Democratic Impudence.

The sudden and vCciferous claims
which have been made by the De-
mocracy to Democratic majorities in
some of the Southern States isequaIly
brazen and unfounded. Let US brief
ly examine some OF these claims.
First, take the case OF South Caro-
lima. This Site has had formerly an
undeniable Republican majority OF
from 10000 to $4,000. This fact no
well informed person will deny, who
Is acquainted with the negro percent
age OF population and the statistics
OF recent state elections. And yet
the Democrats have been laying
claims to the vote OF this State by
majorities varying from 1000 to TO-
900. Does anysane man suppose any
such vote could be polled only by the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.? For instance
In tho eight counties comprising the
Twenty third District, at the election
two years ago, and when many Re-
publicans voted the Democratic tick
ct. there was still Republican ma
jority of Alp votes. In these eight
counties the Democrats are now
claiminga majority for Tilden OF g..
834, and for Hampton OF 6, 4SS, show.

This is Republican State by ma

We heartily commend the following
to the thoughtful reading of blood
demanding Democrats:
This is not a time to be playing
with fire; but, il the Democratic
leaders mean 10 do so, we warn them
that they will get their own fingers
burned. 1t will not do for the Demo
cratic politicians to let 1t be under
stood that they do not mean to abide
by any just and lawful verdict which
the people may give. 1t will not do
for them now, when nothing is
decided, to hint or threaten. about
what they will do II the issue goes
against them. The people OF this
country have not forgotten 1861, and
they do not mean to be dragged into
another war by a set of men the bur-
den of whose blunders and wicked
ambitions we are still bearing.-N Y.
