Speeches by the Bigwigs, who Promise
ali Manner OF Pretty Things
The Radical Regulars had an lmpromptu
merry.making in Columbia on Wednesday
night. The following paragraphs are taken
from the Unions report:
After music by Thompson's band, General
Elliott Introduced Hon. F. ]. Noses, Jr., as
unquesllonably the Governor elect Of South
Carolina. General Moses, OF -Suaking bis ap-
pearance, was loudly cheered. He stated that
s gave him pleasure TO appear before the Re-
rpuolicans of Richland County, who had &C.
Quilted themselves 30 Dooly In the election,
and congratulated them that despite the trail.
tors within our ranke, and the enc
niles without, the party had preserved
its unity, and administered an over
whelming defeat to It's opponenis. From the
mountains 10 the seaboard the news has
flashed along the wires that the Stale renewB
It's pledges 10 q tree, republican form Of
government. Those whom W. have had to
meet on the stump have Bet up the audaclous
claim TO q monopoly OF honesty and virtue,
have shown themselves willing to sell them
selves 10 their enemies for Democratic votes.
He had made no pledges TO our opponents.
Hoped the era Of good feeling had dawned,
and dwell together In peace and harmony.
He would see that no white man was wroDged,
and no colored man oppressed. The humblest
cIlizsn should have all his rights. he also
pledged himself TO an economical and honest
administration OF the government, aud ehould
try to merit their approval, and hoped they
would Do able TO say, well done, good and
faithful servant"
Judge s. l.. Hoge, comptroller. general elect,
was next introduced, aud made a very effec-
tive speech. he closed with an exhortation
to staUd by the party, and to vote Tor Grant
and Wilson In November next.
JUDGE MAcKEY's SPEECH.
Judge T. j. Mackey was the next speaker.
He said he was not one Of the successful can
dldates, but be rejoiced with those who were
successful, and for whose success he had Ia
bored. I'VE have met the enemy, and they
are ours" It Is well to send up our rockets
to the heavens: We sent up our rockets yee-
terday at the ballot-box, and tonight Tomlln-
son and his followers see stars. With the pa
/ tronage of the General Government against
us, and the wealth of the State against
us, we have achieved a glorious victory. That
victory has come from the united efforts OF the
laboring men. They have spoken out of their
poor and humble homes, and their triumph is as
brilliant as It IL deserved. He spoke of the
exceeding bitterness OF the Boilers In the
campaign; and their boasts that they would
carry the State by twenty thousand. They
had inglorlously failed. Hencetorth there
sbould be q reign Of law. The humblest man
| would not be TOO low to be protected, the
highest to be reached by the law. Hence
forth II the Ku-Klnx whistle blows 1t will be
answered by the law. This victory assured
the election Of Republican senator In place
of Sawyer, who had betrayed the party which
gave him position. He closed by paying q
high tribute to the efficiency and success of
Eon. R. B. Elliott, chairman of the Republi-
can executive committee, and said that this
| grand result was largely due to his labors.

After the crowd had enjoyed more music
| and set off a quantity of fireworks, his Excel.
| lency, Governor r. K. Scott, was introduced,
and was received with great enthusiasm. He
| took pleasure In mingling his voice with those
| who had already spoken In their rejoicing over
| the victory just gained. Notwithstanding the
| course of these who had hitherto belonged IL
| and worked with the Republican party, 10
going over to our enemies at last, yet they had
| been disastrousIy beaten. He paid q high
| compliment to the abilities of General Moses,
| and believed he and his friends on the tlckel
| would fulfil all their pledges to The party, ant
/ accomplish all the reforms promised In Lheil
| platform. He hoped the era of bitterness haC
| passed away, and that The future would show
greater harmony and peace. He believed
| all would do their duty aud help the admins
tra,ion, instead of trying to destroy 1t, they
/ would have 8 good government, and one thai
would be q credit to the State. he made al
earnest appeal to support Grant and Wilson Ii
November. He was repeatedly chtered.
