BEAR YOUR BREAST TO THE EN-
Envy

Such are the words of the gallant
Hampton, the leader of the Demoe-
racy, of honesty and equal rights in
South Carolina, says the Rome News.
That State is the special pet Of Pres
ident Grant, and he comes to the aid
of Chamberlain, the Radical Cover
nor, with all the available force in
the department of the Atlantic.
Gen. Rugar makes his headquarters
at Columbia, and between twenty
five hundred and three thousand
troops are placed at his command, in
addition to Chamberlain's negro mi
litia, numbering not less than thirty
thousand men. all armed with the
best improved guns. The blue coats
are stru;ting around, looking for q
foe, but Hampton, the brave defend
ers of Southern hon"r in the days that
tried mems souls, meets there witt
drawer words than he ever spoke or
the battle field. Then he had hi'
own good arm strengthened by bis
trusty sword, and his followers arm
ed and strong in their own defence
Then he met the enemy on equa
terms, and with valor envied by
the bravest Of the brave, and feared
and respected by his adversary
But now his sabre has been turned
into a plow>share, and his enemy as
saults him with cannon and mus ket,
and in The face of the gitloring bay
onet, and the beat of the drum, he
stands forth and councils his people
to peace. "lf the soldiers fire upon
you, bare your breast and receive
the fire without murDur. Give nc
cause for riot-resent no insult,
trust in God and the Instability OF
truth and Justice" Glorious, noble
Hampton, a terror to his enemy in
war, but in peace, a Spartan of the
true type. Ouce he conquered with
the sword, now with The banner of
truth and justice. Constitutional lib
erty, the bulwark of American inde~
pendence, i, trod underfoot in South
Carolina, and the purpose is SO pail
pable, so transparent, that if done
by honest men, they would blush at
their own haudiwork. But is it done
by honest men, for honest purposes 7

Rhode Island does no permit for>
eign>born citizens to vote unless they
have a certain property qualification
And that State is claimed for Hayes.
Indianapolis Sentinel.
But for Rhode Islands American
Alliance property qualification, that
State would unquesiionably be Dem~
Ocratic. The property qualification,
however, prevents several thousand
citizens, including large number
of men whe served honorabIy in the
Union army, from voting. There's
fore the State will probably go for
Hayes. Rhode Island enjoys the
double distinction of being the most
decided Republican State in the I'm

A STRUGGLE WITH AN EAGLE.

Mr.. John F. Carpenter. station
agent at Ashton, was out duck hunt
ing near here recently, when he saw
very large bird flying over the
tree-tops, about two hundred yards
high. He fired, and brought it down.
he ran to pick it up, and found it ly>
on its back, alive, and with bill and
talons open, ready for fight. Mr..
Carpenter attempted to take it by its
feet, but tie bird fastened its claws
into his hands, and he was imprison>
ed by a wounded black American
eagle. There was severe tussle
for a few minutes, but the man cons
quered, though bis hands we're very
badly scratched in the fight The
eagles wings were injured, but it is
thought they are not borken, and
that it will live. Providence Journal.

THE election of Dabney is GER
taiLty if every Democrat will do his
duty next Tuesday. Work hard

"AND thus it is that the great
name, the great authority of the Re,
publican party in its national capaci>
ty, is being used this very moment
to uphold the most atrocious system
of government which thi. country
over saw. A party which cannot
live and prosper unless it be sup
ported by corruption; party that
cannot prosper unless it be supported
by revival Of the old war feeling
and by tearing open again the wounds
from which the people of the United
States have bled so long; such par
ty, when it has come TO that, does
not deserve to live"
The above remarks have the right
ring about them. They are true and
strongly put, and accurately describe
the Republican party and it's methods
But who is their author9 1t is Car
Schu z, and SO he spoke for years
ago. Now, however, he is engaged
in upholding "the most atrocious sys,
tenn of government this country ever
saw" and in tearing open the old
wounds Of the war. No wonder the
Germans are ashamed of Carl Schurz

JEALOUS WIvES-HOW A FIRM
WAS HELD INTACT.

