JAMES A. HOYT. THE OCTOBER ELECTIONS. I The elections which came off in Ohio, Indiana and-West Virginia last week re? sulted ?s most' persons- who had closely watched the canvass in each of them ex? pected. The Republicans carried Ohio by from 6000 to 9000 majority; which is considerably below what might have reasonably been expected from the State, of Gov. Hayes, which polled about 600, 000. votes. It would only-take a change of about one man in every thousand, or three men in even' two thousand, voters jto reverse this result and give the State 'to the Democrats in November. It is more than probable,' however, that the St?te will go for Hayes again, as it was yirtualjy coiiceded to the Republicans by r the nominations made by the Democracy. ' West Virginia, Which was claimed by jtae* 'Republicans before the. election and j which, went for Grant in 1872, has elected (Matthews Governor ,-by 10,000. majority, and is therefore a certain -Democratic State. ' Indiana is another State which was counted by the Republicans, as it gave Grant a majority in 1872 of 24,000, and .is the; home of Morton, the celebrated bloody shirt senator! The Democrats ^have all along counted, the State upon their doubtful list, but.last week it wheeled into the" Democratic' column by electing Blue. Jeans ' Williams Governor by near 5,609 majority,-iuid a; larger ma? jority for the remainder of his ticket. The Republicans rah' (^neral Harrison, ?a grandson of President Wm.

It is now perfectly evident to us that the Republicans do not intend to grant j a joint discussion, und it is equally evident that their Chairman does not intend to keep [ his word. This is not to be wondered at, for we could not expect the man who pub? licly announced in a speech that he "did not want principles but men," to have any very great regard for-his word. We hope all the mounted. ?lubs in the County will be present, for we ??will' have distinguished spjeakers from a distance to meet the Repub? licans', and if they will not ;divide time we can be present.and hear their campaign lies! in order to be' able to refute them.

I am happy to inform you that we have but one rifle club of white men in Edgefield j County, and that exists under and by virtue of chartered rights granted by the Legislature and approved by the Govern? or; and if by virtue of your authority as commandej-in-chief of the military forces of the State, you order them to disband, why.of course they will have to "squan? der" 'and .ground their arms, and will I Eresume reorganize, without arms, as a democratic club, and call their officers, Sresident, vice president, wardens, &c, :c, instead of their high sounding, rebel? lious, military titles. We have thirty odd Democratic clubs in this county, organized of course to de? feat .your, election, and the election of j "your people;"- and I am happy to be the medium of announcing to you, that here? after they propose to abandon the "rebel yell'' which appears to shock your imagi? nation so horribly, and I am requested by the clubs, (Democratic clubs, I mean) to invoke your permission and gracious dis? pensation to allow them to indulge occa? sionally in a good square Democratic "holler,"inateadofthe 4trebel yell." The Tatter, you know, is performed by each |, fellow "hollerin" on his own hook, and it does sound a little provoking to sensi? tive ears; but the Democratic "holler" is done by system, and no man is allowed to "holler" out of time, which makes it smoother, .you know, and not so grating. I trust that. you will see fit to procla mate on this subject, and grant us this innocent .privilege: It gives me much pleasure to inform you also that the fellow whose pistol ^clicked" at yon when you were here on the 12th August, with Judge Mackey, has been disbanded in obedience to your fulmination for proclamation,, I should have said ; I beg pardon,) and has been incontinently suppressed, and Smith & Wesson, have so modified their original pattern, as that they don't "click" worth a cent in the holster, but only "click" now when, they are drawn, cocked and ready for action.

