We bad tho plousuro of inci ting this faithful aud honest Republican iu Char leston the other day. Conferred with '''<' '." ' '??'( him'upon tho situation. It was ex tremely gratifying to us to hoar him utter n solem npprobutiou or tho courso taken by tho Ouanoeburg News. Governor Eansier is now contributing to the Daily llcpttblican a series of articles upou the situation. They certainly re-' fleet a deep interest, felt by Mr. Hau sier, for tho country in general. We will ooimnciicc tho publication of them soon. The Columbia Uuion is edited by L. 0. Carpenter. It is a Republican paper i ?so is the Orangeuuru Nkws. But despite this fact; despite the oommunity ?f obavitablc foeliug that should exist between all journalists ;'despite the truth that wo have done moro for the Repub lica party (in our county) than the Union oditor ; despito that sentiment of honorablo fooling that should, aud has always mcved tho breasts of those con nected with the press, towards each other ; despito tho impulse that actuates fair and honorablo controversies, es pecially between men of our craft, yes ! despito r all these, the editor of that panpr, in an unfair, unjust and un warranted :nanuer pit che.-? into us. And for what? Because, forsooth, wo aro against #t high taxes, andthc men who have couie here to rob us; because, in other words,wo have tho tnanlLess, when we see anything wrong in tho Republican party, to say so, and further, put tho teal of our con demnation upon it; because wo cuuuct, L__jirid_wiil not sauctiua dishonesty, corrup tion and'fraud ; bcoauso wo weep with those of our people who weep on account of an cuomious taxation ; because wc aro Republican aud honest; because wc cannot utter an unqualified approbation of all the doings of some Republicans, tho Univn forgets all fairness, aud flings deadly missiles at us. But wo aro unterriSed. The fling at us falls harmless upon our shoulders. Gods ! how mistaken., that editor is. TllE Union goes deeper into malignity. It says if the taxes aro high, it is a fault of tho editor of this paper, because we are Chairman of the Board of County Commissioner*. In our charity wc can forbear faying what we might with pro priety assert. Let the Union know, however, that wc had not yet been cotn niissioncd when the Board of Equaliza tion for this County met. The equaliza tion (?) had been muds, and the Audi tor's books almost completed when wc took our scat. Had we been installed at (the time, the taxes of Orangeburg County would not havo been so high, that is, if hid- voice could have had any What our Contemporary says about the County Commissioners, wo will answer by asking its editor to read tho present ment of the last Grand Jury, of this County. The Union ought to be particular. It doesn't know that there are no charges agaiust tho New Board, there fore its mistake And when "tho grave charges" and tho "astounding develop ments/' of which that paper speaks are established, and laid opon to the public gaeo, wo will then have something to soy to the editor of tho Union. 'Till then wc leaVo tho matter. We leave it for the next Grand Jury to pouder; wc leave it for honorablo gontlcmon to givo us that vixlioafioi) which our contcmpo t f .: j ... ;i ... , ;<v..n>? hnnfA^lotf', All we have to say is this: That we would QOI publish anything defamitory of a brut I,or journalist, no matter how desirous so to do, without first satisfying ourselves of its authenticity. ?-??????>- ?_ The Columbia Cm'on says: "The grvest charges have ugou madu Bguinst the County Coni*uissionera of Orungeburg, aud astouuding develop ments are expected. If there has bceu any swindling there, we hope those en gaged in it will bo ferreted out and puu irihed to the fullest extent of tho law.' , Can the lrnion comprehend us when we say that we have adopted every measure [ possible to discover ifnny <;swindliug" has been going on ? As soon as* tho "de velopments expected" ore made, our con temporary shall know it. "YYe opine, however, it will then change its tuue. We call upon tho pub lic to watch it. Taxes. rII euro n Township, Fork of the Edhstos, April 10th, 1871. Mr. Editor?It has been some time siucc I havo troubled you with a line ; but, sir, if 1 was one of the seven sleep ers, or inhabited tho inner caverns of the earth, the heart-rending cries of my ^ouutrymcu would arouse tue, and when I ar.i aroused, I must talk, aud when I 'talk, I talk plain', and u?y talk now will bo about that outrageous imposition, the taxes. Our generous Geueral Asctnbly say that they passed the Act to collect tho tax fur 1871, in the lull of 1871, be