Tho trial of tho Dallas brothers,
charged with tho murder of Charles H.
West, Jr., in Charleston, several months
ago, oommeuced in that city, yesterday.
( PLUMB IA, S. C~
Wednesday Morning, Hoy, li, 1873.
.Rich Legacy from thePkit.
The power of the American flag to
protect not only American citizens, bot
all others who seek tho protection of its
folds, was splendidly illustrated by an
iucident wbiob occurred during the
residence, of Hon. Joel B. Pointsett, as
American Minister, at tbo City of
Mexico. Sumo foreigner had in some
way fallen uuder the ban of popular
dislike and condemnation. Considering
his lifo as not safe, he sought tho quar?
ters of the American Minister for safely.
Tho mob soon gathered iu a highly in
censed state, threatening attack on the
premises. When persuasion failed to
quiet their excitement, Mr. Poiutsett
directed his secretary, the lute Hun.
Jouu M. Mason, of Virginia, to display
the national ensign. As this symbol of
national power spread its slurs and
stripes to the breeze, the infuriated
populace looked iu awe and terror upon
tho significant, net, gave up their mis?
chievous purpose, and relinquished all
further pursuit of the person they were
in search of. They wisely shrunk from
tho issue, which they saw was plainly
tendered, in case they prosecuted their
mud designs any further. It was n
proud aud beautiful incident in Ameri?
can history. It demonstrated tbo pro?
tective power nud noble beneficence ul
the natiouul standard, before its folds
were stuiued with tho blood of our own
citizens, or durkeucd and disgraced by
oppression aud cruelly, exercised against
sovereign States.
A magnificent picture, representing
this splendid historical incident, was
painted by order of South Carolina. Iu
commemorating it, especial honor was
paid to Mr. Poiutsett, tho piiucipul
figure in the composition, as be had
been tho piiucipul aotor iu the transac?
tion. Subsequently, it was presented
by tho State to another highly bouored
sou, Geueral Andrew Jackson. He had
been made tho recipient, also, of n
handsome testimonial from the Indies of
Charleston, iu the shape of a large sil?
ver vuse. In his will, ho bequeathed
these beanliful tributes to tho admira?
tion which bis native State felt for him,
in trust, to his adopted sou, Audrew
Jackson, Jr., with directions, that
"should our happy country not bo
blessed with peace?an event not always
to bo expected?ho will, at tho close of
the war, or end of the conflict, present
each of said articles of iuestimublo
value to that patriot residiug iu tho
State from whioh they were presented
who shall be adjudged by his country?
men or tho ladies to have been tbo most
valiant in the defence of his country
und our country's rights."
In accordance with tho spirit, it not
letter, of this bequosl, his son, as exe?
cutor of thu last will and tostaraeut of
General Jackson, on 3.1 April, lb?i,
transmitted the vase and picture to the
ca o of Go v. B. F. \V. Alston, to bo
handed to tho Palmetto Association.
On the -1th of May following, Governor
Alston issued u proclamation, which
authoritatively carried out this disposi?
tion. "Now, therefore," it ran, "iu
i view of the impossibility of selecting the
i most valiant where all are brave, in
j consideration of tbo courngo nnd cou
I duct of said regimen!, acting as n unit
. ou the fields of Mexico, and iu conside?
ration, also, of what is understood to
I have been the purpose of tiie venerable
testator, namely, that these inestimable
j memorial.* of bis own gall miry at New
Orleans should bo restored, through
some worthy citizen, to his native State,
, wh< uce tliey came, there lo remain for
? ever, I do hereby present and convoy to
\V. B. Stanley, President of the Pal?
metto Association, and to his successors
tin office, Hie silver vase and picluro,
presented, Ac , to be preserved among
tbo trophies of the said Palmetto llegi
nient, for the honor and gratification of
tho surviving members thereof, nnd in
trust for tho last surviving member of
the sumo."
During tho destruction and devasta?
tion of tho civil v?nr, perhaps in the
sack of Columbia, tho picture, with the
glorious spirit which it so strikingly
typified, was trampled in the dust nud
i lout. The vuse is iu the keeping of our
J friend, Captain Stanley, in I rust, for tho
j association of which he is President. A
j manuscript copy (>f tho correspondence
of Governor AI ton with Andrew Jack
sou, Jr., nnd of tho Governor's pro?
clamation, is neatly framed, protected
I by glass, nnd may bo seen at the Cap?
tain's store.
