HALL, Publisher. READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE. Waslilttgton News. March 27.?The District officers' Judiciary bill was passed over the veto by a striot party vote and is now a law. . Tbo Conference Committee on tho Tax bill reported, tad the report was adopted. Steven's, Universal suffrage amendment. Penalty for Infringsment applies only to Ala bama. Its defeat is regarded as certain, ns it would give Alabama to the -Democrats; but the passage of tho bill as reported, which validates the constitution and inaugurates the State officials recently votod for is apprehended. Violent cross purposes exist, however, and this afternoon the proceedings are speculated upon at every corner. ' Impeachment speculations are rife, but the actors in the play are roticcnt of nothing rel iably indicative or suggestive having trans pired ''.The Tax (Conference Committee retains the whiskey clause punishing for sale below the taxi This is a point on whioh the Senate hitches. I March 28.?In tho Senate tho President was asked whether ho established any new military districts since August, and under what name ~Thc report of the Tax Confereuoc Committee wan rejected. Nye said it would fill tho penitentiaries with government officials. Howe ?aid that would be a good thing. Merrill, of Maine, did not believe there was an honest distiller in the Union.. In the House Stevens' amendment on Universal Suffrage was rejected without a division. Spatddiog's substitute was adopted by 77 to 54. It declares the Montgomery Constitution the fundamental law of tho Pro visional Government. Officers recently elected to qualify and enter on the discharge of their duties May 1st. The Governor may convene the Legislature elected under said constitution. The Legisla ture shall possess nil powers conferred by the Montgomery Constitution as to the qualifica tions of electors, with or without the amend ment. Tho majority of electors qualified under'the act of Congress of March 23, 1867, have adop ted a constitution, and the Legislature has ratified the fourteenth artiole of tho said con stitution. It may be presented to Congress for approval. The law to provide moro efficient government in the rebel States, shall remain iu force in Alabama, except as modified by the act until Alabama is admitted. March 29.?Au impeachment rumour ia rife, and very general on the streets, that tho President's counsel will movo to dismiss the case,, there being nothing impeachablo in the charges or the replication, and that Chase will sustain tho motion.' High Radical authority hoots at this. It is confidently stated that Chase will take no extreme ground, though he may claim tho power of deciding the judicial points as attaching to his position, but will put the question to the Senato, and submit to their decision. Evarts has been in Now York seeking uu thoritcs, there boing no arranged library hero and no time for the search. Evarts will arrive in the city in the morning, and in the mean time the council having been separated, will go into court without full consultation. Tho President's counsel see no causo why the, trial should be prolonged over two weeks. Butler's i speech is prepared. He treats the matter' in regular prosecuting attorney style. After Butler's speech thoy will, quoting one of the managers, "pile in thoir witnesses." Meado writes to Grant that under tho law requiring half of the registered voters to vote, the constitution of Alabama was not ratified. He says: "I cannot but look upon the recent result of the election, as an expression of an opinion, by the registered voters that they do not desire to be restored under the constitution submitted to them, nnd in view of tbo recent act of Congress allowing the majority of votes cast to ratify, I would prefer seeing the con vention reassembled for tho revision of the constitution und tho rovised constitution sub mitted to tho people under the now law. I am of tho opinion that a revised constitution, more liberal in its torms and confined to tho require ments of the Reconstruction laws, would in Alabama, as I have reason to oxpect it will in Georgia nnd Florida, meet with tho approval of ,a'majority of the registered voters." Two delegations from Florida aro before the Reconstruction Committee. One is largely represented by tho Massachusetts and the other by the Wisconsin element. The Wisconsin party have Meadcs' indorsement and forty-five signers but the Massachusetts party claim that the delegates signed the Monde Constitution) bo causo otherwise they could get no pay. March 30.?Fcderick A. Johnson, with a petition signed T>y three thousand citizens of Now Orleans, called on Grant this morning. Grant intends referring the petition to General Bpchanan.. ?The final vote on tho Alabama bill, after the aioption of the substitute by 77 to 54, was 102 to -!