JMBflaCBBWTd ."ITT Z~, :Z7 J We regret to note that a portion of the Democratic press, in anticipation of mi adverse decision, are already beginning to agitate in favor of evading it and refusing to submit to it in good faith as the final arbitrament which it was designed to be. CuudiJ and fair-minded people of both parties will not forgei that when the Compromise measure was first suggested the Democrats supported it with even greater unanimity than the Republicans. Hewitt. Tilden's chief manager, gave it his cordial assent. While Morton, Sargent, Sherman, Blahs and Garfield opposed it, no Democrat in.Congress of corresponding standing and influence joined in that op position. Uuder these circumstances the Democrats cannot refuse acquiescence in the decision without justly incurring the charge of treachery and dishonorable dealing. We trust that there is no truth in the current report that they are i ow contemplating a filibustering line of tac ? * J-I-- .L. __ tics designed to aeray me settlement ui the issue so that the President can be declared elected prior to the 4th of March. An extra session of Congress may be considered certain. The Senate will le convened in order to pass upon the appointments to be made by the new President The delay in legislation, caused by the counting of the electoral vote, will probably prevent the passage of the appropriation bills at the present session. It is $lso represented that the Democratic tftajority in the next Honse is so small that the members of that party prefer to secure the organization at once, and decide enough of the contested seats from Louisiana, Florida and South Carolina tqgrire the party a good working majority. According to the roll made by the Clark of the present House the Democrats have only four majority, and as Mr. Hill goes to the Senate ou the tourth ol March, and his sui-ces<or will not be elected until some tiuie afterwards, the vacancy thus created would reduce the majority to three. If Mr. Stephens should be ill and unable to take his scat, another vote would be taken off, reducing the majority to two. But a certain majority of two will give the Democrats control oi the organization aod power to determine the contested eases from South Carolina Louisiana and Florida* In Florida I*ur man will certainly an j Bisbf.e probably b? ousted. In Louisiana the Democrat; will get two Congressmen, and in thi? State one, which would make theii majority twelve instead of two. But il there is no extra session, and the New Hamshire election should go Republicar in April, the House when it meets ic December would have only one majority f*>r the Democrats and the defection, illness or absence of one man would give the Bepublicans control of the orgaoiza tion. The Grand Jury very appropriately called our alms house a loathsome plac< and its condition and management full) justifies the charge. This so-called honi< for the poor is a reproach to the county and a prompt and thorough investiga tion into the details of its management should be made at once. Cleanliness if not inseperable from a poor house, or wholesome well cooked food however plain Oue of the most objectionable features oi ^ the place is the indiscriminate crowding together of the sick and well to the in jury and discomfort of both. A hospita department should he furnished for the sick with a competent nurse and wholsonx suitable food. This part of the subjec requires a careful and immediate cons;d eration. The poor creatures whose pov erty and helplessness consign them to the pool house have a just claim upon oui sympathy, aud attention to their actua need and comfort. We hope the County wkneo r?mvinr?.p it is tf VUUIUUOIUlu&ig nuwv .. look after these matters will lose no tinn in bringing about a speedy reform. The report of the committee appointed to investigate the recent election it this State contains considerable mattei that would interest the readers of Tin Thibuni but which our limited spact prevents our giving in foil. We cannot refrain however from pub lishing the following Congressional encon ium upon our townsman. Iu shaking of violence offered democratic votes at Grey's Hill the report says: 14 It is attempted by the minority to show that the occasion of the assault upon Mr, Por teous was the distribution by him o1 democratic tickets, bearing the devices ol the Republican ticket. The only witness to sustain this is one F. D. J. Jiawrence, eolored of Beaufort, whose personnel and method as a witness gives little weight to his credibility. 44 Of Hon. Thos. E. Miller the report says, 44 his occupation was that of a painter, in which he had been engaged for four years. " This may be a clerical error arising from the word * * ?* *?2?? **a?