The Coming Township Elections.
ttpm.. -
Oa the 14th of this mouth the elec
tion ?F officers for the several Townships
of this Couuty, provided for iu an Act
passed by ;tho Logisluture at the Special
Session of 1868, to organize Townships,
_i *<3ij ; will oomo off, and wo admonish
those wKfeel an interest iu tho local
^as*saaef our County, to bo up and a doing.
Already wc hear of meetings being
?alUd in several portions of our County
^under Democratic auspices, and over
whose deliberations the goddess Demo
cracy, pr aristocracy?terms synonymous
?is once more invoked to preside. From
the pale of some of theso meetings, wc
Understand, the colored people arc ex
cluded, and uene but white men aro iu
jri^edfj .or: allowed to attend. Such
doings! such proceedings! Are they
not enough iu tho magnitude of the
evils which wo know will result from
thorn, to make those who desire to see
our countty advance and grow in pros
perity, talk ? Is it not time for men who
have the lovo of tho country at hoait, to
speck 1 yea, yea, yoa !
The Daily Newt may rave and turn
Its typo upside down, the Chester A'c
jportcr may denominate us "radical," or
attach to our paper auy other vile cog
nomen or epithet for what wc are going
to say about these democratic Township
elections, but we don't care; we nrc sin
cere, wo arc earnest, and not to be de
terred or swerved from pursuing tho
course which we conceive to bo tho right
^?ne. Democratic Township meetings!
excluding from thorn tho colored voters!
O, wisdom, wisdom, how few arc they
^who walk in thy footsteps?
Our duties we consider paramount,
and wo should uot bo faithful iu dis
charging the obligations which wc owe
to the community, wcro wo to neg
lect to speak of impending evils, were
we not prompt in trying to avert issues,
and questions, which if furthered, must
prove detrimental to the material pros
ten, in the first place, wo protest
against the policy adopted by the whites
in some of the local Townships of this
County?a policy at war with, and di
ametrically opposite to our best interests.
Tho exclusion of the colored people from
participation iu these meetings, extend
ing to them uo iuvition when their color
is known to be in the miuority. An as
sertion of so much independence, so pal
pable a manifestation of the animus of ]
a spirit bebt on ruling, and showing
them no quarters where they are not in
the majority. This, this is what we
utter our solemn protest against. Wc
don't say the colored men must occupy
these offices, far from it, but we say show
by your actions that you aro willing for
them to select iu part with you the men
who shall fill them, and if you do not, it will
be giving them good uud ample cause to
believe that it is only wheu they ure in the
majority that you have any use for them
or their votes, and that wherever invita
tions have been given to them, it was
for policy's and not thoir interest's sake.
And where tho whites aro iu excess
of the colored voters, you call your
meetings with the distinct understanding
that it is to be a white mau's meeting.
This is wisdom?this is tho course by
which you expect to adjust the differ
ences existing between the two races, to
bring about au amicable feeling among
the different classes; this the way to se
cure their votes for somo white men of
probity and intelligence in some future
occasion, when there will bo more im
portant questions at stake than the trif
ling issues involved in a Township elec
tion. Answer us yc modern Solomons,
and blush for tho folly of your mis
guided and misdirected ambition; toll
us ye local philosophers and politicians
of the nineteenth century, is this tho
way, this the mauuer in which you ex
pect to furthor and augment the interest
of your country ? Wc trow not.
If such, a courso was nut so complete
ly unwise, and stupidly impolitic, it
would be something worse?a courso cal
eulated to wield an influence against us
in the future, and put into men's mouths
U weapon to uso to the injury of our
race. What is the use to kick gainst
the pricks? To try and rtvado qnos
tioiiB nnd facts ineoutrovertibly catub
lishod; truths the permanence of which
everything around us testifies to, moro or
less; the inevitable aud irrevocable
hand of destiny has freed, has enfruu
cbised the black man, and victory,
against tho wishes of many who now ac
cept tho situation, has placed at his ex
-:? -.11 .1._j ?_
civiou nil tue jiiinivgvo uu\t iiiini uu ibiwo
which the whito men onjoy, so far as^
law is concerned. His freedom, his en
franchisement made Olio of tho funda
mental principles of the American Con- j
stitutfou, then why alienate, or estraugo
him absolutely aud forever from voting
with the whites'( It has been proved
that when, in a general election, ono
race is arrayed against the other, they
can outnumber us. Hence we say that
we should endeavor to show thorn wo are
not in opposition to thoir race. Our
duty, our interest, our nation's prosperi
ty demands it of us, and surely -wo can
forego the little milky conceit of our own,
for the benefit of questions so important
as these!
