AFTER \ RAILROAD PREsIDENT-On
Monday night, at 2 o'clock, a party of
unknown persons went to tho residence of
President w. II. Hardin, of tho Cheraw
and Chester Railroad, and cursing foar-
fully. called for him to como out. Mr..
Hardin was absent from home. Being
apprlsed of tho fact the marauders vented
themselves of a volley of horrid oaths,
saying they had come to kill him, and
although they had missed him, thcy
would yet havo their revenge. They
rode into the yard and otherwise
committed malicious trespass on tho
premises. Falling In their diabolical
purposes, they dispatched tho yard

During the past week severe financial
reyerses have befallen prominent capi.
talists in Charleston. The banking
house Of James Adger & Co., has failed
with liabilities reaching two million dol.
lars, and by It's failure has involved the
firm of J. e. Adger G. CO., dealers in
hardware, &C., to such an extent as to
necessitate suspension Of their business,
besides one or two smaller business
houses. These disasters have produced
a shock to the business of Charleston
not equalled by anything there since the
panic of 1873. The bouses in7olyed in
these troubles are oil composed of excel
lent gentlemen, whose reYerses will be
everywhere regretted, not only on &C.
count of the injury to business which
will result from it, but also on account
OF the losses which the individual mem.
bers of the several firms have sustain
ed.

The Chicago Inter. Ocean replies to the
remark of Hon. G. D. Tillman, Of Edge
field, that the Democratic pa,ty will
never have free swing for showing it's
willingness and ability to reform this
government until 1t secures Democrat c
president, by saying that /. :ree swing is
what Col. Tillman and his friends have
deserved for maly years. This is, how.
ever, not to be wondered at as coming
from the inter Ocean, for q man who
really deserves hanging always points
out some other person that he would like
to make a substitute for himself.

The Penitentiary Directors h..gc been
considering the treatment of convicts on
the Greenwood and Augusta Railroad, in
consequence OF the startling fact that
about one hundred out of two hundred
and twenty-five have died during the last
yeet. This is an appalling death rate,
aud demands rigid investigation at the
hands of the authorities who have the
matter in charge. Tho State cannot
afford to have the imputation OF cruelty
to prisoners placed upon her. When
men commit crime we believe they ought
to be punished, and are not at all senti.
mental upon the subject as to the man
ner in which it should be inflicted.
There is, however, great difference be.
tween pnnishing q criminal and treating
one cruelty. We have always a5vsn in
favsT of working convicts on railroads
aud other public improvements, but we
cannot endorse the employment of hu-
iuitn beings in any enterprise which en-
sures such frigh.fnl death rate. It ia,
however, due to the authorities of the
Greenwood & Augusta Road that they
should be heard before they arc con.
demnsd for the treatment of the conyicts
they have been working. It may be that
there arc exaggerated reports in circula.
tion, or that the culpability rests else
where than on their shoulders. Be this,
however, as It may, the subject demands
q full and fair investigation, with view
of putting the public scandal TO rest and
of correcting the inhumanity that is
charged, if'it is found to exist, no matter
whenceit may emanate.

CrNcINNATI. September 13, is

'SANN@NiA, SOplcu'i)cT 1913.
A correspondent had short talk with
the PRESIDENT to day on the political future,
and first nskcu i'll regard to the occupancy
OF the Presidential seat, and particularly of
Grants prospects.
Gen. Grant will soon be back again in
this country. Do you think, Mr.. President
he will be n candidate for the Presidency
for the third tcrm?"
Il don't think he Is seeking q renomina-
ton or desires it. Gen. Grant has enjoyed
the highest honors the country could be-
stow on one of her citizens, and think he
Is not desirous of having them repeated.
war produced. His management of the
armies under his control closed the war of
the rebellion. After that he was made
General of the Army, and then twice cleo
ted to the Presidential chair. Since his re-
t,rement from the Presidential Office he has
travelled abroad extensively, and eyery-
where he has received attentions of 10
most gratifying kind, such, in fact, T. 10
American citizen ever received in foreign
countries before. All this must be extreme
ly, pleasing to Gen. Grant, and 1 doubt
whether he would be willing to enter into
another contest for office. / have no irfor-
nation from him, but believe that he
would much prefer to take some repose,
keeping out Of politics for the present."
TILDEN's CHANCES.
10 you THINK Iilden Will be the nc;:;-
cratic nominee next year?'
Everything points that way now. And
yet Air. Tilden has many enemies in his
own party. think he would be the easiest
man beaten the Democrats could nominate.
The attitude of Tammany towards him i'm
the New York Convention shows that he is
not able to keep his party in line. There is.
a suspicion of trickery hanging about Til
den among those who have been his follow
ers. Look at Hewitt, who managed his
campaign three years ago. and David Dud,
ley Field, who went to Congress for tho
purpose of taking charge of his claims
both arc now opposed to him. That is the
way II. seems to SO with him. His most
valuable allies in politics desert him."
DO you regard Kim as man of ability 2"
I do, undoubtedly. think TINT there
are few men who are his equals in organ
izing and conducting campaign"
Whom do you regard Us the best man
the Democrats could put forward p?
=! think Senator George T.. ;cndleton Is
their most available man and their .,trong-
est. He has been before the people as ma
tional character q long time. His abilities
are of the first order, and he has fewer enc
ME mics than any public man in tho party.
thurman is man of great ability, but he
has enemies right here at his own home.
On the whole, think PendletOn the best
man the Democrats could nominate"

An Evolutionary Match.

WASHINGTON, April ii, 1879.
TO The Editor of the National Republican,:
SIR: happened to see in your paper this
morning an advertisement by party who
proposes grand reading match. Now, for
one, / heartily indorse the proposition, and
have no doubt that it would be big thing"
in the way of novelty. There are number of
fine clocutionists in Washington, both known
and unknown TO the public, and competition
in elocutonary efforts for prize would prove
a rich treat for our citizens, and no doubt the
proposition will meet general approval; but
the matter should be so arranged that each
reader would be required to give the same
pieces and before competent and disinterestod
judges ] would like to witness a contest of
that kind 1t would be a new thing, and while
novel, yet highly instructive. We are being
treated to leg matches, wrestling Matches and
all sorts of ridiculous and beastly exhibitions
in the way of immoral and unhealthful shows
now give us something high-toned, useful, and
intellectual. We need change, and for one ]
vote for an Evolutionary match.