\ incfno/1 A( painter oesu^ w rmvu iuowuu v* " planter *' or it may be a satirical reference to Mr. Miller's job of white-washing Solicitor Butts last winter. Congressman Smalls is delicately rcminded that ''his "attempt to account for the enormous Republican vote cast this year in Beaufort County by saying th >t it was but little n o:*e thun the vote of I x70 is not calculated to be. or h'.s cau.>e j i as the purity ot the ballot boxes and the i uofficeis who controlled thetu were the < subjects of more than suspicion at that time." So that saying this elect ion was i as fair as that one is not saying much in j; favor of cither. j; ( The El eetoral commission on Friday;; j la>t adopted a resolution that the bal| lots cast tor Odell, Cartwright and Watts | were the lawful eli/c'ioral votes of the ; State of Oregon, and should be counted ! for Hayes and Wheeler. The vote stood eight yeas to seven nays. 'iv ji .. o i n i:? I un luesuay ouuin ^aronna was uuuuted for Hayes aud Wheeler by the sauie ' vote?ei^rlit to seven. As there are no : inure disputed electors the agony now is , over unless the Democrats oan rally I; enough opposing members to prevent i the vote being declared. ( * < Th?? correspondent of the News and Courier explains why we can get no dc- j cission from the Supreme Court on the | ( question as to who is Governor as follows: Since the adjournment of the Supreme Court on Friday, Judge Wright has ( been an object of most tender solicitude and jealous regard with all the leaders of! the Republican party. He has not leen left unguarded or scarcely alone for one hour, by day, or night; nor lias he been allowed to suffer for want of any manner, or amount, of refreshment which might be supposed to clear, to clog, bis judicial faculties. Politicians of his own color , have beset him, and dined liirn and wined him, at home and abroad, without regard to expense. Elliott, it is said, cursed Lis to his face on Friday night, wheu it was commonly understood that he would favor Hampton. He has been made the subject of special prayer in the colored church of which he is a member and his brethren have wrestled with him in the spirit and iti the flesh. Bowen and Worthington came in hot haste from Charleston to woo him. Hayne and Den nis and all the other good angels of the party have attended him, anticipating his slightest wish. I cannot, indeed, give any adequate idea of the open and persistent manner in which all these and others have labored 4o prevail on this Solon, upon whom their destiny depends 1 LE1TER FROM FLORIDA. [From Our Own Correspondent.] "Dk Land" ) Berksford P. 0., > Volusia Co., Fla., Feb. 24,187<\ J Editor 1 ribnne and Commercial: As staid, old antiquated Beaufort :s well represented at this fine and lusty little town, perhaps a few items may be of' I some iuterest to your uumerous readers, regarding its rapid growth aud progress. When some of your fellow townsmen, with perhaps a well grounded apprehen|. sion of amassing wealth too rapidly in your busy marts of trade and commerce, of manufactures and the arts, came here to seek "rural fields and pastures new'' and so escape that "root of all evil" the pleasant bane of the unsophisticated, this J region for miles about was almost an unbroken wilderness of gigantic pines, with r here and there only a "do now" (log cab r in) as the native "crackers" call them ( and a few acres of clearing for corn and ( sweet potatoes. Now how changed the , scene and marvellous it is, in the eyes of the Ancient Floridians, who have been , hibernating here for generation?. Homesteads have been taken up, farms purchased, lands cleared and fenced, neat and commodious cottages erected, imrni gratlon from the bone and sinew of the i land, farmers, mechanics, artisans, laborr ers; educated, industrious, thrifty and . virtuous, has largely increased the number of our inhabitants until one can - "hoof it" as the colored people exprcst sively say, but a short distance, without 5 seeing the landscape here, there, and eveworKoro over with nloasant hcnies, thrifty looking clearings and p smiling groves of the lucious Florida orr ange, (than which, there is none better . in the world) fit to brew uectar for ;he 1 gods. i The impetus for this vast and wooder; ful progress, is mainly due to one person, t Mr. H. A. Do Land, widely and favorably known all over the country, as proprietor . of the cclebra'ed "Fairport Chetuical ? Works," N. Y. lie is ably aided and r cordially abetted iu his praiseworthy and j public spirited design to make this a far vorite place of resort and of residence, by > the Beaufortonians aud many others, so . that in the short space of a few months, two barge and imposing boarding houses are in the process of completion, to be . presided over by genial hosts of culture , and refinement. A stylish and commodir ous school house is also nearly finished, > capable of seating some 150, a large store, , mechanics' and other houses are being rapidly built, beautiful orange groves are being planted in