Occasionally it bestows on thom1 soee -comnnendation, but 'this is tle rather "damning theth with faint praise."' The Scarocrow that 'rightchus our contemporary is tho idea theav the ftrimers will oppress the'nrch ants And capitalists. It distorted an editorial n of ours into an expression of ip proval of such action on the part of the farmers, nnd then attaeked us. s And now the Camden Journal do u funds itself frot tile same charges d ma'do by the News and Courier, al. legihe 9a w Xa -hio Nartiule i.lU be' mi -- d.

It will be timo enough to a denoune a crusade of the farmers ,y against :.hl other interests when the y farimers declare their intention of d1 undertaking such a crusade. IWe have never yel seen a cori-ction in thie News of its two art lelaos refer. lred to. 'The readers of thaut paper Sstill believe then, that the Wisssaono NEWS is "all wrong," and the Camden Journal no bettor. This is aggra viting. It is s'tl.ienutly grating to the average "'humnan"' to be called a t. fool whenu lhe is one, but to ho callcd e a fool for saying wvhua ho didn't say, Sis rather too much to bear, especially Sin this warm weaither.

A few 'nights since a ratification meeting was hlcd in New Orleans, at which ,fifteen hundred peole were present. e These adopted the report of (lie Beauregard Committee; favoring Sequal puolitical and social rights and honesty in the government. TIhis a unification movement shows (lie ox Stremity to which the people of Lou C isilana have been reduced. The dis e ase must be dlesperate to warrant sany such remiedy. Many of our .Southern journals haveo vehemiently d denounccd Gent. Beauregard for his a action in thie matter. We bolicvo Sthey are mistaken in imputinig any selfish motives to this ;entlemn in. Ile .has all along borne a spotless reputa a tiont,- snd it is almost too late no0W to Senter the Radical party from a hope of gain. The field has long ago been e thoronghly gle'tned and only a few ui scattering straws are left. Gen. r lBeauregard hras a more lncrative em Sploymet.t nod than lho can expect fromj politios, and his reputation has ,already been made. Let us believe Chat CJon. Pieaurog'ard was netuated by an honest desire to aid his native State in her estremitf. fle may have blutn do red, but this is no evidence of .dishonesty. In determini.g (li wi:dom of thi policy, soveral facts are to be bonsider. od. No outsidor can apprelate the condition of affair.i in Louisiana. Although South Carolina is in a tor. riblo Atato, it'is a paradise cetiparoed with'Louisiaua. And just as the ieo. plo of Ooorgla cannot understand our ouncessions, so we are not tiaalifid t'o pass jadgmont upon the ConeOssioris made in Lousiana. 'er oitiiens May prefer to consort with robbers and highwaynion to beig stripped of all their possessiois. But froin our standpoint wo do out approve of the unification resolutions. They will most probably result in no good. The whiles will iie divided, and the ba6ke will to deaf to ;.ny prjuoi-ion no: e imaaiig from Kellogg or Pinebbh..k, and will b"n116in11 to Vbic tte 'tadie'al.

They are not enfoicd in the North, althobgh there is the strength of the Radiddal party. Why should we consent to the i (on. Beauregard has gono too far in our opinion, but we will see what strength his moVem'ent doveiopds. The end ih said t6 s'anctify tMb teafi, and he may *be excused if ho meets with auCee's. If :e frai Is ho *ill ro'turn to the 'Conservative ranks. We db'not believe he wi'll be'omm a Radioal. Radicalism posreoses other features than soaiatl equality. It meIas all endorsement '6f Grant's policy, of the back pay steal and the railroad' gratbs, and of all the rascality that has been pcrpethratcd ill the S6uth since tihe war. Unification and Radi. calisin are two distinct things. Ono moans social equality and honesty, the other, social equality and dishon Ctty. So unification ii better than Radicalism, and because better, and because tie negroes of Louisiana have to decide the question, it will not sue coed. The Wolti Tragedy -Subsequent Conduct df the Murderer. The Walworth narder has had a world-wide notoriety. 'ho high so cial standiag of the chief iictdrs in this Bldody di-at"a, the fearful oriino of prrioide involved in it, the provoca tions offerod by the unhappy father, and the cilotamstandea attending the dleed itsolf, tvere of Ao utoml.-dal a char. Actor as to arrest th'e attentdon of every one. Tle trial also possessed its points of interest. It Was cnducted under statutes just enacted, no delay waR nade; arid the defence was c6n ddeted by Charles O'Connor; th'e first lawyer in the United States. As the trial was progressing a feeling ofym. pathy spranlg up for the boy parri cide, bebauso of thme contidual goad inigs of his insan'o jfarent; and the popular verdle't coindi'd tii that of thme Jury-manslaughmter. tbut thme siibsequent conduct of F~ranmk \Vauhvorth has beeni such as to lead t to entertain the grave doubts expressed by Judge Datvis, whether the crime was not a cold blooded mur der. D~uring the trial f'oung XNal worth eithibited a stoical Ihdilterence; and his demeanor since receiving his sentence has bden inarked witli dis gusting levity. A roportei- of the New York Herald accompanied the conviets from the Tombs to Sing Sing. Walwoidh is represenmted as having lost that. gentlemanly appearance that had distimigutislied him ort his trial; and lhe exhhbited that lind of (defiant bravado o'f la* that characterizes hardened criminals. llo stepp'ed lightly from his cell with a jaunty air, placed himself beside Guico, the wifo murderer, andl hold out his hands to be manacled, his mother looking on at the time. lIe was the t~eipient of a beautiful basket of flowers froin an unknown donor. On the trainm, Frank was carried into theo smoking, car, while Mrs. Walworth occupied a roat coach. TIn conversation lie de clared there was more good in crimi nals than people gdnordilly suppose, and he was much pleased with his fel low convicts. The convict even be same facetious, and said thdt hiA band cuffs were the first 6uffs that lbe 1mad ever had on that the perspli-ation didn't affect the starch in them, which joke was highly appreciated by his audience. From this point the Ne porter says "Walworth smoked, chat ted, joked and indulged in badinage to the end of his journey, and it was manifest that lhe wasm much more like ly to sink to the level of the rest of those with whom he was associated than to rise above them." "'The part ing of the mother and son was chafad. teristie. No signs of grief, no tender farewell. There was the gentl'est aidd nioat well bred kiss, a single shake' of the hand, and F'rank joined tihe con-. viet group.'' Walwa hi seemed rath: or to enioy the novw. i, -of donning te penitentiary'garb, remarking 1I look [ is if I had a b'so ball suit on." Ho P will be put to the saoe trade, and a made chief clerk of tlIr department. M Witth dbohuck of "Noe -prisen door I has endd inother nine days' wonder. 8 Walworth will sink into oblivion to v inalie'Way for some other otd drimi- i nal. Judging Walworth's motives previous to the k'Illigg, by the light of his subsequent conduct, we would pronounce hiin a deliberate and cold' bloode'd murderous brute, without a sy'arkof huw'anity, without a siugle insinet of gentility. No person of the orilinary mould can kill any hu. Ma being without experiencing soein t rentore ; but to show no comnpuie- C tion for having hastened'into eternity tl'uthor of his bein-g, iuar'l a degra. d.aI4 of character almoit ,incompre It Iiiedu aud inoonceivably repui.ve6.

