into every Republican household In the
State. Is that republican form of gov
ernment, such rs the Constitution contem-
plates? Is that such protection to the
people rs the genius of our free institutions
demands? Can these things be tolerated
with safet.j within this Union of States !?
We present these questions for the serious
consideration of the President Of the United
States,with the gentle, reminder that the men
who defy the Constitution and the laws and
trample the flag of the nation under foot
in South Carolina, are of those who cry
fraud when they point TO the Chief Magis-
trate of the nation, and are only waiting
the sounding of the trump of revolution to
hurl the President from his seat and usurp
the powers of the Federal Government rs
they have those of South Carolina We ask
as q humble citizen that the President
ponder these things well now and take
early counsel with duty. This is no time
to tamper with fire or tcmporize with the
spirit of outlawry, for the very air is rife
with the spirit of revolution and danger TO
the public peace and welfare, and especially
to the President as tho constitutional head

IT has been reported down In Virginia
that Generals SHERMAN and SCnoFEELD
have expressed qualification at the prospect
Of the election of cX-rcbCl General JoG
JOHNSTON 10 Congress in the Richmond dis
trict, because they believe he will he made
chairman Of the Committee on Military AZ
fairs. II is not improbable that they have
speculntcd regarding future contingencies
in this vein but that they have given up
all hope that the next House will be Rcpub-
liCan is probably untrue. No man who has
the best interests of the army at heart, as
they have, will give up that hope until
after all the returns are in. A Democratic
House, even with JOE sJonNsToN MS its
chairman of that committee, would not hesi-
tate, against any advice he might give, TO
20 ahead with the policy innugurated last
winter Of reducing the army and crippling
its efficiency. Besides this. JOHNSTON, him
self West Pointer. would not grieve over
such q reduction if it were made in time to
permit the reinstatement Of other rebel
West Pointers In the event of the election OF
a Democratic President-an event he fondly
hopcsI for. Under such contingencies the
ARM Register would give the information
regarding n number Of JOHNsTON's friends
that such and such an officer had resigned
and served under the Confeder.cy during
the war between the States"

PRIOR to the late unpleasantnesg, tho
South Carolina Democracy subsisted upon
the bounty of the Brak Of he state, an in
stitution which was especially designed to
support the chivalrc aristocracy of the
Palmetto State. When the war ended, the
assets of this bank were found to contain
nothing but the worthless promissory notes
of the HAorPToNs, MrDDLEToHs, BUTLERs,
GADspENs, d ID genus omne. Then 1t was
that the impoverished aristOcracy, vulturc
like, lowered around the South Carolina
Railroad, which for the last thirteen years
has been supporting them in idencss. But
the Northern holders of the securities oi
that road became tired of seeing their prop
erty squandered by the proud, but i'm.
poverished Palmetto gentry, and put an
estoppal to their nice little game by having
Judge BOSD appoint a receiver TO take
charge of the road. OTHELLo's occupation
is now gone, and the MAGRAws, BARKERs
and other Broad street sharks will be forced
10 ADOPT some honest vocation and cease tc
live upon the earnings Of others.

the principal capital Of that party now that

THE Louisville COUricr-,JOurRdl thinks
that a proper enforcement Of the laws is de-
votion on the part OF the Administration to
electing Republicans TO Office. That is the
Democratic way Of putting it. They set the
laws At defiance and trample them under
.oot to rob Republicans of their rights MS
citizens, and when the Government inter-
poses to vindCate its own laws, then it is
charged with "electing Republicans at all
"harzards." We should think the Govern
mcut would plead guilty to enforcing the
laws, and leave consequences to take care of
themselves.
