EDGARD MCCRAD Jr.,"to one of the Democratic Clubs-' Charleston, and commend them to tl attention of the readers of the Advc jhcr :. . f . Then, fellow-citizens, . I would sa*1 having exhausted argument and accep ed the issue of force, let. us abide D 'the result and submit to the powci that be. Submit, but never cringi Submit with truth and dignity. Hoi; .estly obey all laws, imposed upon u? however distasteful, not blindly, bn reasonably questioning them when nc ccssary in every Court allowed by them but when ascertained, submitting t them without murmur and withou complaint. About national affairs, le us have as little to say as possible, ant particularly about the negro; let u leave to the Republicans to decide tin grave questions they have raised. Ti the negro let us be truthful and honest making no promises and asking no fa vors. With the result of the coming elec tion, however it may eventuate, the greatest of our difficulties upon th< subject of the negro will, I am persua ded, subside, if Ave will only let thc subject drop ; nay, more, prevent thu renewal of its agitation by refusing tc discuss it. I have been taunted with.being afraid of the negro. Because I have ? instantIv been willing- to yield any point, rathet than ;illow the negro the privilege, pi the Radicals, the advantage* of a col lision between.us. Ic is ono of the first and soundest maxims of warfare, wheth er politicfir-or miKtary, to avoid doing that which your adversary desires von to,do, and to ascertain what he desirea is one of the first subjects which en gages the attention Of ? skillful leader. But vre have not to seek our adversary's trishes: his wish is obvious, and that is i collision of races, and with ray will iie shan't have it. Rut I hm not afraid "hat the negro will'ever rule this eoun :ry, even under Grant and the Recon struction Acts. And here-let us. avoid a danger into ivhic'h we are allowing ourselves skill fully to be pushed by our enemies, and :hat is of.admitting an enmity to exist Dctwcon the neuro and ourselves. There s no such enmity between us. Let us recollect that it required the bayonets A the-enemy to separate them from us, md that it has been the bayonet which las so far kept us apart. As' I speak, Iko-j^c-Tri-lo- fcto of-an elderly woumn ise-i before mc upon whose neck I vept my childish griefs, who pointed ne to the stars, and opened my infant nind to the wonders beyond them-a ace that I loved with feeling little short >i' tilial affection-and she was a negro : ind I recall another who was my boyish Companion, who taught me to ride, to hutt, whoni.I respected and loved, and vho had all the spirit of a (jei?lciaun, tnd^li? too was a negro. Is there eh-' nity between their race and mino '.' ind who ia there in this room, who loes not, at this moment, acknowledge >r recollect some one of this people as lis sincere, though humbhs friend? I said in opening, that how we should rote was not a question of reason, but )f instinct, for though reasons of jns :iec, Teasons of feeling, reasons of wis :lom, all point in tire same- direction, it ivould be useless to urge any or nil of them on the whiteman, whose instincts lid not control his vote for the Demo ?ratic party. But there need be no en anty between the negro and ourselves m that account, and I for one do not .lespair though Grant bc elected and the reconstruction measures fixed irre trievably upon us. For while I acknowl edge no enmity between us, I neverthe less know that thc white man is thc su perior, and that if we will only bc true and just, alike to thc negro and to our selves, we shall soon regain the influ ence we have lost. Thc Radicals have done their worst. By tyranny and a violation' of their Uiws? (and because I claim no right un der them, I clo not the less see their in consistency,) they haye through hate put upon us their reconstruction meas ures. Let us cease to look fer assistance from abroad, but boldly and honestly accepting thc- government chey/have put upon us. let us work under and amidst its follies and its corruptions as honest and truthful men, using the su perior intelligence we possess, to control to. our own purposes the machinery which fanatical hate has erected for our ruin. But let us not talk of ten sovereign States struck i'r>>m il1.'' Union, nor of our constitutional rights. Let us cease efforts .at conciliation. Let us recollect the time when we were ready to Le martyrs for our State, and now that wc are at the stake, and the faggots begin to ignite around us, don't let us cry for mercy, at- least until the fi?mes become too hot foi- endurance. And, fellow eif i/.ens, that never will' bi.', the luci round us will never burn. The'white race of America will.never allow any part pf this continent to be ruled by negroes any more than Indians. Let us give up tho idea of any re sponsibility for-the destiny or conduct of the negro. Treat him fairly, truth fully, fearlessly, and quietly live by the law of our own convictions of truth and justice, and so refusing to allow our selves tobe made the Mitt of political parties atjhc North, the subject of the negro will be dropped by them as no longer useful. Thus through patient and enduring persistence on our part in well doing in the face of all discour- i agement, our normal position of supe- j riority as a race, will bc again recog nized by all, and thus, through truth and justice and fearlessness, will regain otu* influence, and realize the truth of the words ol' the poet, that to act " Not for power, (power of herself Will come uoualltJ for,) but to live by law, Acting the btw wu live by without fear, And bc-uae right if right, to follow right, Were wi?doiH in the sooro of consequence."

