~ [For the- Watchman and Southrcn]
I Sr. Editor t^tb? attitude-assumed by the
Senate in removing, w ithoul an assigned rea
'-?06,-0? esteemed fellow-townsman, Capt. L.
P. lx>riu.g, to make room for Capt. W. R.
Delgar, has caused much dissatisfaction
among the people of this County. Got.
Thompson, to the joj of the whole people,
entered the GoTernor's Office on the Civil
Service platform, proclaiming in his inaugu
ral address that "he bad no friends to reward,
no enemies to revenge, and no private ends to
accomplish," and h* called upon the General
Assembly to sui'tam him in earn ing oat this
policy of action while the lease of power was
consigned to their management. He' there>
fore re-appointed the same men whom h
ecessor, Gor. Hagcod bad appo injed during
i hit term of office, and it^raa^mi^enr?, unless
objection* could be brought against any of
th?t'lbey ihould continue to Bit their
tiyewppointments during his term of
also. Bruce it ? unmistakably plain that
Cant. Loring went cot of office, not by limita
tion, bot on account of some objection by the
Senate in regard to hi* incompetency to dis
charge the requiremeots of the office to which
Got. Thompson re appointed htm. Dsd Capt.
Loring prove an inefficient Auditor? Let us
look at the factsi_m his case.. He succeeded
Mr. Charit? Spcocer who,owing;to ill health,
left the doties of Ahe Auditor's office very
mach behimi, and in consequence of which
Capt. Lor ing had not only* to discharge the
dulie* of "the office for the day which was
passing over his bead, bat be was compelled
to employ additional help to assist b'm ia
ctoffcg^he accumulated duties of Mr. Spen>
^ r. * tie apple-pie order in which the preseo t
iajcambent found tbe Auditor's office, is the
bestv|woof of the efficient aod satisfactory
manner in which Capt Loring discharged
not only hfs own duties, bat those of Mr.
Spencer. Therefore when we take into con
sideration the circumstances under which
Capt- -Loring entered upon the duties of the
Auditor*! office, the manner in which he
attended to the most trifling details of the
<*Sace, and the heavy endorsement he received j
fOTre^ppoictment, not only by the citizens
of this county, bnt by some of. the most influ
ential men of t be State, it doer look a little
hard that he should have received an invita
tio? from the Governor by the authority of
the Senate, without an assigned reason, to
step out, hat in hand, for the sake of
another.
Now, Mr. Editor, I have not the slightest
objection to Capt. Delgar? forsooth if be
Were in Capt. Loring's shoes the same princi
ple and arguments would bold: good. Nor
do ! any the Senate did not have the best of i
reasons for removing Capt. Loring from j
other, hat whatever tic objection is, yet re. ]
mains at profound a secret as the password of j
ia Masonic Lodge is to the uninitiated, and as
loos'as it remains on revealed, it will be a
sufficient cause for murmurs of dissatisfaction
by the friends of Capt. Loring.
Dissatisfaction among tlie Democrats of
Strmter County in 1384 wilt divide us, and we
are solemnly assured in Script ore that a house
divided against itself cannot stand. Emphati
cally the Democratic party is a party of the pro
man who belongs to it U the
peer of any otber: man, no matter whether he
ho rich or poor, high or low. There are no
boatei, no dictators, no autocrats This is
where it differs from the Republican party,,
the members of which are lead by the nose by
their lenders: In the Democratic party the
wish #;f the people most- he t be wish of the
repreaea tat ives, and, c 'by the. Eternal,*7 their
v?Z must be paramount and sot subordinate
to any set of leaders. * *
r The best evidence that this 6 rand Republic
of onrs is destined to shine, for its political
wisdom, as a bright example in the galaxy of |
the conn tries of this earth is, that tlie hum
blest of the-people will not be afraid and con
sider it a sin to discuss, in public print, the
acts of their Representatives, and holding this
view, Mr. Editor, of pabHc officers, I cannot j
let the impropriety in asking onr Senator to
state in public print for the satisfaction of
Capt. Loring's friends, ihe reason of his re
moval from office.
