Admlnistered-The Char? acter of Constables and Magistrate Trying a Case-Malicious Imprison? ment-R?tribution Coming There is needed a broom both long and strong to sweep out the stables of South Car? olina Radicalism. No sooner is one crime ex? posed than another demands attention; no sooner is one instance of Radical ignorance in high planes brought to light than a new batch require to be pnt on exhibition. Gov? ernors, Congressmen, Judges, State legisla tora and census-takers have had their turn, and now a colored magistrate comes to judg? ment. WHO ANO WHAt HB IS 1 Aaron Logan is a colored man, abont twen? ty-eight years of age, and black as the ace of spades. There ia an oiliness in his manner which ls very taking on first acquaintance, and as he has a good memory and can spout constitutions and orations by the hour, he is a small deity among the negroes in St. Thomas' and the adjoining pariahes. There he is Sir Oracle, and rales the colored people with autocratic sway; not in the in? terests of peace, but for the purpose of ex? citing an eternal round of anger and irrita? tion. One page in his history is his conduct when commissioner of registration in the fall of 1869. Then, by bis incendiary langnage and con Juc t, he drove the colore d people into open riot; so much so that troops were sent by General Clitz to Mount Pleasant to quiet the disturbance. Not long afterward h? was guilty of a small-sized villany for which be was IMPRISONED Iii FOET MACON, Where he amused himself by breaking stones. The why and wherefore are these: Logan ar? rested a gentleman named Fraser on the charge that he bad prevented tho negroes from voting. At night Mr. Fraser was dragged by a squad of armed negroes across the coun? try to Charleston, being taken off the road here and there by his captors to be exhibited to the negroes on the different places near to which they passed. As soon as the party reached Charleston Mr. Fraser was released, but we do not know that he has yet recovered from the fatigues of that fearful night. Logan was TRIED BY MILITARY COMMISSION And sentenced to two years' imprisonment, which afterward was commuted to six months. This term he passod in Fort Macon, as already stated. Logan would have been in the Legis? lature, bat for his imprisonment. The jail and the gallows in this way reduce the supply of raw material in a very unwarrantable manner. ANOTHER FREAK. We are also told that Logan bought a tract of land which bo was to hold in trust for some colored people. Bnt Logan was s barp. He had the titles .drawn in his own nome, and now this very land is soon to bo sold by the shojiff for Logan's private debts. The deluded colored people will, we fear, have no redress. THE 5EXT CAPER. Logan was quiet for awhile, and being an eminently proper person, was appointed a ma? gistrate. Then, indeed, he had the parish un? der his control, as soon bec une evident. Fre? quently he gathers the colorad people in crowds af four hundred and fy'o hundred, whom he en? tertains with bis denunciation of the whites, in fact, he bas had his own way in everything. Some time ago Mr. L. P.'Smith, a pTttuter in Christ Church Parish, had some trouble with i negro woman named Hannah Deveanx, which inded in Hannah being charged with assault ind battery. The case was tried before Magis rate Lucas, and the woman committed in do 'anlt of bail. Logan then took the matt er in land, sued ont a writ of habeas corpus, when io one knew what was going on, and set Han iah free. THE NEXT DEVILTRY. In Jnly last a colored mau went to Mr. L. ?. Smith, who was then on hts plantation, and laid be had orders to arrest him. Mr. Smith isked what his warrant was. The colored man mawed that "he did not know what the war ant was," but he would go and find out. No .hing more was heard of the affair until Thurs lay last, when it came to a head. FOUR NEOROES ARREST A WHITE MAN. On the previous night (Wednesday) four urned negroes arrested George Brown, a ser? rant of Mr. Smith's, on tho public highway, say ng that they had orders from Magistrate Logan io ascertain thc business of every ODO whom ihey saw. Brown told them where be was go? ng, and was taken under guard to his destina :ion. What was the purpose ot these armed nen, in prowling at night around Mr. Smith's plantation, can easily be guessed by the light >f subsequent events. On the following morn? ing, the same fonr negroes, armed to Ito teeth, urea ted Mr. Smith and took him before Logan, who waa nine miles off. A KEG BO MAGISTRATE. When Logan had finished his breakfast, he trent into the room where Mr. Smith was. LOGAN (to Mr. Smith.) "Take yonr hat off. * Mr. SMITH. "YOU have net opened your ?oort, and there is no necessity to do what yon say." Looa* (savagely.) "You had better I" Some time passed and Logan gave no sign >f bearing the case. Ur Smith then told Logan that he would waive an examination, ind give bail to appear for trial. Logai re? plied th it ho would not take bail, and would sxamine