Political Harmony.
Wc published, last week, a letter written
by General Kershaw to a friend, giving
his views as the policy of the opposition
party in the State. This letter has been
copied by the whole Statu press. Republican
and Conservative, almost without exception,
and favorably received, as expressing
the sentiments of a patriot of known
wisdom, moderation, and gallantry. The
letter was remarkably mild in expression,
and contained nothing, so far as we could
see, to offend any person, whatever might
be his party, professions, or color.
Nevertheless, this gentle epistle has
fallen apparently like a bomb shell into
the camp of the politicians nf the UnionJ/ernld
ring, and has caused the wildest
consternation, which displays itself in
the bitterest abuse of Gen. Kershaw, and
the whole opposition. The editor and
correspondents of the Union-Jfrralil can
find nothing to say against the character
of General Kershaw, of course. and, for
lack of material, arc obliged to go hack to
the war and the period ol' Reconstruction,
front which they hsh up oiu una expioaeu
charges, their favorite stock in trade, and
serve them anew, with all the paraphernalia
of bombastic nonsense and reckless
falsehood.
The animus displayed about this letter
is really remarkable, ami calls for explanation.
Gen. Kershaw docs not offer himself
as a candidate for any of the offices, the
lovo of which is the life and soul of the
Republicanism, and interest in the colored
uian, of which certain politicians boast
themselves. If he did. their hostility might
be explained upon that theory. He only,
in a letter to a friend, expresses the opinion
that partisan hostility should be buried,
that all good men should combine to save
the State, and that full justice should bo
done to all classes of citizens. The officeholding
ring are afraid that their constiiuents
might be disposed to take h'?ui at his
word, and offer him political preferment,
knowing that such a course would be iiatu
ral. Hut it would also be the death of
their hopes, and must therefore be pre
vented by all available means. To maintain
their ascendency, it is necessary that
the colored people should mistrust and
hate the white people of the State. Had
lien. Kershaw advised the formation of
white leagues, intimidation of voters, forcible
resistance to the government, and
other violent and revolutionary acts, his
letter would have been kindly received,
and. no doubt, published as a campaign
document. But when he proposes to sink
everything 111 the good of the State and
tho welfare of its people, his motives are
misrepresented, the extended hand of
friendship is called the treacherous velvet
pair, previous utterances ofh is are thrown
into his face without any statement of the
circumstances which called them forth,
and nothing is omitted which can prcju
dice his friends against him.

Republican leaders in South Carolina.
They are bitter and n?roin^rumisimj enc_
inics ol" the good people of the State, as
ai! thieves are of those wlmut they plunder.
Friendly overtures exasperate them
more than the most outspoken hostility;
for how can a man rob those with whom
he ha^ once joined hands. JJufc yet, win n
their villany became so great arid intolerable
as to eon'ipe! an appeal to the National
government and the pub'tieopinion of the
country, the burden of their uong was that
the good people of the Mat? will not harmonize.
will not conciliate, and persist*
enil ivlus?- t' take any part in the gov.
ortiuu ut.
If none of our professions aro to he
believed, wo luiM be txco-ud ii we put no

now so loudly made. \\ e have heard the
same thing for the last six years, as each

A Proposition.
The letter of''Reform," in another column,
contains a proposition, by which the
vexed question, of how all discordant political
elements may be combined, may be
settled. The plan, is. that an e<jual representation
of white and colored men. from
each school district, meet in convention,
and nominate a ticket that ali can support.
This suggestion comes from one who is no
politician by profession, and no office
seeker, but an intelligenCcitizcn, who has
been thinking over schemes for taking
the government from the hands of'"rings,"
whether state, county, or precinct. We
arc always glad to afford the people an
.opportunity of speaking through our columns.
Genera! Kerslum for Governor.
The Greenville Enterprise and Mountaineer
has the following : " We have
very little doubt but that Gen. Kershaw
can be elected to Congress from the 4th
District; but if the colored people of the
Republican part)*, who arc clamorous for
reform, are sincere and honest, and arc
willing to accept a gentleman for Governor
who will do justico to all honest
men in the distribution of his patronage,
and who will sweep out the thieves, they
can put themselves right before the Federal
Administration and before the couni
trv at lartre. bv electinir Gen. Kershaw
* * J 0-7 ^ w
Governor of the State of South Carolina."
The Lexington Dispatch says: "It is
stated that Gen. J. 13. Kershaw will be a
candidate for Congress from the 4th Congressional
District. We would prefer to
have him as a candidate for Governor.?
A better man could not be found in the
State, nor one who would be more capable
of performing tho duties of the office.?
We will stand by Gen. Kershaw ever}
time."
Tho Kirtgo Springs IHJIit-uifj-.
In the early part of last week there
were grave apprehensions of serious troubles
at Kidge Springs, in Kdgefield County,
on the line of the Charlotte, Columbia
and Augusta Kailroad. A diffieulty oc?
jcurrcd between a white and a colored
man in reference to some business settle'
mcnt. This quarrel was taken up by the
blacks generally, who armed themselves,
and assembled in largo numbers, apaparcntly
intent upon a fight. The whites
prepared to defend themselves, and sent
to Columbia and Augusta for arms and
ammunition. Quite a uuuiberof Geor
gians came over from Augusta to assist
their friends at Ridge Springs, and for a
day or two a little war cloud threatened.
But finally prudent and wi^o counsels
prevailed, and peace was rctorjd. One ot
the ringleaders has been arrested, and, no
doubt, Judge Carpenter will give him the
; benefit of the law, when ho next hold?
Court at Edgefield. We are happily lice
from such disturbances in Kershaw, and
i
: the effort of all should be to preserve our
j present friendly relations.
The cause and motives of tHese difficulties
and the duty of law-abiding citi_
zeiiB, when they arise, arc forcibly stated
by the Charleston A* <rS and Cvurtrr, in
the following article, which we copy entire:
Following swiftly upon the heels oi the
Georgetown riot, in which only negroes
are engaged, comes the tidings of a disturbance
in Edgefield County, in this
State, in which the blacks are the aggressors.
A strong detachment of whites was
instantly sent from Augusta to Ridge
Springs, and any force that may be re(juired
to lvstore pcaco will be promptly

