The Hon. D. W. Voorheex, Democrat,
was ?worn ia M U. 8. Senator from Ia
diana on last Monday, to fill the vacancy
occasioned by the death of the Hon. O.
P. Morton, Republican.
The Senate Committee on nominations
lins not reported upon thc nomination of
Cen. Harlan for the Supreme Bench.
The delay is considered unfavorable to
the Kentucky lawyer.
Capt. John H. Kinsler, of Richland
County, has been nominated by the Dem
ocrats of that County, to succeed Beverly
Nash in the State Senate. Capt. Kinslcr
served in the Legislature before tho war
with somo distinction, and will reflect
credit upon, his County in the regenerated
Senate of to-day. There Is no doubt of
his election.
The trial of L. Cass Carpenter alias
Cupert, commenced on last Monday. A
jury of six whiten nnd BI* colored was
impanelled to try the cnw\ The charge
against Carpenter is that of forgery ; that
ho changed a check drawn by Woodruff
and Jones in bin favor for $720 to $1,720.
A number of witnesses were examined on
behalf of tho State and somo two or three
for the defendant.
At thc competitive drill between the
Abbeville rifles, commanded by Capt.
White, the Hodges compnny, commanded
by Capt. McGee, and the Ninety Six
rifles, commanded hy C?pt. Bonham, at
tho Abbeville County Fair, thc Abbeville
rifles won thc prize of twenty dollars os
tho best drilled military company. Ex
Gov. Bonham presented tho premium
nnd Capt. White responded to lt. Tho
whole affair ls described as a great suc
cess and formed a very interesting feature
of tho exhibition.
James G. Blaine does not want the i
Republican nomination for President in
18f.O, as he is satisfied the Democrats
will elect the President nt that time, but
he believes there will bo a chanco for
him four yean? afterwards, and will take
tho nomination in 1884 if ho cnn get it.
That ?H a long time ahead for a man who
is in feeble health to which to postpone
tho enjoyment of the prizo which is so
highly coveted by his ambition, especial
ly when in all probability if Blaine sur
vives that date his poor dying party will
have been buried forever.
It is now moro tim- probable that
Kellogg will be seated ns 'U. 8. Senator
from Louisiana. Tho majority of the
Committee on Elections will report in his
favor. There will be a minority ropo;t
in favor of Spofford. The parties are no
near a tie In the Sonate that tho Repub
licans cannot afford io admit a Democrat
where it ia possible to prevent it. end if
Kellogg is admitted it will not be because
ho represents tho people of Louisiana, or
was constitutionally chosen Senator, hut
because tho Republicans aro determined
to preserve their small majority in tho
Senate. The Democrats hnvo it in their
power to prevent his admission for a long
timo, and it is to bo hoped they will ex
ercise it.
The Republican members of the United
State* Senate caucussed on last Saturday
from eleven to Ave o'elo?.!;, relative to tho
course they should pursuo towards Presi
dent Hayes and his administration. It
was ascertained that a considerable ma
jority of them differed from the President
on either his "civil sorvice" order, or his
''Southern policy," but the majority also
favor bearing the ills that be rather than
flying to those they know not of by an
tagonising the administration. The re
sult of thiB caucus only shows the more
plainly that the President must conciliato
tho Democrats or fall before their oppo
sition. If bis party waa united it would
bo all they could do, before a solid Dem
ocracy, to sustain him with their small
majority, and whe? ?t is so badly divided,
as to the President no is in tho hands of
the Democracy.
Hon. John Welsh, of Pennsylvania,
has been confirmed aa minister to Eng
land, and the most favorable comment
that has been made of him ia that he ia
not generally known. Borne of the
Northern papers, however, have found
. out enough about him to charge that he
owas slaves in Cuba. Ho denies this,
however, and saya that he has sold his
interest In a farm out there, or in other
words his conscience would not permit
him to owe slaves himself, and therefore
he has sold them to some one else. Even
his name was unknown at first, and went
the rounds of the press as "Walsh." We
have also the assurance that he ia wealthy,
and if our diplomacy goes to the dogs, he
will be able to imitate Picrropont in ex
travagant style, and will no doubt, be aa
much of a lion as his predecessor was re
cently in everything that pertained to
show, or In other words Illustrate the
fable which teaches that a donkey can
put on a lions hide, even if ho does have
to substituto a bray fer a genuine rear.
The opinion seems general that tbo
Frwr?eQt is Jos' .g grsusd Sss thc lack cf
energy and life in his administration.
His peace policy may make him popular
t Uh the people and moro hr?y??vts ia
history than his predecessor in the White
House will be ; bot unless he takes hold
: of the opposition to him moro energeti
cally and displays stronger will and more
clearly j ?fined resolution, he will be a
polit'rat failure, anet fall short of the
Bromvil it position that Is within his
grssp. .john Tyler and Andrew Johnson I
ignored their partios and proved blessings
to their country, but even with their Brm
wilta end undaunted comae, they dug
their own graves in political life. Presi
dent Hayes has Imitated them in ignoring
party, and it is now evident that for the
future he is a dowd politician. It remain?,
however, to be seen whether he hat the
steady purpose and resolution to play the
reform rolo to the end. If be doe?, per
sonally his popt% vity ia assured, and the
country will bo benefited by his course.
Jf he does cot, he viii soon fall from the

