Tho ticket will. probably be completed next Monday, and then aii Democrats in the County will unite to givo tho National, State and County ticket as a wholo a rousing majority in November. 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 County, though it is possible to have i failure to elect a full ticket of Count; Commissioners on next Monday. Governor Jc#er has ordered Attorney Gcncrnl Yon^ions to appear and prose cuto the Cash-Shannon duelling cases a the ?ppiuficliuig icrui of ino Dariiugtoi Court. In this thc Governor ha i don his duty, for every interest of our societ; and tho vindication of law require tba those cases should be vigorously and ab! prosecuted. Attorney-General Youmnn will no doubt do nil that can bo dono b nu able and accomplished advocate, an it only remains to bo seen whether tb Courts and juries will do their duty i tho effort to suppress this crime I NORTHERN VIEWS OF OUR ST ATI What Senator ilarard'a CampMllaB Hay I Ii-?ml and Thought- Peace.
