"The army should have nothing
to do with the Inauguration of pres
idents, says General Hancock In
his admirable letter of 1876 to GEN
eral Sherman. "The people elect
the president. Congress declares in
joint session who he Is. We, of
the army, have nothing TO do but
obey his mandates, and we are pro-
tected i'm 50 doing only so far us they
may be lawful. Cur system does
not provide that one president shall
elect another"
1t has been diSparagingly asserted
that Hancock is a good soldier, but
unfamiliar with the methods and
practices of civil government but
it may be safely said that these
words, uttered in the darkest hour
of the threatening uncertainty of
1876, embOdy clearer and more
accurate knowledge of the true way
through that crisis than all the re
publican statesmen of the land ex-
hibited. No one can forget the
quarter from which came the perils
that threatened us in the dispute
four years ago. The republicans
had resolved to inaugurate their
This they could not

| We spoke last week of despica
bic misrepresentation of Gen. Wade
Hampton which originated in The
New York Tribune, and assembled
from that swamp of slander, the
Tribune, to the pages of the Inter.
national Review. We are conscious
that our feeble protest did not do
justice to the subject, and now print
Senator Bayard's eloquent denunci-
alton OF the same Islander given in a
speech delivered by him at Colum-
bia, South Carolina:
l to-day arraign the republican
organization as the great obstructor
of American prosperity. / say that
they are indulging their animosity
at the cost of the personal welfare of
every individual OF the land. T
will not say every individual, per-
haps, because j know that in the
rear of every army there are camp
followers and carrion crows that
feed on the public distresses and
make merry over the suffering of
mankind, but they are not worthy
to be spoken of. They are excep-
tions TO humanity that will be borne
down by the tide and flood OF exc
Grafton. But speak to those who
love their homes and children and
love their fellow-men, and l ask
how can such men support such a
party? So that if there was no
other fault to find with this party
than that they do their best to put
their fellOw-cOuntrymen apart, that
alone would be reason enough for
me to decline to favor it, and that
is the question, too, all over this
land of ours. Go where you please
and you will find sectional hatred
and jealousy. Why, who is safe
from it? What will they not do to
invoke it? If there be on the face
of this green earth man who would |
not tell lie to serve himself or
friend, that man is Wade Hampton. |
(CheerS.) Wade Hampton is not a |
man to hide his thoughts or who |
fears to look a man in the face and |
tell him what he thinks. You know |
him. He has been since he went to /
the senate a free, candid. outspoken
representative of his
people and of the constitution. He /
has had nothing to hide. There
was no thought in his heart that
would not bear Gods sunlight, and
yet when he made a speech the
other day in Virginia and was talk
ing with those people whom he had
fought for and whom he loved, he
advised them to stand upon their
public faith and not to tamper with
their public reputation, and he said
that if Lee and Jackson were here
would you not do as they would do
IN such case as this? And what
lid these partisan spirits do with
MS speech ? They declared that the
nan whose honor is as unsullied as
he sun intended to reinvoke the
spirit of military resistance to the
government, and they knew that
vas a lie.

A Club of 3O6 Members in New
York City, with branches
In Five Districts.
New York World.