Tuesday last, elected President of the
Agricultural and Mechanical Society of
South Carolina. A better choice could
not have been made. Mr. Crayton ia a

agricultural interests of the Stat?, and
the Society may rest assured that its in

TRIAL OP ROBERT HM ALLS, M. c.
'.fier the jury in the case of Carduzo
had rendered a verdict of guilty, the case
of thc Htate against Smalls, a member of
Congress, for ucceptingu bribe wan called.
Smalls, who had ut'<?nded that trial, and
from the verdict of the jury ascertained
that thc colored mendiera could not bc
relied on to acquit persons of their color
without any regard lo the evidence or
law, now became very uneasy, and by his
cour el, Judge Melton, filed a petition tr,
have his case transferred, under the Civil
Hight? Bill, to the United Stales Court,
lie claimed this right on the following
grounds, because he is a person of color:
I thc newspapers und people hud com
mented on his offense ; that he could not
have a fair and impartial trial before
Judge Townsend ; nud because hi? bolds
an office in I'oiign -ss now under contest,
and that this indictment is thc result of
a conspiracy to deprive him of his office.
After full argument of all the points hy
Judger Carpenter and Meltou for the
Petitioner, and Mr. Yuumans and Qen.
Conner for the State, Judge Townsend
over-ruled the motion, mid filed nu elab
orate opinion to sustain his decision, and
I directed the trial to proceed. Judge
Melton gave notice, of exceptions to the
decision of the Court. We do not sup
pose Judge Mellon will take the casu up
j on these exceptions, for they are ton wouk
to claim the serious attention of any
Court, and if they shuuld be sustained
would destroy thc criminal jurisdiction of
the State Courts, a result to which no
State of the American Union, North or
South, would bo willing to submit. The
trinl of Smalls proceeded, and a jury
composed of six whites and six colored
waa empaneled to try the case. The evi
dence against Smalls was clear and con
clusive and the jury brought in a verdict
of guilty. Judge Melton will probably
take tho case to the Supreme Court on
some of the many exceptions he filed to
thc rulings of the Court during thc trial,
but these appeals can only delay the pun
ly merits. L. Cass Carpenter's case will
be next tried, und thu peoplu of Sou th
Carolina will not he satisfied until a fair
and impartial jury has passed upon thc
guilt or innocence of tho great leaders in
corruption in South Carolina, tp wit
Patterson, Chamberlain and Kimball.
THE TURKISH WAR.
The Russian armies for the last three
W0(>1IB, both in Armenia and Bulgaria,
have been moro successful than at any
time sinca their invasion nf Turkish soil.
That the Russians found the subjugation
of Turkey far moro difficult than they
anticipated when they declared war is
app?tent from tho delay of their armies
in accomplishing any decided results and
the defeats with which they have met.
The Turkish power < . far greater than
tho Russians had any conception, and
their soldiors more efficient and valorous
than thoy had credit for. Behind their
fortifications and within their strong
holds they have fought with a valor
worthy of their ancient fame, and their
successes have surprised tho nations of
Europe. It was not thought, however,
that a power weak as Turkey could suc
cessfully contend with Russia, which for
centuries hos ranked as ono of tho first
powers of the world. The common fate
of weak nations contending with strong
ones seems to await Turkoy. Although
the Generalship of tho Russians has been
anything but good, the force ->f numbers
will prevail, and without . o interposi
tion of other powers the fate of Turkey
will be scaled. In Armenia tho Turkish
armies have been signally defeated, and
their two strong hold?, Erzeroum and
Kars, inverted by tho Russians, and un
less Muhkta Pasha, commanding at
Errcroum, promptly receives reinforce
ments, both these places must surrender,
and with their surrender the whole of
Armenia will fall into tho hands of the
Ruesiaus, and, once in their power, tho
Turks can never recover it by nrms. The
Russians have also been successful in
several engagements in P-'garia. They
have invested Plevna, and Osman Pacha
is now cut off from his bases of supply,
and cannot hold out' many days longer
unies?, he is relieved by tho forces under
Mehemet Ali and Chevket Pachas, which
is not probable, as thoy would have to
meet the Russians in the open field.
Osman Paella's men aro said to bo de
privations aud hardships. Osman's sit
uation is now so critical that it seems he
will be forced either to surrender bis
army or to cut his way out through the
Russian forces. The Turkish reverses of
the last two weeka have produced great
excitement in Constantinople. There
has been for some time a peace party in
Constantinople, with which the Porte is
said to sympathize, hut tho war fever is
?n high that even the authorities aro
afraid to advocate it. Placards were
posted at Stamboul calling on all patric
to rise against the government, as it wes
secretly negotiating with tho Russians,
and to murder Mahmond Darnad Pacha.
Forty of the principal servants of c_
Sultan M?rad were arrested and put to
death because of their engaging in a con
spiracy to leinstate Murad on the throne.
The excitement was greatly increased by
the rumor circulated by the advocates of
peace that the Prophet had appeared to
the Sultan and ordered him to conclude
a peace. If the Turka ahould be induced
lo believe this, peace wiil soon bs made,
unless tho terms prescribed by Russia
should ba too burdensome, and thu
Prophet should again appear and order
t?em to 3ght to the bitter end,,

