lBY TELEGRAPH 10 THE TRIBUSE1
WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-The President sent 70 the
Senate to-day the nomination OF Samuel Lee TO DC
Postmaster at Sumter Court House, :. {.
Mr. Lee is a very Intelligent mulattO, who has
held positions in Washington, and until last
November was Probate Judge of Sumter County
As the ablest and most influential Republican III
his section, the Democrats undertook to buldoze
him, before the November election, and to drive Eim
out of tie scouuty after the campaign was over
because IN his capacity Of United states Commis-
sioncr ne undertook to bring the men who were
Guilty Of fraud TO punishment. His appointment to
the postmastershp Will have a tendency
io restore the confidence Of tho Re
p.blicaus of South Carolina in the
Presidents disposition TO do everything which Is
proper to show bis sympathy for the men who are
prosecuted in that state, and to protect them
when he can legally do so.
one of the most discOuragug circumstances for
the Republicans of that state has been the ap-
parent Influence of Governor Hampton and Senator
Butler in the matter Of appointments, and the
seeming conviction among some of the officials
that IN order TO retain their places, they must con
duct themselves in such a manner as TO satisfy
those two gentlemen. few more appointments
like that OF Mr. Lee will change all tins and make
the Rcpublcans of South Carolina feel very DIT
fc9cutly toward President Hayes than they now do.
Mr.. Lee - in every respect rs well qualified 10
perform tie duties of Postmaster rs any man ' the
town of sumter: hut his presence uel" ia
Federal position will probably bee little irritating
10 the Democratic leaders, who have attempted to
make the ouunUy.tOO hot for Ills residence.