Valentine Jobst, of Peoria, tells
the following good story of an incl
dent in real life, in Chicago;
There are three brothers in busi>
ess-butchers. All of them are
married, and in due course of time
as their families became intimate Sc
rious trouble arose. The wives be-
came jealous of one another, and
particularly so in the matter Of
clothes. If one of them had a new
dress the other two wanted to know
why they couldn't have new dresses
too. Little things added fuel to the
flame until it threatened to break up
the firm and estrange the brothers.
This none of the men desired. The
business was prosperous; they were
doing we'll and none of the three
wished to retire. They accordingly
called a family council, and after
consultation resolved that all inter
course between female members
should cease, save and except once
year. On one specified day all the
members of the three families come
together and hold a grand picnic
AT the close they separate and do
not meet again for twelvemonth. In
this way all jealousy and fault find
ing is done away with. There is no
one to carry tales back and forth;
no one to create hesrt>burning and
hatred. The men agreed together,
and the women agreed apart, and
there is the best of feeling on all
sides. 1t was good idea, and might
be acted upon to advantage in many
a firm we know of.

WHORRAH FOR FELTON, AND
HAYES"

We are told that while Maj. Har-
grove was making a speech for Eel,
ton at Cedartown last Saturday, an
old negro frequently cried out
"Whorrah for FELTON, and Hayes
That is the Majors ticket, and of
course he could not object, but some

WILL YOU GO INTO TIE NEW
PARTY.

The evidence is rapidly accumu
lating and it is now almost beyond
question that DR.. FELTON,, Gen. Wof
ford, DR.. Miller and few other such
prominent men, are determined to
make new party, with the negroes
as a basis, and then they hope to
carry off enough Of the whites to
give them a majority. The new
party leaders will really have no dis
tinct principles, and their object will
be to break up the organized Dem
ocratic party, and, under the cry of
corruption, set themselves most corr
rupilg elected to office. They ex-
pect the cooperation of all indepen>
dents. Beware OF them. Rome

A correspondent Of the New York
Herald writing from Columbia says:
The negroes of South Carolina are
by no means as docile and peaceful
as they have been represented
While unable to cope with the whites
in actual conflict, they are impuIsive
and can easily be aroused to frenzy.
irresponsible and under control of
INSCRIPTIONS leaders, they are, when
organized aud armed, a standing
menace. 1t is a notorious fact that
while arrests Of whites are made by
the Federal authorities the agents of
the State courts are invoked when
blacks are arrested. This is done
to impress the blacks with the belief
that the troops are to be used solely
against the whites.

THE fact that Chamberlain de-
chnes to advocate his claims to the
governorship before the people of
South Carolina on the stump after
the usual method, as Wade Hamp
ton is doing, but relies entirely upon
his black militia companies and the
United States troops to secure his
election, is an absolute confession of
his weakness and guarantee that
if elected by his own method he will
continue to rule the State as mill
tary tyrant. His election presents
q gloomy prospect to South Carolina

FELTON, CLAIMS THEM,

DR.. FELTON, said at Floyd Springs
on Saturday, the DIST inst that Dabo
ney had bought out Sheats, or in
duced him to run, to beat him, Fel>
ton. Dabney said in reply, that the
statement was one of DR.. FELTON, $
errors, or mistatements. But if it
was true, every one knows that NO
DEMOCRAT would vote for Sheats,
and what votes Sheats takes away
from FELTON,, will be from his own
Radical friends.
1t is one of the most remarkable
features of this campaign, the fight
between the simon pure Radicals
and DR.. FELTON,. The Doctor claims
by right the Radical vote of this
District, and any effort of the Radi-
Gals to vote their party for one of their
own men, is charged as an attack
upon DR.. FELTON, Is he running
as the Radical candidate From
the fuss that he makes over Sheats'
we should think that he
was. Now what interest has Col.
Dabney in this fight between the
two wings of the Radical party ?
None of them would vote for him.
He is making war on the Radical
party from every stand point. lie
neither asks (ayors at their hands, or
gives them. He expects to get his
election from the Democratic party,
and not from the Radical, therefore
10 has no interest in the fight for the
Radical vote.
