Who has a Bight to Vota According! to '
the New Conatltution.
Not long after the New Constitution ofthia 1
State was promulgated, we took occasion In 1
advance of all the journals of thla Slate, to '
demonstrate, that after its ratification l>y '
Congress, no citisen of the State could he '
prevented by reason of past politieal coo '
lnct, from voting at all elections; and this 1
is perfectly clear and plain to any who '
will read the clause on suffrage. We are 1

editors of the Charleston and other i
papers ars showing the sane fact. Gen.
Hampton, also, in his publio speeches, is
also pointing out this eery important mat
ter, and showing that in all future eleetiona
everybody in the State can vote, without
respect to party. Now, that onr city pa
prrt have ta'ken up this subject, and Gen.
Hampton, we presume all the District newspapers
will venture to take the same
ground.
If there is a single wliiteman in Greenville
District, wiMi capacity to think and
reason, that still inclines to the Radical
party, this Saturdaj-'s demonstration Tght
to open his eyes to the motives, ends and
purposes, of the carpet-baggers, white and
negro. This man Whittem'TK, (rom the
North, for instance, settles himself In a
a'rong negro section of the State, and has
himself elected by negro votes to Congress,
and has the assurance to oome here to
Greenville, a whiteman'a District, to urge
people to sustain his negro rule, that he
may enjoy his $5,(X)0 salary. Abo the negro
carpet-baggor from the North, Randolph,
ropreeentiug low country negroes iu
the Legislature, comes here, into this white
region, to advise white people to sustain
the negro predominance in the Legislature
Merciful Heaven 1 is there a white man so
low as to pander to such creatures, and
glory in living ttie understrappers of such
men as addressed the negro crowd on Sat
urdft)* ? Tbe v?ry negroes iMtnseiTe*, before
they were demoi aliited, UBed to despise 1
that cltM,
We believe that there were very few ^
while Radical? present at the meeting; they (
aro becoming very scarce in Greenville. ,
Thaddcus Stephens Dead?His Body ,
Guarded by Negroes.
This famona fanatic and hater died la?t
week in Washington. His body lay in i
state for a day or two, a volunteer negro ,
company, by aubiivisiona, acted as guard
of honor! They seem to have been fit in
Etruments to represent the savage spirit of i
the defunct ?Tr.iuir*s. A lut of these sav- 1
ages, who had been on gua'd, when re- I
lievid hv another squad, marching down
one of tbe streets of Washington, had a j
briok thrown at them by aome mischicvon^ j
person, therenpon the rascals fired a volley j
of loaded muskets, pell meII, right through j'
the street, to kill anybody that might hap- i
pen in the way, ar.d one negro waiter at
the door of a public house was shot
through the thigh. The circumstance
hows how shallow io the negro lies the
savage nature, under all tbe training and
external civilisation, bestowed by white
men upon the race. Such creatures as
STKniE.vs and his imitators have done all
they could to uncover the natural savage
ism of the negro, and are succeeding.
.Radical Frauds in the Presidential Flection.
There ia uo consistency in Radicalism,
except consistency in party frauds and
false pretences. Notwithstanding their )
professed regard for popular rights, the J
.Legislatures of Florida and Alabama, ap '
pointed by the bayonet, have determined j
to deprive the voter? of those States of I lie j
privilege of voting for Presidential elector#
and to take it into their own handa. The I
absurdity and glaring fraud of this thing
has never been exceeded. The Legislature
of Alabama was elected under the bayonet
by a minority of the voters of that State;
and both that and the Florida Legislature
If/ore the candidates for President, were
even named. They might aa well authorize
Oen. Okaxt to appoint eleotora to vote
for himself or the Radical Congress. In
fAet it is no election there at all, and they
know it, and have adopted their fraudulent
plan donhtl.'fs in suhservieney to dictation
from their party leaders in Washington, on
purpose to prevent a fair election in those
States. It is an admission that the States
would rote for Sktmour and Bl.uk if the
people had the chance.
The Position of Oen. Hampton?Radical
Falsehoods Contradicted.
Tbo silly lie* whioh Northern Radio
la circulate about the Southern men, we
should think had by this time disgusted even
Radical stomachs, but that party rest* for it*
| support and success on delusion and fnschood,
hence ('icy are oontinually fed with tbcm by
their lenders. Wo publish the speech of Gen.
llAurros, delivered in the Democratic Conventi'-o
ir. Columbia, to place every one in
possession of his truo sentiments and opinions.
iWo would suggest to the J'ionerr, published at
Ashovilte, which publishes Northern Radical
views, the propriety of copying this spoeeb,
and to cease trying to make capital by abut*
ing the best men of the South, men who aro
i * as sincere in peace as they were brave and
trne in war, who are open and honorable iu
all their ways, wbo can never glory like some
in supporting Radiral degradation to their
own States, and delight in subjection to the
rule of the African negro. The truth, is like
every cause, without a good principal to support
it, Radicalism can only hope to be sus
tainod by misrepresentation of facts, and slanderous
attacks on the noble and Uue men, wh
us * o i are necessarily opposed to them.

