THE BIAS! FROM CHAMBERLAIN.
Kvcu before the fourth of July word
had been L'ivcu out that that anniversary
Would be the occnsiou for an attack upon
the southern po icy of Mr. Ilayos, on
the part of ex-Governor Chamberlain |
and the disappointed Senator from
3Iairie. Those who wished no ill to the !
hue Governor of this State and who 1
gave him credit for sincerity in cxpressing
his sense of the tai.ure ot his admin
titration in a recent conversation with a
3i?w York Herald correspondent, were j
unwilling to believe that he could be '
guilty of the act of folly which he perpc- j
I rated at Woodstock. Conn, for the en-j
tertainmeni of the friends of Mr. 11. C. j
Bowen oo lnde|>endence da}'. By his
utterances on that occasion Mr. ChaiuberiarB
bus done himself no honor, but
oo the contrary has re-awakened public i
attention to the stains which attach to |
his record while filling high places of
trust in this State. From the beginning 1
to the end of his speech he betrayed without
attempt at concealment, the fret- j
111 ffUatKof of a disappointed political.
.tramp, and his reckless iuvectives against
President Hayes are the result of a calm
ami deliberately planned attack upon a
which he must be well aware conld |
?lewe?tve peace, tranquility and good
ordar w the State which events have
ehoww he was not the man to govern.
While occupying his time in denounoi.tnnfa

avoided attent ;>ring to sketch the other
aide of the picture, the "what might!
bave been." Ke was doubtless well
wire that he has too often during the
I** two jem e*pivs.Tcd bis inability to
eontrol the ' corrup t and destructive
elements wbieh snrrouoded him and
which would still hare bad full sway but j
for the happy revolution of last winter, J
*ad we one knows better .th?n he does, j
that in no other way eonld the State be 11
redeemed than by uprooting th e ignorant (
and depraved party at wh,>se head,
tmfortnnately for himself he otose to

