It still leaves it 1 dependent with the Radical party, and ' ot all hopes that is tho least. Does General Kershaw, or any one else, for , a moment, think that patriotism and ; the good of the country can rise above party and plunder with the Radicals in this State? The truth is, there are not half a dozen men of influence in the party who really desire reform. Every assertion of a desire for reform they make is wholly at variance with their actions, and only intended to decieve the ignorant of the party. Camdhn, S. O., July 27, 1874. My 1)kau Sin?Your valued favor of the 11th inst is before me for reply. I have arrived at certain conclusions in my own mind in regard to the matter upon which you desire th'e expression of my opinions, and give them for what they may be worth. The restoration of an honest, economical and competent government to South Carolina at this juncture I consider the paramount duty of her citizens. Such mean* and such sacrifices, consistent with honor, must be resorted to as m:iy bo found necessary, practicable and expedient to accomplish that end. With us it is no longer a question of Republicanism and Democracy. The struggle is for and honest government under which we can live and prosper. In comparison with that, party distinction should go for nothing. Seeking no political triumph, but simply the substitution of an honest and responsible government for the horde of plunderers who hare robbed and degraded the State, and thrown her back at least twenty years m the march of improvement, we are entitled to the sympathy and support ol every right thinking man, whatever he his political opinions. A better feeling pervades the whole , country. It is a great pleasure to note the steady growth of more kindly , sentiment and feeling towards the South on the part of the North. In act and utterance we should at all times cordially reciprocate the generous and friendly overtures held out to us so frequently of late by the Northern people and press, without distinction of party, and especially by the officers and soldiers of the Union armies, whose magnanimous and soldierly conduct in honoring the memory of their fallen foemen, 011 many recent occasions, is the besl pledge yet offered of a restored, happy and united Americanism. I am sure that 111 our effort to rescue the State we :n 1 .A.? -.? 1 .1. Will JlikVU WiU O'JlUIill Blip|)UrV Ol 1(11! public opinion and press of the North; but move important, because more immediate than these, the aid of tho Federal Executive. President Grant can do more for the speedy restoration of the State than all other influences from without; and although I have no political information other than such as is common to all having access to tho papers of the day, still, from tho perusal of these, I entertain strong hopes he will not withhold his great influence from so good a work. There is no overt hostility to his administration in any part of the South; certainly none of any sort in au organized torm ot tins State. On the contrary, the conservative element look to him as their chief, if not only hope of good government. Congress has been appealed to, and is powerless to remedy the evils under which wo sutler. The judiciary can afford no relief, for it has no jurisdiction. The Executive alone can constitutionally and legally assist us. It would be the crowning glory of Gen. Grant's administration to effect a reconstruction, and restore to the plundered and ruined States ot the South the blessings of good government, and the opportunity to enjoy and to conlributo to the future prosperity of .An Irulopen WAYIiOllO, S. C., SA die country. I etui not think Unit ho will he indifferent, an<l 1 know how ratelully his aid would ho appreciated hv our sutlering South Carolinians. . . , I dould lie b? brought, face to face with ; the monstrous evils which degrade rind )ppress us, nothing could prevent him from employing every prerogative ot lis vast power to crush them out lor3 Vol*. After all, however, our reli-jf depends mostly upon our own people. Let them organize and consolidate all lionest men who can rise above unworlh prejudices and party slavery, Lo rescue the State from anarchy, ruin, ind, in the end, a bloody despair. Respecting the republican principles of the colored citizens, we should earnestly seek their co-operation in the movement. The State has been plunged into this ruin by the rapacity and dishonesty of their trusted leaders, who have brought shame and obloquy up 011 the party, whoso honor and interests were in their keeping, and trampled upon every right and interest of the whole people in their insatiate greed for plunder. They owe the State some reparation for the past, and we surely may hope that there are some thousands having sufficient lionnat i- iii11>11iifmif.n niwl lint riot imn? l.n -) I ~ join the line and cry against the robber band. Not many would be required, for the true majority of the Radicals has always been exaggerated. The whites have never been lullv polled since the war, and the ballot has never been lree from frauds. To secure su< h co-operation the honest colored people should be invited to a full share ol all public office. Power entrusted to us shornl be administered without favor or prejudice, so as to secure the best interests of the whole people, protect equally in the enjoyment of his just rights every citizen, however high or bumble, and promote the welfare of all alike, so far as may come within the legitimate sphere of government. Upon such principles only can harmony and good government be secured in the present state of society here. Oo-operation of this good work would lead to mut ual dependence, respect and good will, and tend more to the elevation and development of the colored people than all other possible expedients. I consider these views worth pondering at this lime with reference to the taxpayers' movement and the promised reform in the Republican party. Of courso tho policy of the people can only be settled by conventions of their authorized representatives, but it is well to take conscl together and to interchange views ben n forehand, in order that the public mind may settle down upon such measures as may be approved after due consideration. I firmly believe iho hour of deliverance is at band, if we but be true to ourselves. Indeed, the crisis does not admit the thought of lauiliv. success is h necessity; lunurc in <1 , ami disgrace to the; Commonweal lit. 1 need not say to you that I do not presume to dictate a policy, and consider my opinions of much less importance than you seem to attribute to them; such as they are they are heartily at your service. Very truly yours, J. 1>, Krhsiiaw. The Conscrvativo ( anvass. [News and Courier.] MajorT. W. Woodward, of Friendtield, declines to be a candidate for the Conservative nomination for Governor. He says that "the coming candidate of the honest people of Carolina should possess several attributes in which I am deficient. Me should bo a man who has heretofore been exceedingly prudent, not only in his actions, but in his utterances, so that neither word nor deed could be distorted into an unfriendly interpretation towards the rights ol the negro freedmen, thereby atlbrding a pretext for opposition n.t. tho noils. lit; should ho an indi vidual of enlarged, yet conservative ideas of statesmanship, and of national reputation, so that the Administration at Washington would not bo sustained by the Northern press in going back upon its recent manifestations in our behalf, lie should, in fine, be possessed of all those noblo qualities ot head and heart, which endear one to his iriends and make him an object of respectful admiration even to Li lout Journal.

