The Democracy, with cjharucteris
i.ic*dignity, conservatism, and honor
able consistency, maintain that the
Constitution is the i&nly source of
federal powc and all powers not
granted by thai instrument to the
^General Government are reserved to
'live .States. It seeks to make its leg
islation conform to this correct and
patriotic interpretation of the Consti
tution. It contends for a free ballot,
opposes lire use of the army to keep
jlhe peace at the polls, is in favor of
home rtiie, impartial juries, and a re
peal' of the .lost oath. Tlvese mat

E/cjhjyi Justice.
We arc highly pleased to note that
our ectcenied cotcmporary, the' ?\ u,8
'ami (fouria; baa spoken out,1 and'in1
ho' rincertaiu language, upon" Hire
mon'?lr'ous evil which allows mem
ber's of the first families of the land,
'becauae of Uieir great social influ
ence, to go Unwhippcd of justice,
when they arc'really guilty of enor
moUs offences' ?t io high time that
'aristocratic influences ujiould cease to
be' felt In lud courts of 'justice and
govern the actions of lift officers.
That it has been the potential agent
in staying tho hands of justice from
visiting merited punishment upon
many a guilty heud is a fact which
.eannot In- gaiusaycd. It is a shame
upon the laud that it is so. The
report of the Grand Jury for Rich
land County to Judge Wallace, on
tho 14th instant, is an instance of ex
emplary investigation, and the fol-.
lowing exMaet from ihat report;
should be a note of warning to the
oflicers of tho law in every county in
tho State. Referring to three white
men who had been confined for sotno
trivia! OiFcucu, und who were unabjo
to give a bond of two hundred dollars
to secure their relief, it says : "They
arc confined in a felon's cell, without
ono article of furniture, the bor.e ?oor
and a few rags to sleep ou, when coon
accused of tbo ^ugliest ,cr,ium ikoown
lo the law are placed iu large, airy
rooms, neat, .clean and reasonably
furnished." This practice of discrimi
nation on the part of sheriffs and
jailors iu favor of .criminals of social
standing is widespread and tnerits
rebuke. J.f ,we mistake uot there is a
statute against it. The popular sense
of justice .demands that this law be
enforced.
The Hoat.
On last Wednesday the great heat
wave struck our town, and on Satur
day the thermometer registered 104
degrees. The oppression was almost
unendurable by man and beast.
There were several instances of sun
stroke, one of which, Mr. Michael
Haley, u tiremau on -the South Caroli
na (Railroad, who fell at the depot,
terminated fatally, despite the kind
efi'orts of physician and friends iu
'about four hours. Many were so
prostrated as tobe compelled to fore
go their us,ual labor. A universal
calm seemed to prevail, there was no
breeze to fan the checks of lhetbeatcd
sufferers, and the shadows o,f night
brought but littlo relief from the op
pressive sultriness. From morning
until night and from night until
morning there was no comfort to be
!du ml. The exhausted workman
sought ii*; vain for rest, and the gen
tlemen of leisure could no where find
a cool spot to admit of repose. ,In
Charleston tjUe e#e,uty of tho i\eat
were fearful, causing a score of deaths
and dangerously prostrating xeuny ol
the people. In other large cities it
was equally severe and fatal in i/Ls
effects. On Sunday the reft calling
showers came, and with it, the cool
ing winds, the of nights repose, and
an unspeakable relief from the fever
ish distress of the days preceding. It
will io all probability be a long time
before. w.e will ha\& another such
wave of beat.
The Yellow Foyer..
