10 SOUTH CAROLINA. Threatening Aspect of Affairs | Throughout the State. VINDICTIVE SPIRIT OF THE } —e Forty Thousand Stand of Arms in | the Hands of a Mob. NEGROES. | Judge Mackey on the Circular of the Attorney General. Corvus, Oct. 11, 1876, “The State Is like a bod of nitro-¢ ers are doing their best to bold in their ho: only requires a touch as slight as that given the knob | shttle daughter when Hell Gate | by General Newto: ‘was blown up to start the explosion.” JUDGE CARPENTERS OPINION, “Pm a republican, but I can’t vote for Chamber- lain, Neither will I vote for General Hampton, be- cause he represents opinions at war with my whole lite, Personally, I like General Hampton; personally, Ido not ike Governor Chamberlain A man of his character is not ft to discharge the duties of the ecutive of the State. He is lke a skiltul forger, who Would be more success{ul in making forgeries than a burgiat ‘This was the voluntary expression of Judge Carpen- ter, of this judicial circuit, in my presence a fewdays ago, and I give itas asampleof what you can bear at any time coming trom the average republican of any re- Bpectabliity or social stending, The difference between Carpenter and nis associates is that, while quite a umber of them freely announce their intention of voting tor Hampton, few of them disagree as to their estimate of Chamberlain. Blows tall thick and heavy trom wil sides on that gentleman's devoted head. H is openly denounced by republicans as well as demo- crats as one of the most corrupt and unscrupuleos leaders of the republican party in this State, not ox- cepting Franklin J, Moses, who was dubbed by the Now York Zimes ‘The Robber Governor.” CONDITION OF THE STATE. As to the comparison of the State to a bed of nitro- rlycerino it is not at all inapt, nor 18 the picture over- drawn in stating that it would require avery slight touch to capse an explosion. Both parties and races are aroused to the highest pitch of bitter political ex sitement. # The whites are making their canvass with allthe energy of desperation and dospair, and the reat mass of the blacks stubbornly and superstitiously cling, with the tenacity of political bigots, to thoir re- publican religion. The former are, for tho frst time in the history of the State, unanimous ia the great effort they are now making to recover the government and free ,themselves from tho oppression fastened upon them,by ignorance, corruption and wholesale public | plunder, On the other band the negroes, as a raco, follow thoir leaders, ,fearing, us they bave been taught, disfrapchisemont and bad government {f the whites succeed, and those who are intelligent among them and have profited by politics realize the fact that if they once lose the government of tho Stale they can never regain it, This fear operates to combiue thie very worst elements of the negro race in the fiercest antagonism against the whites, and, if possible, THR NEGRO WOMEN are more bitter than the men. It to hear of these black amazons openly announcing that 18 the event of a conflict between the races they could use the torch to such advantage as to leave the homes of the whites s mass of blackened ruins throughout the county. The negroes aro not by any means the Quict, lamb-like, docile creatures that some people at the North believe. They are by far more intolerant, proscriptive and vindictive against political apostates ‘ol their own race than the whites are. Consider, too, that they have, as monopolizing the militia of the Btate, over 40,000 stand of arms and ap adequate supply of ammunition to the muskets distributed among theme and it will ve seen that the 90,000 negro voters ef South Carolina are quite a formidable body. To make the matter still worse these arms are not where Vey ehould be, in the armorics and arsenals of the state. They aro in the hands of the negroes, Hardly a cabin can be found without its oid army musket or ew breechloader, and those other favorite weapons of the negro, the razor ana the torch, aro abroad in endless quanti:y. With all theso warlike appliances, and with their passions inflamed by unprincipied ana dangerous leaders, who hesitate at nothing, not at having the negroes butchered to accomplish their ends, it cun easily be seen that in an excited political contest likethe present there was ample ground jor apprebension and alarm among the whites, And in this hes the origin and explanation of @ ritte elu fud tue sabro clubs. THE RIFLE CLUBS. A distinguisbed Mississippi orat bero some two or three years ago. “Be prepared tor vielence and you will have no violence,” aud acting upon that ~ theory the clubs were formed tn nearly every city and county in the Su They are all armed—I woulu say armed to the teeth—but, unlike the negroes, theirarms Delong to them They had to buy ana pay tor them, They oave Winchester rities, pistols and sabres and mm anition, pearly all purchased trom the government ol the United States ln this aspect of the case Gov- ernor Chamberiain’s expression that the State is like au “armed military camp’? is not far wrong; but I have bow been in the State almost two weeks and I have yet to hear ot or see any publicaisplay or exbi- bition of arms, it 1 except two old pieces of artillery which were being taken