COL. AIKEN'S SPEECH, AGAIN.
We do not agree with our correspon
dent, "Citlscn," In bis view of Col. Ai
ken's Tow oville speech, for whether
Hancock or Garfield is elected the Demo
cratic party is tho party of tho Constitu
tion, and thc South together with all
lovers of :he government of our forefath
ers owes it allegiance. Success nor de
feat can niter principles. - They are un
dying, and sn long nu thora romains, a
spark of that flume of liberty which was
lighted in America by tho oloquenco of
Patrick Henry, established by the sword
of Washington, and perfected by the
?:v;;:r. o. .Tc ii cr. .or., so long ?v ?ll thu doc
trines and principles of the Democratic
party, survive, and so long will lt receive
the support mid admiration of tho more
patriotic portion of our common union.
This great party may bo in a minority,
but its salutary influence alone presents
the destruction of the principles of our
government. There is no difference be
tween the Democratic party North and
that party South, and it is unfortunate to
have any elements of discord introdnccd
between tho two. Particularly docs it
111 become any Southern Democrat to
V">to the national Democratic porty af.
-.cr that magnificent exhibition of disin
terested sympathy and patriotism dis
played by tho Illustrious Bayard, Thur
nan, Eaton and their compeera who sat
:even alone against an overwhelming
n ajo ri ty of malignant and vicious Re
publican in the United States Senate,
lefending tho peop'i of tho South when
yo bad not a single voice ?pon tho
loor of thai body. The prolonged fights
.gainst tyranny and agression were
nado by them foe us when wo could
?ot defend otrafciyes and wo owo them a
astiog debt of gratitude. We are in
- avor of standing by thc Demoar?t?c
,>arty new .and all tho time, for when it
,?ocs down the free institutions of America
will full n? surely as tho republic? of
Greece and Home and France havo per
ished when tho party of liberty died in
their midst. Lei us adhere to 'he party
of liberty. If it triumphs thc vietory
will bo ours. If it fuils thc calamity
will rest equally upon the whole con
fines of our republic.
TUK SAM IC Ol.? FA MI I.I A It (.'KV.
Thc Republicans are now in a sore ex
tremity, and have turned their whole
cfibrt to abuse, misrepresentation and
vilification of thc South in the Irope that
they may hide the fraud, corruption and
usurpation which lia? characterized their
administration of *!'c government. Their
campaign arguments are the bloody shirt,
thc rebel brigadiers, the solid South,
tho Confederate war claims, thc Southern
war debt and payment for the negro.
Ry holding these sectional issues up to
tho country, and fanning anew thc strife
which burned in thc Northern breast fif
teen years ago, they think to terrify thc
credulous and timid, to keep their ranks
from depiction, and by at iea?t pretend
ing to have a living issue to present to
thc country, they hope to keep the voters
of tho Union from discovering that tho
party only lives in thc past, and, having
accomplished its mission, any further
leaso of power cnn only result in mis
chief and injury to thc country. It has
no promises for tho present or future, but
spends its timo in estranging those ele
ments of a common country, which it is
the most sacred duty of thc statesmen of
both parties to unite in concord by the
development nnd promotion of those
common interests which are possessed by
men in every section. The Republican
campaign is a crime to liberty, io thc
Union and to civilization. Tho parly
which conducts such a canvass should bo
retired from thc control of tho govern
ment, and tho indications aro that this
party of bato and corruption will meet
its just doom in November.
Tho election in Maine still remains in
doubt. The Republicans who have com
plete control of the election machinery
of tho government have licbl back most
unreasonably the returns, and now havo
the contest so close between Davis (Re
publican) and Fiaistcd (Fusion) candi
dates for Governor that it will take tho
official Court in January to decido who
has bcon elected. This course lins raised
the cry of fraud and tampering with thc
ballots which will cost thc Republican
party thousands of votes in November.
It is their old habit. 1'hey stole thc
Presidency in 187G and there is no doubt
that they mean to steal the Governorship
in Maine HOW. If successful in this they
will try to steal tho votes of other States
in November so aa to count Garfield in
us u return for his services in counting
Mr. Hayes in during the count of 187G.
This is tho Republican programme, and
nothing but thc most decided expression
on the part of tho people in favor ol
Hancock cnn secure his election. Thc
party of fraud and violence will not hesi
tate lo resort to any measures which may
be necessary to retain their usurpation ol
tho government.
Our friends in Abbeville aro having r
great deal of trouble in making theil
nominations fur County omcers. The j
adopted tho majority system for nomi
nating their candidates, and at tho firs
election secured tho portion of the ticke
wo published Inst week. At theirseconc
primary tito following nominations wen
made: For tho Legislature. John M
Morra!; ; For County Commissioners, YV
T. Cowan and J. F. Livingston ; Fo
School Commissioner, E. Cowan ; Fo
Coroner, Janus Shillitr, A third elec
lion for tho 24th inst, has been orderet
to complote tho ticket by nominating om
member of tho Legislature and om
County Commissioner. Wo aro not like
ly to have BO much trouble in tbi

failure to elect a full ticket of Count;
Commissioners on next Monday.

"I inquired about the census roturi
in ovory placo I waa in. They told n
that tho census of 1870 was taken 1
United States Marshals and their dop
ties who woro many of them utterly u
lilied for tho work. At ?cast ono-hr
of these, deputies who took that ornsu
they e. aired nie, could not write. Tl

scorned to bo a peculiar fecundity over
Where wo went. But thc greater part
tho incrcoso apparent of tue census i