The On?t Democratic Demonstration In
CHreenrllle on tka XTtnlni of tha 19th.
Tbe pebllo were not dliappnliUd in the
success attending the gathering of tbe Democracy
on Thursday Keening last. Tbe precession
was formed et the cempna of the Female
College, about 7) o'clock, and extended
to tbe Main street.
In the procession were torch-lights,
transparencies, banners. Ac. The dericee
nn the transparencies were truly amusing.
On one was a negro with a spy glass look
ing Into the moon, end underneath were
the words " forty seres of Isnd ano?h?r?
Sen. Grant sitting on sn upturned horse
molting a cigar disconsolately; the cerpet>?gger
was represented npon his arrival
with a very thin carpet-bag, aid departing
arllh baggage in profusion; tLere wera othar
levleea equally amusing.
The Committee of arrangements had erected
l strong and capacious platform immediately
n front of the portico of the old Court House,
ind together with the speakers present took
heir seats on this. The music wagon, with

?. Easily, after brief and pertinent remarket
ntroduced successively tdo distinguished
ipeakors?Gen. Hampton, Col. Thomas, nona
t. Bcrt, God. McGowan and Ex-Gov. Pxrhy,
Gen. Hampton spoke first, and both the
ipecch and speaker was received with unfunded
applauso. His clear, mauly, patriotic
ind truthful arguments wore addressed to the
inderstandings of all. Col. Thomas spoke
eith his usual force, and excellent, good sense.
The Daily Phoenix of Saturday, furnishes an
spitomo of his introductory remarks, which
is they relate especially to the position of
don. Hampton, wo tako the liberty of inserting
s
"Colonel Tuom.ir, in tho opening of bis
peeeb, took occasion to deny tbat General
IIamptox's political addresses were open to
he criticisms that n mendacious press Nortlf"
ud passed upon them. IIo remarked, that
icquainted with General Hampton's private
counsels, as well as with bis public utterances,
ie wns prepared to say, that Gen. II., was
arousing the public mind of tho State only to
the peaceful triumph of tho ballot?that his
track in war had been fiery, and was attended
with the symbols of victory?but that now
the wbite-robed messengers o( peace hovered
around his pathway and cheered him on, as
bo was loading tho gallant Democracy of the
State along tho road that pointed to a Democratic
triumph, and that led to a State redeem"
ad and a Union restored indeed?and that the
laurels that decked IIamhtox's brow as a warrior,
wero U> be entwined with the civic garlands
of a high statesmanship."

the only objection any ono could have to bis

be sp-'ko only about fifteen iniuutcs.
lien. Mi.'CJowan, gave on animated and
capital papular address, as is bis wont on all
occasions of the kind, and contributed greatly
to the enthusiasm of the mectiug.
(lov. Pkrry, closed the speaking in a short
and strong address, lie and all the speakers
spoko kindly of the frccdniin, and warned
them against the delusions of the Radicals, j
a id showing that it was their true interest to
support the Democrats.
Indisposition of the Senior Editor.
We regret exceedingly to have to st.ite that
ur esteemed Senior has been inure or less
oonflned to his bed for tho past week emaciating
bint somewhat. He has been subjected to
intermittent fever, quite prostrating in its offects;
notwithstanding, every alternate day
he has boon up and about. We trust that be
will soon recover entirely. He has been enabled
to give some uttcntion, however, to the
paper.
Distillation of F;uits.
The commissioner of Internal Ilcverue
might have added, perhaps, millions ol did
lars to the United States Treasury, by
promptly publishing the terms on which
fruit in?y be diAMl en. II can only l?e done
hy exempting distill A of fruit of all the
vast and complex pmvie-one of the Tax Act,
which he has a right to do, except the simple
tax of fifty centa per gallon?in add!
tion he should only require a registration of
the still, specification of the premises, and
the penalty for false returns and non-payment
of the tax. No one will undertake
to distil fruit until the commi.-s:oo?r nmkea
known his regulations, and it seems he in
teuds all the peaches and apples In the
South to ripen and rot before he does It,
yet the United States l? eu'd to be needing
revenue It is better for the country that
fruit should go to the still than grain.

