Some Sully IT«wip»par Matter for South
Carolina Today—Counsel for the
State to Appeal From Judge
Goff’s Decision*
Columbia, S. C., May ?tt -All eyes
ore now turned towards Richmond, the
capital of the Confederacy, and It
6eems o little strainfe that that city
of all cithers should Ik* the place where
South Oatoltoa will make her appeal
from the decision o. Judg? Goff on the
res&traitloc lanp—laws so intimately
connected with' eCeUts of the late tm-
plcasantness-ia decalon to which fre
quent references were made to the
causes leading up to the unpleasant
ness. Vet this week South Carolina,
through her attorneys, will appear
theme and before as court of appeals of
the Untied States make her appeal for
states rights.
The result of the more that has been
ifleeided upon by the state leaves the
present outlook a little in) doubt just
now. There is a possibility that the
court may reverse Judge Goff's decis
ion. to which case the entire Kituat'on
will bo very much changed. It Is
not generally thought, however, that
the cojrt wil make nffly such reversal,
and In that case the uncertainty will
simply amount to a delay to the cam
paign. The state is very hopeful of
wtaninig the appeal. Tomorrow after-
poon Assistant Attorney-General Town-
set I and Gen. Edward McOrudyi of
Charleston and Senator Joseph TV.
Barunvell will leave for Richmond to
appear on the question before the
(United States court of appeals and ar
gue the motion to have that court
docket the appeal nnd 11s a* day for the
hearing.
Governor Brans, in an interview to
day, says he is conlideut of having God
reversed. Be stuys, moreover, that no
matter what may he done, he proposes
to have the constltut'onal convention
held and the election conducted In such
a way that no shadow can ever rest 1
upon tlie constitution that Is made, so
far as the federal constitution Is con
cerned. The Republicans of the slate
■fie pursuing a waiting policy. They,
say they axe prepared to prevent the
supervisors of reglstra-t-ftm, from I vio
lating Judge Goff’s order neat Monday,
though Governor Kraus had instructed'
his supervssoiw to go ahead as If the in*
junct.on was never issued. They are
preparing to organize, State Chairman
Mcltor says. Reptibltain leagues for
\ work dim the national campailgu In every
section of the state and will have a
■. ^degatlorb at the national league meet
ing .to Cleveland next week.
XTomorrow tho State will publish a
/ witty racy correspondence between
.' Vpator Butler and lievorno* livens.
..Senator Butler wrote Governor 11 vans
■Hon May 15 the following:
’>, /••'Sir: I notice In The State of today
•That purports to be an address to
\l (Fellow Citizens* from you, and find
V the following Is a part of It:
j '* si " Tile ex-Senator who had been hold-
/ r *9ig caucuses in Columbia at private
1 houses, having tho ear of the court
and holding the foot of the chancellor,
i returned to hia'home. feeling that bis
^movements had not been detected." but
/the responsibility shall rest where It
) belongs. Let the people not blame the
toor. lean hungry counsel, who arc
| barking merely for a bone, but visit
, ihe sin upon the head of the arch-
tconsplrators.’
if *T beg to Inquire whether I am the
'senator to whom you .refer? Very
M. C. Butler.*!
■ior Evans on the 23d replied aa
( “Sir? to reply tp yours of the 15th I
[eg to state that you were the ex-Sen-
iftor to whom I referred in that por
tion of my address quoted In your let

