Standing by the Law.

The impartial observer at the
North must have all along been
struck with ono feature of the course
OF tho Democrats of South Carolina.
1t is their constant and ready ODE
ience to tho law. Going back as
far as tho Hamburg affair-which
WAS distorted by tho Radicals into
on occurrence having political
significancc-wo find tho white peo
pie Of South Carolina, ready. willing,
nay, eager, to have tho guilty par-
ties tried and punished according to
law. More than this-when the
frat session of court was held, after
the occurrence, tho persons who
had boon accused urged that there
bo m Immediate trial Of their own
cases. They had voluntarily surrcn-
dered to tho shoritf, and thoy hold
and still hold themselves reaay to
prove thoir innocence or to suffer
tho pains of guilt. Thoy stand by
tho law. Again, whom Chamber
lain, actuated by motives peculiar.to
malicious spirit, issued his proc.
l"mations directed against tho rifle
clubs, tho white people at once
obeyod his commands to the letter.
Organizations which traced their
origin to the troublous times of
ITS, and others whose members
had united simply for social pur-
poses, all at once disbandod, and tho
only arms-beaiing organizations in
tho State were tho negro militia,
and bands of negroes armed, Or
ganized and drilling contrary to
law. Tho action Of Chamberlain

and docs the cause of honesty quite
as much injury, as did he who
openly and boldly fought the
Democracy in the campaign recently
closed. The latter furnished, or
assisted in procuring, tho means of
the officers election but the form
CT furnishes the means to an un
worthy nun, of retaining his place.
Men may be sometimes SO blinded
by tho excitement incident to q
political canvass that they forgot for
tho time the unfitness of their
chosen candidates but not so
when the fight is ended Then tho
oycs of all are nncloudcd, and all
must act with That degree Of pro
pricty which cool men exercise. No
possible excuse is there for q man
who processes to be on the side of
good government and in the next
instant, almost, gives aid to those
who are it's grcatest enemies. Lot
thoro be an end at once of Demo-
cratic suroties on Radical bonds.

towards the rlfie-clubs was piece
fpetty tyranny entirely consistent
with the character he has shown
himself to possess. It had but tho
show OF legal sanction, but even
under such circumstances the white
people determined to stand by the
law. And 30 it is in the fight which
for son4o days has been going on in
Columbia. The Democrats, natu-
rally fearing foul play from tho
Board Of State Canyasacrs, wont
before the Supreme Court, to pro
cure it's intorsposition and it's pro-
lection. All they uslted WAS that
the Board should bo restrained from
exceeding it's lawful powers and that
it should be compelled to do what
is commanded by law. Thoy have
placed their entire case in the hands
OF the supreme judicial body in the
State, and they resist nothing but
tho monstrous actions contemDla-
ted and tho absurd propositions stat
ed bytho Board. Under circumstances
highly calculated to excite the
deepest Indignation, they quietly
await tho yindication of their risyhts
at the hands Of tho court. They
stand by the law. It would seem
that the course of the people were
amply sufficient Of itself to silence
the voico of abuse which has been
30 harsh and strong for meny months
past. But not SO. The Radical
newspapers, prominent among them
the New York Times, the accredited
organ of the Administration, still
prate of the wnrlike conduct Of the
South Carolinians, and uphold the
infamous Board in MI their illegal
II ts. III J still try to grind the
outrage-mill, and still wavo the
bloody shirt. Yet all to no purpose.
The thinking masses of tho entiro
Union have como to zee through
the tlimsy guise which conceals the
actual motives Of tho Radical party
leaders. The people SEQ there is
less truth than mulice in the state
mcnts Of these leaders, and they
look elsewhere for tho actual facts.
Meantime, the mon who are abused
and tauntod from day to day, with
Wow 40 to arouse their feelings as
to load them to some unlawful act,

impossibility, of any great criminal's 8
long evading the demands of justice.