It it true Capt. Delgar took an active part
ia the campaign, and helped the cause, while ]
Capt. Loring was scarcely ever seen at any of
onr meetings, hot bit neutrality in the last
campaign do** cot prove, that he "loved Casar
less bat Rome more"?for at that time he was
busily engaged in setting the Auditor's office
to rights. A ad it is, alto, equally tree that
the same tide of public favor which buoyed
Col. Earle to the position be now enjoys, was
swelled by as many of Capt. Loring's friends
at by the friends of Capt. Delgar.

The Sumter Appointments
Governor Thompson's Course?The Rejections
kg tin Senate?Sew Appointment?? Who is to
Blame?
Columbia Correspondence News and Courier.
CoumatA, January 0.?At the recent ses
sion of t be Legislature the Senate ret used to con
firm a number of appointments made by Gov
ernor Thompson for certain offices in Sumter
County, the rejected appointees being the
county auditor aud four trial justices. On
January 2, the Governor made new ?ppoint- i
tnents for offices left vacant by the refusal of j
the Senate to confirm the appointments first'
made by aim. Why the Senate refused to con
firm the appointments first made is a Sena ton
al secret. ?o far as the public know there was
certainly no reason why tbeincumbentsof these
offices should have been removed. No charges
of dishonesty or incompetently were brought
against them; no such charges could bare
been made, tor there is abundant proof- that
the officers rejected by the Senate were
thoroughly honest and efficient and had dis
charged all their duties to the satisfaction of
the public., Mr. Loring', the county auditor,
was strongly endorsed for reappointment by
comptroller-Generals Bratton and Stoney, and
a number of pipers are do won file in Columbia
to show that Trial Justice Richardson was one
of the best trial justices in the State, and that
Mr. H. L. Pinckney and the other officers re
jected by the Senate were equally frusta orthy
and efficient.
In filling offices within his gift the Gov
ernor bas retained incumbents, except for
cause shown, whose desire to be rtappoioted
was known to bim. Re Iks not knowingly
departed from this rule. If he bas done so
in any case it has been from ignorance as to
the facts, but not from inadvertence, as in
every case such investigation as was possible
was made. Doubtless many incumbents de
sired to be retained in office who were debarred
from applying for reappointment by the fact
that they had submitted their claims to the j
judgment of a county convention or there-'
suit of a primary election, and had t*en de- !
feated. So far as is known no man thus de- j
feated applied for appointment. In Sumter \
County the delegation recommeuded .the ap- :
pointmentof new men to fill certain offices in
which tbe incumbents, so far as we know had j
discharged their duties efficiently. Acting upon j
a rule which be has adopted and follow ing a i
principle which he believed to be correct, tbe j
Governor reappoinied tbe incumbents. Some
of these nominations were rejected by the Sen
ate. According to law these offices must be t??ltd
by the Governor "by and with the advice and ,
consent of tbe Senate " For the Governor to j
hare reappointed men whom the Senate bad i
refused to confirm would have been a refusal j
on his part to accept the advice and consent j
of the Senate, which by taw, he is bound to |
respect. In appointing to vacant offices the
Governor followed the suggestions of the del
egations from the various conn ties. In the'
case of the new appointments made for Sumter .
Couaty, no complaints were presented to the '
Governor of which he could take notice.
There hat been and still is considerable,
fueling in Sumter County about the removal!
of the old incumbents of the offices named, j
hot no blame can he attached rightfully to the !
Governor. He should not be the scape-goat [
for tbe sins of the fcoate, if tins the Senate-j
have commit fed. The Senate having rejected !
's first appoint men ts, the Senat? {

An Explanation.
The delicate, flowery and lasting fragrance
of Floreston Cologne explain why it is such a
favorite with the ladies.
Why Should They.
No man or woman can do satisfactory work
when the brain is dull, the nerves unsteady,
the system relaxed and they feel generally
wretcbed. Why should anybody drag through
their work in this condition, when a bottle of
Parker's Ginger Tonic will, at moderate cost
give them the strength and will to perform
their duties satisfactorily. -