Under this heading an article ap. peared 'in t'he \Vashington Chronicle had 6e 'opIea by the dolumbia Union-le'rald, centaining commnits Apon, an adverti'oameit ilserted 'T the Georgia Ap'ca', l)y one N. T. Crtozier, stating that two freedmen who tihd 'ontra'ete'd to iv-ork for himl th, present year Tive abaco'ndcd, and, rarnin'g all 'persons not to harAur or emply thnm. The Uhronielo is much exercised about this notice and thinku th t 'l avery bhis been p'raotically re established in or good Democ'ratio sister State. It hints thit the em Sloyer may have starved thnso labor ers "or flogged (Iern ofterser or more severely th-in accorded with their their ideas of -justice." They may ) not have been fed or lodged com1 fortably, iad in fne may have had ample causo for running away from this "Samaritan." The Chronicle thinks that proe1Jby no redress is granted the freedman by the laws of Georgia, and lie has to take the law in his own hands by absconding. Assuming that there is a discrim. ination agaiust the freedman the Chroicle thinks it don eys a lesson for them to ponder. Now we are not surprised that Col. Forney of the Chronible should dtier such senti ments, and take such prejudiced views, as he has probably never been in the South in his life and knows nothing of the colored laborer in the cotton fiolds, but we did expect better from the Union-lferald than to repro duce them. The editor of the latter paper has been in South Carolhina long enough to know that the v'ery thing which frightens No:-thern farm. ers from our State is the unreliabili ty of labor. Tihe colored laborer has tio conception of the binding powers 'of a 'contraut;,and dd latds it without hesitation. Great numbers of the colored peoplb are lasy, trifding and shiftless; and so soon as the situ gets too hot, or tho grass too luxuriant, they loef around towns and cities, eking out a precarious subsistence and stealing when they are in want The Union-Herald bopiis the Chroni.. ole's tii'ade against Georgia for enact'. ing laws to imprison laborers wher-e they violato their conti-acts, while in our own Ievised Statutes, compil ed by Corbin and liassed by a Jiegis lature, almost wholly Radical, the satne pt-ovlsion is madde. And this law is absolitely nedessary ; for oth-. br~viso there would be no crops raised. In this State the laborer has the power to oompel his emplofer to full tlis contract, and lie (doubtless has the same right in Georgia; as his legil rights are secured to him. If, as tho tJhronicle supposes, Mr.,.Croziet. huas not fulfilled his portion of the con tract, why did not his eniployees re sott to lad? Knowing as we do the oharaoter of the avarage emplofdr and the tverage employee, we have no hesi tanoy in saying thet thme tho run ttways were a couple of lady, tri. fling vagabonds, who ondeavored fo shirk latbor, wvho richly deserve, fiot the jail, but the pet itentiary. And we only wish that our farmors would initiate tho good example set by Mir. Crosier, (whoever he may be,)I and haYceovery laborer' who violatesI his contract arrested and carried to fail. Were this enactment rigidly enforood wo would bear less comt plaints about grassy crops. We be, 1 lieve in justice bding accorded to both parttes. If any employar be C fon~Ad so meaA as not to abide bj' his contra~t, let him be piunished ecoord. ing to law ; And if any laborer, after c contracting with one person hires Faimsolf to another, lhe should be' made to suftor.( ression of the coloed race. It imply compels ovary citizen of the tate to abide by his 'word and to ant ith 'honesty.
