g The Radical Programme.
The policy of the Radical party in
South Carolina is to sccuro the Legislature,
and elect a majority of the Con~
h v gressmen from this State. That this is
their prograznmo is clearly indicat*
?' ed by everything that they do.
* Nor is it unreasonable that such
should bo their policy. They could
very well give up the State and
couotv offices, for the sako of getting
control of the Legislature, of Congress,
and possibly of the next president.
s- With a federal congress and executive
ready at a moment's notice to throttle
States, and a legislature of the character
of those that have already bankrupted
the State, the Radical forty
r-rtuld verv well afford to let the Demo
crats bar* the State and CouDtj officers.
Without a General Assembly resolved
upon advancing the interests of the
p State, Governor Hampton, with all of
I (his patriotism, wisdom and reaj administrative
ability, oonld do bat littlo for
the welfare of Sonth f arolina. The
work of reform woald be checked and
paralized, aod the condition of our peo*
pic rendered even worse than daring
the darkest days of the reconstruction
period. Bat the next Legislature will
have something else to do, besides supporting
or hampering the governor and
his subordinates. A successor in the
N United States Senate to Honest John
Patterson will have to be chosen next
winter ; and, just now, the loss
of one or two votes by the Republicans
would give the Democrats
control of the Senate. With the federal
Senate opposed to him, the President
would in a large measure be powerless
to put into execution many of his
views of public polio/. South Carolinaians
wish to be represented in the highest
deliberative body in the landby a man
of their own choice; and, to that end,
they will labor earnestly to secure
the next Legislature.
But, in the light of recent events, it
is possible that upon the lower house of
th? next Conerress, will devolvo the duty
Pof choosing a President of the United
States. And it is on this account thnt
both parties arc striving to get possession
of the next House of Representatives.
It is desired, of course, to have
a majority of the House, but the prin*
ciple object is to control the delegations
from a majority of the States. The importance
of a majority of the State delegations
is apparent when wc reflect, as
above stated, that it tnay fall to the
next House to elect a President in 1880.
In that event each State would have
one vote?the"State going according to
the msjority of its delegation. The
whole number of votes would be thirty
eight, of which twenty would be necessary
to a choice. -In the present Ilonsc
the Republicans have a majority of the
delegaioos from nineteen States, vis.:
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts,
Rhode Island, Pennsylvania,
New York, Ohio, South Carolina, Indiana,
Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, Nebraska,
Michigan, Minnesota, Kansas,
Nevada and Oregon: They claim that
they can bold those States, and gain
perhaps California and Colorado. Should
they succeed in securing twenty States,
and it is not improbable, the Republicans
may have the privilege of naming
the Presideut in 1880. even
though the Democrats might have a
majority of the members of tho House
of Representatives.
With all of there facta and possibili.
tits before ns, the seeming magnanimity
of the Radioals in not opposing ITamp.
ton's re.election is not surprising.
Selfishness is at the bottom of their
whole programme. Bj withdrawing all
opposition to our candidates for State
officers, they bope to lull us into a false
feeling of security, and when the time
tomes walk away with the lion's share of
the government. It remains for the Dem.
ocrats so say by tbeir actions whether
or not they will remain idle and allow
tbem to do this. With a Radical
Legislature, a Radical "Senate, a Radi.
cal House of "Representatives, find pos.
sibly a Radical President, we would
almost as soon, except for the name, not
lave Hampton for Governor. He could
do us no good. It follows, therefore
that Democrats everywhere, and parti*
cularly in South Carolina and Kershaw
County, must be up and doing while it
is yet time.

Till New York Evening Pott says:
"Mr. Peter Cooper has given up the
scheme of founding a college for women
in South Carolina. It is said that the
representations made to him concerning
the disposition of the State to forward
the scheme were not strictly founded on
facts."
Thk North Carolina State Convention
will meet in Raleigh in June for
! the purpose of nominating candidates
| for Chief Justice and Justices oftheSu
preme Court. The contest for the nominations
is lively and in some cases bitter,
but the people of the "Old North
Stale " always go with the party.
Many extreme Radicals want General
Grant nominated for Presidept in
1880. The ensanguined garment, and
the man on horseback with uplitted
sword?all backed up by much talk
about tho payment of "Rebel Claims,"
which in uinety-nioe cases out of a
hundred hare been made by Radicals
or Union men?will be the platform
from this time forth.
