Southern War Claims.

The attack Of Mr.. Bragg'of Wis
c%onsin, a Northern Democrat, upon
Southern War Claims, and Southern
Democrats for countenancing them
WIS exceedingly ill-timed and cverc,
but we are thoroughly convinced
that the whole matter is 4 wicked
farce, and that the hook of claims
ought to be closed forever.
This war claim bill was a Rcpub'i-
can electioneering scheme to gain
recruits to the party from the South,
and there gre few, if any, instan IS
in which its application ought to be
co%untenanced by Southern Demo-
Gratis.
We have a contempt for the'man
born and raised in the South who sets
up a claim before Co ngress for remu
rcraticn for wal damages on the
score Of loyalty, and TO encourage
such applications is TO encourage
crime and perjury.
There may have been some cases
of real loyalty, but they are beyond
the reach of our imagination. AT
any rate the bill on the whole is a
premium for dishonesty, an engine OF
injustice, An impeachment to virtue,
and should be promptly and forever
blotted out from the Statute book $ of
the nation.

This is the latter part of January ~;
farmers crops arc nearly all sold; the
proceeds gone into the.pockets Of the
merchant and lien-h.lder, and the
debts for advances las: year not paid
yet. The most Of orr farm ers that
depend ON cotton for every thing
seem to he getting poorer very year
for they get very little pny for their
labor, and when called on to serve
the County, they get less. l was at
our last Court and saw poor jurymen
eating their cold lunch for dinner
probably the bread had been cooked
a week, anal til ey told me they had to
sleep OH a cold hard floor with only a
blanket or two without any fire, for
the reason that they had no money to
pay for better accommodation. 1 saw
one of :hem paid off with a little
peice Of paper called q juror ticket,
and the only way that he could get
any thing for it was to trade it to n
merchant for goods ut n high price,
and at a big discount. Nowis that
the way to serve a poor jurymen. AS
a writer in the True Southern saws,
What right has the State to call on
her citizens to perform public dlty /:
jurors, under a heavy penalty, and
pay them of in such IAhcrs." A jury
man holds the most res ponsible posi-

A Good Answer.

In the examination last week be-
fore the Teller Committee in Charles
tn, the following spicy c., oquy to- k
pla &c between Senators Cameron and
Randolph:
Mr.. Camcron-I am more than
ever convinced, Senator Randolph,
that you are no lawyer.
MIR. Randolph am not II lawyer,
and for that very reasen. perhaps, L
can the better determine how to mete
out justice between man and man,
without being guided ani hampcrcd

The Tellsrs in Charl eston.

The Teller Investigating Senate
rial Committee has been ut work for
some time in Charleston. They have
got a-good deal that they want in the
shape of testimony to suit the Blaine
party. but, besides this, they have got
also much that they don't want.
In the first few days.tle Republi-
can testimony Of Democratic fraud
fiowed= freely to- the delight of the
Republican Senator'S, butjust, now
the boot is getting on the other leg.
1t is shown by evidence that the
negroes in Williamsburg attempted to
steal a ballot box and murder the
managers; that colorcd preachers
have been prescribed for voting the
Democratic ticket; that cnlorci Dem
ocrats have been beaten and wounded
i'll Richland; and Mr.. Perry the
printer, testifies that he printed
10000. tissue tickets for Mackey.
All of this testimony will go very
far to blur and destroy the symmetry
and effect Of the campaign document
which Blaine is taking SO much
trouble to get up.
+. A. Webster and Sandy Keitt
ventilated themselves.
Webster's story was highly color.
ca and doubtless .~.tisfactory to him
self and the Republicans on the Com.
mlttce. Among other things he said
the democrats made propositions to
drop the cases against the Rcpubli-
cans if the Republicans would drop
theirs against them. We don't know
what Democrats he means, but if he
means the. Democratic leaders made
such. ..propositions, we are Informed
that the facts are exactly the reverse
The Republicans made the PROPOSE :
tons TO the Democrats.
Webster will doubtless retain the
post office.
The desperate Sandy keitt UNI
folded n tale OF 0. .ngeburg horrors.
lie said he was afraid to come back
to O%rangcburg for fear DR.. S%alIey's
sons might kill him. Senator Ran
dolph however suggested that
probably his aversion to come back
to Orangcburg was in consequence of
having obtained money there ind er
ta!se prctenscs.
SANDY does not seem to have been
well trained. W e would advise T..
w. Nj. NJ. to school him more before
he brings him in Court. lie stepped
too far and rendered what might
have been a good thing for his side
ridiculous.
Mr.. james Cannon testified that
he knew Of many colored men who
had voted tissue tickets in Orange

