' trol It's^?eHthtkfs'i; that the North is
' not ?eVti?TTRij and never intended to

' the new administration; and thai
1 millions of Northern capital and the
bone and sinew of Noilbern industry
Are ready to flow into the Southern
?States so booh as their citizens ac
-eepl the situation. . With considera
ble emphasis they nsk why not take
the proffered hand, let by gones be
'by-gottes and enter upon a new era
fin Southern progress? Why not?
This.docs not seem to be a specious
-argument, but fuir reasoning, and, in
view, of the recent .election, calls for
sober thought and'a'just reckoning.
What* ahs'wer has the South to make
in the face of the amendments which
were decided by the Supreme Court to
be ?ui.conslitutional; of the recon
struction ucts which placed the intel
ligence and civilization of the South
under the control of ignorance and
barbarism ; of the Louisiana frauds
and tthe South Carolina dual govern
ment ; of the election laws which v ere
intended to wipe out cur control of
local'htfairs ; and of the Curse Inflict
ed upon her through the eiv'l service
by foisting upon our citizens dishon
est ''carpel-naggers.' Let the South
maintain her solidity, accept the situ
ation as she now finds it mid owe al
legiance do no. party, and one hun
dred and thirty-eight electoral votes
will always secure the power to lake
care of herself, at least, until the sin
cerity of- Republican friendship be
tested or the duplicity of Northern
Democracy be proven. The South is
jn no strait, and need not be hasty.
JThe Cry of Fraud.
a*Tlie"unexpected result of the recent
erection throughout the "North has
arOOsed'tbe leaders of tho Democratic
panty of that ? section to .something
more-than their usual campaign ac
tivity. The uepubtjean vole of.New
York, particularly "Unit of the city,
was unlocked for ami fell like a thun
derbolt! from a cleur'sky on the De
mocracy of tho country. Illegal vot
ing is Charged in very nearly every
district of the State to nn extent suf
ficient to invalidate the claim of Geu
eral Garfield and to give the electoral
vote to General Hancock. To make
Ibjg apparent to the-whole country,
the Stale Executive Committee ate
bestirring themselves to inaugurate
such, an investigation us shall not fail
of tho end. It seems that the vote U
largely in excess of the actual popula
tion, especially in the cities of New
York and Brooklyn} and that other
frauds common in the pun lice of the
Republican parly have been perpe
trated in the rural districts which can
tie made to account for the unexpect
ed tcsull iu the Stale on the 2d hi
nt, ant. These irregularities arc not
positively assorted, but merely hinted
at, and leave the South in doubt as to
whether ?he should become reconcil
ed to the inevitable, or hope for a
-*?oo This is indeed poor sali fac
tion,and we are oiapuoexi ioi,?,i..
the whole matter as on \\ par with
Oilier shams of the Northern Democ
racy?a mere subterfuge for their
ireachery to the South. Our great
Ilde!est lies in our Mate and county
governments. These are secure, and
iV mntlers but little to i s what may
lie iiu". Outcome of this investigation.
|f the new administration will let us
alone, we can work out :i future for
South Carolina and Orange burg Conn
ty as bright and as glorious as ever
the past has been.
Republicans Alarmed.
There is a very noticeable nervous
ness in the Republican party ami in
business circles at the Ts'oj lit over the
reported investigation of the laic Re
publican victory at. the polls, now
being niudc by the Democratic eoui
milteeG in New Y?uk. What nil]
come of the mailer we do not know,
but rather think the frauds pet pel ra
ted by tl.o Republicans at this ch clinu
are not giouter liiitn the Electoral
Commission fraud of 187(1 j*nortlo we
think the ?'soll tMd''of the Nmihein I
Democrats in 1880 any more eiiniinal
than the "sell out" iu 187(i. We weic
jinictd to submit lo {he one ami will,
we suppose, submit lo this, lb side

Social Intirrimidati?n.
.Jt was well kaowu previous to the
late election that hundreds of bur col
ored otizcus intended to cut loose
from their" old party lies, and to cast,
their voles for the party of honesty |
and good government. This purpose
was not peculiar to the colored peo
ple of Orungcburg Oaunly, hut gene
ral throughout the Stale, and was
both a source of gratification to their
white neighbors and of chagrin to
to their old party leaders. To pre
vent it, therefore, became a necessity,
and every means was employed, even
the most cruel and barbarous,', to
keep the colored voter within the
Radical parly. To appease the bold
er, false promises were held out, and,|
to inlimmidate the more timid, the
parly lash was unsparingly used.
Colored Democrats were turned out
Iof the church, denied the privilege of
communing at the Lord's table, and
their services refused as Sunday
School teachers. Wives wire insti
gated by parly leaders, and in some
eases by Church olllcials, to separate
from their husbands. Female Iricnds
indignantly rejected the society ol
;cvery one .against whom there was
the slighnst suspicion of affiliation
with the Democrats. Complete cstra
Icism from both church and social cir
cles was the certain fate oi" colored
Democrats up lo the day ol' election,
and from morning to night of that
day they weie watched, followed up
and threatened until the Radical tick
et was cast. This slate of things calls
fur a remedy, and, before another
election, it must lie provided, or the
same troubles will confront us then
as now. Those who advise such pro
ceedings and, instigated by the devil',
urge our ignorant colored people to
such a disreputable aud barbarous
course of conduct, must he made to
desist or quit Ibe count)'. There can
be no peace for our people as long as
such breeders of strife and confusion
arc in our midst.
Radical Violence.
Never before have we hoaid of so
much liotous conduct and lawlessness
at an election us on the 2d November I
instant. From-.cvcry precinct in the
county wo he ir ol armed mob.-:, either
countenanced by United State .Mar
shals or Jed by them, Uucatching
voicrs aud driving them Iroin the
polls. Celored Democrats were bea
ten, and, in Some localities, (he man
agers of tlie election were beseiged,,
inlcrfeicd with and prevented by col
ored mobs from discharging their du
ties. Hundreds of colored men yelled I
about the rrounds like wild savages!
and reeklcs-ly ttrt-d their' guns in
every direction. More barbarous
scenes were never witnessed in I he
wilds of Africa than at some of the
election precincts in outh Carolina
on the 2d instant. Tim grounds about
the polls were not the only theatre of
such exhibitions, but the savages,
returning home after the coupling ol
Ihe voles, stoppetl in front of hones
where the wives and children of white
citizens were sleeping and cursed and
yelled and lircd guns and pistols until
the whole place was alarmed. Such
conduct amounts to crime and the
laws of Ihe state so declare it, and
every offender should bo arrested,
[tried and punished as the law in such
leases provides. Kveiy man and wo
man known to be guilly should be re
pelled and at once brought to an uc
counl. The pence of.I he county, the
safely of the citizen, ami the majesty
of the demand oiic'n a course.

The directors of tins Society met

the Association, was Ihe de:'lb claim
of Mrs. Lou Felder or Lower St. Mat

Tioasurer was ordered to pay over Ihe
whole amount to the heirs as soon as
the necessary legal preparation could
