THE EDGEFIELD AFFAIR. The Edgctield Advertiser gives (hefollowing par? ticulars of the outrage perpetrated upon the peo? ple of that town, to which allusion was made in unr columns last week: A little more whiskey and cajolery for the igno? rant and misguidad blacks, and a little more un? provoked provocation for the astonished and in? sulted whiles, and the quiet village of Edgcfield would, last week, have been the scene of fearful and sanguinary transactions. Edgefield, recon? structed (as is all South Carolina) in the most ap? proved Radical style, is now a victim to the hate, Venom, the- depravity of a set of men who Care hot for the prosperity and happiness of herself and her children, but whose sole objects are place, plunder and revenge. The treachery, the lying, the contemptible meanness, the entire ab? sence of everything manly or honorable, that characterize the proceedings of this set of raen, almost surpass belief. For the last month, four or five deputy State constables have been sojourning in our midst, said to have been sent here by Governor Scott, upon the wilful and malicious representation of the renegade Eichelberger, as a kind of body guard for the latter. Eichelberger having desert? ed his own race, and his own race having openly and very appropriately signified their inexpressi? ble contempt for him, is a prey to mingled feelings of fear and revenge. But that any one wishes to take his life, or has threatened to do so, is all non? sense. He was burned in effigy some time ago, and since then he has been treated with silent contempt. And there the matter ends. He has not been in the slightest degree molested, and. his body guard are enjoying a comfortable sinecure, for which our overburdened people must pay. And for the last four Saturday's our town has been thronged with negroes, men, women, chil? dren, idle, gaping, evidently expecting the occur? rence of something unwonted. During this time we have heard that a negro company was being raised by Eichelberger. Indeed we know that many negroes signed their names, or made their marks, as metibers of this company. On the 4th of July, much of the day was. spent in drilling. On Thursday afternoon last, to the utter as? tonishment of the peaceable and law abiding citi? zens of our town, two hundred and forty guns, with ammunition according, escorted by Eichel? berger, Hubbard, and some forty or fifty negroes, arrived in Edgefield. These negroes had been previously warned to meel these arms at the Pine House Depot. And many of them, deliberately and without a word of warning, quitled the ser? vice of honest white men and repaired to guard the arms which are to enforce respect from the people of Edgefield towards Eichelberger and his minions. Nor is this the worst. After they had guarded the arms into the tow a, they quietly re? turned to the service they had so deliberately quitted. Pretty business truly ; and yet the whites said nothing, and stood it as beat they could. Stood it with calm dignity, just as they have stood the many incendiary harangues and yelling mobs that have so often?and lately too?disgraced our | streets, our park, our Court House. The arms having been escorted in triumph to the public square, one of the State Constables, Bellinger by name, said to be commissioned by Scott as Captain of Eichelberger's company, pre seated to the sheriff an order from the Governor for a portion of the jail, as a depository for the guns. This order was complied with. And now, day and night the jail is guarded by negro sol? diers with arms in their hands. Fifteen or twenty deluded fools have been seduced into tbis wretch? ed business. They are in regular military ser vice, receiving lawful pay and rations. God help them when they shall be out of military service, for in these regions they will not find?nor should they?either friend or service. This $1(5 a month which the white people are paying them now, for guarding the arms which are to cut their throats, is quite enough. When we are done paying these doughty negroes for their military servic::, we should certainly wash our hands of them. Let them live upon their military glory. Perchnps Eichel? berger will take them all out to his home and sup? port them forever. We have no doubt he will. As regards'the militia company of one hundred ?all negroes? they have not yet actually appeared upon the field. We Understand, however, that they are to be diligently drilled during the latter three days of the present week. And thus matters stand in Edgefield; and, without a doubt, all these proceedings are high? handed and unjustifiable outrages upon an un? offending people. The Governor derives his au? thority for calling out the militia by virtue of a "joint resolution authorizing the Governor to em? ploy an armed force for the preservation of the peace;" and he is therein authorized to call out the militia, "when in any connty in this State it shall become impossible, from any cause, to en? force the laws and keep the peace by the ordinary civil jro:ess," whose duty it shall be to "quell each disturbances nnd arrest the guilty parties."' Now, when has the Sheriff of this District failed to enforce the laws? Never. We defy Governor Scott, Eichelberger, Hubbard, or any of tho crew, to show one instance of the Sheriff having failed to make arrests where warrants were lodged in his hands. The white people and the black peo? ple of this community and this District live., and have lived, in peace and harmony ; and We chal? lenge these fomenters of discord to produce evi denco to show that a single murder has been com? mitted in Edgefield District within the last three years on account of political vietet. Bah! the upshot of the whole abominable mat? ter is, that this mischievous and mercenary man, Eichelberger, want's the sheriff's office, and has been at work with that view. He and others of the mongrel clan, have told Mr. McDavk, the sheriJ, he must appoint a negro jailor, which Mr. MeDavit refused, and still refuses to do. And now we hear that young Covar, the jailor, is a no? torious bushwhacker, ?;c, and Gov. Scott joins his order to that of Eichelberger & Co., that he be dismissed. So young Covar goes by the Board. He is not, and never has been, a bushwhacker; those who tell this lie know it to be a lie. This negro guard around our jail, and this con? templated negro militia, will do no good in Edge field. They are emphatically uncalled for and un? necessary. Already the feeling of bitterness and exasperation is greater than at any time since the close of the war. The Advertiser invokes Governor Scott to visit Edgefield and examine for himself. interview with governor scott. Two of the distinguished citizens of Edgefield, Ex-Governor Bonhau and General Butler, visited Govornor Scott, at Columbia, to represent to him how totally unnecessary were the arms, the sol diern and the constables lately imposed upon the people of that County. They have returucd. Of the interview, the Edgefield Advertiser remarks: Gov. Scott received them with courtesy and heard them with consideration. He assured them that he had not authorized the organization of any militia company in our town or District. That he had merely sanctioned the employment of a suffi? cient, guard for the arms and ammunition here as a measure of precaution, representations being constantly made to him of most lawless doings in different parts of the district! Bosh ! His Excel? lency, if be chose, could very easily indeed find out that all these representations are, from begin? ning Le end, groundless and malignant lies. The gunti are here, and, authorized or unauthorized, then* seems to be a strong probability that negroes will be regularly drilled. ?
