P1CKENs, S. O., THURSDAY, MAY II, 1876

In 1874 We "took advantage" of q
split in the party "to elect" Green and
Delany--- ono good Radical and the
other a negro.--The knowing ones
assured US that at last we had "good
thing" and that all we had to do was
to lay aside prejudice and, enjoy the
rewards of victory. Well, we tried it,
but for the want of votes, we would
have won.

that was disgrace even to disgraced
party. The Hon. Daniel II. Cham>

disgraceful, swindling, banking opera

lain. Yet, there are those who would
have us believe this Honorable gentle
man an innocent lamb; who would
have us shut our eyes to the past and
believe him honest, good and true.

prehend the teachings of the past, and
the late utterances of tho Republican

uniting to q man, will fall back upon
itself as the only hope OF redeeming the
State. We have trusted to others
long enough; we must now trust in
ourselves.-Laurensville Herald.

NO. s.,

the official document that they asked
for should bo forwarded at once to
United States Marshal Robert MUIR
ray, in Now York, and through him
to the officers charged with the exc
cution of Beal.
After breakfast Lincoln informed
Seward, Secretary of State, what ho
had done or promised to do. Seward
said that it must not be; that public
sentiment in the North demanded
that Bcal should bo hung. He de~
clared that to pardon Beal would dis
courage enlistment, lengthen tho war,
and insult the sentiment that called
tor blood. He chided Lincoln for
making such promises without ask-
ing tho advice of his Cabinet, or ad.
vising with himself, Seward on State
policy. AS the argument grow con-
tentious, Seward declard that if the
conduct of the war was to be trifled
with by appeals for humanity he
should get out of tho Cabinet and use
his influence against the President,
and should charge him with being in
sympathy with the South. Lincoln
yielded and Beal was executed. Tho
reaction to Lincoln's nervous system
was such that for days he was far
from we'll.
Tho effect on Booth was terrlble.-
lie raved like madman, and in his
frenzy swore that Lincoln and Seward
should both pay for the grief and
agony he had been put to- From the
death of Beal, Booth brooded venge~
ance for that which he considered
personal affront. His rage took in
Seward, and he engaged Harold, At
sorodt and others TO avonge Beaps
death by killing Seward, while he,
Booth, wreaked human vengeance on
the President. At last camo the hour.
Booth killed Lincoln. His friends
and tho relative or avengers of Beal
tried thoir best to kill Seward, and
when they left him stabbed, bleeding,
and limp as cloth, as he rolled over
behind the bed whereon they found
him, they supposed thcir work was
completely dono.
Our story is told. We have givon
tho truth OF history, and told exactly
why Abraham Lincoln, the humane
President of the United States, was
killed.

The Black Thursday Judges.

The Charleston Bar have taken a
bold and decisive stand, says the
News and Courier. They agree to
tho legal proposition that Judges
Reed and Shaw, although elected
Tor an unexpired term, are in office
under the Constitution, and are en-
tilted to serve for the full term OF
four years from the day of their elec
ton, and that the election OF Whip
per in the place of Judge Reel, and
OF Moses, Jr., in the place of Judge
Shaw, was unlawful and void. They
therefore uphold Governor Chamber.
lain in his refusal to issue commise
sions to the persons who claim to
have been elected and were not cleo
tod; and they pledge to Judge Reed
their support in every way he can
devise or may require. They further
declare their determination not to
recognize Whipper as Circuit Judge
in this County, and that they will
resist any attempt on his part to en-
force his right to the office.
This is a proper beginning, but we
do not think OF Charleston alone.-
There is Orangeburg to care for, and
it is hoped that the Bar there will
think favorably of what has been
done here and will declare similar
conclusions and determinations Only
one lawyer in Charleston declined to
sign the letter to Judge Reed, and
with a like,unanimity in Orangeburg,
the prospect Of peaceful victory
will be bright.
The Counties in Judge Shaw's Cir.
cult have already spoken boldly and
decisively about their pretender, exc
Governor Moses, and the line agreed
upon in this Circuit will no doubt be
satisfactory to them. They can count
on Judge Shaw's assent to request
similar to that made OF Judge Reed,
and the moral effects of it will be ex-
cellent. Sumpter, spirited and reso-
lutte, can we'll take the lead again.
The declaration of the Charleston
Bar will be understood everywhere.
1t has only one meaning, which is
that Whipper is not Judge, and shall
not cit as Judge in this County. The
law will be exhausted in this effort to
keep out the usurper; and the law, in
so clear case, ought to be sufficient.
But if the law does not suffice to
keep Whipper out, he will be kept
out. That is the declaration of the
Charleston Bar, who, in this, are the
spokesmen of the whole body OF re.
spectacle citizens.

