Editor IptiUigenoer : I hare recently s?en an editorial article in tba INTEI.LI 0ENC3R in wblch you expresa a prefer* euee fof me for the nomination far Go?? ernor. I desire to thank you for the honor you do me, and for the terms ic which your preference it expressed. Having tully considered the mather, and ' having reached a determinate concludion, I feel it to bs duo to my friends that I should ut once declare that, for reasous which it" cannot interest the public to know, I cannot allow my name to bo pre sented to tho Convention for the nomi nation. Very respectfully, your obedient ser vant, W. H. WALLACE. The municipal election io Columbia last week resulted in a complete "walk over thc track" for the D?mocratie nom inees. C?i?i?bia bas set a worthy ex nmpio to tho other portions of South Carolina. They made good nominations and stuck to them solidly. That ia the sure way tb achieve success. The card of Judge Wallace, which wo publish . elsewhere, conveys tho unwel come information that ho cannot consent to accept the nomination for Governor in tho coming canvass, and thcrcforo leaves the contest where It stood before he was suggested. A great many of our readers will regret this, for he waa un doubtedly th?. favorite of a large majority of them for Governor. Judge Wallace, however, occupies ad important position which ia moro congenial to his taste and equally as advantageous to the State, and it is not unreasonable for him to prefer to retain it. Circumstances may yet arise which will necessitate his rumina tion in tho interests of that enthusiasm and concord which is necessary to savo The nomination of Gen. Grant by the Chicago Convention for a third term is not near os likely as it was a few weeka ago, although tho Stalwarts and 'most corrupt clements (of tho Rcpubllcuu party oro working iby.it, with a tenacity that amounts to roonees. He is . not the choice-of his. own-party, and, if nomi nated, it will he the work of a few lead ingjpolltfclans, effected by manipnla,tiug convention? without regard to the wishes of tho masses of. the. party. The' bette? element in the Republican party rpebg-. nize tho'danger tb Republican institu tions bf a departure from the. established customs of sear a century, that no Pres ident, however popular, should have more than two terms, and those In that party who favor'a constitutional govern ment axe holding meetings in the North, East and West protesting against tho principle; of ? third term.

It ts a notorious fact that although man) murders occurred during Republi cnn ascend wey in Booth Carolina in which white men killed colored people, yet no white man w.ts ever executed for such a crime under their administration of the government by them, and they have repeatedly .sscrtod thal none would ever occur under a Democratic adminis tration. Since we obtained the govern ment these killings have almost entirely stoppe?.', ?.nd tho following report of a c&se terminated at the late Sparenburg I Court, taken from tho Carolina Spartan, shows that the laws are, and will be, im partially administered by our Courte: Thomas White, a white mao, several weeks ago, po the streets cf Spartan burg, while intoxicated, by some atrange freak, shot and killed Pct Williams, a negro, without provocation. The atrange thing ia that he did thia without knowing Haw kin, or without any provocation to shoot bim. It may never lie known wb^t waa tho secret spring in bis mind that made him do thia deed.. Friday afternoon tho prisoner waa brought into Court and placed in the dock. A denso crowd packed the court room at tho time. Judge Wallace, feol injr^tho awful solemnity of tho occasion, "Thomas, White, stand up. Have you anything to say why the ?sentence of I death should not be pronounced on you?". For the first time during thc whole trial tho prisoner showed aomo agitation of mind. Hi? volco waa a little quiver ing, and ho ?aid : "I can only say that I am clear of the chargea against me. I am not guilty of them. I am innocent of it. in my conscience before God I don't feel that I done thia deed. I don't think ft right before God to pot me to death for what J did not do." These were about bis words, uttered with ootso much connection ns here expressed. Judgo Wallace then said about as fol lows : "TJnfoituoatoly for you, Thoa. White, a jury pf your country mun have declar a you guilty, and it in my painful duty to declare the judgment of the law. I do not punish you, aud tho jury docs not punish you,. Tho jury havo found, after careful investigation, that you killed Pet Hawkins. Qn that record tho duty, painful aa it ie, devolves upon mo to pro nounce the sen te nco of the law.- I can not find lt in my heart to add one word to the keen distress you feel. All men must die ; but when you, a young mao, full of life, just in tho vigor of manhood, come to die a felon's death, it must pen etrate you with a degree of distress which cannot bo expressed in words. It must occur to you, aa it must-to every man, that If you had not had a pistol in your pocket-" Prisoner: "I did not have a pistol ; before God--" ' Here bia attorney asked him to bo silent. Judge Wallace waa patiently waiting to hear what be had to Bay. . "If you had not had a pistol in your pocket, and been on that fatal afternoon drinking liquor to excess. Pet Hawkins would not have .been killed, nnd you would not bo hero to receive tho sentence of death. Pct Hawkins' death and your approaching death are traceable to tho common, practice of drinking liquor to excess, which practico proved as fatal aa If you fiad administered strychnine to, I Pet Hawkins Hud then taken it yourself, Examples aro of such frequent occur renco lo South Carolina, where tho freo uso of whisky, joined with tho practice of carrying concealed weapons, brings many mon to danger and death, that, It aeema tb ibo, all good men ought to endeavor to concontrate public upi dion eo aa to check tlics? two evil practices. Thomas White, I regret that it is my duty to give lt aa my opinion that you will be obliged to dlo. It seems that you havo nothing to do but to make your peace with that God whosp laws . ou haye violated. Let mo, who wouh'. ob everything in tenderneas, exhort you to eave yourself from a more dreadful punishment than the law can inflict. 1 will not protract thia fearful scene.