(?o\e/nur Moses at Suiutei. I From t.lii! News and Cornier.] 'There is some regard lor the eternal fitness ol things in selecting the town of Sumter as the plnee w here the pros- | out (iovenior ol South t 'arolina should appear hefore his colored constituents and give them an aoeounl ot his stewardship, It was at Sumter, in Charlcston Harbor, that Capt. K, .1. Moses, dr., nide-dc-eainp of Cover nor 1 'ickins, hauled down the United Stales Hag, which had tlonlcd over the heads ot Anderson and his gallant men; and it was within sight ot the battlements <d" the Fort that the sa ne ('apt. Mom's proved his appreeiat ion of the value ol discretion, that "hotter pail" which brave soldiers randy choose. When the Confederate Hag was furled forever, Capt. Moses returned to his home in the town ol Sumter. It was there t hat he avowed his conversion to t he doettines of South Carolina Kcpuldicanism, and it was the negroes ol Sumter county who elected him to the Legislature, enabled him to become Speaker of the House, and so allowed him to secure his nomination and election as Coventor oft he State. And so it happens now tlmt the name of the battle-scarred fort and ot the thriving inland town are linked with the name of him who is known, throughout the land, as "The Uohher Covenier." 'I he l'yramid ol Cheops has served to proclaim thecentuiies the peculiar excellence of the Knglish Warren's Slack ing, and Fort Sui!it?t is known ns tinscene oI t! 10 oxpioits ol (Iovm u<?r Muse,ere, with him, the process <>l blackening begun. I>eforc Sumter eyes :nnl to Sumter cars Governor Moses, on Saturday, pronounced an eulogy ol Moses, and strove to dejend himsell .against some ol the charges ?>( which he is already convicted helotc an American people. Tlte strong point iit the set, speech, which is inordinately long, is the demonstration that the expenditures of the Moses aduiinistrat ion are less than the expenditures ol the Scott administration wete. ll this were line it, would only place Governor Moses in the position ol the girl w ho confessed that site stole the pip:, ami ple.'ided, in extenuation ol the crime, that the pig was a very little one. I>ut it is not the fact. Governor Moses lorgets to say that the Legislature of 1^7'$--74 spent #.MO,000 more than their expected income, and authorized the issue ol certificates ol indebtedness to make good the deficiency, and that il, as expected, the property on which taxes fire actually collected amounts to only $140,000,000, theie will he a deficiency lor the next fiscal year of about #515,000. The making of a tax levy lor specific purposes was a measure ol reform, as it prevents the diversion ol money to other purposes than those for which it was collected. lleyond this wo know ol no practical measure of reform which the administration ol Governor Moses has effected. It is true that the gross amount oi the public debt was reduced from #10,000,000 to $10,000,000; but this reduction was effected by repudiating in 1073-71 the six million dollars oi con version bonds which the Radical Financial Foard (with Chamberlain as the prime mover) issued a couple ol years before. Il is true that an Act of Assembly was li'lslMI'll II) fllllil I lif!

J bit if Governor Moses cannot make any very brilliant display ol good work done by bini us the Executive of the State, be can, and does, lay bare the transactions of Scott, Chamberlain, I'arker and Kimpton. And, in bo doing, lie, while protesting {licit li/i It no n/t oncli nin?i?Au/? lliciv I I \J litto III/ n \?