the case himself. There was nothing to do but awai t thx pleasure of this negro magistrate, and sevtjfehours later the prosecu trix, Hannah Deveaux, came. Logan then ope ed a book, read a statement previously made by the proseoutnx, und asked her whether that was what she swore to. Of ?ourse she said yes, tbe charge being assault and battery. Logan next asked Mr Smith if tie bad any witnesses. Air. Smith said that whenever the case was properly heard, so that tie might know the ovidence and cross-exam? ine the witnesses, be would give his testi? mony. Loo AN. "Have yon anything to soy?" ME. SMITH. "Not until I bear tho evidence igainst me." Loo AN. "If you don't answer I will commit toa if I see fit. Will you answer, I say? Do rou decline to give evidence?"' SMITH. "Yeal except under proper circum I tances." Loo AK. "Then I find you guilty of assault tnd battery." COMMITTED FOB CONTEMPT. It was Logan's evident desire to send Mr. Smith to Jail, bot be promptly gave bail. When Jae recognizances were signed, Logan said to Hr. Smith, "J will comma you Co jail for con ernpi of cowrl." Logan dtew np the commit? ment, imposing a fine of $10 and 24 hour's im? prisonment. Mr Smith asked to be allowed to get a change of cloth tog. Thia was refused, and the prisoner was brought to Charleston and carried to jail by Logan's negro guard Mr. Smith at oooe sued out a warrant against Logan for false imprisonment and official mis? conduct, and the case will be beard on Wed? nesday. CONCLUSION. Mark well tbe eircums'anees I A negro ma? gistrate arrests a Northern white man, allons bim no opportunity of bearing the evidence against bim, find) him guilty, and then sends him to jail for "contempt of court." What this "contempt'' was, wo do not know. The only crime that Mr. Smith committed, that we see, is i bat he did not take off bis bat until the court opened. And for this, twenty-four hours in jail and $10 tine ! 11 Mr. Smith is a North? ern man and ia highly esteemed by hie neigh? bors. A SHOOTING SCRAPE NEILB HAMB?BO.-T'ae Augusta Chronicle of yesterday says that a shooting scrape occurred near Hamborg on Saturday afternoon between two young meD, John Henry Key, Jr., and Freeman Powell, in which the former received a pistol bati'in his left ankle, which passed between the bone and tendons without serious injury, the wounded man being able to walk abont the atre?ta after the occurrence. The difficulty, as we under? stand it, is of rather a mysterious nature, the parties baring previously been friendly. Key, as we learn, had walked down the railroad and joined company with Powell, when the latter urged the former to go home with him. Key declined, when Powell proposed to shoot him if he did not. Key treated the threat with indif? ference, not believing it uttered in earnest; but P?well put it in execution, firing three shots, oue of which took effect BB above noted, and then fled, not affording Key an opportunity to recover from his surprise and retaliate, lhere aie one or two constables in Hamburg at pre? sent, from Edgefield Courthouse, who are re? ported to be in pursuit of Powell for an as? sault made on Woolly, the tax collector, in which the latter is said to have suffered a loss of two or three lingua denials from a blow in the mouth. THE BOAT RACE.-By half-past five o'clock Saturday afternoou, quite a large number of ladies and gentlemen had assembled on the Battery, to witness the proposed race batween thc boats Oriole and Blacksnake. Tbero was a stiff breeza blowing and a heavy sea rolling, and it was generally balieved that the boars would be unable to pull over the course marked out, viz : from the White Point buoy to a point three quarters of a milo distant off the Battery, to be marked by tho boat Louly. Yet the crews determined to ascertain for themselves, and a little before six pulled out towards the buoy, but wore soon convinced that it was almost impossible to have the race as designed, and, at the suggestion of the judges, concluded to have the race up tho river, and accordingly rowed to Chisolm'a mill. Their destination was unknown to the assemblage on the Batte? ry, and the report being circulated that the race was postponed, the. people, about half. past six o'clock, dispersed. The boats reached the mill abont six o'clock, and the judges, Captain James Fraser, start? ing judge for thc Oriole, and Mr. L. Chisolm for the Blacksnake; Messrs. F. J. Porcher, W. O. DeSaussure and J. F. Mathewos, deciding judges, agreed that the raes should bc from Cbisolm's wharf to a point marked by tbo Lou? ly, just beyond the Now Bridge, the distance being about a mile, ft was also decided that as the Blacksnake bad only six oars, while her opponent had eight, she should be allowed six seconds. The crews were: Mr. John W.Lewis, Jr., coxswain; D. D. Parker, etroke; William G. Webb, R, M. Means, J. P. DeSauusare, H. N. Parker, J. H. Boper, H. A. DeSaussure, J. R. Matbewes, of the Oriole. William Como, cox swain; H. B. Bull, stroke; George Edwards, N. Simons, H. B. Simons, G. C. Gaillard, W. A. Pringle, of the Blacksnake. Shortly after six o'clock the signal to start was given by the firing of a pistol. The Oriole made ajmf length at the first jump, and con tinned to gain. When half way she waa about six lengths ahead, and at the terminus was nearly one hundred yards in advance. The time made was: Oriole, 6 miuutea 15 seconds; Blacksnake, 7 minutes and 10 seconds, the Oriole winning by 49 seconds. There were very few spectators, and conse? quently tbero was not as much excitement as at the late international race, but still there was considerable excitement and enjoyment to tboso who were present. We hope that the race will be repeated at an early day. CRUMBS.