rccfness OF the statement referred to. The
senator vas explicit Ia bis denial OF having

The Legislature Of Rhode Island has re-
iected TIE bill repeating the law which for
bids the whites and tiacks to intermarry.
That IL gislature 10 overw beImin2ly Repub-
hcau. 1t did right; but If the doctrine
which Rhode Island breaches through her
pressand her congressman be true, the law
ought to be repealed Why should it be
wrong to exclude negroes from every sort
of association with the whites which might
lead to marriages II it is right to forbid
mixed marriages!

pINEy-wooDs AND WIRE GRASS.

Mr.. d. WYATT AIKEN, of South Caro-
lima, who is now enjoying the perquistes
of seat in Congress, to which he has no
more claim than has the King of the Sand
witch Islands, has been making himself
quite notorious recently by writing series
of silly letters for the New York press, the
sum of which is to the effect that the
Democratic party is on its last legs, and
that things will generally go to the bow
vows unless Mr. AIKEN's counsels are
needed in the present exigency of his
party's trouble. The fact is, Mr.. AIKEN is
becoming sOre-headed Bourbon. He
knows that by means of the Grange move
ment he succeeded in eleyating himself
from the caves of South Carolina Obscurity;
and seeing the meme tekeL- on the wall,
which admonishes him that he will be re-
quired to step TO the rear at the next Con-
gressional Convention Of his district, he
rushes headlong into print, and deaes the
South Carolina Bourbons to knock a chip
from off his shoulder, so TO speak. In other
words, Mr.. AIKEN sees that OrHELLOs
occupation as a Bourbon, straight-out, red
hot Democrat is gone, and he is endeavOr-
ing to curry favor with the lately-despised
South Carolina Republicans, hoping that
he will receive their support as an indie
pendent candidate for Congress at the APP
preaching election. But unfortunately for
| Mr.. AIKEN, the South Carolina Repub-
Leans know him and his methods too
well. They remember him as hay
| ing been at convenient distance
when Senator RANDOLPH was murdered
on the Greenville & Columbia railroad in
1871 They remember how he was eyerready
| to harass and annoy all Republican speakers
who yentured to go into the reasonable
portion of South Carolina in which he
| lived. They remember him as the origin
ator of the Grange mOyeme MT in South
| Carolina ostensibly TO develop the agricul-
tural interests Of the State, but in reality &c
unite the whites in a solid, murderous pha.
lanx against the colored Republicans ofSoutl
| Carolina Remembering these, and many
other things against this man AIKEN, low
and debased indeed must be the Soutf
Carolina Republican who would so far lose
his self-respect as to support his re
election under any circumstances, Mr.
AIKEN, like many other South Caroline
Democrats who spring from the humble
National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1880-01-09
