What We Hare Escaped.

Grant, Chandler and Cameron, are US
ing the army to elect Hayes without even
a pretence or semblance OF law. But what
would have been the reign of terror in the
South, and what the prospect of an hon
est election if the Force bill had passed?
That atrocious measure was deliberate
ly perfected in the secrecy of the Repub
lican caucus to meet just such an emer-
gency as this and to enable the President
to smother by military force the votes of
the people against his corrupt and arb-
trary Administration. We can see now
what terrible use would have been made
of the power sought, and the country
cannot be too grateful to the gallant mi
nority in the Forthy-third Congress who
killed the infamous scheme by brilliant
and persistent tilbustering. Their victory
was the salvation of American liberty.
Ifthe bill had passed, Gen. Grant would
probably have reelected himself instead
of attempting to appoint his successor in
the person of Hayes.

Two counties in North Carolina
which are side by side are nearly
equal in population, wealth, and i'm
portance. Edgecome county. where
the negroes are largely in excess of the
whites, is ruled by Republican carpet
baggers, and paid last year tax of
over $76, 900. Pitt county, where the
Democrats are in power, taxed its
citizens only $11, 900. Under the
system of applied Grantism in Edge
combe, thirty paupers cost the tax
payers more than the entire county ex-
penses of Pitt. The Republicans are
making a strong effort to extend the
Edgecombe system to every county in
the State. The only way in which the
people of North Carolina can prevent
the spread of corruption, thievery and
oppressive taxation is open to them.
Let them elect Vance in November,
and also give rousing majority for
Uncle Sam Tilden, the uncomprising
enemy of all such rascality as that
which fourishes under Republican
rule in Edgecombe county.

SPEECH OF HESTER cIYMEH.
Hester Clymer was introduced and
spoke as follows:
The Senator from Delaware has so
thoroughly eXhaustedthe subject, and the
hour is SO late that it would be work of
sup ererogation for me to attempt to ar
que the issues which are now dividing the
American people. 1t was my fortune in
the discharge Of the duty imposed-not
sought or desired on my part but as an
instrument in the hands of the Democra-
| tic party to discover fraud, corruption and
malfeasance in one of the high places in
this Government, and while it was the
| fortune Of the committee of which 1 had
| the honor to be the chief, to produce evil
dence which in itself carried conviction
to the heart of every honest man-al-
though it did not to the requisite consti-
tutional majority of the Republican SEN
| ate, that there was guilt, though, while it
was my misfortune, as representing that
comittee, to do this, yet there was not
| committee in that House investigating
any other department which, if the wit
nesses had been equally truthful and
honest as those were before the one l re-
presented that would not have convinced
every official investigated by them. l say
now from my belief, from what is my
knowledge and say it not only with re-
ference to the Executive Department OF
this Government itself. (Applause.) For
l say to you-and say it well under
standing the responsibility which may at
tach to my remarks, and willing to bear
it-that if ever there was any impeach-
ment and liable to its penalties it is the
present President Of the United States.
| (Applause, long continued.) And say
to you that of my own knowledge, by
reason of the investigations made by my
| own committee, that he has been defiant
| of law and that he has purposely ignored
the provisions of the statutes and that he
has been guilty of high crimes and mis-
demeanors. He has perverted his powers
to corrupt purposes. And say too, that
if it were not that his term is to end with
in few months by the will of the people
he would have been presented to the SEN
ate ofthe United States for trial for high
crimes and misdemeanors, and all this
| that we know by the name of Grantism is
to be perpetuated if Rutherford b. Hayes
is elected President, because he was nomi-
mated by the men within the ranks of
the Republican party. who represent
Grantism pure and simple.

The south Carolina Negroes,

The troubles in the rice plantations on
the Combahee river have broken out
afresh. A Charlestown telegram says
the strikers are brutally beating all the
colored hands whom they find working.
Some of them have come to Charlestown
to appeal to the United States Court for
protection and redress. The strikers be-
ing masters of the situation, and the of
ficials in the rice district powerless, the
planters are said to be in despair about
harvesting the crop.-All such troubles
with negroes increase the price OF rice
and sugar.

