Mhl official duties it Washington have enabled in to bo come fully acqr minted with the actions end d?-4gne of thoeo who control the Radical party, and we feel called tipou to utter a few word* of warning against the alarming atiidea tbey have made towards the centralisation of power in ik. k.n/l. t\i- ? ?-- ? M-uua us wu^icn Mil tUO DIMUlire. The lime end attention of the lUdical leader* have been almost wholly directed to devising such legislation a* will, in their view, best preserve their ascendancy,, and no- regard for the wise restraint* imposed by the Constitution has checked tUeir reckless and desper ate career. The President of the United States has been formally announced as a candi late for re election. The dvclar aliens of his selfish supporters have been echoed by a subsidised press, and the dhciplme of party has already made adhesion to bis personal fortunes ths supreme test of political fealty. The partisan legislation to which we refer was decreed and shaped in secret caucus, wheie the extremeat counsels always dominated, and was adopted by a subservient majority, if not with the intent, certainly with the effect to place iu the hands of the President power to commaud his own renomiisNtton, and to employ the a?my, navy and militia, at hia sole discretion, as a means of subserving his personal ambition. When the sad experience of the last two years, so disappointing to the hopes and gen erous confidence of lire corrntry, r* con Milered, in connection with the violent utterances and- ra*h purposes of those who control? the President's policy, it is not strep iaittg that the gravest apprclien sion* for the future peace of the nation should be entertained. At n tune when labor la depressed, and every material interest is palsied by oppressive taxation, the public offices have been multiplied bevond all precedent to serve as instruments in the per pe'uation of power. Partisanship is the onlv test Applied to the distribution of this vast patronage. Honesty, fitness and cporr.l worth are openly discarded in favor of truckling submission and dis honorable compliance; hence enormous defalcationb nnd wide spread corruption have followed as the natural conse* quencea of this pernicious system. By the official report of the Secretary of the Treasury, it appears that after the de duction of nil proper credits, many mil lions of dollars remain from ea-collec tors of (be interna! revenue, and that no proper diligence has ever been used to collect tbem. Reforms rn the revenue and1 fiscal" systems, which all e*j>e? rience demonstrates to be necessary to a frugal administration of the Government, as well as a measure of relief to an over burdened people, have been per aistently postponed or wilfully neglected. Congress now adjourns without having even attempted to reduce taxa lion, or to repeal the glaring impositions by which industry is crushed and impoverished. The treasury is over flowing, and an excess of $80 000,000 of revenue is admitted ; ar*d yet, instead of some measure of present relief, a bar ren and delusive resolution is' passed by lt)6 Senate to consider the tariff and excise systems hereafter, as if the history of broken pledges and pretended remedies furnished any better assurnuce for future legislation than experience has done in the past. Ship building and the carrying trade, nee sources of national pride and prosperity, now languish under a crushing load of taxation', and nearly every other business interest ia struggling without profit to maintain itse'ft Our agriculturists, while paying Heavy taxes on all they consume, either to- the Government or to monopolists find the prices for their own producisso reduced that honest labor is denied its just reward, and rndfcisCry is prostrated bv invidious dixcrimtnaffirHh Nearly 200.000.000 acres of public lands, which should have been reserved for the benefit of the people, have been voted away to giant corporations, neg lecting our soldiers and eniiching n handful of greedy speculators ar.d lob* byixta who are thereby enabled lo exercise a moat dangerous and corrupting influence over State and Federal legis* lion If the career of these conspirators be not checked, the downfall of fiee government ia inevitable, and with it the elevation of a military dictator on the ruins of the republic. Under pretense of pausing laws to enforce the fourteenth amendment, and for other purposes. Congress bao confer red the most despotic powers upon the Executive, and provided nn official ma? chinery, by which the liberties of the people are menaced and the aaered right of local* -elf* government in the State is ignored, if not lyrauioally overthrown. Modeled* up to the sedition laws, so odious io' history, tbey are at variance with ; all the sanctified theories of our iostilo tiona. .

