THE OIipiGrEBTJRG pWS.
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 12,18?7.
While toe reserve to ourselves tlie right of defi
ning our own political position by means of our
editorial columns, tec icill be pleased to publish
contributions from- our fcllow-citizims upon the.
grave questions which note agitate the pubfie
mind, whejthrr their opinions coincide, with ours
or not. A district newspaper, tee consider,
should be an index of the, various shades of pop ?
ufar sentiment in the section of country in ich ich
it circulate*. Our columns are open, therefore,
for uny communications properly written, accom
panied by a resjMjnsibfc name, not personal hi
their character, nor absolutely injurious in their
tendency.
The Northern Elections.
The news over the wires is encouraging.
The extremists, who were bent on running
this Government to destruction, arc meet
ing with obstacles in their mad career. Penn
sylvania and Ohio, two of tho largest and most
influential States, have, we may say, gone
Democratic. .Even in Ohio, where some doubt
may still exist as to the election of a Radical
or a Democratic Governor, the Republicans
themselves united with the Democrats to vote
against negro suffrage ; and the negro is there
disfranchised by n majority of fifty thousand.
But let us not indulge too much in dreanis
of hope. To ameliorate our condition; nihny
greater successcr must bo accomplished than
these. These remarkable changes in Northern
public sentiment do not indicate any sympathy
with us : they only show that the people of the
North arc not willing themselves to CDdurc
what they intend that wc, conquered sub
jects, shall be combed to submit to. Hut to
otic class bi* popple in our midst, there is in nil
Ibis a very significant lesson. Tho defeat of
?cgTO suffrage in Ohio by the votes of the Re
publicans themselves, should show the negroes
of the South the truth of the lesson, which the
white people of the South have ever endeavor
ed to impress upon them, that the Yankees of
the North CARE NOTHING for Til EM j
and should teach them lo distrust still more
the hypocritical pretensions of wandering dem
agogues, who try to gain their votes by great
promises of what the Republican party will do
for their benefit.
Let the colored man ask the next one of'
these apostles of the Radical party that comes
along, the question : ' What has the Republi
can party done for the black people in Ohio in
tho last elections?" and we think the Rad will
bo slightly embarrassed.
Let the colored man now learn the great
lesson, which to know, is to be capable of free
dom,?To act his part in his proper sphere,
honestly and with good will to all; and to take
counsel of his known and tried friends, in mat
ters which he cannot of himself understand, in
preference to the wordy advice of every mouthy
vagabond,, who may come along, and try tu
make him imagine himself a hero.
Our Charleston Letter.
CIIARLK8TON, Oct. 10, I8<57.
Of local news here there isa very great dearth,
and were it not for the interest now evoked
by the elections at, the North the wir? people
would suffer from leisure, and the newspaper
men would bo forced to imitate poofs and draw
largely on their imaginations. Ah however
the popular pulse is now being quickened by
the exciting tidings of the wonderful speed of
the re-action harbingered by Connecticut last
Spring?and as all are speculating on the re
sults for us of tho defeat of Radicalism, mat
ters of a strictly local character tire lost sight
of and the want of homo news is not felt. So
much apologetically,?and as a premonition,
that my letter will be barren of news.
An order from Genoral Canby, designating
the time for the Convention elections has been
written but has not yet been published. I
have good authority for stating (hat it will be
promulgated by Monday next. T have been
unable to ascertain the time at which the elec
tions arc to ho hold, the military being in this
instance signnlly reticent.
No candidates have yet been presented to
the people here, but nominations will be pre
settled next week. The Radicals design hold
ing wnrd-mcetiugs for this purpose* und will
probably present a mixed ticket. It is very
doubtful- if any Conservative or Democratic
nominees.will'be made.
Hon. F. A. Sawyer, I have heard it stated,
is an aspirant to tho honors of the United
States Senate. A portion of the Iludieals here
have endorsed him and every effort is to be
made to bring his name prominently before
the people. It was principally with this end
in view that forty thousand copies of Mb lato
speech here have been printed for broadcast
circulation. The party endorsing Mr. Sawyer
also design laboring to advauco the prospects
of Chief Justice; Chase for the Presidency.
