLITICAL PROSECUTIONS. In the U. S. Circuit Court at Charleston, .Judges Bond and Bryan presiding, the cases for alleged violations of the election laws in South Carolina were called on Thursday last, District Attorney Melton announcing that he was ready to proceed with the case No. 17 against Bates and others, and he moved the Court for leave to amend the information. Upon the suggestion of Judge Bond, however, the argument 011 the motion to quash the information was first taken up. Major Theo. G. llarker, who was charged with this branch of the case, then proceeded to make a lengthy argument, which was replied to by District Attorney Melton, who spoke until 3 o'clock, when court adjourned until 10 A. M. Friday. On' the convening of "he Court, Friday morning, Attorney-General Youmans was heard in reply to District-Attorney Melton in support of the motion to quash the information filed in the election cases. Judge Bond then announced that the Court would take time to consider the questions submitted, and suggested that in the meantime ?*> argument ou the motion to set aside the array j -i 1 U oi grauu auu jieui jurors si.iouiu piuuecu. Meesrs. C. It. Miles and .1. P. K. Bryan, the counsel selected to argue this question, stated that they were not prepared to go on at this time and the argument was accordingly deferred. Colonel J. C. Haskell, one of the counsel for the defendants in the Itichland county cases, moved for a continuance of these cases, stating to the Court that the prisoners were all poor men and were here at great sacrifice of time and means. He argued that the continuance of the cases to the next term of Court at Columbia would be far more convenient to them and would allow them time to procure a material witness, who has left the State. Senator M. C. Butler also urged the Court to grant a continuance. Judge Bond said the defendants had already l)een fully indulged. One of the Richland cases had been called and argument on the preliminary motion had been heard for two days and the cases must go on. Haskell then asked the Court if it would make an order to bring certain of defendants' witnesses at the expense of the government, as the defendants were unable to procure their witnesses otherwise. Judge Bond said that after the requisite affidavits had been made the Court would consider the question. On motion of District Attorney Melton the Court then adjourned until Saturday morning at ten o'clock. On Saturday the Court overruled the motion to quash the informations filed by the District Attorney in the election cases, holding that the offenses with which the parties are charged are not infamous, consequently not to be proceeded against by indictment only. The District Attorney then moved to be allowed to amend the information in the Richland cases by adding the charge of conspiracy under Section 5440 of the United States Revised Statutes. The Court, overruled this* motion, holding that the District Attorney is not entitled to add counts charging the accused with conspiracy with others not named in the original affidavit nor in the information already filed to do acts for which they are now to be tried. Information for the warrant of the Commissioner, Court held, nor any part of the record, gives the accused notice of any such offense. It is entirely a new crime, not an amendment in any sense of the word. It must be considered new information and cannot be filed except upon affidavit and new proceedings. The Court added that this would work a continuance of the Richland cases, or at least post]>one them until late in the trial. The District Attorney stated that he would announce on Monday whether or not he would proceed with the trial of the Richland cases on the original information, or ask leave to file a new one. Counsel for the accused said they would uiake 110 objection to the array of grand and l>etit jurors in this case, as they had proposed, * but would reserve the right to argue the question in other cases when they are called. The Court then anjourned until Monday morning at 10 A. M. On Monday, the case of Bates and others, from Richland county, was taken up. The defence waived the objection to the array of the jury in the case, reserving the question in the other cases which may come up, and a jury was empaneled and witnesses required to appear in Court Tuesday morning, when the case was to proceed. HAMPTON AND SHERMAN. For a day or two there has been a good deal of interesting gossip about the discovery of one of the petty meannesses which John Sherman was guilty of while he was Secretary of the Treasury. During the last Presidential campaign, it will be remembered, there was a pretty sharp correspondence between Senator Hampton and Mr. Sherman, and a "great fuss ' was made in Republican newspapers about Hampton having closed one of his letters with the remark : "My address is Columbia, S. C.M Shortly after this correspondence appeared in X M prim, a scurrilous ui uuie iitt.tciviiiy iiiiiu{jiuu a l?ersonal and political character was published in a Charleston newspaper and was extensively reproduced in Republican newspapers in all parts of the North. Xo particular attention was paid to the attack at that time, as it came l'rom no responsible source, and was treated merely as one of those annoying libels which all prominent public meu are liable to be the victims of in the heat of a political campaign. It was afterwards ascertained that it was written by a South Carolina man employed in the Treasury Department. Recently the article was republished in the Charleston Mercury, a degenerate successor to the pai>er that once l)ore that name, and Hampton's friends insisted that he should take some notice of it. Some days ago Hampton called on Secretary Folger, and showing him that it was written by a man employed in the Treasury Department, inquired" whether the Secretary thought it right to retain a man in his department who would be guilty of such a slanderous assault upon the private character of a Senator. The Secretary said if the article was written by the person supposed he would discharge him. The man afterwards admitted his guilt, and to save his head said he was ordered by a superior officer to write the article. Hampton then withdrew i his demand for the man's discharge, and the latter showed Secretary Folger a letter from Sherman in which Sherman said that as his own official position prevented him from showing up Hampton he would be obliged if the clerk, or some other person acquainted with the facts, would write and publish them. The story coming from well-authenticated sources has been quietly talked about among ! Senators of both parties and has not improved 1 the estimate of Sherman's character. The iirst time Hampton and Sherman met, after the former discovered that Sherman was the accomplice of the attempted assassination of his character, was in the barber shop of the Senate. Sherman came in and remarked : "Well, Governor, 1 guess they are having * ? Summer weather down in your State." Hampton raised his lathered face, glared at Sherman, and, dropping his head back without reply, gruffly said to the barber, "Go 011." Sherman, not knowing that Hampton had found out his secret, was surprised at this cool discourtesy and withdrew from the room, where the barbers stood gaping and wondering what whs in tne wmu. xneir presence nu uuuui prevented tlie South Carolina Senator from denouncing Sherman as he deserved. It is understood that Hampton will seek an opportunity to bring the matter to the attention of the Senate if it can be properly done.? WashiiHjton Special. Registration.?The time for registration of voters to begin is drawing nigh, and we regret to say that we find a good many good men whose feelings revolt at the idea of their having to produce a certificate at the polls to enx title them to cast their ballots. These are men who are "to the manner born," who have lived all their lives in Chester, and who are personally known, i>erhaps, to every manager of elections in the county. They look upon the requirement of the law, in so far as they are concerned, as unnecessary, and feel it to a certain extent to be degrading. There is no reasoning with the feelings of men. A man cannot control his own feelings by his reason. We are free to admit, that the feelings of these old citizens are natural and just. And if all voters were such manner of men as they as are i he law would l>e both foolish and oppressive. Unfortunately, however, we have a large class of voters who are as hard to tell apart as are the separate j>eas in a bushel of black peas. The difficulty of distinguishing the individuals of this class enables them to carry out the' policy of voting early and votingoften, and to do so without fear of detection. This is not so much the case in this section of the State us in other sect ions where the white element [ is only a small silver lining to the great black I cloud that covers the land. In those sections of the State registration is absolutely necessary to the securing of anything approaching to a j fair election ; and as in the State elections the total vote of the State is counted together we j are as much interested in a fair election in the ' black belt as are the white people who live j there. General laws have to be made uniform ! in their application to all parts of the State. Hence, while it may seem to us unnecessary in this part of the State that the registration law should have been enacted, yet we are satisfied that our citizens who now feel aggrieved will realize that it is for the general good and will cheerfully submit to a personal inconvenience, or even unpleasantness, that the State may be saved.?Chester Reporter.