every direction, and if . wc cannot absolutely say that the wilderr ness blossoms as the rose, wecau say that a heightened charm is given to it, by the j r.n?,hnrW? nnre. white blossoms of the ! . orange. Mr. DcLand is a live man, of that I thousand-horse power?go-aheadativcf ness, that never knows the word ' fail," ; and has forever expunged it from his dictionary. This with his wealth and his generous liberality to use it freely, lavishing; ly if necessary, for the highest benefit and improvement of this town and locality, j will inevitably give it such prestige and 1 favor with the public as cannot but in-j sure its rapid and early prosperity. Rev. Mr. Leet in his earnest christian ; ' benevolence has left his northern home , j and large and devoted congregation to joiu his lot to ours. In a few days the j day school and Sunday scnool will be commenced, with capable and efficient ' teachers, where visitors, residents and their families may have the full benefits of both and of church services, which ' hitherto conducted iu a beautiful i iue 1 ijrove, will n.?\v Oo held every Sunday in c [he pretty rural school house, presided c aver by a faithful and earnest pastor. t My letter is already too lone. In my i 1 next I will give you some of the many \ i advantages of- the place; that if any of I ^our impecunious subscribers and fellow 1 ' i-itizcns, (and their name is legion, I fear) j are in haste for health, wealth, and pie-1 thoric pockets, they may kuow just whe.e i to ouic. ; 1 \ T? S ii j We suggest to the citizens of Beau- J; fort who propose to petition the General i < Assembly to create a new County Uiat they might fiud a name of more local and historical value than that of Palmetto. The name of Yemassee would be peculiarly appropriate, and serve as a monument to a powerful tribe of Indians now extinct, whose exploits burn in the pages of the early history of Carolina. Other Indian names equally melodious and rich 1 in associations can be found. If, on the ether hand, it is desired to have a mod- 1 em name, one connected with the present history of the State, what better name can be found than that of Hampton, a < name dearer to Carolina than ever were the Colletons, the Berkeleys and the Ashleys of our Provincial history??News and Courier. ; A correspondent to the New York Sun , who has visited Gov. Ilayes says : 41 I found Gov. Hayes alone in the large plain Gubernatorial room. He came over to the fireplace, and took my hand cordially , as he takes the hand of every one, from the one-legged soldier from the Soldiers' Home to Bishop \\ ilmcr of Louisana. The Governor was dressed in a plain black suit, frock coat, high vest, and Byron collar?as simply as any gentleman could dress. His lace has the old war brown, but it is rosy with health. did not know. It had listened to the lying tongues of Democratic office-seekers. It believed that northern sentiment had no fight in it; that Northern loyalty was not more sincere than that of Democratic politicians, that "Northern shopkeepers'' and Northern "mudsills"' would protest a little but fight not at all. It had faith in the solemn pledges of men like Pierce and Eaton; faith in the declarations of men like Buchanan andTildcn; and trusted that Democratio resistance at the North would make secession easy, peaceful and safe. The fatal step was taken. Half a million of men were doomed to death by the trickery of Northern Copperheads, who promised to strike but only dared to hiss. Thus the war came. The South with high courage and with noble trust took the lead, risked everything, and expected the Northern Democrat to insure success in the struggle which he had prompted. The fall of Foit Suuiter brought a revelation. Northern loyalty and Northern convictions startled the world by their uprising. Copperheads hunted their holes. Pledges of aid to the South were forgotten in schemes for personal advan- ! tage or safety. The tricky Democratic : leaders had not only slandered the Re- ' publicans of the North, but, as it proved, j. tVy had lied about the Democratic mass- ] Not a wrinkle, not a care lurks tnere. His blue eyes have both an inquiring and a confiding look. His beard is untrained, as if it had grown in the camps, some few hairs in his moustache evidently attempting to straggle out of line. He looks like a man of forty though his age is fifty-four. Some of Gov. Hayes' peculiari ties are these : Perfect mental tranquillity, perfect physical health, and a clear con" science. He is modest, courteous, absolutely temperate, sympathetic as a child, but as firm as the rocks of Gib ralter when justice tells him the time has come to say yes or no. Religiously Gov. Hayes is a Methodist but unlike his pious wife, he is not a communicant. He bo. licves in and attends regularly the Methodist Church. He does not smoke, can't play cards, aud never owned a fast horse