THE ORANGEBURG NEWS SATURDAY, AUGUST 14, 1869. MALCOLM i. BROWNING, Muor. g^gggg ' ' ? To the Readers or tue Orange boro Nk\Y8.?Havtug transferred my interest in tht News Office to Mr. W. A. Edwards, I respectfully bid ynu fare well for ?while. I bespeak a liberal showing fur my successor. THAD. C. ANDREWS. In taking full control of the Oranoe ttvka News, we have engaged the facile pea of Mr. Malcolm I. Browuiog for a time. In advocating true Republican ism, we expect to bring to bear all the talent of tho Conservative clement of our County, and are about to make arrange ments for that purpose. We solicit com munications of a liberal character from every {Mart of our county and country. And shall endeavor, by every exertion in our power to keep the News up to its present bigh standing as the best papor ever published in this section of country. HALL & EDWARDS, Publishers and Proprietors. ?ur Position To-Day. Time, in its unwindings, is developing the iseucs of history. The situation of no to-day is exactly that of its yesterday. The relations of parties to events, which, they would control or to which thoy must submit, is so complex, that infinite Wisdom alone, can trace, through tho labyriuththin crossings of policies the gelA? thread of Truth. Among the de velopments of the political position of the South, the prominent points which stand forth as irrevocable facts, and stamped with the immutability of Truth, are the death of the old Democratic school of politics, and the enfranchise ment and citizenship of the colored man. This last fact in the true position, stands fixed, a star in the political firmauent, and a conviction, admitted and accepted hy all living parties to-day. Wo have professed, as wc feit, that the Radical organization was our only hope for the restoration of tho peace and prosperity of the South. We have be come disgusted with the corruption ex isiiug in this organixation, and their sys tem of rather declining to receive and' admit, Southern men wbo irould oomc forward and accept a situation which they deem inevitable Thoy would prefer 10 tamper with the colored-moo, and themselves secure all the emoluments and offices of their party organisation. We say that, disgusted with this system and this corruptiou, we avow the determination of the Orangeburq News, to support any or ganization that pledges itself to univer sal suffrage and universal amnesty, aud what we mean by this is that every body shall be permitted to vote aud to hold office. We think that we can with souie pro priety appeal to the Press of the State calmly to consider our suggestious and our position, with the hope that our course may be generally approved and adopted by others and that au oca of good feeling may be inaugurated. We would also appeal to the citizens e? our county to bear and consider our views. Political opinions arc not principles. Men and their opinions change, with the dcvelopcments of events and their own appreciation of them, but principles, like the God who established them, arc immutable.; We have ever advocated upon the side of the true situation of to-day, hon esty and intelligence, as opposed to cor ruption and igsoranoe, and we stand forth tawkiy fco advocate any organiza tion^, which, accepting those primal ele ments in. out situation, promises to give as upon, just and liberal principles, what we so much need, peace in the enjoy ment of a good government, administer ed by uptight and intelligent men. And we would prefer that these nigh bo Southerner*, men born- among us, or men indentificd with our interosbs aa<L hopes. Nothing in our situation bid1 us des pair. Let Southern men submit to tho fate of war, let thorn submit to a situa tion which, cannot bo obviated, and turn ft into good. A resolution to take these facts ia- our position as they stand, and work them into good, fur our country i* the clear and imperative duty of the citizen and the patriot. ??_: ? : a.pafia_?_istsasm A Conservative Republican party in our State, composed of its honest and in telligent men, ia all that can turn tho in fluence of these events into proper chan nels. - A recreant to duty ia that man who would falter in his course now, a en . ven to public opinion is he who would fail to take a position now which his heart tells him is his duty. Men of the South ! you who upon her battle-fields could stand in her defence and meet the dread shock of conflict, fail not now, becauso public sent im out would lift tho finger of calumny and mark you with odium. Meet this us you met the avalanche of war's mutilation. You will not long be misunderstood, nor mistaken for the Radical. Duty fear If ssly met and discharged, brings its own high victory and reward. You will be understood, and your owu heart will bloss you. Leave to women to kusol forever uround loved graves of the past. From those very graves, hallowed and holy shrines of patriotism, spring flowers that speak of hope, voices that bid you as men, be ''up and doing." "Lot the dead pnst bury its dead, Act, act io the living present, Heart within and God o'crhead." 1 When the history of these times shall be written and read by people yet to be, the recoid will be, that the Southern people sank into a romantic and touch ing lethargy, and in sheer supineucss of despair, lost their nationality?lost their sunny land. Miscegenation, oblivion can be avert ed by ourselves alone. Let us meet the issues of the hour ! By that past to which you cling with with such pathetic love, by those graves where sleep our fullcu, who did their duty in their position so nobly aud so well?we bid you arouse; meet the hard duties of our .