This terrible scourge appeared in
Memphis again a few days since,
striking terror and consternation to
the hearts of its citizens. Immedi
ately thecgodue began, and as fast as
they could the people made thetf es
cape by every conceivable method of
conveyance. So that In a few days
from being a city of large propor
lions Memphis was left' with but a
handful of inhabitants. The excite
ment was wide-spread. Other cities
forbade the entrance of goods or per
sons from Memphis within their lim
its, thus completely paralysing the
commercial life of UiQ city. But as
we go to press the reports from
Memphis are more reassuring. No
new cases haVb appeared, and what
ut one time threatened to bo the up
rising of a dark, cloud of disease and
death to cover the Mississippi valley,
do.es happily promise lo die in its
inception. It is true some cases have
appeared in New Orleuns, but every
thing is being done to put that city
in good sanitary condition, and there
need be no fear of an epidemic there.
Loves' Labor Lost.
The Radical leaders here may or
ganise and harrauguc the negroes as
they did on the 4th of July as much
us Uhey please* but there is one thing
'.hoy may as well understand at once,
and that is, t,kat .the honest citizens of
this county, white and colored, in
tend to control its affairs by electing
honest men to office in 1880. They
tfill never submit to being lorded
over again by the thieves and plun
derers that once ruled Ihedcsljiues of
gram! old Orangehurg. Their ,duy
has passed, and, wc repeat, the Radi
cal leaders may as well understand it
at once. We ulso warn Ibctn tobe'
careful how they stir up strifo among
the colored people and embitter them
against lUcir white neighbor, or for
bearance may cease to be a virtue.

fellow to watch honest people. 1
He Came, He Saw, Ho Conquered.
Editor Orangehurg Democrat:
With, the language of the proud Cu>
aar on my lips, yet it is not of the Ko
rnau demigod that I think ; but, "vol
umed and vast, and rolling fur," my
thoughts revert to Floddcn Field, of
which Sir Walter Scott has given so
glowing a pen-picture. Ono scene,
especially, comes vi.vidly he/ore we, j
suggested by ftdxe wor/jls above. 'Tis.
where ,tho poet .with startling force
.Utters tbc expiring cry o(f pro(ud Mnr
inion'e '.brave spirit :
'?'Victory!
Charge, ehester, churgol On, Stanley,
uu!" ' (.
Tho m|ot fcbut veils the past seems
lifted ajpoye'[(heir bristling lances, as
afar dow^Um Vista'oX.departed years,
we can in imagination see the Scot
tish hosts uu\vance wbUc no
"Martial .shout, nor uVlustrel /one
Announce t^'ch* niu.rieli'; their treutl clone,'
At times ojio wa'riijrig trumpet blown, j
At times u stLUed hum, ?' ? '
Which iold Idigluud, .from Ids mountain
throne,
King James did rushing come."-'
In modem times and on the .touted
field, another battle bus been fought,
which, if nojt so u^ome.ut,o.us ip its
causes and results, wu3 waged with
us much ardor, and in the interest of
a whole people. This is not the only
link, however, that extended ,the:
chain of ideas back to thut olden time
and rivited ,i,t there us if with books
of steel, the name of the modern hero
being associated with some of the
mo3t thrilling incidents of Albin's
eventful history. Again it was "a
Duncan" that down Irom his moun
tain home "did rushing come," und'
not only ,cu,me, but .carried -victory
before bis .keen and flittering lunqe.
On the l'Jth, a goodly host quailed
before the conqueror, or, pardon mo,
I should have said, some of the num
ber thut rullicd nguin under the stand
at Union on that day fell victims.
We were invited to a pic-nic there
on last Friday, or at least, that was
our impression, a muss Suuday School
pic-nic, and remembering the pleas
ant day spent there last year on a
similar occasion, most sootbing and
appetizing v.isions of probable treats
in store for .us, passed before us in
mental review ns we journeyed along
early on the eventful morn, .ere the
solar rays had melted our day-dreams
"like mists of a morbid fancy born."