OF colored men who had been severely

The NEGRO WAvE.-A Washington
letter writer says; Congressman
Ryan, of Kansas, was conversed will
to day by your correspondent in re
gard to the negro exodus to that State
He says the magnitude of the move
ment has been exaggerated. Up tc
the present time only about 4 900 bav,
arrived in Kansas. The most of them
have been provided with work, but the
work is now all taken up and there i:
no room for any more. In proc
thereof he says that at Topeka the
authorities have encamped some 300
as it was impossible to supply them
with anything to do. And yet they
still come out in large numbers in alb.
ject poverty, in rags and filth, without
money and without friends. He thinks
the matter is very serious one as he
does not see what can possibly be
done with them. Ii they had sufficient
means, he says, to take up government
land and buy cart and erect shanty,
then they could possibly make it 60,
but coming with nothing they cannot
expect hereafter to be provided for.
He advises them to hold back and not
come North till they have little
money. Arrangements are already
being made to turn the tide back TO
the South.

THE RADICAL YELL FOR
HELP IN MAINE.


Political matters away down in the
State of Maine have an ominous look
for the Radicals. They had so long
ridden that State and considered it
safe in the hands Of Blaine, who used
his constituency as counters in his
game of ambition that no thought was
given that the Radical craft could ever
be driven from its moorings. But Il
revolt came at last, and among the
deck hands of the ship, who mutinied,
set up craft of their own, installed
new commanders, and finally ran down
the old Radical hulk, leaving il wreck
on a lee shore. This year those rebel
lious Greenbackers are bent on more
mischief and with the aid Of the Dem
ocrats who have separate and distinct
nominations, promise TO give worst
beating TO the Radicals than last year.
And Blaine, and ''little bub" Hale and
the rest OF their like note the approach.
ing storm, and are yelling desperately
for help, like drowning Mariners
Blaine even accepts the services of
Sherman, rival for the Presidential
nomination, as the former fully under
stands that if Maine goes as it did last
year his "goose is cooked" Thereaf-
ter he would be considered dead cock
in the pit so tar as Presidential aspi-
rants are concerned. And as TO "Ittle
bub" Hale, why old Zack Chandler
and all his money bags couldn't save
him from sinking into political obliv.

The FACTS IN THE CAsE.-The Rad.
icals have set up great howl because
a saucy, disobedient Radical official in
the Senate has been removed. The
Washington correspondent OF the Bal.
timore Gazette states the case in this
way "The soldier Wilson, who was
discharged few days ago by Sergeant
alarms Bright, of the Senate, for in
subordinatioD, is fast becoming hero
in the Republican camp. He has been
wasting lots Of his time and money in
writing letters to prominent Repnbli-
cans seeking toarouso their sympathies
in his case, and even soliciting that he
be put upon the stump in Ohio and
Maine 80 as to tell his tale of woe.
Hummell, Of the Congressional Repub-
lican Committee, thinks well of the
idea, and is anxious that Foster takes
him under charge in Ohio and Blaine
in Maine, but up to the present time
these gentlemen seem to prefer TO pay
their money to greater and more brill.
liant lights. The cause of Wilson's 70.
moval was the best in the world, and
even if his limbs were shattered by Il
Confederate shell, il is no excuse ior
him to do duty for the government q
few hours day when bis pay was
81, 900 per annum. Wilson had been
in the Senate employ for nearly ten
years, and had begun To think that the
Senate could not get along without
him, 80 he got surly and only went on
duty when 1t pleased him, and at last
left his place entirely and went home,
hence his discharge. SO far as II can
be ascertained, the Senators oil endorse
the action Of Mr. Bright, except the
howlcrs like Blaine and Conk.

Farmers, Profits.

The crop reports continue to show that
we shall have an uncommonly large har-
vest of breadstuffs enough to guarantee
abundant supplies at not exorbitant prices
to England and Germany, where the crops
are short. 1t is curious that Texas reports
poorer corp crop than any other State in
the Union but in the. other trans-Missis-
sippi States this crop promises extraordi-
nary results.
In some Of the cotton States corn is said
to be doing poorly, which will increase this
year the demand upon the Northwest from
these States, which have for some years
largely and rapidly enlarged the area
planted in food stuffs, greatly to the ad-
vantage Of their people of both races
On the whole the season is now so far adj
vanced that we may reckon securely on un-
commonly good crops which will put
very large amount of money into the pockets
of our farmers. We trust they will know how
to take care of it, and we advise them and
all other Industrious people TO beware of
speculation. II Is plain to all observing
men that we are about to witness the be-
ginning Of q new fever OF mining specula-
