Where they have no hope of electing one of
their party to Congress, they will center on
an Independent Democrat to defeat the reg

the proposed investigation of the electoral
crime by Congress, and says there is no
doubt that Florida and Louisiana
voted for Gov. Tilden; that he was law

of the Presidency be condoned, others
will follow, and our republican system

Springs South.
The South need not think that We
are unmindful Of its opposition to the
lynching Of ravishers because we are not
constantly harpng upon the disgusting
subject. Nor need it pretend to misun-
derstand US 1t has no cause to Won
der whether we are for or against gov
eminent by MODS" because We have up
held the practise OF executing summary
punishment upon the brute who violates
female innocence and helplessness. We
have said again and again 50 often that
stupidity itself could not misunderstood
our meaning, that that crime Is excep-
tional on account of its peculiar atrocity
and deserves to be exceptionally dealt
with. No one has a right to intimate
that we are for "a government of mobs'
because we approve the custom founded
upon this belief The common judg-
ment Of society acquit7 the protector of
his family who shoots down like a dog
the seducer that violates its purity and
brings dishonor upon it. We suppose
even the eminent juriseonsult of the
South, callous as he is, would Justify
such an act; but does it follow that
he would be in favor of a resort to a
remedy so extreme for every wrong?
Since the war, the horrible crime of
ravishment BY a class of brutes in hui
man form who have been taught that
freedom is license, has been alarmingly
on the increase, and it derives encour-
agement from the teachings of the Holly
Springs South and journals of that ilk,
who forget its enormity in their anxiety
to give it the benefit of the laws delay.
To arrive at a true conclusion i'll re-
gard to the operations of the present
high tariff, Senator Beck, of Kentucky,
has offered a resolution, and the Senate
has adopted it, asking the Secretary of
the Treasury to furnish all the informa-
ton in his possession about the total
consumption of m ,nufactured articles af-
fected by the tariff, including those i'm
ported into the country as well as those
manufactured here. 1t must be borne
in mind that this is a subject of general
importance, A tariff upon imported
goods is tax upon the consumer; thus Il
contemporary aptly puts it, Il certain
cheap kind of alpaca which, in England
costs about cents yard, is Subject to
duty of cents yard, and is sold in
this country at 20 cents yard. 1t takes
20 yards to make a dress, the duty on
which at D cents yard, is 81 and this
is the tax which every woman who buys
an alpaca dress must pay to the home
manufacturer. This is a simple and
fair illustration of the working of the
tariff system. Duties should be impo-
sed strictly for revenue purposes.

RBQRs. FOURTH BRIGADE, S. G. Y. T., !
CHARLESTON, S. c. February I, 1878.
General Joseph b. Johnston, Richmond,
Va:
General,--I have the honor and pleasure
to invite YOU to visit Charleston as the guest
OF the Fourth brigade on the 22d OF Feb
-ruary instant, Washington's day, when the
brigade will be reviewed by Governor Wade
Hampton.
A number of distinguished gentlemen
have promised to be with us on Washing
toms day, at the invitation Of the brigade
and of the commands; but the brigade
feel, and the sentiment is common to our
whole people, that the reunion will be
sadly incomplete unless we are honored
with the presence Of the one living Confed-
crate commander in whom the southern peo-
pie never lost confidence during the glad
ness and anguish of war, and for whom
they cherish love which only grows
stronger rs the years pass, and new gene
ration fills the places Of those whom you
led to victory in Virginia and the West.
/ trust that your engagements will per-
nit you to accept our invitation.
Respectfully, RUDOLPH SIEGLING,
Brigadier. General Commanding Fourth Br-
gade South Carolina volunteer troops.
RICHMOND, February 10, 1878.
General Rudolph Siegiing: sa3
General, The letter OF the 7th instant, in
which you invite me to visit Charleston on
"Washington's Gay" as the guest OF the
Fourth brigade Of South Carolina volun-
teer troops, was received..in due time, but
have been prevented from acknowledging
it sooner by severe illness in my family.
Much to my regret, business obligations
make 1t impossible for me to visit Charles
ton so soon as the 22d; so that ] cannot have
the great pleasure you offer. And assure
you that it would be a great-a very great
qualification to me to see your brigade under
arms, and to meet the many Of my old mill
tary associates who will be present.
With cordial thanks for the very fattering
and agreeable manner in which you con-
veyed this invitation, / am most respectfully
and truly yours, j. e. JOHNSTON.