At 9 A. M., we beheld an audience
already seated under the stand at the
camp-ground, designated us the cho
se,n spot for Ibis festal re-uniou iu
behalf of the cbildreji. There must
be some mistake, wc thought, no
preaching here to-day, surely. 'The
distinguished gentlemen invited to
deliver addiesses had not arrived, and
wc saw no occasion for this congrega
tional arrangement; however, sup
posing thai some new feature had
been introduced into the prescribed
order of exercises, wo silently joined
the silent throng, and had leisure to
indulge in rellcctions on the patience
and perseverance of the good people
of Uuion. The day was fearfully
warm* there being a number of trees
but little .sinute on the encampment;
but every body (nearly) for four hours
sat .upon the ancieut bcuchco con
structed simply of boards elevated on
blacks. There was no necessity for
their doing so, but they did.
After ten* J.iev. J. B. Platt intro
duced us orntor ,of ,thc day, Key. W.
W. Duncan, the other speakers bav
ing failed to present themselves., but
as he staled, although he had double
duty to perform, to speak for himself
and the nbscnt, the Professor proved
himself muster of the situation. His
remarks were addressed to the chil
dren, but wero highly interesting and
entertaining to all so fortunate as to
be in sound of his voice; indeed, we
have seldom seen any one so capable
of attracting end riveting tho atten
tion of his audience iu such a free
and happy manner. So nil who have
not had the pleasure of hearing him,
avail yourselves of the first opportu
nity, nshe will visit Orangebnrg very
soon to attend the Creek camp
meeting on the 243Ui of this month.
Lest we frighten off those fond of
brevity on these sultry days, we will
state that Mr. Duncan did not speak
four hours at one lime, {he can do it,
though, wc know, with perfect case.)
The choir, composed of tlic best
singers from each school, varied the
exercises by singing appropriate (Sun
day School songs, and 1 would not
bo surprised if, even as I write, a
dozen different persons are humming
uThc Master has come over Jordan,"
a favorite air with tho Professor,
which he learned us that day, at
Ipast, it js ringing in my cars, whis
tied, K.ung, or hummed all day by the
musienji young man of tho family.
A.t mid-day, a recess of short dura
tion, was given us. We understood
that ihero was to have been a pic-nic
o'n'Friday* 00 educational meeting on
Saturday, and a sennon on the Sab
bath. But, as intimated abovo, our
pic-nic was captured, we were cap
tured, and accepted the situation
gracefully, too. After a abort inter-j
mission, wo wended our way back to
the stand, that being the coolest place
to be found, and for .".while tbo bum
of conversation arose in fitful mur
murs, but suddenly our orator ap-1
peered again and wo retreated for
awhile. It wob useless to think of
fun?too warm for that: useless to
J talk about trifles, no eepso in that
j wbec such weightier subjects were
discussed, so exclaiming to our com
panions, partly in the language of
the immortal poet quoted above,
Linger not here, ,0, maldee f*ir 1
Yonder he qomos?charge again 5
See?Duueaw io-tho rescue! yalu
Thy converse, a migh?or Irabu
Of thoughts wUI now bo heard again.
Check thy vain hmguagei fly
O, youthful 8peaker~r-hie "
Thee from yon ylctor's ?o!
See he litis his spotless Hhleld^
Thy lips control?hark i the .war-cry sing
For Diiucan now uloue is jdng.
I Like the representative of the
Times, we deeply regret that Other
duties demanded our attention else
where, bo that only fragments of tlie
afternoon speech In behalf of Wofford
came to our cars, but we huvo heard
numerous testimonials of its worth.
One earnest admirer euid he would
ride fifteen miles the wurmest day in
summer to bear him ugain?aud thet
is our sentiment.
j On Saturday," Mr. Robertson, a
Baptist Evangelist of Virginia, ad
dressed .the children, and Mr. Dun
can preached a memorable sermon
both on that day and on the Sabbath,
j the rain preventing his fulfilling an
engagement to preach at Providence
Church in tho afternoon.
