Race difficulties became frequent to d?e
fieid. At WU in June, tlx negroes, accused of
Uie mutdfr of t o whites, were aeiiod by an
arrncd baud of white men, evidently well or
pinUeJ. aud utioL They were made to taee the
force, and every man, at the word of command,
rmptiii the eoateut of bi can into their bo

the;n u Uutler, drove up the ttreet iu a burj-y,
and instead of t aniiutr aide demand i that the
militia ehouid irive way. After aoiae liietlcc

Butler had calculated well. The affair stirred
np tbe pavions of the races. The atraurht-out
orr.ma holrtly defended tt. Every firewater de.
fended it. They rauirht at the ehane. Country

upon to rally to the anpinrtof Heneral V. C.

made to throttle him. r.(ral Gary strove to
eni:a:re him in a duel. Mr. Rhstt alo tritl to
fiVrt upon him an ail'air of honor. Both were
thwarted. but at the expense ot much influence to
the editor, as a withdrawal from a duel is still
rors'dcred cowardly end detrradinc in South
Carolina. The organization of Democratic
clubs, rifle eompstiie. and momited cornjiaiiies
were rapidly bcL'un. Theiirc-eaVrs induced all
the younir men to Join them, and send to Coven
try thoi who would not. The call on the Presi
dent lortr.Kip by the Governor, though abso
lutely juMiiicd by Hamburi. waa alM uicd to
stir up animosity. The State liemocratin Con

The convention dually met on the Kith of

Ntores of wliibr Repubifcan are hurryisi; iu
alarm to the uewapaier oftT-sss to insert cards in
w hlch they renoan'f their party and profess
conversion to Democracy. If these men ban?
back and refuse or neeleet to join tbe precinct
club or the nearest military company, their con
duct is reported to the township ineetlur;. A
cotnmit'ee is appointed to request an explana
tion. They call on the suspected man at, their
earliest convenience. If he lie seusible he will
submit profuse apolnjies-and rejrrets, and hur
riedly take up his rihe and follow them tothe
drill-room. Three or four white circuit judires
have been dratrooned into conformity, aud the

If a white man refii? to join Uie precinct
club; if a white manrs loyalty to the party is
susia-etcd ; if a whito Republican perei. ts in r(i
opinions, he is spctteti, nr-irked, doomed. He ia
scowled at if he' walks at-road. If ho passes a
crowd of loitering whites at a street corner an
ottiinoua fcilence falls on tbem till he Is out of
hearinr. No warn-in IT is triven him.- No
nijrht viIta are now paid or Knklux nissives
despatched. The whiles have found by bitter
experience tbst such thlnira arc bonmerautrs,
which return with tenfold force to in.ture the
thrower. They manage the matter better now.
They wait till an obnoxious man whom they
have doomed as a victim chances to stand or
pass near them, say on the pahlic pus re, at the
post oiiii-e, in a bar-room, on the street. A
crowd of white desperadoes will cluster near
him or follow him. They apintar to bo drunk,
and bein to quarrel over some silly matter
havinir nothing to do with po'i'ic. Several
bystanders ccme up and ta'ie sides. Family
biows are erchan;td, pistols drawn, and a
rcul.tr Iree f-ht occurs. SiioU are tired
by all the. party. Yet. tlnmtre to siy, when
or ler is restored, it is foand that not cn of the
corahatants is injure.!, whUe the ior Kt publi
can haa been struck by s "veral ran.kxa shots and
killed. An account of the aib-ay ap;carsiu the

this way, but sham fights ar a'rantt-d by white
rudians on some non-political prctease, which
swell to the proportion f riois, aud in which
several Rcpuhii -tn bystanders are killed by
chance shots, w hile none of the combatants are
hurt. Of course, the authors of these deeds po
utipunLheil. In the lira place, it is biipOsihle

