Proclamation by tho Governor. 49,.
II is rumored,! though wo can
scarcely credit it, that several promi-
ncnt Republicans have demonstrated
with Scott upon his latc ineendiary
speech III Columbia, aud have ex-
presse' their opinion that he has lost
the usual opportunity given by
Grants election, to have harmonized
thc entire State by wisdom and node
ration, so soon as the bitterness of
keen disappointment had subsidized in
the minds of tho whites. Scott is said
to- be thoroughly ashamed of himself,
and being more Of man than some
suppose him intends to mako an
amende. The reporter of the Winnsbo-
no News "has had an interview" with
Governor Scott, and gives us the text
of proclamation that lie proposes to
issue shortly.
"M herenS information has reached
me that the laborers in certain por-
tions of tho State have unreasonable
and extravagant notions of the good
to come to them, and that very soon,
from tho land commission, which land
commission Is an experiment requiring
series Of yoars for its trial, and
which will surely prove failure, un-
less tho whole body of laborors con.
tinuo pationt, faithful and steady at
their work and whereas wicked and
designing men arc encouraging COM
binations among tho laborers to their
own hurt, urging them to demand IN.

from their employers, which the par

qncnt scarcity, and the great distress
of the planters, render it their poli.
cy,as we'll as puts it into their power
to refuse, SO that such combinations
can only result in great delay with

heavy"loss to all concerned +: Now,
therefore, 1,Robert X. SCOTT, Govern
or of South Carolina, issue this my
proclamation, in the name of tho
State of South Carolina, urging all

as he was leaving tho room, several
