LITTLE TOO THE.

The Charleston News and Courier attempts
to pettiiog the case of the outrage upon Mr..
SwAILs in which his meeting at Oak
Church was bull-dozed and he was subse-
qucntly notified to leave his home in ten
days on the penalty of death, in the follow
ing sickly paragraph:
The action taken has no political Significance.
SwAILs is not u candidate for the office of
elector of President or Nice'President, or for
member of Congress. Section $50, however
elastic, does not cover him. There Is no denial
to him, or to anybody else, of the right of free
speech. The Radicals are invited to speak at
the Democratic meetings, and the Democrats
invite themselves to speak at the Radical
meetings. They give and get II fair hearing.
SwAILs, however. wants TO be o martyr, while
his continued existence is proof enough OF the
desire of the people of Williamsburg to avoid
extreme measures.

THE MAJEsTY OF THE LAW.

The question that now rests upon the
mind of the true citizen Of the United States
with peculiar emphasis is-have we Con-
stitution, laws, and u Government that can
protect him in all his rights? In view OF
history that is made in the United States
daily, at this peculiar era, this becomes
very serious problem, and one that no ono
except the Chief Magistrate of the nation
can solve. There are no less thu three
States in the Union that at the present
time are acting in open violation of the Con-
stitution and the laws of the United States
relating to the rights Of citizenship, under
the auspices of the several State Executives,
i. e., with their approval, consent, and en-
enlargement. These State governments are
Democratic. They act under the instga-
tion of the Democratic party and perform
its behcsts in what they do. They defy the
laws, contcmn the Government of the
United States, and set its authority at def
anCe,
In view of this clearly established fact
there is much to alarm the true patriot and
awaken hirl to q sense of impending dan
ger, for there is great danger to the national
welfare when more or less States assume an
attitude of defiance to the laws and author
ity of the United States Government. There
is but ono short step between such posi-
ton and open and armed rebellion. 1t Is
but the part of duty, therefore, that the
field should be surveyed calmly and care
fully to see what power the Government ha!
to vindicate its own authority. The Demo
cratic party seems to fancy that II disarmec
the Executive and left the laws without th'
power of enforcement when 1t passed wha
is known as the posse c0mitdfuS bill
for several States of the South openly dis.
regard the requirements of the Constitution
and Statutes of the United States, and a

done under the instigation of the Demo
cratic leaders North and South, as we hnv
reason to believe, from the fact that 1t !
not rebuked either by the Democratic pres
or the orators who represent that party Il
the hustings.

WORDS OF A VETERAN LEADER.

The Albany EccniHg Journal publishes q
very interesting letter from the pen of the
venerable THURLow WEED, from which we
extract the following:
The New York Tribme's full and crushing
exposure of the conspiraccs and frauds by
means of which Mr.. TILDEN attempted and
expected to purchase the electoral vote Of
Florida or South Carolina cannot fail to as
tOund all who care to preserve the purity OF
elections. Following the no longer denied at
tempt to purchase the vote Of an elector in
Oregon these revelations stamp Mr.. TILDES's
attempted Presidential coup d etdt as the most
stupeudOus fraud on record. The dcciphering
of barrel of kilograms supposed to be un-
ineligible to all but those who sent and re-
ceiyed them was not onlya Herculean task but
impused immense labor upon highly-gtfted
experts. That the cipher dispatches are gen.
uine and that they have been accurately
translated Is evidenced by the fact that the
conspirators stand mute! And now to COM
plcte Mr.. TILDES's misfortunes an exposure in
court shows that the Florida cipher is in use to
helm that gentleman in his fraudulent attempt
to avoid the payment of his income tax.
Surely tho GramcTcy Park RefOrmer will be
heard exclaiming, Bring me no more 1cIpher)

no one will wonder that the Democratic House

DID South Carolina lose anything of Con-

Confederacy? The reconstruction acts, the
civil rights bill, the Constitutional amend
ments, and in short, all the so-called Fed
eral power against which she wagcd war
during the late rebellion are set Mt naught
within her territory to-day. Practically,
with HAMPTON and the Confederate De-
mocracy in control of her affairs and carry
ing out Confederate ideas in their admins
istration, she has gained within the Union
what she failed to gain outside of it. Aud
this is Southern Home Rule, which the
Democrats would if they could inaugurate
throughout the length and breadth Of the
land. For this our brave soldiers offered
their lives upon the battlc-Gelds Of the Soutl