>--.i rtttibl party vote, except Williams, in Pennsylvania. In the House the N,cw Jcrsoy resolution withdrawing assent to tho fourteenth article, was presented. Boutwoll objected to ita re ception, as it was disrespectful iu charging the, House with usurpations. Half-past twelve arriving the House attend ed tho impeachment trial, j > . After the return, the New Jersey resolution was presented to the person who presented it, as disrespectful and scandulous. In the Sonate Chase entered and opened tho Court. The usual formalities followed. Butler spoke until 4 P. M., concluding to a comparatively thin house. The seats provided for tho House of Representatives were almost empty, ond the galleries by uo means crowded. Wilson commenced tho ovidonce, which is entirely documentary and was interrupted in the middle of the President's reasons for sus pending Staaton by a motion to adjourn, which was carried. The Tax Committee reported tho whiskey clauses in a modified form. Frauds are pun ishable by fine and imprisonment. The pon alty covers distillers, doalors and revenue offi cers, and imprisonment is mandatory. Suits shall uot- be dismissed or compromised without tho consent of the Secretary of tho Treasury and the Attorney-Gonoral. Lumber nnd flour are excepted from the wholesale tax. Other wise thorc is no change. The report was adopted. Adjourned. March 31.?In the Senate the rending of the evidence was continued until Stanbery ob jected. Chuso sustained the managers. Drake objected. Chase maintained that he had" a right to make preliminary decisions subject to appeal. Drake appealed. Tho managers sup ported tho appeal, saying they were glad the issue arose wuen tho ruling was in their favor. Tho defence took part in the contest. A mo tiou to retire prevailed, Chase voting with tho ayes to decide the tie. Doolittlo and Snuls bury were tho only Democrats who voted nny. After three hous absence, Chase announced tbo decisiou to be that he should decide ques tions of ovidonce and other preliminary ques tions, subject to appoal to the Senate. Ad journed. Judge Black yestcrduy in the Supreme Court, desired to argue tho effect of the recent legislation ou the McArdlc case. During the colloquy, Judge Gricr said he felt called upon to vindicate himself from whatever of obloquy or coneuro may attach to any ono in this mat ter. That he thought the failure to decide the iMcArdle case will be considered as a design ou tho part of the court, to wait for legislation to relievo them from the pcrformnuco of an un pleasant duty. Gricr closed with "I am ashamed that such an opprobrium should be cast upon the court, and that it cannot be rc- ' futod," Tbc Supreme Court has postponed the argu ment in the McArdlo case uutil the noxt term. General Hancock has issued an order to-day assuming command of the division of tho At lantic, with his headquarters at Washington. The division embraces the Department of the East, of Wushingtou, and of tho Lakes. Tho President's friends seem in excellent spirits. The President has changed the form of ap pointment blank?, so that they will conform to the teuuro of office act. General Morchead characterizes tho iutci viows of Stautou and Thomas, as somewhat jocular, with no hostilo manifestations. Butler offered to repeat what was said by witnesses who could not make themselves hoard, but tho defence objected. April 1.?Senate.?After reading the jour nal, which was interrupted, by Summer's ineffectual attempt to declare Chase's casting the vote illegal, the question of evidence which | interrupted yesterday's open proceedings was resumed. Both the managers nud the Prcsi- j dent's counsol consumed their hour, and Chase was sustained by a strict party vote. Pending the discusion, the managers declined to answer what use they intended to mnko cf the disputed evidence, as it would expose thoir plan of pro. cecding. The question at issue wns whether what Thomas said nnd did, could be recived. Under this ruling it was proved that Thomas said he intended to use force, and to break down the door, nud thut nftorwnrds he said ho was deterred from using force by his arrest. The next contest arosoovor the admissibility of what Thomas did and said previous to receiv ing orders to take the war office Chase ruled it out Drake appealed and tho appeal was