WINN$fBORO. S. 0. Thursday, April 0, : : 1877. It. MEANS DAVIS, Editor, JNO. S. REYNOLDS, Associato Editor. Mr. Oikey Hill his turned up (h)all 0 K in England under an as - suinod name. The Now York Journal of Com, meroe of the 29th of March says: "The appointmierdt of ox-Governor Aiken, of South C trolina, as Collec tor of Customs at Charleston, and ex-Governor Porter, of South Caro lina, as United States District At tornoy for that State, will probably be made as soon as the gubornto rial contest is settled." Upon what authority the Journalof Commerce speaks, is not given ; but President Hayes could not perform a more graceful act of recognition towards the intelligence and proper ty of South Carolina than by making those appointments. The National Repbulican, of Washington, pays a high tribute to Judge Mackey in the following : Governor Hampton and the gen tlemen associated with him will leave Washington for South Carolina to night. Among those who have most prominently represented Oov ornor Hampton and his cause at the National Capital, Judge T. J. Mackey stands pre-elminen t. A republican, unalterably, in his political faith, and holding his alliance sacred with the National Republican party, as represented by President Hayes, as the necessary agent to lift his people up to a high er plane of civilization, he advocates Hampton and home rulo with a zeal and sagacity which have made the cause of Govei nor Hampton ia house hold word throughout the country. At Last ! The welcome tidings lmuvo been received that Mr. Hayes will at last take a decided step in the course mappod out in his inaugural. The troops are to be removed from the State House, and the manage ment of local afliirs in South Caro lina will be relegated to the people. No lunger will the tread of the sen try be heard in the corridors of the State Capitol, nor the statuo of Washington look down upon the destroyers of the constitutional liberty he fought to establish. And it may be stated also, with some degree of confidence, that no longer will the sable visages of the Cham berlain constabulary be se en in bas-relief against the granite walls. Chamberlain acknowledges that this move establishes Hampton, and it is possible that he will yield to the force of circumstances, and bow himself down and out. It may be confidently expected that at last the devil is dead, that p~olitical and social anarchy is no more, and that a new era of p~ros perity is at hand. South Carolina has passed through the deep waters, and now stands upon higher and firmer ground than ever before. Now that, with success assured, we can reason calmly, it seems, per haps, not unfortunate th~at the comn. p~lete fruition of our hopes was de layed until the heat of the campaign had subsided, and both the victors and the vanquished had been pro pared to accept it. There will be much more of forbearance on the on< hand and acquiescence on the othei now than there wvould have beer earlier. The material progress wil be surer, because more gradual. Th< flush of political victory wvould hav4 engendered reckless financial specur lation, by which a collapse wouk have been inevitable. Now, pru dence will be comiminglna with con fidence, and business ventures wil ho all of a legitimate nature. *Another thought presents itself The people should wear grcefull: the laurels they have wvon. Clemien ey was the crowning virtue of (1w 9 mar, and peace has her victoriei more renowned than war. Govern or Hampton has counseled modlera tion and guaranteed justice to all 4 He will perform his pledges to the letter. And all who respect him and desire the welfare of South Carolini will co-operato in the endeavor t< miakae u n cor notth niui;,,n ~ a fiction but of the poople, not of expediency but of right, not of par tisanship but of liberality. At the saine time the Democratic party, which was the instrumentality of achi 'ving reform, must be the vehicle of its perpetuation. Lot it continue in solid phalanx, opening only to receive fresh recruits. The day is not far distant when all, black as well as white, except only the thieves and scoundrels, will bless the day that made Wade Hampton the Governor of the whole people of South Carolina. The Order for the Removal of the Troops. WAR DEPARTMENT, WASHINGTON, D. C., April 3. General V. . Sherman. Com m'fding United States Army.

Editor: PreHuming that the newly elected town council is open to suggestions touching mlatters affecting the pub lie welfare, I bog through your columns to direct attention to the importance of having a more efficient police force. It is a notorious fact that the community generally is not satisfied with the present members of the police, inasmuch as their fitness and qualifications are sari ously questioned. That there are good grounds for dissatisfaction there can be no possible doubt, and it is to be hoped that the fact of its existence has aircady hoeon:e so apparent to our "city fathers" that they will not hesitate to act at the proper time in accordance with the generally expressed wishes of the citizens, namnely, that' the town should1 have better policemen than thosc now employed.
