New York city
ia 53 969. Tnese
figures show that bis solid frauds at
home, equal his solid frauds in the
Southern States.
A Tildes reformer, in Saint Louis,
named Frost, was trying to steal into
Congress by means of a fraudulently
obtained return, but the Court orderei
the scoundrelly officials to make a
true return of the rotes, and Frost
mourns at home w hile a Republican
takes the seat.
While Xortb Carolina is counted
for Tilden, the evidence that sbe was
carried for bim by most shameless
frauds is said to be conclusive. The
Republican committee have accumu
lated testimony to prove the roost
gigantic frauds in twenty three coun
ties, and that the State was stolen for
"Tilden and Reform." In some of
the precincts the Democratic majori
ty majority mind you as larger
fhan thi trhole tabulation of the
irecinct.
Florida is for Hayes despito the
Democratic raisiDg and doctoring ot
the returns. The Hayes electors
have forty two majority on the face
ot the returns, without throwing out
a single fraudulent vote, as is certi
fied to by the clerks of the Returning
Hoard. When the returns are silted
and the fraudulent vote is thrown
out, the Republican majority will be
largely increased, as tbe Hoard has
ample and conclusive proof of nu
merous Democratic frauds.
This gives Hayes ITT electoral
voVee sure, and before going to press
we expect to have the official an
nouncement that the 8 votes of Lou
isiana are also bis, thus securing his
election beyond all cavil.
It is now an open secret, that tbe
Struggle of tbe Confederates in South
Carolina to obtain control of the
Legislature, and seat Wt.de Hamp
ton as Governor, was wiib tbe pur
pose of having a new Returning
Hoard, of the Democratic rebel per
suasion appointed, who would certify
that the Tilden electors in that State
bad a majority, and thus two certifi
cates from one State being sent to
tbe U. S. Senate, would give the
Democrats in Congress when they
were opened the opportunity on
which they have been building, to in
sist that neither of the candidates
having a clear majority of the votes
as returned, the House has the right
to elect the President.
Nothing but the promptness of
President Grant in furnishing Gov
ernor Chamberlain with troops, pre
vented tbe armed rifle clubs under
the lead of Hampton from seizing
upon tbe Legislature and carrying
out this revolutionary scheme.
Being assured that the Louisiana
Returning Board w ill be compelled,
ia the honest discbarge of its duty,
to certify that the Hayes electors
have fairly carried that State, the
committee of Northern Democratic
Ma teamen wbo nave been in atten
dance watching tbe count of tbe vote,
Lave attempted to forestall public
opinion, by announcing ia advance of
tbe decision of tbe Board, that Til
den has a majority in tbe State.
This is a dirty trick, and an outrage
opon the members of the Board to
whose courtesy they were indebted
for the privilege of being present dur
ing their sessions, but it is of a
piece with tbe conduct of tho.e
Democratic leaders who professing
to go to Louisiana as impartial judges,
made np and telegraphed tbeir opin
ions before the Board had assembled.
This transparent attempt to 6care thei
Board, and to usurp its functions.
will ia no way effect the judgment of
honest man, and is intended simplr to
give Democratic partisans tbe pre-
text for continuing the bowl of fraud!

DrKj.sa tbe pitiful recital of her
wrongs by Eiixa Pinkston, before tbe
Louisiana Returning Board, Ex Gov.
Talmer, of Illinois wbo was in at
tendance as a member of the Deoio
crauc eommhtee leaped from his
chair, and said ia wrath, "If this
story be false, those that prepared it
for this poor woman should be haog-
ed, bnt if, as I firmly fcetiei e, it is
true, tbe wretches wbo can perpe
trate ach atrocities should be ele
vated without mercy. I will spend
$10,000 to ferret out this case. It
looks trae. This poor woman has

ebe baa told tte truth, beridan

with a grip of tro a people who can
see such infamy without remon
strance even in their public prints."
And yet, the democratic party
through iu newspapers attemp a w
deny this woman's testimony on tbe
oet flimsy pretexts; sustains witb-
oat a blush tbe men wbo are respoa-1 State Legislator. With the eertifi