MEXICO. '
I
The President replies to the critic/*ni 1
his Mexican policy with serene eon fi- ;
rience r ^ 0I1|y fa the uprightness of hi. * 1
^^jitiona, 1st in the wisdom of his i>o!i? j
r?/. The thought ef annexation never en-) 1
tired his bead. He would regard the j 1
addirio? if aiy part of Mexico to our i
national domain as a shocking calamity, i P
He is well aware that the country?' averse 1
to any such scheme of expansion doubting ?
it we have not already more territory than (
we cm conveniently take care of, and 1
feeling sure that a Mexican State at any t
U of all thines in the world, that t
IW?V| w w
which we moot emphatically do not want. I
Now that tnere is no longer a tempta- 1
tion to extend the area of slavery, all i
parties look with alarm upon the in- '*
corporation into our uuion of incongruous ?
populations, speaking a strange lauguage, t
ignorant of our political system trained to
habits which do not accord with ours, 1
and sprung from ainixture of races whose
character seems to be incompatible with
free RegMbticaa institutions. Gen.
Grant loeoifcd more than one mortifying
rebuff* when he attempted to dis- '
regard the fixed aversion of the people
of the United States to the acquisition \
of Spanish American territory. It does
not seem likely that tjris aversion will
over be overcome. Common sense tells
as that such additions to our confederacy
of Stamps would be an element of danger :
and disorder, without any compensating,
aUYtKKVgVtv
The ttarifeat is rivht in insisting:
upOo the protection of our frontier. The 1
tDCwnoits of 4* Mexican cattle thieves <
tw intolerable/ and the- Mexican Gov-I
fNimewt certainly cannot complain that 1
vebve been over-hasty in our resolutiou
to nnieilnfce the?doty of stopping them, 1
which Mexico ought to do but does not.
VH T?w Elect foe.
Throe- withl from next Monday the ;
oufrens sf Beanfort will be called upon to
tint imlMeadpot and six Wardens to
ecrvetbrfhl coming year. During the ,
past yeaf the k?w? has paiietf ail indebtedness
fcj rows ofTa heavy tax and the
amistaMB of the money from the Ilarvey !
Mills. "Hieimportance of a good muni'
cipai government is acknowledged by aft
and there has been much talfe of electing
*. j - * _k?
. a council compowa Ul UiVU wuu nuuiu |
represent to a further extent the ihtclli- ,
geuoe awf tep^m of the town. So far,
however, working definite has been djoe
bat to disown the case on the street
, * corners-and there is danger of the same
old oegleet of their interests by the eitiaens
and the election allowed to be con-,
trolled by the noisy horde tha; annua\
ly meats in* the Arsenal and allows a
ohairnian to pick ont the nominees according
to a Irit. of names previously
fhrnished him for the purpose.
There are many good ciiatens of Bcauf&rt
w.Ho hfure been spoken of for Intendhnfc
andr Wardens, but they in almost
every ease decline to-allow their names to
be used, partly from a pressure of business
aud partly from a d'sl ike to be cons
tKsUots for positions where their defeat
)
won!J result in the success of opponents
who they would be chagrined to have
triumph over them. A little more public
spirit manitested by our better classes,
would put our.town hi the hands of men
suited to manage its affairs and reduce
taxation to a necessary amount. It is
not ye* too late to make an effort and if'
the people will they can elect such a
tieket as will he a credit to us and ad- j
vauec the property of the town. We i
hope next week to be able to chronicle
some movement by the citizens toward a
better government.
Dtt. WHITE AS A CHAMPION.
I
As a champion Thomas f*. White M.
1)., Ks<|., cmtoot'be called a success, j
He has hm> ever since the election of
Judge Wiggin his moot loyal defender,
words flailing to express his admiration of
the wise choice of the Legislature. We
have now before-us sw? article written by
Dr. White which lie desired us to publish,
which we declined, in which he says:
"We are sorry to'sec so malicious and
abusive a spirit exhibited by the Barnwell
Democracy in their wholesale and
ncrsLstciu abuse of Judge Wiggin, and
of the readiness of the News and Courier
to publish every advertisement .squib
in the interest of ex-Judge Aldnch.
The object is too patent that these repeated
articles of .adulation of the exJudge
are written by some pal of his or
possibly under his dictation to influenoc
any one who already has their opinions
of both. Judge Wiggin is liked personally
by every one whatever may be his
political affiliations, and these vituperative
expressions towards him do hiiu
no harm ami will scarcely help ex-Judge
Aldrich to the circuit l?ench,"
In an article in the Mews and Courier
of Tuesday this same defender of the
J udgc says:
"It is to be hoped that the rotation of
the Judges, while it relieves us of an
utterly ignorant and incompetent Judge,
will in due time inspire a respect and'
restore a confidence in the bench which'
was felt while Judge Mahcr sat, and
which has been entirely lost during the
succession of W iggin in the circuit."
We are sorry to relate that this odious
Judge who could not be harmed by the
"vituperative expressions" of hisenemies
but who how is so unfitted for his duties,
had, in the course of his duty as Judge,
to decide a case against Dr. White, Ksq.,
last week. This may not account for
the sudden change of base of the Dr. bit
whenever, hereafter, he acts as champion
for any official the subject of his
adulations will have reason to believe
that his praise has its price.

He was received and entertained on
the 26th by Queen Victoria at Windsor
Palace, where, with Mrs. Grant, he
passed the night as the guest of the
Queen. At the Queen's dinner given
to him at Windsor Castle, the Earl and
Countess of Derby, Prince Christian and
the Princess Helena, Princess Beatrice,
Prince Leopold, the Duchesses of Well*
ngton and ltoxburghe, Gen. Badeau,
Lord EJphinstone, and others, were promt.
The next evening a State concert
vas given at Buckingham Palace,
?'en. Grant and Mrs. Grant, the Emicror
aud Empress of Brazil, the
h-ince and Princess of Wales, and other
listingushed guests, were present.
)n the 28th a banquet was given in
lonor of Gen. Graut by the civic authorities
of Liverpool. Upward of 200 genlemen,
including representatives of all
niblic bodies iu the town, attended the
banquet, which was lie Id in the large
oom of the Town Hall and is described i
is a brilliant affair. On the Fourth of
July, Minister Pierrepont gave a reccp:ion
at his residence exclusively to
\tnericans in London, whenJGcn. Grant
was present.

