THE ORANGEB?RG NEWS ? ?"TIIAD. C. ANDREWS, Editor. OEORGI? BOIilYFJR, Financial ind IH-sinass Manager. Official l*npcr of tlie State ami of OranKcbtirg County. Btip-rilJ? ORAKGEB URO NEWS HAS a LARGER CIRCULATION THAN any OTHER PAPER IN THE CO UN ty. -?a SATURDAY, NOV. 28, 1874. ' ,"T<o;pr Judge Green. Already tho Democratic papers arc show ing Mr. John T. Green that the only uso they ? had for him was to use him as a tool. He failed to accomplish what they wanted, and now they arc ready to cast him upon, the dung-hill. Sick ns ho was, feeble as a Wenk mr.n could be, yet he essayed to Bpeuk twicOj just to please his masters. He Know when ho went with Dunn and ills crowd, that he would have to submit to everything they ordered him to do. He unguardedly put his hand into the lion's mouth and knew if bo attempted to pull it out, it would be crushed. So he philosophically concluded to grin and bear it. Ho could only wn it until timo extricated him from his trying dilemma. If by chance he should bo'elected, why, be thought that the Bourbons might icspcct Gliv. Green, no matter how much they despised John T. Green, the sick. "With, this hope in view, he quietly took to his bed, and exercised patience with a thousand etceteras. Poor fellow, unfortun ate i man, ho has not only been beaten, but thrown as'.dc after his defeat, as witness the ?following from a Democratic paper, the Kerzhaic Cazettt: "W'c have much respect for the opinions of the Sunitcr Watchman, founded as much on our esteem we have for the high toned people among whem it has its chief patron age, as upon our appreciation of the intelli gence end ability of tho gentlemen who cenduct it. But wc submit that the Watch man must have been drowsy on his post, when "without consulting either party"? the wri'.tr or the person addressed?he parsed into his columns, without challenge tut w'th emphatic npjroval and endorse ment as expressing the "true course for the people of South Carolina to pursue in future," a letter addressed to Judge Green, rnd picked up near the Court House, the vhole gist of which is contained in the following extract: ?Sir.cc the surrender, your course in .] clilic3 Las alwnys been directed to the/ 9<td of rur ncblc old Slate. "Would (hat Carolina had more sons like yourself. If to, wo wruld not bo in dssgracenow, as we nro in the eyes of all honest men. I have taken no part in politics. The Democrats linv? ''been' on extremes onu way, and tho Bndicals the other. I never could unite with cither. My views have always beca conservative.' Now wc have no special objections to Ju'gc Grcca. # # * * * But wc protest against his being held up as a political model before the people of this Stale, unless they choose to be merged into *tho Eadical parly, in which case, Mr. C Lernte ilain, apart from some of his coadjutors, might serve them quite as well." r 'licf6 now wc have it. After Green is defeated, and can no longer be of any sc'rVicc to the Beurbcns, they admit that "Mr. Chambcrlaiu, apart from some of his coadjutors, might serve them quite as well. " In that charity which warms our heart to wards all tho misguided and afflicted of earth, wc arc driven to drop a sympathetic tear over the political grave of Judge Green. He is dead beyond resurrection. But he dug his own grove. In the darkest hour of our jolitical night, when even strong and s.'out hearts began to anticipate the ruin of the Eepublican party in this Stoto, he desorted us, and that, loo, in a moment when every ir.cn i\c l ad seemed almost necessary to our micee.: s. More, he took our own livery, the livery with which wo had clothed him, to figlit us with. lie got his thirty pieocs of Bilvcr. He will now feel the biting con tempt all men must have for traitors. It is not necessary for a man to leave his party to work for Beform. And tho Defeated candidate of the Independents for Governor could have effected inoro good for South Carolina by remaining inside his purty linen. Whou you leave it, you lose your influence for good. True.patriotiBm will oouec party fenlly to wenc, and prejudice will bo governed by common bouso. Lot us be hopeful. Tho day of dollvorance will certainly come ere the j lnpzo of two moro years.?Greenville The .News is no doubt honest iu its ex pressions. But its foresight is not as good ns our hindsight. There is no use in any furthor cfTort to carry Iho negro or yo with hi in in an election in South Carolina. We hnvo cni.t our last ballot for a fusion ticket, ond thousands of the white voters of this State no doubt feel tho samo way.?Lancas ter Ledger.. Thus saycth tho paper published in Iho County of Lancaster. Sco how. it belabors the more intelligent Greenville News. Talks about its "hindsight" being better than the "foresight" of the astute editor of our J namesake! What bosh. However, wo do not think that many of tho Conservatives of Lancaster Couuty will pay much attention to what Carter may have to say two years from now,?no more than they did at the polls on election day last. And as to his "foresight," nobudy ever thought ho wns tho possessor of a "good" one, while his "hindsight*1?well, Lord knows thnt no one will bother to discover the distance it enn measure; still lees will any one bu fool enough to hunt out its special locality. Tue Legislature. This body organized on Tuesday last, and went straight to work. The Hon. lt. B. Elliott was elected Speaker of tho House and A. () Jones clerk. In the Senate Lieut. Governor Qlenves still presides, with Jobc phus Woodruff as clerk. The committees of importance arc formed of administration members, thus securing to Gov. Chambor lain a hearty co-operation in tho efforts which ho will make in the interest of Re form. Protests were presented in the House against* the seating ofC. P. Leslie of Ham well, and T. E. Jones from this County, neither one of which, in our opin ion, will be considered a moment by toe Committee on Privileges und Elections. Notices was also given of the introduction o a Resolution to unseal the Charleston dele gation, upon what grounds we arc not apprised. The second duy the General Assembly came down to real business. Notice of several bills were given in the Senate, the most important of which were in regard to the law of landlord and tenant, and tho present lien law. In the House Leslie, gave notice of a hatch of bills relat ing to Darnwcll County. A half dozen different nu nibcrs also gave notices of bills to abolish the office of Trial Justice, and to provide for the election of Justice:* of the Peace, County Auditors and Treasurers. The General Assembly adjourned for Thanksgiving day, after having started out in good (imir.'t to work. Gen. Elliott makes a most admirable Speaker, an 1 will not do business in that helter-skelter man ner which was observable in previous General Assemblies. The members of the House could not have done a bot tor thing than in electing him.

Mr. Editor: At the rrcent fair uic Mr. Gill Dickscn I and myself got license from the Town ' Council to rnfllc off albums, by means of a J turning wheel, not knowing at the time that we would thereby offend any of our saintly judicinl officers, or present a chance for a sharper to make money. Hut we were sur prised and disappointed. Mr. A. P. Brown- i ing bad his spies out; had Mr. Diekton ar rested, pulled down to his oliico, out of otic case made five, and fcr those five jerked the nice little cum of seventy-one dollars from him as cists. I have the receipts in my possession. Can the public stand this? Is there no law against such practice*, aud wil 1 Mr. Chamberlain, who promised us reform, retain such men in office ? 1 shall turn tho matter over to my attorneys, theuoo to tho Grand Jury.
