Wickedness is often successful for .
season. and the gains of unrighteou,ness
increase, but in the end the storm comes
and sweeps everything before it. Detection
is almost sure to follow 10 the steps OF
crime, though the wrong is done by those
in high places and is shielded by recognized
power. The clerk who robs his employer
of few dollars, or the cabinet minister
who accepts a bribe of thousands, may
equally expect that the avenger will be
put upon his trail. This is hard lesson
to be learned by tempted men. The man
whom a few days ago, the nation delighted
to honor as its trusted war secretary, now
envies the lot of the humblest citizen who
lays his head down upon an honest pillow
and sleeps in peace le' gases

To JAMES A. HoYT, Esq, Editor Ander

To JAMES A. HoYT, Esq, Editor Ander-
son htcMgeaccr:
My Dear iSir-Will you allow me o
small space in the columns of your valuable
paper to make suggestion to the Democrats
in our County, and especially to our DEM
ocratic Clubs, for their consideration.
It is this Ii am not mistaken, there
are only four names spoken of in con-
nection as candidates for the Legislature /;
and we are entitled to four Representatives
now, and as competition is said to be the
life of business" I would respectfully re-
commend that we run at our primary cleo
ton more names than the number to which
we are entitled as it would make the race
more exciting, and interesting. Also, be-
lieve there has been something said about
the people seeking, the men for office, and
not the man theF Office. The aepne thqtI
am going to submit for consideration has
not been spoken of in connection for the
Legislature, as 1 know of and is one that
would make us a good and efficient men,
bcr; he is young active, and very energetic,
and great worker, and SHOULD be put to
work by the people while young. That
name is EDWARDS B. MURRAY, and will be
voted for at our primary election by
MANY DEMOCRATS.

The RADICAL PRoGRAMME..-The Co.
lumbia Phoenir makes the following
statement of the programme agreed upon
by the leadersof the Radical party in
this State: :.
1t has been divulged recently that the
Radical party are to hold no more public
meetings during the present canvass.
This course, we learn, was resolved upon
in the secret session of the late Radical
State Convention. The object of this
move on the political chess-board is said
to be to make it apparent that the Demo
Gratis intend to continue the process of
intimidation, which, the Radicals allege,
has already been inaugurated in this
State. The leaders of this faction hope
in this way to be able to make out case
sufficiently strong to induce the authori'
ties at Washington to declare at least
half the counties in South Carolina under
martial law, in order that the vote Of the
State may be cast for their party. The
presence Of Gov. Chamberlain at the ma
tional capital, just now, accompanied by
some of the greater lights of his peculiar
creed, whose mission is presumed to be
of political nature, would seem to give
some coloring to the statements made
above. As additional evidence, it is
noticeable fact that, since the adjourn
ment of the Convention, there have been
no Radical public meetings held, nor
any announced to be holden.
A colored member of the late Conven-
ton, who went over into North Carolina,
the other day, is reported to have di-
vulged this programme of his party in
presence of a Democrat, from whom we
obtained the intelligence. All Of. which
may or may not be the truth, We, are,
however, 10th to believe that the great
Democratic party of the nation would
stand idly by and witness such fagrant
violation of the Constitution, as the de,
claration of martial law, perpetrated
upon any section Of the Union. That
the Radical party should attempt such
measures is but in keeping with their
former history. The rule and ruin policy
is their motto, to which they are as fully
committed as Ephraim was to his idols.

A coLoRED HAMPTON CLUB.

A meeting of colored citizens was called
on last Friday night in the Court House,
for the purpose Of organizing a colored
Hampton Club. 1t was very well attended
by both white and colered citizens, and or
ganized by calling DR.. w. H. Nardin to the
chair, and requesting G. w. Hammond,
ESQ. to act as secretary. After the offering
of several resolutions for consideration, it
was resolved to postpone any action on per-
manent organization until tonight, (Thurs'
day.) when there will be another meeting.
Messrs. E. NJ. Rucker, Samuel Johnson,
lcolored,) B.F. Whitner, w. H. Brockman'
icolored,) James A. Hoyt, Benjamin Col
Inns (colored, and Matthew Heldman were
called upon, and responded in well-timed'
effective arguments. We hope every color
ed voter in Anderson will be present to-
night, and that flourishing Club will be
organized.

they take the Medicine.

A CARD.

To the Voting Citizens Of anderson County:
am in entire accord with the platform
and principles enunciated by the Democracy
of our country; and one of their first decla-
rations, when forming clubs for the CAM
paign, was to make the office seek the man
and not to encourage the seeking of the
office by the man. But since the notice of
my own name by kind friends of various
clubs, am urged to canvass, as others are
said to do, but this am unable to do on
account of feeble health, and my friends
must therefore excuse what may seem to be
indifference. have never had but one po-
litical faith-my motto is, Honesty and
capacity for Office, the lowest possible taxes
consistent with creditable administration
of the government, few offices and officers,
short and working sessions by the Legisla-
ture, low fees, salaries or per diem; let the
officers be servants rather than masters of
their constituents, and encourage that gov
ernment which dispenses the greatest good
to the greatest number. To these and kim
dred sentiments I am far from being indif-
ferent; nay, who could be Indifferent or who
can dare even to remain idle when our moth
er country is to speedily be redeemed from
those shackles which threaten her dissolu-
ton? for while she needed the smallest pos
sible measure of taxation, she has been dosed
with portion ten fold above her ability to
bear; she needed stimulant composed of
equal parts of Honesty and capacity" and
instead thereof her pretended physicians
gave her ON unbearable dose of ignorance,
imbecility and corruption; when her resto-
ration required the fewest of well-skilled
nurses in the various departments, she has
been beseiged with an innunerable host OF
pretenders who fill every possible niche, and
thus forbid even the breathing of healthy
atmosphere, until she is well nigh suffoca.
ted; and, above all, when she most needed
mutual confidence, forbearance and hasmo-
nv in the household, those quacks stirred up
jealousy animosity and pickering amongst
her children, thereby giving to themselves
the oppertunity-which they have made
haste to improye-of robbing her tills, emp
tying her pantries, running her credit and
degrading her children until they have so
completely bankrupted her entire estate that
even children's children must suffer in con-
sequence thereof; and now those croakers
have the audacity 10 tell us that they are
the only physicians that can effect cure.
May God speedily deliver us from such
monsters, and may the people all cry,
amen"
submit my past as guarantee for the
future, if on the 10Th of October my friends
place me in position as one of the cup bear
ers in nomination for the Legislature,
though at sacrifice, l will strive to serve
with my might; if they prefer Others l
shall be content cheerfully to step behind
and assist in holding up their hands.
With thanks to kind friends who present
my claims, remain, obcdiently,
w. s. pICKENS.
September %, 1876.