Now, there is no better timo for mak
ing a demonstration of these than in the
coining Township elections?cull your
meetings, extcud to the black man an in
vitation, and show him that you arc solicit
ous of his voting with you and wo doubt
not that be will do it.
This is the course we advise as bciug
iu our opiuiou the best' for us all. We
know that many liberal and sensible
readers of the News, after reflecting
over the matter calmly, will agree with
us that this is the proper course for our
people to pursue. Will one Township
follow the road dictated by us, and some
friend of the News give us the result?
Stale Taxation?Two 11 und ml
Per Cent. Added to the Assess
ment of Real Property in Or
angeburg County.
A perusal of the tubular statements of j
the valuution and assessment just pre
pared by the State Hoard of Equalisa
tion, reveals the startling fact that two
hundred per cent, has been added to the
assessment ot Heal Property in Orange
burg County. This has been added by
the State Hoard to the Assessment made
by the County returns and assessments,
gyrj^e^returji^f^he^
made tho valuation of Heal Property in
this County $1,444,069, and the State
Board made it 4,332,207.
Tho Charleston Daily tVeirs in com
menting upon the additions made by the
State Hoard says: "whether the increased
assessment was made by simple rule of
thumb or from information in possession
of the Hoard," it has no means of know
ing.
Now it must be noticed that the addi
tion to the assessment made in the ease
of Oraugcburg County is greater by 100
per cent, than that made iu any other
County iu the State.
This would show that the returns
made of property in this County bail
beeu dishonestly lower than in any other
County in the State. This insinuated
imputation wc repudiate. Hut it is upon
no chimera or fancied slander that we
would protest against this treatment of j
our County. It is because our lands
were valued at their full market value,
aud iu many case* higher than their
market value in the assessment made and
equalized by the County Hoard, and that
this increased valuation of the real pro
perty in tho County is disproportionate,
unequal und unjust, that we protest
utruinst it. It is because this increased
and exorbitant taxation cannot be paid,
that we protest against it.
Two-thirds of our people?nay, nino
tciitbs of them cannot pay it, and in
anticipation of the executions, levies and
sales that must ensue, wc protest against
it.
Blighted by the accidents of war, pe
culiarly felt, our County bus been strug
gling to regain her former status. In
dustry and economy have triumphed
over disorganization nud disadvantages of
the new state of nffairs, and over bud
soasorts, only to be consumed by this ig
norant und unequal taxation. Whether
this action of tho State Board was due
to "information iu their possession or
whethor made by simplo rule of thumb,''
we cry out against it as iu famous?we
protest against it as a wrong.
Wo might cxpiato upon tho subject
under tho burning sense of wrong re
ceived, but forbear. We have said
enough.
A disproportionate increase has been
made to the- taxes of our people, and we
protest against it as a wrong uud de
maud a redress of the grievance.
Bad Advisers.?Sotno of the cx
troino Democratic papers of tho North,
with the so-called Democratic World at
tho head arc still lavish of thoir disin
terested (?) udvice to tho people of the
South, 'ihey are especially extravagant
in counsel to tho "unreconstructed"
voters of Virginia, Mississippi and Texas
begging them to rejoct their Stute Con
stitutions whenever and in whatever
form presented. One of their principal
rad objects is to prevent the ratification
of tho Fifteenth Amendment, as they do
not wish tho mere hundful of negroes at
tho North to vote.
The reader will remember that Con
gress has made tho ratification of the
fifteenth Admendmcut a condition pre
cedent to the restoration or admission of
Virgiuiu, Mississippi and Texas to tho
Union. So our dear Democratic friends
of tho North would have those States
remain "out iu the cold" indefinitely if
they will only reject oil the terms offered
by Congress?terms, wc admit, uot ac
ceptable to them, but certainly the best
terms they can get.