any one to indict anybody about it, or for the

THE MlsSI-m-PI TlX.
I now find myself carried back to the time of
secession. Then no Southerner duel avow
Union ren'.linen:. Ta-in lio-ro were thousands
of them hi the Sottth, but tney were ruthlessly
atibjected to a system of terrori-m, and had to
choose betwivn conformity and almost certain
death : and with hardly an exception they con
formed. To-dav th -re are thousands of whites
forced in'o this Confederate revivafaminst their
judtnnent and inclination ; but they must con
form or take the consequent. They conform,
and then, to avoid th? Papulation of Itikcwarai
ness, they endeavor to prove their sincerity by
outdoing their comrades in violence. The same
men head this movement who led the Slate
into secession. They have thoroujhly revived
the policy of intimidation. Talk of the
blacks beins; intimidated ! It is throuirh the In
tiniidition of the w i.i tea that thcintimidation of
the black is rendered poss pile. The election is
to be caniud on the -Mississippi plan ; and a part
of the plan, tc it rcmeiohfrod, was the imimida
ti"n of tlie whites. Wade llaiiiototi ii as much
a Misdssippian as a South Caroliuian. It is true
that he is descended from Carolinians famous
In the Revolution, that bis anec.nors have al
ways lived in this Stale, that he himself is a
citbten of this Stall, end that the fa "ily home
stead is in the city of Columbia. i!ut besides
the immense estate he owned in South Carolina
before the war, he had vast demesnes ia Missis
sippi and other Southern States. This will not
seem snrpjisintr w h-n I meution the fact he pos
sessed tsj.is.Hl aerea of land in fee simple, and
ow ned 4,iX-0 slaves. Noiv the war took from him
the bull: of his property. B it so milch remained
alter al! Lis lo-v-a t.'ial he is at this day the
wealthiest man lu the soutueru Slates. Most of
his property now, however, is in Mississippi,
lie has abandoned by far the lurfrer part of his
ancestral estates In South Carolina. Thoutrh
h's home Is iu Colutnbis. he spends half bis time
on his o'antations in Mi-sis-ippi. He has one
plantation thee on which H) of his former
slaves are employed, so well has he been ablo to
keep up this old-piatitation plan while the euiall
iann system has b. n iKcoiuiutr well nijrh uni
versal." The fact 1 d-ire to cull attention to is
this: Hampton was ia Mississippi prior to the
laet electioa there, w hich the Democrats carried
by the sho'.srnn p'dicy. The s.nii'.aiity of the
met hods empiojed by the Ue.nrr.-niis in tbe can
vass iroinp on here uow, with Hampton as their
leader, forces me to the conclusion that tao ex
periment is to be repeated here.

rltoston Transcript.
The ways of Southern politics, In some re
spects clear enough, are still past rinding out.
South Carolina is a Republican State by a ma
jority of many thousands, but the declaration
has pone forth "that the Democrats are to take
possession after this year, and the small traders
end poor laborers have taken the alarm. The
adverti'lu? columns of the daily Democratic
papers show how the alarm is manifested. The
Charleston Jwn-nal of Conwimrre, R. Barnwell
Khett, Jr., editor, contains tho follow-in? :
A Card Until. Fcrtiikb Noricii I will
receive applications from those seeking employ
ment, on Monoats, Wednesdays, and Fri
pavs, and ord -rs f-om employers for Straight
out lVrnot-ratlc Workinginen, on Ttesdats,
'Tafrts-ntT-r; and-Satct.dats. I am prepared
to furnish Democrats with Democratic labor at
raa'onable wages, to any extent at a moment's
notice. To employ Republicans and starve
Democrats no lonper pays. It Is a crime, and
wbl be held to strict aceountaMlitv.
" It. K. TitAms,
"75 Broad street."
To understand the effect of an aiinoun'-etnent
of this kind, it must ! remembered that the
creat majority of Republicans era laborers, and
the tr.a'ority of Democrats are employers of
I.ihor, in some form or other. Such a notice as
this is. therefore, on apiw-al to the-teitrs of those
who are dcpendeiit on tlieir daily earnings, and
would rather chantye their politics than lose
them. It is also a threat against those who re
fit e to surrender. Here is another notice of
th same kind :
' To Orn Mrtrtrn tsTS, Wn snr Owsttrs, aitd
TBturMi:x GttxEr.Ai.i.v : The Workingmeu's
Democratic Assoeiiitton are cotv prepared to
furnish from one hundred to two hundred able
bodied men for any kind of work. Apply at,
their hnll. la-en street, near meeting, from 9

This nioditird form of intimidation Is cr.rrifd
into the varions branches of retail trade.

