Wholesale arrests are being made in
the low country by United States officials
upon the afiidavits of ignorant and per-
jured negroes, charging Democrats with
fraud in the election and with intimida-
ton of voters. These cases will not
amount to anything with fair trial, but
if they are to come on before the sub
servient Judge Bond, with packed juries
and perjured witnesses, they may give a
great deal of annoyance, though we
have no idea that this vindictive Radical
Judge can secure a conviction before
even packed jury in the United States
Court. Indeed, it is notorious that many
of these prosecutions are not expected
nor intended for anything more than a
justification of the charges of fraud which
the defeated candidates are making, and
after hanging over for few terms they
will be quietly dismissed and nothing
more heard of them. There is also an
other point in these prosecutions which
is worthy of the consideration of the peo-
pie of the whole country, which is, that
hundreds of warrants are made out and
served by villainous commissioners and
deputy marshals who procure them to be
taken out for the purpose of making the
fees allowed by the government. There
is no reason for such an extensive array
of cases in this State, and the whole pro-
cedure is of pace with MerrilPs in
famous swindles nnder the pretense OF
extirpating Ku Kluxism. In that mat
ter there were about one hundred war
rants issued for every one case that had
enough in it to be served. We have no
doubt that this species of rascelity is be-
ing practiced now, and that the taxpay-
ers of the United States will have to pay
one hundred thousand dollars or more
to these incompetent and vicious Federal
officers, who are using their positions to
crafty their personal enmity or their po-
litical interests. The course now being
pursued in South Carolina is an outrage,
but we have been long subjected to such
treatment by Federal officers. The
thing has, however, gone about far
enough, and it is time to put stop to it,
and teach the rascal; who are engaged in
it that the men who forge prison chains
very frequently wear them themselves.
Indictments in the State Courts against
those who make the afidavits would
very properly lie for perjury, and after
the discharge Of the cases in the Federal
Courts they might be prosecuted for ma.
licious prosecution. We should teach
the rascals who institute these cases that
it is u perilous undertaking to seek po-
litical revenge by groundless proseca-
tions.

charges of election frauds in South Caro-
lima, and many of them cannot find
terms severe enough for the expression Of
their condemnation. These same parti-
san journals have published the election
returns from this State for the past
twelve years, and, strange to say, they
never discovered anything wrong about
the elections until the Democrats OBJ
tained the government, although the
most glaring and infamous election
frauds were perpetrated at every election.
We are no. able to say that no frauds
have been committed in our late elcc-
tions, but if any have been, there is no
doubt that the Republicans have sinned
more than they have been sinned against,
and whatever frauds have been perpetra-
ted by Democrats have been individual
and without the sanction of the party.
Our people abhor any tampering with
the sanctity of the free ballot, and are as
ready to prevent or punish it as the peo-
pie of New York OF Pennsylvania. The
election here has been as free and fair as
in either Of the States named, and there
is no doubt that it has been fairer than
any that was ever held while the Radi-
calls had sway in our State. AS strange
as it may seem, the Radicals have made
an ignominious failure for the lack of
shrewd and experienced leaders. In
many Counties they failed to have print
ed tickets, and the negroes in large num-
bers refused to vote because they were
afraid to trust any one except their Rad
ical leaders to fix up tickets for them.
In other Counties their candidates, see
ing that they would be unable to control
the colored vote, and realizing that defeat
was certain, counselled the colored people
not to vote, in order that the smallness
of the vote might give them plausible
ground to charge intimidation, fraud,
and so forth. The papers which lend
themselves to circulating the falsehoods
and libels emanating from defeated Rad
ical candidates, are simply making them
selves the willing tools of men who have
neither regard for truth nor honor. If
all the votes which are the subject of
reasonable suspicion were thrown out,
the Democrats would still control the
State, and every County in it, except
Beaufort. To charge fraud is one thing
to prove it is another. The proof is the
only justification of the charge; and as
the election is in the Courts, public
opinion should not be formed until after
the judicial determination OF the ques-
ton. Whenever it undergoes this test
the wild statements that have been tele-
graphed and written to horrify the coun-
try and infame the public mind against
the people of South Carolina, will dwin-
die into insignifcance, assuming the
proportions of mole-hill, instead of a
huge mountain of fraud as now reported.
The charges of fraud only emanate from
defeated candidates, and the yell they
are raising is prompted by the hope of
procuring Federal appointments. 1t is
about time for the honest people of the
Union to call halt on the game as
played at present, as it is likely to be
one in which the people are to receive
nothing, except the pleasure of paying
the bills.

The notorious Radical fomentor, E. W.
M. Mackey, who has recently been Wilt
flying and traducing the good people of
South Carolina in communications to
different Republican journals at the
North, has gone one step too far in
charging Mr.. w. L. Daggett, the FORE
man of the Charleston Mews and Courier
Job Printing Office, with stuffing twenty
five hundred tickets into the election box
at the Palmetto Engine House precinct
in the City of Charleston. Mr.. Daggett
has very properly felt it his duty to muz-
zle this defamer of the good people of
South Carolina, and has indicted him for
libel in the State Courts, thus giving the
State Solicitor the opportunity of prose-
cutting the arch conspirator against good
government, for one of the most oficious
and uncalled for libels that has been
perpetrated. The Nervousness of the
offense is heightened by the fact that Mr..
Mackey is lawyer, and the assistant
prosecuting officer of the United States
in South Carolina. If he Is convicted
the severest penalties Of the law should
be imposed upon him..

President Hayes has just pardoned n
gang of Republicans who were convicted
of ballot-box stufIing in Cincinnati, and
vet at the same time he is greatly in
censed at the reported violations of the
election laws in some of the Southern
States, ridiculously having the kind of
tickets that were voted in South Carolina
carried to the White House and manipu-
lated in his presence that he might un-
dcrstand the mode of ballot.bnx stulling.
OF course, the manipuators were Re
publicans, and of course they showed
Mr.. Hayes how to stuff ballot-5oxes;
but did it occur to his iraudulency that
their familiarity with the process of
stufing ballot-bcxes does not prove any
thing on the Democrats. They were
only showing him how the Radicals have
carried elections for the eight years they
ruled in South Carolina. We wonder,
however, if set of Southern Democrats
should be convicted of the same offence
as the Cincinnati Radicals if Mr.. Hayes
would pardon them also?
