The Chief Justiccslip.

The death Of Chief Justice Moses
creates a vacancy in the highest
Judicial Office in the State. A mum,
Der Of gentlemen have been suggest
ed as we'll fitted for the position.
Associate Justice Willard has been
prominently mentioned. and the
Chief Justiceship would be on ap-
propriate recognition of his conduct
in the gubernatorial case. Should it
however be the determination of the
Democracy to retain Judge Willard in
his present position and elect a
chief justice from among the mons
bers of tho bar, large field would
be spened to choose from. In ad
dition to the nominations alrady
made, we would suggest the name OF
Col James II. Rion, of Winnsboro,
whose elevation to the Supreme
Court we would be pleased to see,
not because he is citizen of Fairfield,
but because we deem him the lead
ing lawyer of the up-country. and
the peer of any member OF
the bar in this State. We
do not know whether Colonel
Rion would consent to abandon the
active pursuit of his profession, but
feel assured that he would adorn the
bench. We submit his nomination
to the public.

COM aIUNICATED.
The Southern Policy"

"But the Southern policy of the
new administration does not seem
to differ from the old. Yet none
will moro gladly accept it, if it can
be made to work, than those who
supported the former one. If,
however, the withdrawal of Federal
interference in Southern affairs
means q resort to the shot gun
policy in future clcctions--if the
freedmen are to have no rights
which whito men orc bound to re-
spect, as the Returning Boards
which made Mr.. Hayes President
alleged was the case in important
parts Of tho SOUTHEAST fall, ,,then the
local self-governmcnt policy will
not lie found acceptable to the
nation. a reaction will come which
will demand and secure something
like justice for these poor men who
have been made citizens in name if
not in fact"
The above extract is from the
New York Mercantile Journal, a
business paper which claims to bo
conservative. Such opinions 'igno-
rantly entertained of the whites at
the South by the masses at the North
have caused the untold calamities
which we have endured. None are
SO blind as those who are willfully
blind. The punishment which I
would infict upon such people is the
compelling them to live for eight
years under The rule of negroes and
their carpet~bag leaders, among
whom to talk of honesty, truth and
justice is as vain as to discourse of
chastity in brothel. x. w.

Tho South in the Cabinet.

The Washington dispatches pub
lishod in IHe Ncws a7ed Courier
contained the announcement that
ex-senator David NJ. Key, Tennes
sec, had had an interview with
President Hayes, and accepted a
Cabinet portfolio.
Mr.. Key was born in Greene
county, Tennessee, is Sd years old,
and ranks among the ablcst lawyers
in his State. At the the time of his
appointment to the Senate, to fill
the vacancy caused by the death of
Andrew Johnson, he was Chancellor
of the Chattanooga Circuit. At the
recent election for Senator he re-
ceived forty-tive Of the whole nun
be$ of one hundred votes, his sup
porters being twenty.four Hemc .
Gratis and twenty-one Republicans,
including every member from Ten,
nessec. During the war ho COM
manded Confederate regimen, +,
and made splendid soldier. He is
not n politician in q partisan sense,
but a broad and liberal statesman.
In speech in the Senate on the
Oregon question, last December, he
said:
"It is time that We become infus-
ed with more of tkat charity which
thinketh no evil and is kind. 1t is
time we should have that confidence
which would allow us to repose
trust in each other. 1t is time for
us to make our government one of
law instead of force It is time that
offenders be tried and punished, and
not those who are innocent. They
should be condemned, and not COM
munities or States because wicked
men are in them"
Why was he selected to represent
the South in the Cabinet ? His
loyalty to the South cannot be i'm
peached, but he is a National man,
Il Conservative Democrat, whose
liberality of sentiment commends
him to the Republicans. This, we
presume, is why he is taken and
others are left. The information We
have concerning him, at this mo-
ment, comes mainly from Rcpubli
can sources, and it will no doubt be
thought by many that if he We're not
half a Republican already, he would
not be so highly spoken of. This is
not q ust view to take
OF the appointment. An ultra
Democrat could not have been
chosen and it is moderate Demo-
Gratis like Senator Key who, by
sticking to bad bargain, enabled
the Electoral votes to be counted
before the 4th of March. News aud

Panic in a Church.

The New York Herald contains
long account of g panic in q Roman
Catholic church on last Thursday
uight, which shows how easily a
large crowd may become alarmed
beyond self-control, and likewise
the terrible effects of such alarm.
There wero twenty-five hundred
women in attendance upon one of a
series oflectures intended specially
Tor their Box. During tho exercises,
the1ntense heat and ovororowded
state Of the building caused a
woman to faint, moaning aloud as
she fell to the toor of the gallery,
The news and herald. (Winnsboro, S.C.) 1877-1900, 1877-03-13

ana then some Cne raised the cry Of
"lirc." Immediately tho entire as
selnblage made rush for the doors,
and perfect crush followed.
Though the means Of egress were
abundant and well-arranged, yet
such was the pressure in the vests
bule that the crowd could not get
out. cat first the panic was almost
wholly confined to the galleries, but
the shrieks of the struggling crowd
soon filled with terror the crowd
which filled the aisles, and the moves
ment to escape became general.
Out from the body of the church
began to pour the immense congre-
CATION, which, meeting in the vesti-
bule the fleeing occupants of the
gallery, made a new obstruction and
effectively blocked all egress. Then
ensued terrible struggle to escape
from an imaginary danger" After
n time, the fire alarm having been
sounded, a company with an engine
arrived, and the tiremen, pushing
aside the crowd that were pressing
from the streets, made their way
into the mass within, and opened q
passage. Through this the crowd
emerged-folu thousand in all, and
all alive save seven. The killed
were Six females from sixteen to fifty
years of age, and one boy of seven.
1t is only marvellous that so few
we're injured. This occurrence
teaches tho Importance of self>pos-
session in time of danger, and the
necessity for providing more means
of exit from very large buildings.
In this case the doors opened OUT
ward, and the crush was the result
of the pressure from NIL sides upon
the vestibulc.

The Senate has confirmed all the

tho President and for the policy
embodied in his first appointments.
Politicians like Blaine must now
take back seat, and surrender the

men.
