and were suppressed by your orders, and
that if the support of Inc United States
troops be withdrawn the Government of
which I ann the head would disintegratc,

Shutting Danger on the Tainted
KrpGZn

The usurping carpct-bagger, Pack
ard, of Louisiana, is becoming justly
alarmed as to his W safety and has
addressed to the President of the Uni
ted Ssates q Geographic dispatch stat
ing lis fears, u copy of which we give
els There. He seems to have found
out that his government will be de-
molishcd the moment the United
States troops are removed, and that
the people Of Louisiana are fully de-
termined not to have him rule over
them any longer. They will, like the
South Carolinians, have their own rul-
ers, or they will have revolution. The
people of these two States arc cXaspcr-
ated and forb earance has ceased to he
4 Virtue. Wade Hampton has been
pre-eminently a peace man, and has
relied upon the Courts for justice,
but if he and the people Of South Car
DINA are to be denied his and their
rights by the b%ulldozing Of the Courts
by dirty Radical white men and
thieving negroes, he is the man who
will fight for his country, and he can
command all the forces he wants. 1t
is only at his earnest interposition
that the Massachusetts Radical was
not long ago annihilated by al out
ragged populace. This usurpation Of
our offices by Chamberlain, who now
threatens to collect his enormous tax
or through his emissaries, to sell every
foot of land in South Carolina, must
he met by force. We know Hampton
too well to believe that he would hest
tate lead a legion of old Confedcrates,
to put to death, if necessary, the aliens
who now hold the capitol.
The Charleston Meas and Courier
strikes the keynote to the public sen-
timent of this people when that paper
says:
"What shall the people of South Caro-
lima do, the people who elected Wade
Hampton and made him Governor?
There is only one answer Wade Hump
tou, or Reroiution! There need be no Sc
riors disturbance. If there is, it can't be
helped. Governor Hampton is command
er-in-chief. Hc can call out the militia.
He can suspend the writ of habcds corpus.
Ho can place the State, or any part OF it.,
under martial law. This is power
ono,,rb . ond tho time has come when it
must be exercised. In his w way, DIT
at once, should Governor Hampton as
sert his authority; and any officer hold
ing a commission from him, who is not
ready to vindicate the trust reposed in
him by Governor Hampton, owes it to
the public to make for somebody
who will! We have done with courts,
except tho High Court Of the People!
The demand of the people is: No de-,
lay! No more %palavcrs! Boldness and
Action!

The Presidents Address.

The Presidents Inaugural Address
may lie found in this paper. 1t is
rather a negative document-not posi-
lively ccmmital, but a little Of all
things to all men. The Southern
States have been so accustomed to feel
the oppressive heel Of the Executive
at Washington that we are Il little
doubtful of what he says about the
South. The Federal Government, for
several years, has meddled itself so
much with u affairs that, we must
confess, we have some fears Of the new
administration, though it is quite pos
sible that the public sentiment at the
North is so strong against any further
oppression Of the white S%outherner
that the President may be induced to
hold up on the white people alittlc.
Have We not already passed uuder the
rod?

County Auditor.

"Governor Hampton will abolish
the office of Auditor" We see this
going the rounds. Governor Hamp-
ton can't do it, if he wished. That
matter belongs to the General Assem-
bly,-NeDJerry Herald. The Leg
islature will, no doubt abolish the
office, and impose the duties of Audi
tor on the Treasurer. If such q
change was made it would he for the
public good, but we trust that the
system will not be changed. The sys-
tenn, we believe, to be the very best
that we can get and now after SPEND
ing six or eight years getting into the
way of it, we like the plan. 1t GER
tainly is the most perfect of any sys-
tenn eyer practiced in South CARROLL
ia.

The Effect Wrights Attempted Re-
traction,

The Effect Nrights Attempted Re-
traction,
Judge Mackey, in recent CONVEX
sation with a reporter of the Charles
ton Ncws and Courier, says:
The se-callcd cancellation of Judge
Wright of his signature to thcordcrw which
discharged Tilda Norris, and thereby de-
cihcd that Hampton is the legal Governor
of the State, can have no effect to- invali-
date the decision Of the Court. Tho judy
mcnt OF a court of last resort can only be
reviewed by the court itself. The two
justices who rendered the Judgment in
this case constitute the judicial unit term
ed the Court. Neither, separately, can
constitute himself a Court of review rs to
q cause determined by tho Court IN bunc.
The Judgment is the expression of their
concurrent conclusion. The order is Il
statement of the conclusion, not of one
justice, or of the two justices, but of the
legal entity termed the Court. The filing
of the order is simply the publication of
the judgment. To hold that, after the or
der is signed by the Court, one justice
can set it aside, as is intended by tllis al
legged cancellation, is to constitute one Of
the justices a court of review over the
the Supreme Court itself.

QUESTIONS TO BE CONSIDERED.

The question we have to consider ior
the Immediate welfare of the States ofthe
Union is the question of Government or
no Government, of social order and all
the peaceful Industries, and the happiness
that belong to it, or q return to barbar-
ism. 1t is a question in which every cit
lien of the nation is deeply interested,
and with respect to which VIC ought not
to be, in a partisan SENSE, either Republic
cans or Democrats, but fellow citizens and
fellow men, to whom the interests of a
common country and a common humane
" are dear.

to the Government and Ia the people.
They meant that the officer should be Sc

They held that appointments to office
