It is always best to look tjpw. the shi ning aspect of things,- anTwot worry one’s self in torturing a\'wj look, gen ture, and expression into a preconceived notion,, and converting an imaginary grievance into a real trot^jk. There is an unhappy fancy in stMtie people to parade themselves as itijtr|cd and long- suffering individuals ; as patient martyrs, and unostentatious victims of the negldct and indifference of others.

I’ll slip off home, so I started, aud when I got into the big road to Blackville I hung dowu nijj bead and began to think., over bow much fighting It would take to kill all the Democrats la South Car olina and the lost vestige, and how much land it would take to bury them, and the vestige to boot.

Now you see I was so mad to think that these fel lows would halloo for their side that I knew it would never do for me to meet them, as mad ne I was, so I turned out and would have stopped on the side of the road, but knowing my temper so well I feared if I did not get off far enough, so that I could not seo them, I might hurt si-moof them, so I went about 300 yards further and hid.

C. wye-lj - , - S?.'/•;>' ~ i- A terrible story of famine and pes tilence in Brazil is told .by a corres pendent at Rio de Janeiro. There baa been bo rain for two years in a district as large as New England, the Middle Atlantic States, West Virginia, Ohio and Indiana combined, so that tbe wells and water courses are dry, and tbe cattle, which the herdsmen and plauteis of that region keep iu vast herds, have died of thirst. Worse than that, the people, perishing from lack of food and water, have fled into tbe streets of the cities f6r the scanty government rations, quintupling the population. There they have rotted Massey, colored Democrat, in tbe breast, aud at last accounts be was dying. Mossy’s offence was that he had declared himself in favor of the Democratic candidates. To cap the climax, the Republican clubs throughout Barnwell have re solved that tbe colored men voting the Democratic ticket shall be ostra cised by his fellows, expelled from their churches, stiff-red to die without the attendance of his nearest and dear est relatives, and must be burled by the hands of Democrats, if burled at all. Scores of similar Instances of intimi dation, beating and wounding, where .colored Democrats wete the victims, can be readily given, ~ Our only object is to Remind the public again that there are two sides to the outrage business. The experience of the pres ent canvas^ confirms fully the experi ence ot the lust. White men are Inca pable, under the severest provo cation, of the brutality which the negroes ‘ display in dealing with those of their own color who join the Democratic party, and are treated as traitors to their race. nH.
