WHAT J?OE8 IT ?<XE&r? ?
The country has repeatedly been
shocked by the shameless and tyrannical
manner in which tho Republicans have
raised money for campaign purposes by
levying assessments upon every one hold
ing government appointments. It ls the
strong power which hos assisted to keep
tho Republicans in power. Every cam
paign they collect hundreds of thousands
of dollars from those holding government
positions by tho plan known as "political
assessments," which indicates to each
officer how much he is expected to pay,
and tho recipient of this polite dun has
to either pay up or step down cud out to
make room for some one who will re
spond to thc assessment. The fund so
raised is devoted to the manipulation and
corruption of elections, and is one of the
greatest political evils of the day. Tho
Democrats are now pressing a bill in
Congress to prevent these assessments,
and in our Opinion there is no more im
portant matter before Congress.. This is
a national campaign year, audio fail to
pass tho bill means to give a. largo fund
?X? rmliriftal ~uirangna,tn tho Tlc...-Jil ir? aim
i? SSwi thstn in sccurisg the election of i
a Republican President. Not only is ?
failure to pass this bill short-sighted po
litically, but it is a permission to con
tinuo a corrupting practice which ia con
trary tb good principle and sound moral a.
Under these circuroatancci wo supposed
th?t every Democrat oud the better oles?
of Republicans would favor the bill to
put aa end to these areessmsnts. When
lt carno up. in tho House, however, Our
immediate; representative, Col. Aikeu,
moved to lay tho bill on tho table.
Every Republican voted for thc 'motion
to lay the bill on tho table; and only four
Democrats voted with them. Tho four
Democrats were Messrs. Aiken, Felton, j
Morse arid Wells. Of these Dr. . Felton '
is an Ind?pendant from Georgia, For?
tunatcly^ however, th ny woe- not. strong
enough to defeat thc? bill, and Col.
Aiken's roo: H.'M . > <o?.t, only receiving
112 votes to 121 against it, .This speak*
well for the Democratic party, and tadV
calci that the bil! will ht? pased. IQ t&a
event of its ?'.ttacg?. ??r. Hayes contd
hardly dare interpose a veto", for the sen
timent of tho country is too strong
against tho outrageous evil it seeks to
?niT?inL .Byrnassiinar ibo hill tho Damac
rooy will gain credit for a great and
much-needed reform. We. aro ot a loss
to understand Col. Aiken's position.
Does ho favor this custom of political a*
?cnsmentg? and does he desire to allow
the Republican party io retain this pow
erful source of revenue for campaign par*
poses? It may be that there is 6omo
rhjfl? In t he mathrr which wo.do not un
hand, -ind, if so, we would bo delight?
cit to recowo Information opon it. We
have no d :: .?. do Col. Aiken injustice,
for, ]H/rarinsUy, we liko him, but wo think
Tin u^^rlonsly. misraprcseats his icon-,
li'dtuenti! in atter?pline1 to continuo tho
satisfactory,
Dr. Wise, of WilUa.usborg, twice rc
fused to say whether ho would or would
not pledge himself to support the Demo
cratic nominee for President ; but dually
?aid, that aa between Grant and Tilden,
he waa in favor of the former, but as be
tween Hancock and Grant, he was in
favor of Hancock. He was followed In
the same spirit bj Messrs. Groncr, cl
Norfolk, and Stovali, of Henry county,
who distinctly agreed with Dr. Wise in
opposing any call for a State Convention
which should include only all who desire
tho election of a Democratic President.
\ Mr, Stovall said lu a prolonged appeal
that lt was time for Virginia to lead a
great progress of the South. Ile said
there was on one side tho dead carcass of
tho Democracy, on the other tho liviug
force of a great party, and it became Vir
ginia to bea part of tho living, and not
of th?) dead. The upshot is that the
Readjuster* who are members of the
committee are entirely unwilling to take
part in any Democratic or Conservative
movement, and that they are holding
aloof for further development.*.
This indicates a lack of union among
tho Democrat? of tho old Dominion,
which may transfer the State from tho
solid South Democratic column to tho
Republican column in tho next Presiden
tial election. Tho Readjuster/s, with the
Republican vote, carried the State of
Virginia last Fall, and it is possible that
they may bo able to do so in the Presi
dential election this Fall.
A JUST BEU?KK.
