Charleston, October 29.—Governor Scott
has issued the following proclamation :
To the Citizens of South Carolina :
Fellow-Citizens r The numerous Com
plaints made to the department of murders
and outrages committecTby wicked and incon
siderate persons excited by intense party
feeling, made it my .dhty to. issue the late
proclamation, calling upon all good and true
men, without respect ( to political predilec
tions, to unite in a' determination to discoun
tenance and denounce lawlessness and vio
lence, and, in an effort to recover and main
tain the good name that has heretofore been
tlie heritage and the pride of our beloved
State. It is now my pleasing duty to con
gratulate you upon the beneficial results that
have ensued from the admirable and well-
timed address of General Hampton and the
Executive Committee of the Democratic par
ty, in honest and impressive terms they have
called upon the people to support the laws,
to preserve the peace and denonnee those
crimes which have so recently been commit
ted in some portions of our State. These
patriotic counsels cannot fiuTof having a wide
and wholesome influence Jin moderating the
Tehemenee of feeling of those to whom they
are authoritatively addressed, while they have
quieted the apprehensions and conciliated
the respect and good will of their political
opponents. .» - .
This is certainly a just cause of coagratuls-
tionto every well wisher of the State; and it
gives me unfeigned pleasnre to acknowledge
it, and to earnestly invoke the co-operation
of every member of the Bepublican party in
reciprocating to the fullest extent of pacific
policy soadmirably inculcated by the Demo
cratic I@4ors?ULet: acrimonfons-and irrita
ting discussions be avoided, and appeals be
B»4e tq the intelligence aud reason, and net
to the fears or passions of the community.
Differ as we may in political sentiments, it
is the dictate alike of wisdom and patriotism,
for all to appeal toand cdfifide in the efficacy
of peaceful remedies for political evils, actual
or supposed. Let * ‘ bear and forbear” be our
maxim, and so shall the peace, prosperity and
honor of our beloved Siate be maintained
and perpetuated, and her time-honored es
cutcheon will he pregeryed. unsullied, and
undimmed in ail its original purity and

Urinate Republican Pahty,
Atlanta, G.l, r Ootober 23,
Bepnblicons of Georgia! yon have already
read the cheering news from the great Cen
tral States—Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana. -
The Waterloo defeat of the Democracy has
utterly demoralized that party. It is con
ceded by honest and well informed Bepnbli-
cans that the Democrats will carry one North
ern State. The Democrats hope to carry spnie
of the Southern States.: Desperate efforts
will be made by that party to carry Georgia.
Bepnblicans! We must cast the Electoral
vote of Georgia for Grant and Colfax. We
can if every Bepublican will do his whole
duty, and if-we have a fair election. You
have but a few more days - to work. Let eve
ry man do his duty. Try aud have every Re
publican in your'county vote. The Governor
hus ordered the proper officers to open three
ballot-boxes at the county site, and it will be
best, probably, for the Republicans to go
there to vote.
We are informed that in some countios onr
friends fear that they will not be allowed to
vote. We advise every Bepublican to make
the attempt. If thereto* danger, demand pro
tection from the Sheriff. If he fails to pro
tect yon, report the fact to this committee. ’
An attempt may be made to prevent some
Republicans from votiug because they have
not paid their poll tax for 1867... If any are
challenged op that account show i the procla
mation of thejGoverhor suspending the col
lection of that tax, and if they are not allowed
to vote," report the fact to Oris committee.
Should the Ordinary of any county refuse
or neglect to open three ballot boxes at the
county site, show him the proclamation of the
Governor ordering him to do so, and if he
still neglects or refuses to obey the proclama
tion, report the fivet to this committee, that
the vote of that county may be rejected.
Bepnblicans, do your whole duty. If every
Bepublican in Georgia is allowed to. vote, .we
will carry the State ; /or Grant andOolfftit : by,
20,*050 majority. If’they are not allowed to
vote, the vote of this State will not be conn ted.
We, therefore, urge upon every Republican
the importance of making the attempt to
vote.
If any Republican in this State shall know
of any fraud, intimidation or violence of any
kind or character being committed at the
election, we earnestly request him to report
the facts promptly to the Committee.
To make the matter plain, we say most par
ticularly—
Tell the day, tell the place, tell all the facts,
tell the name of tho wrong-doer, the name of
the injured party, and the name of the wit
nesses. When possible, make affidavit of all
thesejaeta.
Report every case where a Bepublican.
cursed or Otherwise insulted.
Every case where a Republican is threaten
ed with loss of employment.
Every case where a Republican is threaten
ed with loss of home.
Every case where yon are told that yon can
not be safe without voting the Democratic
ticket:-'. .' -£
Every case where a Republican is struck or
hurt in any way.
Every case where a Republican is way laid
or bnsh-whaekeij.
When von cannot write, report to some
trusty friend who will send it to the Commit
tee.
If any. violence or unfair means shonldbe.
used.At.the polls, be sure to report it, so that
the vote of that Pricinct maybe thrown out
by the Governor in the county.

a doubt in the minds of'those who had ever
sincerely rejoiced at. the. news of a Union
victory in. battle, that, a Democratic success
at the polls would be a' vindication oDthe re
bellion, and a- condemnation of the Union.
While there are thousands of good, honest,-
loyal and true men, Democrats, here at the
North, who do not realize The foil effect of a
vote, now cast with and for their old party
leaders, at the Sonth there is no misunder
standing. There the party lines’are sharply
drawn for and against .the. Government, and
are made up of men from all the old parties,
Whigs, Democrats, Know Nothings, “original’
re-union,” and “original secessionists,’’united

be construed by the malcontents at the South

“lost cause” has been regained, and that the
war was a failure.
It is fortunate that time lias elapsed before

