Outrageous Abuse of Power.

Have tho people of tho country
any conception of the way in which
tho Deputy Marshals and United
States Commissioners abuse their
power i'll South Carolina Three
specimen cases were reported re-
Gently:
l. A colored Democrat named
White was speaking at q Democratic
meeting at Blackvillo on Thursday.
A Radical negro attempted to lul
White from the stand, and was
pushed aside by some white Demo
Gratis who were near by. For being
molested by tho Radical negro, the
Democrat, White, was arrested un-
dor the Enforcement Act The
Radical intimidatod the Democrat,
and tho Democrat was accused of
tho intimidation
9. A white man named Chapman,
at Blackville on Thursday, h,lrrahed
for Hampton. He was Immediately
collared by a colored United States
Marshal and dragged before the
United States Commissioner. His
attorney was denied admittanco to
the place where he was confined,
and on Thursday night Chapman
was still in custody. 1t is so made a

di latel
3. S. g. Williams and others were
arrested in Blackville under the
Enforcement Act. An examination
was had before United States Com
missioner Eaton. The counsel for
the defendants showed that there
was not title of evidence in sup,
port of the charge of intimidation,
and that, on the contrary, tho
mutual threats Of violence woro
founded upon personal mteccdcnt
ill-feeling entirely apart from
political considerations, and cul-
minating in the threats Of Bill Bull,
the complainant, to proceed to FL
lonton and throw his weight and
m1nhood' into an ins,rI cc!ionarv
m ovement, aimed against life and
pi ioperty. Mr.. Commissioner Eaton,
in reply, said II may rs wolf
state at once to you and save further
discussion, that I am acting under
instructions, and by these I must be
guidol. The United States m,-
thorities arc Informed by testimony
before them that n conspiracy exists
in Barnwell county against tho lives
ana political privileges of tho
colorod men. This conspiracy 1
am horc to ferret out and bring be-
fore our courts for punishment {;
and although tho evidence is weak,
it makes part of u great whole, and
as such, l feel bound in duty not to
reject it, and shall, therefore, re-
quire of these parties to find surety
for thoir appearance at Court in the
sum of 81 900 each" Can there be
anything moro monstrous thar this?
Upon the &C 2oavte statements Of
Governor Chamberlain and his
willing witnesses, the United States
decide that there is conspiracy in
Ba1nwoll, and, because of that mag
mary conspiracy, arrest and hold to
bail any citizen who is accused of
conspiracy, even when the evidence
is admitted to be weak Weak t?
Why, during tho examination by
Commissioner Eaton, the complains
ant, Bull, varied his testimony, in
presence Of the defendunts, from
wha he gave Mr. Eaton in private,
and the Commissioner said to him
with considerable aspcrity "You
people must stick to tho statements
you first make to me and be more
careful what you say You told me,
(reading from his notes,) whero,lpon
Bull taking the cue repeated his
original story. Bull told the lie,
and Mr.. Eaton taught him to stick
to it.
The three instances we have cited
arc fair samples of the character of
the arrests for political purposes,
under the enforcement Act in this
Statc.-NC7rs &c Courier.

Preference, not Prescription.

AT a large meeting of the Demo
cratic Club Of township no. !, held
on tho 23rd INST, the following
preamble and resolutions were
unanimously adopted:-
Whereas, it is the opinion of this
Dcmocratic Club that the charges
made against the Republican party,
and embraced in Sections 4.and Of
the Plstform of Principles adopted
by the State Democracy, are true,
and the origin and cause of the pres
cnt deplorable condition Of our
State; and achcreus, ovely honora-
bic effort has been and is continuing
to be ma lo by our citizens to on
llghtcn the colorcd man and laborer,
MP to the point Of political intelli-
Gcncc that will enable him to dis
cover that his true interest and wei
fare lie in his renouncing allegiance
to said party and uniting with us in
our efforts at reform and aohcreos
many such men pcrsistcntly and tc-
naciously refuse to aid lis in bring
ing about the reform we so much
desire, by deliberately closing their
eyes and cars to our earnest and
emphatic appeals, and in consequence
are still grinding down the already
ovcr-burdened taxpayer, citizen and
landowner, therefore be u re,
S0luc0-
l. That we, the members of the
Democratic Club of township no. a.
wishing not to discourage honorable
employment, determine, as far as
possible, from this time forth, in all
departments Of business and Labor
to extend our patronage to those who
unite with MS in tho effort to secure
a good government. in preference to
those who oppose us in such eflo 1T
2. That tho feeling which Eug-
gests tho foregoing resolution be
not construed as an instrument tc
force any ono from his honest con;
Victions, but simply as tho effort o>
this club to save tho country from
tho party Of Rule or Ruin.
8. That the foregoing preamble

lNTiMIDArIoN.-Nel Davis, q noto-
rlous Radical negro, attempted
on last Saturday a little intimi1 ation
on San Davis q colored Democrat
from White Oak. He said, while in
close proximity to Sam, that he had
no use tor ''niggor Dimocrats," md
that he WAS keeping some huck-shot
f)r them. Sam demonstrated with
h''n for using such language, charg-
ing him with having uttered the
words given above At this iuncturo
our special reporter walked I'D to
t""'e " hond, if necessary, and Ned
admitted in his presence saying sub
stantially what was attributed to him.
Ii this is not o clear case of attemDt-
eel intimidation we do not comnrc-
hend the meaning of the word. This
same Ned Davis has given uttcrance
to violent language on other occa-
slons, and certainly requires watch
ing. We advise our citizens to keen
a sharp lockout for him, for he is
calculated to stir up grcat deal of
bad blood.
