COLUMBIA, S. C.
Friday KorniuR, July 29,1870.
Tho Issue Alacie- Let lt be Diet.
The Radical Convention hua nomi<
nated for Governor, tho presont incum?
bent, and for Lieu ton ant-O o vernor, A.
J. Rnnsier, a colored mun, idonti?od
with the extreme viows of his party, and
who, judging from his reportod remarks,
is disposed to press his party claims
without regard to tho interosts and sen?
sibilities of ft largo and important por?
tion of the people of the. State. The
isauo is thus made. In nominating Go?
vernor Scott for re-electiou, the corrupt
administration of the past two years,,
with all the fraud, bribery, swindling
and corruption therewith connected, is
virtually endorsed, or passed over with?
out rebuke.
Opposed to his party, is the party of
retrenchment and reform. Opposed to
Scott and Ransier, aro thc candidates of
the reformists. The good citizen will
not hesitate long in making his selection.
They who favor good nuil honest govern?
ment in South Carolina; they who
would put an end to tho selfish 6chomes
of money-making politicians; they who
desire to seo in this Stato a condition of
affairs promotive of peace, security and
substantial prosperity, will unhesitating?
ly give their sympathies, their energies
and their votes for that organization
which, under the banner of reform,
seeks to wiu for tho people of South
Carolina the advantages of a regime that
will impartially advauce the public good.
REPUBLICAN FLATFORM:.-The follow?
ing is the platform reported by Ex-Con?
gressman Whittimorc, and adopted by
the Republican Convention:
Resolved, That tho Republicans of
South Carolina in convention assembled,
iu a spirit of amity and ponce towards
their opponents, and of justice to them?
selves, make the following declaratiou of
prinoiple and policy:
1. That, as citizens of tho nation repre?
senting the Republican sentiment of a
prouud and honored Commonwealth, wo
regard with sincere satisfaction the fidel?
ity evinced by President Gruut to the
Republican party, und wo pledge our
cordial support to the measures inau?
gurated by him so insure conciliation,
economy and justice at home, and com?
mand consideration and respect abroad.
2. That we cordially endorse the ad?
ministration of Governor Soott, as wise,
economical and honest, nud that it de?
serves, as it has received, thoheurty ap?
proval of the loyul people of South Caro?
lina.
3. That wo insist ou a coutiuuanco of
strict aud close economy in all depart?
ments of our Government, iu order to
maintain tho happy financial condition
which our Stato hus attained uudor Re?
publican rulo.
4u That wo hail with gratitude tho
adoption of the fifteenth amen?mcut to
the Constitution of the United States, ns
.tho crowing act of American civil eman?
cipation, aud that, iu thu exercise of tho
sacred right of thu electivo franchise
which it proclaims aud perpetuates, we
will elevate to public office only capable
aud honest Ropublicaus, irrespective of
race, color or provious condition.
5. That we hereby pledge tho Repub?
lican party of South Carolina to a firm,
fearless aud Unfaltering support of tho
civil rights bill, and shall demand the
strict euforcoiucut of tho principles that
it enunciates, us just aud practical
assertious of the civil equality of all
American citizens.
G. That wo appeal to tho national
Congress to opon to settlement aud pre?
emption tho 48,000,001) of acres of
public lauds in the Southern States, and
to provide by a tuntable law for tho
purchase, through tho general laud
office or othoiwise, of lands iu this
Stute, to bo sold to tho iaudlcss, under
tho provisions of the homesteud law of
the United States.
7. Congratulating ourselves upou thc
return of peace, tho represeuttitiou of
our beloved State iu tho national
councils, and the comparative quiet that
prevails iu our midst, relying upon
divino Provideneo for wisdom iu council
and efficiency in our action**, with
malice towards nono and charity to all,
wo pledge our earnest and best efforts to
tho success of tho Republican party iu
South Carolina, and enter upon the
campaign of 1870, confident of victory,
with tho noblo words, "Equality boforo
tho law, freo speech, a freo press, a freo
ballot, and free schools," emblazoned
upon our banners.
Speaking of the stirring addresses de?
livered in Anderson, on tho 27th, by
Judge Carpenter, Gens, lintier and Ker?
shaw and Col. Yon muns, tho Gazelle
says:
"Our friends elsewhere nifty rely upon
tho statement, that Anderson echoes
back iu thunder touts tho demand of
othor sections for retrenchment and re?
form, and will roll np ft heavy majority
for Carpenter and Butler on tho third
Wednesday iu October next."
War is likely to break out in another
quarter. British gun-boats have sailed
lor Tiun-Tsin, tho port of Pekin, to de?
mand satisfaction for thc recent out?
rages ou tho foreigners. Tho foreign
residents at Shanghai have been called
upon to volunteer for au expedition
which has tho same destination, and tho
French will send a naval nnd military
forco from Saigon. At Bombay, war
between thc outside barbarians and thc
Celestial Kingdom is regarded as inevi?
table.

THE DEATH OP MK. WALTER LINDLS?.
We have reoeived from Mr. G. B. Sheely, ?
a cousin of tho deceased, tho following (
particulars regarding the death of Mr. (
Walter Lindlar-referred to in yester
day's PHONIX: It appears that with his j
rifle on his shoulder, ho loft homo nt an ,
oarly hour Wednesday morning, intend- (
ing to look through tho fields aud seo
that everything was right. His prolong?
ed ubsence caused uneasiness, whou his 1
father at last went to look him up; his
trail was discovered, and iu a short timo
tho body of tho young mau was found,
with a bullet through tho forehead, and
tho discharged rifle lying by his sido. A
short distance off, tho mark of the butt
of tho gun was seen on the ground, and
tho ramrod near at hand. As tho riilo
hud ;\ hair-trigger, it is supposed that it
accidentally went off, with tho fatal re?
sult stated above. Mr. Liutllcr was a
great favorito in the neighborhood, aud
his death is uuiversally regretted.
