Attorney tieneral Youmans, of South Car j ollna. Makes abatement and Denies the Kepublican Versions of the i -. Jliacultles. . j -T :. Wivshitigton Pent Oct. 25. j Judgt? LF. Youmans, Attorney Gene ral of South Carolina, arrived in the citv yesterday, morning and during the day call ed at tbe,"Vhite ilouse. The object of his vfsjt was to refute the slanders the Smalls Lee gang of copper colored, conspirators have entertained the administration with. Jle had ah interview with Mr. Hayes, and thq condition of .affairs in SoutK Carolina tvas' thoroughly discussed. General .Yon. tnans declared that the stories of "outrages" in his.State was entirely without founda tion,' and had been started and circulatt d by designing - persons for political effect. fSverjf perspnat difficulty growing out of the ijolitical. canvass or .arising from other causes is magnified into a political outrage by persons who are or hope to be personally lenefited by this poliiy. The democrats are conducting a vigorous canvass, Gen. You knans said, and. are endeavoring by reason pnd argument to convince the colored peo ple that Uieir interests are necessarily the Ssame a9 those of .the white citizens, and Jthat' they - should join with the latter in Selecting good and competent men to of jce.:' .'$,11 though the -State Democratic speakers ha-e' invited their opponents to jnieqt ' them in joint discussion, and have jasked' the Republican speakers to diviUe timjGitlt , them at their meetings. The roass Jf .he 'colored people, have been anxi louss toriicar both sides ofthe, .question , at issue, andull-ofj tjie. respectable leaders of that party have accepted the- proposition ;for joint discussion ; but a sinaH clique:of designing . Radicals, consisting of Smalls, jSwails Lee, llainey and a few others who ! feared the effect of fair and open discus sion, objected to Democrats addressing col ored meetings, and have sought to prevent it. . In the palmy days of carpet-bainsm these .men figured am'onsr the most un scrupulous knaveswho robbed the State, "and some of them have been branded bv ; the courts as common felons. They are tj now seeking to play the same game which c xoia witn sucn eitect 111 tormer years ; they raise -ine cry ot oppression and outragef upon the colored people, and spread )des broadcast through the country to make political capital. General Youmans said some of these men had rendered them selves personally obnoxious in certain locali ties, and that in two or three places diffi culties had occurred, but they were not more frequent or of greater magnitude in South. Carolina, than occur during a heated polit cal campaign in any Northern State. He called Mjv Hayes' attention to the fact that - &h fie i ' Speaker Randall was ad dressing a political meeting in Phifadel phia the night before, some person 4n the audience threw a stone at him, which bare ly missed his head, and would have proved fatal had it struck him. If that had oc curred with a Republican speaker in South Carolina, General Youmans pointedly re marked, it would have furnished material for the most diabolical political outrage that had been perpetrated during the campaign. The most trivial personal difficulties! in South Carolina are enlarged, exaggerated and -embellished and sent abroad' as evi dence of oppression. lie contended that South Carolina is as pfacable as any State :n j .the Union, and that the laws are; as rigidly enforced there as anywhere. Gov ernor Hampton his executed the laws jm- Eartially ever since his inauguration, and, ejwill continue to do so. The courts of th State are in operation, and with com plete power and. jurisdiction, and all of fences against the laws will lie punfsV-d regardls of the political status rf the offenders. , j General Youmaus detailed the circuro Uinccs connected with-he diOiculties; in St mter and Williamsburg conntien, and shewed that personal and wt political feei ng had been the chief cause of the trtu- blp. He proved conclnsi-cly that all the i sUries of outrages have originated with a feivv desipning men who are candidate jTr j office and hope to hold the colored roUi by cn-ating ill feeling "between the whites and j blacks. !

C, Oct. 21, 1878, , To Hon. J. d. S. Bkirlburn, Chairman Congressional Deviorratie Committee, Washington. IK C: j , : Dear Sir : At a meeting of the State . Democratic rxeculive Committee to-day a resolution was adopted instructing me to communicate with you and place you in possession of the true conditiou tf the present political campaign in this State, und thereby enable you. -to refute the sen- ( patioual reports which may be circulajed f for campaign purposes by cunning and dg- signing men of the opposite party. I affirm, without fear of successful contradiction, ; that never has a political campaign been conducted in any State with less excite- ment, more thorough good order or ob servance of lawful means than the present one in South Carolina. Vi e have offered to divide time (which is synonymous in other States with joint discussions) with the Republicans, and they, in most in stances, have willingly done the. same with our own speakers. No public disturbances have occurred anywhere in the State, and if personal difficulties, such as have been reported in the "counties of Sumter and AVilJiamsburg, have happened, legal reme dies' haye been and can -be had. And the parties who- assert to the contrary, or would manufacture political sen timent or sympathy are guilty of falsehoods and are doyig. the latter for a purpose. 'The condition of this Slate! is healthful and eminently pacific. Law j is enforced, good will exists among all classes of our people, save when a republican arch-conspirator seeks to disturb it for his own seltish purposes, and m those instances nothing more results than an occasional personal difficulty. We do not seek to abridge freedom of speech or action nori is there any disposition to do wrong to those opposed to us politically, and the misera ble insinuation or charge that Governor Hanrpton is responsible for any disturb ance which might occur in this State is as absurd as it is untrue. He has held the reins of government impartially and justly, and, as the Executive of the State, it j is not his prerogative nor duty to turn con stable. With' the Court in full operation and able and conscientious judges to pre side, every citizen has his remedy' We rejoice in the gains of the democratic party in the West; and hope iri our elections to swell the triumph of that grand old party in whose success is involved the hopes jof all lovers of constitutional government.- j 1 am very truly and respectfully yonr obedi ent servant, J.

