THE NEWS AND 11IRALT) extends hearty congratula tionm and best wishos. Sam Lee's Slanders. General Hagood, by request of Governor Hampton, has given a de tailed and succinct account of the dis turbance that took place in Sumter on Hampton's Day, and effectually dis poses of Sam Lee's tale which so arous ed the virtuous indignation of lIayes and Devens. The riot can in no way be brought within the purview of the tiotorious Section 5620. In the morn lug the ladicals and the Democrats held meetings nearly a quarter of a mile apart, and neither party inter fered with the other. After both meetings had adjourned a large num ber of individuals of both races hap pented to meet in the town, and hlere an altercation occurred between a hoary-headed old Rladlical, namcd Coghlan, and a number of young men. Although matters looked serious for a wvhile, tile moderation of General Hagood, Superintendent Thompson and other Democratic leaders, i nflu enced the whites and prevented a collision. But onme peCrson was in jured, a negro who resisted arrest by the police for disorder. T1heo whole disturbance was just such a one as arises periodically in all portions of the United States during times of excite ment. If tihe peop)le of the North wish to hear the truth they can read Gener al Hlagood's statement, and the letter of General Kennedy to Congressman Blackburn, witht profit to themselves. If they are still determined to wave the bloody shirt, no amount of truth will convince themn. Devens is turn ig the same old1 crank that ground out outrages for is p)redecessors, Williams and Taft, while the material ho has to work upon is still more Iimlny thapi theirs. .Mistaken Mercy. The solo cause of the present p)oliti eal troubles in South Carolina and tihe slanders of the Northern press arises from misplaced clemency on the p)art of the D)emnoeratic administratIon of our Stato. When the p)ublic archives wereo overhauled, evidence was pro cured to cbnviet every Rladlical who had been in office, from Patterson down to the corn field legislators. The peole expected to see these crimninals sent head-long into the penitentiary. had this policy been p)ursuled, every ladical that is nowv running or writ ing North and inflaming the minds of the people of that section against uts, would have beeni removed from publie gaze, and, attired in a striped suit, would be earning an honest living after .years of crhimnal prodigality. Smualls and WViipper amnd Swalls and Sam Lee and the Charleston gang, especially, wore smeared all over with'rira and their removal from ativo political life wouAld have been ai matter of no difficulty. But the au tyies,.atonqttne'or.pid i4ithi fbar, have been watuned into fresh vigor and are virulontly stilging tihe hand that spared them. This is Radical grati tude. Experienco has fully shown the danger of manimisting the least degree of magnanimity loward.s (hose who were conspicuously idenitiled with thle party of iiate, corruption and plunder. 1t. is not too late. Justice to the iloceit citizens who have been dragged from their homes on truped-up affidavits demanis that the machinery of the courts e at once put in motion to puilishl the knaves that have thus far gone unwhipt, of justice, and are using their liberty to make onke3 more insidious attiack upon Democratic supremiacy in the South. -Om11 SOUND AlD V1C0E. What a Colored Man Thinks of tho Po litical Situation. Well, colored gentlemei, we hive been fooled long enough. 'Tiwas "'forty acres of land amid a mule." Second, 'twas high taxes, anld the land would be Bold, and we would buy it. If men who owned land couldn't pay the tax, how could we pay the priIncipal and the tax? Men who own nothing have no interest in voting. A -poor man is t good voter. 'Twas the inter est of the North to keep you poor. Men who own property can not be sat isfied to allow men to control their property who own none. Every col ored man has a trade-to draw the line and push his plow-chop with his hoe and cut. .vith his axe-hove his plane and pushi his saw-make his mortar and use his trowel. While peace and quietness cover the land, Governor Hampton is the man. I don't wonder that so imy men are candidates for sheritf. If the average of prisoners in eachjail is about ten, year by year the county pays thirty cents a day for each prisoner, and thirty ceits will feed them all. The taxpayers have it all to pay. If' you won't take advice from white mnen1 to leari how to keq out of ji ii, look at theiii-:lo as they do and stay ont[ of jail. Soon as day began to break in Southil Carolina you wer., told you couldn't live here. TIle head of every fimily pays ten dol lars aid it will carry yon to Liberia. Every good citizen Should come 111) to the polls and vote for Gaillard, Brice and Clowney, and for Governor liIamp ton, and all go to work and he hlioest and let us have good laws and a gooil country.
