TELE ORANGEBURQ NEWS SATURDAY, MAY 29, 186?. THAD. C. ANDREWS, Editor. MALCOLM I. BROWNING, Anociate J. FELDER MEYERS, Anociatt. The Orangeburff News and tiie Reporter. Our M?dbfernay: tc?o^ibot seeing in our columns some time sinee an article beaded. "7^9 -A^es^cr Reporter as a CrksVi?i? wbieb wetaoiieeda criticism, of that paper upon an editorial in the News, entitled "The Ides. '6f Match/ That criticism was of rather a literary ~t)U1JJ JUMW .Iffgi?

But the Reporter seems inclined to fret i ' i ? w ' continue 01 rather to renew its attack ?au w^oid Jk?* i .A ' j>*L .I upon us, and in its issue of tho 13th of lVJjry has tlWi/ir/ti^qifwhieh we copy be low in which while pretending to criti cise an article hi' the'News' issue of May 8th., takes occasion to. shew itself very quarrelsome and to say some very rpitrfu' things of us. , Here is the article from the Reporter: The Orangeuuiiu News, Auain. y^VVe hope our readers will not regard us quarrelsome, nor thatwc are moved byf-any special spite against the News, because of certain articles which have appeared in our columns, whereof tbo News was the subject. We entertain a high appreciation of tho typographical virtues of said paper, and of the taste displaye 1 in the selec tion of its literary and miscellaneous extracts, but wc do most seriously de precate much that its Editorials pro claim. A Radical paper, openly and avowedly advocating with all its might, the prin ciples and doctrines of that part"; tilling its editorial Columns with arguments and assertions tending to stifle in the breast of every South Carolinian, whoso misfortune it is to fall within the reach of their baleful influence, feeling, honor and duty, sees fit to affect a holy horror, because the Charleston Acte? places it and the Darlington Southmet; in the ly^l^Mjpy at Radical newspapers published As regards the Southerner, wc have not as y^ct been able to fix its political ttatus. Judging from the statements of ! the Darjington Democrat, wc incline to the belief, that the Southerner, has becu properly classified by the Charleston Actes. Tho ObangkBUG News, in announc ing its political creed claims that, com luuuicutions and editorial articles stand upon the same footing. In that, while it publishes all communications regard less of politics, it has a right to publish editorial matter, which shall be exempt from the ciiticism of its cotempnraries, articles upon which no conclusions as to its political convictions arc to be based. Now, we think, no correct idea of the character and politics of a paper can bo obtained outside the editorial columns. There wc arc to look for that, which is supposed to bo the expression of opinions and ideas by which the paper is t, be judged. Further on it defines Radical ism, and in so many words declares it the priuciplc by which slavery was des troyed. That wc do not deny, nor that it is done, regret. But when the ORANGE burg News asserts, that the Southern pcoplo rose in arms, solely for the pur poso of perpetuating African Slavery, we" assure it, that it is in error. Other and greater wrongs, of which it is now needless to speak, called upon Southern manhood for vindication. Again, the News is in error, in concluding that what it calls "old deep rooted prejudice" is the barrcr which rises to prevent our falling into the arms of Radicalism. Slavery is a thing of the past, and as wc said above, we do not regret it. Freed from servitude, none feel a greater in terest than ourselves, in seeing the black man rise to a condition worthy of a f: man. The prejudice of which it speaks doos not attach to the past, but to tho prcsont. We caunot coincide with the Xkws in its oft repeated laudations of the Radi cal party, in und out of this State. We connot agree that men, many of whom are bankrupt in character, should infest our Stato and occupy our high places, to the exclusion of native born citizens. Wc never will admit that ignorance, combined with the vilest corruption, should enact laws for the government of this people. Are these tbo issues which tho News thinks cannot bo "evaded"? Js this "tho situation!' wo arc advised by the News to aocept? Good Lord deliver us !. For its contemptuous allusion to"Deiu (xT.itie Clubs," wc fool greatly inclined to say something bitter, but for. the pre sent refrain. We ihm sorry to learn from - ?sge ??i the News, that "many intelligent and influential men" in Urungcburg County, C0HCiWllMy Wnff^^M'' vrww/ Iff* IpiriH^ profession of political creed made by tho Nkws,,^ we are unublo to arrive at any other conclusion than that the News docs not deny beiug Radical, but some how dislikes to be so called. Now we call attention to the fact that tho attack?a very spiteful one?comes ftom tho Reporter) wc are simply upon the defensive, we would also ask our readers to notice the very unfair manner in wttl&Httiiln^oiftw* tiMrskaqxsu^/lllsrt critical paper docs not'publish the arti cle in the News,, iu its columns,' and mmstfwrfw auietf m ami nt nah l.tb^^cr^eujo.i^.,,!