Thoso disagreements IIUVQ produced feelings of bit tornes%ip man*y^cotions of tho Stato which havo produced fwlings^ok supineness and lukewarmness more diffiouft-to oontond with than active opposition.'

There is groat grounds for nlorm hnd good oauBO to four tho State Government w,ill return to Radical rule Tho ' peoplo seem to havo forgotten tho eight years of plunder they onoo endured, and nppoar to be ready to eqprifioo what wua so hardly won , in 1870 for a moro opinion of wbut they re gard right, Everybody hus his viows and each thinks they should bo carried out or thoy will loavo tho party. Tho party is now an army of lenders without followers. Whilo thin is true of tho Douiooraoy, tho Radicals stand firm ready to follow tho book und call of a fow unprincipled loudon?. Thoy aro : uow, as in formor d rys, a solid body, ready to rou?0 up und retake tho Stnto as occasion oilers. Cnn wo ovorcomo this condition of tho party and hold tho Stato? If it bo pos siblo wo should begin* nt utico and work to revivo thc puftj. * Its present apathy is tho greatest "booroo of dangar. Break this nnd thoy will register, nttond public meetings and nguiu become tho solid and irresistible body which won success ngainst nil opposition in 1876. Whore a party sleeps in tho fuco of danger it is ovidenoo they hnvo lost sight of dangor. Thoy must bo rousod up. Thia is tho utily hopo of getting thom to listen to reason. Fur bettor than an extra session of tho Legislature would it bo fur tho press and people to work, for lifo and energy in tho party. Tho party IB sound at heart nnd it is only tho feeling thai ihcir rights havo been lukcn from them, which has produced tho present apathy and opposition to exertion. With us this feeling is wearing off und now that tho people hnvo realized that tho aleck law is ti fixture, thoy uro becoming moro rc? oonoilcd nnd uro preparing to livo under it.

Wo aro decidedly opposed to . it and cammi seo tho good to result Irani I such a courso, apnrt from thc evils of tho expense, Whon the Legislature is onco omi', yened in extra session there is no power that cnn limit its legislation or duration. Whnt ( good cnn come of redistricting tho Stute? Thc Democrats expect to curry tho Siuto in I thc general election and cannot afford to loso , it nnd if they carry thu State then they will bo likely to curry two Congressmen from tho State nt largo. Tho fact that tho Federal , nnd Stale elections ure separated is not likely I to nitor tho result, us men who vote tho Stute Democratic ticket will likowiso volo tor Congress thc snmo wuy.

I The Saluda Argus linn the following sensi? ble views on this subject: j '.There is ti rumor current I lint Ibero in some probability of un extra session of the $ Legislature being culled to redistrict thc Sluto. Who wanta ibo Sinlo redistricted? j Who is to be benefited by an extra sesi?n? Evidence too clearly points toward a finger . ing of thc ring in this regnrd to warrant un j uruntolligiblo answer.

No conceivnblo good cnn ho brought upon thc Stute by un extra session, und there is not tho smallest need for a redistricting of tho Stale: but thorn exists untold reasons why it should not bo di no now.

The clomonts appear to have played, havoc in the West this 8prlog. A. flood on the Mississippi rarely, if over, paral Iel od, has just subsided, leaving thousands of people, largo and rich planters, without homes, or even provisions to sustain life, when on tho heels of tho subsidence of tho waters n series of tor under s swoop ever ports of Kansas, Iowa, Illinois and Michigan, demolishing houses and destroying numbers of lives. Tho datnugo dono nloog tho rioh Missis* sippi bottoms is immense and not a few of tho largo planters will bo provontod from mak ing a orup this year. Tho consequence ?a that, whero wealth and plenty aboonded only a few wooks ngo, tho Oenernl Government hns had to issuo rations for tho support of tho citizens of several States. Tho richest cotton lands of the Ui'itcd States havo boon toni' pornrily ruined, and ns nnolhor consequence tho price of cotton has advanced moro than a ocnt on the pound. Tho effect will be foll moro than n your boneo and in tho shorter crop of nnothor yonr tho citizens of loss fa vored sections will reap higher prices for tho j nost drop. Wo aro glad to seo cotton riso highor in value, but not through onuses, j which bas brought pecuniary ruin to so many. Tho Governors of soveral inundated States havo expressed tho opinion that tho pooplo of these State! will "not bo able to ro pair tho broken levees, and that tho General Government should take ibo matter in hand To cucloso within secure bunks this groat sea of waters is a herculean job, but it is ono which should bo dono in u way to provent a repetition of the disasters of lust month.

Go whero you will in all this broad land, and you will find rich nnd poor, but In very few places will you find a climate and water so pure and salubrious and nt tho sumo time n soil so generous us wo havo in upper South Carolina. It is not tho country so much as the man, who creates wealth, while it is the country that breeds discuto or retains health. Tho active, thrifty and eco nomical can grow rich boro, while tho thrift less und idlo will grow poor anywhere Health is hotter than money and a feeling of security from disaster, whether from water, wind.
