President Arthur has nominated WIN.
L. Chandler, Of Maine, to be Secretary of
the Navy, instead of Secretary Hunt,
who has rendered his resignation, and
the Atlanta Constitution takes the politi.
cal measure of the gentleman nominated
and defines the purposes Of the nomina-
ton accurately in the following lam
guage:
"Iu the first place it is given out that
the president is Of the opinion that the
i,alfbreeds should be provided for.
hence little Mr.. Billy Chandler. In re-
ality Chandler is no longer half breed :;
he is not even Blaine man, although he
has been chiefly conspicuous as parti.
san of the Maine statesman. A man
who will bribe others can be bribed him.

turning board, and he can be bought

horizon, like bird ofill omen, ne heard
Guiteau's pistol go off, and reflected as
to how he could turn it TO his individual,
benefit. Just how he has turned it to
account is to be seen in his appointment.
Always stalwart, full Of malice against
the South and Of an Unsuitable hatred of
the Southern people, he has nevertheless
sold out the man to whom ho owes the
most of his prominence. Once solicitor
of the navy department, he has now
collected the department itself, Offering

In the second place, it is supposed that

meaning of course that be will work the
wires for Arthur in the next republican
convention. AS n matter of fict, this
versatile politician will compound with
whoever seems to be strongest, and sell
out Arthur, just rs he has sold out Blaine,
for prospective Office.
He Is just the man Robson needs in
the navy department in the event a new
navy is to be built. The republican
ring would feed and fatten to their
hearts content, and by the time the navy
is completed 1t will have disappeared in
the RobesoDian cavity. The nomination
ought to r, promptly rejected"

The prospect for the formation of an
independent party in South Carolina is
growing beautifully less every day. Our
people fully realize the fact that there
are but two parties in South Carolina,
and that all efforts to divide the Democ.
.acy are in the direct interest Of the Re-
publican party. Any man other than
fanatic is Obliged to see that it i. II polit-
ical impossibiity to defeat majority
party by dividing up the minority. In
South Carolina the negroes have q ma
jority of forty thousand, and nothing but
the most thorough unity Of action on
.he part Of the Democrats has enabled
us to overcome and convert sufficient
number of that majority to enable us 10
hold the State. Now it is proposed by
the Independents, to split our party to
pieces in order to beat the majority.
Those who are sincere in believing that
the Republican party in South Carolina
can be defeated by II divided Democracy
are either political infants or idiots. In
this State the contest is we'll understood
10 be between the native whites and the
colored population, led by unprincipled
adycnturcrs. The negro has shown that
in political matters he is not willing to
go with tine decent portion OF the com
munity, and that in order to control him
politically n man must become n Moses,
a Whi,temore, Chamberlain or q Scott.
1t is therefore only such men as these
that can hope to became political
saint with the negro, and any contem-
plation that he can be rendered subser.
Went to the purposes Of an independent
patty TO be composed of gentlemen, is
simply ridiculous. If gentlemen could
control him rs Independents they could
do 1t rs Democrats. No one can be so
Wind as to believe that the so called In
dependent party is to purify our politics.
1t is intended TO enable some r,cn to get
m office, or to make money out OF
politics, who cannot do so in any other
way. They are allies of the Republican
party willing to take the crumbs which
they expect to be thrown them from the
| table Of their friends.

we are unacquainied with them, but if
the published account Of the organizing
of the jury is correct, that the District
Attorney required twelve white men to
stand aside and none Of the colored ones,
and that after the rejection by the de-
fense of three, reducing the panel TO
twenty seven, that the District Attorney
practically had the privilege of ia,ning
out of this number the twelve to conoli-
tutc the jury. II does seem strange mat
in the opinion Of the District Attorney
the colored members of the panel were
fair, impartia! and competent to try the
case, and that two.thirds Of the Whites
were biased, partial and ought not to be
trusted under the solemn sanction of an
oath to sit upon it. He must have u
most exalted opinion of the virtue,
fairness and competency of the c0lored
race for juryrnen, and very low one for
his own color aud race.
