Every Democrat is earnestly urged to do everything in his power to preserve thc strictest decorum on tho part of thc Democracy of our County. Let no cir cumstance occur to excite or hamms any of us into intimidation, resistance or strife. The candidates on the Republi can State ticket are the canvassers to de cide and declare thc result of thc elec tion, and of omer if they can obtain the slightest pretext to do so, they will count themselves in. Let us not assist in elec ting them, bj* so neting as to afford any ground whatever to rej jctourv >te, which if tho race ia a close one, may decido the result in thc State. Our pooplo hnvo .iiirnit much in tho w.ay of inlsrenre.iftn tntion, nnd even efforts to securo trouble have been made by the other side. Tluy have not succeeded yet, nnd wo confident ly trust there will be no conflict. If there ia any, it will originate witli the Republi cans. Wo want a fair and quiet election. Purify the Stute oy voting for Hampton, and thereby consigning to ignominy the carpet-baggers and scaltaxcays who have robbed the State for eight years, ARRESTS TALKED OF. We havo information that a certain party in Anderson has a list of names of persons who aro to bo arrested on hatched up charges of intimidation, ?tc. Tho parties whoso arrest is contemplated have violated no law, and will cheerfully submit md givo bail whenever desired, but we again tako this occasion to warn thc colored people of this County to go Blow in making affidavits against our citi w>nB white or black who have violated no law, for wo asauro them we intend to hold them to n rigid account before the courts, and if thoy aro indiscreet onough to follow the advice of their villainous leaders in regard to this, they may count ?surely on a terra in the State penitentiary. Whenever tho arresting business begins in this County it will not he a one-sided affair, for wo intend to prosecute every Republican who is guilty of any crime, and some of tho leader.- who aro trying io institute this infamous courso of arrest ing innocent mon for political uses will bo the first ones to taste the bitter fruits of thoir own game. Wo do not wish to ijo misunderstood. If any man, black or white, violates the law wo do not wish to shield him, bntdesire that he he punished. The State laws are amply vindicated herc, and no violence exists. Our people do not fear arrests in either State or Fed oral Courts, "but if they are to begin for political purposes, we !p.edgo those who get them un{ith*i?ur pooplo will prose cute them, not for political effect, but for the p?rpose of inflicting that punishment which justice will demand they shall re ceive, .i_ ' ? .

I es pecially call on tho Marshals appointed to do their duty fully and fearlessly, and thereby preserve tho good name of An derson and Anderson Democracy. It is the duty of every citizen to go to the polls ?nd vote. JOHN R. COCHRAN. HORE RADICAL INFAMY. The latest phase of Republican infamy is being developed in the pinn which they aro mnturiug to begin a day or two before tho election, to arrest the influen tial men and those who aro active in this canvass all over the State. Tho charges will of culi ive be false, but thoy think by keeping these men in prisou until afler the election thoy cnn corry tho State, as they calculate upou such arrests intimi dating the masses of our party. In this, however, they are mistaken, for ovcry illegal and groundless arrest but makes our people Armer and moro determined. When ono leader is arrested thcro will bo two moro to take bia place. Every man itv South Carolina who is an honest patriot is n leader on our side, and any ono of them will vote and work for Hampton on tho day of election if every other Democrat in tho State was arrested. We are' simply determined to elect Hampton, and there is no use to try to prevent it by making unjustifiable arrests. They frighten no ono, and only inspire those who are left at liberty to make greater exertions. Our people cannot bo intimidated. They expect every infernal machination which can be devised by men who havo neither character nor con --_i -..lu:_.t_- J_ -111 .ymiiw. ??>?>? ?. ---J.uwj M*H MO ????? carse the column of reform to stop short of tho glorious victory which is sure to , reward our ofTirta on tho 7th day of this month. To tho Republicans wc say, you do not dare attempt so villainous a course as making wholesale arrests on the eve of | tho election, now thal yt ur bold conspi racy against tho liberty of our people has been heralded,,to the world. You do no), fear personal violence, becauso you know thc Democrats do not desire to harm you, but you dread the day when retributive justice shall overtake you, and the discovery of your plans is every ji?y bringing grim terror before your guilty consciences. Wc appeal to all honest colored men to leave the party which is so infamous ms 1 tb seek to pollute- justice by making tho ?? aw, which is intended for ail, servo the purpose of re-electing thsir corrupt can-, didates.

