Democrats Demanding Proofs.
WAsmNGToN, December. 5.

A highly important conference Of
conspicuous Southern Democrats was
held this evening, at which it was de-
cided to open an attack on Hayes mes
sage, in the House, by calling on him TO
produce proof of his statements. Sen
ator Lamar, Gordon and Butler, Repre-
sentatives Ellis and Gibson, and Evins,
of South Carolina, and Slcmmons, of Ar
kansas, were present. 1t was decided
that Gibson should present resolution,
which, after reciting in 4 preamble the
utterances of the message will request
Hayes to inform the House of the nature,
extent and sources of proof upon which
these grave charge arc made against cx-
tcnsive regions of country.
1t is said by those at the conference,
and was strongly asserted there, that
Hayes has not and cannot produce
crcditable evidence upon which to
substantiatc his charges. NJ. C. Butler,
for instances, said that us far rs ntimi-
dation in the Congressional District
where he lives is concerned, he would
willingly rest his case on negro testimony.
In other instances of alleged outrages
which were brought forward, those par
ticipatng in the conference expressed the
belief that it could he satisfactorily
shown lha; where they wcre not the un-
aided invention of Republicans they
were largely exaggerated b. them.
Another method suggested for pro-
ceciing 10 clear up these vague charges
is afforded by Il recent charge made by
the somewhat notorou, Swails, who.e
account of the so-callcd Beaufort bull
dozing has been wildly quutcd. 5waiis
prctends that he fled charges and proof
of intimidation before Judge Bond, who
declined to act upon them and enforce
the law. 1t is proposed TO make this al
legged failure Of Judge Bond the ground
for prclcrring articles of impeachment
and referring them to tic Judiciary
Committee.

rations for his family. This seven dol
lars is raised by weekly collections after
religious services. The beauty about
this matter is that the congregation is
never behind in payment. Think of it.
\ colorrd congregation pays 5000 salary
and S36+ rations, making ::S6.l, and Il
nice little parsonage. The white people
might learn lesson from these Jealous
coiored people.
- The Marion Msrcham and Ermcr
gives the following particulars OF Sc
rious shooting scrape, which occurred in
that place on Saturday, 30lh ult.: Mr..
Thomas II. Kirlon had some difficulty
with Mr.. ID. +. Berry. He related the
fact to Mr.. j. T. Dozicr, and expressed
apprehensions of further trouble, rs
Berry, he said, had made threats against
him. To avoid Il collision with Berry, it
appears that kirton, in going home
about G:30 p. M, went roundabout
way. Mr.. Dozicr, seeing him, and
thinking to play of a practical joke upon
kirton, walked rapidly towards him,
whereupon Kirton fired his pistol, he
says, in the air. Dozier also fired his, it
is said, into the air, whcreupon kirton,
believing his enemy was really upon
him seeking his life, fred second shot,
the ball passing through the body of
Dozer. They were perfectly friendly,
and no one regrets the unfortunate affair
more than Mr.. kirton.

The world renowned success Of Iostettcr's Bit

Pittsburgh, Pa under their own immediate super
vision, employing so hands in that department.
Ten cylinder printing presses, folding machines,

tercsting reading concerning health and numerous
testimonials TO the efficacy Of IIosetter's Bttcrs,
amusement varied information, astronomical cal
culations and chronological items, &c. which can

GEN. GARY AND TIE BOND COURT.

The concurrent resolutions Offered by
Gen. Gary TO abolish the Bond Court
having been rejected in the Senate, Gen.
G.. on last Monday introduced the follow
ing preamble AMI resolutions, which were
ordered for consideration on yesterday:
Whereas, in article t, section l, of the
constitution of the State, which reads as
follows: "Thc judicial power of this
State shall be vested in i Supreme Court
and two Circuit Courts, to wit: 4 Court
of Common Pleas, having civil iurisdic-
ton, and 4 Court of General Sessions,
with criminal jurisdiction only, in Pro-
bate Courts and in Justices Of the Peace.
The General Assembly may also estab-
lish such municipal and other inferior
courts as may be deemed necessary"
Also, in section 0 of the same article,
which reads, "The Judges of the Su-
preme Court and Circuit Courts shall,
at stated times, receive n compensation
for their services, to be fixed by law,
which shall not be diminished during
their continuance in Office. They shall
not be allowed any fees or pcrquisitcs of
office, nor shall they hold any other Of
flee of trust or profit under this State,
the United States or any other power"
Resolrecl, That it be referred to the