j an innocent and outraged people, do we
thank the gallant Georgiaua, those men
joi'brave deeds and lew words, who tell us
: that we can counton themto help us in any
1 and every emergency. They mean it, and
we know that tlicy mean it, and the magic
touch of the elbow will have its effect
?n?>t in encouraging disorder, not in encouraging
bloodshed, but in securing trail
juillity to the Mate.
There is some reason to fear that the
jSouthern Radicals, lirst in warlike talk
and last to face the flashing of the guns,
are bent on egging on the negroes, their
dupes, to conduct whi .h is likely to lead
to collisions with tlio whites. The object
, is to check the rising lide of Conservatism,
and to secure to the Republican party at
least those Southern Stales which they
; uow control. A military government,
j composed of I nited States officers of high
rank, would be inliuitcly more acceptable

amplo, tlun the rule of a Chamberlain or
| a .Mom-s; but this could hardly be the result
ol'a race conflict, which would probably
cause tlie I'nitod States forces to Inarrayed
on the side of the State author:
ties; who, so strengthened, would continue,
without let or hindrance, their spuli
ation and tyranny. We cannot afford,
therefore, to play into the hands of the
white lladieals by rushing into a fight
' where a tight can. by any honorable
means, be avoided; nor should we \ i.?it
on the heads ol the rank ami lile of the
negroes, the responsibility for what is, in
truth, the wilful and deliberate wrong
i doing of their concealed leaders. It seems
to us that the proper com -o to pursue is
i this: The largest toleration and greatest
i moderation should be practiced in deal-tig
J with the negroes, and. under no circumstances.
Should the whites strike tho tirst
blow; but when the blacks, despite pru
dent reserve and patient remonstrance.
I commit an unmistakable act of violence,
; towards man or woman, they should be
[promptly and sharply punished, and the
T'Vyrr'^'^'iV" ii'iHi^BTTiBWnffTiBB?f
effort should be made to cause full punishment
to fall on those who. whether
present or absent, are known to be the
directors of the neuroes in whatever unlawful
thiiif; the) do. There arc half-adozen
liieu in each county who arc at
the bottom of every act of violence which
the negroes, as a body, attempt to commit.
They arc the men who hold office and
pocket money, and upon their heads, relentlessly
but without vindictivencss, must
and shall bo put the responsibility for
every drop of blood, of white man or of
black, that, through their action or inaction.
shall be shed iu the South.
Peace, honor, prosperity ! That is what
we seek; and Peace, first of all. Carolinians
are men, who have wives and children
to defend; and when they are struck,
they strike back, and strike hard.
FOR THE JOURNAL.
Messrs. Editors: Our County is now
quite excited about the approaching elections,
especially the colored people, and
though not a politician in the least, I have
talked some with a few of the leading
colored men around uic, and am led to
believe, that if the proper plan is pursued
the two parties can be brought together
for the mutual benefit of both. The plan
I wish to propose is this: Let a convention
be called to meet in Camden, composed
of two white and two colored delegates
from each of the twelve School
Districts, which would givo forty eight
members in the convention. Let this
convention nominate a ticket for the State
and County officers of an equal number
of white and colored persons, said nominees
to be the choice of both parties,
our white delegates pledging the conservative
party to respect and guarantee the
rights of the colored people, and likewise
the colored delegates pledging their party
to respect the rights of the conservatives.
1 believe, Messrs. Editors, that this can
be done, if the proper efforts arc made by
our leading men. This is my plan, and I
hope you, who are so much more competent
to do so, will lay it before your readers
in such a manner as to call out some
of our honored leaders. Reform.