Aiken U a competent ami an able niuo as welt a* t nat i re of the State, while Car' pettier U incompetent and a parpet'bagger'. EDITORIAL NOTES. B<? ?ra? but prudent, is our advice le the Democrat?. Do nothing which can he misconstrued into anything like in timidation. We cannot afford to have the vote of Anderson County ignored. If tirant had been as prompt in send ing soldiers to fight Sitting Hull Inst spring ss he is in scuding them to fight thc imaginary insurrectionists in South Carolins, our nation would not to-day he mourning the death of the gallant Custer and his brave men. Next Tuesday will bc the Waterloo of Republicanism in tho United States. Orant, Taft and Chamberlain have sealed thc fate of poor Hi^es, and iu the effort to hold up the rotten fabric of Republi canism 'n South Carolina they have de molished the decayed structure in thc Union. Judge Mackey eloquently arraigns dov. Chamberlain before the people of this State for his flagrant treachery, criminal neglect of duty, and shameless disregard of truth and decency, and dubs him "thc chief political conspirator of the present age." No decent mau in this State can afford to vote for such a creature. Judge Mackey was serenaded one eve ning last week in Lancaster, and respond ed in a tinging speech for Hampton and reform. Ile phices Hampton's majority in South Carolina at fifteen thousand al thc least estimate, Judge Mackey is n shrewd politician, and bas shown much accuracy in his political estimates here tofore. The indications arc that he will be correct in this instance. Perseverance will accomplish it. Judge Cooke has declared his intention to have Chamberlain in thc penitentiary within six months, but we arc inclined to doubt thc judge's ability to do so, because this Massachusetts governor is u capital fellow when it comes to running from danger, and if he happens to get cornered he knows just how to hide himself from night, even if it is necessary to get under a bcd to do it. Don't vote for him, col ored men, He has never properly pro tected your race, and never will do it. Every man in South Carolina should go to thc polls before the box is opened on Tuesday morning, nud remain there during the day to work for Hampton, not only by voting, but also by getting others to vote for him, and to bc present to challenge the vote of any incompetent person they may know. When the polls close, a committee of discreet and intel ligent men should be appointed to re main ami see thc counting done. Work ! Work ! Work ! is our motto, until the last vote is polled on next Tuesday. Victory will be the reward of such a course. Thc Democrats of Knuth Carolina voted for Reuben Tomlinsoti for Govern or four years ago, and he lins since that Lime occupied n position of sonic respecta bility, but his original pioclivitics have it last got control of him again, and bc is now stumping it for Chamberlain. As lie has como to the resell* of the plunder ers of South Carolina bc must'be classed ivith them. "Dirds of n feather will [lock together," and Tomlinsoii has il i own thc tribe to which he belongs by Ids recent course, und thereby gives nd lit ional proof of the necessity for straight )Ut action, for whenever we support a Republican wc get neither thanks nor irofit for doing so, and sooner or later he s sure to prove unworthy of trust or con idoncc. Poor Tomlinson now has not he friendship nf Republicans nor the espect of Democrats. Tho election laws of this State aro .athcr ambiguously worded, and some inubt has arisen from an examination of bc statutes as to whether thcro is to be mc genend ticket on which the names of undidatcs for Presidential Electors. JongrcRs, State and County officers arc o bo placed. This question hus been lubruittcd by thc State Democratic Exec itive Committee to Attorney-Genera! Stone, who hos decided that there U to bt >ne general ticket, on which will nppea< he names of persons voted for, togethei .villi an expression of opinion os to tlx Constitutional Amendment in relation t< mblic BCIIOOIB, regulating thc school ta: ind its distribution. This settles th mestion Anally for tho coming election Wo hope every D?mocratie voter will sc to it that the Constitutional Amcndmec get? a full voto in its favor. Lot us strive to make our nation' entry upon the beginning of the secon centennial of ita birth os glorious in Sout Carolina ss tho natal morning of th Palmetto State one hundred years ag? The trying days which developed 01 Marions, Sumters and Moultries hn\ gone into history as the grand birthdti of our nation and of tho truo spirit i liberty. Let it bo recorded on next Tue day that these achievements have be? wrested from impending destruction nt re-established in perennial youth at strength, end when they have travel down the stream of human generatio for another hundred yesrs, dispensii the blessings pf pure, just und beni] government to ?ll the .citizens of o noble State, from the greatest to t poorest, thc