Caesars Threat.

The Presidents organ, in its issue Of yes
terday, says:
"There are but thirty-two counties in
South Carolina. II Republicans will at
tempt to vote at but three precincts in each
county it will enable the, Government to
place squad OF twenty soldiers at each OF
these, under the command Of trusted subal-
terms, who can easily see to it that Amerl-
car citizens are not shot down in cold blood
simply for voting for the candidates OF their
choice. Two thousand soldiers in the Pal
metto State will be quite enough to teach
Wade Hampton and his followers that this
is indeed free republic"
Two thousand SOLDIERS will teach the
people OF South Carolina that "this is a
FREE REPUBLIC"!
That is ludicrous as well AS alarming.
Ludicrous, because it is such funny way
OF teaching the principles OF free govern
ment; and alarming, because it foreshadows
the very trouble which we yesterday point
cd out. The House OF Representatives
would never consent to the counting oil
South Cardinals vote for HAYES If it were
gained for him in the manner proposed by
the Presidents organ.

LYING AND SrEALrE6.-The papers tell OF

sisters quite iorgetful Of the moral law, and
began to give them series Of practical dis
courses against lying and stealing. The
congregation stood it for a Sunday or two,
and then they revolted, one OF the deacons
being their spokesman, and addressing their
preacher thus: eve like you berry much,
and want to make it conf ble for you; but
de fac is, you see, we don't like dis preach
i'm about lynn an stealin'--we must hat
our Sundays for 'iigion." The whole cam

ing, the lying, and the general acts OF ras.
