FRIDAY, MAY 21, 1880. hex. johnson hao001). There is no question that Gen. Johnson Ilagood is the choice of ?i'?ugcburg for Governor, and. that be will receive the unanimous sup pout of our delegation in tho dune Convention, if the nomination should bo made at that. time. Con. Ilttgood's business talent, manly qualities and quiet unobtru sive manner wins for him the suppoit of the people. His recent letter declining an in vitation to address the Democratic Club of Ncwberry is in perfect keep ing with his character. He is not willing to assume the role of a seek er of the olllee as the acceptance of stich an invitation would imply. We believe that there is nothing to prevent the nomination of (Jen. Ilagood for Governor, unless it should l>e the centering of delegates on a third candidate on the ground of the harmony of the party being impaired by the bitterness of the ad herents of the two candidates now most prominently before tho State. Nor do we imagine thai such a contingency would arise for Gen. Gary has proved himself to boa man of genuine patriotism and magna nimity; and believe, before he would see the harmony of the party endan geied that be would, w ith his charac teristic manliness ami fairness, cn dorsc'Gcni Ilagood in the Conven t ion, and wo urge bis friends to unity. We do not anticipate the len d dan ger to the parly unity in any event. the stAtii ?tHticfT/TT ral col LEjQEi it, i:? well known that the Hill for higher education in the State passed by the:laSt Legislature provided for the establishment.of a distinct, sepa rate and equal Slate College for each race. Tho college for the coloiod people has been in successful operation for some time in Orangeburg. Thai for the w hit.-; at Columbia has just been organized by a very eilieient faculty. Don. Win. Porohor Miles has been made President and Professor Le < 'onto one of i be faculty. . .Mr. Miles i.-, well known In bo a gentleman of culture, learning and varied information. I!:-; copulation as a prolessor^n the < oil ego of Char leston before the** war has not been forgotten. lie is also favorably kown as :i furnier Mayor ol'Charlos toii. and as a most acceptiible and aide Congressman before and <\ iring | the war. Prof. LeCoute was one <d* t he old Professors of the College turned out by the Radicals, and he comes from California w here he had accepted the Presidency of the California College. We trust that a new day is dawn ing for South Carolina, and that the College now organized will reach the standard of the old College in w hich every South Carolinian lookajtisl pride. WAS IT A IJAHOAIN .' The New York uTribune" say that Hampton is the first Democrat who has had the honesty to conic out in a speech in a favor of keeping the agreement made between the friends of Kellog and Holler in the Senate. This sounds to us like very si range talk. Can it be possible thai a bar gain or agreement was made between Senators as lo the seating of one ol their number? And, again, if such a bargain was made against the ii<_'hts yfa Stale, is it binding? .Men may talk siboul policy, but tu our mind the public mornlih is \t\ far of groalei' importance. will Tin: north ufa HI Thomas White, a white man who \. -* co:r, jetod uf I he murder of Pete Hawkins, colored, was hanged oil las!

Lipscoinb, the farmer's friend, und INI aster of the State Graugc , as the most available man for Governor. The "Mercury," in common with the .Marlboro "Plan ter" and other papers, thinks that there other men in the State besides tlagood and Gary who would suit for j Governor. THE II Hi II ST?IOOLOF I'll AHLESTON j The City Council of Charleston has empowered the Trustees of the High School to sell the school build ing in Society street, und purchase the magnificent King mansion and grounds for the purposes of the school. The King mansion is admirably adapted for the school, and although the old school building is a fine one, the change will be an immense im provement. We find a natural interest in this old school, and we are delighted to hear of its llntlcriug prospects. The King mansion was recently sold at public sale on very reasona ble terms, and the gentleman pur chasing it, heariug of the desire of the Trustees to secure it, magnani mously turned it over to the Trustees at his bid, although ho was ottered a much higher price. A TERRIBLE SCENE. A most unfortunate and thrilling accident took place in Atlanta, Ga? one day last week, It seems that a number of young ladies and gentlemen had assembled at the Opera House for a public ex hibition. Some ten ladies, just be fore the commencement of the per- I lb finance, wore assembled in the ! dressing room. They were attired, in (lowingtaletons with wings person ating angels. The wings of ouc of the young Indies happened to touch :i gas jet, when the Hann s soon com pletely enveloped her. In her cx? 