MORE FIN 1T THE FAIR.

When The South Carolina Democratic Con-
yentiOn adjourned the other day after nOml-
mating a State ticket, local politician Is said
TO have remarked that IF those candidates
were elected, niggcrs would have to go home
mt o'clock and stay there, as they did before
the war" As commentary upon the
character of the ticket this observation seems
To be pretty near the truth. The gentlemen
whom the Democracy of South Carolina desire
TO place in the highest offices of the State be-
long to that wing of the party which has
favored the most heroic treatment of the
"niQger question: and has never allowed
itself to be- swayed by weak scruples when
there has been n chance to put Radicals
whether white or black-wheTe they belong.
The first names on the list are well-known,
far beyond the boundaries of South Carolina.
They are identified with notorious transactions
during the campaign of 1876; aud their
selection for the head of the ticket now is q
formal notification that the South Carolina
Bourbons mean to adhere to their old rifle-club
policy.
johnson f. Hagood, who has been nominated
for Governor, figured in the captured dis
matches relating to the rifle-club conspiracy in
November and December, 1876 which has
been 80 often described under the title of Fun
L" at the Fair.n At the date of this affair the
newly elected Legislature of South Carolina,
Republican on joint ballot, was about to
assemble, and one of Its first duties would be to
canvass tho votes for Governor. Alarmed Mt
the prospect Of losing everything, the Demo-
cratic members seeded and set up Legis-
lature of their own, and Colonel Pelton
telegraphed to his agent Mt Columbia author
ling him to buy enough Senators and negro
representatives to make quorum If that would
"secure several electors" Waldo Hampton,
however, and other local politicians, preferred
more vigorous measures. kilograms were

YESTERDAY At CHICAGO.

Nothing occurred at Chicago yesterday to
shake our conclusion that Grant Is
already beaten. Much happened both in the
proceedings Of the Convention and In the
outside work to strengthen the chances of
Blaine. It may now be said, with more con-
fdence than on any previous day for fort
night. that Mr.. Blaine Is much more likely
to be the candidate than any other
man, named or unnamed. The Grant tactics
are still for delay. They will strain every
nerve to throw the balloting over to Monday,
and their opponents, who are dealing with
them with amazing generosity and good
humor, may possibly tolerate this utterly
needless waste OF time.
The most striking feature in the proceed
ings yesterday morning was the rude lesson
taught the Senatorial bosses. The free winds
of the prairies rufle their dignity
deplorably. These undisciplined delegates
neither shrink from their frowns nor
hesitate to hit back, and with freedom and
stinging force that amaze them. Mr.. COnk-
ling came in again yesterday, as usual. for
the first and the hardest blows. He has been
ill-adyised in being persuaded to put himself
forward on every question little and big, and
when he undertook to crack the party whip over
a veteran sol Iier of the Republican skirmish
line, like the honored Editor of The Wheeling
Imtelligencer, the retort he provoked cut to the
bone. General Logan was equally indiscreet !;
and when Californian advised him not to
mistake John A. Logan for the state of Hi.
nois, the thrust was so direct and its JUS
tice so apparent, that the boss was utterly
unable to recover himself.
A vote was taken yesterday which fairly
measured the strength of the Grant
and anti-Grant forces and exposed the
hopeless weakness Of the third-term scheme.
The question was on adopting the portion of
the report of the Committee on Credentials
which recommended the admission of the
three contestants from Alabama. The
cases of these contestants presented
clearly and squarely the principle Of district
representation, denied by the Grant men and
asserted by their opponents. By vote of
yeas 449, nays 800, the Convention de-
cided to admit the contestants. The Grant
vote showed loss of IL since Thursday,
when it was 319. With an anti-Grant ma
iority of 143 on a plain test question, the
nomination of the ex-President may now be
regarded as impossible.