to numbers of murders, whippings
and other outrages inflicted npon
colored Republican voters that came
within his own knowledge, as com
commandant of the U. S. troops sta
tioned in the "bull-dozed" parishes.
The tidal wave which it was
boasted was to carry Tilden into the
Presidential chair, was evidently
manufactured to order, but was a
little too weak to effect its contem
plated purpose.
Tbe Southern States where tbe
Confederates control the entire ma
chinery, were 6afely counted npon to
overwhelm, by their fraudulent vote,
tbe Northern Republican States.
Tbe way had been previously
prepared by systematic pro
scription of tbe voters, black and
white, fur opinion's sake, by social os
tracism, by suppression of Republi
can newspapers, by murderous threats
oaJ oaths, and by the organization of
armed military clubs, that patrolled
and terorized tbe community. In
three States alone bad tbe Republi
cans tbe lightest chance, and in
there, I.ouit-ima, South Carolina and
Florida, partial protection was afford
ed simply through the fact, that all
tbeM? had Republican Governors. It
was a tidal wave of organized fraud
that was 60 confidently couoted upon
to elect Tilden, and but for the firm
ness of these three Governors, it
would have overwhelmed tbe honest
"ote of the country.
RErriELT, considered one of tbe
most reliable correspondents in the
country, in bis dispatch from New
Orleans to the Cincinnati Covuu-crcial,
under date of Nov. 30tb, says;
Tbe cae is now considered as vir
tually closed, and the distinguished
attendants will start borne in a few
days. Senator Sherman thinks he
may possibly remain until Saturday,
but not longer.
From tbe best ioforma.ion 1 can
get. tbe board will count in the en
tire State and National Republican
ticket by from 230 to 1.T00 majority.
Tbey will reach this result by throw
ing out precincts in bull-dozed par
ishes, and at other points where gross
intimidation has been proved by di
reel testimony.
Tbe more Ouachita parbib ia jn
ventilated the more horrors come to
light There were four well organ
ized rifle dabs in that parish, as tbe
testimony proves, and not less than a
duzen Republicans killed, most of
them aspamsinated, and many others
wounded. Tbe charge of tbe Re
publicans that rbtrc was .a reign of
terror in that parioh is foxpletely
sustained by sworn testimony and by
army officers there.
Tbe other bull-dozed parishes are
not so bad ; that is, there has been
less murder, but tbe evidence proves
that the reiun of terror was sufficient
for the purposes for which it was
brought about
Over two thousand pages of sworn
testimony have been taken as to the
five parishes, and tbe facts of mur
der, whippings, and intimidation are
fully set out, with details and specifi
cations. J'nless tbe Democrats over
throw'tbis by counter testimony they
cannot sustain their rase at tbe bar
of public opinion.
Shtu Carolina for many yearst
has been in a state of semi-rebellion
against the general Government ex
cept only wbeo ber arrogant politi
cians 'ere permitted to hav Lheir
owe eweet will.
The ojip.n announcement of An
drew Jacisoa that be wonld hang
tbe Democratic leacUrj higher than
Haaian, if they persisted ia Uteir re
bellions eotiTte, alone prevented their
attempt to defy lie Federal power
during bis administration. Her Dem
ocratic leaders were tbe first to go
into rebellion in 1SC0 Cl.and tbe first
open act of war, the firing upon
Sumter, occurred upon ber boil, and
now, scarcely rehabitated with the
rights tbey forfeited by their rebel
lion, tbey are attempting to tofttrol
tbe Slate by armed riolenc?, and
tbns force a defeated member of
their party into tbe Presidency, while
tieir allies in the North as tbey did
during tie rebellion are giving tbem
aid and comfort, by suppressing tbe
truth and filling the land with lying
tales and rumors. Tbe following we
believe to be a true condensation of
tbe late proceedings ia that State and
of tbe present situation:
In pursuance of tbe duties im
posed upon them by law the Sooth
Carolina Returning Board met on
tbe 10'h Nor'or the purpose of can
vassing tbe vote of tiu .State, and of
bluing certificates of election p tbe
successful Presidential Electors, mem
bers of Coogress and members of tbe
tbe rgbt of canvassing that vote b!i
longing to the Legislature.
JUth !!.- .r iu;. l. .k

