The Lesson of the Hour.

The above is favorite caption with
politicians Immediately after an elec-
tion. The conclusions they attempt to
draw, from their favorite party stand
point, are, however, in the main. not
very instructive. The election Just
past in this county gives greater prom
ise of future progress than any Of its
predecesso :. If we could have obtain
ed record of the split tickets voted at
each of the nine district polls, giving
the losses of each prominent candidate
from his own party, and his gains from
the opposite party, such record would
doubtless develop volumes in favor of
the growing independence of the voter.
Mr.. Job Haines compiled such a table
of the 9th district poll while the vote
was being counted
That table as published in last week IS
MIDLAND shows gain for Davis from
the Democrats of IS votes. and loss
from his own party of 81. DR.. Croth-
ers gained 43 Republican votes and lost
81 from his own party. lamar gained
II Republican votes and lost only ]
from his party. Jones gained no Dem.

of the Republican party. When q
party paper even acknowledges the ex.
istence of factions in a party, much
more when it arrays itself on the side
of one of the factions, it's influence has
departed.
The Democrat labors hard to keep UP
old delusions, and lead men blind fold
ed up to the political Juggernaut.
Listen how complacently it declares
every thing is fnised, ne plus ultra
"A vote for men," remarks that paper,
is only another hame for selfishness.
and if closely analysed will rarely fail
10 show either that voters do not prop
erly value their citizenship, or that
they have some personal grievance.
Either is but the inspiration of selfish
ness.
Party men should vote party tickets,
and those who fall below that duty, be-
cause they are not party men, are eth
er to" listless TO be wise or in search of
a Utt pa.
If this principle could be redu ced to
practice there would be no advance. It
is the old doctrine of monarchy trans
fered to the republic. A class to gov
ern and consume the taxes; and class
to pay the taxes and vote as the office
holding organizers direct. Vote for
whoever the managers put up. al
though knowing such to he corrupt and
incompetent. 1t is principle you must
vote for, not men. This will not do,
General. Men are above;all else. No
yirtuous principles can be sustained
by choosing unprincipled officers. Ev-
cry law and every principle is a lope of
sand if honest, intelligent, cons cien-
cious men are not chosen to sustain and
execute them. 1.-THE worst man in nv
party is better than the b.st man i'm the
opposition party'' is and old political
adage of turbulent, revolutionary
times, and is unsuited to this peaceful,
progressing age. "LeC the office seek
the man" is an unsound maxium. It
never seeks him. Let the people seek
the man they will only find Kim by
cutting off the worst and voting only
for the best; and as political intelli
gence increases among the masses, this
course will more and more be pursued
The Democrat places ''plinciples' above
men. What principle is involved in
transacting the county business? Simp.
ly honesty and business qualification.
What principle in political economy
is at stake in our state government !?
None what ever, except in this county
where prohibition or high license is
the issue. Had the Republican nomi-
nees for the legislature come boldly to
the front and declared for amendments
to the Local Option law, and the DEM
ocrats remained silent, the former
would have been elected. Or had the
Democrats made such dec!ara ions and
their opponents continued dumb, their
majorities would have been increased.
Principles in future will be sustained
and advanced by the voter eecting
men of principle and integrity, and not by
h ound about method of a party
platform, written by some ingenious
politician, full of high sounding words
signifying nothing.

COLUMBUS, s. c., Oct. 18-Whits
men in LaHrens County have Just
severely whipped six negroes and cut
of the ears of one According 10 the
whites, w. ii. Workman, white, learn.
cd that Wade Copeland, colored, had
slandered him. Workmen went TO see
Copeland about it and found several
armed negroes with him.
In the afternoon OF the same day
Glen Subor, colored, was heard to ga
that blood had to be shed, and he was
ready TO shed it. A dozen or more
white men OF the ueighborhood went in
search Of the negroes, and found six in
Copeland's house. namely Wade
Copeland. Glen Subor, Drayton Subor,
Warren Copeland and Bout Williams.
They were all armed, and were evident
ly expecting an attack. On reaching
the house the negroes were ordered by
the white men to come out, but they
refused to obey. One of the attacking
party then pushed open the door, and,
as he did so, was fred at by some one
in the house, The party on the outside
returned the fire, but nobody WAS b 1t on
either side. After some parleyin the
six negroes came out, and all were
severely whipped. Warrants have
bsen issued for about q dozen white
men, W o, these negroes say, were in
the party.