sustained by a vote of 28 to 22. The managers stated previous to tho vote that they intended proving by this evidence that Thomas in the line of his conspiracy attempted to corrupt the employees of the war office. Butler, during this controversy, violently assailed Gonornl Thomas, as having been dis graced by Lincoln and S3 teuton, and that aside from assisting the President in bis conspiracy, he grntifiod his rovengo. Undor this ruling it was provod that shortly after Thomas' reinstate ment as Adjutant-General ho called up the heads of the bureau nnd chief employees and imformod them thnt strict rules would be relaxed. Cross oxnmiuation elicited the fact that these I speeches were confined to the employees of tho Adjutant General's Department, and that no allusion was made to the probability of Thomas becoming Secretary of war. This point created quite u buzz. Further evidence showed that General Thomas had said that he intended to apply to General Grant for u force to put him in possession. Only thrco witnesses wore examined to-day. New England Squirming.?A Boston merchant writes a western commercial house:? "If the two Houses of Congress could be sunk about t\yq hundred feet Under the earth, where they could never rise again you would bco trojtlo and commerce resume, and would also see a glowing smilo on every ^ Honest man's face in the country. The Lord doljvcr us from Buch an administration as that wo arc now enduriugl" Tho country hears more groaus from that mis* erable quarter of the North, New England, than from all other sections of the country together. If thoso Godforsaken fanatics had listened to the prophetic warnings given by Tho Day-Book weekly, after tho accursed war broko out?a" war they hatched into existence?there would havo boen loss Buffering there, as well as in tho country generally. We told them what the price of "crushing out the South" would bo. They hoeded it not, and now their wails aro awful. New England fanatics, you have sowed the wind, you muBt roap the whirlwind!? New York Day Book. THE~?RAN&EBUa6 NEWS. SATURDAY, AP11IX i, 1888. , While ire reserve to ourselves Hie right of defi ning our own political position by means of our editorial columns, we will be pleased tp publish) contributions from our fellow-citizens vpc/n trie, grave questions which note agitate the public mind, whether their opinioit* coincide with ours or not. ' A district newsjiaper, we consider,'' should be. an index of the various shades of pop ? ular sentiment in the section of country in which it circulates. Our . columns are ojten, therefore, for my communications properly written, accom panied by a rrsjmnsible name, not personal in their character, nor absolutely injurious in their tendency. Shall wo Act, mid How? Wo commend to tho attention of our rend ers, the article iu our columns entitled "Our Policy," written by a distinguished citizen of our District, and designed to express the views of a number of our people ; and we urgently in vite expressions of opinion from our fellow citizens upon a subject, the importance of which cannot be exaggerated. ^4Eor ourselves, wo do not believe that our policy is to act. We say this inuch, that every white citizen of Orangcburg District, who is entitled to REGISTER, and has not done so, owes it to himself,.to bis fauiily and to his race, to do so at once. And why ? Because the right to vote is at) element of power; and the day ma}' come, when that power can be used with telling effect. Rut, beyoud this, we believe in a "masterly inactivity." Wc arc opposed to tho organiza tion of Democratic clnbs, because wo believe they will do no good at present. Wc are op posed to voting at tho ensuing election for members of the Legislature, or upon the rati fication of the proposed Constitution; because wc aro uot yet prepared to fight Radicalism upou its own chosen ground. Let the same actors conclude the farce, that begau it. Let us not, by opposition, elevate it to the diguity of an historical drama. But there aro some people, who think that there must be a demonstration of some kind, or many whito men will bo attractod into tho Radionl rauks, by tho alluring promise of a homestoad, made in tho new Constitution. If thoro be such whito men in Orangcburg Dis trict, who will sell thoir birthright for a moss of postage, lot thoin go; they are worth nothing tu us. Tho meu of priuciplo, the men who are white mcu in sail, as well as in color, will not sacrifice their honor upon tbo altars of a false god. Whether there be Democratic plubs or not, tho men "of tho right grit" will stand