In our military life, ne have had .
good deal to- do with Winfield Gsott's
tactics. These wSye she tsctics ofsa col,

to deal with the tsscticssof another. soota

swindler. Our community in Co,imbia
are aware Of the course pursued by
SCOTT toward the only white organization
In this city-Capt. O'Neale's company.
1AeyIwete long ago. disarmed. although
the i oolored, companies retained their
arms, and have them pow, and occasion,
ally parade our streets in oil the pride
and pomp of mimic war. It will be
seen, from tie following notice, that the
rifle clubs Of peaceful Charleston have
been ordered by 'his Excellency" to
give mp their arms. This is the order:
HEADo's SourH CAROLINA MmrT1A,
ADJ'T AND INsP'R GENERALS OFFICE,
COLUMBIA, Jan. 6, 1872.
Special Order No. I. eSW
The following organizations in the city
OF Charleston, g. O.. will, on receipt OF
this order, turn over all arms, equip.
ments and ammunition, belonging to the
State. now in their. possession, to Col. w.
N. Taft. First Regiment N. G. 8. O.
By order Of his Exoeuenoy the Go

Adjotant and Inspector General 8. q.
We suppose that the vile Ohio adven-
turer idistrusts the white man. s'Oan't
trus dc white man no mo, he must take
de oaf." We advise the clubs quietly to
give up the State arms, and, with equal
oomplacenoy, to provide Themselves with
guns and ammunition of their own. If
Scott & Go. take the money Of the tax
paying portion of our people to arm the
colored militia, and further denies the
arms to white organizations, the outrage
stands out in bold relief. But the reme-
dy is plain. Let the whites provide
themselves with arms. We admit that
We have in Sour oastle' at least. twenty
five shots. and we admit, farther, that if
SCOTT & 90. ever bring about collision
between the white and colored people,
we shall take occasion to suggest that
the tall poppies shall first be cut down.
Our motto will be to spare the coIored
tools and not to spare the white and
black chiefs. If this now be treason.
make the most of it. but II it be reason
also. make the most of it. There is a
point beyond which .forbearanoe ceases
to be virtue, and let SCOTT & 90. under
stand that they may GO beyond that
point.

AskInS shs Most Of It's Opporsunittee--
- eK1 Kluxlsm Made 20 Pay.
We hsve frequently fastened upon the
1Hiepes' Own and Granraa O,on+-the
Unton here-its large share 5of the re-
sponsibility that attaches to Il for its In
famous part in bringing upon South
Carolina Grants troops. and all the ma
terial damage that has resulted to us
from the military proceedings carried
out in this State. It hos made oil the
money it could out. OF the State printing,
and the Indications are that ills .slice of
the pie has not been small one. But
it has, further, made all the money it
could out Of the Ku Klux trials. The
fact Of the matter is: This is precisely
what these people are at. They are after
the money, and, after filing their pock-
eta. they expect to go elsewhere with
their ill-gotten gains. No sooner had
the Ku Klux trials been provided for,
than the Union advertised freely that it
would publish full reports Of the trials,
and it called upon the people of the
State to subscribe to it at the start.
These people not only abuse and injure
the whites of the State, but they further
call upon the whites to pay the expenses
and, we arc sorry to add. that in too
many cases they do it. Here, for in
stance, the Union has Dragged OF the
support it gels from advertisers, and yet
it has inflicted blow after blow upon the
interests of Columbia But to 30 on.
After the Ku Klux trials are einaugurated,
the Union publishes uer5atim reports,
and, as we were informed, got, by some
arrangement, eight cents per line from
the United States Government. and yet
it has had the audacity to claim that it
was its private capital and enterprise
that had undertaken this work. But
this ID not all It is to make more money
yet. We learn. that it has secured
copyright Of the Ku Klux proceedings,
and thus it will make Ku Kluxism more
valuable yet. We observe. for instance,
that Hurley. has offered resolution to
authorize the furnishing each member of
the. House twenty-five copies. in pam
phlet form, Of the official proceedings Of
the late Ku Klux trials held in this oIty.
We suppose some ."loyal" Senator will
do the same for the Senate. Thus we
are to have the State saddled with the
heavy expenses attendant upon furnish
ing each member Of the Legislature with
twenty-five copies Of the voluminous
proceedings of the Ku Klux trials. We
submit that Tim. Hurley would have
been doing the State far more service if
he were to get the Legislature to distr-
butte his own book on the robberies and
rascalities OF the State officials. In this
way, come veal, come woe, the Union
must make money out OF Ku Kln1ism to
the last. If Ku Kluxism has not paid
the State, it has been fine pecuniary
investment for the Union newspaper.

New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1872-05-30

After two weeks severe travail, it ap-
pears that James F. Casey was safely de-
ivered of letter resigning the collector
ship. Parent, sponsors and accouchers all
doing well as could be expected under the
circumstances. Now comes the tug of
war for the succession. Internal Revenue
Collector Stockdale has gone, nominally to
the Philadelphia convention, but really to
Washington, where, backed by Senator
Kellogg, he will make long pull and a
strong pull for poor Casey's vacated hon
ors and emoluments. John Ray has been
summoned to the seat of the great dis
penser of good things to relate his past
services 'for Grant and tell what he will
do in the future if the much coveted prize
is awarded to him. Our genial, but
hitherto unsuccessful friend, of the Citi-
zen's Guard, Colonel George W. Carter, is
said to be not above accepting the chief
seat in the granite temple, and several
other of the patriots who yesterday, despite
former nishaps, so resoluteIy set their faces
eastward, will not unlikely be soon found
hanging on to usher Dents military
button-hole in the White House ante
chamber. If Grant would only send for
Leet, the 'talkative blonde, he could
soon gain lucid idea of the political
situation here, and what he must do to be
saved, thus economizing to the pilgrims
much in hotel bills and wearing suspense.
For our part, we suspect that Brother
in-law Casey is in no immediate danger
of losing his pleasant quarters. That
"perplexity" Of the President to pick out
satisfactory" successor, of which the
telegraph informs us, is not to be soon dis
PEELED. Grant differs entirely from Artemus
Ward in his readiness to sacrifice his wife's
relations.
