ARTEsIAN WELLs.-It has long been a question
as to whether or not there are large bodies oil water
hidden beneath the surface of these islands which
could be made available for irrigation purposes
by means of wells sunk to great depths. The bus
mess of boring for water in California has been
very largely and successfully prosecuted, espe-
cially in the southern part of the State, where
former barren tracts have been rendered wonder
fully productive by the sinking OF artesian wells.
By the last steamer, Mr.. Carrie Oester. an expe-
rienced we'll borer, arrived from San Francisco,
provided with tools and appliances for this work.
This presents a favorable opportunity to solve the
question of the practieability of this sort OF irri-
CATION on these islands, and we suggest mat IT
would be we'll for government to take the lead in
making an experiment.

In 1871 1t was found that a most diaboii-

In 1871 1t was found that most diaboli
cal Ku- -Klux conspiracy existed in the upper
counties of South Carolina against the free
dom of the ballot. The evidence against
the ringleaders was voluminous, and dozens
of them were sentenced to the Albany pen
iteRtisry as punishment for their inhuman
crimes. Feeling that the majesty of the
law was fully vindicated, President Grant,
through the Intervention of Hon. A. s.
Wallace, bestowed q benign clemency upon
the culpriis, and allowed them to return to
their homes. One would have supposed
that these men would ere this have been
taught to respect the majesty of the Gov
eminent, even though their lack Of graft
tpde prevented their respecting their bene-
factor. Not so, however, as private lnfor-
nation from Winnsboro', S. c., conveys
the intelligence that Colonel Wallace has
been estopped from making canvass of his
district by these miscreauts, who send their
worst bullies and roughs to demand ''hslf
the time" at his various appointments, thus
preventing his addressing his fellow citi-
zens upon the issues of the day. 1t is need
less 10 add that the object Of these men is
to incite riot, when, upon the merest
pretext, they would assassinate Colonel
Wallace. Things have, indeed. come to a
pretty pass in South Carolina when men of
Colonel Wallace's well known conserva-
tism ale thus treated and prevented from
exercising the rights of free speech. Let
martial law be at once procl,ime in those
turbulent sections, and let the ringleaders
of this second conspiracy be arrested and
consigned to jail without the benefits of the
hateas corpus. The purity of the ballot
and the liberty OF the citizen to exercise
the right of free speech must be preserved
at all hazards in all sections of the Union.

A PARAGRAPH in this journal Of yester-
day, referring to Doc Slater. the Bali
more gambler, as a Democratic supervisor
of elections under arrest appears to have
originated under a misapprehenslon of the
facts in the case We are informed that the
party arrested was not Doc" Slater atall,
but highly reputable merchant and Sun
day-school superintendent of the name of
Slater, who, in his capacity of Republican
supervisor of elections, had demanded &C.
cess to the registration records in order to
make lists for Republican use. This was
one of his legal rights, and for its assertion
he was arrested by the Democrats and
locked up. He was afterwards released on
bail after having been brought before the
court upon a writ of hG6eas corpus. We
regret the mistake into which we were led
by the similarity Of names, and hope no
real injury will result from the error. Mr..
Slater was victim to his devotion to duty,
and is entitled to the thanks of his party.

THE ADAMS F1Asco In MASSACHUSETTS

The Boston TrGUelLer remarked awhile
ago that the Adams movement was per-.
feet failure. Though nominated by a
convention supposed to have been a
democratic convention, there has not, as
"yet, been any really earnest, demonstra-
"tiye response to that strange proceeding"
There is no furore, no shouts of approval
anywhere nothing Of the kind has hap
pened. 1t is nomination that the party
is disgusted with, and the nominee is
ashamed Of the party. Well, at this we
are not surprised indeed, We could antici-
pate nothing else. Not but what there may
have been time when something tolera-
bly, well emphasized might have happened,
but that time certainly is not now. OF
course, 1t is undeniable that the Adams
family have a name and history in the
annals of the nation, and it is equally true
that Mr.. Charles Francis Adams himself
hes been held in high repute and mot
without honor in his own country" but 1t
does not follow at ali from this admission
that he possesses in himself, independent of
the moral support Of those with whom he
has in former times acted politically, either
the innate moral fUrce or the politicl Al mag
netism requisite to carry any very great
number of this class away from the politi-
cal organization, to which both have been
thus attached; for all know, or
ought to know, times and SEASONS
change, and therefore what might
have been done yesterday cannot neces-
sariIy be done to-day. The possible be-
comes the impossible in spite of persons,
reputation, name or fame. This hypothesis
is illustrated in the progress of all moral
reforms, and political revolutions that have
excited public attention or stirred the pub
Lie mind. The tide rises and falls, and you
must 60 with its flood if you go at all; or,