Mackey, presiding Judge of the Sixth Circuit, which embraces the counties in which lawlessness existed in 1870, arrived, in--thin city to-day, and I interviewed him on the situation. He has been connected with the Republican ?party since' i860, is a vice-president of -the Grand Oouncil-of the Union League" of this State and vice president of the National Association War Veterans. It was at his instance that Confederate sol? diers of Lancaster Coifiity exhufredthe bodies of deceased federal soldiers in February, 1874, receiving therefor the thanks of Gen. Sherman and Gov. Neyes, of Ohio. chamberlain's proclamation. He says the proclamation of Governor Chamberlain, of the 7th inst., which vir? tually declares the white population of this State in armed insurrection against the laws, challenges the indignation of every citizen in South Carolina who is aware of the real facts and has any re fard for truth and justice. There have een, no doubt, acts of violence, resulting in loss of life in Ai ken and Barn well, which demand that the severest penalties of the law should be enforced against guilty parties. work of republican managers. ' But those acts are not justly attributa? ble to ?ny determined plan on the part of $be''whites, but were the result of armed collisions, which, in my judgment, have been premeditated by the present republican,.managers of Gov. Chamber? lain's canvass. At least this is the case to the . extent ..that the passions of the blacks" have "been, designedly aroused against the whites', in those sections to the extent of inciting them to assail white citizens or to refuse obedience to process of the courts where the complain? ant is white and the offender colored. The scheme has borne bloody fruits, and doubtless acts of personal vengeance were inflicted, by ^whites' ?n blacks after an actual, conflict had ceased in retaliation for losses suffered during the collisions Four days before, the riot? re/errra t<? in the Governor's proclamation .clftfi1-' menced, I was led to believe, from i?wf- j mation received and from my knowledge of the character of the men engaged in the management of Governor Chamber? lain's canvass, that it formed a part of their .'?'.,-. .' general political plot that armed collisions with the blacks should be forced on the whites, thus sup? plying raw material out of which they would manufacture the bloody shirt to wave before the eyes of the country as a true emblem of the South Carolina De? mocracy, with the view to influence the result of the elections pending in Ohio and Indiana, and thereby the election of Hayes and Wheeler, the candidates which I have supported throughout my canvass in this State. To avert the exe? cution of this sanguinary scheme I called upon the chairman of the Democratic State Executive Committee, at Columbia, and, in presence of Colonel James A. Hoy6 and Judge T. H. Cooke, urged the withdrawal of the Tildes and Hendricks electors, to prevent the negro from being sacrificed to what I thought the Republi? can leaders deemed the supreme political necessity of firing the Northern heart in the interests of Hayes and Wheeler. I I then and there stated the programme,, which appears since to have been execu? ted, and which has culminated in the Ereclamation of the Governor to which I ave referred.. The negro appears, by some, fatality, to be the martyr of the american system, and the balance of humanity certainly appears, so far as he is concerned, to be on the side of those whites with whom he has been associated from early life, and who are disposed to view him, even in his fiercest mood, more in sorrow than in anger. A distinguished writer upon the game of whist has stated, "When in doubt play a trump." The carpet-bagger's code is, "If the Northern interest in the campaign flags have a negro killed." And thus the ardent and pushing blacks are thrown perpetually by their leaders, like living cannon balls, against the solid column of the whites, and the negro is invariably broken by the impact. Indeed, the war itself furnished an illustration of the dif? ference between the, views of Southern and Northern men in utilizing the negro. The Southern white man advanced far to the front to save the negro, while the North sometimes sent the negro far to the front to save the white man. Governor Chamberlain is thoroughly familiar with the best mode of utilizing him in a polit? ical canvass, and understands how to serve him up as a first class horror. the republican procession. One of the most remarkable instances of the mendacity of the age is contained in the statement of the Republican State Executive Committee,' who charge, in their recent .address to the people of the United States,''4Kat the: Democracy in Columbia and its vicinity are so malevo? lent that the Republicans cannot ratify the nomination'of their national candi? dates by a torchlight procession with safe? ty to their persons.

