THURSDAY HORNING, MAY 15, 1879.
Governor Hampton hns paired off and
returned from Washington. His health,
we presume, would not permit him as yet
to undergo tire fatigue of Senatorial life.
Governor Garcelon, of Maine, was ;ii
attendance upon thc Medical Association
in Atlanta last week, and expressed him*
?elf most hopefully upon thc political
outlook for 1880. He thinks tho Demo
crate will sweep the country, and believes
that they will even carry Maine, Messrs.
lilninc and Hale to thc contrary notwith
standing.
Thc army appropriation bill was put
upon its passuge in thc House of Repre
HentiitiveB on Monday, without tho sec
tion which induced the President to
veto it. The House by a vote of 101 to
109 refused to pass the bill without thc
Rection prohibiting the uso of troops at
thc polls. Tho Grcenbackers, with thc
exception of Mr. Ladd of Maine, voted
with tho Republicans. This v jte is a
favorable indication of tho policy of the
Democrats, for il shows that they do not
intend to surrender entirely to Mr. Hayes
and his boss-Zach. Chandler.
Tho President has the thanks of both
parties for his recent veto- Ibo thanks of
tho Republicans becauso he has stood up
to them and secured tho uso of tho army
to influence elections, and of tho Demo
crats because he has had thc hardihood to
proclaim his party's approval of military
interference. The Democrat* ought not
to want a better campaign document
than his veto message. It should bo
scattered broadcast all over the Republic,
that tho liberty-loving portion of our
people may see the dangers to which Re
publicanism is bringing us.
Tho monument erected to the memory
of thc Confederate dead by the ladies of
South Carolina was unveiled in Colum
bia on Tuesday last. It is situated on
thc left and in front of the Capitol build
ing, and Is a fitting testimonial of tho
fidelity and honor with which the women
of Curolina cherish, in common with tho
sterner sex, tho memory of that great
and noble throng of bravo patriots who
acted out tho sublime motto of our Stato,
"Anima opibusquc parati." Tho unveil
ing ceremonies were performed in a very
beautiful manner in tho presenco of an
immense crowd of visitors, concerning
which we will present a moro extended
account in our next issue.
Tho Savannah Valley Railroad corpo
rators at their mooting at Lowudesvillo
on Wednesday, the 7th inst., decided to
press forward tho construction of tho
proposed lino, and will thoreforo appeal
to the citizens cf tho Bovornl townships
through which tho road is to pass for a
vote of such a tax as will ensure its com
pletion. Tho subject will bo fully dis
cussed, and tho many advantages which
tho road will confer upon the Western
section of upper South karolina will bo
demonstrated by tho advocates of tho
road. It runs after leaving Anderson
Court Houso through ono of the finest
sections of our country, which hns hith
erto remained undeveloped on account
of its distance from market, and when
completed will rendor what is now ono
of the most sparsely Bettled regions n
perfect garden spot.
Rov. J. C. Furmau, D. D., and Prof.
C. H. Judson have tendored their resig
nations as Professors iu Furmau Univer
sity, to take effect at tho close of tho
present session. It is very much to he
hoped that the Board of Trustees will
not accept theso resignations, for the
placen to be made vacant cannot bo sup
plied by such able and useful men as
those jvho now occupy thom. Tho insti
tution was largely endowed by tho father
of Dr. Furmau, and he has been a Pro
fessor in it for so many years that he and
tho University are inseparably councctcd
in tho minds and affections of tho peo
ple. Prof. Judson also is a very able
mathematician and scholar, whoso servi
ces would bo difficult to replace.
Tho Cincinnati Gazette is authority for
saying that the Republicans roly upon
their capital to starve Southern Demo
crats into voting for tho appropriation
bills in order to obtain their own sala
ries. It is said that a Northern mil
lionaire has offered to cash the Republi
can pay certificates if they will stand
firm, and that numerous others are will
ing to do the samo thing. Thero is .no
doubt much-truth as to tho superior ad
vantages of tho Republicans in this
respect, for by their course of jobbery
and fraud during tho past eighteen years
they have created monopolies and rings
which aro anxious to see them, return to
ful! power in the government once more,
and are willing to advance a handsome
sum of money to secure this, and espe
cially where they will only loso a little
interest on their money by the transac
tion. T1'- *v>" nrnhahly turn nut. that
these calculations aro false, for the
Southern members of Congress will suffer
the inconvenience, however serious, if it
is thought best for thc country ; and
though tho Republican members of Con
. gress may be able to get their own sala
-iea, it will not be easy for them to
obtain money with which to pay off the
army and Ute thousands of government
officials, who are practically all Repub
licans. Thus it will be seen that if a
scige should be agreed upon, the presa
uro would rest heaviest upon the Re
publican party. The starvo-out policy
is frequently rery effective, and wo would
like to see the plan tried on the Repub
licans at this time. It would put an end
to their game of bluff.
Among many unwise and i_?uigero??s |
, provisions looking towards communism
in the constitution of California, which
wau adopted by the people of that State
last week, there is one which, though
more suitable for an act of tho Legisla- (
tore, ls nevertheless a good one. It pro
tides that no Judge shall draw his .
monthly pay where ne has cases onde-1
cided which have been committed to
him for inore than ninety days. Such a !
law would no d>uU induce the judiciary !
to render d?cidons within tho time pre- >
uvribed by law, and would therefore be I
beneficial. !

