bon informed the Presidents tbSt 90; the

RTesiaAnt said that if the clubs cslselin-
iterferibg as armed organizations at the

from any attempt at coercing the negroes,
he would take no further action. The
President said that he intended, however,
to keep the troops in the State of South
Carolina until after the election that tie
negroes should exercise the right Of roting
Gieir sentiments. and thGt II any Of them de
sired TO pote the Democratic ticket they
should be protected in 50 doing. Senator

and good feeling between the races, and
secure, if possible, an orderly and peace

AS to south Carolina Herself.

The verdict of the country upon the
Presidents course against South Carolina
begins to be heard. The tone is one of
unmistakable condemnation. Some of
the criticism relates to the ignorance or
violation of law displayed in the procla-
nation. That criticism may, perhaps, be
too fine for popular patience. Though it
will make the slowest impression, it will
nevertheless make the longest and strong
est impression. Since "Wednesday emin-
ent jurists and,law writers have shown
that the Presidents nroolam alton is CON-
trary to the Constitution, contrary to the
Federal statutes and contrary to the decis-
ion Of the United States Su preme Court.
It il e shameful and mort ying thing to
have even such q person 6s . Save inflicted
upon ourselves for President, served and
advised by such an Attorney General as
ne has selected.
The moral and practical side of the
situatiou, however, at present most deep
ly Affects the country. ~ South Carolina's
wrongs have penetrated every American
mind. The earnest. orderly and egoniz-
ing effort the State dhas, made to restore
honest rnle has been heralded oil over
the land. What Chamberlainism is all
now appreciate. The devil fish politics
and administration it imposes are also
known. There is no misinterpretation of
the State by the fair minded men of any
party. The papers which uphold the
cause and course Of Chamberlain cover
themselves with infhmy and divorce
themselves from the respect of all con-
slderate readers. The men and women
who peruse the sligbtest defenses of the
Thieves party in South Carolina, merely
gay: THAT is wrong" When they see
allegations of disorder. ind cruelty put
forward 20 Justify the bayonet policy.
they merely say "These arc lies."-.
Against the conviction of the public
mind of the wrong and the lies about
South Carolina, the organs waste them
selSee in vain. The Ame-icaEa. otter get
false views of public events for n short
time; but in this South Carolina matter
their vision has been clear and their in
formation full and correct. The pure
ethics of the question have come to then,
direct. They realize that Republicanism
in South Carolina includes every form
and degree of crime. They realize that
! ..hc Presidents cnnree IN favor Of i ;n-
cindes every forc: AMI degree oftyranny.
Crime and tyranny wher -ealiEed never
incite Americans to doubtful, courses
South, Carolina is sympathized with
Chamberlain isdeteSted, Grant is con
demned. Taft is aespised. The army
| sent down there to do the dirty work oi
dirty men for dirty purposes is reli u
upon to vindicate its fame by, fraterniz
ing with the people. All this is the feel.

The PRESIDENT MIsINFoRMED.-The
President of the United States is MOI IN
relation with very good sources of infor-
nation as 20 the events or tue day c.Sc.:5
the condition of the country, and, in con-
sequence, there are several statements in
his proclamation in regard to South Car
olina which are erroneous.
/. It is stated by the President that ia.
sufrection EXISTS in several counties of
South Carolina; but this is not true.
. 2. It Is stated that these insurrcCtions
cannot be controlled or suppressed by
the ordinary course OF justice.n As the
ordinary course Of Justice" has not been
tried, how can this be known?
s. It Is said that the Legislature "can-
not be convened in time to meet the emer-
gency;" which is incorrect, for the Legis-
lature can be convened scoifaiuT than troops
can be taken there.t-N. r Herald. =

troops which have come into this State
officers and men-have been most agree
ably surprised to find the people peaces.

great many expressed their astonishment
that they were not ambuscadcd and shot.
We have heard Of Il captain who had his
men ready with guns in hand, loaded and
capped, to return an expected fire upon
them in the cars. Sucn have been the
lying statements in the yillainous Radical
sheets, that even good men have been de-
ceived by them. At Washington
plaes .ds have been printed and circu-
lated, purporting to have been posted in
public places aud OH trees in South Caro-
lima, abusive of the soldiers, threatening
their lives. and warning them not to come
into the State except at their peril. We
have read Of Punic faith and Cretan
liars, but Radical liars of our day trans
cend in the art of lying all rivals of all
times, as much es the telegraph surpasses
the caravan or the horse mail.-Reyistcr.

"GRNERz AafproN's STATEMENr.o
An insolent lli-tempered attack is
made by the apbia Uaion- Herald
upon General Han IN. ~ According to
iiho report pn1isiietI Tic tic Issi5s a,,t:
CurieI, General HamppA, said at Ian
caster: "Did the colorreE Aople present
know that, were they ia s sachusetts.

Chamberlain could vote the cSz2=z=54 men

Union- Herald as an instance Of N,us-
able ignorance or malicious mend n I"
The Massachusetts constitution ii
Gle XXI provides that: "No

read the constitution in the English Il
guage, and write his name." This pro-
vision, If in force in South Carolina,
would disfranchise nine-tenths Of the col

ofed men who heard General Hampton's
words at Lancaster could vote or hold
office in Massachusetts. Governor
Chhmberinin, in that State, would ei,;oy

Soio,SS PSoPLS Az tooutu Ou5oitua. MS
! Is all that General Hampton said or
meant; tho report from which the Union
Herald quotes did not pretend to give his
| exact words. gnr
1t is likely enough that the Union
Herald, chagrined at the obedience to
law of the Democracy, will try. by
making alluaions to General Hampton.
to provoke profitable retaliation. Such
! o paper, owned by Chamberlain aud Car.
dozo, cannot insult General Hampton,
and only wastes time in attempting it,

Mr.. J. Newton Perkins, a well-known
New York banker, died at Irvington, on
the Hudson, on Sunday at the age of II
years. His life was a checkered one. He
was born at Halifax, N. $ received lib
eral education, removed to Ithaca, N Y,
where he studied law, and was able to en-
ter upon its practice, when u preference for
finance led him to New York city, and he
soon became known as a leading banker,
and as member of the firm of Winsow,
Perkins & Co. He directed the formation
Of one of the best-known banking institu-
tons in the city-that of Winslow, Laner
IL Co. Having accumulated a fortune he
retired to Norwich, Conn, where he owned
superb villa and grounds. Misfortune
overlook him, and he was compelled to re-
turn to business life, this time appearing as
the head of the firm of j. n. Perkins & Co.
Another fortune was acquired, but the dis
astrous "Black Friday swept it away. His
wife died about this time, aud his own
health began to fail. His property at Nor
witch was sacrificed, and for few years
past he has been employed at an office in
Quad street at email salary. He was the
first cashier of the Ohio Life and Trust
Company, and was at one time treasurer of
the Illinois Central railroad. For MANY
KICK KICK E 4 ;1c
Mr. p. was the father of Mr.. Newton
Perkins, jr., who married Mary, the daugh-
ter of the late Hon. II. B. Sowles of st.
Adams.