A Happy Occaalon.
We had the pleasure last even'ng of being
present at the Methodist Church in this
place and to witness the petformance ol the
mart Inge ceremony. Our friend*, Mr. J.
Mims Sullivan and Miss Jrxkik Stoku,
were the principal actois, and a truly interesting
scene it was; a beautiful and lovely
bride and a handsome and noble looking
bridegroom.
' Compactest couple! j r ssing aide by aide--.
Ah! the white bonnet?that raveal* th<
bride."
A very large number ol persona were there
wli<> *ym path/zed with them in their felicity
and wished thein a long life of happiness
undisturbed by even the slightest wave o
trouble, and we join in, in invoking opoi
their future their most ideal wishes.

doubtless pass, to appoint a committe to investigate
outrages upon Union men, and the
Dumber of murders committed, with the fncts>

This being % grand scheme for collecting

apt to succeed in the Legislature. Everything
is disloyal, according to Radicalism, that is opposed
to its own viltaioiee. The noblest men
of the Fuderol Army, as soon as they are
known to be Democrats, arc denounced ss disloyal,
whilst every rogue or scoundrel of high
er low degro, who is noisy for Radioalism, is
pronounced loyal of course. If Gen. Ororsi
Washington and Ucn. Akdriw Jackson were
both to rise from the dead, and deuounce Radicalism,
as they would surely do, they would
be pronounced disloyal at once by Whittkmore,
and uegro Randolph, Neagls atid others.

On Saturday last, tho House of Representatives
was employed in discussing a bill to prevent
discrimination between persons, by those
carrying on business under lieense, on account
of race, color or previous condition, which drew
forth quite an animated discusstv a, and which
showed plainly the division line between the
races. The following is the bill as passed to
its third reading :
He it exacted by the Senate and House of
Representatives of the State of South Carolina,
now mot and sitting in General Assembly,
and hy the authority of the same:

of this Sill it shall not be lawful for any party
or parties, engaged in any business, calling or

or oliartcr is required by law, municipal, State,
Federal or otherwise, to discriminate bctwoen
persons, on nccouut of race, color or previous
condition, who siiall make lawful application
for tbo bouefit of such business, calling or
pursuit.
Skc. 2. Any party ro discriminating shall
be considered its having violated this act, and
upon conviction, shall be punished by a fine
of not lees than one thousand dollars, or imprisonment
for not less than twelve mouths.

in the United States. At first* when Set

Stoury Note, New Harmony, Pisgah, Green
Pond, Fairview and Durban's and Rabun's, 9
in t.nu.ber?having united at the former place.
After the Schools had all assembled, they were
placed in position by L. M. Austin, the Marshal
of tbo day, (and who, by the way, went
throagh the fatigueiug duties of his office with
promptness and efficiency.). I assure yon,
Metmrm. Editor*, the right was worth seeing?
about 700 Sunday School scholars, with 9
beautiful banners thrown to tbe brecse; truly,
we may call this a Sunday School Army.?
After forming, we were marched to stand
and seats erected for the speakers and Schools
Tbe services were opened by n renermblo servant
of tbe Lord, Rev. L. Robertson. We
were tben refrosbotl and entertained by
speeches from Rev. C. B. Stewart, Rev. Mr.
Mendenhall, Itev. I. Rilley ; tt int?rfilf, fine
singing by Dial Sunday School: While the
audience were (Wing their undivided attention
to the brilliant efforts of Rev. I. Rilley,
the Marshal of the day announced dinner.?
Mr. Rilley itnuiediately cloacd hia remarks
with a good humored appeal to all present to
behave with conduct becoming the occasion.
The procession was immediately reformed,
marched to a grove of deep and gratefal shade,
where our eyes were gladdened by the sight ol
a table 4.00 foot square, groaning under its
burden of good things. .Entering at otic corner,
one rank on each side of the table, <ha
procession moved slowly along where the table
was filled. After the wants of the innet
man were amply supplied, the procession mov
ed again to the stand, when Messrs. Roberts
Rilley and Stewart, again entertained ns wltl
their talent and eloquence, intersperoed wltl
I singing from Fair*lew Schools.
Thus ended oue of the plcasantest days w<
ever spent. And we are persuaded that ther
was aot many persona in that vast asaetabl;
but felt tbs power of the religion of Jesu
Christ. And would to Ood ita power and in
finance could be felt more nod realised nor
; in our land. Can it be trde, that our oonatr,

our midst. Here, on this spot, when, but i
