Its course from the day that it oi 'ra*^? n* *rst appearance upon the streets r ? of; Oraogeburg. has been one of signal M;.-rCBcc?MP| yet of remorkablo suramer P'^^kwilf .?? A* At time soaring majestioal ?'^ff 'ffatti, . obstacles which proved the ?... drooping its head below what, in the ; philosophy of many, was deemed the ivA oraly true standard of merit and of a access, . it has found its way up to the present Si t titoe, its career having been interspersed, meantime, odij with that degree . of change which is inherent in the cir ? cumstnnces attendant upon all earthly enterprises. That it has steered clear of ,n the shoals upon whioh newspapers too often ruu aground, we do not assert; hot we do believe that it hag never been i the foe of tho real interests of the ?< ? roars** of Orangebarg. Its prosperity '? ''has been, ?od is now, identical with theirs. If they prosper their County's . journal must advance likewise. Renoe, it it almost impossible for us to advocate a line of policy detrimental to their wel fare. It has paid too many visits to their homes and firesides to turo upon '; them at this late day. For oearly seven years it has held weekly communion with the citizens of this County, and so nnx b'wl ious are its conductors to see it prosper in lue future, as it has in the past, that ^Nre,promise never to c3end tho tasto of id 'ff'ione* ^koso folding opiuiona an tagonistic to ours, will bo'treated with ,7*w>*fB. much courtesy through these columns, as those whose political creed and faith are in sympathy with ours. That this journal will ever deviate from this prin ciple, we leave to the future for demon* stration. Under its present manage ~jnftnt,.no expression, whicu should be defaspdjd by justice, or in the vindica tioti of any individual, unfairly assailed, . will be refused a place in its columns ? no ? . r , And in taking part in these questions it shall always bo our desire to he cour t , tarns in oar use of language; but should ??' circumstances force jos to an abandon ; ment of this rule, it will be found that we are not too mild in our manners for - ? our severer nature to bo culled forth whenever. occasion shall justify it. Anyhow, we pledge ourselves to the task of endeavoring to do our whole duty to the people of this County. If wo fail in a full accomplishment of tho work, it maat be attributed to an orror of the bead and not of the heart. i Another Say. Now that we have given a hasty ex pression as to what tho Oranokburo News has done, and promises to continue in the performance of, in the future, it may not be ont of placo to say some thing of the situation of the day. At present it is rather remarkable. The 1 principles fought for and aoboivad but yesterday, as it were?those whioh have dcie so much for tho elevation of a lange j*rt of our humanity?seem to have hecu suddenly disrobed oi their i grandeur, and allurements, and many of ' their former worshippers, ia tho mad Whirlpool of political contests for per sonal preferment, are endeavoring to undo that, with the accomplishment of which, ^history records, their labor as belog inseporably connected. Horace Greclty for instance, the man who has. " done more in his way for the elevation sod improvement of tho working classes titan iiDy other, stands to dny in a rolo distinct a/id. separate from that which endeared birn, to Lho hearts of so many people. He who more than thirty years ago presented himself to the poor sod the oppressed, ss their champion, and who has fought the better por tion of his life with unremitting eurn estnesa the battle of freedom, aeys now to bia friends, "I baro shaken hands with yon, and design that my future shall hi spent in the Tanks of my form, sr enemies." The ideas so ably advo cated by him ; the seal with which he held them up, as just before the world > the glorious political code, so warmly snppttted sad feshkmed its part by his master hand; tho achievements of his mighty pen; the gratitude of the millions whose hearts at times hare almost barste? with admiration for him ; his world-wide reputation for sincerity and devotion to principle?these, all these, be has tnrnsd his back upon, sod to day with his hair silvered with frosts of so many winters, spent in the prosecution ' of a great and good work, Horace Groeloy is pointed at as the greatest liv ing monnment of treachery to principle, the world has ever produced. In troth, bo has gone back upon bis own achieve meuta. And yet, there- rre many Demo crats who can now pronoonoe no other name but that of Greeley. Tbey accuse Judge Orr, and every other South Caro linisn who has seen fit to east thoir lots with the Republican party, of all man ner of crimes; but they forget that in their mad denunciations of men of their own State, they betray an inconsistency altogether unbecoming men, whose polit ical convictions are founded upon con scientious principles. Horace Greeley, who has been the life-long enemy of the South, and whom to day, they endorse against Grant, aaid iu a speech iu New York in 1871?only a year ago: "Gen. Grant has never been defeated, and ho never will be. While asserting the right of every Republican to bis untrammeled choice of a oandidato for next President until a nomination is made, I venture to suggest that Gen. Grant will be far better qualified for that momentous trust in 1872 than he was 1868." When he uttered the above words, ho donbtless expected a