?Gen. Longstreel is for Grant.
That isn't at all strange. He surren
dered something more than his sword

character was perhaps, no worse.
? Mr. Hill continues to give Grant
groat credit for magnanimity. The
mail who ascribes any magnanimity
to Grant, discredits either his own

Senator Bayard.
Tim political issues herptoforc cx
iqlpig between, the two contei^ding
parties qf the cojpntry being likely to
be absorbed into the one great (ines
tion of Imperialism, as represented
by Giant ami his supporters, against
q Copstitqtiqnal Republic, of which
the Democratic party is the exponent,,
it becomes necessary in the approach
ing campaign for the Democracy to
put in the field a candidate for the
I Presidency of irreproachable eharap
I ter and of definitely pjqnoiinced views
'in faypr of tl;p Constitution as it is.
The cause of the Constitution, more
than ever before, should be the cause
of the parly, and to defend it either
against usurpation of power on the
part of ambitious |pai*.erQ or against
direct overthrow by any'man or fac
tion, should be its imperative duty.
1 Such a course would bring to the par
ty's support thousands, of good men
in Ibo North and West, even from
among the Republicans, who revere
the system of government inaugurat
ed by our forefathers and will earn
estly oppose any effort to destroy it.
In every section of the country there
are a number of voters who affiliate
with no party but arc true to the gov
ernment and will not hesitate to
throw nil their influence with the
Democracy on the side of the Consti
tution and the laws. These inde
pendent voters will not give th^ir sup
port to Gen. Grant under the issues
bis friends have made. Indeed every
ninn at the North, who does not en
tertain the absurd idea that the South
is still in rebeilioh and needs to be
kept under further probation by the
government, will espouse the cause
of the Constitution, if "ft candidate ol
the proper type, pure in character and
of unfjnestioqed statesmanship, he
nominated to oppoae the ultra views
of the extreme Republicans.
Who can meet the requirements?
becomes a question of the first impor
tance to the country at this time. It
is evident that no politician, Ijjte Mr.
Tilden, can ; or any man whoBC sple
qualification is'S sectional popularity
like Oov. Seymour ; or any one whose
only chance of success depends upon
any single noble act, howevpr worth) ,
like Judge Fields ; or one who claims
ilie candidacy because of the section
in which he h ppens to live, like Mr.
Thurmau. Such men will do for or
dinary occasions; but in a crisis like
this, when the very existence of the
government itself is held in noise, the
country }ooks beyond the individual
nudthu locality fur qualifications of
liberal statesmanship, which represent
ii) themselves the principles of a J{e
publican government. In no man can
these great principles 1)0 found more
completely embodied than in l)>e per.
son of Senator Bayard, of Delaware.
He stands as the only American
statesman agnlnst whom no charges
can be brought save his peace ppceeh
at Dover in 1801, which was the
enunciation of Beiilimenls entertained
by foil r-fff lbs of the honest slates men
of thai day, Mr. Linpoln not except
ed. Outside of his ppljlicul views, he
represents a financial policy popular
with the capitalists of the North, and
will command their support as cer
tainly as any other man in the conn
try. The record shows hitn a<; a man
of peace and a Jover of libeity, ujid
as a statesman vyjio can lisp above
parly influences, wljen they untago:
nize the interest gf the entire people.
When the political issue is not com
plex but simple likp that of Imperial
ism against the Republic, a singjc
act, or a single fault loses its sign j li
ounce in the greater qualifications of
high statesmanship, liberal views and
purity of character. To these the
citizens Iftok and upon these success
in the next carppnign hinges.
The question of availability can
scarcely be conpidp/ etl here. No one
thought that frpm the rocq-d of Gen.
Hampton, he could by any possible
means be made available as a candi
date for the Governorship of South
Carolina in 1870. Yet, with his ante
cedents brought prominently before
.tjie people, on the simple issue of an
honest government ngqiust a dishon
est ane, bo wns elected Py nn over
whelming vote. Senator Bayard is
as available ns a candidate for tho
Presidency of the United States in
1880, as Gen. Hampton was for the
Governorship .of South Carolina in
187fi, and if nominated will as cer
tniply be elected; The salvation ol
ihe Stalo was accomplished in the
one by the defeat of Chamberlain ; so