Foremosif among the towns of the up country, Due West takes her part in the demonstrations and work of this cam? paign.' Indeed, no community has en? tered upon the paramount duties before the people of the State with such zealous and patriotic determination as the people of this place have evinced in their ex? tensive preparations for, and their active endeavors to carry out successfully the grand torchlight procession and cam? paign meeting on Thursday night and Friday last. The least we Can say of the affair is, that it was a success beyond the expectations of the most sanguine. At sunset Thursday evening, mounted companies began to file in from all quar? ters and repair to northern end of town, near the residence of Prof. Lee, the point of rendezvous. At half-past seven every house was brilliantly illuminated, and at eight the procession started, headed by the Due West Cornet Band, and brought up by the Abbeville Cornet Band. This vast concourse, extending along Main street for about three-quarters of a mile, after winding through several streets, entered Erskine College Campus on the west side, and surrounded the stand and seats occupied by persons already assem? bled, of whom a large number were la? dies. Judge Cooke, who was present, was Chew introduced byi Prof. Wm. Hood, and responded to the clamors of the crowd- >n an eloquent and forcible man jner. Be1 stated that he did not know 'what part ft was his part to play in this crifflpjtigw, That the duties of the other speakers who were stumping the State were defined and understood. General Hampton bad gone before laying the platform of principles for the Democra? cy; Simpuon had followed! explaining the philosophy, and Conner explaining the law of it, and that his friend here, Gen. McGowan, comes along, stashes in and plays the d?1 generally. Oree thing, however, was certain, that every man and woman in the State had an important work to do in this campaign, and if they exercise the diligence and determination which they should until the sun. of the 7th of November Bet?, it would set upon a people once more and forever free. This large assemblage of "fair women and brave men" argued to his mind that the people of this State mean to shake off the tyranny which has long oppressed them. The Judge's speech treated, for the most part, the character, history and conduct of Gov. Chamberlain, whom ho treated to as good a dose of scathing de? nunciation as we have heard. In giving a history of this Northern adventurer, he said he had come to the conclusion, after ?long deliberation upon the mystery of his origin, that he was a lineal descend? ant of the unrepenting thief on the cross, and that he had been born paralyzed on his moral side. He charged the Governor with nearly every crime in the category, in proof of which be cited his various arbitrary acts. He said Chamberlain had slandered-the people of the State in tele? graphing to Washington that they were an armed camp, and that the round-head and Cavalier were in peril; and that since reading his proclamation he had begun to feel that truly the round-head ana Cavalier are in peril. . He pro? nounced his proclamation the vile?' and most outrageous piece of conduct he ever knew, . Gen. McGowan was then introduced, but had spoken only a short time before it began to rain, and the crowd were dispersed. At an early hour Friday morning it was evident from the thronging of the ! streets that the people of the country around were fully awake to the impor? tance of these demonstrations. Company after company , of mounted men coming in from various directions repaired to the the upot from which the procession had started the evening previous, and at ten o'clock for.med in procession as follows: ' Due West Cornet. Band, carriages with speakers of the day, viz: Judge Cooke, Gen. McGowan, Prof. Conner, Dr, Max? well, Maj. Bradley and B. R. Hemphill, two companies of colored Democrats. Abbeville Colored Band, Diamond Hill Democratic Club, Honea Path Club, Pratt's Sabre Club, McGowan Sabre Club, Level Land Club, Tribble'a Rifle Club, Wright's ;Rifle Club* Abbeville Cornet Band, Cothran's Campaign Club, Long Cane Club, Saluda. River Club, Lebanon Rifle Club. " : : The riders two abreast, about 1,200 in number. The procession filed into the College gronnds and surrounded the stand, now hung with-numbers of flags ! and banners of varied and interesting design. _ uui .., ? jri Prof. Hood, who presided over the oc? casion, introduced Col. Thompson, who, in hi? usually cba?to and polite style en? tertained this immense crowd of eager listeners for an hour or; more. His com? parison of the Republican carpet-bagger to the mole, whose track is only knowu by. the mound of earth it leayes behind, and which.nev.er cau be mefface to face, but in order to be caught must be [tracked up and .shoveled out.from behind^.seems an appropriate one. We regret that want ! of space forbids our commenting further; upon this magnificent effort of the Colo* nel,; ? :? ... . -,dJ trxa ?? ?? m Gen. McGowan .was next introduced, and finished, the. speech he had begun the evening before. After, passing .many en? comiums upon the people ot Due West as consuming the most enlightened and refined community in what he considered the banner County of the State, he han? dled the great issues of the day, with a power we nave never before known him; to exhibit. He spoke long and loud upon the loyalty , net now ! f?lt, and. be? lieved the people of the whole i State felt, to the Uniom Judge Cooke followed in a long heat, addressing himself more particularly to the negroes present, over whom he seemed to have a good deal of control. At the conclusion, of his speech an in? termission ofi half an hour was announced, and one of.'the most interesting features of the occasion witnessed .in the forming ' in procession of theseveral Colored Dem? ocratic Clubs in :tbe. County, , numbering: in all r, about two hundred members, which, headed by the Abbeville Colored Band, marched aciosa'MtbeicampUs'toan immense haaket dinner, prepared for them by the patriotic ladies of the.place? The "afternoon was occupied by DrV Maxwell, Mail Bradley, R. R. I'.emphUl? an d Aaron Mitchell,colored. The-'latter addressed himself in an intelligent man? ner to his colored friends, urging upon the unconverted of them the claims .of Democracy. lo.'Jr.l ? dlYi ,-w. All of the, speakers ur^ed submission to any exercise of rnartiat law! that may be made., Their rights > in. the doming election were recognized, and that the vote should be a fair one.

