Our Duty.

Anderson Lntelligencer gives
IItiia following good advice TO the
Democrats of South Carolina. "Thc
Democrats of South Carolina should
remember that the election of Re-.
publican in New York is due to o
split in the Democratic party. Those
who. seek to divide us in this State
will Just as surely lead us back into
the Radi2f'al !!f'!! camp, 6; and therefore all
good g;sl citizens oHgght !.Etg to put their feet
ss9ua.reiiy upon any iindepcntism or
ether move Which 81 locks to division
in the party. Whatever evils exist
either e sr IN the State or in the counties
can be corrected as easily in the
Democratic party as in Tic Rapubli
can, and it is The duty Of our people
TO quit talking about voting against
the Democratic party because certain
things do not please them. If we
had the Republican party in power
there would be even more things that
would displeasc us. Let all of our
fights be stTilctly within r, our own par
", and all of US Hnite f0, crush Re
publicanism in every form it may as.
sumo, fer it is our enemy and the
enemy of our country. Remember
- J.
that we are only paying one-thifd Of
the.taXes which we paid in the days
or Ratlicalism. This should cause us
To- tesi'Ate before we do anything to
weaken the Democracy, by
word or by deed.",

Attempt to Lynch.

On Friday evening last, about 7
o'clock, and before the stores had
been closed in the town of Lexington,
n party Of about fifty or seventy-fve
mounted men rode up to the jail at
that place, called for the Sheriff and
demanded the surrender OF the color.
ed nan who had been imprisoned
there on the charge of being the mnur.- ny
derer of Mr.. Hook. They were not
masked, aand their dcmeanor was very
quiet and determined. The Sheriff
informed them that the man they
sought was not there, bgt they in
sisted on proof of that faet. Tia cir
committee were then taken into the
Jail and shown the receipt of the Su-
perintendent Of the PenitentiarY for
the body of the negro. The party
then quietly withdrew and rode out
'of town, making no demonstrators
except the firing of one or two pistols.
They had come through Main street
from the upper part of the village,
and their approach was very sudden
and quiet. The residents expressed
great Indignation ct this demonstra
ton and will have n fair trial accord
ing 10 law. 1t is believed that jury
will do exact justice in the case when
It comes before them Columbia Re

lina' delivered an address ct Cheraw,
before the Pee Dee Agricultural and
Mechanical Association. lie also lee
turea on the political situation, re-
viewing the history Of the country
and the 'cnAcncy of the Republican
party to ccntral!ze the Government
and foTIpF. 4 {! aespo'ism. lie believed
that this would not be consummaled,
that Gen. Grant might be the nomi:
nee Of the Republican party, but
would meyer be President again. lie
said desperate effort would be made
in $50 to wrcst this State from the
control Of the Democrats, and that
South Y / caroIina should be the last
sta'a in the s|o'utll to to break ,. * The Dem
ocqqratic column, bit should remain
solid ems! inyincible: lie was hope
ful that in 1880 Democratic l,resi-
dent would be elected, and gave con-
vincng reasons Tor the faith that was
in him. lie expressed no preference
for any man as the nominee of the
Democratic party.

where the mother was lying on the

the bodies Of the murdered children.
All live OF The children were lying in

was perfectly saturated with blood.

east. All Of their throats were cut ON

Republican Fraud.

The chairman Of the Republican
town committee of Windham, one
Walter hennett, young lawyer, per-
su9@dea 9 yopRng Irish Democrat into
a room near the. y0ting plaee in
Windham where the Republican, had
established headquarters and we're
purchasing votes, and offered and gave
him five dollars to vote the Republi-
can ticket. The young Democrat
took the money anil Bennett accom-
panied him to the polls TO see that he
voted the ticket; but upon arriving
at the ballot-box the young Democrat
held aloft in his hand the five dollars
and said: "IIerc is five dollsrs which
Bennett has given inc TO vote the
Republican ticket" and then holding
up the Democratic senatorial and rep
resentative ballots he said; "IIerc
are the ballots ! am going 10 cast,"
and he put them in the ballot hoSes.
This same Bennett was detected in
stutling the hallot-IoX in Rcpubli-
can caucus: The teller announced
that party III the hall had put in
more than ono ballot: Thc chair
man denounced the act and said it
was unlawful, and the party gould be
prosecuted. Criss fo;; lis name
arose. when tha teller ssid It was
Bcnnptt, whq is associated with the
chairman in his Jaw oniec: Bennett
then saia that he had dropped double
votes by mistake, but he could not
explain why he did not say so at once
and recall hi ballots. After this, at
the same meeting, Bennett was elect
ed chairman of the Republican town
committee, presumably because he
bad shown this versatility in Repub-
lic9n tactics.---Aan(ord Times.

For Shame.

The Abbeville Press and Banner
says: ''If we are TO take the various
paragraphs in our exchanges in refer
cnce to the necessity of enforcing the
law against adultery as meaning any
thing, it would seem that there is lit
tie virtue in South Carolina. The
traditions Of South Carolina have
ever led US to helieve tLat the citiycns
of the State in ollen timcs were not
cd for their virtue and refinement,
but the newspapers of the present
day would lead us TO a different con-
clusion MS TO the present generation.
For shame It is an ill bird that
fouls its own nest. Let this derama-
tion Of our own people stop" Yes,
let it stop, and the best way to stop
it is to stop the adultery business.

New Jersey, with fifty electoral votes,

A political murder ct the South
is dcplorable affair, but it appears
to us that the assassination of a
young girl by preacher, the poison.
ing Of husband by his wife, the
deliberate marriage Of brother and
sister, and the inccstuons relations
between father and daughter, are ia:
more sugges,ive-far more degrad-
ing to ciyilization-far more indica-
tive of debanched condition of So
c'ety: And yet 7 these crim9s have
been committed in the North during
The past few weeks, and the journals
OF higher civilization do not COM
mcnt upon them as any way peculiar
or out Of the ordinary line.
