THE ORANGEBUR? NEWS "SATURDAY, JAN. 22,1870. , MALCOLM I. BROWNING, Editor. Our Duty. The following article from the Union Times, has the right ring in its tone: Another year is upon us, and before its close, we will bare another general election. State officers, members of the legislature and congressmen aro to be elected by us in October noxt. It is of vital moment to the best in terest of our State, that tho present in-* cuiubents be "defeated, and good men elected in their stead. This is practica ble, if we will simply do two things, which wisdom demands. 1. He united. ? He ? who prefers a man or set of mon to the success of the party opposod to official dishonesty, is not true. He may baJisi, that he is cot fettered by party nominations; but when be pursues a course, which must end in the defeat of' good men, ho is himself not a patriot, 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 secoud will be. We must read the changes wrought by these amendments. Questions which > divided the two great political parties of the Country two years ago, would appear ridiculous, if lugged into a political can vass now. They are settled ngninst us. Congressional Reconstruction and Negro Suffrage are issues of the past, quite as much so as the Louisiana Purchase nnd tho Mexican War. IF wo do not so regard them, wo are impracticable, un wise and destined to defeat. Victory is in our bands, if we will only grasp it. Our platform is one upon which while and black may unite and join hands; it is Opposition to Official Dishon esty. We want no other plank. Upon this wo would nominate good men ; and they would bo elected. We beg our readers to think over these things, and begl.i to prepare them selves. By July, we ought to have our candidates in the field, without division. Soon, aye very soon, wo should com mence the work of organization. Let men begin to thiuk of clubs; and let clubs be as brief in their resolutions u?- ? possible. Let them, above all things, be wise, and careful not to waste their strength in tilting against wind-mills. Tho Chester Reporter, highly com mends the nrticlc, and snys : "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 Carolina more reliable " This is tho right view of the case.? Tho general tone and somo of tho ex pressions of tho Uuiou Times, will re mind our readers of tho views expressed from time to time iu tho editorial col umns of tho Oranoeuurq News. It is with a lively feeling of congratulation that we notice this adoption of our views; of congratulation, not that our opinion ' is concurred in by others, but thnt others, of tho Press of the State, aro adopting tho proper and practical view of our position and duty. Lot every paper iu the State adopt the same tone, and echo the same sentiments, and we shall saved; our birthright and heritage shall be restored. The adoption of this practical tone by our State papers, and by Hampton nnd others, of our lenders, ore the dim dawning of the day of restoration and redemption, whoso sun shall soon beam in its meridian splendor over a happy people. Men of Carolina, you may not disre gard your palpable, plaiu and sacred duty to your state! You cannot stand alooffrom tho real issues of tho hour; you cannot like Don Quixote, crazed with a delusive anachronism, waste your j strewgi*- iu iillisg nt windmills, while the rush and conflict of real issues hang in tho balance, and the devotion of your talent and energy will settle them in your favor Leave the dead issues 'and prejudices of the post! Leave off tho maudlin pro test against their settlement against you! Up, and to tho work before you 1 ^ It is as Bolemn a duty of patriotism, and of heroic chivalry, to enter into the arena of daty to your stale now as it was for you to rally to the conflict, 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 the bugles of Manassas ounded to the charge. Craven, ooward was he then who raiiicd uoi where man hood and duty called ; and craven is he now, who will not devote l.is energy in this hour, perhaps of sorer trial. The Democratic party, as it was is no more; the other great party, with its machinery, dominates in our State, and its terriblo power by the operation of labyrinthine leagues and secret oaths, has fallen into the hands of a small clique in each county aud section of our State. Men of no merit, talent or ehnrj actcr have all the positions in the State. The stranger rules and represents, us: our laws are framed at the North. Ily in centives, promises, secret associations, aud hy our own default, the 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 the reasons of this state of things is oitr men default. Instead of at once taking in 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 j wc 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 all sleep 'ncath her turf, and only the wind aud the women arc Is ft to moan and to la ment nt their graves. It is true, the people of this State, and of the other Southoo 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 party at the North, reared its standard, and to allure the white votes of the South, to save the party iu its ex treme need held out the * delusivo 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 qualified nt abolished deluded us, ensnared us. Our effort v. as not imtde upon the basis of fact, and accomplished change, but upon a delusive hopo, held out to us, that these issues would bo ro cousidcrcd?that trie past would he par tially restored. This v as the nature of our effort at the Grant aud Seymour elec tion in 18G8. Our effort was a failure, our delusive hopes, blighted. Recoiling from this second defeat and disappointment, wc have relapsed into our supine lethargy of inaction, or sonic hnvo gone over to the agency of the Republican party. There is nnother, and a propca. effort to be made. 'Tis no compromise of prin ctple. 'Tis the plain, sensible rcalixatioi of our position, an appreciation of wha is settled and fixed, and a knowledge o what is our palpable and true duty. Reconstruction, colored suffrngcB whether politically aud mctaphysicallfl just and right, or not, arc settled facti! tho colored majority is tho menus hjM which whoever governs the State, musfl be chosen. This is the position of oufl State. Our duty is reconciliation, s.ofl curing tho friendship, votes, nnd lahnfl of the colored man. To do this, <H courpe, he is to bo treated very difl fcrontly from what he was when n sluvH Wo arc to start out with the admUshl and recognition of his rights of citizctl ship. Wo are to guarantee these righH to him. Ho is not avaricious but I easily appeased aud satisfied. Let tl? treat the colored man as a human bciuH no longer ridiculing his grotesque itH portanco or his iguoranco, but let I sccuro, and assist him, in his ligbfll of voting, of acquiring an education, I having a home, cf being happy, and H reusing tho rich rewards of honesty a HB industry. He docs not ask for more than tlfl and, however prejudice or sophistfl| may blind us, ho has a right to tb-H things. PH When wo guarantee to him these things, we, do our duty a- an intelligent, Christian people, and, we secure his valuable labor, the best adapted to our soil and climst.?, and bis friendship. This is our plain duty, by its discharge by this course of treatmont of tho colored man wc will acquire tho influence over his votes, that tho, Republican party at tho North, through the agency of its leagues holds and sways over him. Ail ?he loeu of Carolina do not slco'p, beneath tho wreathed mounds of her heroes, thousands of them live for b< yet. Let them do their duty to her now. Their duty, is as patriotic and as sacred, ns was theirs who, wero sluin in her bat tles, the discharge of this duty will be nt) crowning aud as glorious, as are those trophies heaped by a people's love, upon tho tombs of their martyrs. South Carolina can be redeemed nnd restored to her sous. Tbeso sentiments of our coteniporary, nnd the words of high im part, ritlgiug from the lips of Ilutupton of laudanum haviug been known to kill an infant of nine months, and the man ufacturers of Mrs. winslow's Soothing Syrup sell annually about 100,000 two ounce bottles in tho singlo State of New York, tho reader can form somo idea of the number of bubies that are soothed to perpetual sleep by this nostrum. Mothers had better stick to catnip ten. Harriot Stowo is* puzzled at tho storm raised againts her among her own coun trymen, with whom sho thought "tho cause of womuu was safe and sacred."