second cciitennary morn w ring out tho paeans of rejoiciug whi will swell from every heart commoinoi ti vc of tho double deli vcrar.ee of a gio oua commonwealth. Tho most extensi ve and ir*posipg <3 play over attempted by any politli party in this country took place in N York on last Thursday night. It is o mated that fully sixty thousand pen? wcro in tho line of procession alone, s'dcs.thc. hundreds nod thousands v thronged tho : streets of the natte metropolis. It1 was a grand outpour of tho Democracy in honor of Gov. '. den. : tho ut'xt President of the Uni State*. . Working men, regardless local differences, were represented their elabe. The d?monstration ci menced at half-post seven o'clock in evening, and at ODO o'clock on Fri morning,Governor Tild?n was still ex pyjng his position in front of the Eve House reviewing thc procession. Tl were hundreds of curious ?v !ce* rc] sooting the traditions of tbe past and country's hopes of the future. Such ?ration from the people tost i fica thc gratitude and esteem in which our can didate for President is held by all classe* of society where he is best known. Rev. Richard Fuller, J). D., one of the ' moat eminent Hud boioved ministers of the Baptist denomination in this country, ended his labors upon earth on Friday morning, 20til of October, in the 72nd year of his age. His death was not un expected, as his health has been failing for a year or moro. He wan pastor of the Elltaw Flaco Baptist Church in bal timore, which church wa* built expressly for him. Dr. Fuller was a native of Beaufort, S. C., ai d while he was study ing law at that place, he was converted under the preaching of the famous revi valist, Rev. Daniel Baker, and afterwards consecrated his rare gifts exclusively to the work of the ministry. His intellect ual jwnvers and preaching abilities were regarded wonderful and extraordinary, and aa a ripe scholar he had few equals. As a kind, humble, devoted Christian, Dr. Fuller was more widely beloved and respected than for any of his extraordi nary gifts as a preacher, and his memory will bc tenderly cherished in grateful hearts throughout this land. Dr. Fuller wa:? ordained a minister in 1833, and set tled at Baltimore in 1817. Frac schools arc the most sacred in stitutions under the care of our State government, and the party which would squander its funds would steal thc prop erty or destroy the liberty of any citizen. The Republicans have squandered the school fund of this State repeatedly, and our free schools have only beth run ihree months in thc year. One-third of the amount due Anderson County for scho< i purposes has been held back, and t'.tc poor children of the County have b -en deprived of the educational advantages which were due them. Our people paid their taxes, and yet when th? money reached Columbia n portion of it stuck in the State Treasury and was never re turned. Remember, colored men, when ever you vote for Chamberlain and his ticket you vote to keep your children in ignorance. It is a crime against the ..sing generation and against posterity for any man to vote the Republican State ticket in South Carolina. It is composed nf adventurers, corruptionists and incom petents. There is not a single good nom ination upon the whole ticket. A man who votes this ticket is either politically ignorant or he is thoroughly dishonest. Governor Chamberlain, with all the bayonets of the Federal government nt his back, with all his boldness and reck less asseverations, with all his shameless disregard of truth, decency and honor, and with all his attempted intimidation of white and colored Democrat;-, is sure id certain to fail in his mighty efforts "to make and keep South Carolina as securely Republican ns Vermont." His name will soon sink back into obscurity, hut his recent efforts to throttle a free people will outlive the deepest and black est of the hideous strains upon the politi cal annuls of South Carolina, and his memory as a public man will go dow to posterity a1? the incarnation of a reei-less ambition, which would degrade his own race for selfish purposes and political ad vantages. In striking contrast, we look upon our gallant and honored standard bearer, Wade Hampton, the honest patriot and sincere friend of humanity, who is actuated solely by a desire to de liver his native State from the thraldom of thieves and merciless adventurers, and who will be proclaimed victorious by tho peaceful ballots-mute and eloquent symbol? of freedom-cast by the honest and undismayed voters, white and col [ired, who have resolved to redeem their homes and firesides from profligate and tyrannical rulers. Every rote catt for Hayes and Chamber lain is a rote to deprive the citizen of his ronstitutional riyhts and to antagonize the races._ THE LANCASTER GRAND JURY. We give beiow an extract from thc pre sentment of the Lancaster Grand Jury, and respectfully refer it to Judge Reed for Iiis consideration and careful study. It seems that these Grand Juries in Soutb Carolina are determined to expose Gov ernor Chamberlain, despite proclama tions, &c. The statements of this Grane Jury correspond with tho allegations o tho Anderson Grand Jury, and are nj follows : The grand jury deem it proper to mak< reference to thc cha.