THE ORANGrEBUM NEWS. SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, 1808. , ,, ? ?? FOB MtESIDENT, HORATIO SEYMOTJR. OF NEW YORK. ~o FOR VICE-PRESIDENT. FRANCIS P. BI?I?. OF MISSOURI. Look Out for tho Taxes., , Tho now Stato Government 'Is bankrupt. Tho Hcallawags and oarpot baggors at Colum bia aro fast running tho in at hi no of thoir own construction, to ruin. Thoir so-called Govern or, Scott, with tho faith and .credit of Now South Carolina pledged by tho so-oalled Legis lature, and with their authority to effect u loan Of 8600,000, cannot raiso 825,000, ovon at a discount of Bixty cents on the dollar. Tho Radicals in the State have no money; and Radical capitalists abroad aro not williug fo run tho riBk. This means of raising funds having failed tho next Btop'lakon by tho Legislature is to vote them'solvcs'pay in Bills Rcccivublc at the rate of seventy conts on the dollar. They do this, in uttor disregard of tho Constitution of'| thoir own framing, which provides that tho Legislatures shull not bo empowered to increase their own compensation, during their term of| office. This, of course, makes no difference Vu tho members of tbat hybrid body : but it does make a groat difference to the Treasury of the State. We aro glad, therefore, to announce^ Chat this act of monstrous and corrupt legisla tion is having its legitimate effect. Wo learn by our exchanges that the mccrhants it! Colum bia are refusing to take the Bills Receivable ; and wo have no doubt, in a week a two, they will become as uncurrcnt as Confederate money. This being tho case, the'Legislature will be driven to ita last resource,?the taxation of! the WHITE PEOPLE of the State. Wo ?ay the white people, bocause. tho new consti tutiou provides that negroes, who are not pro perty-holders, shall never bo taxed more thau % dollar apiece, and then only for the purpose , of establishiug schools. Tho question is, whether this mode of rais ing money will bo any more, succcssluj, than | tho two plans abovo alluded to. which havo so aigaolly failed ? Wo think not. The great| doctrine of a popular government is, "NO TAXATION, WITHOUT REPRESENTA TION;" and in our present Stale organiza tion, tho CAPITAL of the couutry h as no voice, and should uot, therefore, be burdened with its support. When wo pay taxes, we do bo for our protection and benefit; but we aro ut iuoly unwilling to do bo, for the protection aud benefit of our enemies. We are not willing to support a government, which legislates against our proporty; and is an engiuc, which is be ing used ontircly for our destruction. Wo ?will not furnish "a Btiek to break our own heads." If tho groat maa^ of tho property-holders of the State will, with ouo accord, tighten their purse-strings, nud refuso to put uny good nion oy into tho bauds of tho carpet-bag crow, the great power wbieh holds them together will bo dcutroyod. With the departuro of the hopo of plunder, tho carpet bags of politioal adven turers will bo ?b soarco in tho land, as inus quitoes at a Christmas Dinner. Wo make theso remarks, because the Colum bia Radicals aro hurrying a Tux Bill through both houses, at telegraph speed, which will xoako tho burden of taxation at least THREE TIMES as heavy as it has over boon iu South Carolina. Wo viow their course with consid erable interest; but we don't soo uny money in that speculation. We t hiuk it likely that tho Uuion Leaguers will havo to raise n b Bubscriptiou to pay the faro of their Senator? and Representatives back home, at the close ?Si t' i tr "' of tho present farce. Let thorn play out their low comedy : soon the days of mountu bauka will pass away ; and actors will appear upon the stago, to redeem tho character of the 8tato: repudiate the base fabrications of those ovil times, and act noble parts in the political drama. Democratic Gains. Our rondcrs all remember Col. TCozlny, who was in command at this place shortly after the war. Wo observo iu tho J)<.uly Eagle, publish ed1 in Brooklyn, Now York, the following para graph, which we clip as matter of interest in this connection : Conservative Soldiers ani> Sailors.? Tho regular weekly meeting of tho fjoldior's und Sailor's Conservative Veteran Association of Kings County, was held last evening at Democratic" Headquarter.%'Court street. Tho President, General E. A. Koslay, occupied the chair, and: Captain Itogan, aotcduB Secretary. We fiud also, iu the same interesting jouru al, th? gratifying Btutoinent, tljuA; in tho Fourth Assembly District T King's County, New -Yorlc^cQntuiuing thousands of returned Uuion Soldiers, nu organisation was started in favor of "Grant and Colfax,^' styled "Tho Hoys in Bluo :" and so few soldiers oovld be inducod to join, that it was necessary to take in civil ians, under the title of "loyal friends of tho soldiors." in order to form: a club of sixty mem bers.; ' jj ' J "?.'': [co m muni c ated.] Mn. Editor:?As tho condition of orops, &c., havo beon hoard from, from sovoral por tions of our District through your paper, I will troublo The Newh with some observations, while on a "little tramp" through the upper portion of the Fork. The people goncrally nrc ''wide awake" in viow of the coming election, and aro promptly organizing Democratic Clubs. A few days ago, one was organized ?t ^h)oky Grove Church ; and great interest was manifested in its success by the lurgo number who havo en rolled themselvea, under tho banner of "Sey mour and Blair." The subject of "Foreign Immigration'' seems to havo considerable at tention ; and many nro willing to off or induce ments, as soon ns it is properly and fairly laid before the public. We came near coming in contact with ouo of the "Grant. Emisaiios" who passed through that section ; aud who I suppqao has pasaed or will pass, through your villago. He relates (to tho Black Bads) that he is acut for the