WHY WHEELING MANUFACTUR-
Frs ARE SO CONFIDENT.

The complete and crushing repudia-
ton oil the Republican tariff bugaboo,
bv the substantial business men and
leading manufacturers Of this city, which
We published in the REGISTER yes,Cr lay,
ought to be sufficient to settle that issue,
and excuse us from any further refer
enre 70 the subject q; a tariff daring this
campaign.
But there may he some who raise the
inquiry, "Why are these men, who ore
evidently intelligent and sagaclous husl-
ness men, and, unqucstionably, have
lar.e interests at stake. so confident in
the belief that the Democratic party will
protect their interests, and with their
interests, those OF al whose interests are
identified with their own "Why do
they speak so confidently AMI vote SO
cheerfully with the Democratic purity
and Tor the candidate lrr the PreSi'
dancy??"
W.. might answer because the prs
cnt Congress. which has been Demo
cratic for the past ionr years, mas prov
en- worthy of their conf ience.
But this il not all. |; is to lie sup
posed that these intelligent iar-sccing
business men, have looked farther than
that. They have looked into the past
record OF the Democratic party Oh the
tariff question. And what does that
show?
We happen to have at hanl docu.
ment which gives the exact facts and
figures showing the dealings al the
Democratic party with the taiif during
the eight years just prior 10 the war,
when its power WAS absolute in all
branches OF the Government. During
that period more than seytn-eighths
oi the entire revenue raised to meet the
expenses Of the Government was de-
rived from tariff duties imposed Ivy a
Democratic Congress and collected by a
Democratic President. Here is q state
men, Of the amount OF duties thus lev
ied by Democrats on foreign goods, dur

"rHE SOUTHERN DEMOCRATIC
METHOD"


METHOD"
The Fourteenth street organ has been
looking for something from the Charles
ton, S. C. Ns,cs and Courier to indicate
"The Southern Democratic Method.
In its zeal to furnish something from
the Nous and Courier, it took from Re-
publican Chicago paper something
which it thought ought to have been in
the Nsrs and Courier, whether it was or
not, and charged the latter with it, alice
samee.
Now, we have discovered something
in the Ncws and Courier which illustrates
the Southern Democratic Method,
which we are afraid the editor OF the H.
tcligcacer will overlook. 1t is not old
and stale. 1t does not relate back to
1876 or some other uncertain period.
Neither does it come second hand, bat
is fresh from the issue OF the NcWs and
Coui,r of the DIST OF October 1850.
1t so well illustrates the democratic
method" il the South that the L't'h-
g,ncer, which has been illustrating this
method lately from a Chicago stand
point, will be eager to obtain this add.
tional illustration from reliable source.
The extract in question is entitled "Our
Colored Troops" aud gives letter
written by the colored captain OF the
First Regiment ri National Guards OF
south Carolina, which explains itself:
The following letter from the Adiu-
,ant OF the First Regiment OF National
Guards oi South Carolina, enc OF the
best c0lored military organizations IN
the United States, is an indlsputahle
evidence OF the fairness and Consldera-
ton with which the cOlored people OF
South Carolina hav, been treated by the

HOLDING CoURTs UNDIR THE
CONSTITUTION OF 1879.

weappreciate the interest OF our friend
WV. E. ARNOLD, ESQ, to reconcile the
provisions OF the Constitutional amend
nent Just adopted, with what might
reasonably be expected the amendment
should have provided, but which is un'
fortunately very obscure or entirely
lacking in its provisions.
In the letter from Mr.. ARNOLD, which
We print in another column, he Is anx'
ious to find authority for continuing the
old Judges and the old terms OF court
in the regular discharge OF their iunc-
tons until the new dispensation is in
augurated.
But We think Mr.. A. will discover,
upon a moments reflection, that the
very authority upon which he relies for
his position, viz: The 10th Sec. OF the 9Th
Art. of the Constitution Of 1872, has
already been superseded by the adop.
ton in its stead OF the Tenth Section OF
the Eighth Article OF the Amendment OF
1880, which goes into effect from and
after the date OF ratification at the polls,
toewit: on the 18th OF October. That
is to say, the latter is now the law, and
has superseded the entire Eighth Arti-
Gle OF 1872.
The amendment being adopted, and
being the supreme and only law that
must now govern, establishes certain
circuits different from the circuits estab-
lished by the Constitution OF 1872. The
latter are abolished by implication, and
the new ones are now the only circuits.
Even though the Judges OF the old
circuits may be continued in Office in the
new, there are no established schedules
OF courts provided in the new circuits.
The Judges have no power to arrange
such schedules; that is the province oil
the Legislature. The Judges may call
special terms, which would answer every
purpose, but to meet ami hold courts IN
the new circuits under the old schedules.
seems marifestly irregular, and We very
much question whether a judgment or
decree rendered at such term would
"hold water"

