PLAIN TALK FROM Gov. CHAMBERLAIN.
In a recently published letter Gov.
Chamberlain, of South Carolina, speaks
thus OF his opposition to Moses and
Whipper the recently elected judges
whose commissions he has refused to
sign:
PERSONALLY l claim no merit for
my recent action. l did no more than
any right thinking man in my place
must have done. But l am deeply
grateful for the proofs which every
day reach me OF the approval of my
fellow citizens. The recent judicial
elections in the first, second and third
circuits cannot be tolerated. They
warn us that the hard earned triumphs
of long centuries are again in danger;
that we must combine again to turn
back the incoming tide of corruption
and incompetency, which will, un-
checked, rise over our whole State"
The daily gazette., 1876-01-12

at every turn his hypocrisy was held
up to scorn. If Blaine could have sat
still under the infliction his agony
might have escaped notice, but he
rose over and over again TO retrieve
himself, and at every, interruption he
was knocked back savagely. Hetried
to be witty, and the joke was turned
on him. He tried TO pick up Cox on
slip in his language, and was informed
with cool impudence, that it would be
correctedin ia the Gtsbes- He appealed
to Randall and .Rainey. il support Of
facts, and was not sustained. And
finally his opponent remarked, with
grim humor, after an unusually bitter
retort, "You are like the boy in Mem
phis who undertook to twist the mules
tail; you never again will be near so
handsome as you were, but you will
know great deal more than you did I"
How the speeches will read it is not
easy to say, but there can be no ques-
tion that in their delivery the victory
lay with Cox. The scope of his speech
was to prove that the Republican OPP
position to amnesty at the present time
was dishonest sham designed for po-
litical effect. he himself did not hes
itate to say, in the course of the even
ing, that he had killed Jim Blaine. If
not, he certainly flayed him alive.

WILMINGTON, DEL, JAN. IL, 1875.
4 se.ndaloas Attempt at Deception.

A scandalons Attempt at Deception.
The attempt of the Republican pa
pers to deceive their re sders int the
opinion that the Democratic majority
of the City Council are responsible
for the increase in the appropriations
in compliance with the,demands of the
Board of Public Education may justly
be characterized as scandalous. Their
readers are not all such fools as they
seem to take them to be; the colored
portion who read only Republican
papers may be deceived. But there is
too much intelligence in the Republi-
cans in Wilmington to be caught with
such chaff. No one can value Journal
or journalist that stoops to such mean
tricks. 1t only shows to what shifts
these political bablers are driven to
find something to complain of. The
Democrats In the City Council have
10 far endeayorcd to keep and we bo.
lieye have kept the expenses far below
what they would have been had THERE
publicans been in majority.
But the fact cannot be ignored that
the Board of Public Education is too.
thirds Republican, and that they refus.
ed to curtail the school expenses and