Yesterday afternoon the report reached Auguuta that another bloody vendetta had occurred in Edgefield, whereby one person was even then in a dying condi tion, and two others dans'.ously wound ed. From mouth to mouth tho rumor aped, until tho whole town waa aghast at tho repetition of a fatal affair of only I eightceu months ago. Telegraph iori newspaper offices were besieged for news from tho acene of bloodshed, and perhaps of death, and the evening train of tho Columbia Road was boarded by several native;! of Edgefiold. now residente of Augusta, anxious ana apprehensive over the extent of the trouble. The first dispatch wau brief, hut fearfully sugges tive. It was this : "Anoth e-shooting scrape occurred here thia morning, about tho election of Town Council, which carno off to-dny. Julian Bland and Dr. W. E. Bland, A. A. Clisby and A. A. Glover were tho parties en gaged. Dr. Bland was shot in the abdo men-considered mortal. A. A. Clisby was shot through the body and received a wound On the head from the blow of s ?i: toi-considered dangorous. A. A; (lover ia shot twice in the thigh-not dangerous. Dr. Camphell, of your city baa oeen telegraphed for, and will como up to-night." . Excitement culminated in tho evening ln?te, when it was anuounced here that Dr. Wallace Bland was dead. Reports reaching Augusta, even up to a lato bour last evening, were somewhat shadowy, but nn account of tho affair, from seemingly trustworthy sources, has been obtained : On Thursday, April 1st, tho voters of Edgefield met at the. Court House to nominate citizons to fill tho municipal offices, and the following ticket waa selected : For Intendant, C. L. B. Marah ; for Wardens, Lee Holuon, W. li. Branson, W. N. Burnett and R. S. Anderson. During t' r meeting, howev er, trouble arose rege. ' <jg a reduction of the whiskey tax of the town. One party, led we learn by Mr. V/. B. Penn, favored a retention of the license at' existing figures-$200 per annum-and it waa upon this issue that, the gentlemen named above were nominated. The other party, led by Mr. A. A. Cliaby, favored a reduction of the tax to $150, and finally placed a second ticket in the field, the nominees for Warduna being Mesan?. A. A. Clisby, Dr. W. D. Jen uiegs, V/. E. Lynch and Geo. Simkina (.ion.. Wm. Marsh, tho regular nominee for ?intendant, wo learn, subsequently declined to run, and Mr. R. G. Bonham was put up in nia place. Now. ? among the supporters of the regular ticket were Dr. Wallace E. Bland, a young physi cian of 25 or 80 years of age, and h? brother, Julian Bland, much younger, On the other side were Mr. A. A. Clisby. one of the candidates for Warden, ana Mr. Arthur A. Glover, 'his father-in-law, and a gentleman well known in thc country, i tv tbs. course of the rr:ern iog Lawrence; King, a colored man, and former State Senator from Edgefield bounty, came to tfio polls to vote. HU vote was challcnged by Clisby, who con tended that King, residing beyond tin corporate limita, could not cast his ballot lc a municipal election. Dr. Bland can tended that King had a rightto vote, and nn altercation ensued, in tho course ol which Clisby shot Dr. Bland in the bow elsj Young Julian Bland immediately drew a pistol and ehot Cllehy in the body I Sd uko shot Mr. Glover twice in th? thigh. CiWii's wounds were corulderec dangerous, Glover's being not necessarily so. From the first, however.