The Governor’s - - Proclamation — Shall
Those Who Have Not Pald.Theitr.Taxes
for tbie. Y.ear 1867 lie Allowed to Vote!
Mr. Editor: Having read yonr able editorial
of the 22d instant, on this , subject, this .is
written only .for the purpose of keeping your
suggestions before the. public andperhaps to
ofter one additional.
, The Governor, in the proclamation aljove
referred to,“cites as. his authority for is^umg
the same the 70th'section of the revised Code
of Georgia, which reads as follows: “The
Governor may suspend the ’ collection' of the
taxes, or tiny part thereoi; due the State until
the meeting of th e next General Assembly,
but not longer; nor shall he othencise interfere
with the collection thereof:”
Then it is evident from the reading of this
section, upon which alone he relies for au
thority that he has not, or at least, has not
the shadow of authority to suspend, or. interfere
wi’h the collection of. the taxes due the counties.''
For it is plain -that, he has jurisdiction only-
over the taxes “dse the State," by the words of
the law. Yet it must be borne in mind that
these county taxes are just as legal and have,
wider the 2d Section of the 2d Article of the
Constitution, to be paid, before a tax payer
is qualified to vote, as well as the taxes,
due the State. By reference, to Section 346 of
the Code, it appears that the “Justices of
the Inferior Court” (now the Ordinary) have
full power to levy* a general and■ special
tax ; and Section 562 of the Code farther
declares that if any of said' taxea should be
claimed as unjust, improper or onerous, that
they (now the •'Ordiuaiy’’) are the proper
tribunal to hear, and determine the matter.
Thus showing that the Governor has nOtliing
whatever to do with the assessing pi 'colle'ct-
ing of taxes. Nor has the Governor said in
taking prominent places in public discussion,
derived from those acts in Geor-
the results
gia become more notioeable, and worthy of
consideration outside of that State. First,
. then, the intent and purpose of Congress in
passing-the reconstruction acts was-to estab
lish civil State'Governments—Republican in
form and in fact—approved by a majority of
the persona resident therein, who were not
disfranchised for a participation in the rebel
lion. ; This was accomplished in the usual
way—by a registration of the persons who
were to vote,. and subsequently the election
of delegates to frame a Constitution; then an
election for thfi rptification or rejection of'the
Constitution so framed.
In Georgia an-electicm wpsljeldfor State
officers and a General Assembly at the satqe
time of voting’ for or against tHe Constitu
tion. MX ■■ 1 - . i---
As the Democrats voted against Ore Consti
tution, ; and hoped to defeat it, and thereby
refuse the. second offiar - of terms by the con
queror, candidates were placed in nomination
by them -simply for the purpose of aiding by
their personal popularity- and war record in
bringing out their votes .to defeat'.the Consti
tution, and not with regard tp their eligibility
uuder the law; or with, any expectation of
their taking office; for, the Constitution being
defeated at the polls, wifi would remain under
military government- The result, however,
was the ratification of: the Constitutiop-by a-
majority of ttye \yhqfa vofo; while p many
counties that" gpve majorities against the
Constitution, - ineligible Democrats secured
the highest number pf votes, and were
therefore elected to county ogees apd the
General : A sSAmhlv - - ■' — : — -
General Assembly.
By the terms of ttje ReoanstroPtion acts,
all civil government W ftp ftefo Mas “pro
visional-”- until tlie newly-establjshed State
Constitution was; accepted hy Congfeas, and,
by the same act as amended W July, . 1867. all
persons itiaefod qr appointed ft office id any
of the Southern States were required to take

oath— The closing section -of the Beoonsfrnc--

The cose as presented in Georgia was that
of a number oif persons -plppted t« ofijee in a
government whtofi fWffo 'Spravisional” until
approved by Congress, and according to the
law snoh persons should have taken the oaths
prescribed for officers of the United States. ■

and the men wh'o had been the mMt popular
in an effort to defeat the new Government,
were allowed to"toEe seats as legislators in its

I may be excused for suggesting- the course -
which seems to me proper to bo pursued to
insure the establishment of a State Govern
ment as provided for in our.Constitution, and
as required by Congress.
Congress should take steps to ascertain
whether the reconstruction acts have been
properly executed. Finding that the laws
have not been’executed, the proper authority.
should be advised of the true intent and
meaning of-the acts, and directed to properly
execute them.
This would result in preventing persons
who could not take the oath required of offi
cers of the United States from participating in
the provisional legislation, aud ftns effoctual-
his proclamation that the collection'of these
taxes should be suspended. He has used the
general term “poll taxes;” and he having au
thority over the taxes “due the State," only, it
will in law be construed to mean the -poll
taxes “due.the State.” So while he is willing
to have it misconstrued for the benefit of the
Radical pasty, l\e doeg not dare to.plainlyat-
tempt sqch a glaring usurpation of-authority,
for he knows too well the nncertniu tenure of
his office, . . , - - r .... .....
Our next proposition is this: Js it not a vi
olation of the Governor’s proclamation to
refuse to allow those who have not paid their
State foxes (much less county foxes, as shown
above,") to vote? For, again, the Governor,
with the shrewd Brown and the canning
Hulbert ns his advisors, has been vfery careful
not to say that the payment of these same
taxeB that he speaks of should not be mode
a test of qualification to yqfo. No; he does
not say so; hflt h? tifoftll' suspends the col
lection of taxes that have been 1 due and^ re
quired for months; and hopes thereby to
have the managers of election infer that the
applicants to vote are' thereby relieved