THE Memphis Appeal charges that Sem
ator Bruce, upon his arrival home, at Boli-
var, Miss, made a Democratic speech to
his friends and neighbors, and advised
them to vote the Democratic ticket. Ad-
vices from the Senator received in this city
state that Senator Bruce was advertised to
speak in Bolivar upon the pending issues.
He found high state OF excitement there on
the day of the meeting, which portended a
collision, and in spirit of peace and order
laid aside his prepared speech, simply ad-
dressing few words of Cancellation to his
friends, cxhorIing them to do nothing to
provoke violence, but quietly to perform
their duties as voters. He gave no such
advice as the ApEeGrs information indi-
Gates, Lut pursued The course he did in
spirit of true patriotism, which should con-
mand the appreciation Of all good citlzens.
The banditti, however, persist in misrepre-
senting his course and language to aid their
nefarious purposes. Senator Bruce will
speak at Holly Springs and ether promi-
nent points in the State in favor of H tyes
and Wheeler.

THE first grand battle of the Presiden-
tial campaign proper occurred yesterday
in the outposts of Ohio and Indiana. Else
where will be found such returns and esti-
mates as were received up to the hour of
our going to press. They are far from
being full enough to show definitely the
result, although they furnish good grounds
for the belief that Harrison, Republican,
has been elected Governor of Indiana by
at least five thousand majority, and that
Ohio has certainly gone Republican by ten
to fifteen thousand Official retures may
vary these figures materially. The vote is
much the largest ever polled, and the can
vassing will occupy a good portion of to-
day. In any event the Republicans have
every reason TO he tisfied with the efforts
they have made, and we have every con-
fiderce that full returns will assure them
of decisive victory in both States. Such
a result will insure sweeping victory in
November.

be homely, but ii Is trite, and most fttingly
illustrates Mr.. Adams case. Hence the
trouble with him just now in assuming the
position he does. In order to carry off Re-
publican votes he entirely disregards the
principle here illustrated by striking, so to
speak, when the iron is cold, and thus no
impression is made. The iron does not
yield, while the hammer rebounds, only to
show an utter waste Of strength.
Hence the folly of his nomination. 1t is
out of time, out of place, falls ''shll- born,
and arouses no general feeling OF sym
patby or support. And simply because TO-
day the people, as represented by the Re-
publican party in its former numerical
strength, want something more than a
man, something more than name, proud
though it may be, and laureled with the
bays that cluster about an illustrious an
ccstry's good name. They want as well
principle behind it; a policy. measure, a
moral force with a well-de6ned and un-
mistskable end in view. That principle,
policy and end they now see in Rutherford
B. Hayes, and the platform upon which he
stands; in Alexander Rice, whose political
status corresponds thereto; and they do
not see it either in Samuel ]. Tildeu,
Charles Francis Adams, or in the
platform upon which these gentlemen pre-
sumo to stand.
This is all there Is about it. And this
accounts for the fact that Mr.. Adams will
have no following. There is no "aood-
tide" to go with him, and no "red heat"
among his old friends to be impressed by
the new philosophy of political forces and
reform gravities which have so recently
precipitated him into the arms of the
''reform Democracy" Two years ago, in
the exuberance of their magnanimity and
generosity, the chances were much better;
but now it is too late too late The
doings of the late Confederate Congress-
so suggestive, plain and unmistakable-
have in their results and promises brought
order out of chaos, so far as divisions of this
kind are in question.
The Republican ranks close up. And
the wide acclaim, CAS- you were!' is heard
and answered all along the lines. The
great body Of those who fell out by the
wsy fall in and respond to the call earnest
Iy and heartily. There is no going back
now with them.
+. Thus we are substantially intact. This
being so. nothing more is needed. The
Democrats may poll their own full vote, if
you please. That will not save them. be-
cause at its best it is but minority, where
as all that the Republicans need is to bring
out their old-time strength. Do this, and
the result cannot be doubtful. We believe
it can and will be done. Indeed, from all
we see and hear, there is no such word as
fail among the Republicans in this cam
paign.

THE response of Governor Chamberlain,
of South Carolina, to the Democratic bar-
ditti committed protest has the ring of the
true metal. He plainly tells these bandits
that they must disarm and conform to the
law-and order system. The alternative is
a call for the aid of the General Govern
ment The case is thus narrowed down to
one of obedience to the laws and Constitu-
ton of the United States. The conduct of
Wade Hampton and his followers will show
beyond a peradventure whether they in
tend to be loyal in their submission to the
Constitution and the laws passed there
under, or whether their former professions
of acceptstion of the situation was merely a
trick by which to obtain amnesty and re-
habilitation as State, with representation
in Congress. If they obey the Governors
proclamation ordering them to disband
their clubs and yield obedience to law,
they will show some desire to maintain the
peace and foster the prosperity of the coun-
try. If they do not they will evince their
determination 10 rule or ruin at all hazards.