^ doesi; not quote or i'00|tf.,o?ne,sipgle!sei*d?nco of. our ..articlo ?docs not.oven say once, in its critique 'wh'nt is the article, that is under ItM his ?nuhic tVoaVtndfii.:' ft only" tells its"'read ! 1.0J . e?ewort, r?n ?l .vlWofeua ers in its own words, aim in its oicn way T ?emtag * fo notiairluDa 'n 1 * ?? rrs4fl i NY hat i lie . News says, (and even says I somethings for the News, aud thou crit icizes and abuses us. Now for the readers of tho Reporter, who,,f wo can imagiue, must bo very much avuujed and edified by such a mode of presenting to their notice a discus sion, n criticism, or n qitttrrrl, in which their valiaht little paper has so boldly and rashly engaged itself. Wb have only to say to them, that if the Reporter would only publish the article which it criticizes, we would be assured of our vindieutiuu. if the Reporter would do this, insert our article and then criticize j it; its readers could sec the truth of the matter and would, no doubt, agree with us, that while the Reporter is a very "good little paper," in its way, td pub lish local matters, aud copy from atid endorse the pieces in the Charleston pa pers, when it "assume* the roh of the critic," it makes a very poor "out." of it. If our owu readers, who must admit that we have taken a fairer method of treating the matter, and one better cal culated to let them sec "what is the mutter," we ask indulgence while we in> tice this onslaught of the Reporter. Our readers have seen the article enti tled "The OitANOEurno News" us our paper of May 8th. This is the article which the Reporter is prating about. Iu it wc embodied the political oroed of our paper. We said that wc had "accepted the situation" that - is "freedom and citi zenship of the colored man," and thought that this was the only way in which the evils, under which the people of the State now groan, could be met and removed. Unless u-c accepted the situation, men whom perhaps wc would like less than those who had common sense now to do so, would come from abroad and occupy the places of power This is our belief as to the political con dition of our Stato. For this expression of our opinion, the Reporter culls the News "Radical," and goes ou to abuse no iu language as near "hifalutcu" as we suppose thai paper can ascend. The Reporter says: "The Ouanoe nrno News in announcing its political creed claims that communications und editorial articles stands upon one foot ing," aud that "editorial matter should be exempt from criticism," aud "no con clusions us to its political convictions should bo based upon them." Three distinct statements, which the Reporter makes for us. The Oranueuuuo News in the article of May 8th, Bays : "while we open our columns to communica tions of whatever political complex ion, wc reserve to our editorial col umns the privilege accorded to all others, that of writing what we think." As to criticism, we said nothing at ull about it. Fair nnd intelligent criticism we invite, and arc evcu noticing the un fair and nondescript criticism of this Reporter. As to "no couclusions being based upon editorial articles," we said this was where to look for the political opinions of the paper and asked that our editorials be read "without prejudice and be taken iu connection with caeh other." The Reporter next says that wc de fine Radicalism, and attribute to it the destruction of slavery. The News said that the progress of thought and the human mind demanded of us tho emancipation of our slaves. If this is lladicalism, we must think tho name will lose all its odium horcaftcr. If to put ourselves in tho progress of civilization, und to grapple with tho new aqd mighty issues of to-day is to bo radical, Ood speed the tiue when the )rrect world will bo Had leal. However the Reporter winds itself up hcre-r? corners I rtoolf, and then says, "we j^n?)deny,j|| j we agree with the N kwe. ^ Tbo Reporter then goes lie "errors" of the NEwfi^That !Wr Southern pcoplo did not rise\ solely to save slavery." Oh I well, we will not bandy words with this "Reporter. Thero. may have have been somo little side issues but every one to-day realizes that the great question at {mj^ewjas slavery or not. 9 The next two or three lines, our read ers have before theui?perhaps the I Nkws is annihilated by them?perhaps they are nonsense ; we admit we do sec ftoV'What 'tbo' ^Reporter aimed at. It says: "Prejudice is'not what preveuts pcoplo accepting the situation, which it Calls Radicalism." 