seat iu Congress, from the 5th district, said
in public speech at MIR. J. C. Dyes in
Chester county, last week, 81 do not fear the
Force Bill"
The Force Bill is the strong pet party
measure Of the Republicans. Every other
rar'y is directly and unequivocably opposed
10 it, because they see in it the prostitution
of the constitutional guarantee of free
ballot TO every vo er, places the ballot box
under the control of the military, to perpet-
ua,e the rule of tho dominant political party,
aud is au insul, to the intelligent manhood
of every American citizen.
The coudida'c for Congress who an
nounces that he "does not fear the Force
Bill" gives n tee TO the people that, if
elected, he will not interpose any objec-
ton 10 its passage, and is more Of Re-
publican than Democrat.

from the State OF South Carolina to which
he has given the best years AMI labors Of
his illustrious life.
Gen. Hampton is getting old. In n few
years his form will be laid to rest in tho soil
where sleep four generations of patriotic
ancestors. The small tongue of malice and
prejudice cannot blackcn Hampton now.
Ills name is household word in the
United States. Whenever q South Carroll

him because he came from the Stlc that
gave birth TO Wade Hampton.
Future historians will place his name By
the side of Rutlcdge, Legare, Laurcns, Sum
ter, Marion aud Calhoun
<. You can bury man with votes, but you
cam bury the remembrance of heroic
deeds and a patriotic heart. A temporary
cyclone of ingrattude may drive q man into
retirement, but unbiased history will place
him on the vantage hill of truth.

Wade Hampton and may the rising genera

that large properly owners should favor

prove decided hardship. --Mcw6erry Obser-