cause tho pooplo are better provided at that time to pay taxes than at any othes* time of the yesr. S?n.n few may have been hoodwinked ; but, Mr. Editor, the leaders, (the carpet bag element of the Legislature,) work for no such cousllc ratiou. Thcv arc trcuibliug iu their shoes; for they staud on their soufs. They know that tho Legislature that will meet December 1872, will meet without them. The Halls that have rung with their eloquence ^?) for so long, will thus ring no more, forever. Alas! bow sad the thought to all true Carcliniaus! Yot wo oan spare them; we muet spare them ! Their sufferings in a future State will be so great, that I, at least, am willing to allow them to retire to the mountains of i!ipsiduui, State of Msuxiu chusctts, to await there their awful doom. 91 can imagine, Mr. Editor, that I seo the old D?1 with that Saint. Whittemore, suspended on his three pronged pitch fork, at tho head of a host .of arch-fiends, who each havo a carpet-bagger's carcas, suspended, and all on thoir tramp to h'll. So mote it be, anienj But I have digressed. These fellows know ing that they will be ousted in 1872, ol course", wanted to get a hold of as much of tho peoples money as possible, belore that event took place. As the law stood, they could havo only collected the taxes for 1870 and 1871?but by collecting the tax for '71, in the fall of 71, their financiers, Parker & Co., v ould havo a lick at the taxes collected for '72. Do i you catch tho idea, Mr Editor?" Cute aint it. But I havo heard that all yankctp aro good at cute tricks, and that they never hare a hole in the bot tom of their pockets. I dcubt if tho fe.r deludqd coin field colored Carolina gcntlomou who represent us at the scat of Government, buw the wick. Now, Mr. Editor, let ub fight tho devil with his own clement. These suck egg dogs want our money?well, wo havo a use for nil we have aud alt wo uau ge*, *o lets keep it. Don't let a man, a singlo tax-payer pay a dollars tax in Orange butg County this fall, and, we have them on tho hip. Resolve to buck and gag the Sheriff, the Treasurer, or any and every other man who offers to make a levy on a singlo thing for taxes, a id send them over to rne, here in tho fork, I'll tako care of them. I'll hide them ! And that man who makes a purchase, j to furnish means to satisfy a tux execu tion?let's resolve th?t fdle.it requiems shall be sung in lonely places. I mean what I Bay, Mr. Editor, und stand rea dy to hoad the list of those who will determine never to pay another tax, until Carolina is wiped. Justico ! Jostico 1 By the Gods : let's have justice. This is all I have to say Nfoxt week jpdVhftps, you will hear LEO IN THE I'OKK. P. S.?I WO you have woke up a last MV. Editor?yoor loader in your last issue?teat a stunner. Give them A" A. fits. They can stand double-rectified doses -?these slippered and gowued carpet bag gers. Folks tell mo just os soon an they g?t nri office, they invest their lost shin plas ter in slippers and gowns. I havo been told tho reason they like slippers is, be cause- they wear the heol of thoir foot in tho place whero we havo tho hollow, and J. can imagine that the gown is liked be cause its folds cover tho pockets, and you Can't see how Muffed they are with the people's mutioy. L. I. T P. 1\ S.?Souio one says to refuse to pay the taxes would bring civil war?well, ' if SO, X say t'ucu, lut net COTHO L. I. T. F. [communicated.] Air Editor; Tour last issue pleased mo hugely.

During the winter of lSt>9 a drummer, visiting WilHmngton, North Carolina, stopped at one of tho first class hotels. At the breakfast table he gave ag ela borate order to the waiter and uieluded in it "two soft-boiled eggs." Sambo went off tq to the kitchen, hut soon returned, aud asked : "Mass Ross, did you want dem eggs scrambled V "No," said the drummer, "I want thctu eoft-boilcd." "All right, sar," and off ho trotted again.' In a few moments he loomed in again, and remarked, in a most persuasive tone: "Mass Bos I, you butter have dem eggs seminbled " "What do you mean ?" roared Harry.

FUTURE PROSPERITY OF Tire SOUTH.?There can be no doubt that it would contribute greatly t'p the future pros perity of this section of the Union if many amongst us would turn their energies and capital in now chnnuels of enterprise and business. The old roads arc clear, but they are worn ?"d crowded. Blaze a new p.itli through the woods for yourself, young man. and you will arrive at the goal of success ahead uf your competitors. A striking ex ample^ of the value of this [pre; pt is found in the case of Mr P. P. lL\\o, of Charles ton, S.