Tho Great Cincinnati Fraud.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 18.-The air in
Cincinnati is sulphurous. The official
count Of the vote of the county will be
begun to morrow, and it will probably
take two or three days to finish it.
There is every indication tonight that
certificates will be given TO the Demo-
cratic candidates all around. The face
OF the returns for the Legislature and
Senate as collected by reporters of all
the papers on the night of the election
shows that every Republican Senator
and every Republican candidate for the
House except one was elected by ma.
iorities ranging from 100 to 500.
The tone Of the Enquirer to-day ia
savage in it's claims that the returns
will show all the Democratic Hcket
elected except county com missioner
The claim that the emocratio ticket
WAS elected IL denounced by numerous
Democrats who voted 1t as a prepara-
tion to add another to the great lists of
frauds perpetrated at the election.

n Brussl Onkeer .

Yesterday afternoon. while reporte
OF the REPUBLICAN WAS standing q
chestnut street wharf, Philadelphfs
waiting for the steamer Brandy wine
he witnessed most uncalled for AND
brutal outrage. committed ~ . police
man, who is evidently byttsr lifted to be
Thug tLan d oOnservator Of the peace.
The two officers on duty in the vicinity
OF the wharf had arrested . man who
was somewhat under the influence OF
liquor, and, as far as could be learned
belongs in Chester. Tbey took their
prisoner TO the patrol box on the corner
or Delaware avenue and Chestnut
street, and one of the officers opened
the door Of the box and called for the
the patrol wagon from Third and Union
streets. In precisely four minutes
pair ofhorses came tearing down Chest
nut street with the wagon containing
three offi GERS and driver.
This vehicle is about seven feet in
length, with a row OF seats ON each
side, aud an elevated seat in front for
the driver, who was fianked on either
side by an officer, while the third one
occupied a seat in the wagon. At the
rear OF the wagon there are two or
three steps, and as soon as it came to u
"Sc.N oe-ii VIC SUM tOWaTQB III
with their prisoner. When they rea = cd
the steps one of the blue Goats gave the
man o rough push and ordered him to
"Get in" lie pushed back and re-.
marked: 81 don't have to-" when the
ruffians picked him up, almost bodily
and threw him in, and the officer who
was seated 10 the wagon seized him by
the neck and dragged him toward the
front, at the same time pressing his
Knee on the PROSTATE mans throat.
It was but natural to suppose that
the man would make Rome resist an ce
under such brutal treatment, and when
no tried TO raise up, the Thug In the |
wagon struck him stunning blow on |
the head with a blackjack aud would
no donbt have repeated it, had not the
crowd, which by this time had swelled |
10 at least one hundred, warned him
not to repeat it. The poor fello ", dazed |
and haif uncons ciOu5, was then /
strapped down TO the floor of the wagon,
and the driver starred off amid the
yells and groans of the crowd. This /
outrage was unprovoked aud totally un.
called for. as there were enough otfi GERS /
present to have handled the man with.
out resorting to sach shocking bru.
tality.
Had the same thing occurred in Will |
mington under Mayor Rhoads, the Off |
,er would not have been on the force
one day afterwards. This outrage was
in broad daylight, in the
presence OF a large number of people,
and 1t Is easy tn suppose how it would
have been, had the man been arrested
It night, and no one but the Thugs 10
witness the affair. Such an outrage
would be disgrace to any city, but
more specially to one that pridss it,
'elf on being the "City Of Brotherly
Love"
