MOUTH CAROLINA.
Chamberlain Makes Fight.
It appeara that new complications bavo
arisen in South Carolina affairs. Cham
berlain and hia friends, it is said, have
determined to make an effort to have
him continno to assert his claim to be
Governor, on the ground that If neither
him nor Hampton were properly inangn-
rated, then Chamberlain holds over, un
der a clause of the constitution of Sooth
Carolina, which provides that all officers
shall oontinue to discharge tho duties of
their office until their successors are
elected and qualified.
Wright, the third Judge of the Supreme
Court, holds this doctrine.
Chamberlain (who arrived at Colum
bia yesterday) and his friends insist tnat
tho Legislature mast meet, if it meet at
all, under Chamberlain's call, and cither
order a new election, a recanvass of the
vote, or do whatever is to be done, as the
case may be.
Suspcclea Pirao .
Boston, April 8 — The Herald pub
lishes a statement to' tho effect that there
are grave suspicions that Wm. Maguire,
sole survivor of the crow of the brig
Boanoke, did not tell a true story. His
statements to Captain Carson, of the
schooner which rescued him, were contra
dictory and gave rise to a suspicion that
tho crow mutinied and probably murdered
tho Captain and hia followers, and also
tho passengers, and that the vessel be
came unmanageable alter they got pos
session of it.
It docs not seem consistent that tho
passengers would havo deliberately
drowned themselves while there was the
least hope of being caved. In tho safe
which v as located in the Captain’s cabin,
were $50,000 in gold—a sufficient incen
tive for an uprising of the crew.
It ia surmised that tho crew drank
freely of lager, and while drank, went
below to get tho contents of ths safe, and
had a fight with the Captain and the
sailors who remained faithful.
This suspicion is based on the fact that
Msguiro says that ono of the crew—a
I tun—threatened to shoot tho captain,
aad the fact that one of the crew was
found dead, with his upper lip cut off,
when Maguire was taken eff by Captain
Oar-on.
Maguire saiJ, in explanation, that the
Finn cc! a pistol out of a dozen that
were lying snout the cabin, and that the
deu.l uian found on the Wreck had his lip
bit i ff in a fiei.t with one of the crew on
the 26th of March.
Maguire is a thick set Irishman, and
when found, showed little signs of ex
haustion, a fact rather strange, in view
of hi. claim that maDy of his comrades
cad died of exposure.
i'uiLADXLPniA, April 8.—Capt. Car
■on. ot the schooner Annie Todd, arrived
here yesterday. He says when Maguire
. u taken from the Boanoke he was
nearly exhausted. At no time did he
correct his story or contradict himself.
All bands bad been drank on her and
they had fought among themselves. The
raft, Maguire said, was washed over
board the night previous. Magaire also
tells a plain story to-day, and does not
deviate from that first told. The man
who attempted to shoot tho captain was
drunk, and he also tried to injure Ma
guire.
The story that thcro was a dead man
on the wreck with his upper lip cut off,
Maguire says, is false.
The insurance men believe Maguire's
story, and will pay the loss. Capt. Car-
son came here to tell tho fsmily of Mr.
and Mrs. Dallett that the rumor of a mu
tiny and mnrder is without foundation.
The LoctmotlTe Brotherhood.
Pnir.iDxi.rzni, April 8.—The Baading

changed policy cf Chamberlain and nis

scrions effect in delaying pacification.
There is much curicsity os to the po
litical clique which engendered tho
change. I: is known that before going
North Chamberlain was contented to al
low the wishes of the President to rule
him. There has been an intrigue.
General politics are devoid of interest,

upon a charge that General Carey had ta
ken advantage of tho confidence reposed
in him by a number of individuals, who
made heavy investments in a Colorado
mine. The Court found that General
Garey had agreed with his associates and
partners in the enterprise to bnv a mine
for ttoir common benefit for $50,000
and held the money to buy as their sgent.
He bought it for $22,000, and then di
vides the balance between himself and
his nephew. The balance of $23,000 tho
Court decided must be accounted for by
Carey to the subscribers of the stock.

