Ili-* Mack eye scans the political horizon to note the brewing of every storm, lie burrows in devious way ami is ever scurrying through the drains and sinks of the body politic. Xo depth is too low for him to dive to; no filth is foul enough to deter him. If taken unawares and obliged to decide without time to balance the chances, hi*, agony is painful to witness. When he appears the boldest his heart is shivering with dread. Tiie Rat flatters himself that he is sly and shrewd. There is, of course, necessary to the composition of such a being a certain amount of low cunning; alertness in deceit, and an ability to dodge about unobserved. But nature, which gives these qualities, adds an ofiensivenoss which discovers the odious animal, though out of sight. So, his loathsome j scheming is often without effect. He j finds his hole uncovered when thought to he most safe from observation. His ' reward is rarely up to the measure of his j desire. He is too odiotis to hope for an ! elective : ffice. All parties uiav use him j but none will trust hiu?. When dirty 1 work is to be done he is instinctively ! sought for, but when the spoils are divided he frequently gets only the kind of refuse usually left to his prototype. To get an office lie has to buy an apthen he" is so nnicn the creature of those above him and j upon whose favor he is dependent that . much of the profits are absorbed in keep- ! insr what cost him so much to vet. As the element of gratitude is no part of his character, so he expects nothing from that source in other.;. There ltein.tr in his opinion, but one motive to human ! action, to that he appeals in every time j of trouble and thus often finds his place I turn to dust and ashes in his hands. We have a political Hat in Beaufort. His history may be given at a future time. ?? THE "POWER* OF THE NEWS. "Ilohson's Choice polled about three hundred votes in Charleston county.

To the People of South Carolina : On the 5th of November the people of South Carolina, in common with the people of all the United States, will be called upon to elect a President and VicePresident to serve for the ensuing four years. The course that has been pursued by the present administration has been so subversive of all local self-government, and hostile to the rights and liberties of < the citizen, as to have excited the greatest apprehensions for the safety of our l'ree institutions, and has aroused the intelligent and Conservative masses of! the nation to a united and determined i ! effort to secure, if possible, tlie govern- r : uient from the hands of its prcseut audaj cious aud unscrupulous rulers, and bring 1 it back to its constitutional bearings. More than this?so alarming and widespread has been the growth of corrup: tion in high places as to have tainted all the fountains of public justice, and so j I reckless the use of corrupt instrumentalities by public officials as to undermine ; every principle of honor and honesty in the breast of the people, and prepare the way for the rapid and almost sure decay : of all public virtue. To arrest the spread of these evil and dangerous tendencies, and to save to the people the substance as well as form of a j constitutional republic, the citizens of all i classes aud parties have organized a holy, firm and indestructible alliance in behalf 1 of purity in government and sympathy I and reconciliation between sections. The cardinal principles of this movement were promulgated from Cincinnati on the first of last May, and* solemnly ratified by the Democracy of the whole Union in general convention 011 the 9th of July. Horace Greeley, of New York, and L?. Gratz Brown, of Missouri, chosen as the standard bearers of this cause, have been hailed with patriotic enthusiasm by the friends of ^w, order and ( I it 1:1 1 ? il i- * u~ ' wen reguiateu. nucny tmuuguvuo mo entire land. The principles which have been emblazoned upon our banner iu the hopeful words of our illustrious candidate cannot die, but must and will survive even defeat, if defeat were possible. South Carolina recognizing this as the only movement in the present crisis calculated to overthrow a monstrous centralization, and to secure to the present generation the blessings of a just and free government, has, through a convention of her people, recorded her adhesion and pledges her support to the movement. While we are not permitted to speak the language of assured victory to the-people in this state, it is, nevertheless, our solemn du?y to ad- ' jure them by their enlightened love of * country and their devotions to its in- ^ stitutioDs, to summon to their aid that ^ highi Ml r<>il,i|,iulc in mi'*., fidelity to principles even in the midst of disasler, and rallying, around our colors, ^ give to our candidates a manly, a gen- g erous and a united support. Animated by the foregoing senti- t ments, and profoundly sensible of the responsibility devolved upon them, and f to insure the action which is recom- , mended, the State central executive r committers of the Democratic and Lib- * eral Republican parties, after a joint t conference, have determined, under the auspices of the undersigned represent- ^ ng this State in the national executive j committees of the two nnrties. to nre ? r , ^ seut to the people of South Carolina v and invoke their suffrages for the fol- ! ? s lowing ticket of electors: .