to Sumter to fire a salute for Mampton when be addressed the people there HAMPTON'S MEETINGS are the most enthusiast cand orderly of any political meetings in the entire country, and the republicans and their spoukers are invited to every one of tnem, to hour and to be heard, But it is in this that the repub- heaps ‘don’t tote fair,” They will not hold meetings ofthel own, nor will they accept the diviet tendered them at Hampton's mvetings tor t trs, Their policy is to keep the negroes as much Possible from the temptation o! the winning ways and teductive blandishmeuts of Hampton’s speakers. Itis she Urst time since recoustruction that the democrats ot South Carolina have ‘giooped to conquer,” and 1t is Ainazing, considering {the menacing aitiude of the partios, to see how keenly and well they are beginning to appreciste the nomage due to the new sovereign in American citizenshi when his vote 18 wanted. They do not bully, patro ize oF argue with ‘the Americanized African, but the; d court him, and olten succeed ip gaining bis po- lections, Goto any meeting of Hampton's ana you can now see negroes by the hundred, mounted ond mixed with the whites, Wearing Hampton badges and cheering lustily for that candidate of retorm and honest government. READING THX NERALD'S RDITORIALS, Adopting tho udvice o the Heracn's editorials, which are read by Hampton himself at every meeting to the negroes, no effurt is made to change their opin- ious a# to the Lutional contest. On the contrary, they are told by the democratic uratoss to vote tor Hayes aud Wheeler, but at the same timo to vote tor Haimp- tun. 1018 this excellent plan of campaign and admirable maoner of conducting the canvass that has so alarmed #overnor Chamberlain and the repabiican leaders.

ATTORNEY GENERAL Tart’s RCULAR—CHARGE OF JUDGE MACKEY, The following is the charge of His Honor T. J. Mackoy to the Grand Jury at the October Term ofthe Court of Common Picus and General Sessions tor York couuty:— dn charging the Grand Jury His Honor stated that ho had heard, but bad no facts warranting the imputa- uuu, that armed organizstions exist in this county, having for their object the intimidation of voters for | the perigee ol controlling the approaching election. Wai nothing of this kind bad occurred in York county for tho past fi years, and while the citizens were never more peaceably tuclined, it ts the duty of the Court to instruct the Grand Jury to inquire tf such organizations do exist; and if they tad tuvy do, to report the same to the Court; while if they Gna that they do not exist, bkewise to report the lact. ‘Tho Court announced 11s readineas to | move at ail umes to secure an inviolable ballot, and to maintuin the jaw supreme, without the guidance of an executive officer at Washingtou, His Honor then stated that his attention bad been called to thi order of Attorney General ‘Tait, which be ch ized us the must formidable aud audacious act of poli. tical intimidation at present within the knowledge of the Court; aud said that the Judge of a Court who would permit the provisions of shat order to be en- forced in his. circuit would be talse to his duty. He said it ig the auty of the courts and of overy citizen of the Stato to ald the United States civil and miilsary authorities when such aid is required; but the law fi a limitto the authority of ap executive officer, and when he transcends tuat limit bo himselt becomes amenable, The circular of Attorney Goneral Tait, continued His Honor, tu eftect expunges the law and its duly constituted tribuouls and substitutes tho will ot a subordinate United States officer therelor. The law is awple to check iutimidation of voters and te puuisn those guilty of intimidation; and the rights of Ho Voter shull be trampled upon, no matier what bis political seutiments or race or color may be, United States marshals and deputy marshals will not bo per- , of this judicial circuit, to carry out the provis- tons of the order of the Attorney General to the ex- tent of disregarding the duly issued process of the State court ance to judi- clal authority adequate force would be invoked to miuintain that authority, and the Court would (he responsibility. He who acts upon the prot of that circular will do 0 as his perti if be violates the constitutional or Icgal rights of the humblest citizen. ‘the circular of the Attorney General in directing United States marshals to disregard tho State oflicers in the execution’ of their instructions virtually pro- poses that every marshal and deputy marshal shall be constitute a supreme tribunal, whose acts, how- ever flagrantly violutive of the constitution and laws of the State, shall not be subject to review by the courts of the State. The President of the United States eVen caunot suspend the writ of habeas corpus for a tingle hour in time of peace, unless specially autbor- ized thereto by the Congress of the United States, Yet the Attorney General assumes to empower a doputy marshai not only to suspend this great sate- guard of personal liverty at will, but to anoul, for the time being, the whole body of criminal statutes of the State, enacted pursuant-to the constitution and laws of the United Stutes for the cue protection of the Liberty and property of the citizen.

