THE ORANGEBURG NEWS SATUBBAY, JAN. 2?, 1870. *> MALCOLM I. BROWNING, Editor. Our Duty. The following article from tho Union Times, has the right ring in its tone: Another year is upon us, and before its close, we will hare another general election. Stato officers, members of the legislature and congressmen aro to bo elected by us in October noxt. It is of vital moment to the bcsc in terest of our State, that tho present in-' cuinbents be "defeated, and good men elected in their stead. This is practica ble, if we will simply do two things, which wisdom demands. ' 1. Be united. ? He - who prefers a man or set of men to the success of the party opposed to oificial dishonesty, is not true. He may boast, that ho is not fettered by party nominations; but when he pursues a course, which must end in the defeat of'" good men, he is himself not a putriot, and not to be trusted. 2. Wo must be practicable. Tho fourteenth and fifteenth amend ments to the Constitution of the United States, have settled many things?the first is passed and the second will bo. We must read the changes wrought by those amendments. Questions which <. divided the two great political parties of the Country two years ago, would uppcar ridiculous, if lugged into a political can vass now. They are settled against us. Congressional Reconstruction and Negro Suffrage are issues of the past, quite as much so as tho Louisiana 1'urchnse and tho Mexican War. If we do not so regard them, wo are impracticable, un wise and destined to defeat. Victory is in our hands, if we will only grasp it. Our platform is one upon which white and black may unite and join hands; it is Opposition to Official Dishon esty. We want no other plank. LTpon this wo would nominate good men ; and they would bo elected. We beg our readers to think over those things, and begin to prepare them selves. By July, we ought to have our candidates in the field, without division. Soon, nye very soon, wo should com mence the work of organization. Let men begin to think of clubs; and let clubs be as brief in their resolutions as ? possible. Let them, above all thiugs, bo wise, aud careful not to icaste their strengt]*, in tilting against wind-mills. Tho Chester Reporter, highly com mends the article, and says : "Wo have been impracticable too long * * * Let us leave for awhile the United States to take care of themselves, and bend all our energies to the task of making our condition in South Caroliua more reliable " This is tho right view of the case.? Tho general tone and some of tho ex pressions of tho Uuion Times, will re mind our readers of tho views expressed from time to time iu tho editorial col umns of tho Obanoeuurg News. It is with a lively feeling of cougratulution that we notice this adoption of our views; of congratulation, not that our opinion is concurred in by others, but that others, of the Tress of the State, uro adopting tho proper and practical view of our position and duty. Lot every paper in the State adopt the same tone, and echo the same sentiments, and we shall saved; our birthright and heritage shall be restored. The adoption ol" this practical tone by our State papers, nnd by Hampton and others, of our lenders, are the dim dawning of the day of restoration and redemption, whoso sun shall soon beam in its meridian splcudor over a happy people. Men of Caroliua, you may not disre gard your palpable, plain and sacred duty to your state! You canuot stand nloot"from tho real issues of tho hour ; you cannot like Don Quixote, crazed with a delusive anachronism, waste your strength in tilting at windmills, while the rush and conflict of retJ issues hang in tho balance, and tho dovotion of your talent and cnorgy will settle them in your favor.^J Leave the dead issues 'and prejudices of the past! Leave off the maudlin pro -* test against their settlement agaiust you! Up, and to the work before you 1 It is as solemn a duty of patriotism, and of heroio chivalry, to enter into the arena of duty to your state now as it was for you to rally to the oonflict when the cry was "Boot and Saddle." A clarion voioo peals forth our duty i n our ears to-day, as distinctly and as ringing as when tho bugles of Manassas ounded to tho charge. Graven, ooward was he then who rallied not where man bond and duty called ; and craven is be now, who will not devote l.is energy in this hour, perhaps of soror trial. The Democratic party, as it was ia no more; the other great party, with its machinery, dominates in our State, and its terrible power by tho operation of labyrinthine leagues and secret oaths, has fallen into the hands of a small clique in euch county aud section of our Stute. Men of no merit, talent or ohar' acter have all the positious in the State. The stranger rules and represents, us : our laws arc framed at the North. By in centives, promises, secret associations, aud bj/ our oien default, tho agents and emis saries of this party, have acquired com pl;te sway over.the colored people. Like a blind giant, the colored majority ex erts its strength and power, not to bene fit themselves, but to augment