port
l. Whether the Court of Claims crc-
ated by resolution of the General AS
sembly, approved March %, 1873, COM
posed of three of the Circuit Judges Of
this State, be a constitutional court?
.. If said court is constitutional
court, has not the Circuit Judges who
have accepted office under said rcsolu-
ton in said court vacated acceptance of
Office in said court their Offices as Circuit
Judges of State?
8. Ii said court is not constitutional
court, are not said Circuit Judges pro-
hibited, by article 4, section 9, from
receiving and appropriating to their own
use the five hundred dollars appropri-
ated to each Of them for services rem
dered in said Court of Claims?
4. Has the General Assembly the
power to waive the sovereignty of the
State and make the State party defend
ant in any cause of acten?
5. Does not the sovereignty of the
State reside in the people, and must not
any act that affects that sovereignty be
done by the people in convention assem-
blcd?
6. What would be the legal effect and
force of a decision pronounced by an
unconstitutional court.

- Congressman Evins, of South Car
olina, in conversation with Congressman
Foster, of Ohio, gave as reason why
there was little or no opposition to the
Democratic nominees for Congress in his
State at the last congressional election
among the colorcd voters, the fact that
the colored men have learned from ex-
perience that they are not rs we'll of to-
day rs when they were slaves, and mas
much as the carpet-bag politicians rep
resenting the Republican party have had
unlimited control of the State govern
ment for the past ten years they have
concluded that it was to the domination
of the Republican party that they owe
their impoverished condition. He added
that the Republican party must have had
some confidence in the good sense of the
black race, or the right of suffrage ought
never to have been given them. They
have exercised their powers of observa-
ton to the extent of condemning by their
support of Democratic nominees for Con-
gress the claim that the Republicans were
their best friends.- Washington Special

= Travelling by coach in Colorado is
often made interesting by robberies and
sometimes by exciting accidents. A
coach containing FIVE passengers slid off
the narrow road into a gulch, near Iced
vile, and rolled over and over until it
struck. bottom side up, in a creek sixty
feet below. Three or four horses were
killed, yet the passengers escaped with
only slight injuries. They shivered
around fire until daylight and patched
one another's bruises with paper.
- Alexander Fl. Stephens the other
day, while ascending the stone steps
leading to the House of Representatives
at Washington, on crutches, slipped, and
would have fallen directly backward but
for the assistance of his attendant, who
caught him in his arms. AS it resulted
the only injury received is painful
strain or wrench OF the left knee, which
will probably confinc him to his room for
some time.
The New England railroads have
voted that the half-iare tickets to clergy
men shall be discontinued from and
after the lst January, 1879.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Dec. II.
Gov. Hampton was unanimously cleo
ted in the Senate, and received all the
votes cast in the House except two Rad
ical negroes from Beaufort, on yesterday
for the position of United States Senator,
to succeed Patterson on the 4th of next
March. The election was declared to-
day in joint assembly. Itwas q splendid,
though deserved, tribute to our Gov
ernor.
On yesterday at II o'clock, while the
election for Senator was progressing, the
surgeons amputated Gov. Hampton's
leg, taking it off about six inches below
the knee. He stood the operation we'll,
and, though his condition is critical, his
friends are hopeful of his recovery.

The election of Gov. Wade Hampton
to the United States Senate on last Tues
day, to succeed Patterson on the 4th day
of March next, will give universal salts
faction to the people Of the State and to
the Democratic party throughout the
United States. The State is now re-
deemed from Radical misrule, and Fed
eral politics must claim the attention of
her rulers, and we know of no man at
the present time who can better subserve
the interests of the whole country in
Congress than Gov. Hampton. In the
past he has filled every official position
which has been confded to him with
honor to himself and to the satisfaction
of the people. He now enters upon a
sphere of far greater responsibility, and
we feel assured that the interests of the
State which lie will represent in the Fed
eral Congress will be fully protected and
promoted. Butler and Hampton wor-
thy successors Of Calhoun, Preston and
Pinckncy. With such representation as
these, South Carolina may hope soon to
regain her ancient prestige in the coun-
ellis of the nation.