The following gentlemen compose the
committee appointed to investigate the
election frauds in Florida and Louisl
iana : Potter, of New York, Morrison,
of Illinois, Hunton, of Virginia, Stengcr,
1 of Pennsylvania, McMahon, of Ohio,
| Cobb, of Indiana. Rlackbnrn, of Kentucky,
Cox, of Ohio, Butler, of Massachusetts,
Reed, cf-Maine, and Hiscocl
of New York.
Radical politicians favored the investigation
of election fraudgiin New
York in 1868, beeauso it was charged
that they had been committed by Democrats.
But uow they shout as loud as
they can that the action of the Demo!
cratic House of Representatives, in ap|
pointing a committee to look into the
j rascality of their party in Florida and
Louisiana, is revolutionary. it is tneir
oz that is gored this time.
Wno will be elected U. P. Senator
to suoceed Honest John Patterson?
A score or more good Democrats i n the
State wonld like the best in the world
to get the place, hot before any of them
can socceed, the Democrats must have
control oftho Legislature, and that they
ocannot have unices a sufficient number
of members are elocted to give them a
majority on joint ballot. Jn other
words the Democrats must at all events
rurry'nll of the'doobtfnl counties in the
next election.
The next ftorth Carolina Legislature
will cboosc the successor in the U. S.
Senate to Judge Merrimon, who, it will
be remembered, was elected over Gov.
ornor Vance in 1873 by the fusion of
about a dozen Democrats with the Rad
ical?. The candidates are Vance and
Merrimon again, with the chances in
favor of the former. Judge Merrimon
! * annnd Democrat, and has made an
able and useful Senator, but the Democrats
of North Carolina seem to thinkthat
the office of II. S. Senator belongs
of right to Zeb. Vance.

ascended the scaffold and had the rope
put around his neck. A moment more
and he would have been in eternity.
The Mrdium says there is a diversity
of opinion as to tho prisoner's guilt,
though the evidence against him. which
is altogether circumstantial, is conclusive.
Tfie subject of deepening the channel
into Charleston harbor by the jetty
system, which hasworked so wonderfully
at the mouth of the Mississippi river, is
engaging the attention of Congress.
Senator Butler has been indefatigable
in his efforts to get an appropriation for
that purpose, and it is believed that the
necessary aid will be granted by the
genera) government. If successful the
? - j?a .ii i_
channel win oa given a oepui ui iwemgr
one feet, which would be of immense
commercial advantage to the city and
State.
It is reported that Governor Hampton
docs not favor the action of the House
of Representatives in reference toFlorida
and Louisiana. In his opinion "the
masses throughout the whole country
look upon it as a revolutionary proceeding"
And *'& conviction that it is
a revolutionary proceeding, looking to
the removal of Mr. Hayes, will do more
to make Gen. Grant president in 1880
than every other agency combined."
Rut if frauds were committed, as has
been alleged, it seems to us that the iotorests
of the whole country demand
that they should bo investigated and
ho guilty punished. Otherwise n
premium will be placed upon crime
hereafter.

Ben Taylor, a colored man living
in this place, has lately returned from
Washington, whither he has been to secure
a patent for a now steam engine
which he had invented, and which, it
the judgment of many experienced and
scicDti6c men to whom he has shown
his model is correst, is calculated to res
volutionize the present application of
steam. The engine is rotary, having
tha steam applied at the circumference
of a wheel, giving thu9 treble the force
of ordinary engines, with no distinguishing
of power at the various stages of the
revolution of the wheel. This invention
dispenses with all the machinery except
the one wheel, which answers at once
the purpose of cylinder and driving
wheel, and the two 8leam?boxcs through
which the steam is applied. It is esti
mated that engines on this plan can be
manufactured at one-fourth, or less, the
cost of those now in use, and their simplicity,
and the possibility of making
them of extremely light weight, will extend
the use of eteam engines beyond
the present limit. Ben. Taylor, the inventor,
is a sort of mechanical genius,
having befoie manifested an insight into
mechanics of no ordinary degree. His
invention, if nothing fails?and the
probabilities are in his favor?will rank
him among the first inventors of the
day.?Rottdah (Mitt.) Journal,
Primary Elections.
Mb. Editob.?As there has been already
so much said and written about the subjeet
which heads this article, it may seem
superfluous at this timo to add anything
more. But as our succeas at the pot's ia of
paramount importance, and uni'y and barmony
so essentially necessary to enable
one to secure that end, if you will bear
with me, I will give a thought or two.
with no other end in view, than that of
contributing mv mite toward harmonizincr
the conflicting opinionx thai now exist.
