THE colored laborers on the Combshee
river. in South Carolina, have ''struck" for
higher wages, and refuse to return to the
rice fields until they are paid enough to
keep soul and body together. This has
greatly displeased Governor Chamberlain,
and a few days since he commissioned a
well known rebel, named R. H. Colcock, q
trial justice, with instructions to arrest these
unhappy children of toll, and confne them
in jail upon bread and water until they
promise to resume faithfully their labors
upon the plantations. 1t appears that
Chamberlain is tireless in his efforts to de-
grade the honest yeomanry of his State
since he discovered that they have re-
nounced him and all his villainies under
the thin guise of reform

In THE investigation now proceeding in
New York, regarding the manner in which
Supervisor Davenport expended the secret
service funds in 1872, one Conz, detective,
testified last Friday as follows:
"ShortlY before the election of 1872 the funds
of the Department became nearly exhausted,
and Whitley, by personal application to
Solicitor General Bristow, then in this city,
procured an immediate remittance from Wash
ington Of 5000, with the understanding that
it was to be accounted for in the next year s
appropriations; whether it was or not the
witness did not know
There is probably not word of truth in
this somewhat serious charge against Sec
retary Bristow, and it was made public, no
doubt, for the purpose Of conveying the
impression that he has been engaged in
what is known as machine politics. "
Carl Schurz should rise and explain.

MUcu controversy is going on with ref
eIence to the opening of the Centennial
Exposition at Philadelphia on Sundays.
Why cannot this matter be compromised
by arranging series of religious services
in Memorial Hall for the benefit of those
strangers who desire to 60 there on Sun
dayst No doubt either Moody and Sankey
or Hammond and Bentley will gladly lend
their assistance, and the Gilmore band or
Theodore Thomas orchestra could give
concerts Of sacred music on those days,
thus utilizing this great. enterprise in the
interest of grand revival of true religion
By the appointment OF a religious commit
tee and the selection of an efficient chap
lain the services could be made most ex-
cellent and reformatory feature, whose in
fluences would eventually become world
wide. Let the Commission seriously con-

practical prohibition of the elective fran

plish the purposes Of the authors Of all
these wrongs, murder, with an assurance
of protection at the hands Of the Demo.
cratic courts and iuries. Is Ii not time,
high time, therefore, that the General Gov
ernment in view of these repeated out
RACES, in all of the Southern States, as
sumed an attitude that would at once and
forever put an end to these "disorders" in
which only those who for Opinions SAX"
are Republicans are the victims. An election
ID either the Petersburg or Norfolk Con-
gressional districts of Virginia, so far as
fair expression of opinion is concerned, is
but the merest sham. 1t is a mockery of
the boasted freedom guaranteed by the
Constitution. In both districts the Repub-
lican majorities are overwhelmingly large,
yet it is extremely doubtful whether
either will ever again be represented by q
Republican, unless the fends who now
control elections there are forced by the
strong arm Of power to submit to fair ex-
preston of opinion by qualified voters.
The Republicans ask nothing more, and,
in our opinion, it is clearly the duty of the
Government to see that they have it.
Further than this, it would be movement
in the interest of peace. If these outrages
continue point will have been reached
beyond which the victims may deem that
patience has ceased to be a viftue;" then,
OF course, the Government will be COM
peDed to interfere, and the innocent be
made to appear the guilty party. When
outrsges like those which have recently
occurred in Petersburg not only go un-
whipped Of justice, but are condoned by the
local authorities and commended by the
Democratic press, it Is time that Southern
Republicans should demand the protection
of life and liberty guaranteed to them by
the law of the land. If the heels of some
of the miscreants in the employ Of the
Democracy were made to dangle in the
air it could not fail to have salutory effect
upon their surviving friends. Itmsy come
to this at last.

Mr.. BLAINE's explanation Of the latest
charges against him is acceptable to the
majority of his friends, The fact that he
is continually compelled to make these ex-
plantations is having the effect to create a
sympathy in his favor as the victim of per-
secution. At the same time there are those
among the most devoted friends of the Re-
publican cause who believe it would be bad
policy to nominate any man for the high
office to which Mr.. Blaine aspires whose
record presents so many points of attack
This class advances the argument that the
campaign should be conducted aggres-
sively by the Republicans from the out
set, and that the time of our stump
speakers should not be consumed in
defending any mans record. There is a
cold-heartedness about this argument be-
cause it shows an inclination to abandon
an innocent man to the merciless persecu-
tions of unscrupuious enemies.

THE only cases in which officers of the
House have been dismissed during the
history Of the Congresses have been when
the Democrats were in the majority. In
the Thirty-fifth Congress, when the late
James L. Orr was Speaker of the House,
Doorkeeper Hackney was dismissed for
improperly exscting commissions or
bonuses from his subordinates. There are
several singular condolences in these two
cases Of Hackney and Fitzhugh. Both
Houses were Democratic in politics; the
last Democratic House preceding the war
and the first Democratic House subsequent
to the war; the Office vacated was Door
keeper; both Hackney and Fitzhugh
hailed from Virginia as the State of their
nativity, and both were succeeded by
Democrats from NsH jersey. Nj, Wright

IT MAY BE instructive to the "gushers" of
the country to be informed of some of the
means which the renegade Governor of South
Carolina resorts to to replenish his exchequer
and obtain the necessary funds to run his
picayune sheet, the Union-HeraId. One of
his recent schemes at levying blackmsil is
thus eloquently portrayed by correspondent
at Columbia, South Carolina:
"You doubtless remember that the original
owners Of the Union Herald were Chamberlain,
Gardozo, Melton and Q; @. Putter. Melton and
Puffer having become disguised with the fire.
Quent drafts upon them to sustain the paper re-
linquished all claim to the same and presented
their shares to the Governor. Last winter when
the printing bill was carried to Chamberlain for
his approval he refused to sign II until the Re-
publican Printing Company, of which Messrs.
Jones and Woodruff are proprietors, paid into his
hands $4,000 for the shares above referred TO.
This little transaction was not generally known
until recently, when q highly respectable lady Of
Chester, named Mrs. De Grafenreid, a member
of one of the oldest families in that county,
brought an action against the Governors organ
for libel, that paper having pronounced her
prostitute In answer to the complaint the
Governor and Treasurer Cardozo ayerred that
Messrs. Jones and Woodruff were part owners of
the paper, and should be made a party to the
suit. The last named gentlemen, to save them
selves from the direful consequences of SO gross
libel, denied that they were bona fde owners OF
any interest in said paper, and declared that they
had bought the shares from Chamberlain as an
inducement to have him sign the printing bill.
1t thus appears that Chamberlain not only made
reputation as 'refOrmer' last winter, but. true
to his instincts he pocketed SO 900 with which to
keep alive his petite organ during the dull sum-
mer."
Verify has public opinion refrigerated when
decent newspapers can be found to extoll an
individual capable Of perpetrating such frauds
as this last transaction of Chamberlain's.

And now Mr.. Cox wants to investigate the

he is too late. 1S61-2-3-4 was the time for that