OPENING AFRICA LIKE AN OYSTER. jE tess An International Commission for Abolish- ing the Slave Trade. Loxpom, Oct. 1, 1876. Europe has just had her season of congresses—sc!- entific, geographical, social and unsocia, We have had the Geographical Congress, held at Brussels, with an interesting speech by His Majesty the King of the Belgians; the aunual Congress of the British Associa- tion, held this year at Glasgow; the Congress of the Orientalisis at St. Petersburg, and a goodly number of gatherimgs about which the world seems to care luttle or nothing. The least guccessiul of tbe three great gatherings mentioned has Leen that of the British Association, The Morning Post says the geucral impression wag that it has been one of tho dullest congresses of the association on record. Cap- tain Cameron must bave been ander some abnormal in- fluence or other when he addressed the Geographical Section ; for we cannot imagine that this daring trav- eller knows the natives of Africa no better than to assert that ‘oue must deal with them as gentiemen with gentlemen” in order to got along with them, Of course the distinguished traveller had Mr. Stanley's recent letters in mind, One would think that Captain Cameron isin the habit of reading the wissiouary papers and the Saturday Review, whose editors, seated in their cushioned chairs, imagine that they cau c: plore continents and subjugate the rude savage by the simple exercise of their own irresistible seductive Suavity of manner. 1t would be just as generous to say that when Cameron reached the Lualava at Nyat give and turued away {rom it without oven trying to descend it on @ ralt, he proved himael! no longer worthy of the name of an explorer. He preferred to trudge on foot 2,000 miles and to fail when success was within his grasp. THE BRUSSELS GEOGRAPHICAL CONGRESS. The idea of founding a Belgian colovy 10 w distant part of the world ip order to advance tho interests of commerce and indusiry was always a favorite wish of Leupold IL of Belgium. As Crown Prince he pub- lished @ pamphlet uader the ttle of “Le Compiément | de ’uvre ve 1885,"" in which he explained various plans. Some years afterward, when he bad become King, be sent at bis own expense au engineer, M. E.ain, subsequently the private secretary uf tne Emperor Maximilian, of Mexico, to Austrafia and the islands of the Pacific Ucean, in the Lope of finding there some happy spot which, uwoccupied by any other nation, might serve the Belgian purpose of colonization. A‘ present tho King of the Boigians bad régumed this plan, and the proposal is now ww estabiish o colony in Southern Airica, to which is to be joined @ penal set- Uement on tne rench model. Friendly relations have been established ior the purpose wito Pretoria, the capital of the Transvaal Republie, and it is boped that if some thousands of Belgisus avail themselves tmmo- diately of this new opporvunity fer emigrating the pian will bo realized, TUR KING'S ADDRESS, The King of the Belgians bas, however, higher aims than the moro forming of # penal settioment in Atrica, He wishes to promote the turtber exp.oration of Con- trul Airica and to take steps for the suppression of the Juve trade, In his opening address the King said:— “1 have arrived at the belicl that it might be cuuven- jent tor you to come und discuss and determine in common, with the authority velonging to you, the ways to be lollowed aud the means to be employed tor planting definitively tbe siandard of civilizauion on the soil of Central Airica, nud to come to an agreement as to what bas to be done to interest the public in our noble enterprise and to induce it to contrivute toward i.