THE SILli ER DOLLAR.
The vote la the Bouse of Represents'
ti vos on the question of resurrecting thc
silver iv>tlar shows that the members of
tho lower House of Congress, who como
directly f-om the people of tho various
States, kr-tw the sentiment of their con
stituents, and, without regard to party,
are willing to shape the financial policy of
the nation according to the justice of the
case and the necessities of the times.
The bill known as Bland's Silver Hill
wits, under a suspension of the rules,
passed and sent to the Senate by :v vole
of one hundred and sixty-three yea? to
only thirty-four naya. Its provisions are
ns follows :
That there shall be coined at the sev
eral mints ol' the United States silver
dolla m of the weight of 412J grains Troy,
of standard silver, ns provided in the act
of January 18, 1837, on which then
shall be tho devices and superscription*
provided by said act, which coins, to
gether with all silver dollar-? heretofore
coined by the United Stales of like
weight and fineness, shall bc a legal ten
der at their nominal value tor ail debt"
and dues, public and private, except
where otherwise provided by contract
and any owner of Kilver bullion msy de
posit the same nt any United States coin
age miut or assay office io bc coined in'.*,
such dollar? for his benefit upon thc
same terms ami conditions as gold bul
lion is deposited for coinage under ex
rating law.
SECTION 2. All acts and naru of act
inconsistent with the provisions of th ii
act are hereby repealed.
If the Senate should concur in this bil
and thc President approve it, which i
likely, a great stride towards iiationa
prosperity will be taken. The failure li
coin silver dollars hus already grcatl;
oppressed thu people ol' our nation b;
imposing a much heavier tax upon th
industries ol'the nation than is necessar
to faithfully carry out the contracts t?
the government ami discharge its ju?
debt?. The present bonded debt of on
country was contracted at a time ?he
silver ami gold dollars were both in cit
culatioti, and by the terms of the contrac
under which the bonds representing sue
debt were issued, il was to be paid i
specie, or in gold or silver. Since til
war thc supply of silver has becou
abundant, and the bondholders, togCtllt
with the leading capitalists of the cum
try, have speculated oil'of the people I
inducing the passage of an act causil
tho ecs-ation of coining silver dollar
whereby ult specie debts were practical
made payable in gold alone. The dille
once in the relative value of a gold and
silver dollar has thus been changed fro
par to a premium, on an average,
about nine cents in favo- of gold, at
thus these bondholders in receiving thc
interest or principal obtain nine p
sent moro than their contract l?gitim?t
ly calls for, and thc people have to mal
up this sum or gratuity, which Rcpub
can legislation hus given them, hy an i
crease in taxation. Such a policy h
neither justice nor expediency to sat:
tion it Gold and silver dollars were
equul value before thc legislativo d
crimination agninst silver was porpcti
ted. They will again be equal in val
if this discrimination is removed. Hu
dreds nnd thousands of dollars will
Huved to the people of the nation, and
abundant supply of specie as a m?dit
of exchange cnn be obtained. We ho
thc time has at last arrived when tin
will be a little legislation in favor of t
TTiiwiu jfcifjMi-, mm nov exclusively ui i
bondholder or moneyed corporation,
is about time for this government to
sumo pitying its debts according to ct
tract, and ceaso a policy which pay
certain class of its creditors an equi'
lent of ono dollar and niuo cents
what it only promised to pay one doll
The passage of the above bill will aeci
this result.
THE FRENCH CRISIS.

