There are several dead beats, who
ought to be in the penitentiary, going
around over the country claiming stray
stock. They will go to man who has
taken up an animal, posted it, kept it as
long as the law prescribes and sold 1T,
and tell him that the said animal belong
ed to them, and that if he will pay them
$50 they will not prosecute him. The
man becomes alarmed, and either pays
the cash or gives his note, and the vii

generally 60 in threes, one to claim the
animal, and the other two to swear to it.

Lexington weekly intelligencer., 1876-08-05

Gen. NJ. C. Butler, who has been
charged with being leader in the dis
turbances which resulted so fatally in
Hamburg, S. c., has published letter,
in which he accuses Gov. Chamberlain
of having grossly misrepresented the
facts regarding that event, and challen-
ges the governor to begin legal proceed
ings against him, saying g that Chamber
lain knows his residence, and knows
that the presence of United States troops
is not necessary for his arrest. He also
says that if a legal investigation is had,
and he does not show that the negroes
were the aggressors, and the riot insti-
gated by emmissaries of Chamberlain, he
will undertake to answer personally for
the death of every man, white and black,
who fell. 1t is difficult to see how Gov.
Chamberlain can avoid responding to
this challenge by prompt proceedings,
which he should have taken long ago,
instead of running to Washington for
federal troops. We have yet seen moth
ing that can be accepted as an excuse for
the barbarity of killing prisoners who
had surrendered themselves; but this is
no reason why the whole affair should
be misrepresented for political purposes.
The Hayes newspapers would have the
public believe that a aregularly organized
militia company were murderously at
tackled by democrats because they dared
to celebrate the fourth of July. The
fact is that the so-called militia company
was disorderly, armed mob, who had
seized arms belonging to the state, and
at the time of the disturbance had met
in armed resistance to minor court,
presided over by one of their own color,
and their own political faith. Further,
these outlaws have, for years, been
nuisance and terror to the community
which they infested, owing to the anar-
chy which prevails inSouth Carolina, and
the impossibilities of obtaining Justice in
the partisan courts of that state. Finally
they came in collision with white mob
which proved too strong for them, and
lynch law was administered to some of
the blacks, just as it has frequently been
administered to white offenders in
northern states with less provocation
Politics had nothing to do with the mat
ter, except that it is owing to the vii
lainous rule of carpet-baggers and igno-
rant negroes that condition of affairs
has been produced in South Carolina
which renders it impossible for white
citizen to secure legal protection from
violence and robbery. Gov. Chamber
lain had better stop writing partisan
letters and begin proper legal investi-
cation of this wretched business.