'I hen: ??none feel a greater interest than ourselves in seeing tho black man rise tp a condition worthy of d/r cent fin.''- ? ?o ttbo R'-jtoricr does "accept the position," that is the free dom aud citizenship of the black mtitt. This is all the News docs, and tho News is Radical. The'Reporter does the same and the Rfpprter is radical. Oh ! la ! that ? Reporter is a phuuny phcllow ! Hero he is cornered again, aud in his coufusion utters the following : ' The prejudice of which it speaks does not ah tach to the past but to the present." We have done our best to unravel that or to see its pertinence to the Reporter's abuse of us, but give up in despair. Wc can only say that Reporter is impertinent. The R'ejioi'fW rall'cs again and says: "Wc cannot agree that men. bankrupt in character, &c, should occupy our govern ment to the exclusion of native born citi zens." Tho News docs not pgreo to it either, und advises "native bum citizens" to meet the issues of the situation, and waiving fruitless prejudices and lament.', themselves to accept these positions. The "issues" which have been settled tor us are the cufranchi*cnient of those whom prejudice would make us accept only as slaves. These issues have been settled by the voice of mankind as in his progress he discovers new truths in tho moral world, aud new principles in tho material world, have been settled by [the stern fiat of victory ! The Reporter after all this unfair treatment, till this distortion, all this misconstruction, all this spiteful abuse, thou threatens to say "something bit ter." We arc not scared. Wc only ask the Reporter to deal fairly, and we shrink from no discussion. We invite lair and intelligent criticism. Wc dare the Re porter to publish the article which it criticises in its columns. Had it pur sued this course, the article itself would have been its own vindication, and the readers of the Reporter could themselves have seen how weak was the criticism, and bow undeserved the abuse which we have 'cccivcd. Pursuing the course the Rfijwrtrr has done, while its readers cannot see the weakness of their paper's criticism, and how undeserved is its abuse, it must strike them how ungenerous and unfair is its course. While our views are not those of the old Democratic party in this State?as we have said?they are honest and true, and honestly believed to be tbo best for our people, and we repeat that we invite fair and intelligent criticism and discus sion. The Oranoeblru Nkws. Opens its Eves.?The Ohanuedurg Nkws. one of the two Radical papers published in the couutry district of South Carolina, is very bold, till at once, in its denuncia tion of the Orangeburg ami Charleston Radicals. It says: ''We have had too many low drunken exhibitions 011 the tapis lor the hist two months, for the good of the party?and if true Republicans don't take hold of the matter wc will, as u party organiza tion, go to the dogs bead foremost. There is but one way for us to remain respec table and carry weight with those who differ with us in politics, and to enhance the interest of the true and honest of our party, and that is to crush out the dishonest element now at work for the entire disruption of our organization." Again: "We said in our last issue that wc did not oxpect to meddle much in politics? but 'circumstances alter cases'?and wo intend to pull our gloves off for awhile, and if we can add a little respectability to the Republican party of Oraugoburg County we intend' to do so, aud with ungloved- hands wo will handle those who have, and who ?tili persibt iu tnak irjg it a hiss and afcofF iu tho eyes of roe pectublo end decent people." Acd this i* tho choicest bit of nil . "Tho disgraceful exhibitions or perfor mances of tbo City Couucil of Charleston are an orerhir.ting disgrace to the Ilepub licans and citizens ot Charleston. Such men must be kept out of office. Such disgraceful scones, brought about by low bred scoundrels who have worked them selves*' into position in tho Republican party, must bo stopped, and the sooucr the,better for nil concerned. Wo think that poor Charleston has suffered trem endously and she has our sincere sym pathy. If she can possibly bear this last horrible affliction, a brighter day will yet dawn for her. Suoh scamps as now dis grace her City Council are short-lived, und we hope their ond will be the hal ter." This is brave talking, but the Nkws will soon learn that it will not bo per mitted to hold with the hare and run with tho hounds ; or