"John Gary Evans."
Senator Butler, after giving letters
from Messrs. Pope and Caldwell, the
counsel In the cases referred to. to
the effect that he had nothing to do
with the matter, appends the follow-
hg:
‘ • do not like' to be misrepresent
ed even by a blackguard, since my
service In the senate ended on the 1th
of March last I have been a private
citizen, attending to my own buob.
ness, and tills man had no right to
•raw me Into this scurrilous, sopho-
morle , self-advertisement, which he
styles an 'address, to fellow cltisens.'
He appeals to have had me under the
surveillance of one of his detectives,
Who have become so fashionable under
late orders of state administration and
betrays himself Into the utterance of
a foolish falsehood. The truth Is, he
Is oadly afflicted with what the doc
tors call hydrocephalus, commonlv
kqpwn aa swell head. He assails
judges on the bench with awkward vul
garlty and brutal coarseness, knowing
them to be peace officers, and, as such
non-combatants. This he can do with
/ - Impunity, but the time may come when
forbearance with his Insolence may
— cease to be a virtue. His powers of
Recrimination between right and
Wrong, truth and falsehood, fair crlt-
lelem and elander, are so vague and
filmy that he ought perhaps to be re
garded as an object of pity and con-
'" than indignation and re
: myself before the public
V / as a target, I can etanil crWctsm ns
{ will as most men, but I have no Idea
l | of permitting slanderers to follow me
I' Into private life to Indulge their vicious
propensities.
"Another reason T Save for troubling
the public with this matter Is ‘hat
other members of the ring have been
circulating danders and mNrroreseuia-
itlons about me on a 'in* of Intending
to create a false Impression in the pub-
,11c mind, and I avail myself or this
ipportuntty to denounce them.
"They are trying by a hue and
about ‘white supremacy’ to frtght-
tbe timid in their clutches. There
. not the least danger of ;hr negroes
\ I luting control of the govenment of
k 'rfs state or of twbtte supremacy' be-
Lg endangered, and they know it.
Whatever of petit there l» to white *u-
Iprenncy has been created by the ring
now trying- to drag our white men
onto condoning their corrupt practices.
They are responsible for the menace
of ‘negro supremacy’ tf there to one:
and no amount of bluster and false
pretense can conceal It..
“They have rejected every fair and
honorable overture for reuniting tne
white people, and. for one, I shall have
nothing to do with the ring primary.
If a primary could be held on the plan
of the ‘forty’ there would he no objec
tion 'to It. tout these fellows Who will
not agree to that, because It would
result in penco and good feeling—the
last thing they want.

A SILVERITE CONVENTION.
Tennessee Pairttsaih Seem to Have
Been (Hurt 'By; tho Gathering ait
• Memphis.
Memphis, Tenth, May 20.—The Bi
metallic League of Tennessee has Is
sued toe following prominc'amenio:
■"To the People of the United Stotts:
The am* enemies of the agricultural
emd producing classes of our country,
moved toy greed and encouraged by
amtoce, have conspired to transfer the
eissemt tally governmental function of
ilsiutog and ooawroll.ng the money vol
ume of the nation to u system of bank
ing for corporation!?, full of the vice of
Class Itglsloitlan and void of any virtue
which ooromenlds It to the counklena-
*tam of a pa triotic citizen.
"Undaunted by the failure to secure
the sanction of the American congress,
the promoters of this nefarious scheme
have boldly taken the initiatory steps
to attain tho object of their conspiracy.
(Backed by the great power fit exhaust-
less wealth and the Influence of high
official position, they have publicly con
vened to the city of Mempnis and
opetfly declared their pvu’pasu They
demand that the constitutional and lil-
■liereut sovereign right to issue money
be delivered ihto the r bauds. They
hesitate at no deception, they eorttpla
at no fraud. Knowing the lunate in
tegrity of our people, they irate of
■honest money.’ Appr totaling our aver
sion to paternalism, tliey say the ‘gov
ernment must go out-of ‘ate banking
business.’ They hope and believe that
we will not stop to consider that to
exact a dollar, which by various legis
lation they have made tat cost the
debtor twice as much labor anil double
the amount at produce as the one
promised, Is not ‘honest.’ They expect
the America® people to aooept ns true
tho statement that the money of the
constitution established by our fathers
Is dishonest for no other reason save
the diet of their illustrious accom
plices and plnst.c tools. They hope
that the people will 4gnar.iiutly con
found the sovereign prerogative and
tho boundon duty of tho governnictt
ta coin money and establish « system
of uniform weights and measures' with
tho business of loans and dlsronnts ln-
herently appropriate to the .locupatiotv
of the private cltlz.-n.
"They think that wo will forget that
the true question bi not ‘whether the
gavci-nmant shall go out of tlie banking
bustier),’ but Wh-thsr the banks shall
go out or thstgovernicg business. Thus
they design by the aid of public apa thy
to rivet the chains which will make
free men slaves.”
"To* the end that their hopes may
meet with disappointment apd their
conspiracy with failure, that the tott
ing masses of our people may be saved
f 1 ' 0 . 111 ., a 11 industrial serfdom more cruel
and degrading than chattel slavery,