From Our Special Correspondent. 'ffir^sTEEB, S.,0;, Gfct. 5,1876. Dear Intelligencer : -Thinking yon j might like a few notes from the field, I send you some stray jottings about things/ in general, and General Hampton in par? ticular. This County is sadly behind in point of organization of the Democracy, whilst Swails has his Radical cohorts fully under his control. But little had been done prior to the 4th to extend the can? vass on our side. But yesterday old Wil? liamsburg woke up and shook herself, and greeted Hampton and his colleagues with shouts of welcome from four thou? sand throats. White and black walked side by side in the long procession that did him honor. The speaking lasted from 1 to 5 o'clock, and the immense concourse were orderly and attentive throughout. Good sound speeches, words of sobernesa and truth Were spoken by Hampton, Simpson, J. S. Richardson,' E. W. Moise and M. P. O'Conuor. The colored people were all delighted with Hampton, and said: "That man knows what he talking 'bout?he tell de truth, him in earnest for sure." E. W. Moise has a tremendous stock of apropos anecdotes, and knows just when and where to use them. His speech will be good, because the stories will be re? membered and carry their own applica? tion with them. J. S. Richardson, our candidate for Congress, made-a telling speed) 7 and one little1 incident related by him has- been the cause of the convemoo of several negroes to the support of Hampton, and is talked about all over the country by those who heard. He mentioned a case with which many present were familiar. Before the war a negro boy ran away, was caught and whipped to death by his owner and another white man. They were arrested by a Democratic sheriff, tried before a Democratic judge, by a Democratic jury, the case was prosecuted by a Democratic solicitor. They were found guilty of murder and sentenced to be hung. Being rich they applied for a new trial, a Democratic Supreme Court refused it. (They applied for a pardon to the Democratic Governor (Manning), who said his duty was to protect the helpless, and they were hung. "Now," said Richardson, "when did you ever hear .under Republican rule of a white man being hung for killing a negro ?" "Never?not one," was the answer. He then assured them that Hampton as Gov? ernor would ensure justice to all. At night we had speeches from Mr. i Moise and several colored mea. It was a field day. The ladies were out to smile upon this effort to redeem our home; men, both white and black, were there with earnest faces, giving attentive heed to the things that were spoken. ' The Washington Artillery had a gun I and squad of men here. They fired about fifty salutes, and. every time the cannon spoke another convert was made for Hampton and Reform: The Rads., under SWails, declined a joint discussion?they knew better than to expose themselves to the keen rrgu ments-of the speakers that day. I may write you'again before the can? vass closes. REVILO. OUR NEW YORK LETTER. New York, October \2th, ' V6. THE OCTOBER TRIUMPH. The conclusive news of the great victo? ry in Indiana has inspired the Democracy here with the wildest enthusiasm. Never was a political success won against more fearful odds, and when one contemplates the enormous concentration of radical power and corruption in that single State, it seems almost a miracle that the simple virtue of the people, set in their resolve for reform and purification of public affairs, should have triumphed. Williams' elec? tion is a trophy not merely for the Dem? ocratic party, but for popular government, because it shows that all the enginery of I wealth and power is impotent against the determination of a free and virtuous peo? ple. The few may ,-be corrupted, but the many cannot be. They may for a time be deceived by bad men, but when the people are once enlightened as to their real character, the untrustworthy are driven from power by the sharp scourge of popular suffrage. [ . ? ? THE GAIN IN ELECTORAL VOTES. ' In the State elections, so far held, the Democracy has not merely gaiued on; the popular vote of 1872.two hundred, thousand votes, but has secured the votes of Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, and iWest Virginia; in.all, thirty-six:electoral votes from. States which voted for Grant in 1872. Wfth .Colorado And Ohio yet in. jdoubt, and of all the.Bj^es.yet voting, only two. Maine . and Vermont,, safe for Hayes, there can be no aoubt.ofj the tri? umphant election of Tilden and.Hen? driks by a large majority of the electoral college. o j OHIO WILjt JOIN INDIANA. . . ', ! ; However the official October count may. result in Ohio, that glorious State will in November fall into, line and swell the ? majority for reform., But fewreally dared i to hope.for Democratic victory i there in October, and was never, for a: moment calculated upon, but encouraged and in? spired by the severe; check given to the cortuptionists on the 10th, the Democracy of the Buckeye State will join the Tilden tide iu November with.a majority beyond, dispute. ; 1 THE VOTE OF THE, EAST, Put it down as certain that New Ybrkj New Jersey, Connecticut"andv Massachu-=! setts will casttheir votes'forTilden, No reflecting mrinf'hbw' thinks HayeWlec-\ tion probable. : The only question1 ft ??s to the extent ?ftthajorities.