electing ibeir own candidates. Tbey j
found ia two of the Judges, MoseB .
i - e r
personal comity vu ,uuiwuui, m-
cause tbe latter bad thrown bis cor
rupt son out of office, and both being
active supporters of Hampton, tbe
Democratic candidato for Governor.
These Judges at cnee lent themselves
to a most infamous defiance of tbe
law, with a view to ousting the Re
turning Board and usurping iu power
for themselves. Their first step was
an order that tbe Board should ag
gregate the. face of the return for
Electors, and report the result to tbe
Court Outregeous as the order was,
the Board complied, and reported to
tbe Court showing all the Hayes
Electors to be chosen.
But tbe Democrats, dissatisfied
with this result, now changed their
base, and demanded an order from
tbe Court tbat tbe Board should jo
behind the face of the rtturt,s and
tbrow out certain Republican major
ities, thus counting in tbe Tilden
Electors. Tbe Court took this under
consideration.
In tbe meantime the Court, ccn-
viLced that tbe Democrats bad at
least carried the Legislature on tbe
face of tbe returns, issued another
order tbat tbe Board should count
the full vote returned, and Usue cer
tificates of election to such members
of tbe Legislature as tbey showed to
bars a majority. Ia tbis instance,
be it noticed, tbey do sot want to go
behind tbe face of the returns, be
cause they think tbe Democrats have
fixed things np without it
But, pending the Court's delibera
tion over this last order, important
events bad transpired. xne iaw
limited tbe evistence of the Board to
ten days, exclusive of Sunday's in
tbat time tbey must finish their work
after iu expiration they would
have no legal powers. Tbis limita
tion was close at band, and there
was no order of the Court before
them restricting tbeir action in any
wise. Tbey therefore proceeded to
canvass the vote for members of the
Legislature, threw out Laurens and
Edgarfield Counties, issued their cer
tificates of election, and adjourned.
When the new order of tbe Court,
above mentioned, issued, the Board
was no longer in existence. Usurp
ing, therefore, as the course of tbe
Court was. tbe Board bad not, in a
single instance, disobeyed it
We pause, here, briefly to note tbe
reasons w hich impelled tbe Board to
throw out Edgefield and Laurens
Counties. Tber were border coun
ties, tbe scenes of outrageous vio
lence by tbe Wnite-Liners. Of tbe
three canvassers In each county two
were Republicans and one a Demo
crat Tbe counties bad always been
Republican by very heavy majorities.
Tbe White-Liners compelled two of
tbe Republican canvassers to flee for
their lives. Tbey then stuffed the
ballot-boxes to suit themselves, and
compelled tbe remaining canvassers,
under peril of their lives, to sign re
returns showing Democratic majori
ties. But tbe Republican canvassers,
faithful to their trust sent to tbe
Boarl affidaviu of these 'acts, and,
of course, no choice was left bnt to
throw out the counties. The subse
quent proceedings of tbe usurping
Court are fresh in mind. Tbe mem
bers of tbe Returning Board were
arrested for contempt, and imprisoned.
Tbey were taken out on application
for a writ of habeas corpus to a
United Sutes Court, and the case i
yet nndewcided.
Tbia brings as up to tbe assembling
of the Legislature oa Tuesday of
last week. Tbe bloodthirsty and
armed White-Liners, from 6,000 to
10,000 strong, were gathered at tbe
capitol to carry things by force,
Governor Chamberlain, who is tbe
Governor of tbe State now (what
ever tJie result of the election), and
remains so, pnder tbe Constitution,
until his successor i inaugurated, ap
plied to tbe United States govern
ment for assistance to maintaia tbe
peace. Tbe President with bis usual
wisdom and firmness, at once issued
tb ceo,uvred order, and tbe 300 Fed
eral troops at Columbia were placed
at the disposal of ibe governor of
South Carolina. Tbeir d spoEJ
about tbe Capitol has undoubtedly
prevented scenes of tbe greatest hor
ror and bjoodshed.
Tbe throwing put of Lau-ns and
Edgefield Counties (enti o nine
Representatives) left 1 lb members &
tbe lower Houbo, of whom tbe Ba
pubcsps nave 60 and tbe Democrats
i5. F'nding mselres in he mi
nority, and thus Muafifi to count
Hampton ia j(the Republicans bay p
majority in tbe Senate even if the
two counties were admitted,) tbe
Democrau determined upon revolu
tion. Tbey tnerefore copied the
mandamu$ of the Supreme Court
the one which never reached tbe
Board) and, together with the Demo
cratic candidates frop Laurens and
Edgfleld, demanded adaijua.ac.4 to
tbe 8tate-boue, presenting the copies
of tbe mjndamitt as certificates of
election. The Laurens and Edfc-e
field claimanta were of coarse rejec
ted, whereupon all tbe Democrau
went wiU them, read a buncombe
protest, and proceeded, jn a ball of
tbe city, to organize a "rp-"
House.
lo tbe Saoata the Democrau clun
to tbeir seau, and that body was
regularly organized, and a Republi
can President elected. In tbe House
the Republican members, bearing
proper certificates, assembled.. Tbe
Clerk called the roll, showing 59
members present. Tbe Constitution
declares that "a majority of he Mem
bers" shall be a Quorum. The re-