A meeting of the republican Han
cock,English campaign club was
held last evening at the headquart-
ers, parlor G, Westminster Hotel,
and was well attended. The club
was permanently organized Aug.
"a, with DIR. George III. Mitchell
president, and tWenty-four vice
presidents G. A. Dumoutin, record
ing secretary; Seaman Jones, Jr.,
financial secretary; G. w. Da Costa,
corresponding SaerntarSr, and 7 M
HeathertOn, treasurer. Since its
organization the club has formed
district associations in the first, sec
ond, third, fifth and thirteenth as
sembly districts, with total mem
bership of 306. The organization
had its origin in a chance remark
made by its present chairman, DR..
g. III. Mitchell, who, on answering
a question as to his reasons for sup
porting Hancock, was told that
there were many more republicans
like him, and that he ought to try
and unite them in one solid organi-
zation. "On that hint / spake,"
said DIR. Mitchell, .'at first only
while engaged in my ordinary pro-
fessional or business duties, but
was astounded to find how many
republicans entertained the same
feelings did and would have voted
for Hancock without saying a word,
but now they are all determined to
show their hand"
Primarily the members of the or
ganization are actuated bya convic-
tion that it is their duty as republi-
cans to disavow an act of gross in
Justice committed by the republican
party in 1876, and, secondly, many,
if not all, think Garfield is not a
man to be president. Up to last
evening the club had held none but
club meetings at its headquarters,
and in Difference to the wishes of
some Of the members has not sought
publicity; but the intention now is
to push forward the movement with
vigor and hold weekly meetings.
AT the same time the members will,
by direct personal appeal, seek to
recruit their ranks from the Waver-
ing and uncertain, and also keep
open their executive headquarters
daily during the evening, when
some of the officers and members of
the club will be present to receive
and answer all seekers after inform
alton. The meeting last evening
was called TO order by the president,
DIR. Mitchell, who introduced Col.
Frederick A. Conkling, who said
that after the suppression of slavery
and the amendments to the eonsti-
tuition it seemed almost as if the
mission of the republican party had,
if not passed away, been lost sight
of. He had made close and persist
ent inquiries, but had failed to find
a single democrat who had avowed
his intention of voting for Garfield,
yet almost without an effort a roll
of more than 300 staunch republi-
cans, who not only intended to vote
for Hancock, but TO induce others to
do the same, had been made up.

THE TRUTH ABOUT COLORED
VOTERS IN ALABAMA.

1t is convenient assumption OF
the republicans that the colored vO-
ter is a republican by his irreversi-
bic constitution, and that if ever he
votes otherwise he must be bull
dozed, bribed or drunk. Now how
does that theory accord with the
following editorial from demo-
cratic paper, edited by a colored
democrat for a list of colored demo-
cratic subscribers. Will it be con-
tended that that colored editor is
bull-dozed into publishing his pa
per, and that his subscribers are
bulI-dozed into buying and reading
it? If not (and it certainly does
not seem probable) then the sup
posed impossibility of spontaneous
democracy growing up among the
Alabama negroes will have to be
assumed as a demonstrated fact,
however inconsistent it may be
with the republican assumption
above spoken of.

montgomery ADVANCE
The republican press of the north
has, since the recent state election
in Alabama, been bowling about
the large majority given to the dem
ocratic ticket. If the facts were
properly understood we honestly
think that no intelligent man could
be astonished at the result of the
election.
In this state there is no republi-
can party. 1t is true the party, So
called, held convention and Sc
lected delegates to the national re-
publican convention but it is no
torious fact that the "sinewsof war;"
or, in common parlance, the cash,
was furnished by parties friendly
to the aspirants for the republican
nomination. The success of the
convention in this state was due to
the large amounts of money SO free
ly expended, and not to any special
love for the great ~ principles OF
Republicanism Two years ago an
attempt was made to hold a Re-
publican State convention and NOM
mate ticket, but there being no
financial stimulus, the convention
was a dead failure and only four
counties were represented.
In the recent State contest the
Greenbaekers and Independents
fused and in a conference COM
posed of thirty self-appointed dele
gates nominated a ticket. There
was no party organization in nine
tenths of the counties, and the tick
ct was openly repudiated by hum
dreds of Independents and Repub-
Iicans throughout the state. The
Independents in nearly all the coun-
ties united with their opponents
the regular Democrats-in support
ing the straight-out Democratic
State ticket, and hence that ticket
received the large vote thus brought
out.
In only two counties were there
Republican tickets nominated. The
party was openly divided in Lown-
des county, and hundreds of colored
men rallied to the support Of the
Democratic ticket-state and cOun-
ty. Here in Montgomery county,
the party was not divided, but NOM
mated number of unpopular men
for office, who had heretofore acted
with the Democratic party. The
colored men came forward and
gave the whole concern the shake
And we here repeat, what we
said in a former issue of the Adj
vance, the cry of fraud, fraud, is
only campaign trick of the Re-
publican journals to divert public
attention from the many misdeeds
of their own party.
We colored men of Alabama aid
ed the Democracy in rolling up this
majority, and it should be borne in
mind that we are perfectly satisfied
down here. Howl on, We guardians
of Republican truth (?)-the colored
men of this State have concluded
TO hereafter taiyik and act for them
selves, so-called leaders to the con-
trary, Notwithstanding.