Sur. iy tire rrd.ng white race, "the natur.d

less fortunate foil iw-citizsns. If tho tuarkrt

It has fre;tteiii.ly been said that no Northern
Democrat, a-.er voting 1 r such a uiil, will lie
Mi ta cotne before his constituency. Is that
true .' Don't we see thiinrs hich, under orui
nary circumstances, would be deemed Increrii

create an unsound atid uuiwt.iotic puhiic senti

Democrat will have the least chance for th
V-residency or We rreddency tthlaia he efCoy
the decided favor of the Southern Democracy.
What will be tho. consequence, of this I .Why,
It is evident. Every Northern Congress
man who thicks. that there is some Presi
dential stuff in him, that a Presidential
lUrbtnin may strike him some time, will be very
much inclined to do that which will be surest
to train him the fa7orot his Southern brethren.
So it la evident that not only a few hot a Urge
number of Northern Democrats, hnitHed by
their ambition, and, I am sorry to ray, also im
pelled by one of those impulses tiiat sems to be
indigenous to tbe Democratic mind by the influ
ence of subserviency to Southern dictation, will
vote for just such bills as have been laid before
you by Republican speakers. So I believe that
a Democratic Administration will, by the very
necessities of the ease, he one ol the most ex
travagant Administrattous thi country ever
had. . There U still anoiher reason why this will
be so. She Southern people, being the prepon
derating power in the councils of the Dtmo
cratie lurry, will also dictate Its financial poli
cy. The Southern people stand now, comrared
with us. In the josition of p-wr relations.
In other words, they, being comparatively
poor, an- the North comparatively rich, the
North wiil pay the great mass of taxes and the
South wiil pay comparatively little. The n-cej-sary
consequence is that those who pay very
little don't feel the burden of an extravagant
Government, and will, therefore, always be. in
favor of spending as muc h money as possible.
Tou have an illustration of this in the city of
New York. A very large number of your voters
are non-tax payers, a minority of your voters
are wealthy tax payers ; the non-tax payers do
not are a snap of their hugera how nmch
money is spent by the- city frovernrh.jnt, and,
therefore, you Lav always a lavi h. adminis
tration. Ia not that so f " Then the seme rela
tion will be borne by the South to the North
as to onr national councils, and, the-efore, I
repeat, it ia by the very necessity of the case
that a Democratic Adin!nktrat1on. governed as
it must be by Southern influence, w iil be a mast
extravagant one. Applause.

There is still one other thine I would call
yonr attention to, and that ia the question of
national peace. 1 00 not mean to repeat w hat
I 6aid of my action with regard to the South-un
reoplo, and the impulse of generosity which I
have always foil owe. I. Oi course 1 did that
with the exiectat:on that satislactory response
would be elicited from the other side. We gave
them back their rights with a lavish hand ; we
gave them buck their rii-ht-s so shortly after the
lelv Uioa that 1 can only repeat w hat 1 have said
before, that the peneros-ty of the American
people ha never been e.uatll by any other
nation in the world in that respect. We did it
with the just expectation, or at i-st the reason
able expectation, thut the Southern jople, re
ceiving their rights at our hand, miu'ht be
counted upon to restwet also tha rights of
otieri. 1 am sorry to say that, that
expectation has been In a great measure di ap
pointed. When you look at the State of South
Carolina you will not deny that the sana
tion ot things is exceedingly serious. I am the
very last man iu thecountry whowo-tld apt rove
of the presence of trooj in the neighborhood
of the ballot-box, aud I would stand by to the
last in the endnavor to secure to every man the
right to vote uniuiiueiiced by force of any Kind.
But, as things now stand, if the United States
troops, ar withdrawn we are pretty sure to have
another armed force In Its place, and thut Is the
rifle clubs of the South Carolina Reform Democ
racy. I believe in reform, gentlemen, but I do
not believe in the reform of the rifle and the re
volver in the hands of a terrorist. Now, then,
they may succeed i0"ibly In subjugating Ro
puhlicau majorities, but one thing I look upon
as perfectly sure we have come to the settle
ment of the questions srowicg out of th war
by debating certain Constitutional provisions.
These Constitutional provisions msv, for the
time being, be overridden iu this or that Slate,
but If the attempt is made which I look lor
almost as inevitu.de in the event of a Demo
cratic victory if the attempt is made to nullity
them in tbe whole exteui of tiie Southern
country, I am sure that the loyal people of tiie
United States of America w IU not submit to it.
Arsyiause.
If the attempt be mad upon such an Issue
between the North and tlie South, the solid
South on one side will tind a solid North on the
other side ; and liberal and gf ncrous as I may
be when the question is be tween a solid North
and a solid South, I am on the "Ho of the North
all the time. Applause. I am on the ride of
the North, not because 1 happen to live here,
but because 1 believe that the North contains
the intellectual as well as th moral vitality of
the American Republic as It is no'V constituted.
Now, gentlemen, looking ut the attcmis that
are being made in the South, can anybody doubt
that Ibey would be rreatly encouraged by a
victory of the Democratic party ! lam sorry 1
am obliged to r.y if , but siill that party stat'de
in the politics of the country as a ccntiuual
tiireat of reaction agaiust the resull: of the war ;
and it is ray conviction at the prcs-i;t moment
that the candidates of the lb publican unrty are
not only the best, but they are the only instru
ments by which the true inv rests of tbe Ameri
can iople can be promoted. Applause.

