prohibiting any army oficer in any manner in
t~erfering with il, and prohibiting the presence Of
soldiers in the vicinity of the polling places.
The working men Of Charleston adopted az
address to their fellow citizens, and nominated
Wade Hampton for Governor. In their address
they express the belief that the destruction Of
slavery will ultimately prove u great benefit to
all the people OF the State, and especially 10 the
working man, as il will tend to free him from
the monopolizstion OF capitalists, AID dignity
labor.
The hostile attitude toward each other in some
parts of South Carolina, of the whites and blacks
10 represented as assuming a phase threatening
serious results unless the difficulties be speedily
adjusted. Especially is this the case along por-
tons OF the coast upon the Sea Island where the
negroes have been established on the abandoned
plantations subject to the control of the officers
OF the Freedmen's Bureau. The planters who.
now that the rebellion has been crushed, are
anxious To gain possession OF their lands, ellege
that the freedmen are allowing them TO 90 to
ruin, do not raise enough for their own support,
are totally neglecting preparations for next years
crop and refuse to give up possession to the
whites. Caroiinians are considerably incensed
against the Freedmen's Bureau officials. whom
theJ charge with encouraging negroes in their az
sumpsions. Il is principally with the object of

have heretofore snnaunced. that Gen. Howard,
Commissioner OF the Freeiman's Bureau, is now