! No description" of a pic-aic is con
sidered complete without mention of
the refreshments,T suppose, and a
j more .bountiful or more .entjeiug re
past .was never placed before the
hungry public ttyan on this .occasion?
that is, hardly ever. Somehow,
though, it seems to us, tha,t notwith
standing their liberality 03d hospital
ity, the people have imbibed a singu
lar notion with regard to,conducting
a Sunday Scool pic-nic. They .tbuik,
and the little ones catch tin; infection,
that nothing must be .done which
would be out of place, at .church .on
the SabtbaUi.. My jdea pf a pic-jpje is
a time and place ;to enjoy one'e eelf
socially?any amount of fun being
acceptable. But because tho word
Sunday is associated wiuh school,
they associate the /idea also, and have
a very quiet, proper time, the chil
dren believing ftjiey njUBt wear along
with go-to-meeting dress, their go-to
incc.Uug air'prfflria child is hopeless
ly bad indeed who deviates from the
strict code of propriety, I wish they
could be transported to some Sunday
SchooJ pie.-nics 1 have attended,
where superintendents and teachers
taxed their ingepuity to invent and
conduct games for the amusement of
the little ones on their holiday. How
shocked somo would he to see the
races and games in which they in
dulged.
This is simply n private opinion
for which we arc responsible?the
more sober ones of other people are
of as much importance?we merely
suggest, not condemn, for, "The
grace of God fobid wc should be over
bohl to Jay rough hands on any man's
opinion. For opinions are, certes,
venerable properties, and those which
show the most decrepitude should
haye Uic gentlest handling."

A Csf d.
Editor Orangeburg Democrat:
As one of the Robinson men who
have been compelled to bear a good
deal of censure for supporting him in
the recent Convention, I hope you
will not refuse me a short space to
explain the situation.. I know your
well-known disposition bo harmony
may induce you to suppress and ar
ticle like this, but in my opinion a
sense of common justice and a love
of freedom should cause you to hesi
tate to slide the voice of the people
Wc are charged with a lack of par
ty fealty, and with endeavoring to
throw a firebrand in;,o our ranks in
pulling forward Mr. ?objn?cn. I
claim that it is not so ; hut that SIf.
Robinson was the true choice of the
peoplo, and that the delegates from
Uic couutry as a general thing came
up to voto for him, but a large num
ber of them were turned after they
came iuto town by the arguments of
Ihc more influential friends of Mr.
Glover at the Courthouse. As the
matter turned out in spite of these
conversions tho vote stood, Glover
88 and Robinson 25 ; and I feel satis
fied if the delegates had been left to
themselves and had vpted according
to their own dictates and according
to tho wish of the clubs they repre
sented that Mr. Robinson would have
been elected.
The argumenta brought to bear at
the Courthouse were that it was only
a short unexpired term, and that it
would injuro Robinson in the next
general election, and il was best to
let Mr. Glover alone for the little
while anil Mr. Robinson could be
elected the next time.
I know of a number of delegates
who were Robinson men and told nib
so in the country, but after they got
to Orangeburg I found they bad
changed to Glover men.
Now I do not write to cause dissat
isfaction in the party, but only to f.ct
the truth bo known. I belipvs in
sticking to tho choice of the Conven
tion, but in future let this bo a warn
ing for every delegate to think for
himself, and uot to let others do their,
thinking for them. This is the on\y
way to preserve tho harmony of the
party, and keep on the winning side.
A Membeu ov tue Convention,
<Gov. Simpson in his remarks to
the press said that all the invitations
showered upon its members showed
the appreciation in which the "Pi ess
is being held," th?t it bad borne the
bruut of the burden of sustaining the
people's courage in the late dark days,
and though some few of its members
may have been recreant, nearly all
were untiring and staunch in their
loyalty to the Stale and her civiliza
tion and honor, and now they are
raping their reward. Tdn's is very
cheering. People hare not fully com
prehended the hard labor and con
stant watchfulness of the press, nor
folt the lull power of its influence.
We are glad to know a higher and
healthier sentiment begins to obtain.
