f none like it in the world in dignity

v ho does~ not want to go to the Senate,
I I shoul d eve r be so for tunateo, .I

The Danger of Cotton Rlags.
An expertinenting Dotroit chemist
took a pibeo of threadbare cotton
cloth, and having smeared it with
boiled linseid oil, placed it in the cons
tro of a chest tilled with paper and
rags. Although the room was not
tight and the weather was cold, there'
was a emell of fire about the room iti
eight dayo. Unpacking it, the ex
perimenter found the rog, half-ocharr
od. In April he inado a similar ox
periment with a pair of painter's over.
alls, which he rolled up with pine
shavings, and crowded it next to the
roof-boards of a loft. In a week the
smell o'' fire alarmed a workman in
the next rooni, and the overalls were
found to be on fire. And during the
very hottest weather a handful of old
cotton rags, not smeared with oil, be
came hot encugh, when hung up in a
tin box in the sun, to light matches
which he had placed among them.
Those facts show the necessity of Cau
tion in putting away old rags, espe
oial lylthooothat may be saturated with
Dil, bonsine; or other inflammable sub
stanoe.
WINNSBORO.
Weduosday:Morning, rob. 28, 1872,
ftoiw We are Taxed.
Two bills have been recently intro
duced in the Legislature fixing the
rate of taxation for the present year.
Under one it is proposed to levy a
Stato tax of 15 mills, and under the
other 19 mills, on the dollar. Either
of these rates can be safely put down
as exhor bitat, oppre0nive, and won
Atrous in the extreme, and shows
plainly the animus of the party in
power, who seem determined both to
rule and ruin the State.
The tax levied by the N. C. Legis
lnture, just adjourned, is 4} mills on
the dollar. This includes tax for
Asylum, common or free schools and
ill other State expenses. North
-oarolina has in aquare nilles 00,700,
whilo In South Carolina, there are
29,380 square miles, showing 21,820
square miles loss than in the former
State. F"rom this it will be soon that
North Carolina nearly doub'es this
State In territory.
We aro inlormod by reliable
iources that tho whole assessed value
)f taxablo property in North Caroli
iun during the year 1871 was loss than
$123,000oo,I',) .00m.c ttie i xablo pro
porty in tI. tuaj was aieonscd and
axod at the value of $182,000,000,
yr' about one-third more thanm that of
North CarolIna. In other words, that
he property of North Carolina, which
is about one third more than that of
Southi Carolina, is v-alued at one
third less for taxation. From this we
uonciudo that the valuation in this
State is too high, or that of N. 0. too
low. Why is there this differonee ?
[t is owing entirely the fictitious val
uation put upon01 land by an ignorant
and corrupt Board of Equalization,
who are about as competent to dis
charge their duties on the lloard, as
~hoy would be to draw a mnap of the
beavenly regions.
TIho above gives a clear insight into
one of the great frauds that the land
holders and tax payers of this State
bave suffered. Their property is
dloublod and trebled in value, and
laxed accordingly, to enrich Rtadical
thieves and plunderers.
After assessing property at donble
its value, it is now proposed to levy a
tax of 15i mills, or 14 per centum,
while in North Carolina it is only 44
mills, or less than 4 per centumn,
thus showing that we pay taxes on
property doubly valued, the rate be
ing threo times moure than the true
per centum, making our taxes six
times greater than in North Carolina.
This is an iniqjuitous scheme, whiclh
will, if carried on much longer,
amount to virtual contisoation. It is
enough to damn the lRadical party for
all time.
The Liberal Movenutentl.
We have had occasion to refer be
fore in our columns to the probable
formation throughout the whole coum
try of a party composedl of all who are
unfriendly towards the present Na
tional A dministration, and opposed to
Grant's re-election. That such a
movement is gaining ground rapidly,
is a matter of extreme gratification 'to
the lovers of constitutional govern
mont, holding ump, as it certainly does,
some rays of hope that a raore pros
perous time is in atore for our eonn
try, arnd particularly for the people of
the South1, who have suffered so mnuoll
from tyranny and oppression.