-That portien of State-street, be? tween Chalmers and Broad streets, will be paved shortly. No cases of interest were bsfore the Mayor Saturday. The Chamber of Commerce will meet Tues? day nigbt in the Hibernian Hall. Charles Jones alias Lafayette, who was ar? rested on suspicion of stealing a watch and chain from Mrs. Kinsman, proved his in? nocence and was discharged. A white woman stole them. Satuiday morning Octavius Nelson, colored, reported to the detective office with an old coat and a gold watch, stating that thoy bad been dropped the nigbt before by a colored woman. Officer Holloway worked up the case and found the owner, W. T. Mitchell, from whom the ar? ticles had been stolen. The returns of incomes of professional men to the City Assessor was for six months instead of ten, as stated. The Legal Debating Society will meet this evening. It is stated that the house whioh was pulled down to make room for tbe new buildings at the corner of Broad andfaChnrch streets, was the secoud house built in Charleston. The White Snlphur Springs rejoice in the pr?senos of Bloque Bey, a Minister of Turkey, while the Charleston Hotel boarders rejoice io Turkey with giblet eau ;e, whioh is a hundred per cent, better than the first.

Mr. Julian A. Selby, of the Colombia Phoenix, was at the White Sulphur Springs "Press" ball, the only repr?sentative from South Caro? lina.

We had no intention of c dorine- into a news? paper controversy witu tho newly appointed pilote-our end having boon answered when we gave their nam*, a to the public. The mer? chants and mariners of Charleston can readily discover the soi t of merit and capacity possess? ed by these men if they choose further to in? quire. We saw cards fros four of them in your jour? nal of the 2d instant, which would have been noticed sooner but for more important engage menta. The first is from Edward Jenkins, a colored man, who very properly heads the list, as his race is now in the ascendant. Wo feel very charitable towards Jenkins, and have no pre? judice against him on account of his color; we would rather oncoorage bim than otherwise. He is civil, and we honestly believe ia the best pilot of the four-so let Jenkins pass. The next card is from Frederick Fisher. We retract nothing we said of this "young min" ot twenty-two years. Wa still regard bim as en? tirely incompetent to discharge the duties of a pilot. He attempts to make capital out of hia youth, but we grieve to say this gives no prom? ise for the future. His communication com? pels us to say tba: from our knowledge of his mental capacity ho is not likely to improve either by age or exp::ienoe. Charles Camps comes text. As regards the dogree of liability to be attached lo bis many statements, it is only necessary for us to ask ft ho can deny that it was proved in evidonce be? fore the United States Court that he obtained his license by frau'i and misrepresentation and that it waa subsequently taken from him? Can be deny that it also caine out in evidence that he hau purloined money from a shipmate, which has never yet been recovered from him aa far as our knowledge goea? We have also the testimony of two responsi? ble merchants and a retired shipmustcrof thia port, that tho captain of tho brig Hampden stated iu their preuenoe that Camps, when on board of their brig os pilot, requested the cap? tain to take command and bring his vessel to. for the purpose of b.?ing boarded bv tho nort physician, an I that tho captain judged him incompetent to have charge of his vessel. The next and last card is from Mr Henry Rahtert. Our reply to him is brief. What vessel was he ever put aboard of when be was with the old pilote ? We know of but one, and who waa inaide the bar sud safo enough to ba managed by any "greenhorn." If we mistake not, be was twice discharged, from two different boats, for neglect of du. y. lo conclusion, we say that we have been as lenient towards these men as the character of their pubhahe 1 cards would permit us to be, and disclaiming all malice, we design to drop the 8Ubjecr ; but if provoked into further con? troversy, which we will try to avoid, they will find we have left many truths untold which it would bo lesa agreeable for them to bear, than for us to utter.
