THE NEWS AND HERALD. WINNSB ORO. 8. C. THURSDAY, MARCH 6, , 1870. R. FR.AN8 IDA YlS, EDITOR. JNO. S. RRYNOt D, AsiOCIAT EDITOR. SENATOR TELLER evidently iniscon- I strued the prize offer of the News and Courier, and lihbricated a serious story of a different sort from that desired. He will not get the hundred dollar prize. McCRART, secretary of war, and Thompson, secretary of the navy, are shortly to visit Charleston to inspect the harbor and jetties. Preparations are making to-give them a cordial re ception. . .II THa CONORESSIONAL oX was in the pit on Sunday, and Congress was employed all day in fruitlessly en deavoring to get him out. It is said that a clergyman came into the lobby and publicly rebuked the Sabbath breakers, but was waltzed out by a doorkeeper. Congress is reprehensi ble for thus violating the uay, es pecially as no substantial good was effected. TuOSE I'ARTIES who propose to elect a Chief Justice of South Carolina for the express purpose of cursing the debt, had better consult the experi ence of Balak, who sent for Balaan to curse the children of Israel, but heard most unwelcome words. A private individual may have aiyj opinion he please, yet when he is elevated to the bench his Individuality is lost, and he must interpret the law as he finds it. Nothing is sure in this life but death and taxes. Remember Balak and Balaam. Tna RADICAL Senators on Monday made fools of themselves in putting a proviso to the Mexican pensions bill that Jeff Davis should be excluded from its benefits. President Davis would not have taken the money any how, and Aingling him out for abuse is merely insulting the whole South. It was well shown that the United States is stultifying itself by thrusting honors on such arch rebels as. Long street, Mosby and Key, and suffering Joe Johnston and Hampton and Gor don and others of that ilk to sit in Ccuwsa.. hunf/'TqWI3r luoptuteraW, is made a political pariah..... Sjeph special attention makes Mr. Davis a greater hero than he would otherwise be. Many people at the South criti cised him severely both during and after the war, but when he is made the outward and visible sign of all the memories and associations of the Lost Cause, the South will stand by him to the death. Old Zach Chandler, the presidential thief, had the effrontery to say that Mr. Davis had perjurod himself in taking the oath of office before the war with a lie in his heart. What the people wish to know of Zach is not what Mr. Davia did, but what he himself did with those cipher despatches he sent to Florida and Louisiana in 1876. The charitably disposed will be inclined to attribute the Michigan Senator's speech to drunkennees. If lie persists in swill ing liquor he will see worse devils before long than ever Mr. Davis was. The upshot of the wvhole controversy in the Senate was that the entire measure was defeated and the Mexican veterans will get no pensions. Showing it all Up. The Potter committee has made an able, clear and dispassionate report, bare of all rhetorical flourish and bombast, but severe and cutting in its simple statement of facts. The theft of the Presidency by the Republicans is shown by the logic of the groat events of the time, the testimony of such cattle as Weber, Anderson and Jenks being totally disregarded. It is shown that the Florida Canvassing Board withheld its report until the day for casting the electoral vote, so the Radicals could meet, vote for Hayes, and adjourn before any attempt could be made to stop them. The Legislature and the Supreme Court both demanded a re-count, which gave the State to Tilden~ be yond a shadow of a doubt. Yet the Electoral Commission counted the stolen votes. Ini Louisiana, Hayes received several thousand votes less than Packard. Yet the eleotoral vote was cast for him. The first return was defective, and the president of the Senate refused to receive it. A new one was made out seeretly and the signa(ures of at least two electors deliberately forged. The original re turn was given to the Eight..to-Seven commission, and after its decision, it was stolen from the records and the forged one substituted as the original. All these thets constitute an organized conspiracy. This is 'aggravated by the appointinent of all the Returniug )oard raaes1i to - ft offices. Wash sngton .lett$ts say that the reor cans. No Wonder, it so plainly shows their guilt. The three Republican members of the conmittee are to make a separate report, declaring everything lovely. Beast Butler, with his unique love of making every body feel uucomfortable, will submit his version of the aflhir, showing, in addition to other matters, how layes hobnobbed with South Carolina and Louisiana and traded otl' those States for the Presidential chair. Wriggle as they may, however, history will convict the Republicans of a bold and shameless robbery of the highest office in the gift of the United States. The handwriting is on the wall. The Radicals are doomed. DR. C. I.
