THE .TAIRFIED HERALD WINNSBORO, S. C. Wednesday Morning, Sept. 22, 1809. lke0poudespWilliams & Co., P"'pg The Mischief of the Uion" Aepudiation Moyoment Exposed. :A clearly ddbfned and thorough realization of the nature of tho State goiernmeot, to wlich, unless we are ready to make the trial of forcible rettiltation, it is our duty, as good citi zcns, toqubpit, and mitoreover, to iin prove it, if we' can,-would convince any candid man, thtt the repudiation mnovement started in Union, is only inisehievous, and must result hi fail ure.Ours is a government of the majority. We do earnestly wish that all sober mon would rofeet upon this indisputable fact., for it involves tre mundouscousequences, and none more cleirly, than) that it is by convincing and persuading the majority actually in power, or by supplanting them, and by those moans aloiie, that any indi vidual or any party can effect any. thing. We admit that a threatening attitude has influence ; but only when it is plain that there is real danger of the party waking the threat, being able to make it good. The policy we recommend is a throat--a threat that, by conuiliating the blacks, we tax. piayers will got the majority, and thore is real dangor to the Radicals in it : they know it, and will be re strained, or at least guided by it. But there is no sense in this threat of repudiation, because it will antago niso the races and sot every black voter in the State square and solid against us, and keep the conser vatives for years to come In a most im; potent and ridiculous minority. And yet it will depreciate the credit of the State, increase its debt, and augment our taxation and the inequalities of which we have this year complained. What ? ask the black man to vote the di.siionor of the government that has given hm. political power and posh tions of honor and trust I We know his want of education, and believe Iti nm watch for the white man in intelligence, but is lie such a fool as to do this ? If lie cannot himself see the case clearly, are there not white brains enough in tho Radical party to make such a humiliation plain ? No I Ie will join you to improve, but never to dishonor and disgrace the present State government, Such a measure as this lolonged very properly to that o't and out white mon's platform which we fought on last year, and were completely and hopelessly whip. po'l. Our goeration at least cannot mako that issue again. Let it drop. It is very hard to convince obsti inate meni, who, in this free country, are allowed to live and die, not knowing when they are whipped. Advocating anm impossible policy, they thrust more modest mon aside, or pour inan ill-~judg6'd fire of all shot in their roar, whenm such men advance to do vote their hearts and their brains to the sorvico of the State they cherish and the afflicted people they love. But we at least will not be deterred from the pathm of duty, We hay. had the honor of provoking the disussoi of "the third party aidvetnent," which the Charleston News assorts ' has been thrbttlcd at its birth I"' May every idea we. may advance that is good for the State9 be "throttled" In precisely the same way. lBut why did we provoke thme discussion, and re ject withm earnestness time suggestion that lt was premature B ecause ideas work their way vecry slowly ; be. cmuse we wish no onergy wasted next .year in just such feeble foolery as this repudiation vnovement ; but desi ro to have the mneans to be used--oonilla. tion of, the blacks-.~agreed upon unamnimomusly tong befores a$ the public ynind of every good citisen of the good Stat. of ' South Oar-eling, aboth black anud white, moulded to but ond-thought. and' but one pur'pos4.

Wo ouraelvq be- ' lieve in things, not in names ; in P rinclples, not In words. "Worda" r says Baoi, "are the counters of wise men, but the coin of fools." The State prosm would do well to ponder that weighty thought, and drop the word Democrat. Human wisdom and power consists 01 not in changing the nature of things- fi that would be a bootless task to un- ti dertake-but in adaptation to things a as they are. If a name has no long. i Zr er any intelligible meaning, drop it. If "Domoorat" means something ;C odious in State polities, and i4 nation- w al polition, means being at sea and go- It ing to do something or other, but what a no one yet clearly understande, drop , it in State politics altogether, and in fe national politics, wait and watch. It s< seems not improbable to ourselves ti that the administration may bid for, r( and really deserve the vote of South Carolina, during the course of the p next three years. Let us take care ti of our State first, and be free to tako ri either side in our national politics, in 1872. Meanwhile, if Grant contin- b ues conservative, as he has now be- b come again at least for a week, don't b4 let us lose such a card in State polition I as a lusty shout for Ulysses. It will pay, gentlemen ; be assured, it will r4 Pay. -0 We have got to manage this power- ti fut locomotive that is carrying us, ac ti cording to Its nature. The Phanix tj talks well and to the point about "a E nore practical -and scientific educa- d tion." But we tell the Phewuix that C the one great education and science l needed in South Carolina, both politi. i cally and industrially, is not geology. T not mechanics, not ohomistry, but as.It has been happily termed, niggerology. L Niggerology is the crying need. If the State press would oease to bom. bast over "time-honored principles" (whatever that may mean) and take a r lesson or two in niggerology, oven h1 from that much-abused adventurer, J the carpet-bagger, it would be a bos- 1 w sing to the State. Niggerology would *o be worth more to us than a thousand ,ol Democratic alliances" or fifty thous- Ic and time-honored pridelples." For assuredly, if the thing, our govern- or ment, both State and national, has p, changed its nature, we had better si change our mode of dealing with it. ' As to the Winnsboro Naws, It has held this view long. Its editor was really the author of the conmmunica- gi tions signed "Common Sense," that vi appeared in its columns, and ho held these views long before they 'appear. al ed.
