decision in the South Carolina case
was reached by the cabinet to-day,
and was in accordance with the pre-
dictions made in these dispatches for
a number of days past. Secretary
McCrary was directed to prepare the
necessary order 10 Gen. Ruger to
withdraw the troops from the State
House at Columbia, and to send them
into camp. With the issuance of this
order ends the reign of the carpet
baggers in South Carolina, and the be-
ginning of a new era for the citizens
and taxpayers of that State.
This result would not have been
achieved had Governor Hampton shown
the slightest disposition to entertain
the proposition for compromise; but
the firm and unyielding spirit was too
much for the diplomacy of the Cham
berlain-Patterson clique, aided and
abetted by two or three members of
the cabinet, and the administration
was forced to accept as conclusive the
voluntary assurance of Gov. Hampton
that he would administer the duties of
his office with impartially, and extend
protection to all the citizens of the
State, white and black alike. TNow
suppose the Governor of Massach husctts
or of New Hampshire, more properly
be called to Washington for the like
purpose
The Chamberlain crowd were very
enthusiastic last night and early this
morning, and were consoling them
selves with the belief that they had
succeeded in "bulldozing" the Presi-
dent by shaking the bloody shirt furi-
ously before his eyes, and that the Or
der to withdraw the troops would not
be issued unless Hampton gave very
positive written guarantees, such as
would meet the approval of these car>
pet-baggers. They were overwhelmed
with dismay when the result Of the
cabinet meeting was promulgated, and
went about venting their wrath upon
the head of the President, and assert
ing that the troops would be put back
into the State House within ten days
by reason of acts of violence in Colum-
bla. There was much rejoicing
among the conservative element that
the President had, after nearly four
weeks of hesitation, taken a stand in
accordance with the constitution and
the laws, and obtained a clear victory
over the worst elements of the repub-
lican party. The democrats of course
are in exceedingly jubilant spirits to-
night, and now turn their eyes toward
Louisiana to see whether home rule
and government are to be YOU.

J Wade Hampton intends to leave fol
Columbia at half past one o'clock to-
night, and will stop at Charlotte, N

at school. He will not reach Colum-
bia before Thursday, and does not be-

Ruger will be sent by mail and no
by telegraph.