will the salvation of thp nation he. ac
complished in the other by the defeat
of Grant.
The War on tho Gamblers.
The authorities of Charleston have
been thoroughly aroused to the im
portance of at least checking this
great evil, and ate waging a relent
less war on tho many gambling dens
that infest the city. This evil exists
Dot only in Charleston but tuen who
ply the devilish art may be found in
eyery town throughout the country
making n disreputable living on the
downfall of their fellow men. It is
known that combinations are formed
by professional gamblers, who go sys
tematically to work honoring the un
wary into their dens and then lleece
them of every cent they possess. To
increase the enormity of the crime,
the inveigling is not confined to men,
but youths am} eyen little' boys
arc omi|P the innocent victims of their
wicked machinations. If there'bc any
spccies,of stealing more criminal than
another ; or any tfeprpdaljpn upon a
community more appalling in its ef
fects than another ;or any calling more
degrading thai) qnplher, that stealing,
depredation and calling is tjip gam
blers. It is the duty of every jjqnesl
man and virtuous woman tp put it
down by any and, eycry legitimate
means within reach. No license should
be granted for the keeping of any such
establishment, ljjetter suffer a town
to become impoverished than to raise
money at the expense of the charac
ter of the community and the good
morals of its young men and boys.
We hope the day is not distant when
there sffall not be n gambling; den
found In tile whole country.
Geo. W. Williams.
Our readers havo scared)' forgot
ten the excitcmcut caused in financial
circles by the announcement one
year ago of the suspension of the
house of Williams, Birnie Co., of
New York. In a public statement
Mr. Willjaras charged the necessity
for this step upon the unwarranted use
by Mr. Birnie of bonds sent to the
firm ; and for ins own protection he
resolved Up entpr trpon the course
of conduct which subjected him to
severe criliplsm by the press and pub
lic. A series of law suits were at
once instituted by the New York
partner as rnueh to overwhelm Mr.
Williams in inextricable trqubles as
to defend himeelf from unjust
charges. The first and, it is said, the
most important of these suits was
fried two necks ago in Charleston,
and the unanjmous verdict of thp
jury, after ten minutes consultation,
was given ,n fRVOr ?f Mr- Williams
and completely exonerates hint from
all blame but justifies him in the
course of conduct pursued. The evi
dence taken both in New York and
Charleston sJiowq M^ r. Birnie to have
been both treacherous and corrupt in
his management ol the business of the
firm.
Tirnber Cullers,
In connection with a cnl| for a
Timber Cutler's Convention tq throw
around this interest the protection its
importance demands, it is suggested
jn the Colfefon D'V^P?rqt llj/jt 15the
principles and influence" of the
Grunge be extended to the timber
business. The relationship existing
betwoen this and the agricultural inter
ests i? so intimate, because those en
gaged in the further must iicpcssariiy
Imj concerned in the latter, that the
suggestion seems to lie not only rpn
sonablc hut absolutely necessary.
Orangehurg County has as large an
interest in this business as our sister
county, aw) tjic same necessity for
protection exists here as in Collcton.
In order that there may be concert of
action on the part of all concerned, we
call the attention of our timber get
ters to the matter. To ttnjle the two
interests in the Grange organization
may work for the mutual benefit of
both by increasing its influence and
securing a better protection to the
farming and timber interest. Let the
matter recciye thp necessary consid
eration.
A Fallen Editor.
Dr. Luther It. Dickinson, editor
and proprietor of the Planter and
Farmer, published at Bichmond, Vn.,
has been detected in tho comnjissior;
of forgeries through a term of two
years upon the firm of Messrs. Jeter
& Dickinson, of the Religious Herald,
Rev. Dr. Geo. B. Taylor, Baptist
Missionary to Rome, and Rev. Chas.
p. Taylor, of North Carolina. This
dishonctl practice might have been
successfully conducted indefinitely
hail it not been for tho death of Dr.
Jeter, which necessitated a settlement
of his nffnirs. Knowing that an qx:
posurc was inevitable, Dr. Dickinson
left Richmond and has not been heard
fiom since. There is nothing more
sad than the fall of a man supposed
to be beyond the shadow of suspicion.
I From the family connection of Dr.
Dickinson and his position iu society
as a leading citizen this is. especially
so.