The August number of the Re-
public magazine contains valuable
material for the campaign. The
opening article, 1.-THE New Conspi-
racy,' will prove invaluable to public
speakers and others who are to take
an active part ir the canvass. It
shows the character of the legisla-
ton proposed by Democracy, and
warns the nation of impending bank
ruptcy should Democracy obtain
power. "The Republican Party, has
it been Faithful to its Trust 2" is
another article which will have great
weight wherever read. It is a re-
view of the past fifteen years and
shows the magnitude of the work
done by the Republican party. The

Our Comfy Ticket Z

The Republican County Conven.
ton held last Saturday was well at
tended, every township being fully
represented.
For Clerk of the Court, Mr.. Mar.
tin Hughey, of this place, was nom
mated on the first ballot. He is a
young man, but is well qualified for
the position and is very popular
where he is best known, having been
elected Township and Corporation
Clerk last Spring by large msiority.
If elected, as we think he win be, he
will make a good officer.
For the responsible and impor-
tant office of Commissioner there
were several candidates il, tha field,
all good men, and the SJhtsst be-
tween them was quite spirited. On
the 9th ballot, the choice fell upon
Henry H. Redkey, of Concord tip.
Mr.. Redkey held the Office of Com
missioner for two terms several years
ago, and proved himself ons of the
ablest and most faithful Officers the
county ever had. His location in the
southern part of the county ) favor
able to his election, as thefetiring
Commissioner, Mr.. McConLaughey,
is from that part of the count, which
has no other member of the Board.
For Surveyor, Mr.. W. j. Boyd, of
Greenfield, was nominated. He
formerly held the Office fol several
years, and we believe gave general
satisfaction, as he will do again, if
elected, of which there is little doubt.
Jonathan Williams, Esq, Of Penn
tp., was nominated for lnfrmary
Director. He is an old and highly
citizen, who is eninently
qualified for the Office, and if elected
will discharge its duties t. the sat
isfaction of all.
The Convention showed it, wisdom
in the choice of good men for the
various Offices, and in the proper distri-
button of the candidates, and their
election is certain, if the necessary
effort be made by the Republicans
of the county.

Dickey.

From the reports received here,
Mr.. Dickey bids fair to accomplish
his defeat by his own conduct The
District is largely Democratic on
square political, issue but Mr.. Diekeys
friends should impress it upon his
mind that the time has gone by when
this or any other District will be
content to be represented In Congress
by man who, In spite of reported re-
formation, and even pending his
election, cannot refrain from indulg-
ing in 'glorious sprees," to the dis
grace of both himself and his expect
ed constituents. Only so late as
this week, it is currently stated
that Mr.. Dickey visited Cincinnati
and indulged his appetite to the full
est for several days in succession.
/ as a private individual Mr.. Dickey
eoBld do this without accountability
except to himself, but as candidate
for Congress he is responsible to
the entire District, who will not look
leniently upon such disgraeeful con-
duct.
We will not go back at this time
to scenes recently witnessed In this
CITY, in which Mr.. Dickey was CEN
tral figure, or refer specially to other
scandalous reports in circulation
concerning him, but having been
put in nomination for high and re-
sponsible position, he can at least
expect to be held to a rigid aecounta-
bility for his personal behavior since
that event [Chillicothe Register,
Aug. 5.
We may add to the above, that we
are informed, on good authority,
that Mr.. Dickey indulged in ''spree"
at Ripley, only few days before
his nomination, as can be vouched
for by respectable citizens of that
neigborhood.