As tho trophies of Marius would not
let Cm iar sloop, so tbo incident iu the
Cily of Mexioo, tho achievement of tho
Palmetto llegimont ou tho snmo soil, the
distinction of Mr. Fointsett, aud tbo
brilliant famo of Gen. Jacksou, should
provo valuable lessons to our youth, in?
fusing in thorn a spirit of uucaloulating
devotion to country, and nourishing an
honorable ambition to serve it in their
tarn with equal fidelity.

The Klccttona.
Our readers will be uble to approciato
the signal change in the popular vote
from the following figures: In 1872, the
Republicans had majorities in Mary?
land, 1,935; Virginia, 4,880; New York,
55,000; Wisconsin, 18,510; Kansas, 31,
078; Illinois, 56,478; Minnesota, 20,
407; Michigan 59,175; Massachusetts,
74,300; New Jersey, 14,860. This year
Maryland gives a Democratic victory of
20,000?a gain of 22,000; Virginia, 22,
000?a gain of 25,000; New York, 15,
000?a gain of 67,000; Wisconsin, 15,
000?a gain of 2:},300; Kansas, (csti
mated.) 5,000?a gain of 30,000. Six
Stales, Maryland, Virginia, New York,
Wisconsin, Kamms aud Illinois, have
boeu carried by handsome majorities.
Large gains have been made iu Massa?
chusetts, New Jcrscj* and Mississippi,
and a partial victory won in Minnesota
aud Michigan.
Sereral Republican papers have put
forth apologies and explanations of this
dire result. They eceai to differ some?
what as to what, dealt them such heavy
blows. It is not a mallor of much cou
cem, so we are certain the thing has
boeu effectuuily douo. If the elements
of opposition did not muster exclusively
tinder one standard, if there was Komn
diversity of opinion, some variety ifi tbo
names, and some diffcrot co in tho oh-1
jects amongst them, they arc all united
iu one thing, viz: u desiro aud purpose I
to overthrow the Radical R -publican J
party. It has been substantially a vic?
tory for the Conservative influence, I
whether if. was called in one place the :
Democratic, iu another the independent,
the farmers' or the people's ticket. In |
every instance, it was anti-Radical. This
opposition, embracing the qualities of
! honesty, progress and liberal ideas, is
rapidly crystaliziug, and will go ou cou
queiiug and to couquer.

The Watkins Troope.? Irwin's Hull
was again filled, last night, to witness
the performance- by this truly deserving
troupe of the drama of "Trodden
Down, or under Two Flags. It is one
of the few plays that make s lasting im?
pression on tho mind, to be called up in
after years, as a pleasant reminiscence of
tbe past. Of tbo two bright particalar
stars, Mr. WatkiuB is an admirable
comedian, of original stump, blending
his comedy with a pathos and energy
seldom found united on the stage,
though seldom apart iu nature. It is
not too much to say that in the now
I drama he plays the part of the Shin
gawn admirably, and that he fills tho
three acts with a life and vigor to which
wc have been unaccustomed of late.
Hose Wat kins, too, is a fine actress, her
action und reading excellent, and she
rise .. ..t critical moments to true tragic
power. Id her defiance of Wolff, when
bho brands him as a liar and a traitor,
her acting evoked a roar of applause,
which broke spontaneouly from the
entire bouse. And in the reading of her
mother's legacy, she evinced the most
exquisite pathos. It is evident through?
out that Fergus McCarty, the patriont
officer of 179S, has not much education,
and has held no high rank in the world,
but he is never commonplace and never
vulgar, and when he knows that he has
a right to defend tho fair being whom
chance aud fraud has pnt into his
power, he does so with a passionate love
and undaunted courage which speaks
strongly to tho heart of every spectator.
The other characters were very well sus?
tained. This evening, the new play,
entitled "Bank, or Woman's Heart,"
will be performed; followed by tho
popular eomediatta of "Two to Quar?
rel." reserved seats can be secured at
J. P. Bawls' Music Store.
