tauntcd and yelled at Traupman as lie mounted

in tho neighborhood Of the place Of execution at
an early hour. The scatfOld was erected during
the night on the Place de Ia Eaquette. Before
daybreak Wednesday, Hcidenrcch, the Official
eXecutioner, tested the scatrold, fastened the az

which characterized him during his trial. His
hands were tied behind his back, 4 short chain

taken to the scailold, the steps OF which he as

embracing the priest, he cried out in loud

Radical Extravaganza.

We print this morning full abstract OF
the speech of Mr.. Dawes, delivered in Con-
gress on Tuesday. Mr.. Dawes has had the
courage to tell the plain truth; but if he per-
severe, he must break with his party. Or
Mr.. Dawes, the journal Of Commerce says:
''From such man in such place Truth is
precious indeed. The Democrats may howl
till they split the mighty dome of the capitol
against the extravaganza Of the Federal Gov
crnmcnt, but they will have no more effect on
Radical representatives and the Radical party
than on the cold marble statues that decorate
the pile. But when the Radical Mr.. Dawes. OF
Massachusetts, stands up with the documents
10 prove every word that he says, and inficts
the faithful wounds Of a friend upon the eN-
travagance of the administration. Radical ears
arc pricked up to hear him, and he is not to
be cried down and his damaging statements
disposed of with q Podsnap wave OF the hand
The pocket nerve is touched, and the enc
OF Radicalism is nigh!
The Charleston daily news. [volume] (Charleston, S.C.) 1865-1873, 1870-01-24

and which they can trust. They want work,
fair wages, justice, protection, equal rights
all that Radicalism will not give. With the
bold opponents OF Radicalism they arelikely
to 60, and, if they do not, no alliance of de-
graded natives and greedy carpet-baggers
can either catch or hold them. The third
class is already on our side 1t is the class
which, but for the supineness and eflemi-
macy OF our own white people, would have
defeated the Pillsbury Ring at the last
Charleston elections. The respectable COL
ored people did their whole duty. The whites
did not.
Where, then, is the boasted strength OF the
mongrel co-operationists? We answer that
it has no strength, no power, no force. BY
promises OF Governorships, or Lieutenant
Governorships, or Attorney-G -Generalships, or
seats in Congress- or with the bait OF social
recognition, it might gain the votes OF a few
hundred renegades and adventures; but
beyond this, nothing! The movement WOULD
on the other hand, certainly encounter the
hearty scorn and hatred Of thousands oil
white men and thousands Of colored men,
who know the difference between right and
wrong, and had rather be defeated in a
stand-up fight than support, directly or indi-
rectly, Radical robbery and corruption.
Nongrelism, hybridism, coalition-call it
what you willis a mockery and snare.
We want but two parties in South Carolina.
One, the Radical party-the party of tyran-
ny, of ignorance, OF extravaganza, OF op-
pressive taxation, OF nepotism and fraud.
The other, the party of free trade, free
speech and free press, of personal liberty, OF
evcn-handed justice, Of equal rights, OF eco
nomical government, and low taxation.
These are the issues OF the day, and our peo-
ple know it. They have made up their
minds; and will fight Radicalism, unceas-
ingly and untiringly, until it be vanquished
and undone.

LESLIE says that he was offered $1,000 to
support certain claim, and that lie scorned
the proposal. Does the senator remember
that when he was asked, little while ago,
to support the formation Of new county,
he said frankly: 'Iou know it will take money
to carry it through What did this mean,
unless that somebody was to be bought ?
And who? The virtuous senator will please