It seems as if the most cordial re
lation does not exist between Gen.
Sherman and President Hayes. Ina
repent sentence of a Court Martial
in the case of a druujjun Infantry
Lieutenant, tho President mitigated
the punishment to a forfeiture of
wages and a reprimand in general
Orders Gen. Sherman. Instead
of obeying this order bq a good soldi
er ought to do, the General publish
one setting forth that he did not
think this a case worthy of his no
tice. It is quite interesting to per
sons outside of the ring to see such
skirmishing going on inside; it may
be the signal guns of a desperate bat
tle to bo fought" in the near future.
Democrats being only slightly inter
ested will enjoy any diviaon that
throws discortd and confusion into the
ranks of Republican leaders.
Fire at Branchville,.
Tin-; most destructive lire ever
known in Branchville occurred on
Wednesday last about three o'clock
in the morning. The fire broke out
in two localities simultaneously and
before it could be arrested destroyed
eight buildings in the business por
tion of the town. These were the
stores of Messrs. Fred Syphrct, L.
W. Loryea, John Byrd, Jacob Kar
iah, dwelling of Mr. A. J. L. IvI
wards, the postollice building, and
two others tho owners of which we
failed to learn. Messrs. Sypbret and
Loryca were partially insured, but
the others lose everything. Consid
ering tho close proximity of the
houses, and the absence of a fire de
partment, it is a wonder that the
larger portion of the town had not
been burned. Its safety is due solely
to the earnest and noble efforts of the
citizens who worked long, faithfully
and unrcinittihgly until the raging
flames .were subdued and their homes
saved. Y/c learq that die colored
people oame up manfully tp the help
of the white citizens and did nil in
their power to arrest the fire and
sarp the property exposed to danger.
There is scarcely a doubt that the
fire was the work of incendiaries.
Breaking out simultaneously in two
localities at least three hundred yards
distant from each cii:pr, the time
when it pecurred, a nil'tit her accompa
nying pircumstanccs?all go lo con
firm this, opinion. Well directed ef
forts may lead to the capture and
punishment of the fiends. In the
meantime a well organized fire de
partment should bo a" matter of
thonghtby onr'B'ranchville friends.
We clip the1 following additional
particulars of tho lire from the Char
leston 2\T< ws anil (?QW'ter of'yester
day :
Branchville, March 1G.?This
town was evidently simultaneously
fired lo two places this morning about
?1 o'clock. Qne fire was set in "what
ig kppwn litre as the Whetstone
dwelling, owned by Edward Brothers.
The buidlng was unoccupied as a res
idence, but there was stafcd in one \
of the looms a small quantity of fod
der. From this building the lire was
communicated to the postollice ad
joining, and both buildinjp were
speedily roduccd to ashes. There
wrq no insurance on cither building.
Loss 82,P0O. The postmaster, W.
II. Reedish, lost about SHOO in per
sonal property. No insurance.
The other fire originated in what is
kpowp as "pown town," the section
ip wjiiph most of the business bpuses
are located. It was set in the grain
bouse of Mr. L. W. Loryca. The
buildings in this locality arc situated
c|o60 together, and the flames were
soon communicated to the main stored
whenpe tjiey spread tp the stores oc-I
cupied by J. D. Byrd, J. Karish and!
W, F. Syphrctt, -the unoccupied slorcl
of D. K. Coleman, and the warehouse
owhci) by B. p. Moycro, all of which
were destroyed. Mr. Loryea was in
sured to the amount of S3,oQ0 on his
buildings and stock in the following
companies: St. Paul of Minnesota,
Merchants' and Mechanic*' of Virgin
ia, and Petersbprg Insurance Compa
ny <>f Yirgipi"' M'8 l?as '3 about 8-1,
500. J. I). Byrd was not insured
Los? $?()0. J. Karish not insured.
Loss 82,000. W. F. Syphrctt was
insured lo the amount of $ 100 in the
Lynchburg, Virginia, Insurance com
pany. His loss is estimated at 8700.
I Cqjeman is probably Insured. B. D.
Meyers is uninsured, and his loss will
probably reach $l,'0j6?. There nrp
some ugly rumors afloat as to tho ori
gin of Hie lire, but so far nothing def
inite is known.
Washington, March 17.?The fol
lowing telegram was received at the
potdofilct department to-day :
"Buaxcuvii.i.e, S. C, March 1?.?
This town was set on lire in two
places simultaneously ubput 1 o'clock
this morning. Among many other
valuable buildings destroyed was the
postolliee. Most of the government
property was saved.

At a meeting of the committee of

II. RiUGS, Chm'n.
Tho Radd.
We clip the following item from
the Sea Island News the only Repub
lican paper published in the stale,
and we suppose it .is authority in Re
publican matters: "Wc are satisfied
from the best sources that ho State
ticket will be put in the Held by the
Republicans, and if the nominee of
the Democratic party is one against
whom Republicans have no bitter re
membrances and in whose courage and
truthfulness they can rely, every eir

counties a county ticket will bo run
and onp for the electors for President.
This will be the case in Charleston,
Georgetown, Surater, Orangcburg.
Beaufort and one or two others, and
such is the general desire in Wash
