But It appears that tho Rtulicul
poiia in South Carolina full iu flocks.
A lil lieul writer says :
"Whoa tbewlokad rale the land ueurnelb."
The trutlifuliicss ot this remark has
never been butter iliuntrutud, than in
the case ol South Carolina, from 18C5
to 1877. Tho editor of tho Philadel
phia Times, elaborates this sulyoet in
this way :
Whun wo rcail tno reports, now
dally filling tho columns ol tho South
Carolina papers, of arrests, imprison
ment and flight lrom juslico, wo can
easily understand why tho carpet bag
gers, who oneo governed that once
proud but long prostrate. Common
wealth, fought so desperately 'to pro
vent the restoration of bonest govern
ment Tho story of corruption in
South Carolina is fnmlliur to all In its
general features, but tbe country will
never know all its sickening details.
Piceo by piece, however, tho truth is
coming out, and every piceo brings the
rascality of tho dethroned carpet bag
gers into stronger light. To any thai
no northern Stnto would hnvo tolerated
these vampires for a single executive
or legislative term is to put tho case
mildly. Tweedism, with all its bin Jon
of guilt, never deueouded to such petty
navishness or involved bolder con
ceptions of organized crime. Now that
such words can be safely spoken it
mny be said, in all calmness, that bad
tho people of South Carolina risen in
blind fury and . rid themselves of tho
wbolo set by a iluy of bloody revolu
tion, history would bavo born un
answerable witness to their justifica
tion. No wonder that in the lust cam
paign they fought as for dear life, and
that ; when victory camo to them
through peaceful methods tho song of
thoir rejoicing was sung in worth, and
ways that seemed extravagant to
those who knew not bow great was
their deliverance.
"Tho carpet-buggers recognized the
hand-writing on tho wall in the Presi
dent's order removing the military
prop of tho t'liamborlain government.
At oneo tho exodus begun. Tho pro
text was the fear of political persecu
tion, but the sequel proves what every
body suspected, that tho cnuso was
fear of criminal prosecution. Nearly
every prominent member of the offico-
holding class in tho Republican party
of South Carolina is now in prison,
on bail, or fugitive from justice. Leslie,
the Land Commissioner, whoso rob
beries amounted to hundreds of thous
ands of dollars, first disappeared.
Whittcmoro, tho cadctship-brokcr and
head devil of legislative plundering,
sought a homo in Massachussutls.
Wright, s Justice of tho Supreme
Court, awaits trial on charge of drunk
enness and Ineompcntcncy, preferred
by members of bis own race. Carpen
ter, ex-Congressmen and cx-Rovcnuo
Collector, stands indicted for forgery.
Cardor.o, tho State Treasurer, who
made a fortune by dUcounting tbo
crcdit.of tho State, being arrested for
fraud, gave bail and has disappeared
from mortal vision to bo spocdily fol
lowed in flight by Llnyno, lute Sccre
tary of Stnto ; Gleavcs, ex-Lieutenant
Governor j Iloge, ex-Congrussman and
ox-Judgo ; Corbin tho present District
Attorney; Scott, ex-Governor, und a
dozen rogues of lesser nolo. Lee, ex
Clerk of tho Houso ; Montgomery,
Stnto Sonatorj Woodruff, cx-Clcrk of
tho Senate, and otbors, composing a
ringthatdraincd IhoSlato Treasury by
fraudulent pay certificates and print
ing claims, aro in tbo clutches of law.
And so tho list might bo extended and
moro than doubled in length. It is a
catalogue that would almost put the
Nowgato calendar to tbo blush, and
and yet theso men wore not long ago
filling tbo high places of the State,
and tho bayonets of tho United States
wcro used for months and years to
keep them there
"For once the cry of political perse
cution cannot bo raised to shield the
rascals from tho penalty of their
crimes. It is not nnon tho evidenco
of Democrats alono, or ot whito mon
alono, that they aro arraigned nt tbo
bar ol justice. It is tho old story the
thieves bavo fallen out. Men once
high in authority among them havo
crept out of tbo ruins ot the ring to
beg mercy on condition that their own
crimes bo not counted against them.
Stute's evidenco is a drug In tho mark
et at Columbia. Day after day Moses,
oneo tbo Governor and the robber
chief, is closeted with an Investigating
commiltco, making a confession that
covers years of villainy and implicating
another so-called Republican after
ovory clearing of bis throat. lie was
buainess-liko In his rascality and
seems to bavo kept a record of bis evil
deeds, with explanatory notes and
memoranda, so that documentary evi
denco is forthcoming most opportunely
to sustain bis rather puny affidavits.
hat tho end is to bo no ono knows,
but no cheering vision confronts tho
wretches at whose door lies tho rnio
ot South Carolina. Bomo seek in for
eign lands to lose their identity, somo
nit hither and thither over this broad
land, fancying each bush an officer ;
others with brazon faces onlor tho
doors of the Whito liouso and demand
that their crimes shall bo condoned,
and others again linger tremblingly
about the scones of their crime and
profligacy. Butallaco tho penitentiary
in their dreams, and that big stono
houso on tbo Congarco will yet bo
their abiding place for a time. Justice
has coma into her own ; law and order
once moro provail in South Carolina.
Tho losson is plain : Do who runs mny
read.
THE SEW PAKTY riiOI'OSEl).
It is plain from the action of labor
ing men ut dill'ercnt points that their
loader aro about to avail tliciniushcB
of tbo present ugitulion in regard to
wage to form a political parly made
up of woikingiiieu and aiming ut a
revolution In the relutions between eupl-
UftLasJ'i.'ilW. Ad'X'isivestej) was taken
meeting ol n pi-eseiitative n. nanics
adopted tho following resolution:
MVe earnestly rreororoer.it the erjcatiisallun of