The Councils formerly stood : Cotiser

thirty-nine; one doubtful; and :
equally divided. Considering tho

Republican gains aro very signifia

College in 1803; studied law; was ad

against 1(5,071 votes for A. S. Wallace.
Republican.
The Democrats would indeed be hard
to please il they were not satisfied with
tho result of the Fall elections which
have passed. Fifteen States have voted
for Slate officers, namely : New York,
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland,
Virginia, Ohio, Mississippi, Wisconsin,
Iowa, Minnesota, Kansas, Nebraska and
California. Of these, only five went for
Tilden last Fall-New York, New Jer
sey, Maryland, Virginia and Mississippi.
AH the others voted for Hayes. Thia
year, all five of the States which went
for Tilden have been carried by the Dem
ocrats, and Pennsylvania, Ohio and Cali
fornia have gone Democratic by hand
some majorities. Local elections were
alsu held in Connecticut, which seem to
indicate Republican gains, but they are
not substantial, and result from the lack
of effort on the part of the Dem?crata.
In New York we have gained at least
one Senator und six representatives in
tho State Legislature. These facts prove
il...? Hm nountrv realizm the ennrmitv nf
the crime perpetrated in the last election,
and is determined to punish it by driving
from power the party which championed
the fraud. The remark of Gov. Tilden,
that "the men who are elected must bo
inaugurated," is thc talisman of victory,
and wherever it is inscribed as tho battle
cry, victory perches almost invariably
upon the standard which bears it. The
changes in tho next Electoral College
will bo immense, if things stand as they
do to-day. Last yeur Hayes had 185
votes, counting Pennsylvania. Ohio, Cal
ifornia, Louisiana, Florida and South
Carolina. Without these States, Tilden
had 184. These States have an aggre
gate of 75 votes; heneo if they he taken
from Hayes' vote, or thc Republican ma
jority as counted in tho Electoral College
last year, and added to tho Democratic
vote, the figures would stand-Republi
can, 110; Democrats, 250 ; or a majority
of 149, which allows the Dem?crata to
loso seventy-four votes from States they
now have, and still elect thc next Presi
dent, in a financial point of view, these
elections equally clearly speak thc con
demnation of the policy of republicanism.
The silver dollar has bee. ; iud-arly han
dled by all, and most of tho conventions
havo passed resolutions favoring it, in
deference to the people's will. Resump
tion has also beeu treated with disfavor,
and a postponement demanded by the
people at tho polls. Altogether, thc re
sult is most encouraging, not only to the
Democratic party, but to all true friends
of tho Republic and its Constitution.
Honest John J. Patterson has. it ia
said, at last yielded to tho pressure of his
Republican friends, and consented to ask
for an investigation of the charges against
him. What is to be the result of this de
termination en his part is difficult to pre
dict, but for our part wo believe it will
remain an unexecuted determination, il
will bo surprising if he should ask for ar
investigation, for if it is properly con
ducted it cannot have any other conclu