cabinet appoint ment ; falling to get that ha at once became the enemy of President Grant, aa he waa hitherto the foe of the South. But if the Democracy can swallow him, it will suit us; and so for the pre sent wc will leave the philosopher of the Tribune. It has been over twelve years since the Republican party won its first victory. Since that time, mighty changes have taken place. Ideaa that then seemed to have an existence in the minds of fanatics only, to-day aro recog nised as accomplished and solid facts. What more is wanted to convince the skeptical that tbe world is progressing ? Do not the changes in question show that there is a hand at the helm all mighty and infinite ? Only a few years ago it waa thought impossible, and altogether improbable, that certain things, now facts as firmly established aa the past accomplishment* of history, should ever become a part and parcel of the elements whioh are to rule this country in tho future. But it is bo. Despite the cavilings of the prejudiced and ignorant, the gonoration which L to ocftne after us, will recognize in the past decade a revolution on the ; * .* t.tj., ????--?_ I...C U| juauco HUM v* ?'?vi ? - or almost than the annals of time can or will ovqr produce again ?n so short a period. Over five millions of people who a quarter of a century ago could cot catch tho slightest glimpse of their aeliver atioe from an oppressive and anti-cbris tian bondage, now stand before the world and before Heaven, as free and* indepen dent citizens, equal in political and oivil rights to tho greatest of our country. Social barriers, that hare proved suoh a sane te this bind, have been partially broken down, the only vestige left of ?Hem baia? their not too fashionable and over dressed representatives. Thoughts which bat a ehort time ago existed only ii> tbe mi A of the idealist, arc now accomplished evidences of the troth that where God raises his hand is defenoe of his creatures, justice to hu manity sod to Heaven will be there suit. Aad now after these oh an gee in oar condition> is it not folly foe nur people, to array themselves any longer against that whiqh fate has-docrecd shalL stand as long as.this country continues to have an existence. Is there nnv Rhiry in.de feat f its humiliation ? Why, then, op pose that which is inevitable ? *-\ * We tell the white sitizeoa of Orange burg County that there are none more anxious to see them represented than the conductors of this journal; not only in the Legislature, but also in the va rious County Offices. But there Is a prerequisite, an indispensable qualifica tion before this tad esa be brought around, that has not yea been shown by the majority ofthe whites, and that la, a com plots and unequivocal recognition of the righto and immunities of tits black nan. Until this is done, our word for it, Orangeburg county will go against them. It is not the duty of the journalist to deceive his own or any other party. His mission is to tell the truth. To day we say that if the white people of Orangeburg Conoty will make the pro per advances, we believe they will be met half-way by our colored fo!low-citizens, provided said advances be made in good faith. "Judge Orris doubtless obeying the be hests of his masters at Washington, but ex hibits in so doing a degree of political tur pitude end degradation to which w? bad thought bis inoipable of desending. The people of this Stats may well oxclaim to him, "?/ tu Brut*'.,' They have bestowed upon James L. Orr the brightest honors, and given him a national reputation. For him now, to turn his back upon them, is evidence of the baseats ingratitude on his part, and we earnestly hope he will be repudiated ns he deserves. He has passed even beyond the pale of toleration and for him we have no words save those of reproach.? Wintubor* New: Thotbove extract will show how far the partisan principles of some of our hotch potch quill-drivers will carry thetn an to the regions of tho intolerable and ridi culous. For the Neva to assert that Judge Orr is guilty of base ingratitude, because he has the courage to raise his voice in behalf of the millions instead of the few is as paradoxical as it is unfair. And for it to aver that "for him"? in consequence of this?"it has no words save those of reproach" reminds us of Moore's verges on a criticism writton by Leigh Hunt upon tho works of Lord Byron: '?'Tis, indeed, as good fun as a Cynic could ask, To see this, cockuey-brcd setier of rabbits Take gravely the lord of the forest to task, And judges of licua by pnppj dag babbits." Judge Orr, will be remembered and thanked for his counsel to the citizens of this State when his present defamcrs ire veiled in an igoomiuious obscurity. But ho "Must alao bear tho vile attacks Of ragged curs and vulgar hacks." TiiAlUN of Charleston is on the ram pagoagain. It will bo remembered that in 1870, he opposed both Bow en aod De Large. For months ho has been labor ing under the hallucination that Con gress would seat him again in the end. They having failed to gratifiy Mr. Tharin's happy dream, he is looming up again : hut if ho moots with many Buoh rebuffs as ho received the olhor afternoon, while attempting to address a erowd at White Point Uarden in Char leston, it is not unfair to pros onto that the aspirant for Congressional honors will subside from puolic view. At least it is to he hoped so. "The colored race needs a second emacipn tion.
