DEATH OF THE Rev. PAUL TRAPrER KEITH
The Rev. p T. Keith, the rector OF st. MICH
aels Church in this city, died at on early hour
on yesterday morning. He had been unoer
medical treatment for some days, but rallied
30 much on Friday last that his sudden death
was not expected.
Mr.. Keith was born on October 6, 1901, and
at the time Of his death was consequently in
his 67th year. He graduated at the Safe Uni
versity at Columbia in 1890. and went to New
York, where he continued his theological
studies. He returned to Charleston and was
ordained deacon and priest by the late Bishop
Bowen in 1899. He then became rector Of ALI
Saints Church, Georgetown, whence he remov-
ed to this city and became the assistant rector
OF st. Michael's Church. the Rev. Paul Trapier
then being rector. On the retirement of Mr.
Trapier from the active ministry, about twenty
years ago, Mr.. Keith became the rector of st.
Michael's Church, which charge he held at the
time Of his death.
The funer Al Of Mr. Keith will take place at
10 O'Clock this morning, and the services WILL
be performed by the Rev. Christian Hanckel,
D. D., who is the oldest Episcopal minister
now in the city.
at St. Michael's Church yesterday, the cele-
brant, the Rev. E. G. Edgerton, in the course
of his sermon spoke with great feeling of the
late MIR. Keith. He described the Invaluable
services and pure Christian life Of the deceas-
ed in such manner as to touch the feelings
and awaken the sympathies Of all his hearers.
The Rev. Mr.. Keith was well known in
Charleston and throughout the State, and was
universally respected. Throughout long ca
reer he labored assiduously and earnestly In
the cause Of the church, winning admiration
and regard from all denominations by the
rectitude of hls character and the spotless-
ness of his fame. MIR. Keith was q plain,
methodicaL conscientious aud pious man,
whose whole heart and soul, without outward

General BLAIR is. IF SEYMOUR proves
to be Incompetent to undertake the
terrible work, ne will be compelled to
stand aside for his unserupulous and
more reckless subordinate, who, what
ever may be his capacity, is already
noted for his radiealism and reyolu-
tionary tendencies. He will hes
itate at no iniquity, if it
promises to advance hisWa polit-
zeal fortunes. Perhaps there is no
man in the Government so well quail
fed, by a reckless disposition and
ungodly ambition. to undertake the
terrible work Of overthrowing the
laws of the country and attempt
ing to build upon their ruins an aris-
tocratic oligarchy, with himself at It's
head as military dictator.
Does not a careful reading of the
extracts we print this morning justify
us in the assumption that the designs
of BLAIR and his associates reach
thus far?

full progress of eysnts. We do not
think that the negro governments III
the South will attempt, by their own
power, to force their rule over tie
white population. Surprising that
this will be the course of things, the
white population will proceed to form
a constitution and elect State officers
and Representatives to Congress.
This can be done by the 4th of March
next. Upon each branch of Congress
then will devolve the responsibility
of determining which are the legiti-
mate governments of the Southern
States, the negro government or the
white mans government. This
determination can be sought and
be obtained before any con-
test is made In the Southern States at
all, as to these Governments. We
know how it will be determined in
Congress. The late protest by the
Democratic members of Congress in
the House of Representatives against
the admission of the carpet-baggers
from Arkansas. clearly indicates the
course of the House of Representa-
tives under Democratic control. The
white mans representatives will be
| admitted. In the Senate it will be
different; but a Democratic Exec
utive will certainly regard the action
| Of the House of Representatives as
the controlling authority to deter
mine his duty. If, after this, any
I - 1n. - &lr1- -I,oo -
any of the Southern States, he will
recognize the white mans Govern
ment as entitled to his support by his
Intervention, if any is required.
But let us suppose that the negro
| governments shall lawlessly endeaVoI
to prevent the peaceable assemblies OF
the white population to reorganize
| their government-what then? The
white population is amply sufficient
to protect themselves. All that they
want is that the Goyernmet of the
United States shall stand aloof. Il
the negroes are fools enough to at.
tempt by their power to establish
their supremacy over the white race
in the Southern States, they can try
it, but the trial will not likely las.

In the JOURNAL. of yesterday, we
copied a report of a speech delivered
by the pirate SEMMEs, at the SEYMOUR
and BLAIR ratification meeting in
Mobile. This morning we print, for
the second time, the letter of General
BLAIR to Mr.. BROADHEAD, which Sc
cured BLAIR's nomination at New
York. In connection Herewith we copy
from various Southern papers articles
and extracts from speeches, showing
what the people of that section think
of the Democratic nominations, and
why they are SO enthusiastic in their
support.
General BLAIR announces very en-
phatieally, in his letter, that the only
issue in the present political cam
paign is, in substance, the abrogation
or notification of all the reconstruc-
ton acts of Congress, and the restor-
alton Of the rebel States to their
former status in the Government,
even should the President have to
employ the army of tn e United States
to secure that object. In other words,
that the only issue before the people
is the election of q protested civilian,
who will assume dictatorial powers,
trampling the legislative department
of the Government under his feet, and
use the army and navy in accomplish
ing his nefarious purposes. and the
choosing for their Chief Executive
a mar who has seen enough of war,
is, and always has been, obedient to
the laws of the land, and whose high
est aspirations now are for peace.
This is the only issue. The Tariff,
Revenue and Financial questions are
all secondary to this great question.
With SEYMOUR and BLAIR as the
first and second officers in the Gov
eminent, and the United States Sen
ate and House of Representatives Re-
publican. as they undoubtedly must
be, war will be inaugurated, and the
old battle Of secessionor States Rights
fought over again.
1t will not do, after the bitter ex-
perience Of the past eight years, to
disregard Mr.. BLAIR's threats, as in
offensive bravado, only enunciated
for partisan purposes. That his let
ter to Mr. BRoADHEAD was not mean
ingless, is amply demonstrated by the
incorporation Of its revolutionary
sentiment into the Democratic plat
form, and the yet more recent publi-
cation Of his letter accepting the nom
nation for Vice President. That the
South will hold him and Mr.. SEY-
MouR to a strict accountability for
the fulhllment of their profess
sions, in this particular. in
case they are elected, all who are
familiar with the politicians in that
section of the country cannot for a
moment, doubt. Hence, it will he
well for all who have any interest n
preserving the peace Of the copntrv
to be cautious how they east the;r
suffrages. The motto of the Repnb.
lican candidate is, let us have peace .
The rally cry Of the Democracy, as put
forth by their chosen leader, is revo-
luton and war, with all their attend
ant horrors.
