LOCAL, fJ. MEYERS, Assistant Editor. SATURDAY, JULY 25, 1874. TO REPUBLICANS? When ttio Ku Klux, around with brand aud bludgeon,, hunted the Re publicaus of the up country by night, through swamps and unto death?when our local authorities stood powerless in tho presence of organized murder aud ?rson, und the Fcniociatie party ua? ?appealed to, to put a stop to such crimes, thoy mocked nt our c .latnitioa and re f'u.?ed U3 any relief. It was in those dark, days that we appealed to the Na tion fur help, which was granted, and it was in this the winter of our discontcut that we swore to stand by the llepubli can parly and honesty. Now nu eleu tion is near at ban-', and it becomes us to look about ourselves. Republicans, have you forgotten the opposition o' Democrats to you? Their buruing-i, their murderings aud their blaokcr crimes ? "It is often fiippautly said that al! these ciimes aud horr. rs arc p issed, and it is absurd to attempt to uainl.vn a political party on the memory of them Perhaps so. Rut would it not be insane to trust a political party that could so readily forget thorn ? It is not magnaui nious, it is indeed hardly manly, to per secutc men fur sins of which they have really ?repented. Rut that is not re.pcn tance, it is liypocvasy, which profoi-sci to repent of sins and does not forsake them, but embraces worse ones. Such is the anomalous repentance displayed by the Democratic party. Tt never ccasrs to denuunee the Republican party fur what it has dune or is Irying lo do, but it straightway thunders with fiercer denunciations of what the.party has not done and is determined sha'l not be dune. The moment Democrats forgot to decry Republican policies thoybogin to belie Republican motive!". For twenty years they doomed it: sufficiently npprn briotis lo call Republicans "Radical*;" now they claim lo bo radicals themselves and denounse Republicansns raseils. If that part y feels it to be unkind to remind it of its paFt career, how must it feel to'he ro.nindcd^,ti>r i'8 present atti tndc? Onco ils members profossed dis tinct principles; all thfit coul Ibe objec ted to them was that thoy professed the worst principles extant. Rut bid as they were, thoy were more becumin^ than this utter abjuration of all prtnei pies. You may not like to employ, biu you do not wholly despise, the zcahd who consistently asserts that sarsaparil la will euro every disease and so urges it upon every patient; but wh-> can re spect tho charlutati who petsiste itly cries to the sjck."givc me your moneyaml you may take what rcmelifS vou please?" And now wc are about to clict. n?w members to the Legislature. We earnestly entreat tho p irty in this County to send the best aud ablest Re publicans we have. But wo entreat. you not to send wire pullers and men who have no other object iu view but the emoluments of office. Thero is no use in electing Democrats, or effete Re publicaus. Give us the pure stuT, if you do mean to rotract tho past. This is the only way to t^o forward. It is sometimes said tho mission of the Republican party is accomplished, If by that no more is moant than th it the party has discharged every trust heretofore committed to it, we admit it. It has been thought when one was found faithful over a fow things th it was a good reason for trusting htm with rnt)ro things. Ct:n you do better than be instructed by such tin oxample ? Especially ?dnce you must employ either the party which you say has fulfilled every trust, or employ that only other party which has betrayed every trust. The occasion for political effort has noteuded. Other labors lie before you lighter perhaps, but not light. Ydu.have to see that what is done fdiall not.be undine. Republicanism offers you the best security against re trogression. Then we say, on with the good work, und never stop until the mission of the Republican party shall hare been fully achieved. The Orangcburg News pledges for its help in the struggle. - ????1> ? ?. rmm i -?? Copying to aoy desired sizo by Echard. Straus & Street's new building is uearlyJU completed.

Fine Cog nac brandy that sells for $12 a gallon, that overybody loves so much is made of French cologne spirits, burnt sugar, oil of cognac, vinegar, bluestone, Jamoca rum, honey syrup, port wine, French colongue and alum.

Wc will soon have ushered upon us the sickliest season of the year, and it should be the first duty of our Hoard of Health t i inspect nil the premises iu our town So far Ornngeburg has been healthy, but a neglect by the powers that be to watch after her sanitary condition may bring on fever, and many other ail ments. There is always something filthy somewhere where flies and mus quiti.es are as plentiful and annoying as they are now. ? ????. - - rolla under his arm whoa ho said t> Or.