But, their money, their lies and frauds are all in vain, and they realize despairingly that their day of power and plunder is over. Their.,despair is the despair, of baffled villainy, and they glare about for some new expedient to cheat the people in the desperate hope of saving some remnant of authority. - There is nothing their desperate audacity will not attempt. But I whatever scheme" they attempt the vigi? lance of the people'wiH baffle. wheeler on the defensive.. The Times and Tribune published to? day an extraordinary defense or apology for William A. Wheeler in his black? mailing operation in the matter of the Ogdensburgh and Champlain railroad. Tne apology docs not deny a single alle? gation of the charge, and only states with much parade of words, some facts entire? ly irrelevant to the issue,'and which were stated also when the charge was made. The charge is not answered, but shirked. The allegati?u was not that William A. Wheeler acted without cover of forms of law, but that he abused the forms of law to levy blackmail, and that the very law which he made ose of to force $159,000.00 out of the stockholders, of which $20, 000.00, went directly to his own pocket, was drawn by him and passed by his per? sonal exertions for that purpose, and had no other force or effect whatever than to compel the stockholders to submit to the legalized .plunder. This is the charge. It has'not been met, and cannot be. It is useless for Wheeler to try to dodge the question. He ought to know that this is ! a very bad year to attempt to throw dust in the eyes of the people. Governor Chamberlain Applies for Troops?Martial Law Possible. Washington, October 13,1876. The written application of Governor Chamberlain for troops to aid him in en? forcing the law as the Chi^MA-spstratc of the State of South Carolina arrived here to-day, and was placed before h??author? ities with all the prestige which the- dele? gation of notable South Carolina Federal officials now in Washington, headed by Senator Patterson, could give it. The answer, of the Secretary of War, .after consultation, was that he should await the return of the President, which is ex? pected to-morrow, when action will, it is supposed be taken with energy. It will first assume the form of an executive pro? clamation, as usual, for the disband me nt of illegally armed bodies of men in the State of South Carolina, and then subse? quent steps will, it.is thought, be taken which may bring the State upon the verge of martial law. :?: A calm aud thinking Republican of note said to-night, without giving any explanations, that the President was de? termined to take the whole responsibility at once under the law into his own hands, so far as concerned the preservation of a state of affairs in the South which would allow every man to vote ns he pleased. South Carolina will probably be the first test ground of the problem. The Secre? tary of War is said to have gone to Bal? timore to-night to attend to the affairs of the Northern Central Railway, in which, he can forget the importunities of the carpet-baggers. Senator Robertson is also conspicuous by his invisibility There is something in the South Carolina matter which must, it seems, be left to the nerve of General Grant,..all others dodging.?New York Herald. ? Washington, October 13. The military programme in the South is to be carried out even more fully, .than was anticipated by its friends before, the October elections. The despatches from South Carolina already indicate the char? acter as well as the number of arrests to be made. Senator Patterson has a letter from Governor Chamberlain announcing his intention to declare martial law and call on the administration for more troops if the white people do not surrender their private arms. Patterson communicated this information to the President to-day, and he seems willing to do anything to help the cause of Grantism by securing the vote of two or three Southern States for Hayes at the bayonet's point The Republicans are thoroughly alarmed and will resort to troops in any of the States under the slightest pretext.?New York World. Governor Chamberlain calls for more, troops, and asks for a declaration of mar? tial taw in South .Carolina. There is no resistance ,to arrest, and the law is su? preme every where. When he says troops are necessary to enable him to make ar? rests, he knows full well that he slanders the people of the State, and shows an utter disregard for the truth. APPOINTMENTS FOR THE CAM?
