A Raid ON williamsburg.

kTNGsrREE, s. c., October 25.
The outrageous stories of Swails at
" .iaiiinstOii arc producing soine fruit.
Yesterday District Attorney Northrop.
with United States Commissioner p. l..
Wiggin and two constables, appeared in
our little town to look after the rights
and wrongs Of the great bribe-taker.
During yesterday and to-day the fol-
lowing persons have been arrested: G..
p. Nelson, T. NJ. Gilland, ]. S. Hey-
ward, j. G.. Smith, r. D. Norton, Henry
Davis, G. j. Graham, w. ID. Fitch.
Hugh Cooper, DR.. S. d. NJ. Byrd John
Frierson, DR.. J. S. James, VIM. M.
Kinder. w. j. Lee. 2. w. Sessions and
j. A. Kelly.
Under advice an examination was
waived, and bonds were given by all the
parties for their appearance Mt the next
term of the United States Court.
The affidavits were mostly made by
Ignorant negroes and the charges are ali
under sections 5,5GS and $500. The
most of the persons arrested are charged
with interfering with Swails in his nd
yocacy of Rainey fer Congress ut the
White Oak meeting, although Swails
himself says it was only club meeting
not called to advocate any ones election.
The others are arrested for giving Swails
notice to leave the place.
We are not scared worth n cent. The
Democracy of Williamsburg mean to
carry this election. No odls are asked
of Swails. Every one speaks in the
kindest terms of District Attorney Nor
throp and Judge Wiggin for the respect
fui manner in which they have dis
charged q disagreeable and unpleasant
duty. But rs neither of the sections of
the Revised Statutes can possibly be tor
tured into covering the alleged offences
against Swails, it is not expected that
their prosecution will ever be heard of
again. Cor. Neps and Courier.

= Jefferson Davis, Jr., whose death
in Memphis from yellow fever has been
announced, was in Louisville a few weeks
since. He was then on his way South
from the North, in company with his
married sister. He was asked if he did
not fear to return while the epidemic was
at its worst, but he replied that his sis
ter wished to be at the side Of her
husband, who WAS in Memphis, and he
felt it his duty TO accompany her. He
was not in the least apprehensive for
b'inself, and the news OF his death is
particularly shocking to those who met
him here, and who remember him rs An
exceedingly amiable young gentleman.

The arrest of citizens of this State by
the United States States foF alleged violations
of Sections 5,50S and $50 Of the United
States Statutes still continues. Sixteen
citizens of Williamsburg were arrested
last week upon afFidavits made mostly by
ignorant negroes, carried before United
States Commissioner and bailed for their
appearance ut the next term OF tie Uni
ted Statcs Coart. The objects of these
nrreata. If haretnfnra concealed Ia nngg
apparent. It is to influence the present
election in Sumter, williamsburg and
other counties, and to revive in the
North hatred and ill.will to the South
by the report of Southern outrages, and
thus influence the election in Northern
States, and pave the way for the Presi-
DENTAL election in 1880. Tho difficulty
Is that bad men, such as Lee of Sumter,
and swails of Williamsburg, go to Wash
s;tSss ;t and :ss sis si administration; is a..
sar to their outrageous stories, and net
upon them as if true; that false afi-
davits are made by ignorant negroes in
cuIpatiDg those whom they dislike, and
oil tais prompted by corrupt party lead
ers for party purposes. The Courts of
the State protect the humblest negro in
his rights, and if those rights we're as
Eailed in Sumter and williamsburg as
alleged, these Courts afford ample pro-
tection and redress; but the United
states Court was resorted 20 for the sim
pie reason that protection and redress
was not the object in view, but political
capital for Northern cliines whore the
truth could not be asceftained.

There is u decided disposition in some
counties in the State to fight the Demo
cratic party, and the nsidous ard dam
gerous policy of running Independent
candidates has been resorted to, by the
enemies of good government, to accom-
plish their desire to destroy the Demo-
cratic party and promote their own in
terests at the expense Of the public good.
This has induced the nomination of In
depenn.nt candidates in Charleston and
elsewhere, which, if allowed 10 20 un-
checked, will result in the speedy de-
struction OF Democratic supremacy.
Our people cannot now allow Indepen-
dents to succeed. Even if they should
be our best friends, we should frown them
down end scorn them. All true Demo.
Gratis of South Carolina should hold in
contempt and disreputc any man who for
the sake of Office would antagonize the
party of good government by running as
an Independent candidate now.
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1878-10-31

IF the Democratic party is ever de-
stroyed in South Carolina it will be by
Democrats falling out and fighting among
themselves. Let us, therefore. in An
derson County remain true to our party,
and by voting solidly for its nominees,
help to continue its influence and con-
troll over the government of our Stlte.
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1878-10-31

If Anderson County should show q
revival of the Independent spirit by any
disafIeciion from the nominees of the
party at this time, it would prove very
disastrous to the Democratic party, and
to tho best interests of the whole State.
Every Democrat ought, for the sake of
his party, to vote the straight Democratic
ticket on next Tuesday, and vcto the
whc!e &C i.

distinctly urged by the official head OF the
convict prison department, Col. DU CANE, in
an address before the Social Science Asso-
citation. 1t is obvious that an immense saw
ing would be effected in the expenditure on
police and judicial machinery by the final
removal from society OF the professional
criminal, to say nothing OF the pcrcoptible
decrease in the volume Of dcprcdations, now
estimated at no less n sum than Gl900O0 an
nually in England and Wales. 1t is added
that, owing to the proyerbially short lives Of
habitual criminals, no such glut OF convict
prisons for incorrigiblcs would take place
az tho tables OF an actuary adapted to nor
NAL lives would indicate. In the address
just mentioned, however, tho chairman Of
tho convict prison directors admits tho
many advantages Inherent in the practice
of transportation and this il not the only
sign Of willingness on the part Of English
public opinion TO revive the old scheme of
penal colonies as logical sequence to
new classification OF offenders, and an cs-
sential part Of more discriminating and
effective convict system.
