"It is not. tobe doubted that in the
days of its old ascendancy, and of its
Bucoessful contests with the Federal and
Whig parties, the strength of tho Demo?
cratic party lay in tbe energy and vita?
lity of its popular impulses and sympa?
thies. Mauy of the questions at issue
between the parties were constitutional
questions of some difficulty and nioety,
upon which-'able statesmen-: and jurists
might weih ba excused for entertaining
different opinions, hut the popular in?
stinct, although it might not always fol?
low the subtleties and distinctions,of the
constitution al. argument, was generally
on tho side of tho party which advocated
a literal construction of the Constitu?

popular feeling which in the end deoidec
the fate of the United States Bank. Ii

"Tho 'new departure,' so-called; of thi
Ohio Democracy is simply a re-affirm
nnco and application'to the issues of th?
hour of these original prinoiples of go

the Unsettled, anxious time Which fol

of the Republican party, and, the prac

Government remains tho same, and th
Constitution is unchanged, except b
the new amendments-and these, in th
opinion of the best constitutional law

PROOF AT LAST.-In Spartauburj

Dick Brcwton. Dick is a mau of colo
and, it seems, had become obnoxious 1
some of his associates-Jim Rhode
Hugh Montgomery, Pete Lombrightan

named lot it be known to some of the
friends that they intended to Ku Kit
Dick, and in a few rights after a band
disguised men appeared at Dick's hous
took him out and infliotod upon him
severe whipping, drawing the ruby pr?t
freely. Dick had a friend or two wi
bim at tho time, and they were sattB?h
that they knew some of the disgnisi
men. So fully convinced was Dio
that, meeting l'eto Lam bright a few da
after, he told him that he either hud
"fight ont" or "pay out" of the scrap
Pete thought discretion the better po
of valor, and agreed to pay Dick ten d<
lars, and turn State's evidenoe. Tl
was satisfactory. Keeping this to hil
self, Diok met with Hugh Montgomei
and effected the same arrangement, ai
received bis ten dollars. But Ji
Rhodes proved a stubborn case, ai
Dick sought jostine before Trial Justi
Montgomery, of Spartanburg. Jimn
was tried a few days since, dnly cc

THAT IS NOT TRUE.-The Columbia
Union, pi Tuesday, contains the follow?
ing, which ia untruo as far as tho Ku
Klux order is ooncorned:
"Resigned,- H. R. Whito, of Union,
his ?frico'ns County Commissioner, in
pursuance of special order No. 3, K. K.
K. Resignation accepted."
Tho editor of tho Union delights in re?
cording Ku Klux and other outrages oc?
curring in the upper Counties of this
State, and nevor lets an opportunity pass
of raking np old grievances aud parading
them before hts readers, in some new
and more offensive coloring.
Wo are aware that two mouths ago our
County Commissioners were notified to
vacate their positions, and Mr. White
tendered his resignation to Governor
Scott, in tba shape the Union gives
above, but tho Governor refused to ac?
cept it. Since then one of tho Commis?
sioners, John Tiuslcy, has resigned, and
another, Simpson G lies-neither' of
whom could rend or write-has aban?
doned his office and taken up his resi?
dence somewhere about fifteen miles bo
low Columbia, in Richland County. Thus
Union was left without a Board of Com?
missioners, and the poor house, jail and
other County creditors were left without
being able to draw money from the
Treasurer, while tho roads and other
County matters were being neglected,
much to tho injury of tho whole people.
Mr. White, seeing this condition of
our County affairs, and supposing that
if he resigned Governor Scott wonld or?
der an cleotion, voluntarily tendered his
resignation, and requested tho Governor
to do something to relievo the County.
There was no order from the K. K. or
any one else, to intimidate bim to resign,
i It was a voluntary act of his own.

A WHOIIE FAMILY KILLED RY RUNAWAY
j HORSES.-A Missouri paper gives an
acoount of a sad accident which occurred
near Johnstown, in that Stato, on Sun?
day morning last, by which four persons
were killed-a father, mother, son and
an infant child. From tho meagre re?
port, we glean tho following: Mr. Bot?
tles and family were returning from
church in a two-horso wagon. In cross
lug Deepwater, the horses became
frightened und ran i?w?y: dragging tho
son, who was driving, a distance of near?
ly a quarter of a mile. lu going this
distance from the creek, it appears that
the mother jumped ont, after throwing
out her infant child. In tho afternoon,
a traveler from Germantown discovered
tho lifeless body of tho son near the road.
Soon after, ho found tho woman with her
neck broken, nnd the child lying near
her ftlivo, but almost dead from tho effect j
oh tho heat. Further on, ho found the j
wagon upon the dead body of tho father.
The child has since died.
Mrs. Woodhull is reportod to have,
said, speaking of woman's suffrage:
"Next year I shall bo cleated President

said to tho President last winter, when
I was in Washington: 'Ulysses,' I said
I. call him Ulysses, ns we' are very old
friends; wo grow np together-'Ulysses,'
said I, 'yon ought to havo taken a strong
position on the fourteenth amendment
in favor of femalo suffrage, the same ns
you havo in favor of negro snffrago on
the fifteenth amendment. That would
have made you strong J 'I know I hod,'
ho replied, 'but I was so situated that I
couldn't. The politicians wouldn't lot

you hadn't the moral courage to do what
you knew to bo right, you will havo to
