verses. In 1914 he published his
first volume of poems, with the pro-
ceeds of which he started on a foot
journey through Europe. In lS49
he became connected with the New
York Tribune, and soon afterward
began an extensive system of for
eign tours, which formed the basis
of his ten or dozen books of
travel, the last Of which, EGYPT
and Iceland" appeared in 1874.
Lately he has written some fiction,
and has devoted much time to a
translation of Goethe's Faust. At
the time of his death he was at
work on a life of Goethe. He spent
much of his life abroad, married n
German wife, aud about a year ago
was appointed 10y President Hayes
United States Minister at Berlin.
He has long been suffering from a
dropsical compsical complaint, and
his death was not unexpected.

The Kimpton Case.

Governor Hampton has sent the fol-
lowing communication to Governor
Rice, of Massachusetts:
SIR-Owing to my unavoidable ab-
scncc, your letter refusing to surrender
Hiram III. KimptOn, u fugitive from
Justice arrested in Massachusetts, for
whose delivery upon Indictment rcgu-
farly found against him here for a
crime committed in this State, l, as the
Governor Of South Carolina, made de-
mand upon you, as the Governor Of
Massachusetts, in accordance with the
Constitution Of the United States and
the act Of Congress passed in pursll-
anee thereof, has remained unan-
swercd. l regret that the Chief IN
ecutivc Of the great State Of Massacllt-
sets should have committed so fla
grant violation of the supreme law of
the land, q violation irrcparablc in its
nature, as the State suffering thereby
has no possible redress. Had you con-
fined yourself to giving a simple rcltls-
al to surrender the fugitive, | should
make no further comments upon your
letter, as the disregard ofthc Executive
authority of one State concerns the
whole people of tho United States; but

your action on the ground that in your
Judgment the object in procuring the
Indictment against Patterson, Parker
aud kimpton, "docs not appear to be
for the purpose Of trying Kimpton for
tho crime charged against him, but for
n different purpose" il is my duty, as
tho Governor ofSouth Carolina, to add
that your statement is entirely unwar-
rantcd, and to rcpcl the unworthy I'M

IN 1876 was directly proportional to
the number OF re(f-shirts. No red
shirtcd county went Radical in that
campaign. We might philosophize OH
the reason for this, and show that tho
same enthusiasm that would impcl
even the grcy-bcard scxagcnarian to
don flaming rcd-shirt, would also
enable him to overcome all obstacles.
But we shall be content with simply
stating the fact that q rcd-shirt is an
orillanmc Of victory. Let all Demo-
Gratis who have not one already provide
themselves in time for the next rally,
and for the final contest at the polls.

that he wanted to ask the Governor a
question. The people of Sumter have
become disgusted with his imputenec
and they were about to CRAFTY Sam by
giving him a first class beating; but
Governor Hampton commanded the
peace and profcsscd his entire willing-
ness to answer any question Lee might
wish to ask. Sam, however, not wish
ing to be confoundcd in the presence
of his duslky dupcs, prudently rcfraincd
from putting his questions. Sam is
the same fellow who played the role of
rcformcr in the Green campaign and
dupcd tho Conservatives. He is well
known now, and his day is past. AS
the backwoods judge said, the people
want nothing from Sam now but
silence, and thcy want blamed little of
that.

IT nEHeovEs THE people, while pay
ing strict attention to county affairs,
also to have All eye open for the Con-
grcssional election. The Radicals have
not yet nominated man against Colo
ncl Evins; but it is by no means
probable that they will suffer him to
have walk over. Old A. S. Wallace
is lying low at present, but he is on
adept in the arts Of "still hunt" and
the chances are ten to one that he will
spring his trap Immediately before the
election. II Ohio and Indiana, in
October, give the Radicals any hope,
they will food this Congressional dis
trict with speakers and with money
too, If tho bread and butter brigade
will stand an assessment. The success
OF Colonel Evins is just as essential to
the political life of South Carolina as
that of Governor Hampton or tho
county ticket. The Democrats must
control at Washington as we'll as in
South Carolina. Let Us keep an eve
on Wallace.

More Troops.

When the House Of Representatives
at Washington last session was dis
cussing the propricty of inserting a
clause i'll tho appropriation bill that the
army should never again bo used to
control elections in tho South, the
resolution was modified SO as to read
that it should only be used in accord
ance with the constitution, and Mr..
Gibson, Of Louisiana, made quite a
speech defending Hayes from the i'm
piled charge that he might prostitute
his Office as Grant had done. Eulo-
gizing the fraudulent president to the
skies, Mr.. Gibson thought tic question
OF using troops should be left entirely
to the President, as tho constitution
was safe in his hands. AT the time we
criticised this speech, and protested
against placing this confidence in the
President, quoting from Jefferson in
defence Of our position. A week had
not elapsed before General Sherman,
in communicating the instructions to
the army, took occasion to interpret
the resolution, and assumed under it
the right to use the troops precisely as
Grant had done. Indeed, no dragoon-
ing of the South has ever taken place
that tho Radicals did not Justify hy
claiming that Grant was acting strictly
within the constitution. The bcauti-
tlll resolution Of the House thus went
to grass III the first round, and the use
OF troops was left solely to The con-
science Of Hayes. That conscience
has been rapidly growing smaller and
tougher under the presence of the
stalwart Republicans. Hayes has i'll
contincntly backed down from his
other high-flown prctcnsions, and only
his "Southcrn policy" remains.
What now ofthis policy? Congress-
man Charlie Foster, the presidents
right-hand man, now says that the
South has been ungratcful. Secretary
McCrary, Of the cabinet, asserts in q
speech that "the South is on trial." and
that no excuse now exists for carving
the Southern States Democratic by the
peculiar means heretofore used. Sec
rotary Evarts also intimatcs that we
shall see what we shall sec. Parties
well skilled in politics torcsco trouble
to the South in all this. Phcy reason
in this wise: Grant will bo nominated
for president in 1880, and will run on
platform of force and intimidation.
Hayes, who has no backbone, will be
told that he must shape his course to
suit the Grant programme, and he will
let Grant run the machine. Troops
Will be sent to the South, as they have
been in every presidential election
since the war, and deputy marshals
will be as thick as blackberrics in
June. South Carolina, having largo
colored majority, will he considered
debatable ground, and the whole force
OF tho Federal administration will be
brought TO bear down here. The scenes
OF 1876 will bo renewed. 1t is need.
less to cry down this programme as
absurd. Tho Radical party has move,
yet tailed to do anything either absurd
or outrageous to further it's own ends
It's bold robbery Of the presidency
shows 1t is capable of ANYTHING. i
Dehooves the Democrats to put fortl
every oxertion to checkmate this con
spiracy. If they donot they arc lost.

tensive bank robbery was committed

dressed man drove to the office of
the jackson County Railroad and
called the cashier to the sidewalk
and held u brief conversation re-
garding bad conductor in the
company's employ. Shortly after
the cashiers return to his office he
discovered that the safe had been
robbed of $1,000 in money and
twenty-o one thousand dollars in
county bonds and mutual coupons,
also II life insurance policy of Thos.
Carrigan for twenty-five thousand
dollars and other valuable papors.
Subsequently tho box continuing
tho bonds, &C., was found near tho
express companys stables, still
having in it the insurance policy and

gone. These belonged to Bernard

robbers, as the numbers and loss
have been reported to tho proper