K?Ne Hall and " Jack Sprat.*'
At a meeting of the Kershaw Base Ball
Club, it was
Ucfohrd, That a Committee be appoin
ted to prepare a suitable reply to a communication
in a recent number of the
CamJm Journal.
i The following is the accepted report:
) Messrs. Editors: We were much
I surprised to see in the usually eonserva!
tivc columns of your valuable paper, a
: fierce, and, with due respect to the auithor,
one "Jack Sprat," whoever he may
| be, a most unjust attack upon what we
i consider the healthy, manly, and most re
j spectablc game of "base ball," just at this
i time so much in vogue among our people,
I affording, wo claim, and defy proof to the
! contrary, healthy exercise to the young
,! men engaged in -it, and an attractive
,! amusement to all of our people, the old
J and young, men, women, and children.
wives, mothers, daughters and sisters, who
.: give the sanction of their presence ; and
jour clergymen take an interest in and api
prove all that is done upon the ground.
One would suppose that such a match,
as was played between the "Kershaw"
and "Cauiden" Base Ball Clubs, a lew days
I ago, was such a scene of riot and debauchery
n? could only be witnessed at a prize
I tight between "plugs" in the neighborhood
I of some Northern city, where the men
! were "beastly roughs" and the women
' their lit associates. This would seem so,
when the word "despicable" is so evident
ly implied.
Now, Messrs. Editors, what was the
true coudition of things. You, we know,
were present, and one of you hold the position
of "Empire," and can testify?was
i there an oath, was there a ribald exprcs

water, on the ground, did you, or any one
else see or hear 3 single v.ord, look, or
act. that would warrant the reflection cast
by the aforesaid "Jack Sprat." or that the
j most innocent could not have listened to
I without a blush ?
I
It seems scarcely worth while to enter
into an argument against so wanton an
attack upon the amusement of a whole
: community?in that community?but
1 since you have given if the sanction of
your columns, wo feel ourselves bound, as
representing this Club, and in the name
|of this Club, and every member of it, to
I protest against charges so utterly without
] foundation, and which betray, upon the
part of the writer, a complete ignorance
i of the manner in which the game is conducted
among us. and the character of
. r>
j the gentlemen who compose the Clubs, and
j that of the ladies and gentlemen who parjticipntc
in the pleasuro afforded by the
! pauic, as well.
Wo as-oire ".lack Sprat," as he calls
j himself, that if he is always willing that
everything lie dues, shall he dune in the
| presence of the women he respects, he
need not hunt up one to advice with
j anumg the ' Spirit Hoppers," (<|tiesli"iiu
| hlo company at hcl.) and moreover, wlm
know just as mm-h about I!a e Hall and
the men who play it, in this community,
; as he docs?no more, no les>. And we
would advise him to cut the companion:
slup without delay, for we are inclined to i
{believe tbatthey aie of the Pc-vil, and1
j have known good men trained into evil
ways, by consorting with them ; and are
I tempted to explain the hJiucinatioii un-i
der which he seems to labor in this particular
matter, to the bedoviluicut of the
Siren he seems so much taken up with.
Saul made but a poor out of it with the
Witch of Kudor. So, Sprat, look sharp, or
you will get into some bog, ami never find
your way out.

Horrible Tragedy.
Correspondence of the Charleston Sun.
Augusta, August 10.
Yesterday ovc?ing about seven o'clock,
a diabolical deed was perpetrated in this
city, which has aroused the indignation
of our people. The fiendish act plainly
shows to what degree of barbarism the
negro of the South bus degenerated, and
what the whites may look for as long as
they are shielded in their villainy by the
strong arm of the law. It seems that
while Capt. Butler, thcagent of the South
Carolina Railroad, accompanied by his
wife and child were endeavoring to descend
from car No. 15, at the corner of
Broad and Marbury streets, they were
prevented from doing so by a mulatto
named Gabriel Murrel, who blockaded
the steps. Capt. Butler then pushed
Murrel one side and extended his hand
f/* lt?o Iinlrv* Iiav n tvlinn slip

was violently pushed by Michael Murrcl,
a brother of Gabriel. Gabriel then drew
a pistol and discharged it at Capt Butler,
the ball entering at the left temple and
lodging in the brain. Captain Butler fell
and in a few seconds was bathed in his
blood The frantic calls of his agoni/.eu
wife drew several gentlemen to the spot,
who rendered all assistance in their power,
and conveyed the dying man to his
residence at the corner of Greene and
Marbury streets, where lie received inu
mediate medical attention from l)rs.
Campbell, Ford, DeSaussurc, Eve and
other prominent gentlemen of the fraternity.
THE MURDKKEK AT HAY,
As soon as Murrcl had committed the
deed he dropped his pistol, turned and
fled, but was met by Policeman Tiriley.
who ordered him to halt. Paying no attention
to the command. Tinlcy fired at
him, the hall grazing his lips. Finding
that there were more pistols than one in ,
the neighborhood, tlto ruffian turned, and j
! while muttering some insolence pretend" d
j to draw a weapon, hut. discovering that i
I the pistol of Tinlcy was pointed at his
1 breast, quickly threw up his arms ami

I here, however, for a crowd of ncgriv - so.m
gathered, but in their attempt to ;? . .e

seized by another policeman, caused the

to terms. They were taken to jail, when
