cHIMsERLAIH's ABUSE OF THE PREsI-
DENr

Daniel II. Chamberlain and his renegade
allies in South Carolina, seeing the hand
writing on the wall, and knowing that
betrayed yeomanry will never again entrust
them as they have in the past, have sys-
tematicslly set themselves to work to asslil
the motives and policy of the President,
and endeayor TO bring his Administration
into disrepute amongst a people for whom
he has done SO much, thus catering to the
prcjudices Of the rebel element whose votes
Chamberlain is endeavoring TO secure in a
reelection for Governor this fll. The
following extract from the Union Herald.
owned and edited by Chamberlain, and
supported by assessments upon State
officers, and by frauds upon the State
treasury. thus disrespectfully alludes to the
President in recent issue: 1.-THE impeach-
"ment Of Grant and his Cabinet would not
al lose the Republican party two thousand
votes in New Hampshire, because their
"wc;l known corruption and proclivity for
accepting gifts has long since been
nausca:ing to decent men. The personal
" government OF the President would not
q have teen different had he been Demo-
" crst. nor Can al Improvement be looked
&" for So long as Grant is allowed to lead"
Influence lie begged two years ago to aid
in securing his election against the threats
Of rife clubs and Kuklux organizations.
Chamberlain has lost the confidence OF
South Carolina Republicans by his betrayal
OF the party. and looks for re election by
uniting tie Democratic vote with an in
significant faction, whose leaders are the
origina! corrupiionists OF the State. Car
dOzo Is a specimen of these leaders. When
Secretary of State, he once took the great
seal Of the State 10 NV York, and there
met Chamberlain, then Attorney General,
and Parker, then State Treasurer, and in
their presence affixed it to $4,000, OC0 of
fraudulent conversion bonds. These bonds
were placed in the hands Of II. II. Kimp.
ton, the financial agent of the State, in
New York, who sold them, and is now
charged with having divided the money
with this trio of frauds, and other blatant
''reformeTs."
1t was upon Chamberlain's written
opinion, as Attorney General, that Cardozo
was emboldened to perpetrate this great
wrong upon the State. Decent Democrats
like Colonel Haskill and General Wallace,
of Columbia, Major Barker, of Charleston,
and many others denounce Chamberlain
tor his treachery and Infamous antecedents;
but lie relies upon the purchaseable ele-
ment Of that party, headed by the disrep-
utable Meas and Courier, of Charleston,
together with the bread and butter brigade
of the Republican party to re-elcct HIM,
and thus triumph over the masses. Such
is the man who now, through his dirty
organ, daIes TO make a personal attack

one OF the strongest bands that holds the Re-

AMMUNITION FOR c)NHE ;rIcUr.
A Southern Democratic View Of the Result In
Nav HamnRhfre

from the Charlotte IN. CD Observer, 18th inst
Returns from New Hampshire indicate that
the Republicans elected their ticket in the
state on Tuesday by something more than
thousand votes. We are not at all surprised
at the result; in fact, we expected it. We
cannot trust any State whose interests are con-
fined to manufactures. The great mass of
voters are merely political automatons; are
under the surveillance of their employees; have
no freedom of opinion; are dependent upon
others for their daily bread; and like dumb cat
tie, are driven to the shambles at their mas
tiers will. Besides, there is nothing in COM
mon between US and the New England peo-
pie. Mean and petty in their spite !;
vindictive and malignant in their hatred; and
base and wardly by nature, they are incapa-
bic of 4 magnanimous act or of any of the
noble impulses that actuate q warm and gen
erous heart. They tried us once, and found
Us so hard to conquer that they have feared
us ever since, and would now, after decade
of peace, favor any measure that would place
collars upon our necks or make galley slaves
of our Southern manhood. Their only posi-
BILE objection TO the Democratic party is that
il fayoTs the freedom and enfranchisement of
the Southern States, and that alone Is suffi-
Gent 10 damn it forever in the eyes of the
New England Yankee. Yet, while we ex-
pected nothing patriotic from the Radical
Yankee, whose very name is the syno-
nym Of all that is pusillanimous and
sordid in nature, nevertheless we can
not but feel somewhat detected at the course
of New Hampshire on last Tuesday. The
people who did the voting are at least human
creatures; have the blood of the Anglo Saxon
race coursing in their veins, and are suffi-
GENTLY intelligent to know that 1t is a viola
tion of all laws, both human and divine, either
to steal or harbor the thieves who are plum
dering all that is sacred and valuable in their
own country. The Radical party has swept
like typhoon over the plains of this broad
Union: it has scorched the fields and withered
the vegetation; it has defaced the landmarks
and destroyed our institutions; il has spit upon
our cherished traditions and defed our laws; It
has trampled upon our liberties and plundered
our treasures; 1t has shamed us at home AMI
disgraced us abroad: and New Hampshire,
after all this, gone Radical! Well might we
exclaim, Blush, thou, o humanity, for au-
other foul crime has been committed in thy
fair name The dark flood of Radicalism that
has swept over the country for the las, ten