firm. As for the othors, they will be riehtly disappointed, wlion they find that tho expected homestoad will do them no good, as it will not apply to past debts; aud tho apples of Sodom will thus turn to ashes in their grasp. | Let be quiet, and bide our timo. Wc have the mighty weapon, CAPITAL, in our hands, and if wo will only organize to use it aright, wo may be ablo to accomplish a great deal. Let us form planters' clubs, and agricultural associations, and immigration societies; und in these ways, become proparod to dictate to the iguorar.t herd, as masters of their daily bread. Hero, wo may do something by activity : lot us spend our cucrgy iu tho right direction, and not waste it on impossibilities. We do not like to quoto Latin, but a aonti mcnt of Iloruco appropriately expresses our idou of the true position of a Southern goutle taan iu theso days of trial: Jiihium ot tcnuocin propostti virum fton utvinrn ardor prava jubontium, Non vuHub instantia tyrunni Mentc qimtit snlidn. ??MS? - - ? l? i A Reverend Binokd-Streaked, ib ar r ester for improper conduct, resists the police and offers O.ne hundred Dollars to ?b let off.?Last night, about !10 o'clock, Rev. (?) B. V. Randolph, the saddle coloured delegate, to the great ringed-streukod nud-Htripcd, who represented Orangcburg, but lives in Charleston, was arrested in the burnt district, boillg* taken in conduct contra bonus mores. Ho nt first resisted tho police, but when ho found that resistance was useless, he offered a bribe of one hundred dollars, to bo let off, without being carried to the guardhouse To, the guardhouse, howovcr, he had to go, and there be was required to deposit thirty dollars, as security for his appearance, before the Mayor, this morning, but he will, probably^ fort?il fTiaJ small amount.?\<l/o-i ury. A [FOR THE ORANQEBURO NEWS.] ^ Our Policy. I Much has boon written, concerning the i course the South should have pursued during [the last two or three years, with regard to the political measures before tho country. It was j generally conceded that the State, indeed the Southern States, should do something to ward off tho ruin which threatened them?to adopt J such a polioy by which they could successfully oppose the measures they thought unconstitu tional ; and at the same time prove to the gov ernment their loyalty and readiness to ac quiesce in any coarse founded upon reason, justice, and the constitution. 1 Our people, from the very beet of motives I they thought, decided to pursue no particular courso i but to remain comparatively inactive, be lieving that the justice of the cause would work out their salvation. It was especially advised that they ahouid do nothing to shape their destiny, irathor than du too much to provoke the dis Ipleasure of tho party in power,?that there was wisdom in inactivity. It was alleged that wo had just emerged from a most disastrous war in which the brightest hopes had been . disappointed, and tho noblest enthusiasm that ever animatod the heart of patriots had been . destroyed and utterly shipwrecked. We wore | told that our homes had been plundered, our I fields blighted, our property destroyed and that "The position of our people was that of the con quered. Suoh was the argument used and the in Hue uce which induced the State to adopt the present policy. The history of the paBt three 1 years and the experience of to-day testify that any other policy would have brought us to an adjustment of our difficulties as soon, if not in .shorter time. To persist in it now can have ino other effect than to ? prolong our troubles ;until it shall culminate in negro rule or milita ry despotism over tho South. Faith simply in j the justice of a cause cannot save us?with faith wc must couple works in ordcrjlo succeed. 'Inactivity can gain us no advantages, but on the other hand it will encourage tho radicals I in their nets of usurpation and efforts to over throw the present government of the couutry. Whilst wc have been quietly looking on, groat changes have been effected in tho organic law ' of the land. Not satisfied with falsifying the promise mado at the inauguration of the war against the South, that so soon as the States in rebellion should lay down their arms and returu to their allegiance under the Coustitu tion, the war should cease : they proceeded to disregard the stipulations of peace between our commanding generals. They have stulti fied the meaning of the term peace by keeping a large standing army, at a great expflnso, in the South; and that too in the face of the President Proclamation declaring peace