The New York Sun says that when
Horace Greeley found himself defeated he
determined to go back to the paper he
had founded, and so announced in a card
which appeared in the Jrilmic on the 7tb
[>f November, 1872. On the next morning,
the 8th, he read an article entitled
"Crumbs of Comfort," of the existenceof
which he was ignorant until he saw it in
the paper, and which he considered as
reflecting upon him personally. He immediately
wrote a disclaimer of the said
article and ordered it inserted in the
paper in the editorial columns. This
disclaimer, however, never appeared, and
though Mr. Greeley agnin and again or- )
dered it in, it was constantly suppressed by
theeditor actually in charge. lie then realiied,
for the first time, that he had been
deposed from the position he had all his
lifetime filled, and it is said that the
knowledge of this so mortified him, that
he left the- editorial rooms a broken
hearted man. He never returned, for
his mind soon gave way, and he was stricken
down with the illness from which he
never recovered. It is further stated
that for some days before his death he
was confined in ? private insane asylum,
and none' but his most intimate friends
were permitted to visit him.

The Louisiana Returning Board will
now have an opportunity to show wr what
ground they threw overbcxvrd the eight
thousand majority cast for Tilden in the
state and the vote given to Hayes. In
the Criminal Court in New Orleans last
Friday, the Attorney General filed infor
iiiation against J. Madison Wells, T. I'.
Anderson, Louis Kenner aod Gr
Casar.ave,,charging theuis under section
833 of revised statutes, with altering
and publishing as tru3 certain altered
false, forged and counterfeited records.
Immediately after filing-the information
capiases were issued for the arrest of the
parties named. Well's and Kenner surrendered
themselves to the- Sheriff.
The information is very lengthty, and
charges them with having on the 4th of
December, 1870, falsely and feloniously
altered and published us true the altered,
forged and counterfeited election returns
for|Presideutial electors from the parish
of Vernon at the election of November
last, by adding one hundred and fiftyeight
votes to each of Hayes electors, and
deducting three hundred and ninety-five |
from each of the Tilden electors. Rail
has been fixed at five thousand dollars j
each, and has been furnished by Wells'
and Ken nor.
The principal and almost only topic of
discussion in Washington is the Speaker- I
ship. It is understood that there is a .
movement in contemplation to effect a |
combination of the South and West on.
some candidate who will be acceptable to J
the administration. It is said on the i
authority of some of the members that
the President, while he has long since
given up any hope of electing a Republican
as Speaker, is still very anxious for
the election of a conservative Democrat
a supporter of .the electoral bill and an
anti-filibuster. The projected combination
above alluded to is designed to be on
this line, and anything in the way of
moral or other support, which the administration
can consistently lend to it
will be meat cheerfully afforded.