Urst, the mutual protection of iabor; oooond,

third, tbe repeal ef all oppressive Uws almost

At Ciueinnuti on tho sumo day the
workingincn of Ohio, in inuus-mooting
assembled, nominated a State ticket,
and ut Columbus a liko ussembly de
nounced both tho Democratic and Re
publican parties bitterly. This notion
of forming a workingmeu's party is an
old one, but tho delusion has never be
fore bad such a fair prospect of tem
porary success as it now has, for tho
laboring classes aro discontented and
naturally look to political methods for
relief. Such a party tan hope for
nothing belter than temporary success,
and it can only triumph to tho general
detriment to tho community. Tho
proposed organization will bo bused
unon class distinctions, protons no
higher oliject than cluss interests, and
uppcul mainly to class prejudice; it
cannot therefore be a wise und etl'iietivo
political body. Tho vory idea of a
government involves the idea ol a pol
icy which shall muko for the good of
tho wholo country, und parties in
order to cluiin tho support of ull classes
of citizens, must deal with things
as alloc ting all. A man's daily nvoca
tion cannot have anything to do with
his judgment concerning what will bo
of advuntuge to the nation. Ho should
not look at politics as a carpenter or a
bluckHinilh or a stonecutter or a law
yer or a doctor, but as an American.
If tho class to which ho belongs suffers
any wrong, it can find tho readiest
means of redress through tho existing
parties whoso principles' ought to cover
every conceivable cuso of governmental
injustice or mismanagement, roruny
ono class even the farmers or laborers
to luke tho field against tho rest of
tho community is a piece of folly.

to think of tho loss of noblo lives and

THE VOTAUE OF CAPTAIN CUAI'O AND HIS
WIFE ACROSS THE ATLANTIC.
A correspondent of the London 7ni
y AVir at Penzance, speaking of tho
arrival ot that place of Capt. Crapo
and his wife, who left New Bedford on
Mny 2Hlb, in a small boat, says :
"Tho voyngo was commenced on
May 28, when tho vessel left Now
Bedford, but by Btress of weather sho
had to put into Chatham, Muss., whoro
sho stayed until tho 2d of Juno, when
tho sails wcro again hoisted and tho
littlo pigmy left on her perilous voy
ngo with a fair wind. All went Well
for three days, tho wind being south
west and the sea calm. The wind then
changed to southeast, and it camo on
foggy for four days, und continued fog
gy up to tho timo w hen they reached
tho Grand Banks, 17 days out. Hero
most fortunnto thing happened for
tho navigators. Tho drogno which
they bad brought with them wus
found to be of little use hecauso it
was too light. While off tho banks
they saw a keg floating, which luck
ily they wcro able to socuro. Capt.
Crapo knocked off tho iron hoops, und
witli somo canvas mado a new d rogue
which answered admirably. When it
was considered that at ono part of tho
voyago they wore obliged to lio to for
nearly throe days in a great galo of
wind, It will need no effort to imagine
what a fortunnto acquisition tbo new
droguo was. Alter leaving tho banks,
whoro they lay to in a galo for fif
toon hours, tbo Weather improved,
and thoy suilcd on until tho 21st of
Juno, when another gale was encoun
tered. Whilo lying to, tho Now Bed
foro spok tho itoamcr Balavia, from
which assislanco was offered, and the
oflor was mado to luko them on board,
which was pluckily declined. Altor
this incident they encountered a suc
cession of gules, tbo only wonder bo
ing that they survived to tell tho
story. During the voyage, which oc
cupied forty days, tho rudder broko,
but happily thcro was a sparo oar on
board, which was mod nntil tho first
could bo repaired. Tho seas wcro
running mountains high, and during
all that timo, oven when lying down
to rest, ibey had to lie In wet clothes.
On ono occasion tho Captain was for
seventy hours steering without relief,
the weather being so frightful, and on
another bo was eighteen hour con
secutively attending to tho drogue.
Captain Crapo says he could not havo
stood another fifteen days; indued, ho
had not slept for seventy hours whun
bo landed. Hi averago sleep while
coming across was under four hour a
day. Among tho many extraordinary
things connected with tho voyage is
that it had to be run by dead reckon
ing, a the Now Bedford was not
equal to a chronotnclor. Only on two
occaaions could they get their Inngi-
lessness, mid there by prudence, nntil
we send our ablest generals to the Iroiit
and our braggarts to the rear. What
do Sherman, and Sheriilun, and Mc
Dowell and tho rest, who boast a mili
tary record, think of Howard by this
lime? And what, if tho matter inter
ests him at all, does Secretary McCrary
intend to do about it? It is the coun
try w hich demands an answer. Hill-