was re established. They have driven tho Southern States out of the Union, instead of drawing them into it: and nstnbHshed ever thorn a military despotism, with the promise of a better government uuder negro rulo. Tuey havo trampled undor foot tho Constitution, an** pro claimed tho will of Congress tho organic law of the laud. They have dared to cripplo tho Executive, to gag the Judicinry, and to subject them all to the Legislative Department of the government. And now whilst we are looking on, their design regarding the South has reached its height when they submit to the people the blackest and most disgraceful instrument ever jhouored by tho name of Constitution. Now I ask what are the advantages of inac tivity ? Weigh them against tho incalculable WrotohedncBS to bo indurcd by Negro-radical rule under tho vpry worst type of savage cruel ty, even though it be for a short time. Who can imagine the tide of demoralization, which will require hut a few years to wash out overy noble and honorable mark that remain to us now of our happier days. The condition of tho.white race hero will be moro deplorablo than that of any people known in history. In ull other revolutions there was a feeling of sympathy to temper tho oouqueror's rule; but here the superior race in the scale of human beings is placed under the entire control of the iuforior, with none of tho sympathy oxisting between kindred nations. With all tho super J stitutiou and prejudices of his raco who can ex pool the nogro to exercise any other govern ment over us than tho absolute power tho mas ter possess over tho slave. Now, Mr. Editor, tho question arises, onn wc prevent the occurrence of such a stato of affairs? The solution is simply one of iu fiuencc. Docs the whito man of the South possess sufficient power over the personal inter est of tho negro to influence his action in'dm coming elections ? I believe he has and all we vy ant is t|iu pnprgy?the acth ity to bring it in force; but if tho pxeroiso of this power is de cayed until tho ratification of tho so-called Con stitution, the reception of tho State into the Union under that Constitution, and the invest ment of the radical party with the strength of j tho South; then the ruin uf the Southern' frhite man will be a matter of a few years work. Tho friends of the Constitution tithe North Are organizing under ? Platform, sufficiently liberal for the South; and in many sections of this State, and of the South generally, thero Itre organizations called Democratic Clubs or ganized for the pttrpwe of co-operating with] ?the democrats North iu this efforts to save tat) South front negro rule, and tho country at purge from radical usurpations. And whilst they nro fighting the battle against this mad. policy upon the only legitimate ground, at tho polls; let us at tho South who are most inter ested do the same. In doing so wo do not ackoolwedge tho legality of the Negro Consti tution, or forfeit our position as to tho uncon stitutional! ty of the Reconstruction Acts; but simply to meet them upon their /own ground and fight them with their own weapons. It is believed that this extreme radical policy is in sistcd upon to obtain power and spoil and the negro is a fit tool to throw the strength of eleven States on the side of the revolutionist in tho next Presidential election, and thus perpet uate their power for four years longer. Why may we not use the samo tool to accomplish our purposes. Let us bring to bear upon the negro every possible influence?explain the in justice of the measure?its direct opposition to our interest and his own; and tell him plainly to choose between tho two, the Northern radi cal with his false promises, or the Southern white man and comfortable homes. It was the argument that served the peoplo of Alabama aud will not fail in South Carolina. I under stand there is a meeting called at Washington Seminary to organize one of these clubs, may ft not suggest Mr. Editor, the propriety of a more extensive meeting to be hehfat the Court House during Court Week. S. PUBLIC MEETING. Mr. Editor : The citizens of St. Matthews' Parish, nnd all others wlio feel nn interest in the result of | of the events now transpiring, nnd desire to save our country from ruin, nrc earnestly invited to at tend a meeting to be held at Wusbingtou Seminary on Saturday 11th April nest, for tho purpose of or ganizing a Democratic Club to act in concert with other portions of the State, and to assist our friends of the North who arc trying to savo us from "Negr* Hulc nnd Military Despotism." mar 28?3t MANY CITIZENS.
