THE PEACEABLE CLOSE OF THE GREAT
CAMPAIGN.

THE PEACEABLE CLOSE OF THE GREAT
CAMPAIGN.
COLUMBIA, S. c., November 4.-Gen,
Hampton closed his brilliant campaign
in blaze of glory to-day. This city was
profusely and tastefully decorated with
flags, streamers, festoons of flowers and
evergreen and decorations of various
kinds. Fully six thousand voters were
in line. Business was generally suspen-
ded, and nearly the entire population
were on the streets. Neerly six hundred
negroes were in the procession. The only
unpleasantness grew out of the abuse of
these Democratic negroes by men and
women of their own color. Many drunken
negroes, male and female, were on the
streets whose insolence and ribaldry
would at any other time have been re-
sented. The whites bore it patiently land
riot was thus avoided. Tonight the city
is Illuminated and ablaze with fireworks.
General Hampton, who spoke to-day was
posted for tonight, but owing to the
death of a grandchild could not be pres
ent. A notable feature of the days pro-
ceedings was the manning of Democratic
guns by soldiers of the United States Ar
tillery. Two or three fights occurred and
one man was seriously wounded, but
whiskey, not politics was the cause.

Letter from Gen. Hanp.
f0s In Reply to Chamberlain.

General Wade Hampton has replied
through the New York Tibune to the
long letter published in that paper from
Gov. Chamberlain in which the latter at
tempted to justify his call for troops for
South Carolina. Gen. Hampton denies
emphatically the truth of Chamberlains
statements and that there is or has been
domestic violence calling for the use of
troops. He says that only a few of the
rifle clubs were armed, and that no white
man ever showed gun or pistol at any
meeting he ever attended; while colored
men did. The arming of the whites at
Ellenton, he says, was for self protection.
He adds:
~ deny most emphatically that the
rifle clubs have killed many members of
the republican party; have whipped and
threatened thousands. / challenge Gov.
Chamberlain to the proof of this charge,
which know to be a foul slander upon
a people whose rank offense is that they
are no longer willing to be pludered and
oppressed by Gov. Chamberlain's party.
But call attention to the fact that at
Combahee for days and weeks armed
bands Of negroes whipped and beat other
negroes. resisted arrest defied the law
and rescued those who had been arres-
ted, and not one of these law beakers has
been brought to justice.
During these disturbances though ap
pealed to the sheriff for aid to enforce TIL
law the Governor never visited the scene
to ascertain the facts or lend his aid to
the preservation of peace. Gov. Cham
berlain has failedto give asingle instance
where Il republican has suffered by the
intimidation or violence of a democrat
The existence of such outrages rests upon
his unsupported assertion, while the
papers of the State are filed with in
stances, name date and place, fully given
where democratic negroes have been
threatened, beaten and wounded by re-
publicans. Yet no arrests were made;
nor have troops been sent for their pro-
lection. AS far as he can, the executive
teaches that the colored democrat has
no right that the authorities are bound to
respect"
He explains that the democrats turned
from Chamberlain after supporting him
for awhile because they found the old
corrupt leaders were dominant in the re-
publican party, and it was incapable OF
reform, and Chamberlain is now allied
with its worst elements. Gen. Hampton
repeats that the only object of his can
vass is to secure peace and honest govern
ment and to administer impartial justice
to all classes

Senator Bayard's Speech.
From the Newark Daily Tribune. Nov. 2.

From the Newark Daily Tribune. Nov. 2.
We are no man-worshiper, but certain
ly we do think that one of the very no
blest and most thoroughly and purely
patriotic men in this country to-day, and
withal one of the very ablest and highest
toned statesmen, is THOMAS f. BAYARD,
the distinguished and eloquent man who
honored the Democracy of Newark, yes,
the city of Newark, with his presence
and speech yesterday. OF the speech we
can only say that'it was great effort, an
effort worthy alike of the man, the cause
and the occasion. 1t grieves us that we
cannot to-day give photograph, so to
speak, of it, reproduce the earnestness and
the quiet, calm, convincing manner OF
delivery, as well as the elevated Words
1t was speech eminently calculated to
make converts, and, to our certain knowl-
edge, did make converts, did convince
Republicans who had heard and been
disguised with Blaine that when such
men as Bayard are the leading pillars of
the temple of Democracy, the great tenn
pie founded by Thomas Jefferson, they
need have no fear of entering in. And
how the audience-one of the largest and
finest ever gathered in Newark-for over
an hour and three-quarters hung upon the
truth, trumpet-tongued truth, which drop
ped from the speakers lips! 1t was a
mute, an indescribably eloquent tribute
to the illustrious man who spoke. The
attention paid him, and the encomiums
passed upon his address are higher praise
than the highest we could give him.
What struck the listener, Republican,was
the calmness, the gentleness and yet the
soundless force of the Senator's words
We could not help thinking, as the
speaker closed
''Thy gentleness hath made thee great ~
Nor could we help thinking what a
change, what grand reform will come
with Tilden's election when mon like
Bayard fill the places now disgraced by
the Chambers, the Camerons and the
Robesons
The daily gazette., 1876-11-06
From the New York journal Of Commerce.
Mr.. Evarts's Sup PRESTON Of Fas,s.