'de ment and moving about, the lire was communicated to others in the room and the result was that some four or live of the performers were most se verely burned, from the eiltet cd' which two of the unfortunate ones have since died. All the help possible was rendered by gentlemen present, but it was to little purpose: We trust that it may be n wholesome warning to all to be careful tinder similar circumstances. One of the young ladies, AI i - s Mnyrant, was a native of Charleston. THE KELLOK-SPOFF?RD CASK. The recent speech of Senat?, r Hampton on this subject in the Sen ate has awakened a fresh interest in this eontro> ersy. It will he remembered that in l?S7ti ?Judge Spotlbrd was elected Senator from Louisiana by the legally elected Nichol's Legislature; and at the same i time K el log wn:-sent up by the bogus and fraudulent I'nckard Legislature. The I'nited States Semite being, at thai time, Republican by a small majority, K el log sera pet I in and the legally elected Senator was not ad mitted. The spnt leys Kellog has kept his sea! ever muco, until a short lime back ;i" Senate appointed a Com mittee i" inquire into his tenure. The < om in it tec, niter investigation \:-.\ > the merit'- of the case, reported, recommending that the usurping Kellog be unsealed, and that Judge Spotlbrd, who was elected by the legal Legislature, now recognized and existing, be seated. This report immediately created a howl. The cry of bad policy was l:e.i I'd Oil every side. Mr. Hill,of Georgia, made :i most al b-ami convincing speech in sup port of the Committee's report. Ma iv I ' 1:0-rats, however, have tak en an op| o-ite position, and among (hem Senator Hampton. They think i' is had policy, and that the Demo crats w ill lose by it. Senator Hampton, in his recent I trreal speech, takes the ground that 1 he matter win si tiled by a previous Sei aii < "ii mitlee and that it cannot now be re opened; that if a Senator's seat is liable to hi- unsettled every lime the Senate changes its political C inplexioii then- can lie nothing p -i inaiieiit and stal le. It seems to us, however, that this is a w long light in w hieb to \ ii IV the matter. We agree with Senator Hampton that "we should rise above part\ ." and for this reason we can not condescend Lothe idea that the Demonrtt3 art iui?i\'iting Mr. lieiiogj because be is n Republican, but they are proposing to unseat hiiio because he is not the legally elected Senator from Louisiana, and Judge Spotiord is, and no State should be deprived of its right, to a Senator of its own selection [by the arbitrary will of a partisan Senate. If Kol log is not Senator?and we would ask, where is the Legislature that elected him??then he ought not to be allowed to bohl his seat, no matter what may be the dictates of policy, or what may be the conse quences to the Democratic party. We cannot endorse the sentiment or idea that a Senators seat should be so linn and unshaken. His seat is always subject to good behavior, and fraud is the worse, kind of behavior that we eau conceive, of, aud ought never to be connived at, much less tolerated, in the United States Sen ate. The Columbia ''Register11 says: "No one who knows Senator Hamil ton will, for a moment, permit him self to doubt the Senator's sincere and conscientious discharge of what he conceived to be his duty. Not a few, however, will deprecate with us the great Carolina Senator's concep tion of 'the fixed and immutable principle of justice^, by which lie finds it necessary, in good con science, to protect aud defend the seat of a Senatorial rogue who bad never been elected by any recognized or lawful Legislature of any recognized State of the Union; and w ho had been seated by the Nicer power of a former partisan Senate, which, takmg advantage of a bare majority, seated Ivel log against all right, reason, jus tice or truth, and despite the solemn protest of every Senator of the oppo sition, who denounced, it at the time as the most unrighteous, scandalous a no abusive ?X??ciso of party dornt* FI It K M A N'S TO URN A M E NT. ? * A grand fireman's tournament will take place in Columbia, during the sitting of the State /Convention, on the 1st of June.

You have killed him as n Presiden tial candidate, so w hat else do you want? lie was elected President of the United States, and if he was traded otf or tricked out of his seat it was no fault of his. The sin aud cowardice was not in his submitting to the Electoral Commission, but in Democrats permitting such a fraud to be created. As a Presidential candidate he is now u dead cock in the pit. so can't we let him alone and harp on another string. Hon. J. N. Frierson, of Sunder, has been nominated for State Treasurer.
