THE ANSWER OF THE PEOPLE.
Early in January, Chamberlain's organ
commented upon Governor Hampton's
address IN The neonle as fn|iors.

Early in January, Chamberlain's organ
commented upon Governor Hampton's
address to the people as follows:
From the Columbia Union Herald.T
Gen. Hampton strongly intimates in
his New Years address thathe willmeas-
ure the confidence of Democrats in the
legality of his movement by the readi-
ness with which they respond to bis tax
lcyy.-,.This ia. wise. Taxes are a-tessrdf
sovereignty, and their payment indicates
loyalty. Gen. Hampton has called for
an installment of 4-10 mills upon the
taxable property of the State. This
should produce $175, 900, on the basis Of
the receipts of last year. It really is not
large sum for an enthusiastic people to
pay. Throw off s25 900 for the Repub.
licans and it is just about two dollars per
head for the legal Democratic voters of
the State. Small as it is, however, we
should consider it remarkable exhibi-
tion of confidence, and If Gen. Hampton
Is able to announce a0ithin thirty days the
reception Of that amount from the taz.pay-
ers throughout the State, are should Be
ready to acknowledge that the "starve 'en
OUT policy might possibly succeed.
The answer made by the people de-
mands an acknowledgement from Cham.
berlain and his organ that the "starve
'em ont" policy has succeeded. We do
not expect to find either the Ueion-
Herald or Mr.. Chamberlain admitting
the fact that Hampton's government is
the legal authority in this State, until the
bayonet prop has been removed from
under Mr.. Chamberlain's farcical risurpa-
ton. It is not in their nature to release
their grasp upon power and authority,
even when these exist only in name.
But the people are determined to con-
vince them, if it requires two years to do
it, that taxes will not be paid to the cur.
pet-bag element any longer, and that
they are ready with their means to sus-
tain the lawfully chosen Governor Of
South Carolina.
The annexed list of contributions from
the various counties for the support of
the Hampton government is made: up to
Saturday, 18th of February, which is an
average of thirty days after the books
were opened-some of the counties not
opening until few weeks ago. The re-
sponse of the people demonstrates their
earnestness, and it is common express
ion among the taxpayers, when they are
making the ten per cent. contribution,
that they would cheerfully and gladly
pay the twenty-five per cent authorized
by the House of Representatives, if Gov.
Hampton had made the call for that
amount. The answer made by the tax
PAYERS is a complete vindication of their
faith in the validity of Hampton's cleo
tion, and at this particular time, when
nearly every one is bard pushed for
money, the voluntary contributions of so
much actual cash is truly convincing
test of their earnestness and determina-
ton to sustain their action at the ballot
box, under circumstances calculated to
discourage, and in the face of depressing
occurroncaa hayond tho State

a piece of inconsistency on the part Of the
taxpayers to abuse Chamberlain like a
pick pocket for remaining in the State,
while at the same time they refuse to
rive him enough money to get away.
The only tax vet reported as going to him
is twelve dollars from York, and as this
would land him safely just about the
upper edge of North Carolina, he wisely
prefers to remain sheltered behind the
troops in Columbia. Will some charita.

inc for the purpose would not be bad
idea. Or perhaps Judge Mackey vii!
kindly consent to write another farewell
address, to be sold by subscription. Or,
better still, Governor Hampton might
devote a portion of the contribution to
the penitentiary or unatic asylum to this
charitable use. We demand fair play
for Mr. Chamberlain. See that he has a
ticket, and then order him off. But don't
make him "count cross.ties."

ANOTHER TALK FROM GRANT.

