A DARK PICTURE BY A DUsKY RE-
RIRIICAN.

r. b. Elliott, the negro Congress
man who aspires to the Governorship
of South Carolina, with the intention
of making that "nest-bed of rebellion
the negroes elysium, draws doleful
picture of the results of unbridled
negro and caTpet-bag rule in that once
fair State. In recent speech at Co
lumbia, to an audience composed main
ly of his own race, he says:
Nothing can save that people who
have come to consider public position
as a source of private
advantage or gain. To-day the North
doubts whether we can maintain de-
cent government In South Carolina.
To-day orr friends blush for us. To-
day they look to see whether we are
capable of shaking off this monstrous
burden of maladministration. We
raise our demand for complete civil
rights, and the answer Is: Show us
that you are capable of approaching
your rights, restore good gov
eminent to South Carolina,
use her revenues to public ends.
1 confess. fellow citizens, that with all
my zeal for equal civil rights-and it is
a cause in which / am ready to lay
down my life if need bel confess
with sadness greater than 1 can
express, that here IN South Carolina
we to-day present a spectacle which
does not excite interast IN oIlr causa.-a
spectacle which disheartens our friends.
paralyses our best efforts for the COM
plete civil protection of our people, and
makes the name Of this Statea by-word
and reproach to our race. Our danger
is not from without, but from within.
1t is not the Democracy that will over
throw US, 1t is our own party, with its
faithless leaders and their infatuated
henchmen. Let us not look abroad for
our enemies; they are here, members of
our own party, officers elected by our
own votes. speak tonight from a
deep sense Of the danger that confronts
us-a danger springing not from the
Democracy of this State, not from the
Taxpayers Convention, not from any
external foes, but from the extrava-
gances, the disregard of public inter-
ests, the subordination of public aims
to private gains, manifested SO conspic-
uously by some of the members of our
own party"

AsIENIrIES OE THE PREss.

Recently number Of the "big guns"
of the city press have been firing off
broadsides at each other n the way of
calling each other the hardest kind of
names. a fight Of this kind between
one or two Of the New York dailies has
been waged for some time, and for the
past month or two n Similarcontest has
been going on between Halstead Of the
Cincinnati Commercial, and Deacon
Richard Smith, that truly good man,
of the Gazette, of the same city, IN
which the very expressive, if not refined
words liar" 'scoundrel, - coward, p"
are extravagantly used.
And now comes our Knoxville and
Chattanooga daihes, who have a similar
bout with each other. Liar" black
guard" ''wrathful idiot ''gibbering
uUmscull," etc, are a specimen Of the
cndearing names used towards each
other by the Times and Chronicle
Whether this state of things is owing
70 the season Of the year, indigestion
or some other cause, We are unable to
say. 1t Is a bad business; they should
cultivate more amiable dispositions, and

their country cousins.-KingstoH East
IcaHesSeeGH.
The groundlings Of this latitude have
been similarly entertained with diar-
rhea Of "bench-legged poodles;" "old
grannies, etc, which have gradually
simmered down to "discordant toot-
ings," = a sign that the digestion OF the
sufferer is slightly improving. Every
reader understands that the language
OF slang IS as free to US as to others.
But billingsgate, ike the boomerang,
often recoils on those who use it. We
d. not believe that such fishwoman's
logic VIII help any good cause before
Tennesseeans. 1t Is an insult to their
intelligence to resort to it. Besides,
we think the journalist can be and
should be a gentleman.
