EDITORS KKOWKK Couiuuti: In passing through Walhalla n few days ago I accidentally heard thal lhere .would bo n political meeting of the so called Greenbank puny, and gratifying my curiosity to learn tho principles of (his party, as promulgated iu South Carolina, I therefore allcndcd this meeting on tho Viii instant. My knowledge of Greenback principles ns announced in the North nud (he Impression re ceived from this meeting convinced mo moro thoroughly than ever of tho utter empli ness of (he move Thc conduct, too, ot' those leading tho movement is such ns lo convince every per son of any thought nt all, "beyond a doubt," that (heir aims aro self-aggrandizement. This meeting had (wo sides-a ludicrous and a serious, lt uns amusing (o seo (ho party which proposes lo take (ho place of (he Demo cratic and Republican parties opposed by gentlemen whoso only recommendations are a loo intimate acquaintance with John Harley Corn, which gavo them a readiness and a faciiity lo draw oil' and put on their coats, only equaled by (hose who aro aided by John Darley Corn and (heir patriotic devotions lo their country. Tho parliamentary usages nod variations with which these gentlemen proposed and conducted (he meeting were such as would have done credit to "Pickwick's Celebrated Club." They opened her "beyond a doubl," i li c ii "Iel her roll," and slio did roll under (he oil repealed slang "let her rip" and "that is so beyond a doubt, so help mo Cod," which grand sentiments wire lustily and vociferously cheered by tho darkies, who ought lo have been on thc banks of tho Congo in Africa chewing thc shin bone of a missionary. 1 have always been a Republican, except with a few "slight variations," and unless there arc many and great variations in (ho conductor Ibo leaders of (nc Crccnbackcrs, Republicanism and Democracy will ever be the only parlies I lint will merit thc consideration of the people. I therefore cnn "bul Iel her (thc Crccnbackcrs) roll beyond a doubl." There is however a serious view of this meet ing by tho Orcenbookcrs. 1 noticed (hal (hey have no fundamental principles growing oui of (he constitution ns thc basis of their parly organization. Their platform is made up of rallier questions which inoro properly belong lo thc consideration of (lie Democrats than to ibo formation of a new party. Thc questions of bank, slock nnd election laws, education, &c, nrc mal lei s lo ba sell led between Democrats in the parly rather man lo serve as a basis of a new parly, Tho Crccnbackcrs proceed from (he vicious principio "All things lo all men in all places." For Maine they arc prohibitionists. In North Carolina anti prohibitionists, ?a Soulh Carolina they oro opposed io higher education, in New York tliey are in favor of holli common and higher ?ducation, in Massachusetts they nro in favor of qnnlitied suffrage, in South Carolina (hey nrc in favor of an* unlicensed, unbridled and unqualified suffrage. Their leaders have colors equal to thc celebrated coat of Joboph of the Holy Writ, nm! like Joseph's brethren they nie willing (o succeed even if they have lo dip their biol lier's? coal In thc blood of thc goal lo deceive their countrj men Some other 'Cincinnatiis'' will hnvc lo bc called "beyond n doubt" from I lie plow handles limn (ho sclf consiiiutcd ' Cii.cinniiius'' who manned (his meeting. 1 herc willi enclose 7r cents for six months subscription for yoar paper, ns I am desirous to keep up with this movement.