THE SOUTHEBN POLICY.
Tbo ‘WashiDKton Star and the
How York Times on tho Policy
of Boslstanco.
The Star this afternoon closed an arti
cle captioned “Chamberlain’s new atti
tude" ss follows: “It is stated that Gov
ernor Chamberlain, and those who will
stand by him, have one or two objects in
view: First, Either to force President
Hayes to directly recognize Hampton, if
ho means to give him tho aid and com
fort of the administration, or, foiling to
do this, to have tbo question referred to
Congress at its special session for each
legislation as tbo urgency of tha situa
tion demands. The hope seems to
be that, if a political debate Is
started in Congress, the delay will canco
re action in sentiment favorable to
Chamberlain, and possibly induce Hamp
ton to forego the pledges he made to
President Haye3 and attempt to gain, by
force, or coup d’ ctat. what would involve
a tedions delay through the forms of
law."
The Star elsewhere in its gossip says,
editorially: Tho indications are that
Chamberlain and Packard have been ad
vised to stick, by some of the Northern
extremists of tho Republican party. Tho
sndden change in Chamberlain's views,
and tho announcement that he has de
cided to hold on to bis office of Governor
till ejected by legal process, is looked
upon a3 affording proof that ho has been
pnt up to this course by some persons in
the back gronnd; bnt it is pretty certain
that his backing does not embrace any
considerable portion of even the pro
nounced Republicans.
The New York Times, which has been
the vigorous exponent of straight Repub
licanism, gives Ohsmberlsin the cold
shoulder in his reslstence polioy. “There
are Republicans at the North as well as
at the Sontb," that paper says, “who, for
obvious reasons, desire to perpetnato the
Southern question with all its embarrass
ments as nu element in national politios.
Any settlement which shall remove the
question from tho partisan arena is, to
politicians of this o'.ass, a grievanco of
tho first water. To their efforts may
be traced the attempt to indnoo
Mr. Chamberlain and bis associates
to interposo all possible hindran
ces to tho legal measures which
may bo taken for the confirmation of Mr.
Hampton’s authority, consequent npon
tbo removal of tho troops from the State
House. Whether sneh proceedings lead
to strife and bloodshed is to these desper
ate partisans, a matter of tiifliog mo
ment. Their sole object i3 to create ex
citement which might revive partisan
passion tbronghont ths North and Sonth
and frustrate tho conciliatory polioy of the
President.
'Mr. Cnamberlain will disappoint us if
lie lend himself to any of these schemes.
The sympathy now felt for him will be
destroyed if ho prolong a contest which
in existing circa instances can havo bat
ono end.”
As regards the Louisiana case, tho
Times says that tha complications are
more serious and that unless both parties
recode a little from the extreme position
they have assumed, the Commission will
leave Now Orleans without accomplish
ing anything ; bat it holds that the duty
of tho President as be interprets it, is in
no manner identified with the mainten
ance of Mr. Packard in an offico whose
functions bo is unable to perform, and a
brief order to tbo troops will leave him
helpless. These views, deprecating the
policy of resistance, coming from a Re
publican paper of the standing of the
Timas, have significance.
Mr. Hayes is constantly reoeiving let
ters from all parts of tho country, the
writers being of bath politioal parties,
approving bis administration policy.
It is not supposed, in high official quar
ters, that Chamberlain will make as deter
mined an opposition to his snpercednro
in offioo as has been anticipated h* the
press. Jost previous to bis dep«:;u»o lot
Sonth Carolina, hi showed a disposi
tion to yield to the prossnre against him;
bat, nevertheless, will resort to each
means as will, with a show of law, re
lievo him from his present position with
out appearing too readily to submit.
“I Would Wot Liva Alway.”
Dr. Muhlenberg, recently dead, was

present exigencies call for an expression
of confidence in tho upright intentions
and statesmanlike purpose of President

MIDNIGHT DISPATCHES.

St. Petersburg, April 9.—The Agenda
Rusts publishes the following: ‘‘Tnrtey's
reply will be evasive. The Porto main
tains complete independence in all its
domestio affairs. It proposes a willing
ness to send immediately an extraordi
nary envoy to St. Petersburg; bnt i a doing
so expresses no intinlion of previously
con lading pesoo with Montenegro. It at
tach is, in foot, to peaoe with Montenegro,
conditions which render it obvions that
tho Porte wishes to gain timo end avoid
any deoiaion whatever, tbns leaving to
Russia the initiative of a rapture."
Constantinople, April 9.—At the
council of ministers t>day no resolution
was arrived at regarding the question of
peace with Montenegro, or the sending
of an envoy to St. Petersburg.
Berlin, April 9.—The evening papers
make contradictory statements about
Bismarck. The National Zeitzung says the
Emperor’s decision refuses Bismarck’s
resignation and grants leave of absence.
All the arrangements have been made
for his substitute daring the furlough.
Tho North German Gazette and the Post
say Bismarck has not urged an immediate
decision respecting his resignation. The
question is by no means settled. The
selection of substitutes will be settled to
morrow and Bismarck will then leave.
An enthusiastic public meeting at Bremen
bes demanded that the Germau Parlia
ment should confidingly and unreserved
ly support Bismarck and enable him to
remain in office.
Tho Telephone Concert.
■Washington, April 9.—The telephono
concert here to-night was a snccces. A

which had no connection with the tele
phone wire beyond following the eamo

A Democratic Senate in 1879.
The Washington Siar (Republican)
oonsiders it unsafe lo forecast the politi
cal complexion of the House of Represen
tatives ofthe4Cffi Congress, bnt considers
it among tha strong probabilities the
Democrats will havo a majority in the
Senate. One-third of tbo entire number
of Senators retire March 3, 1879. It is
now almost certain that by that time the
Democrats will have fall control of tho
legislatures of every Southern State
which will have the effeoi of making their
Senatorial representatives in Congress a
unite so far as politics are concerned.
Messrs. Spencer, Dorsey, Conover, and
Patterson are the only retiring Eadioal
Senators from the Sonth tn the year
named, and they will undoubtedly be suc
ceeded by Democrats. If tbe retiring
Senators from tbe Northern States are
succeeded by persons of their own politi
cal faith the Democrats would still have a
fair msjority in the Senate. Among the
Senators from Northern States who go
ont are Messrs. Conbling, Morton, Howe,
Allison, Barnum, Jones, of Nevada, Og
lesby, Sargent, and Wadleigh.