The Edgefield Advertiser Bays:
"The South Carolina Legislature has
again failed to enact a law against the
carrying of concealed weapons, but South
! Carolinians will at all events have to be
careful in this regard when they cross the
river into Georgia-especially into Au
gusta. On Monday, tho loth, Judge
Eve sentenced a citizen of Edgefield,
convicted in his Court of this offenco, to
pay a fine of ono hundred dollars and
costs, or be imprisoned in tho County j ail
for ninety days. Indeed, such is the
genalty prescribed by tho law of tho
tate. At last accounts tho said citizen
was still io jail. Wo earnestly bono
Judge Eve aud all other officers of tue
law. will continue.til ha thu a nro?n^t and
decisive. Tho custom of "men""going
about with one, two and threo pistols
girt about their waists, or hidden in their
{lockets, is dirty, coarse and cowardly;
nfamcuB, disgusting and ungentleman
ly ; defiant of the laws of God, of human
lite, and of public and prlvnto peace.
Tho late Legislature, which did many
good things for tho State, certainly failed
to do Bomo things xor which it is to bo
greatly censured. No act of omission on
ita part was so inexcusable or hurtful in
its consequences as the failure to enact
a law to prevent tho carrying of con
cealed weapons. The habit is all that our
Edgefield contemporary says for it, and
is the occasion for innumerable homi
cides, batteries, accidents and feuds. It
is an uncivilized, semi-barbarous and to
tally inexcusable custom. Public opin
ion in moat of the States has enforced the
adoption of laws prohibiting tho carrying
of concealed weapons, and wo are yet to
learn of a State which ha* once passed
such a law over repealing it. This fact
of itself shows that it is salutary in its
effects, and, if so, we know of no Stato
which needs it moro than South Caro
lina. In Bomo par's of tho State old
men, young men, and even boys, go
armed to their ordinary business, aa if
some hostile invasion were anticipated, or
somo encounter of desperate character
woro before them. The result is tho con
stant m-o of pistols and tho crowding of
our courte with trials for murders, riots,
batteries, &o. It is timo tho habit was
stopped by law. The welfare of fcociety
?demands it. Tho requirements of civili
sation necessitate it. Publio opinion
ehould force its enactment.
The country certainly has ? cause for
at the efforts that are being made
to centralize the government. The third
term movement, and the clear indication
iiU the it?iw?rts aro seeking, what they
term a strong government, are undoubt
edly grave causes for alarm on tho part
of those who honor and love our free
institutions, but thoy aro of minor impor
tance to tho fact that our judiciary has
lost its Independence and put I ty, and
that lt has been absorbed as a part of tho
political machinery of the day. Tho
slipping away from tho old landmarks
began when the Supremo Court of tho
United States'was oponly and clearly
remodeled to secure a favorable decision
to the greenback legal tender act, which
waa sustained by tho now Court on the
ground that it was a war-measure, and
necessary to tho maintenance of the na
tional authority. It was the first time
th?t tho Court had over swayed from the
Constitution and law for any expediency.
It was tho beginning, and from step to
step tho Court bas gone on, avoiding or
annulling the provisions of the Constitu
tion, end the interpretations given them
for a century, in order to meet the will
very ground-work of the Constitution is
gone, and the opportunity for centraliza
tion ?B ample. Congress is supreme, and
whenever a Republican President and
O?^MgTress rhall ad??i?lstsr ^v? gov*rs*
ment, there is no check to the wreck they
may make cf the government.- So long
as the judiciary remained free fr?'j taint
or Viss, tho ultimate liberty of tho people
and Eccurity of the Constitution was
I abundant; bat with our judiciary gone,
and acting more as a political junta than
?asa Court of law and justice, tho last
safeguards of our liberties haye been
stricken down, and now nothing but a
majority of the voters of the country can
j avert tho overthrow of the republic. In
this light the coming contest is clothed
wsth momentous impr.riar.ee. A defeat
of tho Republican party is all that can
preservo the American Union.
Tho Supreme Court of tho United
j States ie as good in judicial gymnastics

Between tho Ch?nese and Dennis Kear
ney, tho ci'Jzens of San Francisco have
been having enough excitement to pre
vent anything like a dull monotony. For
tho past few weeks the most intense ex
citement has prevailed, owing to incen
diary threats and demonstrations from
large bodies of men under the influence
of Kearney's speeches. Safety commit
tees have been formed, the Mayor, who
sides with Kearney, has issued a procla
mation declaring thc city quiet, and de
nouncing the statement to tho contrary.