V - - MVJ'VW >V> IVUIVW IU IU? tlllUli good sense, the " sober second thought,'" of the American people. We call upon them to bh true to themselves and to their; poet, and, disregarding party names and minor differences, to insist upon a decent equalisation of power, the restriction of Federal authority within its just and proper limits, leaYing to*the States that control over do* mestic affaire which is essential to their happiness, and- tranquility, and good government. Everything that Malicious ingenuity could suggest has been done to irritate the people of the Middle and Southern Stale*. Gross and exaggerated charges of disorder and violence owe their ori gin to the mischievous minds of potential managers in the Senate and House of Representatives, to which the Executive baa, we regret to say, lent his aid, and thus helped to inflame the popular feeling. In all this course of hostile legislation and har.-h resentment, no word of conciliation, of kind encourage men! or fraternal feeling has ever been spoken by the President or Conbi*i? to the people of (be Southern States.? They have be:n addressed only :n the language of proscription- We earnestly entreat our fellow citizens, in all parts of the Union, to spare no efforts to maintain peace and order ; to careful ly protect the rights of eveiy citizen ; to pre?eive kindly relations among all men, and to discountenance and discourage any violation of the rights of any portion of the people secured under the Constitution or ahy of its amend ments; and in conclusion, we earnestly beg of you not to give aid to the present attempta of Radical partisans to stir np strife in the land ; to renew the is sues of war, or to obstruct the return of peace and prosperity to the Southern Stales, because it is thus that they seek to divert the attention of the country from the corruption and extravagance in their administration of public affairs and the dangerous and profligate at tempt they are making towards the creation of centralized military govern ment. In five years of peace following the war the Radical administrations have ezpetided $1,200,000,000 for ordinary purposes alone, being within $200,* 000.000 of the aggregate amount spent for the name purpouse in war and in peace duiing the seventy one years preceeding June 30, 1801, not includ* ing in either ease the sum paid upon principal or interest of the public debt. It is triflicg with the intelligence of the people for the Radical leaders to pre* tend that this vast sura has been honestly expended. Hundreds of millions of it have been wantonly squandered. The expenditures of the government for the fiscal pear ending June 30, 1801. were only $92,000,000, while for precisely the same purposes?civil li?t< m my i navy, |i?llitiun HHU inClMDS ? 1164,000,000 were expended dining the fiscal year ending June 30, 1870. No indignation can be too stem and no scorn too severe for the assertions by unscrupulous Radical Itadeis that the great Democratic and conservative par ty of the U?ion has or can have sympathy with disorders or violence in any part of the country, or in the deprivation of any man of bis rights under the Constitution. It is to protect and per* potuate the rights which every fieeman chert-he* ; to revive in all hearts the feel ir.g of friendship, affection and harmony which are the best guaianteea of law and order, and to throw around the humblest citizen, wherever be may be, the protecting aegis of these safegards of personal liberty which the fundamental laws of the land assure, that we invoke the aid of all good men in the work of peaoe and reconciliation. We invite their generous co operation, irrespective of all former differences of opinion, so lliul t lia It*raK ttniao a/ ?? ? vm ? vivu vi uiawiU lllftj l/C relieved, that a new and dangerous see tionnl agitation may be checked ; thai the burdens of taxation, direct or indirect, may be reduced to the lowest point oonsistent with good faith to every juet national obligation, and with a strict))' economical administration of the Qovernment; and that the States may be restored in their integrity and true re lalions to our Federni Union.