never was a member of a Returning Board nor" never lived in Brooklyn. I thought as I left Gov. Hayes that this is the man who will surely finish the work begun by Lincoln?this is the man who will bring peace to a struggling Republic. " KEMESIS, [From the 2*. Y. Tribune.] Slow-footed, tardy, blind, but terribly sure. Justice at last lays its heavy baud on the Democracy of the North. From I860 to 1877 is a long chase. But memories are yet longer, when sealed with blood. Perhaps the Northern Democrat fancied that the South had forgotten. But graves last longer than monuments; the South can forget thing else sooner than it forgets its ootu. Who sent * - * .1 i p them down to deatn, tne Drove sons 01 the erriug South? The Northern Demo c fit. His fawning treachery to the convictions of the Northern people, his assurance that Northern men had no prin ciples because he had none, his encouragement to threats of disunion, his pledge that Northern streets would run with blood before an army should go South to defend the flag?these were the causes of the war. Greedy seekers for office at the North were willing enough to endanger the Republic, willing enuugli to entrap brave men at the Sooth in treasonable schemes, in the belief that commercial timidity would turn the scale, that Southern threats would stupify Northern consciences, that Democracy would still prevail, and fat offices be given to hungry Democrats. Ilad the South dreamed in 18G0, that every Northern State would be found standing in defense of the Union a* firmly as the everlasting hills, had the South comprehended the depth of Northern convictions, or the intensity of Northem attachment to the Uuioo, not a single man would have gone down to death iu a war for secession. But the South is, who sen: many thoa.-arul leave . ol-; liers to the field. And thin it was that ' he cheated South, disgusted, maddened >y the treachery of pretended friends, set tself with stern resolve to break away forever from a Union with allies so unworthy and so ba^c. The day of retribution has come. ; Northern Democracy named as candidates j it St. Lou's two of the very men whose j heresies had caused the war. The South, j not vet able to see that its alliance with 1 Northern Democracy was surely fatal, ! gave an overwhelming support to those | candidates. The contest came, and again the Northern Democrat tried to win office and plunder by threatening civil war. Then Southern eyes were opened. Mr. Reagan, Postmaster-General of the late Confederacy, suggested that the South would bring up the reserve this time. Mr. Hill contemptuously observed that Mr. Tilden's friends.had little conception ' of the conservative influence of fifteeninch shell, with the fuse in process of combustion. The Electoral Bill was passed, largely by Southern votes. It would have pleased many northern Democrats to defeat it, but they did not dare. The decision in the Florida case was in favor of the Republicans, and at once Northern Democrats proposed to repudiate a compact they hud accepted. Then came the contemptuous reply from Southern leaders in Democratic caucus: *lYou, possibly, are capable of this knavery; we are uot." Three times during this month Democrats have been assembled in caucus, at the desire of Tildcn and his friends, and men like Randall and Spring-, er; three times the attempt has been made to commit that party to political scoundrelism by repudiations of its agreements. But every time the scheme has been defeated by the unspeakable cootempt of Southern Democrats for the dishonest and revolutionary tricks of their Northern allies. Put into words, the votes of Southern members in caucus would read thus: "You lied to us in 1860, and cheated us in 1861, and our fathers, brothers and sons lie in graves which your broken pledges opened. Begin the next revolution yomselves. Not by our codscnt shall lasting disgrace be added to defeat." The South remembers. Never agaiu will Southern men be used as catsj aws by greedy, office seekiug tricksters of the Northern Democracy. So 1861 is avenged; 1867 squares the account: and Northern Democracy sits down in the shadow of a most humiliating defeat. And now the defeated South erners stamp out the new rebellion which Northern Democrats, maddened by greed are impatient to begin. Will uot the South see at last that alliance with Northern Democrats has cost it quite enough? Will it not at last seek the influenee in public affairs* which it may rightfully exert, no longer through alliance with tho.-e who eheatod the outh into war in 1861, but with the conscience and brain and sturdy manhood of the North? It is for Southern uieoift say Their great service to the causiof ^ca<r and good government, rendered within the last month, justifies a hope. But in any case the Northern Depiocr.it has his reward. lie sowed dishonor in 1861, and reaped dishonor in 1S77.