of this State. Thc lime of the Conven

consideration of the mission work, dur

who havo been missionaries in (.'Inna,

tion was Very harmonious in all its work
and tho uttermost courtesy and good-wil
marked its entire session. On Monda]
night, or rather Tuesday morning, i
adjourned to meet next year at Lexing
ton, Kentucky, and Kev. P. II. Mell
D. D., of Georgia, was appointed t(
preach the Convention sermon. Tin
citizens of Atlanta entertained the Con
vention in a hospitable and generou
manner, which will long be remembers
with great pleasure by those who wer
ila recipients.
lu order to accommodate its view <
legislation io the quickened conscience (
Mr. Hayes, Congress passed rind sent t
him, apart from any tti.propriatioi
a bill to prevent the ilse of troops i
the polls in times of peace, which
was thought he would find no plat
Bible ground upon which to place h
veto. This has proven to be a wii
step on thc part of tho Democrats, ft
it compelled tho President either to ullo
the bill to become law or to openly ar
squarely espouse the cause of militar
interf?rence with the ballot box. In th
straight tho fraudulent President hi
yielded to the pressure oi tho stalwart
and returned the bill with his veto <
thc distinctly avowed opinion that tl
usc of thc military on such occasions
may bo necessary is sanctioned by tl
principles of the constitution and tl
precedents of the republic. Thus ll
Republicans have been forced to ta!
their true ground, and acknowledge thc
intention to uso tho troops to control ll
ballot. This is enough, and if Lhc Dei
ocrats can .ot make a largo amount of ?i
litical capital of this veto they aro cc
tainly devoid of able or practical len
ere.
Tho trial of Cox for tho murder
Alston was concluded in Atlanta h
week, and resulted it: a verdict of guil
of manslaughter, tho sentence for will
was imprisonment for life in the peniten
ary. This ia better than it might ha
been, for murderers frequently go ctiti
ly free ; 'JI t the result is far from hoi
a vindication of tho law, for th', caso
presented was clearly one of murder
nothing. There waa no sudden diff
once, whereat in a moment of passion
shot Alston and killed him, but was
deliberate and wicked plan to take hum
life. Cox "icured a pistol, made th reu
and was reasoned with, all before t
killing occurred. There was, therefo
not only implied but also expressed ni
ice, together with a formed dc.-ign
kill, which roba tho offence of overy se
bianco to manslaughter, and makes
one of tho most flagrant murdors. Ci
however was wculthy, und in this ca
as in thousands which have been tr
bofore, money whipped justice.
The Democratic papers which aro |
ing out of their way to abuse Govert
Tilden may havo cause to regret th
trouble. It is by no means certain tl
ho will not bo thu nominee for Presid?
next limo ; and if ho is, wc will all hi
to render him a cheerful und hearty si
port, for ho is nu infinitely better n
than any person tho Radicals will r
It is, thcrofore, bad policy to be berat
him now. Wo do not desire bis rent
?nation, nnd would prefer Bayard, II
cock, Thurman or Heudricks to him,
if he is renominated theu ho will
como our choice. Wo know that it \
be tho samo way with our estcer
contemporaries who have lately beet
severe upon Mr. Tilden, nnd therel
we hopo that Democratic journals 1
refrain from attacking any presiden
candidato in a manner calculated to
juro their usefulness in supporting I
if he should hereafter bo nomi Hilted.
Tho Democrats v. ill doubtless conti
to poss bills repealing the infamous l<
ical election laws, and thereby put
President to the necessity of plat
himself ou record ns favoring tho
ch'nery which enables tbe party
power to retain control of the govi
ment by fraud and force. A few n
such e.indid vetoes ns thc one tho Pi
dent has sent in on the bill to prob
military interference will soon startle
country with the avowed and well
ganized effort to centralize tho gov
ment by subordinating the frcedoir
tho ballot to tho will of tho Exccu
and to the political parly to whicl
belongs.
Honest Jobu J. Patterson, a for
Senator from this State, was made cl
man of a committee of three from
Senate to investigate our Jndian i
tiona, and waa tho,only one of tho c
mittea who acted, ne was gone two
five days, and succeeded in spendu
very snug little sum in the wuy of i