-ges made by the Gov ernor of the State to tho lawlessness, vio lenee and insubordination of tho peoph of the State. These charges and the im Eutations cast upon the citizens of Soutl 'andina have done them great :ijustic? and reflect upon the character and gooi conduct of tho people. Wc aro now spectacle to the world ; our State floodei with troops aud tho Governor of the Stat {?reclaiming his inability to execute tb aws. Tho grand jury have made dili gent inquiry concerning theso charge and imputations, so far as thc County < Lancaster is embraced in them. Hie have taken the sworn statements of th sheriff, clerk of the court and all of th pcaco officers of the county, except or j of the trial justices, who was inacccssibl (being out of the county) to thc jury, an these officers all agree that there has n< been thc first instance of any resistant to the execution of lawful authority. Tb sheriff, together with all other mimsterii officers, has been able to execute cvei process without tho intervention of ar pe?se. No insurrection or domestic vi lenee has occurred in tho county ; pea? i exists. And nnivonol rnxfoty I? ?Miirn is true that "we are passing brough a p lilied crisis warmly coutestcd in tl whole State, and our i>eople aro earnest striving for better times, out at thc sar time they menu no insurrection, no i sistauce to lawful authority, and no d mcstic violence. Our courts are reguh ly convensd,- violations of law puntehc and th? wh?lo machinery'of tho com and of judicial procedure ia uninterm ted and unobstructed. The jury belie and arc satisfied that the proclamation tho Chief Magistrate of the State of Sou Carolina, dated 7th October, 1876, is u true in fact, sa far os it applies to t County of Lancaster ; that tho tenden of its terms is to intimidate the voters the icouuty ; that it is tyrannical in spirit, and oppressivo to a liberty-lovi people. V's regard tho candidacy oft present Governor of South .Carolina re-election a misfortune to the pvop inasmuch as we can find no cause, otl than his candidacy, for the issuing of si proclamation. V/c are informed and believe that t.r . belonging to tho State have been dis* buted in some parts of this county cont ry to tho laws of the ?State, and are n : ia possession of persons not entitled them. Wo present this matter asastai ?og menace to tht peace of the good p j plo of Lau caa ter. JOHN B. ERWIN, Foreman Do nut fail tn br at tltr ?xiii* when they arco/tened on Tuesday morning. tl?.y.. RU?'KH iiS THE r?TU.VTIOii. Thc fol lowing stntemenU have been re peatedly published, und np to thia time no denial of their truth bas been given in. It ii a gre U outrage for the Secreta ry of Var to use his office for partisan political purpose*, but that seems to bc thc order of thc ?lay just at this time. He has the example of the President to sustain bim, as well aa that of Chamber lain. The positions of our Government have, under (?rantistn in thc Nation, and Chamberlaiiiism in the State, become thc personal property of the persons who hold them, and arc used to defeat thc will of tin; people. Gen. Huger is the command er of this department, and his reports shout 1 not be treated as they are said to have been in the subjoined article : WASHINGTON, October 20. It is charged here that the War De partment ha* in its possession several re ports from General Huger, the com manding officer of tho Department pi*the South who is now in South Carolina, which set forth 'hat there is no violence in tho State, and that none is threatened, and that the use of SO large a body of thc army is not warranted by the condition of affaira in thc State. It is also charged that these reports are deliberately sup pressed upon thc order of Mr. Cameron. - Cincinnati Empdrer, . um - - Huston's Hay lu Charleston. CHARLESTON, S. C.. Oct. HO. Ham tito n'a reception to-day was a wonderful ovation. Over 10,000 voters, marching four abreast, were in the pro cession, 2,000 of whom were mounted. The column presented a curious scene, all classes being strangely intermingled ; venerable lawyers, ill-clad workingmen, prominent merchants mid colored long shoremen laking their places in the line without thc slightest discrimination. The route of the procession was hand somely decorated with national flags and mottoei. Crowds of ladies waved hand kerchiefs from every window. The whole city seemed to have turned out, and tiie continuous cheering with which Hampton was everywhere greeted was | ?hcnominiil for staid old Charleston, lampton addressed an immense meeting in Wliito Point Garden at noon, and to night he spoke in the Academy of Music to the colored citizens, who have crowded thc building to hear him.