Mr.. Evartss Sup PRESTON Of Faces,
As a lawyer, making labored plea for
aparty client, Wednesday night, Mr.. Ev-
arts may have justified himself in the
trick of suppressing great mass of evi-
dence which, If put before an impartial
audience, would have upset his bugbear
argument about the rebel claims and his
pretended apprehensions that they would
be paid in the event of Governor Tilden's
election. Mr.. Evarts does not conceal
Llost distinct and positive language, pledg-
ed himself, if elected President, to veto
"eveIy bill providing for the assumption
or payment Of any such [rebel] debts,
losses, damages, claims, or for the refund
ing Of any such [cotton] taxes" and this,
too, "whether covered by the Fourteenth
amendment or not" No promise touch
ing this subject could be made more
sweeping or more satisfactory; and those
who know Governor Tilden feel assured
that 1t will be inviolably kept. This let
ter has been before the public since Octo-
Der 25, and has been read by everybody:
Its existence, therefore, could not be ig-
nored by Mr.. Evarts. He was obliged to
refer to it. But he tries to break the force
of the letter by representing the Demo-
cratic party to be in favor of paying these
rebel claims! He affects to fear that the
party feeling that way particularly at
the South) will be too strong for Presi-
dent Tilden-that either it will prevent
his vetoing any bills that may pass for the
payment of rebel claims, or else that it
will crush him if he thus exercises the vc-
to power. Mr.. Evart's words are as fol-
lows: 81 think that the veto will break,
OF, if it does not, that the resolute and set
purpose of the men of strong convictions
| and strong passions that are to fill Con-
gress with a united South will break the
President ifthey cannot break the Veto.
Here it is assumed that the South is
"united" in support of the rebel claims,
Mr.. Evarts offers no evidence whatever to
sustain this statement. He has no proofs
and can get none for it. The testimony
is overwhelmingly the other way; and, as
we suppose Mr.. Evarts to be a reader o.
New York papers, he must have known
it. Within the past week, from day to day
therehave appeared in the telegraphic and
other columns of the New York dailies
statements signed by Governors, Senators
members of Congress, candidates fol
Presidential electors and other public
men of high station and character in the
principal Southern States, ratifying Gov
| ernor Tilden's letter in word and spirit
declaring that they regard the debts in
question as barred from payment by the
Fourteenth amendment, by the law of ma.
tions and by the decision Of the United
Statet Supreme Court, and that the South
ern people have no hope, desire or eX
pectation that any of those debts will be
paid by the Federal Government.

Mr.. STANBERRY 8 LETTER.-AS has
been announced the Hon. Henry Stan
berry, of Cincinnati, ex-Attorney Gener-
al of the United States, has written an
able constitutional argument upon the
South Carolina case, condemning the use
of federal troops in the State. Among
other things he said:
"In all our political history, from the
beginning down to the centennial year, 1
cannot call to mind any armed interven-
ton by the federal government, based
upon q proclamation and the military
orders in question except to put down an
insurrection. The uprising of the people
of Rhode Island to overthrow the govern
ment of that State and change its consti-
tuition by force of arms, commonly called
the Dorr rebellion, was of that charac-
ter. There has been great deal of
domestic violence in many of the States;
unlawful combinations to violate the
rights of its citizens and substitute Lynch
law in place of the lawful authority, and
vigilence committees in place of the re-
gular State officials, and all these have
been wisly left to be dealt with by the
local authority. Our people have tradi-
tional dread of military interference.
They prefer that their political contests
and their individual rights shall be kept
sacred from the military power. 1mper-
feet as the civil law and local power of Il
State may be in giving them the protec-
| ton, they will never consent to come un-
der abe power of the military, except in
| those extreme cases where force must be
opposed by superior force to preserve the
State"

Public Op -nion.

The news from other states is propiti-
ous. We shall certainly carry the South
solid, and also New York, Indiana, Con-
necticut aud New Jersey. Without the
last two victory would be certain, but we
would welcome all who come, as an as
surance that the heart of the North-the
great, generous, patriotic North is with
us. Let us not shame this friendship by
any weak, indecsive action. We want
not feeble victory, but a rousing majori-
ty. The enemy are appalled,, weakened
and demoralized by the result of the Oc-
tober elections. Their desperate efforts
to rally their forces have been in vain.