people’s representatives who failed to

explained upon any other hypothesis.
"That the people~may come together
and take counsel of each other, it has
been deemed expedient to call together
a convention to assemble at Memphis
on the 12th and 13th days of June, 1835.
Every community, every city and

Berlin, May 26.—The return of the
emperor to Potsdam oo Friday from
bis season of deer stalking at l’roekel-
wltz caused the revival of last week’s
rumors that a cabinet crisis Is Immi
nent. It was understood, of course,
that whatever ministerial changes
might be Impending nothing could be
done while tlie emperor was away, but
since his return,.'reports aro rife that
Chiutoellor von ilobcnloho and Herr
von Koeller, Prussian minister of tlie
Interior, will soon bo displaced, Count
von Walldersee becoming chancellor.
With these changes, it Is reported that
the government will Inaugurate a. new
programme Involving a sharp repres
sion of public liberties against univer
sal suffrage. The reports, however,
arise solely from the general expecta
tion that something Is about to hap
pen umd the retirements and appoint
ments Indicated seem to be tUo most
likely of any, movement that the kaiser
would embark in as a measure of re
prisal for the defeat of the autl-revolu-
tlon bill.
The Vonvnerts, socialist, positively
affirms that Herr von Koeller’s retire
ment had been definitely decided- upon,
but within the official circle all these
rumors are declared to be at least pre
mature and probably erroneous.
The hunting trip of the emperor Old
not prevent him from dealing person
ally with public affairs, as it Is shown
that lie was constantly In friendly
communication with Chancellor von.
Hohenlolie, and this fact Impels the
latter’s entourage to ridicule the sto
ries of Mis Impending downfall. Tile
reports in regard to Herr von Koeller,
however, are based upon different
grounds from those forming tUe basts
of Prince Hohenlohe’s case, and tt Is
tho general opinion in well Informed
circles that Koeller: will not meet tile
lelchstau at the opening of the au
tumn session, in session. In tile ca
pacity of minister of foreign affairs.
Aard especially diplomatic circles lit
the emharay at Vienna have played an
engagement for the kaiser during Ills
absence, and Count von Eulenberg, the
German ambassador to Austria, was
summoned from Vienba to Proekel-
wltz, where' lie remained three clays
in consultation 'With the kaiser. It Is
said th» emperor was disagreeably
surprised with the appointment
Count Oolochowskt as Austrian prime
minister, and so expressed himself,
and It to also understood that tho as
surances of Emperor Francis Joseph
that the retirement of Count Kalno-
ky would not cause any altercation In
the relation of tlie parties to the drel-
hund has not had the effect to remove
tho official regret that: Count Golo-
chowskl Was named as Kalttoky’s suc
cessor.
Another new figure has made an ap
pearance In diplomatic clroles In the
person of Count Knpnist, the successor
of Prince Lobanoff-Rotowskl ns Rus
sian ambassador to Vienna, who pre
sented his credentials to Emperor
Francis Joseph on Friday. Count Kap-
nlst served eight years ns secretary of
the Russian embassy In Paris while
Count Ooloehowskl was.thore, and dur
ing that time they ..belonged to the
same social clique In the French capi
tal.
Count Kapnlst married the German
countess Htelnboch-Fermor, but this
alliance did not make him any more
pro-Oerman, as he was an ta stldll n
well-known supporter of the Russo-
Frcneh entente. Count von Eulenberg
will return to Vienna without delay,
and it Is said that he Is under Instruc
tions to closely watch the develop
ments arising from the recent diplo
matic changes.
Tho emperor's hag olf game at Proe-
kelwltz Included eighteen roo bucks.
