say and he will be endorsed by every
sesible man in the country:.
Executive Mansion,
: Columbia, Dec. 23, 1870. , -
My Deak Sib: 1 have the honor to
enclose a copy of my inaugural, as the
duly elected Governor of &outh Carolina.
In view of the" present "events and- the
official sanction given to gross misrepre
sentations of the acts and purposes of the
majority of the good people of this com
monwealth, 1 deem it proper xo declare
that profound peace prevails thoughout the
State ; that the course of judicial proceed
ings is obstruted by no combination of
citizens thereof, and that the laws tor the
protection "of the inhabitants in 'all their
right? of person, property and citizenship
are. being eul'orced-iii our courts. While
thcpeople of this State are not . wanting
either in the spirit or means to maintain
the rights of citizeushjpjagainst the. usurp
etlg power which new defies the supreme
judicial authority of the State, they have
such faith in the justice of their caiise (hat
they propose to leave its vindication to the
proper legal tribunals, appealing at the
same time'to the patriotism and public
sentiment of the whole country'.
The inflammatory utterances of a por
tion of the public press render it perhaps
. not inopportune far mp to state : tnat, . al
though tne people ot boutii Carolina v-iew
with grave concern the present critical con
juncture in the . affairs of our country,
which threatens to subject to an extreme
test the Republican system- of goverment
itself, it is.their firm and deliberate pur
pesa to condemn any solution of existing
political problems tatiqyojves tne exhibi
tion of armed fqrcQ,or tjaat rnoves through
any other channel than the ' prescribed
form of the Constitution, or the peaceful
agencies of the law,
,1 rusting thjt a 'olntjon may pp hap;
which, while maintaining the peace of the
country, shall do no violence to the con
stitutio'nai safeguards oHjpular rights,
and will teud still more firmly to unite
the people of. all the States in an earnest
effort to i resc ve thi pcac Jmd sustain the
laws and the Constitution, l ain, very re