To our imind, the only course that is
left to the Southern people to pursue
is to glie their whole support to this
proposed eoenition. 4f the entire 0on.
servative Ielements of the country,
and assist theroby in the overthrow of
a party that has - nearly kucoeeded in
blotting out the original prineiples
upon which this g.vornment was
founded. The National Democracy
have no chaneo whatover of winning
the Presidential election alone and
unaided, and it would appear ridicu
lous to put the party iii the field again
when there is so little cncouragement
for success.
It is high time that we should
learn something fruin past experiouce,
and make a pructical effort towards
destroying the monster Radiculism.
It would be well for our people to
consider seriously this question, for
its magnitude and importanco is no
small matter.
We ourselver expret to advance as
much as lies in our power this new
movement, for in its success wl'l be
secured the salvation of the Ameri
can Union.
The P'oltica Outlook In the
statte.
The events of the past motith have
to no inconsiderable extent thrown
light upon what will undoubtedly be
the political status of the Stato for
a long period of time.
It will be remembered that tat the
late Hadical tJonvention, hold in Co.
lumbia the 19th ult., rosolutions were
adopted endorsing the administration
of 0ov. Scott, and as that Conventlon
was certainly a representative body of
the Radical party in this State, we
naturally conclude that a majority of
that party approve of the manner in
which our State government is ad
ministered, and w iuk at the fraud and
corruption that has been unoarthA
and exposed even by their ewn
friends and supporters.
The situation of public affairs is
simply this, that those now in power
are disposed to pass over in silence
the montrous villainies that have been
perpetrated by men holding high po.
sitions, and tacitly set the seal of ap'
proval upon the conduct of thieves
and swindlers, degraded public ser
vanits, who have used their time in
filling their pockets with the scant
substaneo (f an almost wholly lipov.
erished people. Is it not enough to
strike alarm and drspair to the hearts
of the lovers of good government to
IOntemplajlate even for a moment the
condition of this onet- proud State 7
And I ben too to be forced to the belief
that there is no available practicable
remedy for our misfortunes. With a
majority of twenty -five thousand bola
stering up tihe p'1 daent regimej what
hope ean there be for a change ?
None, that our short-sighted wisdom
can concive of.
We are cotopletely at the merey of
an enemy withioit remorse and mnag
naninmity, aind there is no course left
us5 but to bear our woes with a
m itly antti courageous heart, devote
ourselves to our different callings, and
await the return of that spirit of jus
tIce- whieb should charactcrizei a par

This honored citizen of illinois and
member of Congress is looming up
before the country as the candidate of
of the Liberal Reopubllicans against
the Grant party. His record in the
U. S. Senate for the past sixt months
entitles him to the frotnt rank of
American Statesmen. llis course
has been one of eminent consistency,
and~ in every way conciliatory towards
the South. We wosuld hail wh

ter i the lobby of the Senatds *hich
although not resulting in serious con
serquences, was of rather a tiireateon
sng character. The fair revolutidnist
charged this grate and lreverend seigJ
nor with treachery to the Oause of
which ho had professed himself a
champion-the enfranchisement of
woman-and denonnced hitti in uts
mcasured terms, declaring herself de
tcrmined to organir:e thre fcima~e eles
ment against him and all such ashhm.
As the lady proceeded With a sketch
of the plarr of operations the Senator
remarked , "'Ph. worri of Wisoon
sin are aill my friends" '-tes," re
plied Victoria, "and if rumor 'speaks
truly, you have lady friends belong..
ing to other States/' Mr. Carpenter
suggested that she might get into
IPortress alonroe if she was t og free
with her revolutis nary sche mos, to
which she replied "All right ; if your
people think that is a good thing ta
do, do it, ; I have no objoetions/'
She, assured the Senator in the most
positive terins that for his treachery he
lhe should pay dearly, and that they
would put five hunidred female orators
into the field against the Repub'lican
party, and the laugh, she declaredr
would be on the other side of the face
when thdy went through the country
giving the characters of the mnen now
misrepresenting the people. The
scene was a very funny- one, and the
female orator had rather the best of