The meetings and threatening demonstra
tions are continuing, and general unea
siness prevails. On tho 11th inst., Kear
ney was arrrested hy tho police, at his
residence, on two charge*? of m ^demean
or, based on remarks at the meeting cn
Tuesday night previous. J Io furnished
ba'' and was released from jstody.
The arrest of Kearney was mado quietly
and bas caused no excitement. It is
doubted whether ho csu bo convicted,
for the reason that tho sheriff, who draws
the jurors, is his personal friend and,
with the district attorney, was fleeted on
the Workingmeu's tickot. Some, howev
er, think that the Citizen's Protective
'Ju?on can exert influence cuough to se
cure his conviction and punishment.
Tho witness against him is n member of
the police force who has been attending
tho meetings of the workingmen iu dis
guise and taking notes of the incendiary
language used by tho speakers. The
trial has not como off yet, but j idging
from tho telegraphic reports from the
city of San Francisco, the arrest has done
a great deal to restore quiet and order.
Tho Rochester (N. Y.) Union hits the
periodical bloody shirt nows, to which
tho country is treated just before the
elections each alternate Full, a very stag
gering blow in the following propitious
and sensiblo paragraph :
"Is it not pretty near time for tho
'Stalwart' Republican statesmen and
newspapers to manufacturo and grind out
'Southern outrages' for tho consumption
of their credulous brethren at tho North
whoso voices aro governed by their prej
udices? Since tho close of tho elections
of 1879 in November last-for ono. two,
threo. four months^ th? North has had a
rest. There hos been great negligenco
among the Republican leaders in this
matter. If continued there is danger
that even credulous Northern Republi
cans may begin to J calizo tho fact that
'Southern outrages' aro creations of the
imagination., ana that they havo for years
about election time been duped by thom.
If something bo not done Boon to fire the
Northern heartTxnd keep up sectional
animosity, tho Republican causo will
certainly sufler."
The Union will no doubt seo very Boon
an abundance of newspaper matter do
tailing tho utter lawlessness and cruelty
of tho Southern people, but it may con
sole tho publie that this Btate of things,
which will only cxiit on paper, will not
be kept up any longer than ?B necessary
to cover tho Presidential election. We
imagine that tho intelligent people of the
North aro too much accustomed to this
old campaign dodgo of unprincipled Re
publicans to be deceived by it any
longer.
Pennsylvania has for years been under
tho domination of the Republican party,
and that party has been com pl ' ly un
der tho dictation of the tribe ci?eron.
Some timo ago Don Cameron, tbe Qrand
Sachem of the tribe, issued his edict that
the voto of that State is to ba cast for
Grant for President in tho nominating
Convention, and things were accordingly
arranged by holding aa early State Con
vention and pledging the delegates ac
cordingly. Since this little manuver tho
independent portion of the Republican
press of tho Keystono State hm been
commenting severely upon tho third term
movement, and to a considerable extent
upon Gen. Grant himself. Cameron is
said to have met several of those editors
in Washington recently, and gave them
a timely warning as to what Is before
J them, by saying: "You have been pre
paring a nice feast of crow for yourselves.
After tho 3rd of Juno you shall eat it."
Mr. Cameron seems to bo unmindful of
tho fact that there are two sides to thia
question. After tho nomination there
comes an election, and, if he succeeds in
nominating Grant, it may turn out that
ho will havo prepared a mess of crow for
himself, which ho will have to eat after
tho 2nd of November, for a third term
Republican nomination ia by no meaos
equivalent to an election.
The Philadelphia North American,
which is perhaps tho oldest dally .in
America, and is a leading Republican
journal cf Pennsylvania, closes an edito
rial on the Utica Convention with tho
following pia!u words :
; "From this day forward tho most cred
ulous of men will scarcely venture to
place tho candidacy of .Gen. Grant in
any other rank than that of a bitter rvtrug
, gio on bis behalf, aided by all tho'ma
chinery and power that can be controlled
by. partisan advocates, familiar ^with ali
?ile devices of polU'val. vr?ro-pui?ir.g. It
is limo to bo done with tho tomfoolery
about demands of tho pconlo and uni
versal acclaim. It may N/ a sad break
ing of idols, but nono the less must it be
admitted that Gen. Grant has thus far
failed to develop a particle of political
strength, iu luv j'-iv--.T.: c-.r.v." -, that h5-?
not been manufactured for bim at large
cost and with considerable risk."