Chronicle and Constitutionalist says :
Honest John J. Patterson thinki

Fairfield News and Herald : A meeting
was held in the Court House on Monday,
under the auspices of Mr. J. Hendrix
McLean and Dr. V. P. Clayton, in the
interest of thc. National Greenback La
bor Reform party. There were about
forty whito persons present, mid about
one-third of that number of negroes.
An address was delivered by thc Rev. D.
B. Clayton, of tho Universalist denomi
nation, n resident of Columbia. In re
ply, Mr. Jno. H. Cat! cart made a few
opposition remarks, after which tho
meeting carno to an end.
- Once on n timo a stammering candi
date for the Legislature asked a friend
to writ? him a circular. "What shall I
write?" inquired tho friend. "I want
you to begin by saying that all my ene
mies aro a set of infernal rascals, and
ovcry line get stronger and stronger," was
tho rcjdy. Tho Chicago Tribune of last
Suiur'.iay nuoiiis Lu iiaVc uceo inspired by
similar feelings toward Judge Davis.
Wo have seldom read an article so bitter
upon n public man. The very first sen
tence is in these words: "David Davis is
an impostor and a fraud." It declares
that his presence in thc Senate from the
State of Illinois "is a shame and a hu
miliation." Says that Mr. Lincoln "in
an hour of weakness elevated him to thc
highest office in his gift, that of Judge
of tho Supremo Court of the United
States." whero."he cut but a sorry figure,"
and where "he disgusted his colleagues
on the bench." It is not necessary to
make further quotations in order to show
its vengeful character. The Inter-Ocean
could not havo written one moro unjust.
It is unjust to Judge Davis and unjust to
the writer. It proves conclusively to our
mind that the speech which ovoked it
has pierced the Radical heart to tho quick.
Our respected cotempoary cnn not coun
teract its influence in Illinois by such vi
tuperation. No gentleman stands higher
than Judge Davis in that State as an up
right citizen.
- Tho Radical theory is, if we aro to
judge from th? tono and declarations of
Radical speakers, that the people ore not
capable of self government, especially on
election days. Then soldiers must be
called in to keep them from adopting
crookod ways.
- The Legislature of New Hampshire,
nt it? meeting in June, will elect a United
States Senator. Wm. E. Chandler is a
candidate, nnd rumor gives him a good
deal of strength. His soundness of Rad
ical faith is beyond controversy. That
was tested down in Florida.
- The head of Freo* Douglass acema to
he pretty level. This is what he s.aid ?ti
a recrnt lecture: "It is a mistake for the
negro to move North ; one of tho mont
unfortunate predicaments that ca. be
imagined in a n< .m. in n snow-bank ; it
don i look right ; the color? don't blend
harmoniously."

dency: Ile im:.v Anim what muddy the
v.r.tcr- and give a gond deal of trouble
to politicians, but it in not at all probable
thal his aspirations in either direction
will lie gratified.
- The lime was when thc South was
misrepresented in Congress by a solid
delegation of Radicals, and scarcely au
honest, competent man could be found
among them. Then all was lovely, lint,
when Intilligrnc and fe?|*cctnhihty nb
tamed thc ascendancy, w hat a howl was
heard all along the Radical line.
- .Mr. Hayes is not without that frail
ty common to humanity, vi/.: a high ap
preciation of hit own capacities, some
times called self-conceit. Mr. Hayes had
and perhaps hus liol now any intention
to run for a second term, but it is inti
mated thal he would jml like to have (l e
people to vote their confirmation of his
course and of his title to the ofllee. It is
for that (and for no other reason I) he
could be.pUrsOadcd perhaps lu accept
the nomination in lttSd. Many others
aro afflicted in the same way !
- In case Sherman is nominated by
the Republicana of Ohio for Governor,
Thurman or Ewing will be thu nominee
of thc Democratic party. As the State
goes for Governor so it is supposed it will
go for President. It will be a light for a
commanding position in thu great eon