They have .hived the large hall iu the third
story of the Adgcr buildiug aud will mo it as
their headquarters.
Among the literary and scientific, a con
siderable interest has been taken in the dis
covery last week of an enormous fossilized"hu
man thigh bone and other relics of a former
ago in the pott-pteivecne beds in this vicinity,
by Professor Holmes, the geologist. Prom the
age of the Stratum in which these nre found
the Professor advances the opinion that there
were men anterior to tho Indians, and proba
bly before the flood. Among tho relics are
bones of the extinct Mastodon, Megatherium,
Mylodoli and Taper; also of the native Ameri
can deer, raccoon, opossum, beaver and elk,
besides those of the horse, cow, sheep, dog and
hog, aud, most marvelous to relate, stone
hatchets, arrow and spear heads, and fragments
of pottery, all evidently the workmanship of
man. DELTA.
Mr. Pcnt?cton on ltepudiation.
The Democrats of Cleveland, Ohio, having
serenaded Messrs. George II. Pcndlcton and
George K. Pugh at a hotel in that city on the
evening of the 1 Stli ult.. Mr. Pcndlcton, in his
response, took occasion to explain his position
in relation to the payment of the five-twen'y
bunds. He said :
Let me state to you the position. YV*o have
an enormous debt. We have a rate of. fixa
tion beyond all example oppressive ^c h;iY"
a .system of legal-tender no-^ auJ a q(
national banks. T ^rt^u navc.?oeu them.
I did notv:;i0 for tl.Min a ? M{ rps .
lie 1
II . ior them. They are great evils. They
ought tobe gotten rid of. And if they present
any means of assisting us in getting rid of
them, we ought to sehec it. Tho ;:.:.-inh?rcsl
paying debt, consisting of greenbacks atidnm.
liquidated debt, amounts to about 8S00.00tt.O00.
The proposition of the Republicans is to con
vert this deld into bonds whieh pay interest in
gold. The interest on those bonds will be
848,000,000 in gold annually Tho result
will be to increase by that amount the expen
ses, to convert active capital into inactive capi
tal, and thus to increase the number of those
who do not pay taxes, and to increase the bur
dens of those who do pay taxes.
I maintain that this debt ought not he so
converted; that these 848.000,000 |n gold
should be savod. There are four hundred
millions of these bonds iu the Treasury as se
curity for the national bank currency. They
are represented by a nearly equal amount of
bank notes. They call for $2-1,000,000 in
gold annually as interest. Now. 1 maintain
that these bonds should bo redeemed in green
backs. The result would be that greenbacks
would take the pluce of the bank notes, whieh
would bo called in. and that ?24.000,000 of
interest would bo saved. If that $24,000,000
were added to tho 848,000,000 of which I have
spoken, you hnvo $7li,<OIO.0Ot) in gold annual
ly; nnd this, properly compounded, would pay
the whole debt, principal and interest, in fif
teen years.
And now observe that thus far T have hot
proposed to add one dollar to your taxes, nor
one dollar to the currency. 1 am satisfied that
they can bear more now. 1 am satisfied that
the good to result will more than compensate
for the evils How far the expansion may be
safely carried, 1 cannot pretend with exactness
to say. All that 1 maintain is this : That
just as rapidly as the prosperous condition of
the business will permit it, the bonds .should
he redeemed iu greenbacks; for just so fast
will the interest be paid, the taxes be reduced,
and labor be relieved from the burdens which
now so heavily oppress it."

Death of Henry Timro'J Esq.
Who will not. be pained to hear the an
nouncemcnt ol the decease of Henry Tiinrod
?he whose name has bccoino "a household
word" in every home where presides the diety
of love, intellect and Christianity?
For several weeks his health has been de
clining, and recently a series of hemorrhages
confined him to his room and bed. Yesterday
he breathed his last, and, in the prime of his
manhood and zenith of his fame, was gathered
to his fathers.
The open record of Henry Timrod's li lb is a
simple one?very unlike, however, that of other
men. He knew nothing of the world. In
thought, a giant; in act, he was but a child.