Against such plain truths so strongly
expressed lt will be very difficult for the
ex-President to procure a third term.
Wo have no doubt tant a majority of tho
Republicans themselves aro opposed to
Grant. Tho wire-pullers are neverthe
less manipulating the conventions for
him, and will doubtless be able to nomi
nate him. To elect bini afterwards, how
ever, it will be necessary to get the
united Republican vote, which seems
now to bo impossible.
In a recent speech Senator Bayard ut
tered the following noble sentiments,
which it is how rare to hoar and still
rarer to seo acted out:
"I shall not wait for tho echo of popu
lar applause, but shall go on believing
i that the people will not condemn the

Tn? fellowing proceeding? of the City
Council of Charleston concerning the re
moval of the remains of John C. Calhoun
will bo interesting to our readera:
Thc Mayor stated that before proceed
ing with tho regular business of Council
he desired to say that he bad received a
communication from the family of the
late Hon. John C. Calhoun in regard to
removing his remains to tho family bury
iog ground at Pendleton.
Alderman Eckel moved that in respect
to thc tnemoiy of Calhoun the communi
cation be received by Council standing.
Unanimously adopted.
Tho following letter wa? then read amid
a profound and respectful silence, tho
members of Council standing at their
seats uncovered :
FORT HILL, February 28, 1880.
To JIU Honor, 'Vm. A. Courtenay, Mayor
oj thc City of Charleston:
DEAR Sin-John U. Calhoun died in
tho City of Washington ou the 31st of
March, A. D. 1850. The body, after itu
arrival in Charleston, was retained and
interred in that city, by authorities offi
ciating, where they still Ho.
No member of Mr. Calhoun's family
approved of that measure. Mrs. Calhoun
and her only daughter frequently ex
pressed their dissatisfaction of that pro
ceeding.
Mn.. Clemson, the last surviving child,
M.id to me souio timo before her decease:
"After profound reflection and deliberate
consideration sho hud come to tho con
clusion that it v as her solemn duty to
request that her father's remains miould
bo transferred from his temporary tomb
in Charleston to his final resting place in
tho cemetery in Pendleton, where his
wile and most of his c'ildreu wero in
terred." Her deatL was as sudden as it
was unexpected. In her frequent con
ferences with us on the subject, she de
pended upon us to mako the request on
tbe part of he. mother as that of herself.
Had it not been for certain circumstan
ces, I shouid have communicated the
command long since.
My health is precarious, and, with ad
vancing years, I feel compelled under ?
sense ol solemn duty to transfer the obli
gation and char -,0 confided to mo into
your keening for such action as may, in
your wisdom, be most pioper.
Had it been possible to nave consulted
the wishes of Mr. Calhoun, wo aro con
i viuced that bis decision would have been
' in accordance with that of bis family and
that of bis fellow-citizons who survived
him.
Tho erection of a monument in com
memoration of bis exulted character, his
distinguished services to his country end
tho world nt large, was discussed in tho
Legislature of tho State, and determined
upon.
His fellow citizens of both sexes con
tributed and a fund was formed adequate
to tho purpose.
We nave never ascertained the amouut
that was raised. Much dissatisfaction
has been expressed by tho contributors
to that, fund, for the reticence of thoso
into whose cbargo tbe fund was placed.
We personally incurred censure for vain
efforts to obtain reliable or official infor
mation concerning the fund, or tho causes
for the delny in not carrying the project
into operation.
Wo know pertinently that strenuous
and occult efforts were made to subvert
or apply the monument fund to other
purposes than those for which it was
raised. That unrighteous intent was
estopped by tho interferenco of the sur
viving member.; of Mr. Calhoun's family.
The pape r.) inform us of a committee
of diatinguishct' gentlemen, whoso pur
poso is to erect a monument or heroic
statute of Mr. Calhoun nt Fort Hill.
We have been informed and notified that
that committee will visit Fort Hill at an
early futuro to confer upon tho subject
before forming a programme of proceed
ings. At thia late period it is important
that tho public ohould bo informed of
tho amount possessed and actually avail
able.
This prayer is a solemn voice from the
tomb. It calls for tho remains of the
husband to the side of tho wife, from his
children for their father, that they may
go down with all time together.
Delievo in tho distinguished considera
tion with which I remain mo.it respect
fully your friend,
THOS. G. CLEMSON.