Tb* Hom ft Carol'os toleration In Congre ri UnsnlxnouB AgnitUt Ulm-What The/ Say. The New York Herald gives nome con versations with ita reporters by the mem bers of tho Congressional delegations from Kentucky (except Mr. Knott, who ia absent,). Tennessee, South Carolina (except Senator Butler, who declines to sneak,) Georgia, Missouri, Arkansas and West Virginia on the question of Mr. Tiiden's availability aa a Presidential candidato in their States and the prob able result upon their States and districts of bis nomination. The bulk of opinion ia against Mr. Tilden, as unpopular, and, i VI M in the overwhelmingly Democratic cit?tes, likely to depress the voters and bring on*political stagnation. "ANYBODY EXCEPT TILDEN." 8enator Wade Hampton, of South Car olina, aaya: "ID my opinion tbs nomiua tion of M.--. Tildeu would placa Sosth Carolina and six other Southern States in the doubtful list, with the chances of j success grenlly against us if tho ex-Pres ident should be tue Itejufulicy.il nominee. I regret this condition of public opinion in the South, but it is a lecognlzed fact of which the Democrats of tho North should be apprised. We propose to sup port the nominees of tho Cincinnati Con vention, but wo hope that these nominees will be men who can be u ire of tho whole Southern vote." Senator Butler declined to express an opiniou on the Bubject. John S. Richardson, of the First Dis trict, says : "I believo that a largo ma jority of the D?mocratic party would vote for tho nominee of '.be Convention, and I also believe the nomination of Mr. Tilden would jeopard, if not ruin, the Eros peels of carrying the State for tho democracy. What effect hia nomination would hivo upon tho several Congres sional Districts I am not prepared at present to say. Tho vote would be very close any way it may be calculated, ard the fewer obstacles we have tho moro certain we shall be of getting an undis puted majority in overy district and an. aggregate vote iu the State for the Dem ocratic candidate which cannot bo chal lenged." M. P. O'Connor, of the Second Dis trict, s .yr, : "The nomination of Mr. Til den in my opinion meena tho defeat of the Electoral ticket in South Carolina. I have just returned from Charleston, and tbs opinion I express is confirmed by the visit to my home. The Democracy of Our Seato would not think of bolting tho nomination, but we should bo so indif ferent, if Ibo nomination of Mr. Tilden waa presented for our support, that I should aay the vote of the State would be leas than it was for Mr. Greeley in 1872. I should hardly suppose tho strength of our delegation would be affected by Mr. Tiiden's nomination. Let anybody be nominated but Mr. Tilden and the vote of South Carolina will be assured for the Democracy, with victory from one end of | the Stntc to tho other." D. Wvatt Aiken, of the Third District. Baya : "If Mr. Tilden is again nominated tho vote of every county in South Caro lina would be a atrained vote. Whilo th ero is no doubt but what tho party would give him its suppo.t, it would do it grudgingly, as it were under protest, ana go through the campaign in a heart less manner. That 1B my honest convic tion. ' You muat remember ws had a very hard time four years ago when all the enthusiasm of tho Democracy of the F?Uite waa aroused. What would it be if we had to carry a dead weight next fall. Aa for tho result in the Congressional Districts, I do not think there would ha any break in the delegation. Our local interests are more centered in election of Congressmen, and, I believo, we would elect the five members the State is en titled to. You mnst bear in mind that we were counted out of our vote for the Presidential electora in South Carolina in 1876, yet sustained the entire delega tion in Congresa. We went for home rulo and won on our local issues, but got worsted in thc Presidential count. Would it not bo reasonable to suppose that with additional drawbacks thia year, tho chances of carrying the electoral tiykct would bo diminished ?" John H. Evin?, of the Fourth District, cay? : "The nominee of the Convention Trill be supported, but, in my opinion, if lt ia Mr. Tilden, that support will be lukewarm compared with our enthusiasm for him four yeera ago. It would be very feeble aa compared with the support wo would give to Mr. Bayard or to Mr. Sey mour or any of tho candidates named, except Mr. Tilden. You can judge of the necessity of giving us a strong candi date-by recnllir.g the result cf the contest in.1876. Wit elected our Governor, yet we lost the electoral rote of the State. If that waa BO iu 1876, what might be ex Sleeted if Tild?n was agatu nominated? Vhat assurance have we or can we give that we will not be beaten or counted out? I aay the contingency is too great to ran any rink, There might be a dead set made'fo? Seoublicsn Congressmen, and one or two, ir not three, of the five Districts would have a sharp, close 'con test to hold their Democratic strsngth. Our security against defeat -will rest in tho nomination of Seymour and Hen dricks. Mr. Hend-*cka will, I under stand, consent to ru. aa^Vice-l^ealdont with Mr. Seymour." George D. Tillman; of tbs "Fifth Dis trict, aaya : "I am sure South Carolina will go for the nominee, whoever he may ' be. To be sure it would bo up-hill work with'Mr. Tilden at the head of tho ticket. Any other candidate would make the political campaign easier to go through with. Somehow tho name of Mr. Tilden ia'not aa atrong as lt wu foor years ago. He ia ''something of a martyr, but not sufficiently divested of material prosper ity io . arouse that fl??r 'SpirUnc?- sensu which responds to the Bufferings and de nials of thoso who sacrifice much in a just cause. He waa cheated out ortho office without doubt, but there is'little bono that politics will ever do justice to tho downtrodden in thia country. Aa for our Ckmgvesaional delegation that is ? difierc?? ?u?i??r entirely, we are strug gling to preserve bur civilization in South Carolina, .and there is not the slightest danger of tho delegation being aught but D?mocratie so long as we stand eui" k-Te !br -?s??ty and thc Anglo Saxon race!" .
