THE JIUMBER2 -ANDREWS MUD
DLE.
In our last issue we published the
interview between Humbert and tho
reporter of the News and Courier, hop
Ing by this time to give the answer of
Senator Andrews to tho grave charges
contained therein; but from the follow
ing paragraph taken from the Orango
burg Ncwo, the officiul orgau of the
County, of which Senator Andrews ib
editor, wo judge the public will have
to continue in doubt or surmise, until
the silting of Court, as to where their
money is gone:
"It was his intention to make a full and
complete answer to the charges made by
Humbert against him, but as ho has been
legally advised not to do so, and as he designs
to court, nay, demand a full investigation at
this Term of the Court, the public will get no
answer from him juat now.
In the mean time thousands of the
peoples money have been spirited
away, which the taxpayers will have
to make good, or importaut interests
of the county must assuredly suffer.
We hope the Grand Jury will take
note of the disclosures, and use every
effort to bring the guilty to justice, if
such can be obtained froni the Courts.
It is but another of the innumerable
frauds which have marked the career
of the Republican party of tho South,
and made it a by-word and reproach to
the honest people of the nation.
The rich may bo able to bear these
leakages of the public treasury, but
the poor man, who eats his bread by
the sweat of his brow, and who makes
the money that pays the taxes, will be
the sufferer.
TRAFFIC IN SEED COTTON.
Wo hear complaints in every direc
tion about the illicit traffic in seed cotton
The farmers in some sections aro al
most ruined while the store keepers
^ are growing rich.
It iB certainly hard on tho poor far
mer, who risks his scanty means in a
crop to find nt the cutl ol the year that
the greater part of it has been stolen
from him. The abridging of liberty
in any shape is contrary to our Demo
cratic nature, but we think that neither
Republicans nor Democrats should
object to an abridgment of the liber
ty to steal.
A law simply requiring each store
keeper, under severe penalty lor omis
sion, to keep in a book, open .to public
inspection, a correct register of the
kind of produce sold tc him, the name
of the seller and the dato of sale, would
be a powerful auxiliary in tracing the
thief, and would act as a partial check.
A thief would not be apt to curry
produce to a place where his name will
be registered, and if a reward ^is oiler
ed to any one reportiug a store keeper
who neglects to register, he will hard
ly run the risk of paying a heavy line.
Will the Lcgislaturo consider the
matter?
LOUISIANA.
Of all tho Southern States, this is
nadoubtedly the most Radical ridden
and abused.
Any one would have thought that
the Kellog usurpation and Durell or
der wai enough infamy for one genera
tion in a so-called free country; but
the recent action of the Returning
Board in changing a Conservative
majority of twenty-nine to a Republi
can majority of two is, if true, a start
ling demonstration of what Radical
madness will attempt.
It is said that Gra^t has taken sides
with tho usurpation and has sent Gen.
Sheridan to maintain cider. It is
hoped that the people of Louisiana
will keep perfectly cool under this des
potism, and let these two men alone
in their folly. Every body gavo them
credit for better sense than of their
own accord to fasten the nails stronger
in the Radical coffin.
If they expect in this way to goad
the pcoplo to revolt, and thus raise t ho
cry ol Southern insubordination to
help the cause of Republicanism in
1870, we trust tho good judgment of
the pcoplo will foil their design. In
this wc think we have an encouraging
assurance in the expression ofGov.
McEneiy that'resistance to the nation
al authority hits never been meditated.'
Wisdom plainly dictates for the peo
pie of Louisiana to bear their troubles,
however insupportable, a little while
longer.
MCG 0 WANVS. Ii0G&
A correspondent of tho News' aud
[Courier suggests thataaa- Republican
' Congress seated Hogo who was beaten
iu 1808 by Reed the Democratic
Candidate, the Democratic Congress
might retaliate and seat Gen McGow
?an, who has more plausible grounds
for contesting tho election. We nro
willing if Hogo was frnudulenty cloc
ted for Gen McGownu to take the ?eat,
but we are totally opposed to his taking
it on any other grounds. Let the
Democratic party do right, no matter
what Republicans may do.
Corruption may flourish for awhile,
but it is sufc ultimately to bring des
truction in its train* However much
we may desire a voico in Congross, lot
it bo obtaiued fairly or never.