Horn in Charleston in 18H0, for thirty-seven
years he lived tho life id" a poet ? nature deny
ing him nothing which belongs to the pact's
birthright, and giving him iu death tin. open
scroll, on which was Written his reward eter
nal.
Tho father of Henry Titnrod was likewise a
pqct of no ordinary sweetness, and when the
mantle fell upon the sun) the "living fire" grew
brighter, until it became a fixed and brilliant
star in our Southern firmament.
Tn the school, at the university, as an editor
of a daily journal, and amid the busy haunts
of men, he lived, as it were, by hiuaadf?among
the creations of his own fur-searching mind,
nnd in sympathy with the consciousness of its
unseen powers. His whole life had flowed
from a mysterious urn?a sacred stieam, in
whose calm depth the beautiful and pure alone
were mirrored?and when the end came, he
returned to the nature he loved and the God
he. worshipped, with the calm, sweet, prophetic
certainty in his soul that Heaven was near,
and immortality about to begin.
The secret of his success as a poet was his
love for nature, and the rare genius he posses
sed in portraying that love in language which
stirred the heart. He loved Cod's creation,
whether in the heavens above or the earth be
neath?ho loved music, sculpture, painting, all
things pure, or grand, or beautiful j "the set
ting sun, a lako among the mountains, the
light of an ingenuous countenance, and, what
transcends them all. a noble action."
Nothing unworthy ever came from Mr. Tim
rod's pen. Years ago, a volume of his poems
was published ; but since then, his fugitive
pieces have not averag? d more than three or
four in a year. Who does not remember the
thrilling lines with which he was wont to stir
the feelings of our people during the war?his
?'Charleston." "Cry to Anns" and "Carolina?"
We have seen audiences at their recital rise to
their feet and send up cheer on cheer. These
poems are destined to live in the English lan
guage, and with them their gifted author.
We may not have appreciated him while
living?genius seldom enjoys its reward in the
flesh. Hut the time is now near when the
name ofTimrod will illustrate in literature the
fame which South Carolina has derived front
others of her sons in the forum and upon the
field.
Mr. Tiinrod could not be a poet without be
ing a Christian, and as such he died. Ho
citing to lift- and those he loved 'with wondc-';
fill tenacity, yet bis faith \v.:s tirm.'"^ he fal
tered not the <!;?'..,u hoUr reproached. Some

being written upon the very bed where he

Down?down?down?from fbrty-Hvo au?!
fifty to thirteen" cents a pound! What d-.i : it
mean? Simply that we have lost control of
the staple of the world, and been deluded by
the belief that all mankind depended on the
South for what they \\<-ar and tear. No mis
take ever was limit' grievous. England has
developed the resources of India to a degree
which made her almost independent of the
South during the war, and she continues to
grow more so every year. Magnificent rail
roads, one thousand miles in length, enable her
to penetrate the heart of the India cotton re
gion, where labor can be had for five cc.ts a
day. Magnificent lines of steamers Communi
cate weekly with the Indian ports, and nearly
a million of bales are uov in course of transit
to the Liverpool docks and warehouses.
Blind to these facts, our people have gone
on making cotton, trusting to tin* chances of
weather, rust and eatcrpiller. hoping tu realize
small fortunes quickly; crops have hevn mort
gaged in advance to obtain fends, an?', large
outlays made, in the confidence that the high
prices to be received would morv rhnn balance
the account. Now. what n disappointment.
Few planters arc likely to realize their salt.
Half the crop has been ruined in many Ideali
ties, and tin- remaining half must, pcrforco, be
immediately sold to meet the demands against
plantations by factors.
In all this there i., a lesson; ami that lesson
should teach the importance of changing our
style of agriculture* and grow crops that triff
pay, and ate not subject to the immense specu
lative fluctuations of trade. Let our farmers
turn their attention to corn, wheat, to ground
nuts, fruit, vegetables, to the growth of sheep,
cattle and horses, ami to manufactures. Let
the cotton we grow he made up at homo. We
can save, fifteen per cent, in its manufacture
alone, and probably thirty percent, which now
goes into the pocket of the Northern specula
tors,