Mr.. Dickey's Prospec

| The opposition to the nomination Of Mr.. Dickey
in the ranks of his own party, shows 10 signs of
abatement, but on the contrary seems 10 be daily
growing stronger and spreading morewiiely thro'
out the district. The more the people become ac-
quainted with the palpable unfairness and trickery
by which he secured his nomination, the more they
are disgusted and the stronger is their determina-
tion to defeat him. Add to this his uDitness for
the Office, owing to his incorporate habits, which
are notorious wherever he is personally Known, to-
gether with his grossly incompetent anf vasteful
administration Ito say the least OFT Of tae 01fce
of Turnpike Engineer, which he held for several
years in this county, and it is easyto understand
why many of the best men of his party not only re-
fuse to support him, but openly declare their inten-
tion to defeat him by all honorable means.
Another chapter in the history of the barefaced
trckery and unfarness practlsed In the Convention
by the friends of Mr.. Dickey is elsewhere present
ed by lifelong Democrat of this county, who had
the hardihood to attempt to be candidate for the
nomination against Mr.. Dickey, and who shows
with what studied insult and contempt he was
treated by Mr.. Dickeys friendships name not be-
ing allowed to come before the Convention at all,
lest it might interfere with Dickey's chances for
the nomination.
Mr.. Henry Rhoades, the gentleman referred to,
is well known in this county as ardent Demo-
crat who has been stesdfast in his devotion to the
party and has labored zeaously for its success yet
this is the contemptuous manner in which he was
slaughtered 'n the house of his friends, (D solely
to crafty the personal ambition of Mr. Dickeyi
Mr.. Rhoades shows a manly and proper spirit
in refusing to submit tamely to such an outrage,
and his declared determination to run as an inde-
pendent candidate against Mr.. Dickey shows that
he is in earnest and means business. We call at
teniOn to his card "To the Voters of the eth Con-
gressonal District" which will be found IN another
column, and also to his announcement as an indie
pendent candidate for Congress.
Altogether, the signs are decidedly unfavcrable
for Mr. Dickey, and in spite OF the large Demo-
cratic majority in the district last fall it would not
be at all surprising if when the election comes
round he should find himself distanced in the Con-
gressonal race, and lose after all the coveted
prize-to obtain which he and his friends have re-
sorted to such unfair and unscrupulous means.

TWhole No. 2O9S.
School Commissioner
Smart.

The Sandusky Register has re-
Gently brought a very serious charge
against this officer, which, if true,
should cause his immediate dismis-
sal from office. Thus far he has
neither denied the charge nor de-
manded an investigation-or if he
has done either, we have seen no no.
tiee of the fact in the newspapers of
the State To remain silent under
such an accusation. when made posi-
lively by respectable journal, as in
this instance, Will not satisfy the
people of his innocence, but will
rather have the contrary tendency.
If innocent, Mr. Smart owes it to
himself and to the State, to demand
a thorough investigation, without
delay; and If guilty, he shoald rs-
sign his Office at once. Meantime
we deem it due to our readers to
publish the Registers charge in its
own language, as follows:
''One of these stories is easily told. Commits
sioner Smart is married man. He has. so far
his wife or friends concerned, no trouble, pres
ent or prospective, with his wife, but apparently
lives with his wife and children in perfect peace
and marital concord. Smart has been for some
time frequent visitor to this city. His visits to
were manifestly not in the line of his duty as a
/ Ouhlic officer For inataDcp- he reached This ClfY
on certain Friday evening and left on Monday
morning following, period when he could not
visit the public schools, and during which time he
did not even call upon the Superintendent Of the
Schools, or upon the members of the Board Of Ed
ucation. His visits TO this city were wholly unoi-
cial, and to young lady teacher When accused
of improper intimacy with this innocent young
lady Smart replied that he had separated from his
wife, and intended to procure q divorce and then
marry the young lady in question. The young
ladys friends in this city, regarding such an excuse
for his conduct very thin, pressed Tor furtner an
swer to the complaints Smart then stated that
some two or three years ago he and ms WlIe mad
agreed to separate; that to facilitate a divorce
| they propOee to live apart until such time as the
law required for the granting OF divorce and that
then he proposed to marry another young lady.
We do not believe Smart intended to procurea
divorce from his wife, and we have the best Of in
formation that his wife knows nothing OF MS con-
duct much less of his professed intention 70 get nd
of her. We know nothing ourselves OF Smarts
conduct, but we bave reliable Information Wedo
know, however, that his conduct IN this CITY mas
been disgrace 10 MN anu u MS OnhSS sne
lady with whom he has been so intimate. That
he is man of bad character, and that he has taken
advantage of his position as State school Commls-
sioner to destroy the reputation OF an SuHAoie
Young lady we have no doubt These are the
facts as we have them and we now leave it to the
Republic to pursue the subject as much tArtner ss
il thinks advisable
P. S. Since the above was in
type. we see it stated that Mr.. Smart
has written to the Springfield Re-
public, denying the truth of the
charge.
