THE NEWS AND HERALD.
WINNSBORO, 8. 0.
.842URDAY, MACHWI 15, a 1870.
It. A E.AN8 DA VIS, EDITOR.
JNO. S. REYNOLDS. ASSOCIATE EDITOR.
IN PRESENTING the views of Con
gressmen we onitted to say that thir
teen are for Hendricks.
VINNIE REAM's latest is her best. It
weighs about twelve pounds. The
piece has been called a Cupid.-Ex
change. Other people call it a baby.
CHARLES NOwnIOFF says: "There
are still Democrats who believe that
they will elect a President in 1880, but
their number is decreasing." Oh,
Charles, how can you say so?
IN VIEW of the close division in
Congress and the remarkable mor
tality of Democratic Congressmen, it
would be well in future to make every
candidate produce aphysician's cer
tificate of soundness.
Good-Bye, Aaor,
The Liberia Exodus Association has
deservedly come to grief. The bark
Azor has been libeled in the United
States Court in the . sum of $6,733,
most of which is due the captain and
mate. It is claimed that the vessel is
worth twenty-five thousand dollars,
but as the association cannot pay off
the clains against her she will be
sold. Thus will be terminated one of
the chief swindles of the day. Any
balance left over after Batisying
claims silpuld be expended in charter
Ing a ship to go to Liberia and bring
back the deluded people who were
.carried over there to sufler. Home
is the best place for white and black.
Grant's Triuntphal Procession.
The Rlepublicans are making the
most desperate efforts to retain their
grasp on the Presidential chair in
1880. Fearing that their other leaders
may be overwhelmed at the polls,
they are raising the war cry and howl
lug lustily for Grant. The schemes on
foot to manufacture enthusiasm over
.the Smoky Casar are anusing in the
last degree. The most absurd of -all
is conveyed in a letter received at the
Omaha ollce of the Union Pacific
- Railroad, which "details a plan for a
-grand excursion from Washington to
San Francisco, about the 1st of Au
gust next, to receive and welcome ex
President Grant on his return from
the Orient. The writer states he has
spent some weeks at Wa-shington,
conversed with leading Senators and
llpresenItatives, and that many favor
the project enthusiastically3. Partien
lar's of a trip through Inidiana, cor
respondence with Kellogg and Pitkinu
in Louisiana, and other details are
.given, which indicate that from fifty
thousand to seventy-flyve thiousalnd
persons wvould join in the excursion.
Preparations for such an excursion
would require much time, ami tihe
letter is writteni to secure reduced
rates previous to any public announce
ment. It is stated that every State
in the Union wvill be represenited, andi
the excursion wvill i'equire tX'om one
hundred to one hundred and twentv
flye trains of ten cars each." This
would be one of' the biggest cir'cuses
.ever seen in America-Grant being
the elephant, and1( his toadies the asses,
apes and parrots eof the Procession.
Such~ a nonsensical parade would ex
Cite the disgust of every one.
The Military.'
Adjutant General Moise has issued
an order to those militia companies
holding Roberts' rifles to) return them
as unserviceable weapons, and to send
them to a firm in New York for ex
change. The State appropriates flye
thousand dollars of the incoming
taxes for exchanging weapons, andl
while the new arms cannot be ob
tained till fall, they will be given to
those coinpanies that first hand in
their old1 ones. inasmuch as the
militia are not expected to enter2 into
any war in the near future, and as
the su1ply of arms of all sorts is
very limited, It may be asked why
not retain the 01ld guns and expend
the appropriation. in purchasing new
ones, so as to increamse the flumbor,
instead of improving the quality. A
gun Is a gun as far as mereo drilling
is concerned, and in thme opinion of a
civilian, it Is better to gratify five
coinpanies, even at the risk of giving
seime of them inferior Weapons, .than
to equip only thm'eo with rifles wvar
ranted to perforate a hiostile fryader a
mile off. The wvay to preserve milifta
ry organis.ationi is to provide as many
companies with arms us possible. No
company will exist any lengthm of time
-without megular equipmients, and
p even unser'vicable rifles are better
than none at all. South 'Carolina
does not propose to whip the United
States governyn9nt, or acquire Mexico
within the rspxt sten years, thereforo
why .deprive tha militaryo tei
first be equipped. Then It will be
time enough to begin the task of ex
changing for first class weapons.
We observe also that a court . mar
tial has been called to convene In
Columbia on the first day of Decem
ber next, over which Maj.-Gen. John
D. Kennedy will preside, assisted by
Brig.-Gen. G. Richardson, Col. D. P.
Sojourner, Lieut.-Col. R. C. Wahs,
and Captains Wiley Jones and W. A.
Courtenay. Charges will be preferred
against all Adjutants who have failed
to present. their detailed reports as
required by order. Col. Louis
LeConte, Judge-Advocate-Goneral,
will attend and represent the State at
such con rt martiat.
Things are beginning to look squal
ly. Those adjutants who foolishly
accepted olice in the State militia,
looking only to the gold lace, brass
buttons and the glory of the dress
parade, will now tremble in their
boots at the imminent danger thei' are
threatened with of death sentence by
a drun-head court martial. And as
all the worthless weapons will have
been changed by Dece.nbor for others
of a deadly nature, the condened canl
indulge in no pleasing hope of a cap
snapping or a gun bursting and hoist
ing the executioner with his own
petard. By a singular omission no
provision is made for killing oll'sever
al lundred governor's aides at the
same time. 'This is discrimination of
the most flagrant nature. A court
martial should be organized to see
that every colonel in the service
whether of stall or line have a pair
of spurs at least six inches in diane
ter, and not less than fort.y-eight brass
buttons on the breast and sixteen on
the coat-tail. The adjutants must not,
sufl'er alone. If they do they will
ever be mourned as martyrs to the
cause, and their death will be avenged.