Sente theD recognized ibe House.
and tbo Legislature adjourned me
organization was regular, complete
and unavailable.
Tbe point upon which tbe Demo
crau propose to bang is tbis, to-wit:
Tbat the majority of 11 j was not "a
majority of the members,'' inasmuch
as it should bave been aa trajori;y of
124 (counting in tbe 9 members from
Laurens and Edgefield). But tbis
point has been repeatedly adjudi
cated both in Congress and iu the
State. Where members and districts j
are excluded, tbey are not considered
in tbe basis from which a quorum is
estimated.
On tbe succeeding day Wednesday,
tbe House assembled and the Com
mittee oj the elections appointed &t
the first day's cession reported in
favor of seating the five Republican
candidates from Barnwell county on
tbegrcund of fraud, violence, and
intimidations. Tbe addition of these
five votes gives tbe Republicans in
tbe llouce sixty five votes a clear
majority even if 124 be declared a
full House. On Thursday the Dem
ocratic managers, fiuding
thev were!
making a bad mistake ia attempting
to keep up a bogus IIou.sc of Repre
sentatives, made a new move. The
whole bady of Democratic members
marched into the fall of tbe State
bouse an hour before the regular
time of meeting, and organized, with
Gen. Wallace in the chair as Speak
er. Tbe Republicans caoii in an
hour after, and Speaker Mackey
took his place beside Wallace, wbi'e
the Clerk caiied tbe roll.. Both par
ties continued in session, each fear
ing to adjourn, as the vote of Gev
ernor was to be counted in joint ms
sion at noon. Wallace was outiGed
from Gen. Ruger during tbe after
noon that persons wbo did not bold
certificates cf election from the 15 uard
of Canvassers would not be permit
ted on tbe floor next day. Tbe
Democrats wire badly demoralized
by this, and sent a long letter of pro
test to the General. At 9 o'clock at
night tbe Hall of Representatives
presented a moot disgraceful scene,
and a serious riot seemed to tLreaten.
The Democrats were extremely vk
len. in tbeir speeches.
On Monday, as will be seen, by
later dispatches, tbe Democrats find
ing that tbey would be ejected by a
force of State constables organized
for tbat purpose by Governor Cham
berlain, surrendered possession cf lie
House. And thus stands matters as
far as we yet bare received mfur:ui

Washinoiox, December 4. Tte
interest of tbe public ia tbe opening

great as tbat iu tbe House, though
tbe galleries were well filled before
noon. Many Democratic Senators
were io tbeir seats before the b.idy
wascalled to order, but tbe Republi
can Senators, being in caucus, did
not occupy their seats till a few min
utes before twelve. A change in tbe
arrangement of desks to accommo
date tbe new Seuai 4 from Colorado,
and to give Senator wbo occupied
seats under the galU.y more desira
ble ones, was made by placing three
desks upon either side of tbe fourth
or last platform. Tbe seats on the
Republican side were assigned to
Messrs. Blaine and Chaffee aud Tel
ler, tbe ne colored Seuaiors, and
on the Democratic side to Mr. Price,
tbe new Senator from West Virginia,
Mr. Jones, of Florida, aud Mr. Ran
dolph, of N(?w Jersey.
When tbe Seuale was called to or
der tbe new members were sworu in,
and the two from Colarado drew for
tbeir resective terms. Mr Chaffee
secured tbe long term, ending March
4, 1879, and Mr. Teller the short
term, ending 1577.

Tbe opening ot Ibo session .of tbe
House was w itnessed by au immen.-e
concourse of spectators. There were
very few members abseut. Tbe
Speaker's chair was draped iu mourn
ing iu respect to the memory of tbo
late Speaker Kerr. Tbero beijg,
therefore, no presiding officer, the
House was called to order at uoou by
Clerk Adams, wbo thereupon called

right of the member elect from Colo
rado to have bis ntiue placed on the
roll, so tbat be might participate, in
tbe election of a Sjteaktr, and sent
up the efediiuaals of lbs Colorado

gauizaliou of the House was ueceasa
rily ibe first busiuess iu order, w nde
Mr. Bauks aud oiber Reiiubbcans
contended that all memoers bave a
right to participate iu the elec'.iou.
Mr. Frye claimed the outue right
for his Colleague elected iu place of

Fiually the Clerk decided that the
resolution offered by Mr. lljlunu

up for action, and it was adopted
without opposition. It was as fol
lows: Tbe House being informed that

wbo at tbe commencement ot the
piesent Congress was elected speak
