Fairfield Redeemed.

EdlIlelu hcueClNCu.
On Monday, for the first time
since the hidcous mockcry Of re-
construction was foistcd upon the
State, the property and intelligence
Of Fairfield county was successful
at the ballot box. And now FOR the
first time the people will have rop-
rcscntativcs in the Legislature, Of
whom they arc not ashamed. DUR
ing ton long years the property
holder and tho white man Of South
Carolina had no rights that tho Res
publican party was bound to re e.
spcct. Unscrupulous dcmagogucs
and plundcrors working upon the
fears, the superstition, the igno-
rance and the cupidity Of tho nc.
gro, and protected by military
dcspotism ground the people of the
State into the very dust, But their
day is past. Dcccncy once more
rules, and the different elements Of
society will now sink or rise each to
it's proper level.
The election on Monday was
peculiarly gratifying in the manner
in WHICH it passed of, and i'll its
results The labors Of last Novcm-
Der receive their reward now. The
back of Radicalism was broken
then, although they gained a
Pyrrhc victory. The Democrats
are united Their opponents arc
scattered. The polling of IL Demo ,
cratic vote Of eighteen hundred
speaks we'll for the discipline of the
party, and shows what can lie done
in the face Of opposition. With
proper work, Fairfield will hcnce~
forth take its place among the
Democratic counties.
We congratulate the people also
upon the character of the Repre-
scntatives they have chosen
NIcssrs. Gaillard and Bricc repre-
sent our best interests. They were
gallant Confederate soldiers, they
arc both in the prime OF life, and
both possess in high degree the
clements which should enter INTO
the law maker of iho period Ihcy
arc staunch mon, but arc not OK
trcmists, and i'll lcylslatlng they will
consult the general welfare.
These gentlemen were nominated
Representatives from every Club in
the county. They were tho choice
OF the Convention lasj fall. And
thoy have been elected by u highly
complimentary vote from both
white and colorcd. And, going
now to Columbia under auspices
the most favorable, we prcdcg chat
two years hence they viii receive
the hearty plaudits of the people for
the manner in which they Shall have
fulfilled their trust.
Fairfield will now move onward.

Chamberlain, who protested all
along that he was urging his claim
to the govcrnorship only to defend
tho rights Of the down~trodden
African, has picked himself up and
returned to Massachusetts as soon
as he is deprived Of the loavcs and
fishes. Had his philanthropy been
sincere, he would, in defeat, have
remained in the State to rally the
party for the future. But he can
squeeze no money from the colorcd
man now, and he leaves him to his
fate.

When Chamberlain came to South
Carolina he brought his worldly
goods in a carpct-bag. When he
left South Carolina, six street cars
were required to transport his bag
gage through Charleston. This tells
tho tale of his career.

Tho Union- Herald charges that u
ring is alternately bulling and bear
ing the State bonds by tinkoring
with legislation concerning payment
of interest on the public debt. Now
tho Uniom- Xcral0 is very poor aus
thority, but the fact exists that
there have been rings in former
times, and it would not be amiss for
tho pooplo to look into the matter
now. We see nothing wrong on tho
surface in tho course pursued by the
Legislature in regard to the debt !;
but it must be remembered that
'ovcraincs the days of the hcathcn
Chinco, tho smile that is childliko
and bland is sometimes used, to
conceal the ways that are dark.
