"THE South Carolina Legislature in
ointsession yesterday unanimously elect
ID Hon. Henry McIvor, of Cheraw, asso-
late justice Of The Supreme Court OF
South Carolina, in place Of J. 81. Willar |.
Elected chief justice, the republicans in
aucns having decided to support McIvor
n the event of his being nominated by
he democrats ''- 'ib
1t seems pity that Grant is pot in the
ountry to witness how utterly ground
less were his pretended fears that the
white people of South Carolina could
lot govern themselves if the army were
removed. This whole expense and dis
-egard Of the Constitution had Its origin in
desire for another civil wal, and the max
ing Of the military power superior to the
,ivil. And with this idea Generals Sher-
,uan and Sheridan are in sympathy. The
'fice Of General and Lieutenant General
annot be obliterated too soon. This
will become one of the great duties of the
Democratic majority in Congress. We
either want nor need Offices with such
immense salaries attached to them. The
'aragraph above shows very conclusively
hat Chamberlain and his gang were mere
,nischief-makers. "-'

OF the several Democratic candidates
for the succession to United States Sena-

The democrats of Southern California
contend that they ought to have the next
United States Senator from their Stale.
and they present the name of Judge H.

General James NJ. Leach, of North

OF Congress, is said to be openly con-

the only one yet heard of in the South.

A NEW IDEA IN CANAL PROPULSION
The New York Legislature has passed
billmaking an appropriation of $1,000
enable Mr.. IL. II. Baker to lay an ex :
isrimental portion of his single rail pro-
elling track along the BERN bank of the
lrie canal. The rail, which is to be ele-
ated, is intended to act in connection
With cog-wheels and an inexpensive en-
inc placed on each canal boat as a sub
jitute for horses, The machinery is

xpensive and the facility of construction

SOUTHERN REPUBLICAN NSUL
'FEn .-

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-The Southern
Republican Association here has repudi-
a'ed the organ of the Administration be-
cause it has called them-in pursuance Of
the ''new policy" doubtless-"carpet-
baggers and scalawags." AT a meeting
just held here it retaliates in preamble
declaring the insult to be "unmeri:ed, -
the sheet that made it "scurvy," and un-
worthy of the support OF Southern Re-
publicans, and the assault "indecorous -
Some pretty severe reflections are then
made on the character Of the editor in
she concluding resolutions, but all show
ing bitter hostility to the organ Of Mr..
Hayes for applying these epithets to
Southern Republicans.

THERE appears TO be. but little doubt
hat John w. Hall, of Frederica, will be
he next Governor of Delaware.-Migord d
.Vetos. '''-.
Since Mr.. Hall came very near getting
he Democratic nomination in 1874, it is
!uite likely that the remark of the Ne,os
will prove true. But it is little singu-
ar that so straight-laced an advocate OF
he Republican party as that paper is
hould give utterance to the matter in SO
Jain way. This can only be account
d for in the fact that Mr.. Hall is so gen.
rally beloved ia his section of the Sta e
hat there would be no prospect of his
'eing successfully opposed by any one OF
he Ne'os' party.

THFN AND NOVA striking contrast
between the condihon Of affain In Miss
issippi under carpet-hag Fule and that
now presented hinder ssieroocratlc home
rule administration Is furnished BY Mr..
M. v. Smalley, a correspondent Of the
Few York Tribune, in letter from jack
son, Miss. Mr.. Smalley say that since
the overthrow of the carpet-bag, govern
ment in 1876 taxation has been greatly
reduced and brought within reasonable
limits. The rate of the State levy is only
five mills on the dollar; nnder the repub-
lican regime it was II mills, and the val
uations, then excessively high, have been
greatly reduced. County taxes have,
on the average, been cut down fully one
halt, and law has been psssed restrict
ing the whole amount of county and
State tax that can be levied without
special enactment to 10 mills on the dol,
lar, rate which the taxpayers, in most
Northern States would think exceedingly
low. The Legislature spends less than
half as much money as it formerly did
Last year the whole cost of running the
State government, including the expenses
of the charitable institutions, was only
$5lS, 700, and for the current year the es-
innate is s452, ,750. After paying the in-
terest on the State debt and retiring cor
tiHcates of indebtedness to the amount
of S122, ,504, the treasury had a surplus at
the beginning of the present year of $780,
944, and had about $500, 900 of back taxes
yet to come in. Retrenchmentin in county
expenses has fully kept pace with that in
State outlays, and it is within bounds to
say that the people have been relieved
Of more than one-balf of the burden of
taxation.