While I am free to confess that I have
been in favor of adopting the system, ?'More
mature deliberation" convinces me that we
had better wait, awhile, at least, before
adopting it. In fact, I regard it as unfortunate
that the question was sprung upon us
at this time, as the very question, as to
whether we will, or will not, adopt it,
is likely to produce more dissension and
feeling, than the operation of the system itself,
or conventions either would do. If wo
had, (as they linve in some of the upper
counties where the system hns been adopted,)
an undoubtod majority, so that the issue
would be between men based upon personal
influences, and prejudices, and not
upon a measure, the final and complete
overthrow of the radical party, in case it
would perhaps he wejl to mako the issue
before the general election. But in our caso,
knowing as we do that wc have q majority
to overcome and that it w:ll only he by dint
of hard work, and indomitnble persevcrnnco
that wc enn succeed in electing unr ticket,
which mutt be done, let whose nameimhat
will adorn or disgrace It. we onunot afford
to allow personal prejudices and influences
to be brought into play note.
And what great siu has our Conventions
be?ii guilty of that they should bo denounced
as they have beeu. Our State convention
gave us Hampton and Simpson and Conucr
Ac., now universally conceded to have been
as wi?a choosing as could possibly havohoen,
qnd yet who will undertake to say that at
that lime, -'primary eteciipns1' woujd jiave
dope ?oWell? tfcg, owii tJptfrty Bonvm|.
Ijyfl gave us tfffc lovely flgd eplfatpft Civ.
burn, the pure and noble McCaskill, and I
that inimitable warhorae, Jno. Burdell, and :
everybody was more than satisfied. Oar
Conventions may have been, as an editorial
in one of the county papers termed one of
them, "boisterous and unwieldy," overflowing
perhaps with an exuberance of
spirits of all torti; but they have not (as a
speaker recently said before one of our
clubs in referring to the convention of the
24th ulti) beer, composod of the "scum of
the country:" nnd we hold that the fruits of
our conventions have always been satisfactory.
By going to work two years ago upon
the plan taught ns by our enemies?that of
organisation, and holding out the idea that I
we must work together as a unit, we did
much ; we were lifted from the blackness
of the desolation we were in until the light
of a brighter nnd a better day has dawned
upon us. and if we but go os in the same
way lt will not be long before we will feel the
warmth of the genial sun of prosperity.
But do away with all that has been done,
ignore the plan of co-operative action, and
commit the work "pell mell" into the hands
of every man, nnd it will be but the beginning
of disintegration, demoralisation and
defeat: and, instead of moving as one solid
phalanx on to victory nnd complete success.
we will have a rolling, tumbling, confused
mass Party lines will hecome snapped.
and, instead of a thoroughly organized
party with its duly accr^ited standard
bearers, we will have a host of candidates
of this and of that faction, and instead of
victory we will sink back to such utter
depths of- degradation nnd ruin that our
case will be beyond hope. Already we see
the newspapers and bear hosts of individuals
complaining of the "pledge" required
in the primary voting, plainly showing that
if the work of making nominations is com
mitted into the bends or every man, ev?rjr
man will feel that he has a right to do it in
his own particular way, and the result is
plain. So far as the support of the nominees
ia concerned, I hare no fear that the
Democrats of Kershaw county will not do
as they hare already proren themselves in
that particular. What I do fear is, that in
case the system of primary election! is
adooted. no nominations will be made and
in the effort to make them so many old
heart burns and prejudices will be unearthed
that the very bone and sinew of our party
with its organization and complete harmony
will be sacrificed, and the work of
years snd the benefits we hare already secured
be -'scattered to the four winds of
heaven "
Let the nominations be made by a convention
composed of such material as the
rarions clubs can furnish, and them are
not 25 Demoorats in the county who would
not support them. Some of the counties
hare adopted the system. If it proves as
advantageous as is claimed for it. we can
take it up next time. Some of the connties
have not adopted it, which will necessitate
a convention for state officers : and, if
we have part by convention, let's bnve all.
Seeing, therefore, the dissension and feeling
that the mere discussion of the snbject
has produced, and fearing still more serious
rrsultsin consequence oftbe operation of the
system if adopted, I for one think we had
better drop it "for a while," at least until
we cross the river. We can then, if we
see proper and it is advisable, "swap
horses." Jtrvtxrs.
