FRIDAY, MAY 21, 1880.

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.

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.

A NEW BOOM.
The Columbin "Mercury" nomi
nates Hon. James N. 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

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*

A grand fireman's tournament will
take place in Columbia, during the
sitting of the State /Convention, on
the 1st of June. I^ive companies
from abroad will attend and partici

like to see Orangeblll'g represented
by "Uncle Joe." It will be a gala
day. The Mayorv^yid citizens of
Columbia arcmakuig^rand prepara
tions there will be excursion rates on
all of the railroads.
Gentlemen, w hat's the aim of this
imvss int abuse of old man Tilden?
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

/Sditor Orangcburg 'lime*:
Please announce Mr. Charles B. Glover
as a candidate for the above office. It is
useless to say anything in his favor,as his
ability is already displayed by the manner
in which he has discharged the duties of
that position during his term of service.
We further iirgo onr claim in his behalf on
the ground, that the incumbent of that
oflicc ought to have considerable experience
Li tin- practice of law. as the oflicc is not
ministerial, but is beyond a doubt, judicial.
Any persons, deciring to satisfy themselves
on this point, can do so by referring to the
Constitution of our State, '"Article 4, Judi
cial Department, Sec. 120." Also Ueviscd
Statute-, pages 57- to 57S, ''Title I, Pro
hate Court," and to the''Rules of Court."
In nominating Mr. Glover through your
columns, we pledge him and ourselves, to
abide by the decision of the Democratic
