Picnic IN TOWNSHIP No. IA COR
respondent has kindly sent us the
following account of a picnic recent,
ly given i'll township no. l. -
"The Democratic Club, of town
ship no. l gave a picnic az New
Hope Church on the 2Sth ult. for
the purpose of extending the cause
of Democracy both in interest and
members. It was largely attended
by the citizens of this and several
adjoining townships, and there was
much interest manifested by the
members Of the Club, in the increase
Of it's numbers and in pcrfccting the
organization. The Club numbers one
hundred enrolled members. Mr..
L. S: Brice, the president, intro
duced Col +. Cameron, the orator
of'the day, in a handsome and com
plimentary manner, also stating the
object of the meeting, and in very
concise language set forth the politi-
cal prospects Of our country. We
congratulate this club in their choice
of snch a noble and worthy presi7
dent. Col. Cameron stepped for
ward, and held his audience spell
bound for several hours, while he
faithfully ,dclineated the past, the
present and the future of our now
down-trodden country. He earn
estly pleaded for immediate action
and union among tho voters of the
South during the present campaign.
He said that the politics of the
country were SO demoralized, that
we're it possible for Washington to
be resurrected from his grave and
be candidate for the gubernatorial
chair, he would be disgracefully de-
feuted-so averse was tho party in
power to honesty and integrity
He also touched upon our finances,
remarked that we were all going, as
fast as time would permit, to the
poor mans grave, the negro in the
van. But such was the negro's s
credulity and ignorance that he
could never be convinced, until
Radical money was not SO freely dis
pensed. After paying n handsome
tribute to woman, he closed his ad-
dress amid the acclamations of the
crowd. The Blnckstock band dis
coursed the music on the occasion,
and added greatly to the enjoyment
of all. 1t was indeed gala-day to
old New Hope, which, though Slow
in action, is steadfast and unwaver-
ing We hope that this social and
polite al gathering may have it's
telling effects in the future"

REPUBLICAN RATIFICATION MEETING
The meeting Of Republicans to
ratlfy the nomination of Hayes and
Wheeler came off on Wednesday
last. BY eight or nine o'clock there
was an immense crowd of negroes
i'll town-almost all of whom had
come to hear the speeches. About
eleven o'clock, procession led by
George Barber, as chief marshal,
and numbering about two hundred,
started for the ground where the
speaking was appointed to take
place. The speakers arrived on the
northern bound freight train, and
were driven in carriages to the
place of speaking. Mr.. A. NJ.
Iackey presided over the meeting,
and. after stating ite purpose, intro
duccd Governor Chamberlain. We
have not space for n full account of
any of the speeches. The governor
spoke in general terms of the prin-.
ciples and policy of the Republican
as opposed to the Democratic party,
urged the necessity of reform and
land good government in South
Carolina, and closed by impressing
upon his hearers the great duty of
sending to the Legislature and plc-
ing in the county officers none but
aon est and competent men. =: His
remarks were very moderate in tone,
and there was nothing in them cal.
culated to excite any i'll foeling.
While not subscribing in any degree
to the views he expressed as to the
need of keeping tho Republican
party in power, wo must concede
that the speech was in good taste
nd calculated to offend. no one.
Governor Chamberlain was followed
by Congressman A. S. Wallace, who
spoke but short time. In his re-
marks there was, of course, an ur-
gent appeal to the blacks to stick to
their party, and the nonsensical
|ststement'tt@t the low price of cot
ton is r.. due to. the action of the
Democratic majority in the nationa
House of Representatives, but there
was a very noticeable, absence OF
the iheendiary language and appeal
to passion that have been the chief
burden of Wallace's political har-
angues since Reconstruction. We
are glad to believe that he is at last
coming to see the folly and the dan
ger of any further continuance OF
such speeches. The next speake,

went over to the Democracy for the reasons nave
already given Won, but the loss of their principal
leader might have had some effect upon them"
asked Mr.. Hogan if at any time during the cam
paign there had been reign of terror among the
coored people-if there had been seasons when they
were afraid to sleep at home or to go out at night
He replied that there had not been, except In one
instance The houses of several white men IN one
neigh borhOod were fired into and one man was shot
at in the daytime while sitting on his porch These
people, who were all Democrats, believed that the
shooting was done by negroes and they sent thelr
families to Monroe and determined to arrest ana
punish their would-be assassns. The negroes were
in great terror for short time, and no doubt ma
themselves No one was ever caught.
The colored Democrats from Ouachita are unani-
nous in their testimony that the election In that
parish was as quiet as church." Mr.. Hogan told me
that it was true that coored constable. Ben James,
while taking balIot-bOx from Monroe TO Logtown
on the night before election was shot and wounded,
and the result was that no polls opened at Log
town. James wss taken into Monroe on election
day. BY the laws of this State electors have the
right to vote at any poll in the parish which they
reside. The colored Republicans undertook to go to
Monroe for this purpose the day before election.
but on the arrival of several hundred of them there
the Mayor issued proclamation ordering them 10
go home and at his request the commandment OF the
United States troops stationed at Monroe disarmed
and dispersed the negroes. Mr.. Hogan has no per-
sonal knowledge that Monroe was surrounded by
line of picket guards to prevent negroes from going
in to vote, but he heard that such was the case.
The readers of THE TRIBUNE may draw their own
conclusions from these facts. For myself, believe
that state of affairs similar to this which Mr. Ho-
gan admitted to exist would be sufficient explana-