cause: "I was at the apex of my ambition
and this man rudely tore me from
my seat." What a fall was there, my
countrymeu! As for Gov. Nicholls, MrPinchback
said: "The colored people
of Louisiana to-day are as happy a race
as any under a Republican Government.
Gov. Nicholls has appointed colored men
to high offices of honor and emolument,
in politics and on school boards. One
great want is a good common school education.
When the little fellows now
sniffing the air ot liberty grow to be twenty
years older, there will be two parties
to play at bull-dozing. Political equality
is already being recognized in the south,
and I am afraid that we are going to
have an unanimous party in the south,
owing to the good sense and honesty of
Nicholls, our Chief Magistrate."
Harral, the slayer of Lieutenant Catesby
Jones, has been admitted to bail in
the sum of Si 5,000, and the friends of
the murdered man are very indignant.
He has engaged two of the best lawyers
in Sclma Ala., and set up the customary
plea of self-defense. Their children
had quarreled and had a pitch battle in
the streets, and young Jones, who was in
the wrong, had been sent to his playmate's
house with a basket of fruit and
an apology, but his overtures were
received with such bad grace that anoth
er boy's figfit was precipitated. Then
Lieutenant Jones went over to his neighbor's
house to remonstrate against such
vindictive behavior, and wa9 "hot down
at the door. Harral says that the Lieutenant
carried with him a huge stick,
and attempted to use it. Lieut Jones
asserted in h:s ante-mortem statement
that he had not thc$Jeast thought of
stirring up strife. It was ccrtaiuly a
strange fate that the gallant sailor who
commanded the Mcrrimac in her second
day's fight should be shot down like a
dog for playing the part of peacemaker
iu a child's quarrel.
In the days when the thieves were in
their glory in Columbia it was considered
one of the nicest and fattest berths in the
State to be appointed on an investigating
committee, as, if anything was wrong,
the members of the committc were al.
ways "seen" before a report was made.
The committee at present at work in
Columbia refuse to divulge any of the
frauds it is said they are uuearthing, and
the people begin to grow restive under
the surprise. The Journal of Commerce
of 3'estcrday says:
In the Confederate Congress secret
sessions were established chiefly by uien
originally opposed to secession and friendg
of Mr. Davis. They were used to cover
np his deficiencies and blunders. They
destroyed the power of the Press and of
public opinion. In effect they made Mr*
Davis supreme in Congress and absolute
throughout the South. Those who were
iudependent enough to oppose in the
secret counsel of the Congress such
measures as he desired, were marked dowu
and treated as enemies of the administration,
while they received no support from
the outside paHie. Those who in the
South, taking pains to obtain information,
expressed independent opinion as
to the course of the administration* were
looked upon by an uniuformed public as
hostile to the government and held to
act injuriously to the cause. So we tied
ourselves blindly to a man sufficiently
plausible, but devoid of sagacity, political
or military, and drifted with him into
ruin. But the Congress of the United
States sat in open session, with the light
? ? ?- mi r__. jtr
Of tfiC press W lliuunw lUi pruueeuiugs,
and thd power of public opinion to inform
and correct and assist its counsels. During
that great controversy the North got
all the benefits derived from a government
of the people in earnesfcr and the
South all the weakness of star-ehamber
incompetency,, above public opinion andf
dictating in public affairs.
We allude to these experiences and results,
fa view of the secret seseioas of the
Committee-of Investigation now sitting in
Columbia, We can- see do reason for this
secresy. The public want light on the
subject of the corruption and fraud
connected with the Public Printing
during the Ra<ficai regime of the last nine
years. They are not afraid of the truth.
They see no good object to be attained by
the suppression of evidence. They want
no whitewashing of Democrats so-called".
It is doe to the integrity and character of
the Democratic organization that all taint
of corruption be purged from its ranks. J
There is no' other way of keeping the
party pure and'compact and1 powerful, but
by exposing and eliminating all rottenness
discovered among its members. 1

was determined to carry out his instructions
and cross the Rio Grand in pursuit
of marauders. If he does and Diaz
does not recede from his position, it will
be impossible to prevent a clash between
the United States troops and the Mcxi

prove to be something more substantial
than simply a'newspaper contest.

ded to Pilate instead of Solomon. The i
opposing counsel, supposing he knew all
about it, instantly juLiped to ins leetanu
called bim a fool, and said that the order
was by Caesar and not Pilate. After a
heated discussion, they agreed to leave
it to the judge. His Honor decided that
both the attorneys were talking upon a
subject foreign to their knowledge, and,
pointing to the painting, said it was intended
to represent Herod, and not PSlate
or Caesar.
Trees that have long stems exposed (
to hot suns or drying winds, become
what gardeners call ,lhide-bound." i
That is', the old bark becomes indura- i
ted?enrmot expand, and the tree suffers
much in consequence. Such an evil is
Usually indicated by gray lichens which
feed on the decaying bark. In these
cases a washing of woak lye orlimewater
is very useful; indeed, where the bark is
healthy, it is beneficial to wash the
trees, as many eggs of insects are thereby '
destroyed. We would, however,
refer to linseed oil as a wash, As far
more effective for insects, and would perhaps,
do as well for moss and lichen.