The Mayor said : I deem it my duty
to say that so far us tho funds aro con
cerned they are in safo custody, doubt
less suffering loss in current income du
ring tho war: between the States, when all
funds were of Confederate issue and sub
sequently worthless. As to tho cause of
delay in erecting the memorial -to Mr.
Calhoun I have no specific information,
but wo can nil understand, amidst our
terrible convulsion and prostration, that
men olini?l?t nation in fh; SSiScdyisg of
their tribute Cc our great statesman until
they may bo able to commemorate thc
mighty dead in an appropriate memorial.
No churgo of indifference can rest upon
thu eily or section as to tho mao while he
lived, or the name and memory of Cul- ?
houn. We supported him with zealous'
devotion in lifo, buried bim with nil civic
honors in the bosom of our city, und
nene more than. Chariest? ans pay
greater reverence and homage to tho
Srout son of Carolina eb distingu? -bcd in
le councils of the State and tbs Union.
The City of Charleston alone, among the
cities of tho State, bas preserved his form
and face, and that great presence in this
very chamber looks upon na even now.
irom tho glowing canvas of Healy and fti
the living marblo of Milla. Tho lemaius
of our great statesman have teen kept
here, where thoy were laid by a loving
people. Tho wishes h** family, who
desire them interred at Fort Hill, havo
never yet found definite and official ex
pression, ss far as I know, nor havo thoy
over been commUlcatcd to this body au
thoritatively for Our action until now.
This request we have the power now for
the first ?!:cc V? act upon, and I know
that I only 'anticipate the action cf tho
I QAnnMl in KUggfjui't.tt immediate compli
ance with tho wishtS of the family"on
this subject.
Alderman Rose then olfcred the fol
lowing, which was unanimously adopted:
Whereas, the surviving members of tho
fVmily nf Mri Calhoun desire to romovo
Ids remains from Charketon to the burial
piuco of tho family in Pend?clo? ??i O?u?r
that they in ay-rest with his own kindred
and among those whom in lifo ho most
loved and valued, be it
' Hetolveil, That ? committee ? three
from tho City Council and six citizens of
tho City of Charleston, nf whom hi?
Honor, Mayor Courtenay, shall be chair
man, bo appointed to make appropriate
arrangement? for tho removal of tho re
mains, and to pr?vido such transportation
as m av bo required.
Pertinent to the samo question, and
the day after tho publication of tho fore
going proceedings, the following letter
waa published :
7h thu Rite*? of the Kev? cati Churi?r :
In common with many of our fcllow
citltcns we have been shocked bv Mr.
Clemson's letter of 28th Februarv ultimo,
published among th? proceedings of
Council, relating to tho removal or Mr.
Calhoun's remains aud to the fund for
PNveUm? a monument to his memory.
"? Our commanlty is profoundly interest
ed in this whole 'nutter, and we beg to
?tate that certain information in refer
ence to this fund, and a correct history
of tho interment of Mr. Cal> ^n in
Charleston, (probably not posset * \ by
Council on Tuesday evening last,) will
bo placed before that body at an early
day. It ia undeutood between hu
Honor, the Mayor, and the undersigned
that no action will be taken in themeun
time tinder tho resolutions passed by
Council. ROBKRT N. GoonniK,

HlW?RY D. LXMEBNE.
Nothing further in reference to thc
matter bas transpired. Our citizens vrill I
doubtless wa'.ch the proceedings with '
much interest, for every ono uf them
would be glad to seo the remains of Mr.
Calhoun rest in the cemetery of the vil
lage iu which ho lived, lt is a sentiment
which it is pardonable to indulge, tbat
great men should rest in death ia the
localities which honored and were at
tached to them in life, and where they
resided during tho days of their great
ness. While we dislike to see Charleston
deprived of thc honor of possessing the
resting pince of Mr. Calhoun, (for
Charleston always honored and loved
him,) in obedience to tho sentiment wo
have expressed above, we should like to
see tho remains of Carolina's greatest
statesman placed to rest in thu quiet but
cultured town of Pendleton by thc sido
of bis wife and children, and near to the
sleeping remains of many of his neigh
bors and friends.
TIIOITAS r;iferson said in 1821, "the
Federal judiciary is advancing its noise
less step liko a thief over the field of
jurisdiction until all shall bo usurped
from thc Stetes and tho governments of
all be consol [dated into ono." In tho
light of subsequent events these words
appear to havo been truly prophetic, for
in less than sixty years they havo been
substantially verified.

A Convention of the Democratic party