and per petuate this frightful usurpation. We' say one of tbo reasons of this state of things is our otcn drfaidf. Instead of at once taking iu the real position of af fairs, realizing Reconstruction and color ed suffrage as settled facts, and using these as data, accepting them and turn ing them into good; we have sat down in our ashes, aud amid the ruins of our State, and moaned like women at the ruthless change. One might well ask, whether all the men in the South were slain in her war ; whether they nil sleep 'ncuth her turf, aud only the wind and the women are left to moan and to la ment at their graves. It is true, the people of this State, and of the other South en States, did make one effort, one rally, since the war. But it was an effort to do what? An effort to restore the past. The Dem ocratic parly at the North, reared its standard, and to allure the white votes of the South, to save the party in its ex treme need held out tho' delusive hope that negro suffrage would not be permanent. It was a snare! We would admit the freedom of the colored man, but the fond hope that his right of voting must be qualiGcd <>i abolished deluded us, ensnared us. Our effort ?as not made upon the basis of fact, and accomplished change, but upon a delusive hope, held out to us, that these issues would bo ro cousidered?that the past would be par tially restored. This was the nature of our effort at the Grant and Seymour elec tion in 1808. Our effort was a failure, our delusive hopes, blighted. Recoiling from this second defeat and disappointment, we have relapsed into our supine lethargy of inaction, or sonic hnvo gone over to the agency of tho Republican part}*. There is nnother, and a propcaefiort to bo made. Tis no compromise of prin ciple. 'Tis tho plain, sensible realization of our position, nn appreciation of what is settled and fixed, and a knowledge o: what is our palpable and truo duty. Reconstruction, colored PuffrageB whether politically and metaphysicallH just and right, or not, arc settled fuc?fl tho colored majority is the means hi which whoever governs the State, niusfi be chosen. This is the position of oufl State.* Our duty ia reconciliation, seffl curing tho friendship, votes, and lahufl of the colored man. To do this, <fl course, he is to bo treated very difl fcrontly from what he was when a sluvH Wo are to start out with lue ad u.> it-si. S and recognition of his rights of citizi 8 ship. Wo are to guarantee these rigbl to him. He is not avaricious butH easily appeased and satisfied. Let H treat the colored man as a human bciuH no longer ridiculing bis grotesque ill portunco or his iguoranco, but let I sccuro, and assist him, in his righfl of voting, of acquiring an education, I having a homo, of being liuppy, and ? reaping tho rich rewards of honesty a H industry. He does not ask for more than tlfl and, however prejudice or sopbisiH may blind us, he has a right to thJfl things. H| When we guarantee to him theso things, we, do our duty as an intelligent, Christian peoplo, and, we secure his valuable labor, tho best adapted to our so:! and climatJ, and his friendship. This is our plain duty, by its discharge by this course of treatment of tbo colored man we will aoquiro the influence over his votes, that the, Republican party at tho North, through tho agency of its leagues holds and sways over him. A il iho mcu of Carolina do not slcdp, boacath tho wreathed mounds of her heroes, thousands of them live for yet. Let them do their duty to her now. Their duty, is as patriotic and as sacred, (is was theirs who, were sluio in her bat tles, the discharge of this duty will bo no crowning aud as glorious, as arc those trophies heaped by a people's love, upon tho tombs of their martyrs. South Carolina can be redeemed nnd restored to her sous. Theso seutimcuts of our cotemporary, nnd the words of high im part, ringing from the lips of Hampton | |ps laudunum hnviug beeu known to kill an infant of nine months, and the man ufacturers of Mrs. wioslow's Soothing Syrup sell annually ubout 100,000 two ounce bottles iu the single State of New York, tho reader can form somo idea of the number of babies that arc soothed to perpetual sleep by this nostrum. Mothers had bettor stick to catnip tea. Harriet Stowo is* puzzled at tho storm raised againts her among her own coun trymen, with whom she thought "the cuusc of woman was salb und sacred." Well, it is, and Mrs. Leigh was a wo man. Tub San Domingo Bahoain.?The terms of the propcaod annexation ef Sun Domingo aro at length before us. By treaty of President Boci with the cotn tucrcitil agent of the United States it is stipulated that for ?1.500,000. to be Mpcnt in payiug the debts of Sao Do niiugo, that country shall bo annexed to the United States as a territory. Should the debts which arc to bo paid by n joint commission, exceed the sum agreed upon, public hinds uro pledged for the excess. All national property, together with complete jurisdiction is ceded to .the United States; and the treaty will be lid when ratified by our Senate and uflrnicd by the vote of the Domini ns.
