selves to stand In The attitude Of defenders or
advocates Of the National banks, while in
point Of fact the party Is divided on the sew
eral phases on the financial and monetary
question What they ought to have done
was to avoid the thing of being placed in q
false attitude and to have stood firmly on
their record as shown by their acts. large
majority Of the Republicans In Congress
voted for the silver bill, and the same Is true
as to the Fort bill to prevent the further re-
tlrement of greenbacks. Their record in Con,
gress is good, but they have failed to avail
themselves OF their strength. The proper
thing for them to have, done was to con-
evnced dissatisfaction and to Impress them
with the fact that they could accomplish
their wishes In the main by remaining with
the old party; Instead Of which they have re-.
ceived no encouragement from the leaders o.
the party, and have been allowed TO drift
away. and now the effect Is felt.

ABBEV1LLE PRESS & BANNER AND THE
STATE BOARD OF EQUALIZATION.

The IrhS' aud Banner is greatly exercised
over the action of the State Board of Equal
ization in raising the assessment of real
estate in Abbeville County, and so far as it
reflects upon the action OF Col. J. n, Brown.
1t does that gentleman great injustice, as he
was unavoidably absent from the meeting
OF the Board until tho last day, and had
nothing to do in raising the assessment.
he states, however, that had he been pres
ent. no doubt he would have conourred
with the Board, and is willing 20 bear his
share of the responsibility. He says that
he was present when the Board increased
the assessment on incorporated cities, towns
and villages. and it raised it on property in
the Abbevil!c towns and villages twelve DER
cent, in Anderson thirteen per cent. and
in different amounts in certain other
counties. If Abbeville is grievously
wronged, no doubt the Legislature.
where she will be SO ably represented
will extend to her the relief to which she
IS entitled. The great depression in busi-
ness and the stringency in money matters,
have caused q decline in real estate every.
where, and forced sales show q great fall
ing off in prices, but the aspayers in some
Counties have come up nearer to their for
mer assessments than in vthers. It is pre-
sumed that the Board will explain their
reasons for their action, rs it is made
source of so much grievous complaint by
our neighbor.

A CARD.
PESpLEros, s. c., Oct. 18th, 1878

PEEDLEToN, >. c., Oct 18th, 1878.
Mr.. EpIroR 1t would seem from local
i'll the Williamson Standard of this week,
and the comments of individuals, that it is
apprchended that one of the defeated candi-
dates for the Senate may run as All inde-
pendent. AS far as 1 am concerned, de-
sire it distinctly understood that no consid-
Grafton under the Heavens could induce
me TO place myself, or allow myself to be
placed, in such q position. A result has
been reached in accordance with the rules
established by the Democratic party itself,
and the individual members of the party
must, to man, support the nomination, or
else by seeking to redress the imagined or
real wrongs of to-day. they will surely work
the complete dsintegration of the party,
and place Anderson County absolutely in
the hands of the Radicals. I stated durin;.
the canvass that I would have no quarrel
with any one who might vote against me.
as every one certainly had the right to vote
in accordance with the dictates of his con-
science. But did and still do dcplore the
manner in which some few of, the candi-
dates So" fit TO conduct the canvass. Such
practice once becoming the rule will prove
itself at variance to the best interest OF all
the people. But the time to correct mis-
takes is not now. What we want q, this
time is the burying of private prejudices
and such n soidification of the party or
ganization that no internal heat can melt
or dissipate it.
To my friends, wherever scattered over
the County, return my warmest thanks
for the fcrvent manner in which they sup.
ported and maintained riy cause, and es.
pecially do thank them for their unswcrv-
ing confidence, maintained to the last in
my honesty of purpose and integrity, amidst
the thousand and one Misrepresentation
and lies circulated by designing persons
broadcast over the County against me.