i Mr. Gobright, the agent Of the Asso.
ciated Press, had along talk with Presi.:
dent Grant on last Sunday from the pub.
lished accounts of which ne make the
following extracts:
Mr.. Gobrighti Something has been
said about your ordering more troops to
Washington 7"
The Presidents "Such is not my pres
ent intention; but, if they were needed,
l should order them here. think, how
ever, that everything will be peaceful
as there are no indications of disturbances
in connection with the Electoral count or
the declaration tina. may be made"
Mr.. Gobright: "It has been published
that you have distinctly said you would
not formally recognize one of the two
governments in either Louisiana or South
Carolina. Is this true ?"
The President: 'It is; as think it
would be improper for me to fix South
ern policy for my successor, and thus
embarrass him. II I were to recognize
Republican Governors they would have
to be sustained by military force, and l
think the entire people are tired of the
military being employed to sustain
State government. If Republican
State government cannot sustain itself,
then it will have to give way, aud if a
remedy is required, let Congress, and not
the President, provide it."
Mr.. Gobright: "Much unfriendly COM
ment has been made on the executive
order prohibiting military demonstra.
ton in Charleston, 8. c., on Washington's
Birthday. If you have no objection, it
would be interesting to learn the reason
for the action in the premises"
The President: my proclamation
heretofore issued, commanding all illegal
or unauthorized armed associations to
disband, is still in force. The men who
were going to parade were nothing but
armed political bands. They have never
respected the proclamation, and only
seemingly disbanded. | must say that
while / believe the Democratic leaders
would have done all that was possible to
prevent an outbreak, yet, OIL an occasion
of that kind, men sometimes indulge too
much ia strong drink, and while under
its influence might so express themselves
against their political opponents as pos
sibly to provoke retaliation, and thus in
cite riot with serious, if not fatal conse-
quences, and which disturbance might
extend to other localities. Therefore,
entirely apart from the propriety of OBJ
serving the day, it was thought better
that the military demonstration should
be prevented. for the reasons stated,
rather than run the risk of riot"

HAMPTON on THE PRESIDENCY.

Governor Hampton, in an interview
with reporter of the News and Courier,
said upon the subject of defeating the in
auguration of Hayes as President by re-
sistanee to the action of the Commission
II think it not advisable to throw OBJ
stacles in the way ofthe decision of the
Commission. We submitted our case to
that tribunal, and if we have been de-
ceived or betrayed, we can better afford
to suffer defeat which brings no dishonor
to our party, than to incur the imputa.
ton of acting in bad faith. Other legiti-
mate means of redress are still open to
US without resorting to parliamentary
tactics, which may injure the peace of
the country, and would surely place US
in q false position. The interest of the
whole country demands a peaceful settle.

A COMPROMISE TALKED OF.

1t is generally. understood among.
Southern men here that, if Hayes comes
in, he .swill not attempt to bolster up
Chamberlainin South Carolina, but that
compromise will in some way be effect
eiin the: State by which Hampton will
be- Governor and a Republican Senator
will be elected. Louisiana Is in more
doubt, but there IL very general expec.
tation that Packard will not be sustained
by the use of government troops. Wash
ington Correspondent Springfield Repu6-
Gcdn.
From this it appears that the Repub-
licans intend trying to secure compro-
mise as to our State government, by
which the Democratic majority in our
Legislature is to be called upon to assist
in keeping the National Republican
party in power by electing Republican
to the United States Senate. We trust
no such dishonorable scheme will have
an abettor in Governor Hayes if he
should be our next President. Either
Hampton is the legal Governor of South
Carolina or he is not, and it is not the
subject of barter and sale. If elected, it
will be Hayes sworn duty to recognize
him as Governor, and ifhe was not elec.
ted the President should recognize the
candidate who was. There is no room
for compromise, and Governor Hamp-
ton has too high sense or honor to
think Of, or permit any such proceeding.
He is Governor Of South Carolina, and
the people who elected him intend to
sustain him, let the President who is
being counted in by fraud do 81 he will.
Ifany Republican gets seat from South
Carolina in the United States Senate,
that body will have to assume the re
spousibility, as the Democrats of South
Carolina do not intend to forfeit Il portion
Of their hard.earned victory to crafty
the tricksters of the Republican party.
Had Governor Hampton and the Dem
ocratic party desired to compromise over
the election they could have done so
long ago. There is no such desire, and
whoever expects South Carolina Dem
ocrat to vote for Republican for the
United States Senate reckons without his
hoat

The Partisan Eight of the Commission
voted to count South Carolina for Hayes
with the same defiance OF law and JUS
tice which has characterized their pro-
ceedipgs from the beginning to this last
act of this miserable electoral farce. The
only other contested point for the Com
mission is the vote Of Vermont, which
rests upon the same point as the Oregon
vote, and hence is prejudged BY the de-
cision in that case. The Commission
has done its work like true partisans, and
the country will henceforth know the
immortal eight as the men who pre-
ferred party to the laws of their country,
and to justice and right. Future gene
rations will detest their memories, and
hold them up as execrable examples of
men devoid of principle.