Fellow-Citizens :-The election for Presidentand vice-President of the Uni ted States is now close at hand. The great principles involved in the contest, the magnitude of the interests at stake, and the influence which this State may have on the result, make this a proper occasion to lay before you a brief ad dress. The tendency and purpose of thc Rad ical party, as manifested in -words and acts, are the absorption of the liberty of the individual ; the destruction of States; the subversion of the Constitution, and the erection upon the ruins of individu al and public liberty, of a grand, grind ing, consolidated despotism. Already it ha? made rapid strides in that direction. Little, now, is left for it to do but.' to fuse into one mass, and then crystr.lizc into permanent form its various acqui sitions of usurped power. Its capricious acts ; its wanton cruelties ; its corrupt practices-; its enormous burdens you have felt and do know. Against these, and more than these, you are now called upon to continue a resolute fight with the'peaceful, though potent, weapon of the uallot. Thc Democratic party here md everywhere are striking with you for the principles of liberty and the-fenns }f Government to which we have been xccu-si-omod, for a-written Constitution, t Federal Union and a distinct existenee it the States. Surely'; then, the principles of. the contest are important,, and the interest ?ieat... Arouse, therefore, to the magni tude of the emergency and sparc np ef orts for success. "VVh.cn'the ^time. for .egistration shall come, let no man fail o appear, and none fail to vote. Let ;ach one remember that his individual rote may decide the election in his own listrict, and that the electoral vote of'j t. he State may turn tho scale in favor of he Democratic party. Our people must not despond, nor ro ux their efforts, if tbere should be fail ires elsewhere. On the contrary, they viii have reason to. hope and much to itimulate thom to increased enercry, for t is yet possible to win. State elections ire infltienced and sometimes controlled >y local issues ; and it luis often hap pened, that these go otto way, .and in a ew weeks thereafter, in the same place, he Presidential elections another. This aav be the case in the present canvass ; nd, indeed, we have reason lo. hope so. ween ny .yye iia.v a xec?rj^ea reports from ll parts of the State which induce the ?elief that South Carolina, with proper ffort, will be carried for Seymour and ?la?r. Let not the failure to do so be scribed to you. The canvass in which you arc. now j c Hanged is full of excitement, which rill probably continue and increase to he end. We trust, therefore, that it ?-ill not be amiss to drop you a word of aution. The criminality of a few, aud ?erh:ips the indiscretion of many, have ?laced it in the power of malice and ^representation to injure us, and se-' iously to damage the common cause. ,Ve urge you, therefore, not only to pre cut violence, but to abstain, from the iolcnce of it. We aie dealing with a alse and subtle foe-prolific in inVen ions, and venomous in purpose-a foe dio fully understands the temporary irofit of a nimble lie, which too often I ( ichievcs its end before truth calf even mckie on her armor. We ncitd not urge upon you the poli y and the duty of treating, with great cindness and forbearance, the pol o red Kopulation of the State. This you have j c jver done, and will continue to" do as c ong as you are permitted. We have j t io doubt you will make manifest ' the v intruth of the malicious, charge, that i t jy force you have compelled their votos h >r by intimidation kept them from the ' p 3olls. Their minds are rapidly opening ' ;o the truth that the vagrant white man "rom the North, as well as the renegade )f the South, who live by deceiving and plundering them, and who have been Irivingthem to destruction, aro not true friends, and are unworthy ?f confidence md support. With a fair opportunity they will return to you, as their estrange ment is owine, entirely to the false teach ings and malignant ejforts of the North 3rn emissary. It cannot be forgotten that the State voluntarily, in I860, in vested the colored population with eve ry civil right ; and that the Democratic party, in Convention in April last, re cognized them, under the previous ac tion of the State, as an integral element in the hotly politic-and expressed its willingness, when in power, to enfran chise them to the extent which the pub lic weal and their own good might war rant. The position then taken by the Convention, and whichwas announced to the people of thc State and the coun try, is now re-aifirnied. W*c beg you to remember that the Democratic party of the State was not organized for the purpose merely of supporting the nominees of the party, but for higher purposes and more en during ends, lt is" possible that our present leaders may oe defeated, but our principles will survive. The liber ty of thc individual, the being and wel fare of States, the Constitution of the United States, and a Federal Union un der it, are objects worthy of patience and enduring efforts. In the success we hope for, our organization will be most useful ; and, in case of defeat, it will become essential. Wo, thcaeforo, desire to impress upon you the necessi ty of preserving intact and in full ener gy thc admrVable organizations of the Democratic party of South Carolinp,.

In 18G0, during secession fes times, -Governor Brown kindly tele- orj graphed to Mr. Toouibs, in this city, er: that " Fort Pulaski was in danger" and, et behold, only a few hours elapsed before he had " precipitated the issue" by seiz- to\ trig it for the rebels, and hauling down ?iii thc United States flag. Wo hope his na presont alarming announcement will no not bu followed by any similar demon- risi strations on his part ; but no man who .vif has ever seen the corners of his mouth :>ri; would trust him- out of his sight.

For instance, every husband, believe, delights in a cleanly, well iercd house, free from dust, spots and seemly stains ; tho pains-taking ma nery necessary to keep it so, he never ihes to see, or seeing too. often forgets praise. Jf, then, his wife, true to ! feminine instincts towards cloanli s, gently reminds him that he has -gotten to use the door-mat before en mg the sitting-rcom on a muddy day, him reflect before giving her a lord impatient, ungracious "pshaw!" v the reverse of the picture would t him, viz : a slatternly, " easy" wo n, whose apartments.