The Price ok Pio Iron. The Pitts

for a series of years. It will bo notic

from 20, up to tGU, and then down

prico reached in 1872 was $55, lowest
838.50. Prices varied during that year
moro than others. In 1873 tho prico
began at HO, and at tho cljso of tbo
year was 82S. In 1874 tbo prico be
gan at $30, and in December stood nt
823 and closed al $21, reaching $2j In

effort was made in 1872 to bull the
price up to thut of 1801, but it stopped
Imps, be loo severe to say that there
was no fickleness, no imbecility, no in
ternational outrage, no financial dis
honor of which Mr. Matthews seems
ta have thought tho American people
incapable at this crisis, bul it has cer
tainly left us vory much in doubt
where he would 'druw tbo lino.' " And
tli its is tbo plain unvumishod truth.
Well, wo suspect that Stanley will see
that tho editor in question does not
"get in" on Hayes or into any of tho
Departments.
The Annoyed Secretary. Mr. Carl
iSchurz has now a chanco to put in an
other denial, unless porhaps his ill suc
cess with Kcinblo has given bim 0 dis-
liko for the business. Tbo Toledo Jour
nal states that in 1872 the Ohio Dom
ocrats pmd him $1,200 for stumping
tho Stnto. This Captuin Dugald Dal
gelly of politics soom to havo always
looked sharply after his "pay and pro-
vent," and novcr troubled his frugal
soul about whero tho money camo
lrom. In 1872 he stumped Hayes'
own district against tho Republican
ticket, and helped to defeat Hayes for
Congress. During tho samo campaign
ho stumped Indiana in Invor of Hend
ricks for Governor, and tho question
is, What did ho get paid for his ser
vices then? This distinguished soldier
of fortuno evidently carried unusual
habits of thrift into his campaigning

A Heavenly Vision. Thoso wcro
brnvo words of thj pious Garfield at
the Cleveland Convention : "In theso
days cif political cowardice the very
gods look down in admiration upon
tho man or tho party that has the
at $18.88 and has been on tho down courage to announce, and dares to run
grade over since. Our timber dealers
know exactly how tho thing, works.
Their cxperienco bus been similar to
that of tho iron manufacturers.
Limited to Speeches and Kxpknses
Carl Schurz, has been toning down
Hayes' civil servico order a little, so
far as his department is concerned.
Ho announces to his officials that they
may make occasional speeches, but ho
does not limit tho amount which they
may chnrgo for "expenses" in accord
ance with civil servico ideas. Some
guide in fixing tho rulo mny bo furnish
oil to them, however, by tho exposure
of the New York Republican commit
too of 18H, which paid Schiir $2,700
for cloven days servicos, after bo bad
consented to como for tho paymont of
his expenses. Mr Morgan, chairman
of tho committee, inlormod his associ
atcs, aflor this bill was presen tod and
paid, that Mr. Schurz was not a very
cheap man under tbo arrangomont
mado to pay his expenses, and ho did
not know that it would not have boon
cheaper to mako a defiuito arrange
ment for a fixed amount per spcoch.
Ilcsido tho information furnished by
Morgan, these gentlemen can further
onligbten themselves by addressing ox-
Stato Treasurer Kcinblo, of Phila
dolphin, who is personally acquainted
on this point.
N either. Tho Now York Sun says
"Praiso mo if you can ; damn mo if you
must ; but 1 beseech you not to ignoro
mo, oro tho words of an old author to
tho critics, in his preface. Hayes was
neither praised nor damned, but suffer-
oil the worst fato of all, in being Ignor
ed by tho Republican Convention of
tho Stato of Maine, in which Mr. Jim
lilaino played his part. Ono faction
desired to constiro llnyos and his Ad
ministration, and another faction tried
to procure their endorsement, but
Blaine had delormlned that tbey should
be pusaod by In contemptuous silence,
and be easily carried tbo Convention
with him amid uproarious excitement.
When a Nevada saloon keeper was
asked why ho wore a two ounce dia

limes, ho replied : "I uso It at night to
tnke my medicine by, and In limos

tho risk ol dying for tho sake of being
right." Garfield was relerring to tbo
platform, and especially to that part of
it which declares that tho government
should seize control of the "national
highway of trado," and regulate
charges for freight as well as wages
for employes. It was this noble part
of tbo platform which elicited tho fer
vid and eloquent words ot Garfield.
An Example. Governor Brock-
meycr of Missouri, when somebody
said to him, "You can't expect men
to work for a dollar a day," answered :
"Why not? When I camo to thiscoun-
try, a boy of eighteen, I worked as a
bootblack in tho streets of Now York.
Thirty years ago I worked in a lonn
dry for $3 a week, and saved my
money until I had enough to buy a
pioco of hind, and thon I was indopon-
lenU I should havo spent tho balance
of my bfo on this piece of land, but
was routed out of it by tho war."