It will be a long time, we imagine, be
loro the Southern people will again be
fouud under the iuflucucc and leadership
of such journals as tho New York World
?journals which have no real interests
in common with us, and which tire sim
ply actuated by motives of personal in
terest.
It has now been more than four years
since the work of reconstruction com
menced. During that time all the
Southern States except Yirgiuia Mis
sissippi and Texas has been, after a fash
ion, admitted into the Union. It is pre
sumed, therefore, that nil our people
have learned something from experience,
that greatest of till teachers; uud espe
cially, that the voters of the three "uu
reconstructcd" States are now the best
judges of the course proper for them to
pursue. Jii view of these facts, the im
pudent dictati >n of the Marble-hearted
Word and its coadjutors will, and
of right should not exert the slightest
influence.
Uet these advisers of the South attend
to their own business, und we will at
tend to ours. They' have already done
us incalculable barm, as wc nil know to
our sorrow.? Wilmington Star.

Tue Tax Biel.?Somebody proposes
the following new amendments to the
tax bill:

For kissing A homely one. two dollars
?the extra, amount being added proba
bly for the man's lolly.
For ladies kis>ing one another, two
dollars. Tho tax is placed at this rate
iu ordoi to break up the custom altogeth
er, it being regarded by mir M. (Vs as a
piece of inexcusable absurdity.
For every flirtation, ten cents.
Every young man who has more than
one girl is taxed five dollars.
For courting in the kitchen, twenty
five cents.
Courting iu u romantic place, live dol
lars, and fifty cents thereafter.
Seeing a lady home from church,
twenty-live cents.
Going from church without accom
panying a lady, live dollars.
Seeing a lady home from the Mine
Society, five cents?the proceeds to be
devoted to the relief of disabled army
chaplains. %
For ladies who paint, fifty cents.
For wearing a low-necked dress, one
dollar.
For each curl on a lady's head above
ten, live cents.
For any unfair device for entrapping
young men into matrimony, live dollars.
For wearing hoops larger than eight
feet in circumference, eight cents for
each hoop.
Old bachelors over thirty arc taxed
ten dollars, and banished to Utah.
Each pretty lady is to be taxed from
twenty five cents to twenty-live dollars:
she is to fix the estimate of her own
beauty. It is thought a very large
amount is to be realized from this pro
vision.
Each boy baby, fifty cents.
Each girl baby, ten cents.
Families having more than eight ba
bies are 11 t to be taxed ; and for twins a
premium of forty dollars will be paid
out of the fund accruing from tax on old
bachelors.
Each Sunday loafer on the street cor
ners or about church doors to be taxed
his value, which is about two cents.
If well-seasoned shingles be dipped in
lime wash, and dried before laying, they
will hist much longer, and not become
covered with moss.
The New Orleans Times expresses uti
bounded astonishment that Mr. Henry
S. Foote was a member of tho Memphis

On the (juestion of tho surgical separa
lion of the Siamese Twins. ''Chaug and
Mug," says Sir James Simpson, "have
themselves no desire to be surgically
divided from each other. But some of
their relatives and families have become
anxious that they should be separated,
if it were p ssiblc to do so. 'J he opera
tion is certainly possible, and would be
attended with little, ur indeed, no diffi
culty, but it would be Si> pcrillous in it?
character, that the twins could not. in
my opinion, be justified in submitting t >
it. or any surgeon be justified in perfor
ming it." lie then enters into detail
to justify this opinion. Chung und hug
are married to two sisters, the daughters
of an American clergyman. Kaub brother
has nine children The family of Eng
consists <if ?ix sons and three daughter.--;
the family of Chang consists of three
sous and six daughters. Their first
children were boru within three or four
days of each other; the other at irregu
lar inter; als. Chang's ninth child was
born three mouths ago.
,^ir W. Ferguson has carefully ex
amined the twins, and. understood, con
curs iu the general opinion of surgeons
that any surgical separation would be
most likely attended with fatal conse
quences, not so much on account of any
obstacle presented by the structure of