purpose of securing the names of those colored men, who voted the Democratic ticket; so that our Pump Congress may put thorn in bondage for ono. hundred years. This piece of viiliany has been promulgated with aaeh candor, earn' cstitcas and deceitful prejudice, that it has doue a great deal ua.ro mischief than one would suppp; o. Those who were hot and con tinued Radicals ..re still move olo.'jcly joined to their idol; while those wI\o voted with us or did not vote at nil seem doubtful a^ to how the game will end. I did not huvc the pleasure of seeing this gentleman of the Grant stamp ; but he is represented as beiug a huge mulatto; but calls himself a lucuehuian. When he ar rived at the plantation (tho negro quailcr, lato atTnight) of Mr. J. A. Salley, ho was nu'nu-. shoes, hat and coat, which garments he report ed as being lost, in ch:ising a (white) Demo crat*.], a few miles above there, who being of tho tame nativity, had made an Esau or him self, and deserved death at his hands. Ho failed to sooure his prizo, on account of the Democrat -'-taking the swamp." Tho "Head man" among the Bads suuimoncd n caucus; and after '^Mature deliberation," it was agreed that all on the plantation should contribute to equip.this Mm-ieur gentlemen, in order that - he might pioeeod without delay on his nil-im portant business: It was decided thai, us chiekeu-roost wore less dangerous of approach ut a late hour of t ho night, and not so weighty, squoaly at.l easy of dote -.ion. as a contribu tion of pigiucat, the nocossary funds should bo raised by contributions of chickens, to bo sent to tho nosreat barter-depot of such things, generally. One on tlto plantation,?a hard working fellow, haviug a slight spriukle about hiui of Domoeraey,?refused to havo anything to do with the affair; but "Olo Man" with rifle in baud, and the ^Monsieur" man with pistol girded to sido, followed; aud coming upou tho poor fellow iu his field, hard at work, demanded tho uoutribution, "Chickens or Death''" beiug the cry. The chickeus were "forked over," much to tho dissatisfaction of tho troubled mind and himgry stomach of thu freed man. Would it be anything ainiss for our clubs to appoint a "Vigilant Committee" to attend to such characters ?* It is evident thoy arc prowling about tho country continual ly, doing serious injury aud should bo nrrcsted as "Vagrants." Wo had tho pleasure of being present at the meeting of the Pino Dog Democratic Club. It has been recently gotten up, but can show a long roll of souud Democrats. Tho mooting was addressed by Captain John C- Humphries, of Alabama, on tho Phronological, Ethnologi cal, Anatomical aud Natural difference between the Anglo-Saxon and negro races. A great deal of doop thought and olosc iuvestigntion was evinced by tho speaker ; and tho subject was handled, as well on we wcro able to dis cern, with much ability. Tho planters all through this section have iiuo corn crops, although somewhat injured by tho bot weather a few weeks ago. Proportion ately, very little cotton is planted. In every instance where the crops have been properly worked they aro better (hah lust yea;-. One very good reason for this, is, that the planter has not only learnod to manage freo labor to.' greater tul vantage but the experience of the lar.t two years has shown, conclusively, that ho cannot tend near as much to ihc horse or to tho band as formerly. When we can nnni | bilate Radicalism, (which ! boj o will be next J November.) dem dish Frocdmen Bureaus, and demonstrate practically, that the negro is de pendent on tho while man,?then I hope our (ioldfl will blons?mSu* of yore, and tho smiles of peace and plenty lie toco on every face TON. * [To the query ?>f cur entertaining corrcepon dont; we would 'iay thai suoli ehaiaoters uhouhl not bu allowed to prowl thybuKh the country, hut that means strictly !.v.yful:'..jul.l b?'ad?pt'cd foi tho Blip prccdion of this oyil.

They ihould brace themaelves for tho light, with a determination lo win. They hhould be vigilaut, earnest, active, and leave as littlo ho possible to bliauco. They r.hould nominate good men for all office* to bo filled tltifl yoav. and then work foi them with a will. They should make it their business to refute every slander circulated about their candi dates. ? ?? i They should organiac clubs in every county, village and township, and attend tho meetings regularly. They should engage popular speakers when ever they can, and invite their Republican neighbors to hear thorn. They should discountenance all disorderly proceedings, and show by oxirnple that they aro friends of law and fair dealing. They should subscribe for. and read, and get thoiff friends to read, good Democratic papers, and distribute such papers, among their Re publican acquaintances. They should realize that newspapers are use ful engines to move public opinion, nnd deal with thorn accordingly. They should support their local papers Orst and then Rapport n good Democratic paper, which can generally give them much more in formation than papers published in small towns. Cut their first duty is to subscribe lor the looal paper,cud puy for it. Mon who think that editors can give time nnd labor for nothing still havo a good deal to learn, and ihould :-ot about learning it as soon as possible. Domoorats should keep their eyes wide open and not bo afraid to look at tho futuro. They should also glance occasionally at the the part and take note of bow the ship is drift ing from her moorings. They should not be afraid to talk plainly aud boldly und let their opponents know that they are ready for action. They .should contribute to tho support of Democratic organizations and understand that tho money will return to them in reduced taxes: Day and night they should he on tho alert, and kco that not i single Democratic veto is lost by indifibrcut c.
