What we may Exreet..The Peaee
Policy In Abbeville Conaty
q Failure,

It 10 rumored that certain parties
have gone 10 the capital for the pur-
pose Of putting the respectable people
.nf this County before the usuIping
powers in Columbis In as u~nfsvorable
. light a possible, aud our dispatches
last night prove that q rumor is III cir
crla,ion In that city to the effect that
arrangements are being completed for
sending q large constabulary force to
this county. ". "
Our whole people have advocated
the ''peacs policy" since the COM
increment Of the campaign. and it
seems to us that the egroes
and their R,dical white leaders
have presumed on U forbearance
aud now propose to offer additional in
dignities. In sll caudor. would 1t not
have been better for Il peopls Ii We
hud disposed OF q few of. the scoui,-
drels who never fail to stir up strife.
1t Is q serious matter to take the Jaw

Speaker Kerr finds 1t difficult to keep
the muzzle on the rag-baby democrats
Mr.. Landers of Indiana desired to be rec
ogaized by the Speaker to introduce re
solve to repeal the resumption act. but
Mr.. Kerr would give no encouragement,
whereupon Landers took a position ip
front of the front row of desks, where the
Speaker could not fail to see him, and ev
cry time the floor was clear bawled out in
stentorian tones, "Mr. Speaker" but the
Speaker would not recognize him. Lam
ders regards the conduct of the Speaker
as an invasion Of his rights, and expresses
determination to get his resolution be-
fore the House. He says he will not be
choked of by the coterie that are trying
to run every man through their hard
money mold. Landers says majority Of
the people in Kerr's own district are op
posed to his financial theories, and thai
his resolution is SO framed that it will re
ceive the entire vote of the Indiana dele
cation.

The statement has been published il

as his reason for leaving his record as an
officer of the Union army out of the sketch
of his life which appears in the directory
of the present Congress, that it was omit
ted In order to bring the matter within the
limit allowed by the publisher. 1t is not
known whether the statement is made by
authority or not, but it is very certain
that the excuse is about the lamest that
could possibly have been offered. A ref
erence to the directory OF the Forty-Third
Congress will show that just twelve words
were required to furnish the information
that the honorable gentleman had organ

State, and out of that number, eleven &C.

The South has never abandoned the

of State Rights is settled is to fly in the
face of facts that stamp the assertion as
utterly devoid of truth. 1t is only assist

make such an assertion. The simon-pure
democracy take pride in avowing their
adhesion to the State Rights doctrine and
