PoLITIcAL "LIBERTY" IN South CAROLINA.
1t appears from information received from
South Carolina that the democrats do not
propose to allow republicans to belong to Sc
cret societies. There Is a society of cOored
people there. organized for benevolent pur-
poses, called the ''Good Samaritans.' The

makes the following threat: ave take
this occasion to urge our colorcd friends in
this county not to organize or sustain secret
political society, for it will certainly result in
no good for those who participate in it. Our
people are on the alert for Just such schemes.
and they will not only come to naught, but
those who seek to establish them will be re-

to foment discord between the races and then

GENERAL EWING DisnotRAGED
Ten. Ewing, Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor of Ohio, arrived here tonight. He
gives out to his confidential friends that his
Eastern trip, which was for the purpose of
raising money for the campaign, was unsuc-
cessful; that the Eastern hard money demo.
Gratis pleaded difference of opinion on the
financial policy as an excuse for not contrib
uting to democratic success Indeed East
ern democratic capitalists fatty said that they
would not contribute to the success of the
ONO elections. To add to Ewing's depres-
sion he thinks that he has discovered an in
trigne between Senator Thurman, Represen-

State Committee, 10 trade votes for Cover

Secretary Sherman's Speech.

We occupy a large part of our space
this morning with the publication OF the
very able and statesmaulike speech ofSec-
rotary Sherman, delivered at Portland.
last evening. Touching lightly but in
earnest language upon the Southern ques-
ton at the commencement of his speech,
Mr.. Sherman soon passes to the discus
sion of the financial questions at issue in
this campaign First, he briefly describes
the condition of the country when the fl
nancia panic of 1873 burst upon us. Then
he speaks of the resumption act, OF the OPP
position which it encountered, the predic-
tons that it would prove failure, and of
the success which attended the effort to
resume. Congress did not aid this effort,
but, on the contrary, threw impediments
in the way by an increase of United States
notes, and an increase of appropriations
and a decrease OF the revenues. But the
confidence engendered in the public mind
bv resumption and the waking up of our
industries to activity overcame all obsta-
cleS
The results of resumption have been
marvellous Besides enabling the Secre-
tary to refund the greater part OF the pub
lie debt ut / per cent, saving in interest
alone nearly nine million dollars since the
first of January last resumption has
caused the greenbacks TO be more desira
bic in most money transactions than gold.
SO that but little gold is demanded
at the treasury for the redemption
of government notes, the rate of interest
has been reduced all over the country in
private business matters, and revival of
business has begun which promises to
raise the country in prosperity beyond
anything before experienced.
One of the best parts of the speech Is
that in which Mr.. Sherman deals with the
opponents of resumption and answers
their objections with facts. figures and
arguments that will he conclusive to any
candid mind.
We do not see how any man can read
this speech and continue follower of
oreenbackism. There seems to be no
phase of the financial question untouched,
no ground left for the inhationist to stand
upon.
Let those who have any doubt about the
benefits of resumption or the wisdom of
the policy of the republican party in rela-
ton to the finances attend Mr.. Sherman
meetings and hear Tor themselves. If they
are unable to do that let them obtain a
copy of his speech and study it carefully,
for il is the work of statesman and pa
triot, who speaks of what he knows thor
oughly and well.

The DcmO-Greenback Agreement.

To the Editor of the .jourHai;
Ii republican grcenbackers had doubted
before, of the situation in Maine, il seems to
me their eyes must be opened by the card of
some 100 old line democrats in this morning
Argus, "Ld those rhO think 0i,ke act togefh-
er.' That is the thing to decide the election
in this State for Corp'l Davis sure, and certain.
Does the editor of the Argus, and his pub
lished long list of old Bourbons, for one mo-
ment presume to believe. that the thirteen or
fourteen thousand republicans who last year
voted the greenback ticket, ever thought as
they do, on the great national questions now
before the people of this country!
Impossible. The writer hereof has repeat
eddy heard prominent republicans who voted
for Smith last year declare emphaticaly that
sooner than ever to vote to aid democracy
directly or indirectly. they would vote
for Davis and the whole republican ticket
How can they longer hesitate after the card
above referred to!
Every republican journal of Maine should
re-pubish that card adding the following
amendment:
at is also further agreed by the cunning
zones behind the curtain that in considera-
''tion of their anal gamation, that if we cap
''ture the legislature Smith shall be made
Governor, Eben F. Pilsbury next year be
''electcd to the United States Senate, and the
electoral vote of Maine shall be given to
'the national democratic candidate" This
have from those who claim to know whereof
they affirm. neutrality-suspicious. of
last year are you ready to be delivered ac-
cording to the bargain made and provided?
Will the Argus deny that the above arrange
ment is agreed upon? REPUBLICAN.

Heirs tn Eighty MiiliOn.
[Gritiln (Ga.) News.


1t was gravely stated a few weeks ago
in the Covington papers that citizen of
Newton County had fallen heir to $780,
000,000 by the demise of a kinsman in
England. 1t now transpircs that two
families in this city are heirs of the de-
ceased millionaire, who died childless,
and, as far as known, intestatc. The Grif-
fin heirs have engaged the legal services
of prominent law firm in this city, who
are in correspondence with Hon. Judah
P. Benjamin in reference to the matter.
Our friends are certain of getting the
English ducats, and have al
ready assumed the airs of the bondhold-
ers, and are looking around for suitable
investments. In the most friendly man
l..er we suggest to these buoyant heirs to
keen cool. While we have little doubt
that the lTealth is lying over in England
waiting their claim, still our pSS:n exneri-
ence with several pf:ncely fortunes we
have received from England in the same
way reminds US to remark that it Is so,ne-
times weeks and monthsbefore Ameri-
can heirs come into its possession. John
Bull has such an aversion to seeing Brit
ish coin carted away by Yankees that he
rigidly scrutinizes their claims. We hope
to see a part of that $60,0OO,OOO in Grit
fin yet.

What the valedictory said: Kind teach
ers, ever shall we look back to the happy
days when, under your patient and low
ing pilotage, we climbed the hill of
knowledge; ever shall we hold the recol-
lection of your self-sacrificing devotion
among our holiest remembrances. And
classmates, though the links are at last
broken that have so long united us in
their tender chain, yet are we still per-
mitted in memory's forge to re-weld the
scattered fragments, and live once again
in fancy the happy existence that has
been ours, and which we prize more than
ever now that it can be lived in reality
no more.
What the Valedictorian Thought:
Thank the Lord, shall soon see the last
of old Smith! He never was fit for a
teacher, any way, the cross old bear!
And then he shows partiality SO! never
could see what he finds in Sal Stebbings
so attractive. No matter what she does,
he's good as pie to her; guess Pd have
to take it if l should come to school with
lessons no better than hers. And Miss
Jones! H'm! the old maid! She's Just
hateful. And Miss Brown, too! What
dowdy she is! No wonder nobody III
have her. Thank Heaven! Pm free of
them all now! l don't believe I'd speak
to one of them if should meet them on
the street. Let's see--I must cut that
Perriwinkle girl right away. l don't
want to be logged round by her any
longer, and. what's more. I won't. shall
have to keep on good terms with Steve
Showers sister, though do hate her so; !;
for Steve's got jolly team, and he al
ways dresses nobby, and all the girls
envy me and Steve when we go riding
long. And Pm going to give Sal Steb-
bings bit of my mind, and then good
bye to her, the mink! Well, I'm glad
it's all over; | never want to think of
school again, or see school book. What
life | have led, to be sure! But | shall
60 into society now, thank fortune, where
l belong!
