Gov. CHAMBERLAIN of South Caro-
lima writes long letter about the re-
cent disgraceful occurrence in Ham
burg, s. C. where two armed mobs,
both acting in open defiance of law,
came In collision, with deplorable re-
suits. one white man and several ne
groes being killed. In this letter,
however, he fails to refer to one i'm
portant cause for such outbreaks of
violence, the misgovernment of the
unhappy State which he and his con-
federates of the old Scott Ring have
ruined. Not only have the most ig-
norant, degraded, and dishonest men
been appointed Trial Justices and to
other responsible offices by Chamber
lain and his predecessors of the same
political faith, but of late the opera
tlons of the higher courts have been
brought to stop for want of funds,
and Judges have been compelled to
dismiss their courts without proceed
ing of business because there was no
money to pay the jurors, and the jur-
ors were unable to procure food with
out it. In such condition of affairs
it is only natural that the dissorderlY
classes should prove troublesome.

RUBBER AND CAPCINE.

There Is scarcely branch OF human indus
try in which India Rubber has not in some
form found its way. Although widely known
and used, but few are aware OF its medicinal
viitues and great curative properties. Prac-
tical experiment has proven that it is natur-
al reservoir Of electricity, containing more
than any known substance or compound
Owing to this fact 1t has been used with sue
cess in curing Nervous complaints and Rheu-
metism that were invulnerable to drugs.
1t has also been discovered that India Rub
Der possesses all the properties valuable as
aspe i1c for Pulmonary complaints and cures
many forms of Consumption and Lung dis
cases. Combined with Capcipe 1t is unparal-
leled as Pain Relever, whether external
or internal. Nearly all the Surgeons have
adopted it on account OF its great healing
properties.
The most efectual way OF using the article
is in the form OF a perforated plaster. Ihe
extensive use of Ordinary PerfoI ated or Por.
GUS Plasters, is testimony to its merit.
dinary Rubber Porous Plaster Is that it acts
too slowly-requiring days and continuous
wear to relieve pain or to effect cure.
A celebrated Physician OF New York, who
has long made the medical properties OF Rut
Der a study has succeeded in max ing grea
improvement in Porous Plaster by int rOdut
ing Capcine, which oyercomes all the former
objections, causing the Plaster to do in ,

Hayes as a KefOrmer.

boSloH IObG
Hayes was in congress one term.
Corruption ragged and Toared like a sea
all about him. Nobody ever heard
that he lifted up his voice to protest
against the practices which were sud-
denly enrlching congressman and 60
vernment officials and impoverishing
the taxpaying people. He succumbed
to the situation. He never struck out
in bold and vigorous resistance to the
current as Tilden did. He made no
trouble fer anybody: was obscurely
amiable; obediently fell in with the
prevailing order of things; stuck close
to the comfortable shelter of his party,
and, in fine, in his whole brief career
gave no such offense to the rogues and
rascals who controlled legislation and
ran the government that they deemed
him unqualified for their purpose at
Cincinnati. His very first utterance
on receiving his nomination was to
his rival, Blaine, which was certainly
not very encouraging to reformers. OF
the two men, therefore, Tilden and
Hendricks carry out this gigantic work
of administrative reforms

Supplying Arms to Indians.

The Universal Peace Convention,
sitting at Philadelphia, goes no furtha
er than all other friends of humanity
in condemning the treachery of the
Federal Government in violating
solemn treaty. wi b the Sioux k direct
ly bringing on the war. All good men
agree in holding the Government re-
syonsible for the present troubles in
the Indian country. But in casting
about for means of relief, the peace
people differ widely from most other
persons who have made careful study
of the subject. The former have
nothing better to suggest than con-
tinuance of the Indian Bureau in the
hands of the politicians and civilians,
with the hope that that class Of men
may be much improved and cease rob-
bing and cheating the Indians. We
have but little faith in any radical
Improvement taking place in the In
terror Department for the present, and
would, therefore, revolutionize the
whole Indian business by incorpora-
ting it with the War Department. in
the belief that the regular army Off

swindle them, or goad them into fight.

self respected by the savages if it had
exclusive charge of them. The Indian
Bureau, as now run, is cause of their
alternate ridicule and wrath. In one
other respect the change would be
highly beneficial. The regular army
men would not sell guns and ammuni-
tion to the Indians, to be used, so3ner
or later, against our own soldiers. The
fine supply Of rifles and cartridges
which the Indians now have came
from the civil agents of the Bureau
who do not care how many emigrants