-itnation In their heroic discharge lies our only hope. The Onanokburg News appeals to j its cotemporarios and the people of its County, iu taking its position to-day. A conservative and u pure eleinout in the Republican party of this country, will, beyond all question, restore this Southern land to a status of equality and prosperity. i How otherwise tfnrt hv an ^y^ni?i tion of this party in our Stute are the evils of corruption, beneath which we groan, to be removed ? Is uot the Democratic party powerless for good 'I Docs not its very meution call forth the dogged and obstinate op position of the colored people, and of the masses at the North ? Yes! these things you know and real ize. The people need but a leudor in whom they have faith, to adopt these convictions, which alone cau prevail for good. At least, understand us to be advo cates of a submission to inevitable fuets, advocates of Universal Suffrage and Amnesty, on tho side of intelligence, honesty and virtue. The Condition and Prospect of / South Carolina. -A / The interest taken by rh? Georgia press in the affairs of South Carolina is very gratifying to our people ; but when we find it gravely asserted in the col umns of the Macon Telegraph that "all tho material int -rest of Carolina arc more completely paralyzed than those of the other cotton States, and tbe evi dences of recuperation arc manifesly more slow aud uncertain," it becomes our duty to sny a good word in our own behalf to prove that our ease is not so desperate as our friends seem to believe. The condition of a State is fairly in dicated by the net money value of its produce., by tho healthiness or unhculth iness of its trade, aud by the encourage ment given to new undertakings and to all movements which look to the devel opment aud utilization of its resources and wealth. Applying these tests to South Carolina, it is found that vre have no season to be ashamed of the progress we have made, and thact the rapidity aud certainty of our recovery from tho effects of the. late war have not been excelled iu any other Stato of tho South. The money value of the South Caroli nuiootton crop of 1808-69 at an uvcrage of twenty-five cents a poand is about 918,000,000. This cottony with good management, can bo produced) at> ten and twelve cents. Adding to the cotton crop, our large crop of rice, the prooaeds of our phosphate beds, and of our fruit, and vegetable trade, it may be safely es timated that the uct profit on the market able productions of 1868-69 is between $8,000,000 and 910,000,000. This is exclusive of breadstuff's and meat raised for homo consumption. The profit on the crops of rice and cotton for one year is, thorcfore, sufficient to pay off the whole debt of the State. The sea const has met with disaster after disaster, but for three years the middle aud upper counties havo been steadily making money. Old debts have been cleared off, and no new ones of any consequence huve been contracted. When bums of money were wanted they could uot to be had. This compelled the general adop tion of the cash system of doing business, throughout the State. All our mer chants agree in saying that the goods sold to the country dealers are promptly paid for; aud we know that in the North and West our credit is as good as it was in tho palmiest days before the war. But after paying off uld debts there was still a large surplus of money in the hands of the planters and farmers. This was applied to putting the plantations in working ordor, to the purchase of implements and stock, and to the repairs of houses and baildings. The money still remaining could find no investment. There wore no negroes to be bought, und of land there was already inoro than enough. The greater part of the sur plus was invested in gold, aud, in every village in the State, tens of thousands of dollars are carefully hidden from day light aud usefulness. Upon this point rwe have made careful inquiries and we arc convinced that there is more hard money in South Carolina to-day than there teas at any one time he/ore the tear. We want t< sec this money in active oirculntion, and it will gradually flow into the channels of trade. But confidence is a plant of slow growth, and the dangers and the vioissitudes of the past arc uot easily forgottun. Passing from the country districts, which arc practically out of debt and have more ready money than they ever had bofore. we turn to the cities of Columbia and Charleston. In these cities the spring trade of lSt?9 was better than that of 1868 or 1SG7, while there is every reason to expect an unusually good fall trade Columbia is gradually rebuilding. Senator Sprague promise:1 to erect n ills ou the Columbia canal,' and the v.'tie of real estate is advancing steadily, if ?lowly. Charleston is rapidly recovering her old business. Georgia and Alabama arc ngaill supplied by the Charleston jobbers and merchants, and, thanks to the improvements in our rail road system, freight is sent without transhipment from Charles to St. Louis. Vicksburg uud the cities of the Gulf. We have a fleot of ewift steamships ply Hag KpC^n^nw x^Xm itij mij-?h?.-K-:^4ua,.-.; ports. A line of steamships fioiu Char lestoo to Liverpool direct wus established last year, and is an accomplished fact. In October the first steamship of the season will be loudiug at our wharves for Liverpool, takiug aboard not only the South Csroliua staple, but the cottons of Georgia and Alabama and fur Mis sissippi. What other Southern city, ex cept Baltimore, has established direct trade with Europe? In our sister cities there was a great deal of talking aud writing Charleston said nothing, but has established the Charleston and Liverpool steamship line. And in regard to railroads our people are uot idle. A number of new railroad projects are already before the public. Some of them may injure Charleston, but all of them will be of benefit to the Stute at large. The Big Father of Railroads?the Blue-Ridge?is under contract, and is expected to pour into our lap the vast trado of the West, while through Charleston will flow the iinmi gruuts und the fos?igu goods which the Weht requires. Governor Scott will probubly make a cool million out of the Blue-Ridge Railroad contract, but it appears to be the general opinion that the road wUl be well worth its cost in cluding the stealing. We have also the Port Royal Railroad, the Air Line Rail road, the Chatham Railroad, the Chr.raw and Greensboro Railroad and others. Wc mention these as an evidence that the people are alive and wide awake. Agricultural societies are forming in nearly every county, aud the first annual Fair of the State Society will be held in November. More thau one immigration society is in active operation. And wc have every reason to believe that we shnll be able to obtain enough Chinese laborers for the scneoast to enable the planters to put all their best lands in cultivation. This Chinese labor will also, by competition, make the frocdmeu work more steadily aud faithfully than they arc pleased to do now. These are hard facts, und we ask our Macon contemporary whether they show a condition of "complete paralysis," or of ''slowand uncertain recuperation '{" And tho prospect ahead is as bright as wc could desire. Tho short cotton und rice crops promise well. Corn may bo short, but wo havo money with which to buy bread. On the sea islands the caterpillar has done no harm, aud the mosti oxpericneod long cottou planters predict a better crop of that valuable staple than we havo had for many years. This is our oondttion. This i? what wc have doue in spite of tl*?

