AN ADDRESS OF AGITATION.

The Voters Of South Carolina are Called
Upon to Rise In Their Might and Prevent
the Foo and Stranger From Again Ru1-
Ing the State-A Stirring Appeal to DEM
ocrats.
COLUMBIA, 8. c., March 30.--The state
Democratic executive committee, which has
been considering since yesterday political
matters generally, and election prosecutions
particularly, has sent an address to the Demo-
cratic party of South Carolina. The address
declares that, despite the peace and quiet that
have prevailed, despite the existence OF a state
government ready to punish disorder, repress
crime and protect its citizens, the federal Offic-
falls have seen ct to drag cur people from their
homes and are against them not only before
the federal courts, but before the
bar of public opinion. The recent let
ter OF Attorney General Brewster to
Sanders is an Indictment of the Democratic
party of South Carolina. To this indiclmen
the Democratic party must answer. Its chosen
representatives, through whose persons it is
sought to perpetrate this outrage, must be
defended with all the force and all the energy
Is too plain to be misunderstood. When The
hand of the assassin struck down the presiden,
OF the United States, it dealt a blow under
which the people OF the south are yet stagger.
ing. The change of policy towards the south,
as Enthusiastically indicated within the last few
weeks, should warn all lovers of good govern.
ment to be vigilant and active.
Tee decree has gone forth, 1.-The whites OF
South Carolina must avow the principles Of
the Republican party Or be declared crimi
nals." The object of those in authority ii
not to punish for alleged crimes In the past
but to make adherence to the principles Of
the Democratic party impossible in the future
The time for this action has been fifty chosen
On the eve of a state election our people are
told they must submit to return tt
radical rule, or bear the persecution
OF officials aided by all the pOwe
OF the general government. The time has come
for all Indignant people to rise in their nigh
and protest against this unwarrantable in
vasion of their rights. II we fail In our dut,
our civilization will be lost. The foe ant
stranger will again rule South Carolina; thu
oppression and tyranny which marked tn
history of the Republican rule, in this stat
will again disgrace our civilization and bring
disaster on our people. In this situation o
affairs no true son of the state can doubt a
to his duty.
Let US stand together as one man and viii
we confront the common enemy, preserve 10
ourselves under posterity the peace, justice
and security which under Democracy rule al
classes of our citizens have enjoyed since tn
grand revolution of 1876. They whose onl
offence is fidelity to the welfare of the stat
must net be permitted to suffer as criminals.

American Newspapers in 1882.

The American Newspaper directory, which
will be issued next month by Geo. P. Rowell
& Co., of New York, will contain the names
of 1851 periodicals in the United States and
Territories, which is gain of 344 In the year
Just passed. The number OF daily papers has
increased In a somewhat larger proportion,
and is now represented by total of 996
against 92l in 1881. The largest increase has
been in New York-ten dailies, twerty-nine of
all sorts. Illinois and Missouri show per-
centage of gain which is even greater, while
Colorado leads all others In the percentage of
increase, both of daily and weekly issues.
California, Nebraska. Nevada, Oregon, Sonth
Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont, and West Vir-
ginia have fallen behind 1881 In the total num-
Der of periodicals issued. In Georgia, EMaine
and Massachusetts, the suspensions have ex-
actly counterbalanced the new ventures. In
every state not mentioned above, and in the
territories, there has been an increase.

frager? 1 hope not, for her extravaganza Ian
guage would do more harm than good to the
cause. think too, that she can find unfortu.
nate women enough at home to help and

Mrs. Mason has aid, and probably more
creature comforts now than before, for pri.
vate soldier does not draw big salary. Mason
has attained his ambitlon-nOtOriety- his
ambition was no worthler than Guiteau's:
Two thousand mouths! Oh, Jehu!
In each female tongue,
And these too, at the president,
Will everyone be flung.
Good heavens! what clatter
Two Thousand tongues will make;
And how the widOwer, Arthur,
Will tremble, fear and quake,
find they have precedent
As back times streams we 60,
For noise by blowing rams horns
Brought down all Jericho.
And how will General Boak
With Swisshelm chief OF stan.
Lead Amazons to Mason,
And fightin his behalf
Behold their moving banner
The volunteers beneath
Ali armed with ammunition,
They hold between their teeth.
And when they come to action,
Mark how their foes Will fly,
Like dynamite exploded,
They blow them up sky high.
Then worse thln an Apache,
Tremendously they II yell,
Two Thousand screeching females
Who can their tumult quelll
Although I am of the female kind,
don't believe in going it blind;
And sister Boak, as tearing you go.
To bite off the head Of crazy Guiteau,
Just stop to think, before you start,
That President Arthur is stalwart,
And owes mis- power i, to the daft galoot,
That Sergeant Mason tried to shoot.
