The Saarbrucken Affair.
LONDON, Aug. 3.-The following is the Prus-
sian account of the affair at Saarbrucken:-
''The Notifications at this place (Saarbrucken)
were attacked by column of French infantry
yesterday evening and the troops repulsed."
saarbruck, or Saarbrucken, the scene of the
first determined encounter between the two
armies, is situated forty miles 8. s. E. of Treves,
and three miles from the French border, on the
river Saar, a stream rising in the Vosges Noun
tans and joining the Moselle near Treves. The
Saar is crossed by a stone bridge at the town, by
which 1t is connected with its suburb st. Johann.
The population is about 9000 The town was
founded in the tenth century, was given by the
Emperor Henry Ill to the Church of Metz, and
subsequently governed by its own Counts until
1880, when it came by marriage into the family
of Nassau. 1t was afterwards fortified and suf-
fered much during the wars which have been
waged in its neighborhood. In 1876 1t was
almost entirely destroyed by fire, and its fortif-
cations dismantled SO that it has but little stra-
tegic Importance, the Notifications taken by the
French being merely of q temporary character.

 some of the parties who wsss placediR the lookup on Tuesday, we're found to have mysteriously disappeared during the night, and it. is supposed by many that the gentlemen felt so small over their arrest, that they collapsed themselves into about the thickness of small roll of grean- backs and disappeared through the grated windows of the prison. Sheriff Hotch- kiss is endeavoring to work up the myste- ry, and we hope he will succeed. About c dozen gave bonds in the sum of $500 each, and were thereby released from duranCe vile in lawful manner. A promising at- torneY, imported from New York for the occasion, was present at court, and at- tempted to show Judge Pardee that the bail of his honorable clients should be fixed at lower figure than the sum named, and stated to the court that he knew these gen. tlemen, that they were friends of his (the attorney), and that if the bail should be fixed as low as one dollar, they had too much honor not to appear for trial when wanted. The Judge took different view of the matter, and the nonplussed attor. ney took his seat, undoubtedly impressed with the fact that there was some differ. ence between Connecticut justice and that meted out at the Tombs in New York.

The Coming Contest.

The ono great weapon to be weld
cd in the coming contest with Soutl
Carolina Radicalism is-a policy OF
tho present and future; liberal
broad and progr essive policy adapted
to the wants and conditions Of the
| times.
The details of this policy-the
platform of the South Carolina De.
mocracy in the State elections
not be defined at this time. 1t is i'm.
portant, however, to declare at once
what are the points to be insisted on,
that we may begin the canvass with
hope, carry it on with confidence, and
crown its close with tidings Of great
joy.
Il. The Democracy Of South Carroll
ma must look to tho present and future,
and not to the past. They must sub
NIT to the inevitable necessities of
the political situation having. how
over, no part or Fellowship, upon any
terms, with South Carolina Radical
ism.
2. The civil and political equality
Of the colorod people with the white
race, undor the laws of the State and
tho United States, must be frankly
admitted and acknowledged.
3. The declaration should be reit.
Grated that what reforms We need
must be obtained by constitutional
means and agencies alone.
4. And to the people Of South Ca
rolina, white and colored, should be
made this simple statement: We
come before you as the party of JUS
tice and equal rights, as the party Of
honest government and low taxation.
We come before you pledged to repre-.
sent equally and faithfully every
class of people, to encourage and
protect every interest, to admit no
monopoly and to put down class legis-
lation, to maintain the State credit
and faithfully pay every dollar of her
just debts.
This is promising no moro than we
can and will perform. It gives to the
colored people as much as they have,
as much as they arc entitled to, all
they expoct; it holds the white peo-
pie firmly together and it unites the
whites and tho blacks in the common
cause of good government and oppo.
sition to Radical corruption Charles

Universal Negro Suffrage.
The fifteenth amendment reou;

