partylat all--only mass Of deluded
negroes, without education, and
without experience, bound, us they
thought. by solemn oath to follow
the lead Of the party "bosses." 1t
was only natural, therefore, that
these so-called governors had no
real power at all-except that power
for evil which came of their infiu-
once over the colored people.
These governors wero totally help
less to preserve the peace and Dig

go whining to Grant for Federal

each of these and Governor Hamp.

DIED,

4 In Winnsboro, on Saturday even
ing, December 16, at s O'clock.
MNs, MAnaAREr II. Law, wife of Mr..
james w. Law, and daughter of the
late Rev. NJ. ID. fraser.
The death of this estimablo lady
has cast gloom over orr entire
community, for she was one whose
cheerful, pleasant face seemed to
shed sunshine and brightness on all
around her whose very presence
brought with it joy and pleasure.
Born and reared in this town, eyory
one knew her worth. Whatever
station Of lifo she was called to fill,
she adorned and beautifed. As a
child, as n maiden, ay q daughter, as
n sister es q wife and as a mother, she
was always noted for her affection
and love. As u neighbor and friend
she wac thoughtful, affectionato and
sympathzing as % companion and
ahsocinte she WAS agreeable and in
shuctivo end as u devoted disciple
OF the Lord Jesus, she was humble.
faithful and obedient Her piety
was beautiful to behold. It mould.
Ell her whole life, controlled hcr
every action, governed hor in her
thoughta and words, and led her
onward day by day, in the path of
holiness. Her mind was well
stored with the fundamental
doctrines of the Bible, and she
loved to converse upon them; and
her expressive countenance would
indicate her pleasure and assent to
the truths to which she listened
from the sacred desk, while her
words of approval have often encour-
aged and strengthened her pastor.
Early in life, eho gave her young
ana innocent heart to the Lord, and
always Ii we'd a most exemplary, con-
sistent Christian life, and when at
length tho summons came to call
her away Sfrom all she held 80 dear
upon earth, from a devoted husband
from her five little children, from
her aged and affe;tionate mother
and from her brothers whom she
deeply loved, she was found ready
and watching for the Master.
Death had no terrors for her If it
WAS her Heavenly Fathers will that
she should depart and be with
Christ, she nwas willing. and vet it
was but natural that she should
cl1ng consciously to life, for she had |
so much to live for. She has gone
to her reward, leaving behind her the
precious memories of her spotless
life. Earth is poorer now than it
was but Heaven is infinitely richer.
That bright spirit, ,sarctifed and made
while in the blood of the Lamb, is
now before the throne of God, ador-
ing tho love of her Redeemer.
Another sweet voice is added to the
Heavenly choir, another redeemed
soul is safe in Paradise.
On Slbbath evening her remains
wero followed to their last resting
place, in the Presbyterian grave
yard, by a large concourse of friends
thus sadly manifesting the universal
in which she was held, and
IL the sympathy felt for the bereavcd

There is between tho harangue of
Chamberlain before the Bayonet
House and the Radical Senators,
md the inaugural address of Gov
ernor Hampton, difference that is
at once striking, and indicative of
the character of the two men. The
one is false, slanderous, inflammatory
and self-laudatory; tho other is a
calm, manly, statesmanlike review
OF the condition of affairs in this
State, accompanied with m ayowed
determination to see that the laws
Shall be impartially executed, and
that every means be employed to
orms peace and prosperity to the
whole people. The one is the
speech OF an insincere demagogue,
the falsity of whose pretensions has
long since been exposed the other
10 the expression, in simple terms,
ola patriots determination to do
his whole duty in an, Office to which
he was called by the people, without
ny seeking on his part nThe g3two

Senator Robertson recently sent
tho following telegram to President
Grant: 81 500 no disposition on the
part of any one here to break the
peace at this time. I hope the
Federal administration will not
attempt to interfere in the settle
ment of our State uff,,irs. III tilut
case I am satisfied that a peaceful
and legal solution can be reached"
The Senator deserves commentator
for his effort to bring Oh change in
the Presidents attitude in the pres
ent issue i'll this State. He is rather
wrong in hoping that "thc Federal
administration will not interfere"-
for it has alleady interfered in O
manner and to al extent that are q
disgrace to the American flag and
a blot on American civilization.
What the taxpayers Of South Caro-
lima want, is that the President
cease to interfere, and lot the Cham
berlain Grew stand on their own
merits and by their own strength.
Then matters would soon be settled,
and that too withoutany difficulty or
disturbance whatever.
