Stralcor, the Jermuda MtIackeyite

'The SupjremIlle C2ourt will oni Frid hav
hea iii gmuenit in the gto wa'rranto
caso agati)st Buttz, the grouids y
being that he cntni1ot hold the oico,
of solicitor while ai member of Con..
gross. Shonld 3uttz, who'is a con
simtnato scotanidrol, be nwopt away
with the rest of the radieal rubbish,
it Wonld( be an additional cause of
rejoicing f )r Charleston. Justice, t
under Buttt, in the first circuit, has i
boen a synonym for injustico, while I
the solicitor himsolf has used his I
office for the promotion, rather than
the sUppres.ion, of fraud and criwo.
Lioutenant'-Governor Simpson
was absent from Columbia on Satur
day, leaving the Sonato a tie. Sey,
oi'al important meeasures caie up.
The Charleston Imiuicipal clcetion
bill passed only through the aid of
Cochran, of Anderson, while the bill
to'olect a judge for the fifth circuit fail
eI to p'ss, the vote standing si. teon
to sixteen. 1'his was very unfortus
nato. Colonel Simpson's friends
attribute the icidenit to the fact
that the Democratic Senators are
so uncertain that lie could not fore
tell that a casting vote would be
necessary. If this be true, it speaks
very badly for the Democratic
Senators. We regrot, howevor, that
the Lieutenant-Governor was ab- 1
sent. In the present crisis, his
place is always in the Senate. What
urgency there might have been for
his absence, We coo not kuow. We l
fool assured that his excuse was <
good, for up to this time Governor 1
Simpson has not made a mistake, I
and his firmness as presiding officer i
of the$enate has been the subject c
of idmiration.
The Duty of the Hour.
The Columbia Regiister has eOnl
tined two or1 three timely and capi
tal editorials in the past few (days
onf the' duty of the Demiocratic memiu

then fix unialterably the .policy
which, in their wisdom, seems best.
Demand, thep, that every member
of the party shall abstain the policy
grood upon, or let him take his
proper place in the ranks of our
Opponents. There can be and there
should be no middle ground. "Ho
who is not with us is against us,"
mnd the people will speedily realize
md act upon this fact. Wer must
Have unity, or we lose all. for which
we have CO nndudod. It is the duty
f the hour to maintain and submit
to party discipline, by which party
.nity Imny be p reservud.

anniult of time has been frittered
LwUVay in Special legislation for which
ho neces.sity existed. The proceed
nigs have been d(esult pry in their
iaturo. All this at i.,i's, as has been
tated, for want of unity,
tnd the longer the present
:ondition exists, the more seat
Orel the party will become.
L little heroic treatment should be
,iod. Those very members who,
ast year, hectored and abused all
vho diffei d with them a3 to the ofli
Icy of the straight-out movement,
hould now, in turn. be brought
lenselves back into the traces, and
nade to work there. This is not the
imo yet for the assertion of indi
ridual opinions. The majority must
-ule, and the minority must follow.
Jnity of nation is the duty of the

Vecsers Editors:
In your last issue apponlrod a
ard from Col. J. B. Davis, dotining
is position with reference to the
lcction which it is understood is to
)e held before a groat while for clerk
>f the court. Presuming that the
ubject matter thereof ii before the
)ublic for fair and legitimate criti..
iswu, I ask a small space in your
olumns, not for the purpose df
ittacking Colonel Davis' candidacy,
ut to express the utter inconsisten,
y of his present position as defined
)y himself, as well as to show the
allacy of the reasoning by which he
rivos at his cilusions. His in
onsistoncy lies in the attompt to
orostall the judgment of a norinat
ng convention of the party, it being
v'ell known that aL county conven
,ion will b)0 called to laleo in nomi
jation a suitable peciron for clerk.
t is equally well known that none
>ther than the nominee of this con
-ention will receive the support of
he Democratic party'. But Colonel
)avis a1SSmne1s to hold over as the
)Cmocrat ic1.e 1 oineO, bCcauiso two
enit.leen ass ,(eited w iith him Onl

'as competent for the committee to
ave nominated any other two gen -
lemen, had it beenu (homed best to
o so. Messrs Gaillard and( Brice
id not claim the nomination by(
irtue of the action of the conven-i
ion last summer, but allowed their
amios to go before the committee
ithout reference to their previous
~andidacy. The writer has a high
ersonal regard for Colonel Davis,
uit insists that his position as
nuncinted in the card referred to
a wholly untenable. If he aspires
o the omleo of clerk of cout, let
im nave his name submitted to a
ominating convention, in common
rith others, and I have no doubt
ut that it will receive due con
ideration.