Why Lincoln was Assassinated.


Among tho chosen friends of John
Wilkes Booths boyhood was DASH
ing, chivalrous young man named
John I. Beal, whose homo was in tho
beautiful Shenandoah Valley not far
from Winchester. Damon and Py-
thlas were not more attached to zach
other than wore Booth and Beal.-
Beal was Southern in his sympathios,
and planned raids on Northern cities.
and at last was captured at or near
Buffalo, tried for piracy on Northern
lakes, and sentenced to bo hanged on
Bodloe's Island. Ono afternoon, in
tho city of Washington, while Beal
was undor sentence of death, there
alightod from % carriage two mon,
who walked into the room occupied
by Washington Mclean of Cincinnati,
who was at the time in Washington
IN The interest of his business. These
mon who called were Senator Hale of
New Hampshire and John Wilkes
Booth. Booth was anxious to save
the life of Beal, his chum and conf
dcntlal personal friend. He had in
tercsCcd MIR. Hale in his behalf. Thoy
lmportunod Mclean to go with them
to the President, as Democrat-as
friend OF Booth-as man who had
much influence with Mr.. Lincoln. and
to vouch with Mr.. Hale for any prom
ises Booth might make in return for
this great favor to him. After q pro.
tracted interview Mclean accompa-
MED Hale and Booth in carriage to
the residence of J. w. Fornoy, who
was then in bed, tho hour being lato.
Forney was awakened from his sleep
and told tho object of his call. His
sympathis were enlisted, as he was
always ready to serve his friends.
1t was an hour or moro past mid
night when Hale, Forney, Mclean,
and Booth were driven to the White
House. The guard, at the request of
Fornoy, admitted the carriage to tho
grounds. Mr.. Lincoln was called
from his sleep, and thero, in the dead
of night, he sat and listoned to the
1prayors of Booth and Endorsements of
those who came with him to ask the
favor of Executive clemoncy. This in~
terview lasted TIL in the morning.
There was not dry oye in the ROOM
as Booth knelt at the feet of Lincoln,
clasped his knees with his hands, and
begged him to spare the life of ono
mana personal fricnd-who, in serv
ing the ones he loved, had como to
tho door of death.
Booth told all. He told how, long
before, in fit of passion to do somo
bold decd, he had joined in conspi.
racy to abduct the President and to
hold him as hostage for tho release of
cortain military prisoners who were
Booths friends, and who, it was
thought, woro to bo shot. Ho told of
the meetings they had hold at tho
house Of Mrs. Surratt, and that all of
that plan had fallen to the ground
long before. He offered his services
at any time and in any place or ca
pacity, FREQ Of cost or fearless of con-
sequences. The eminent gontlomon
who were there with him Joined in
the request that the prayer of Booth
bo granted, and that Bcal should bo
pardonod. At last President Lincoln,
with tears streaming down his face,
took Booth by the hands, bado him
rise and stand like q man, and gave
him his promise that Boal should be
pardonod Ho asked the party to
depart that ho might gain rest for the
work of the morrow, and said that
