But ho howled at the brand put upon his brow. Nowhold went to the House of Refuge at Columbia and through the pots of the State Administration us high diplomats arranged that he should not be molested until the Court at Spartanburg should adjourn. It was a wholesome regard for Justice which diplomats at Columbia and the State's Governors well considered. Nowbold was then allowed to return to the bosoms of his distinguished friends in York and Chester. Finally the Court at Spartanburg adjourned until March next and the diplomatic Columbia ar rangements were carried out. On Monday last Nowbold came to Chester with a great flourish. A Magistrate wns secured and a warrant issued.? Nowbold submitted to a friendly con stable, the Magistrate required no roturn and there wns no commitment to tho Chester Jail. Instead an hon orary guard was supplied and tho pri soner allowed to proceed In a palace coach to the Columbia While House whore tho diplomacy was renewed, tho Attorney General of the Stute bolng In the counsels. What to do and how to dlsp i.so of tho distinguished prisoner was discussed with the gravity of a national issue. There is no ex agoration hero?the facts as uncontra dloted support this presentation of the ease. But tho funniest part of the travesty occurred at C;.ester where tho State's important prisoner perform ed the preliminaries to the ridiculous travesty upon justice, as sho is now, and reoently enacted in the State. We quote from a letter addressed from Chester to the News and Courier, evi dently by an intelligent corres pondent, describing tho ovation ac corded by the Officials and prominent citizenship of that bailiwick: "Chief Morgan was tho first caller and he found New bold resting easy in his room, surrounded by his family, with his pistols buckled on. Soon af r,3r Mr Thotnason appeared upon the ?; :enc, and informed the chief that Nowbold was his prisoner, then Sheriff Cornwall, Magistrate Williams und Solicitor Henry called and paid their respects to the gentleman." Now we are always and at all times end under all circumstances of a char itable disposition. The Magistrate .v'no failed to commit this man charged v'th tho gravest felony known to 60 i iety is excusable in the presence of f to constabulary and the Solicitor of the Circuit; we desire to emphasize t is point; but especially do we ask e- arity for the Circuit Solicitor in ?al'ing to mike his obeisance in view i f the character of tho prisoner and wrll known friends in the White House fit < olumbhi. It was a notable ovation. Nodoubt the participants duly con {? rv d souvenirs of the occasion: "Yea, (did) beg a hair of him for m iinorv, And dying (will) mention it within ?b lr wills, Bequeathing it as a rich legacy, Unto their issue." Thon, surrounded by armed guards, the gentleman proci cd- d to C< lumbia in a Pullman coach and held a confer ence at the Slate House. "( ANo ARMA QUK VIRUM." Now what we have written is in tended to bear on the times - not upon Newbold's rase. He is entitled to a fair trial ?1 y an unbiased Jury of his countrymen. This he will have In Spartanburg County But bo it re membered there was a time oven in South Carolina, when a homicide was committed, that every citizen from the highest to the humblest, was ready to , sco that the perpetrator, justifiable or not, responded at once to the umj sty of the law. Let every man be in dicted who had any hand in h rborlng Newbold and lot the Attorney General see to it. In the meanwhile lot the Governor hands oh* until the case reaches him in an official way. Governor 10 lorbe, it is announced, will bo a candidate for re-election and will run upon his record. Wo tome times read that it is custom In South Carolina to give a Govern >r two terms. Hardly. Several Governors have had two terms. Before tho war one term was tho rule. McDuHlo and Hammond were coutent with a two years term. Hampton served part, of his first term with Chamberlain and of his second torm only ono year. Simp son served a year. Hagood f.ftor a year turned over the high trust. Thompson was chosen twico, but served out hut three years. John C. Sheppard a year. Richardson two terms. In tho last half century not far from a half dozen Governors have had two terms. There is no such custom unless one swallow makos spring. We are not quarreling with Governor Rllerbe.? He has "not had a year yet. Ho is right to bo tried by his record. He has had an awful time with the Atlas ^dispensary on bis shouldors, the Me tropolitan Olympus, and the dobrls of the phosphate Interest crumbling around him. Ho ha9 fourteen months left of tho twenty-four and lot us pee if ho pulls us out of the woods. * * It has come to pass in South Carol!- \ na that a party charged with murder can be supposed to consult with tho Governor beforo surrendering to the Magesty of tho law.