Washington, Oct. 27. The refrain of the bloody shirt has been taken, up with great vigor by the radical press and speak ers, and from now until Tuesday week the cry -will be unceasing. In 1874 a regular "outrage mill" was set up in the Depart rment of Justice, and outrages were manu factured by the cord and dispatched from here all over the country. - The answer to this infamous Style of party tactics was a nearly two-thirds democratic majority in the House of Representatives. . ."While' the present Attorney General is a man of too high character to permit his department to be put to such uses as in 1874, he is evidently disposed to attach more im portance to the new series of Southern outrage fictions than he would be if he did not hope that by some way it niay help to save his own State, of Massachusetts from-the election of But ler .as Governor by consolidating the Re publican masses in support of the regular. Republican candidates. It is noticeable that the identical agencies from here that circulated the miserable stuff with which the wires were loaded down in 1874 are employed in the same business now. The outrage business had a very long and suc cessful run, but it is now dead and buried, and cannot be resnscitated. It enabled the Republicans two or three times to save the House.of Representatives, when, otherwise it would have been lost to them,-but the people have seen through the trick and it cannot be played oft them any longer. A very prominent New York Republican," just arrived here, and who has been very active in the campaign in that State, says that the revival of the calumnies against the South, the purpose of it being so undis guised, has created such a sentiment of disgust that it will lose) instead of gaining votes for the Republicans. 1 The Lost Steamship City of Houston. ! Capt. Spicer, superintendent of the Mal lory line, received a dispatch at New York Sunday from Capt. Stevens, commander of the steamer City of Houston; lost during the storm of Tuesday night and Wednes day last, saying that the leak commenced around the stuffing box, which was finally stopped, but the water still gained from some unknown cause. The firse were all out at fifteen minutes past midnight. They used the donkey boiler till the pumps stopped at S a. m.. when there was ten feet of water in the after part of the ship. Capt Spicer said that the passengers would be brought back to New York by the Savan nah and Charleston line, and would be for warded to thir destination in the steamer State of Texas, which will leave New York next Wednesday. The City of HousUn was one of the finest boats on the line, and was valued at about. $200,000. She was insured for about tw'o-thirds of her value in European companies. MVSPAPER OPINION.

TO TUT: J)i:MOCRATW-COySKRVA- TTVE r ARTY OF NORTH L'ARO- j . L!.A. j The Statu Executive Committee congratu lates Uie Democratic-Conservative party of .-North Carolina upon the result of the recent tmerefsionul elections at the North. These elections ciearly indicate three things whtyh aire of consequence to us : First, that the peo plf! oC this country arft dissatisfied with the licptiblicjiu party an.! are unwilling lor the Kepublicm leaders to afflict us longer with their ruinous measures and fraudulent prac tices. Secoud, that the Nationals do not meet with popular favor, and, as a separate organi zafion, have utterly failed to impress them selves ujon the country ; und lastly, that the sWr of the Democratic party is still in the ascendant, and the people are looking to that party as the only one capable of restoring profcperity to the-country, and'ablt to admin ister the government oi those Constitutional and just principles, which are essential alike to the happiness of our citizens and to the perpetuity of our institutions. Thus in the elections held in eight States the Republicans have lost twelv members of Congress; the Nationals have elected lour; and the Demo crats have elected twenty-three, and have gained seven. These facts demonstrate thati the peopl.e in tend to invest the Democratic party with the full control of the National Government. The ; Senate of the next Congress will be Democratic by a considerable majority, and it is only neecssary for the Democrats of the South to remain steadfast iu their allegiance to our or- ; gaiiization, and our triumph will be complete. It is for us to determine whether the banner on which are inscribed Reconciliation, Home 1 Rule and Financial Reform, shall trail in the ; dustor thill be borne on to. victory. j j Every consideration of interest, ol policy. 1 and of patriotism then urges us to prepare ; immesiately for the approaching political struggle. Be assured, fellow-citizens, that without preparation, it will be impossible to achieve success.. Let us i.ot by our apathy, our luke warm ness and indifference postpone the accession to power of that party which alone tas been able ttMHieck Republican corruption and to arrest ttie progress of oer government towards a centralized despotism. , Lot us be steadfast in our devotion to prin ciple, true to our organization and endeavor by every means to discountenance those inde pendents ;and disorganizes -who oppose our worthy standard-bearers freely and fairly' chosen by the Democratic party in Convention assembled. In particular do we desire to repeat what we have so often urged the necessity of thorough local organization. It is the town shp committees who are charged with the most important of all party duties. To them is committed the duty of supervising the election; and of devising means to bring out every Democratic voter to the polls. They ought to meet frequently and advise and take equnsel together how best to promote the for iuneg of that party, on whose success depends 60 largely the prosperity of themselves and of their posterity. In everjr township," in every neighborhood, there ought to be HpjxMnted a committee of active, efficient, and prudent party men, who will undertake to set- that every Democrat in the precinct comes to the polls and casts his ballot for our nomlneee. We therefore urge ,this upon the township committees; and if in any township it is ne glected, we appeal to our Democratic, friends there to send their conveyances for all their neighbors who otherwise might not attend the polls. Let it be clearly understood iu every locali ty that lie who fails to vote for our nominee, gives half a vote to the Republican party, and that the Conservative who casts his vote for an independent is taking the surest means to break up and destroy the oidy party which can give relief to our afflicted couutVy. We warn our fellow-citizens that great ends eau jiot be accomplished except at the cost of some "inconvenience, and often through the sacrilice of Our perscial preferences : and wc appeal to every man who has the good of the people at heart to give a .portion of one day to his country, and subordinating his individual ' preferences, cast his ballot for the noaiiuec of the Conservative party.
