What We Have Gained.

= Tho Democratic victory in this
State is ono of the most brilliant evor
achieved by any people. With a
large colored majority against US, who
bad been alionated, and taught by
Inscriptions dcmngoguOs, to hate and
mistrust the whites, and with the
State and Federal Administration to
back them up with beyonets, enforcc~
inert acts and every other contrivance
that evil brains could think of, we
have gained the grandest victory ever
recorded in the political history of
any State. For the first time since
tho war, tho real voice Of South Car>
Oliana will be heard IN tho halls of the
Congress- Of the United States. In
Coils. Aiken and Evins wo have two
representatives whom the State may
we'll be proud of. Besides gaining
two Of the five congressman, VIC have
gained five of the eight Solicitors, the
Governor, Liout. Governor, Attorney
General and Comptroller General.
In tho Senate we have gained seven
members, and now have fifteen in that
body, and the Republicans eighteen.
Only half the Senator were elected this
time, which enabled the Republicans to
maintain a majority in that branch Of
tho General Assembly. In the lower
House, which is composed of 124 mem.
bcrs, the Democrats have Ga, and the
Republicans 60, which gives q ma
jority Of four. On joint ballot we
will have one majority, which secu1 on
n United States Senator, in place Of
T. j. Robinson, whose term expires
the 4th Ofrext March.

Reform.

A very important step towards re-
form can be effected in reduction of
salaries in tho Offices Of County Treas.
urer and County Auditor. In small
countics like this, tho two Offices
should be blended, and the salary
should not exceed ono thousand dol
lars. In tho past the asscssmcnt and
collection Of the taxes in this County
has cost not less than 5000 or $500
dollars. This should not cost more
than one thousand dollars, and We
know plenty OF competent and res
sponsiblc mon who will do it for thai
amount. When we say this VIC do
not mean any reflection on the pres
ent Treasurer and Auditor, for they
have discharged their duties very eff
ticiently; but we do say it is crying
outrage on tho tax payers, to be cons
| PEELED to pay officers treble the
| amount that the same work can b
done for, by just as competent men,
1t is an evil that will bo speedily cor
'ectcd by the noxt Legislature, pro-
vided the Radical major;ty in tho Sen
are will consent to it, and wo do not
hardly believe they will now objec,
ns the offices will be filled by
Democrats. The saving Of two thou>
sand or twenty-five hundred dollars
in this County, in these two offices
alone, will be - long stride towards
real reform.

The Banner Precinct.

Before the election we stated that
if any precinct in the County should
give n solid Democratic vote, we
should move that such precinct be
given medal by the other precincts
in the County. 1t seems that Dacus>
vile is tho winner and is Justly en-
titled to the medal, though Herds and
Hinkle's came very close dividing the
honors with Dacusville. At Herds
thcre were throo votes cast for Mr..
Blythe tor Solicitor and one tor the
Hayes electors, but solid Democrats
lc voto was given for the state and
County officers. At Hnkie's Mr..
Blythe received two votes, but the
Presidential, State and County ticket
was voted for solidly. At Dacusville
there was not vote pollcd for any
Republican candidate, and consequent
~ tho modal justly belongs TO that
Precinct. We now move that a col>
lection be taken up, and q splendid
Democratic Banner be purchased and
presented to tho Democratic Club at
DAcusvillc. IL our motion seconded?

The Presidential Contest.

Dir. Tilden receives over q ouatcr mil
lion majority on tho popular vote and
fair majority Of tho electoral votes,
IT there is fair count in Louisiana
and Florida. Tho Radicals admit
that T'lIen's majority in Louisiana is
over 5000 and in Florida from 500 to
IOO; but somo Of them boldly asscr,
that their returning boards in these
0tates will throw out enough of tho
democratic Counties TO count in
Hayes. This is evidently their pro.
grAmme, and Grant has massed troors
in both Statcs with tho evident inten-
tlon OF s0pporting, by force, tho frauds
OF these corrupt returning boards. liz
Louisiana we believe their programme
will DO carried out, but iE Florida one
of tho returning board, ATTORNEY
Generrl Cooke, ls q true and noble
Democrat, and says he intends TO see
that justice is done; besides thelo are
several able and prominent gentlemen
from other States present to watch the
counting, and we have hopes that a
fair count will bo obtained in the land
of flowers, and Tiden triumphantlv
elected.

In Maine and Oregon, the Republi
can electoral tickets each contained
the name Of post master. This
makes them Ineligible, and they can
not cast their votes for Hayes.
Two other Of tho Republican eIec-
tors hold commissions as members Of
the Centennial Board. They arc also
Ineligible. Now as Mr.. TiIdon has
1874 votes without South Carolina,
Florida and Louisiana, and conccding
those States to Hayes, Trlden will
have Il majority Of tho electoraI votes
cast, but not majority Of all the
electoral votes, which the States are
entitled to If these four Republican
electors are not allowed to cast their
votes for Hayes, will Tiden be
elected, or will tho election go to the
House. OF course wo have no doubt
OF Mr.. Tilden's election, hut suppos>
ing the case to be as above stated, we

during the canvass OF the frat half
dozen counties, the board examined
the votes by precincts
Secretary OF State Hayne objected
to this, on tho ground that it required
too much time. He thought, in order
TO facilitate business. that the county
returns only should bc canvassed as
counties and not by precincts.
The board finally concurring in tho
wish Of Hayno, General Conner filed
the following exception 20 their action:
Except to the aggregate OF the re.
suit and the announcement of them on
the ground that the canvass aud com.
