BOLTIEG REGULAR NOMINATIONS.

Boiling pITiy nominations aher they
have been determined by regularly ap-
pointed delegates in convention is ruinOus
TO all party organizations. 1t is an inyen-
ti0n OF the enemy which should never be
allowed 10 divert true and earnest Repub-
licans from their purpose; but more e5-
Eecially so upon the eve of Presidential
election. We have now in mind two in
stances, which we Will use 10 illustrate
what we mean. Hon. Jere N. Rusk, of
Wisconsin, one Of the most earnest and in
dustrious of the Republican members ofthe
present House, the man to whom beyond all
others the soldiers and soldiers widows and
orphans are indebted for their rights under
the patent laws, has failed a nomination
for reelection because some other county
in his district felt entitled to nGm3 the
man. His friends felt outraged, because
they were satisfied that General Rusk was
the most valuable Representative they
could send here. But like good Republi-
CANS they, with the General at their head,
put forth their whole strength to elect the
nominee. In contrast with this conduct
we may instance the case of Mr.. Hoskins,
of New York, who has also had the expert
ence necessary to make him very useful to
his district A majority of the delegates
TO the nominating convention wisely, as
we think, determined to nominate him for
reelection. The Niagara county delega-
ton, finding itself in minority, withdrew
from the convention and nominated another
man. The prospect is, therefore, that a
Democrat will be elected from q staunch
Republican district. We trust that Mr..
Flagler will see the folly of becoming the
direct means Of losing to his party va!u-
able member of the House in the next
Congress. Were the positions of himself
and his adversary reversed, we should just
as firmly insist that it would be the duty
of Mr.. HOskins to take himself out of the
way. General Rusk was a good and brave
soldier. The discipline he has acquired in
the army has not been lost upon him in
political life, and his example in the pres
ent campaign is worthy of emulation.
Partisan voters should attend the prim:-
ries, and see to it that the right men are
selected Us delegates TO nominating CONVEX
tions, and then faithfully abide the action
of the convention.

Tilasp,s Last Defense Overthrow

[FTOTa the Albany b"Cn!ug JuuFn1i,l
For eight years Mr.. Tillen made no income
return at ali. IN the first gear Of the tax he
cunningly returned his income far below the
real amount, snd after having thus mlsiead
the assessors by false statement, which was
accepted as true, he made no return for the
subsequent years, but LEFT tie assessors to
assess him at their discretion with the first
false return as their only guide. It was
piece Of sharp practice, but as dishonest as it
was sharp. In the defense which he has put
forth through his law clerk, Mr.. TiIden says
on this point:
sin respect to the allegation that after two
years of the income tax. Fir. Tilden made no re-
turn but lett that portion of his tax which was
in excess of the payments for his accounts made
by the corporations, whose bonds and stocks he
held, to be assessed under the law by the esti-
mate of the public officers, the answer is simple.
The statute gave the taxpayer the option to take

THE recent murders in South Carolina
appear the mere and more horrible AM
diabolical as the full details of their perpe-
tration, without warning or preparation,
reach US by private letters. One letter re-
ceived last night gives the names and places
where murdered of Several of the victims:
Peter Williams, (colored,) killed on the
18th September; BIzel Briant, on the 18th;
John and Robert Williams, (white,) on the
10th; Warren and John Riley and Oscar
Brown, (colored,) on the 10Th; David
Malley, S. P Coker and an unknown man
were also killed on the 10Th; Ed. W. Bush
was killed while picking cotton in the field
last Friday, the Goth. The letter is from a
trial justice who is a refugee in the
swamp for his life, showing that the lives
of the very men whose duty as ministers
of the law it is to bring to trial and punish
ment the murderers are in hiding from the
banditti. The whites are riding in squads
of ten or fifteen, armed aud shooting lead
ing colored Republicans on sight The
United States troops now there are power
less to preserve the peace. Wherever they
appear and command the peace the bandits
cease their firing and leave for other game
covers, to which the soldiers cannot follow
on foot until the bandits have completed
their errands. South Carolina is now, at
this very moment unquestionably under
military rule. But it is under the rule of
the bandru, the insurgents. The serious
question for the Government to determine
is whether it shall remain under the mill
tary Iule Of the enemy or whether United
States troops shall be sent there IN sufficient
numbers to restore and maintain order and
re-establish and maintain the supremacy of
the laws. Martial law is truly terrible
measure In time Of peace. 1t should rarely,
if ever, be resortgd TO. Bat here is

DEMOCRATIC CONSISTENCY AND MEN
paCITY


At tie late meeting Of the Republic III
Congressional convention for the S.xLI
district of Virginia Rev. f. P. Phelps oue
of the candidates iOr clecI0r at large on the
Republican ticket, made speech-some
thing, by the wav, nc knows how to do
whereuPon the Lynclburg FWgjHian
waxed wroth and in lugubriols accents be-
walled the degeneracy Of the times where
in ministers would dubble in politics. More
recently, however, one Reverend Dun
gee, 2 sable OratOr-and an imported one,
too-in the employ Of the Virginia Democ-
racy, has been "norating" in the interests
of Democracy at Lynchburg. Without
acquainting the public as to how much
Dungee receives for his oratoricll efforts to
mislead those of his own color, the Vir-
Sinida goes into ecstasies over the effort,
and fails not % make the discovery that
Dungee is marvellous proper man, not
withstanding he is trailing the gospel
ermine in the mire of politics. On the
other hand, the Virginian assures us the
speech was ''clear, strong" ''forcible, -
':fuent" and right to the point, ," ''the
very thing for the OCCASION" and event
home to many sable hearers" We are
further informed that the enterprising Dun
gee formed "colored Conservative club. "
"Angels and ministers of grace defend usr'
A ''colored' Democratic club! We would
as soon expect to hear of 3 white African.
1t would be quite as much in keeping with
the eternal fitness Of things. But we are
further assured that "a number of cOlored
men came forward and deliberately
signed the pledge, determined to act in
future with their true friends and cut
d" loose from those who have imposed on
" them so long. They will be sustained.
" Now that the ice is broken we expect to
" see many more coming into the fold and
"joining in the good work They will not
" regret it. Those who have the power
"and the willingness to befriend them will
" mot forget them"
Now, all this sounds ike an iucipicnt
revolution in nature Was in progress, and
did we not know that the half dozen dead
beats who united in Dungee's club had
always DCCu III LhC pay auO lHNSlSSt VI GuO
Democracy Of Lynchburg, We should be
appalled, for the sake Of the colorei pie.
Those who have the power and the
" willingness to hefriend them will not for
4" get them" Oh, nO, Of course they won't;
have not the Democracy of the city al ways
befriended them? Have they not always
paid them libsraCy on election occasions to
do their GirCy work and Eyr their purely
imaginative Influence in DeTsuading those
of their own color 20 vote with the Democ-
rscy? Yea, verify. There wa trio of
colored men ofthis character in the employ
ofthe Democracy Of L7nchburE for ye RS.
One OF them haS ROW been made secretary
of Dungee's club, and has his headquarters
in the VirgiRiaR building. The other two
were sent to the penitentiary last year be-
cause of ignorance Of the difference be-
tween naeum and teum Were these two

reioiced to learn that Mr. J. G. Thompson,
late editor CT the Union, Herald at Colum-

General of that State. Most Republicans