THE ~RHLIABLn ORGAN" vINDI.
CATNDl

After We had exposed the Intelligen.
GERS attempt to palm of some political
clap-trsp which it credited to the
Charleston, s. c., Nsrs ond Courier, and
which Ii boldly alleged had been IRE
peated day after day" in that paper, but
which was, as we well knew, taken from
a Western paper and had never been
seen in the Charleston Ne,rs by the
Intelligencsr or anybody else, the latter
paper sends an appeal to the editor oil
the Chicago Tribune to come to its re-
lief and swear it out Of its predicament.
This, OF course, is an acknowledgment
on the part Of the Fourteenth street re
liable oryan," that it did not get the
aforesaid clap-trap where it pretended
to get it, and that it deliberately de-
signed to deceive and impose upon the
public, when it paraded in its issue oil
Wednesday, a lot Of stuff which it pre-
tended to have obtained from the
Cha, lesion Neus and Courier.
IL it had taken it from the Charleston
Ns,rs and Courier at so late date as last
Wednesday, it would have had the
copy of the paper on hand to verify the
quotation, or we would have found it in
our file OF the paper.
But the reliable organ" goes back on
itself, and makes no allegation Of that
kind. 1t convicts itself by sending OIL
TO Chicago to ask another Radical "re-
liable organ" to say that it, also, had
imposed upon the public by publishing
the same stuff; as though when one
Radical organ had manufactured lie
out of the whole cloth, another organ
would be justified in taking it up, stand
ing by it, and proclaiming to the world
that it is the solemn truth.
But the Chicago organ only has kind
of recollection that about four or five
years ago, viz, to-wit, as follows: Some
time in the year 1876, or Whereabouts, in
that neighborhood, or about that period,
or in some previous or subsequent per-
iod, perhaps during the CHAMBERLAIN'
HAMprox campaign for Governor. or
some other campaign, or at some time
about or near a political campaign, in
South Carolina, the Tribune man has
some kind OF an impression or recollec
ton, that he had seen, or somebody else
had seen, or there was paper IN the
Tribune office. which he thinks was the
Charleston Mus and Courier, or some
other paper, but which he canno,
now find, and does not have q copy al
hand and does not know anybody tina!
has one ar that has even seen the copy
in question, and lie has also an indis
tinct recollection that this paper, oI
some Other, contained matter of the
kiad, or something approaching the
character OF that which the Et,VgGncr'
pretended to get from the Charleston
.NgIrs and COuTiS-
The IntcHgrncr is thereupon vindica-
ted. That is about as full a rindication
as it ever succeeds in making for itself.
Anything that is lacking will be made
up by its reputation as 4, Liable or
yan." And We content Ourself with
waiting for the next roorback'

THE SIXTH JUDICIAL CIR
CUT.
Judge X. f. Fleming Elected
After All.

Correspondence OF the Register.
GLENvILLE, October -.
In the new Sixth Judicial Circuit, r.
F. Fleming, for Judge, has 500 majority
in Gilmer, Calhoun and Clay counties,
and in Roane county +. S. Brown has,
for Judge, 3l5 majority. The mistake
OF the court house commissioners OF
jackson county consisted in giving
Fleming 20 majority in that county,
whereas the true vote gave Brown 80
majority; 80 that after ALL Fleming is
elected by p majority OF the votes cast
in the district. This, it is believed, can
be relied on. W.

Excuse me for again appearing in your
paper to explain what seems plain to
me, 80 much OF the 10th section Of
the new Eighth article Of the Constitu-
ton as reads: "The Judges of the Cir.
cut Courts now in Office, when this ar
ticle takes effect, shall remain therein
until the expiration Of the term for
which they have been elected in the
Circuits in which they may respectively
reside"
The 10th section OF the eighth articel
OF the Constitution of 1872, and the last
sentence thereof, reads: "During his
(judges) continuance in Office, he shall
reside in the circuit Of which he is
Judge" Now what Circuit Courts are
meant BY the new amendment? The
answer must be. the Circuit Courts as
they existed and now exist Ito carry out

These figures tell their own story.
They give the lie to the charge that the
Democracy would establish free trade
had it the opportunity. Why, during
that time OF Democratic absolute rule a
larger proportion of the total net ordi-
nary expenses of Government was rails
ed by tariff than under Republican rule

Whereas, This country WAS settled 10y Christian