The fifteenth amendment requires
now only the vote of Georgia or Texas
in order to be proclaimed an article
of the federal constitution, "the su-
preme law Of the land" Within a
week or two we expect this proclama-
tion will be made. What then2 The
amendment declares that neither the
United States ror any State shall
make any abridgment of the right of
suffrage on account Of race, color or
previous condition Of servitude; and
it further provides that Congress shall
have the power to enforce this thing
by appropriate legislation. The States
of Delaware, Maryland and Ken
tucky, therefore, in tho next elections
will have to admit the right of tho
negro to vote, which they have here
tofore denied him; and if they fail to
do it Congress will interpose. And
SO with any one of the States.
The democrats have resisted this
amendment to the last ditch, and on
the ground That it gives to Congress
the power to regulate the machinery
VI our clectiOuS Ill uIl INC SCaI0a. w @
hold that it simply gives Congress the
power to en- 'orce the equal rights Of
the colored race in any case where a
State may refuse to grant or fail to
enforce them. This, of course, may
involve iii certain cases nn overhaul
ing by Congress of the State election
machinery; but we do not suppose
that the amendment will be construed
for Instance, as turning over to Con-
guess the management Of the polls Of
this city from the sachems Of Tam
many Hall, unless they exclude Pom
pey from the ballot box.
It follows that the policy adopted
by the old line democrats of Virginia
and elsewhere down South-the poll
cy of reorganBing the negro and cul-
tivating him as political ally--is the
only course now left for the demo-
Gratis in all the other States, and the
sooner the Tammany fSegeney act
upon the idea the better it will be- for
them and their candidate for the next
Presidency; for negro suffrage is fixed
and there will be no getting Mound it..

Death Of Judge HBOOzer.

We arc gricvcd to be compelled to
announce to our readers, says the
Ph"nir, the death, on Sunday even
| ing last, Of Hon. Lcmucl Boozer,
Judge of the Fifth Circuit of tho
Court of Common Pleas and General
Sessions, while holding court in Cam
den. A good citizen, ar intelligent
lawyer, capable and impartial Judge,
the great destroyer, in striking him
down, has subjected the whole State
to mournful calamity, covering all
the people with gloom. Although
Republican in politics. we thank God
that, in the sterling vigor of his moral
constitution, he was able to lift his
mind far above the murky region of
party politics, in the administration of
the great office of Judge, and to
keep his judicial robe folded around
him pure and unspotted even unto
death. What solace this conscious
ness must have been to him, as ali
mortal hopes and aspirations were
passing forever away! Judge Boozer's
mind was not brilliant, but his judg.
ment was sound and, although his
learning may not have been so varied
and attractive as that of some others
of tho legal profession, yet upon the
Bench he was found to be fully equal
to the high tasks Of his position, and,
after argument, capable of clear dis
crimination and correct decision. The
qualities, too, of patience, courf ,sy
and mercy emincntly adorned him as
a Judge, whilst the social elements Of
his character enlivcncd his compam-
ions and made him acceptable Oh all
occasions. 1t must, indeed, be very
grateful to tho feelings of his friends
of the Columbia Bar, now that the
grave has interviewed between him and
them, to remember how thoroughly he
had won their kindcst consideration
and how suitably they expressed it to
him at tho close Of laboroius extra
term of his Court, in this place, in
August last. Judge Boozer was
native South Carolinian, having been
born in Lexington District, in 1903,
as We are informed; was educated at
the South Carolina College, in thc
time of tho presidency of the late
venerable DR.. Cooper entered upon
tho practice of law, in the village of
Lexington, about the year 1882; and
for sevorol torms represented the peo-
pie Of Lexington in the General AS
sembly, first rs member of the
House OF Representatives, and then
In the Senate of the State. If we
may refer, with propriety, at all, to
his recent political relations, we may
record the fact that lie was elected,
with great unanimity, by the Rcpubli-
can party, in 1868, to the Office of
Lieutenant-G overnor, and, under the
constitution, became, er o0icio, Prcsi-
dent of the Senate, over which body
he presided with eht ire acceptability
and success. The hearta of his sur
viving family and friends, and of q
stricken people, are weighed down
with sorrow, but arc comforted in
the reflection that above the gloom
of the grave shines the Light of pure
and honest life.

to him in reference TO this particular,
but Obtained no satisfactory answer,