The Eturfirh people, in many way*, how vnjtri more attach mant to liberty, and much more jealousy for the rights and interest of the common people than the present population of the United States. They seem to base more capacity for self-government than the masses in this country, who appear to have lost all of the spirit of 1770, that was really derived from our English ancestors, who were the defendors of Magna Charta, and were the introducers of the liberty writ of Hab<a* Corput, that the American Congress put it into the hands of General Grant the power to euspeod and to destroy when and where he pleases. There is a more slavish subserviency to power in the United States than in Engand. We were led to these remarks by Ka hawfa lira* \>a ITnetlLk aniatLl wet I IU? ucnn llink IllW ^u^iirii uiimivii^ have been foreed to withdraw the proposition to tax Lucifer matches on ao connl of Urge popular demonstrations against it. Lucifer matches are now among the uecessities of the masses, and although the cost is small, a tax, in the course of the year, would amount to considerable to a poor* family, as we find it in this country. In lieu of the proposed tax on Lucifnr matches, Mr. Gladstonk proposes to add two pence on the pound to the Income Tax.? Thus the English reverse the order of things as they are in Amerca; they consider the poor and the middling classes, and increase the tax on the in comes of the wealthy. We never hear of a popular meeting in the United States to protest against the high taxes of Congress, or to pro (est against any particular tax as In En gland. Our people are a mere flock of geese before the foxes, who speculate in politics and Government j?bs. It is true, vague promises of reduction are made by Congress, and the largo eity newspapers do oppose the particular tax (lint ought to be kept up in the United States, tbe Income Tax, and the coun? try press mostly, even in the South, which represents the interests of tbe masses, who pay no Income Tax, blindly acquiere in what the New York Her aid and Tribune and Courier, etc., etc, say against 44 the odious income lax,M and frequently re publish some of their absurd objections which only go to show that the tax is not strictly enforced as it ought to be, fiom the neglect or corruption of the officials. The true policy is to increase the Income Tax according to the expenditures ot the nation. and strictly enforce it, and then, and not till then, will you get the money power on the side of honest ecouom Itni ^UTCIUIUCUli CoogTMi Has Adjourned?Ku Kluz Bill FuMd-Amneitj Bejected. Congress baa adjourned, having passed I ho Ku Klux Bill pretty much as it passed the House. The Senate, by a party decision, refused to consider the House Amnesty Bill. We suppose they were influenced by the Southern Radical and carpet- bag Senators, who are afraid they would have to compete with decent men for their'seats if they permitted the large class of respectable citizens of tho South now disfranchised j to enjoy the rights of citizens of the Uuited States as well as the negroes and interlopers from the North. Our South Carolina Senators behaved like gentlemen and patriots, in advocating the bill removing disabilities, and Senator Robkrtson actually voted against the Ku Klux Bill, regarding it, as did I 1! .! ! l .

On Monday. evening of this week, negro named Edward Srcad, said to bo some what intoxicated, went to the store of Mr, U. O. Mark, H? this placef and asked for oar t rid gee for his pistol.

Several other negroe have been arrested for their inteiferenoe, and the Court, being in session, yesterday true bills were found against tbem by the Grand Jury. Snbad will be tried this week for assault with intent to murder, and five or six others for their offence in resisting the arrest and rescuing the prisoner from the marshals. The most deplorable part of the affair remains to be told. A negro named Ikk Robs, was one of the party who interfered to rescue Snbad, and Mr. Tuoma8 Saxon, a white man. who had been summoned as one of the posse to' arrest the rioters, baring pursued Ikk into the store of Mr. Wit. Jenninos to arrest bim, the fellow picked up a brick, and with it struck Saxon on the bend, fracturing the skull ; be has been lying, it is feared, since, in a dying condition. Ross was arrested and lodged in jail To-day Saxon is reported to be some better. This is a strange occurrence for Green* ill?. Our County has been always, since the war, one of the most peaceful communities in the United States, and we trust '.be dealings of the law with the present offenders will at once check lawlessness on the part of the evil disposed blacks, who, in this matter are wholly to blame. Public Meeting on Bales-Day. The Secret-nry of the meeting held here on sales day, has furnished us with the following abstract of the proceed ings : At a meeting of the citizens of Greenville County, at Greenville C. II, Gov.
