agitation, or at least that is all that has been
noticed by these not in the circle, among that
portion Of the Radical Ring Of Charleston
which the native Radicals would style the Mas
sachusetts-ites, but who are more famlliarly
known as the party composed OF men who, ia
their hurry to rush into the South, had only
time t, pack their carpet-bags. For all that
the outsiders koow. there may have been and IL
terrible rushing of political winds in that
body of the Radical camp; but an agitation. as
we have said, has been noticed, and floating
about are various rumors, which TIE NEWS
gives to the public for what they are orth.
GOVERNOR SCOTT TO BE BUCHRED
Is the substance OF the 6rst rumor, and it
states that the said body of Radicals are already
getting up the sia5e for the State election In
October, 1870. On 1t the names of DR.. A. G..
Mackey, late Collector OF this port, and F. J.
| Moses. Jr., Speaker of the House of Represen-
tatives, are written, the first for Governor, Ind
| the latter for Lieutenant Governor. To pre-.
| vent Governor Scott from running, he will be
given stick of candy in the shape of q nomi
nation for United States Senator to amuse
himself with. The party intend to elect the
two persons first named, all the while pretend
ing to be pushing the interests Of Scott as SEN
ator. So soon as DR.. NJ. and MIR. Moses are
elected, the former will be nominated for the
senatorship, and will be elected. Hs prefering
the latter to the Governors position, will re-
| sign as Governor aud 20 to the Senate-Moses,
the choice OF this faction, then, Of course, be-
coming Governor. Governor Scott will then go
home.
THE THIRD PARTY.
The second ,rumor has it that this same
| laboring faction = may it not bring forth O
mouse?- lis fdlsning third party. the object of
which is at the next State election to kick out
Of Office, and, il possible, out OF the Radical
ranks, Governor Scott, Parker. State aTreasu-
rer; Jillson, Educational man, and other per-
SONS OF like character. whom the sAld faction
| term disreputable, and to place in office more
reputable men, such q those headed by Atto1-
ney-General d. 81. Chamberlain. The Third
Partyites assert that they have promises of ad-
| heston to their policy from all parts OF the
State, and that some of the prominent men of
Charleston express their Willingness to go into
it, aud they (the "Third's") state that all tnat
they need to carry out their policy is inaction
on the part Of the conservative white people
previous to tho election.
PEEP AT THE MACHINERY.
The excitement which that little matter be-
tween MIR. Clark and DR.. Mackey, regarding
the Collectorship Of this port, when they were
IN Washiugton,l and in tho Presidents scales
first one and then the other. kicking The beam
created here among those who, weres in the
stomhouse Offices and did not want to 60 out,
and those who were out but wanted to get in,
has. .iq q measure subsidized by the announce
ment that Clark had received the appointment:
still; everything is of interest that relates to
that time when men were weighed down by
official CAGES. Or cares for Office, and .one, per-
ished by the aoay-slde.
One day when Hro -.,.. .-.:sl:,e tho oan;
rants and an even balance was au that had
been obtained, telegram from F. j. Moses,
Jr.. arrived, requesting the President not to
decide upon the appointment until his letter
could be received, and stating that every Re-
publican in the State was in favor OF Mackey
being retained and all were opposed to CLARK.
Grant tookna long Whit from Havana,
doubtless presented by one of Clarks friends,
who anticipates being sent Oh o foreign mis-
sion for his remembrance, and spoke thusly to
said friend: 81 can't appoint Clark, for here's
the Speaker Of the House Of Represen, atives
assures me that every Republican III the State
is opposed TO Clark and in favor Of MackeY."