Demanded by tho
South.
It baa frequently been said by Deraocrats that
in the question ot Southern claims there It no
thing but a mere partisan cry. Gentlemen, it m
my sober conviction t hat there i nmc h in tt, and
I wiil tell you why I believe to. 1 ut 3ot-t h ha
been impoverished by the war. and in cenvcrsav
turn with Southern men myself 1 have found this
to be their idea. : Vow of theNoith have coo
trolled the Government alone since the war ;
you have taken out of the public treasu-y
millions of dollars to subsidize teainboa; lines.
Ton have praaated away millions of acre lor
railroads to establish your l.oes of cotna.ui.ka
tioiu You have spnit untold autus of tr-oDcy on
internal Improvements, an I w hile you did this
we in the South were exposed to ail The ravatra
of the w ar, aad out of which we have come in an
impoverished condition. Now, thev ay there -a
nothing laimr in the world than that we olnui.d
have tlte same advantages, so as to getev u.
Gentlemen, you converse, with almost every
southern man oa this sul ject. and if he does rot
tell you this before election, he will b candid
eiionch to say so after, if the Democratic csn
didate is elected. What does that mean! W
have discovered in the course of time that ti e
policy of granting railroad grants and subsidis
ing this and that private enterprise waa exert 1
liiu'ly costly, without conferring a corresponding
punlic beue.'it. Therefor, thai policy ha to a
great extent been abandoned ; but I "predict in
case of a Democratic victory tliat that policy
will Le renewed and carried on to a more extra
vagant extent by that party when it become
the controlling power. 1 "hat Is oue point. Tha
second point is this : While 1 was lu the Senate,
aud ever since, a large number of bills were In
troducsd there aiming at thi! refunding of the
cotton tax. Vou are all aware that duri.ig the
war we paid hundreds upon hundreds of mil
lions of taxes lor tne purpose of kteping our
Government alive and ourarcuesgoing. We did
that, having been forced ir. to a war by the ret el
Slates, a war that cost 50C.0OO precious lives
and thousands of millions of dollars. Durlr-g
that whole time the South contributed altacst
nothing to the public treasury. There is
only one considerable tiem . tf tax t! at
was levied uja.a the Southern ptnpie,
and that was the cotton tax, some sivtv
eitht mililon dollars or o.er. Now they da
mind a restitution, of .that taT. as it is pro
posed by some, niit to the iildividuaia by whora
the tax was paid, but to the southern States as
such. I am a man of very generous dispositk n
with regard to the Souta. 1 thought that wan
the war was clwd the Southern peoplu who
had been In rcvo't would again bti-ome peace
able and law-ahiiiiiur citizens, and that gearr--ity
was not only a duty, but an act of u i.-d. -a
and justice. And so 1 have beeu one of the Brst
to advocate a policy of general amnesty and of
the complete r-moval of all those political v&
bi'l'ira which in consequence of the rebi'idjja
had been imposed upon a.larve nutib-'r of
Southern peopie. In gentra) I ailvc-itTd a r..
Ucy of generosity and reconeilia'iou : I am Will
ing to be as generous to them as anybody, but
when, after having forced ua into so terrible a
war a war that came near destroying the e-y
life of this "treat Republic a war that has cove- -1
thelatt l with mourning, and put e'l h teTtih!
burdi ni upou om po; le '.t hen, after such a
war, having contributed this iitu mite to tlte
sustenance ot" thia trrcat fabric of lur icstitu:!. r,
t hey demand that w e should refund every cent
of ft, I think it is a Utile too much. And yet
yon are coolly asked you. the posscssois of tiie
ilifh of this coantre to v-v. your baud' :; .o
yonr pockets so that ii.S,(Xnj.lj be tiven ba. k
I tell you, gentlsiuen, that it i my honest ecn
viction, should too Democratic p-.rty come it. to
power again, they will Inevitably return to ti e
South every cent of iLat money sv'a'eh w.ts cca
tributed to the National Treasury ia the cotton