Hio Sun, of Tucs ? day, lets light into ^lr*business, and s iys it is no longer a secret that the Ad dnis trntion has opened i[tgotiutions for that object with tho prcjftnt Government of | Spain; that (ienoraljsicklcs has already presented the subjcctjto the Minister for Foreign Affairs at Mjirid, aud that "two bulky telegrams hate been received at Washington in conscaneuec." The pro position which General Sickles bad laid before Marshal Scrralio and his associates is given as follows: T. Spain shall rccoynizc the indepen dence of Cuba under he government of Cespedcs. II. Cuba shtill pay to Spain an indem nity for the resignation of the rights hitherto exercised by the mother coun try. The amount of this indemnity to be specified in the treaty. III. The indemnity, whether fixed at ?100,000,000, $50,000,000. or $25.000, 000, to be in bonds of the Cuban Govern ment, payable with interest at the expira tion of n convenient period. IV. These bonds to be guaranteed by the United States. V. An armistice to bo proclaimed be tween the patriots rnd the Spanish tmors in Cuba, immediately upon the execution of the treaty. The island to be evacuated by the Spanish forces as soon as the treaty is ratified t>y the representatives of the Cuban-people, and tho guarantee of the bouds approved by the Congres of the United States. VI. If these terms are not at once ac cepted by the Spauh>h Government, the United State? will, without further delay, recognize the independence of Cuba. The Cubati Junta forwarded from New rctury Fish against the alleged proposed purchase of Cuba from tho Spanish Go vernment, saving that two-thirds of the island are owned by native Cubans, and now held bv the authorities of free Cuba. To Young Ladies. Young ladies, it' ynu wish to be bap py and contented after the marriage ceremonies and honeymoon arc over, I would suggest the following : Do not choose a L^ry man ; do not fall in love with a moustache, neither with a hat, neither fashionably cut trowscrs, nor blackened boots, or pomaded and ar tificially curled hair; neither look upon graceful danciug and horse back riding? no, indeed ! for with all the above men tioned qualifications of. now a days called, a fast young man. ynu would uot be able, with the best culinary skill, to cook a meal of victuals with it. Hut, if a man comes to ask you for your heart and hand, inquire if he is a skilful artisan, or a tt. tfty, industrious farmer who is up early snc late, and rather does his own work and loves*to doit, than to complain of hard times ; or if he understands to manage his fortune, if be has any. or has the ability to acquire one ; ask him if be thinks there are six days in the week in work, and if be improves them, and then one Sunday to rest on. to praise the Lord .nd go fo meeting?if so, and you can otherwise love him, for be is sure to provide for you. Dut, if he is one of them who loaf about half, and more than half the time, dressed in fashionably cut garments, afraid to work for soiling bis clot lies, al ways thirsty, and who has the sixth com mandment seven times abolished?of course, let him stand in the cold and give him the mit ing, go. be unhar If all t join in a marry a la's? dn-hotbing?t ous and cronto men on matritm see the secret s and endeavor to in order to get wishes ; 'be w holt crs nnd >t n would disu in wint verc moll a 1 rung you would at once mi do never to ood-for-uothing, I would be marvel dors ; for the young I business would soon go to Work, earnestly < sober and industrious them a wife of their army of their loung er-watching gentry the earth like frogs is bitter and sc lubtcdlv ? try Tub Fruits of Honest Industry/ Oii yesterday morning Rix colored men, Charles Young.

Alter a short liiuo spent in examination, six buggies and sets of harness were pur chased, tho chccpcst one of which cost $150 cash, aud one of them bought a double buggy which, of course, cost much more than tho others. As soon as the vehicles hud he< n purchased euch one of the owners harnessed a fine mule to the buggy?the mules being also the Krty of the former. These colored ure working this year on a planta in Burke County, distant about y five miles from this city, and are doing exceedingly well.
