Tnrpr is q wild fnIlnw dnwn OF Ell

THERE is wild fellow down at Edge
field Courthouse, S. c., of the name of
Tillman, who persists in attending Repub-
lican meetings in different parts of the
State, and openly insults Republican
speakers, telling them that they ought to
be shot. Recently he stated to some prom
inent Republicans at Blackville that if the
Edge6eld boys were only present he would
have every Radical speaker on the ground
killed. You ought to be shot, and you
know it." he added. Is it not strange that
this wild creature has not been long since
arrested for his incendiary utterances? This
man Tillman is the Democratic candidate
for Congress from the Fourth South Car
olina district.

THE laborers in New York clamor for
work that they may have bread. Tilden
has been in power in New York with his
pretended reforms during the last five
years, but what has he done forthe laborer?
Labor has all the while become more and
more depressed. His organs are charging
the depression on the Republicans. But
they are also Dragging of how much Tilden
has lowered the taxes of the rich. How
has he done this? All they will not tell
this. But we will tell the laborers all
about it. He has done it by cutting down
the appropriations for the public works
which furnished labor and bread to the
poor. He has taken the bread from their
children's mouths and put the cost of it
into the pockets of the rich taxpayers like
himself Out upon such duplicity.

TILDEN, it would seem, intends to take
as long time to prepare an answer to the
charge of perjury made against him as he
did to write letter of acceptance that
would satisfy both the hard and soft money
men in his party. 1t will require great
skill in the railroad Wrecker to make his
two oaths agree. In one he swore his in
come for 1862 TO be $1,000, and on the
other that he received $4,000 in fees that
year from one railroad. Exactly how he
will make these two statements mean the
same thing We do not know, but suspect it
will be explained by the depression in
business" or excessive governmental con-
sumption" -"

NUT FOR MIR, TILDEN.

Mr.. Tilden il his letter of acceptance
dwelt with much emphasis upon the i'm
mense increase of the expenditures of the
Government under Republican rule. We
have already demonstrated that the cost of
the administration of President Grant last
year was fifty six cents per capita of our
population less than was that of Mr.. Buch-
anan. We now present the following start
ling nut for Democratic economists of the
Tilden school to crack, which we quote
from the correspondence of the Ithaca Post,
whose intelligent Washington correspond
ent has ulearthed it from the mass of off,
cial returns which have been recently
printed:
at occurred to me that inasmuch as Mr..
Tilden had instituted a comparison with pre-
vious years, in his effort to make it appear
that the expenditures of the Government had
been grossly excessive under Republican man
agement, that an investigation of the 'Civil
and Miscellaneous Expenditures from the
foundation of the Government to the present
time would throw light upon the question
whether those expenditures have been unduly
increased within the time embraced IN his COM
parison. have therefore taken these expen-
dtures at intervals of twenty years, and here
are the figures:

THE New York World of the Goth con-
tsins an article calling the attention Of
Postmaster General Tyner to the fact that
the postmssters at Kingston and Rondout

on all cancelled letters "Vote for Hayes"
We are authorized to say that these post
masters have been directed, If such stamp
has been used, to discontinue its use, and

WE TRUST that the Secretary of War
will find some method of furnishing the
troops in the South with Calling or Bailey
batteries that discharge one hundred
cartridges per minute. A couple of these
batteries should be placed at the stand of
every Republican meeting for the proper
reception of Banditti Buffers rifle
clubs when they appear armed and unin-
yited to take charge of such meetings.

The poor pay their taxes in rent and
bread and clothing. The rich pay their
taxes on houses and lands and Jewels and
furniture and stocks and bonds and in
comes, (when they don't make false returns
and lie about their possessions, as Sam
Tilden and AnnaniAs and Sapphira did
and they raise great cry of reform, " and
get their taxes lowered sometimes. But
who ever heard of landlord reducing
poor mans rent because taxation on the
property was lowered? And who ever
heard of the price Of the poor mans tea,
coffee and bread and coarse clothes getting
any lower on account of lower duty be-
ing charged on them? No one. These
things benefit only the rich. And yet Til
den's organs are for free trade, in order that
the rich may get their luxuries cheaper,
while the poor cry for labor, that they may
give bread to their furnishing children.

No ONE is fit to serve an administration
unless he is in sympathy with it. The
general who would select soldiers from the
army of his enemy to act as outposts would
not be considered as the best of generals.
The same rule should hold good in politics.

ELSEWHERE we print frank and manly
letter from Hon. James II. PIatt late n.
C. from the Second district Of Virginia,
regarding the authorship of the Paxton"
letters, which have been printed in this
journal, and to which Mr.. Goode has taken
some exception. 1t will be seen by Mr..
Platt's letter that Mr.. William H. Coe, the
author ofthe letters, after having made every
arrangement tor belligerent acquaintance
with Mr.. Goode (if the latter desired iD
through his last epistle, most ingloriously
fed TO Norfolk, evidently for the purpose
Of selling false information to Mr. Goode.
We know not how TO fifty characterize a
man SO lost to decency as to play this double
part One thing is quite certain, this COM
munity is well rid of him if he has gone to
the Second district to serve Mr.. Goode.
Judging from what the testimony before the
Committee on Elections in the Plat -Goode
case reveals of his electioneering tactics,
Mr.. Goode will have abundant employ
meut for such person as William II. Coe.

The Appietons have recently published the
life of Tilden. After pretty thorough can
yass in Philadelphia and Baltimore the general
agent arrived in this city, and after careful
review Of the situation he has arrived at the
conclusion that the life of Tilden is stale,
fiat and improbable thing, for which there is
no demand, at least in the cities named. Bad
for the Appletons.
The WEEKLY NATIONAL REPUBLICAN for
the current week is now ready for the mails.

war in the Turkish provinces and the record

cheapest campaign paper in the country.
The rebel Democracy during the rebellion
robbed the cradle and the grave to support
their cause, and 1t is not to be wondered at
that they are doing the same to-day to support
the cause of Tilden. Else why should they
drag to the surface George B. McClellan-a
man who, while commanding an army, under
took to instruct the President of the United
States as to his duties; a man who abandoned
an army, in the presence of a powerful enemy,
to corps commanders; man who was so much
admired by the enemy that they placed his
picture on their envelopes; a man who in 1864
accepted a Presidential nomination upon the
TiIden rebel platform, declaring the war
failure.
By a coincidence State conventions were
held yesterday in the three Northern States
which the Democrats, at the beginning, hoped
to carry, viz: Connecticut, New York and New
Jersey, that in New York being Democratic,
the other two Republican. So desperate
was the strait felt to be in the former that in

The exercises began with the reading of
appropriate selections Of scripture, after
which Rev. Mr.. Johnson delivered an ex-
ceedingly appropriate funeral address. The
services were concluded with prayer in
which the bereaved ones and the several
fraternities with which the deceaeed was
connected, were tenderly and f~ervently
commended to God for consolation in the
hour of their affection.
The procession reformed and proceeded
to the railway station, where a special train
was in waiting to take the funeral coItege

of the masonic fraternity, arriving at Sa-
lem at 1880 o'clock. At this point another

ceeded to Evergreen cemetery, some two

shall, Master of Rutland lodge No. 10, OF
which the deceased was an officer, conclud-
Ing with prayer by Rev. Mr.. Thompson Of
Salem lodge, who OBLIGATED as chaplain.

ceiving vault. The funeral party returned

lem to leave the members of the masonic
fraternity, aud then came directly TO Rut.