iu other Wurth), to be a Radical paper and expose the '?cor ruption, dishonesty and fraud" of the Radical party. It must either take Rad icalism with all its faults, or come over to the side, not of Democracy, pei haps, but of honest, straightforward opposition to the party which is doing its best to ruin our people and the State. Which course docs the News prefer? The caption of the above article is put Ut us in the form of a query, intended to elicit, or extract from us a declaration which wc nevci expect to make, viz; that wc will advocate the woru out and jaded principles of-Bom ?Oi?cy. Uut if the Charleston D"ihy Xctc* above rpintcd from, is really desirous to know whether it is our intention to belong to the Re publican party and thus to denounce the dishonesty and indecencies which may occur in it. or whether we intend to throw a vail, or covering over any thing (hit partakes of dishonesty, every thing from which honest men would recoil with disgust, horror and repugnance, wc du without any hesitancy whatever, pro nounce the former to be our determined course. But before we g > further with this?we might say scorn-extorted definitions of the policy and politics of our paper?we repudiate and dmy the epithet "Radical" being in any wi.-e ap plicable to or characteristic of the views entertained by ^helcditors of the ?HANUKUL'lUi NKVfe. fjhiro is a UlfTCiuOoi , *fj^hn*e?< ,..]. A,,, n >(<,>,i porary knows it, a striking dissimi larity between R idioulistu and Republ" canism. t hese is no approximating of I the two terms, and while we profess and publish, that we <tre Republicans, aud I intend to advocate Conservative Repub lican principle.-, wj shriuk uervjusly from the idea of ever allying ourselves to the principles or doctrines inculcated by extreme Radicals, by men who hive nothing iu view but an inordinate desire for gain, for the means by which to live with little or no regard to the mode and means in which it is obtained. No, wc consider St our high.-, duty and privi. icge to expose, aud make an opou exhi bition of every thing that could be pre judicial to the public interest and welfare of our country. And this is more than any Democratic journal has ever had the boldness or honesty to do, with the evi dent frauds perpetrated by that party ; there is not upo.i record a single instance where a demoerat ie newspaper ever damned its party by stripping it of its mask of conventional delusions by attempting to expose any of the corrup tions, certainly known to have occurred iu the democratic party, while this course of ? straight forward honesty, and opposition to wrong," has always been a distinguishing feature with true Republi can journals. We regard it our duty to put down wrong iu our party, this is our right, our privilege, and we claim it upon the same principle that Daddy claimed when he whipped his wife, but no third party had better interfere or attempt to assist in ministering the correction. The iVeic* goes on to say th it we stig matized our regular candidate for School Commissioner as a tborso thief, and wore bold in advocating Mr. Win. Mount, an independent candidate. Well, does the Aces s"" anything wrong in this ' because we knew Edward Cain to be an ignoramus and a disreputable one at that, and totally unfit for the office for which he was backed mainly by a few greedy white men, and iu cousoquenco of which we opposed him. is that '?holding with the hare and running with the hounds?" On the contrary it is a course that every houcst man will cu* do?*-" !!?; right ?'ue. W*e advocated Mr. Mount because wc knew him to be honest, upright and intelligent, a man in whose breast double dealing and dis honesty finds no place of lodgment. Wc will always be as quick in de nouncing "corruption, dishonesty* and fraud" us the Charleston Daily Neics, hut tho manner and stand-point from which we shall do it, cannot he assigued to us by Hadieal Democratic journals. Chicago claims to hold the most valu able horse iu America, "Bashaw, Jr., for which 8^5,000 bus lately beeu re fused. KU'orts are making in England to amalgamate the two branches of the I profession, by abolishing the distinction j between attorneys and barristers. Captain \\. 11. Fletcher, a prominent citizen of Duwson, Georgin, and univer sally esteemed, was shot and instantly killed a few days since. John Lee has confessed the deed, and is now in jail to answer. Those Englishmen who oppose the proposition to legalize marriage with a deceased wife's histcr, urge that sueh a license would result in must horrible jealousy, and that wives would never allow their sisters to visit them when their husbands were at home.
