CHESTER OONTKEBUTORIAL. BY WM. H. BRAWLKYi CHESTER, S. C., OCTOBER B, 1867. BTOBHEIAilSM. The gin-house on the plantation of our old friend, Major N. R. Eaves, was burnt last Friday night The fire was undoubtedly the work of an incendiary.' About tenor twelve bales of Cotton were burnt in which the freedmen, who alone occupied the premises, were largely interested. DEATH OP SAMUEL RADTEY, ESQ. One by one, as the leaves fall, our old men are gathered to their fathers. Last week we followed to the grave one of our oldest oitizens, and again we mourn the departure of one alike venerable and worthy. .Mr. Rainey, although living in York District was identified in feeling and association with our own, and leaves among us many relatives and friends who will mourn his death. . COURT "wEEI. TTio TTrvnnr .Tndra Mnnro. oDened the Fall Term of the Court of Common Pleas for Chester District, on Monday last The attendance of people was very small, because of bad weather. To the same cause we attribute the abeenoe of our brethren at the bar, of the surrounding Districts? none of whom were here except that indefatigable and excellent lawyer and gentleman, George W. Williams, Esq., who is always at his post The Grand Jmy were dismissed on Monday?no indictment having been submitted to them. The Court adjourned on Tuesday, no business of importance having been brought before it OOHVEHTIOH OS BO OOHVESTIOB. The time is near when the people of South Carolina will be called upon to decide whether, or not, they desre a Convention to reconstruct their State. A graver question has never been submitted to them, and for this reason we depart from our usual custom, in this column, of simply recording local news, to devote a few words to its consideration. When the Reconstruction Acts were first passed, in common with, we believe, a majority of the Southern people, we were disposed to acquiesce in these measures, harsh aud galling as they, even then were, and this, for two reasons. In the first place, to convinoe the Northern people that we were not contumacious rebels, as they regarded us, and fin: the sake of peace and restoration. Jn the second place, and chiefly, we hoped that by so doing, that harmony would be preserved between the two raoes at the South, so necessary to tho prosperity of either. We believed that the colored people, regarding the whites as friends and content with their freedom and with that civil v and political equality which would have been ensured to them, would be willing that the intellect and worth of the country should govern it. The events of the last few months have changed all this, and rendered all such hopes vain. Radical emissaries, headed by members of Congress, have traversed the Southern States from one end to the other, stirring up strife and hatred between the two races; incendiary pamphlets have been circulated among the blacks, to foster discord and hate; loyal leagues have been established in every town, whose only bond is enmity to white supremacy. Everything that could be done, has been done to excite hellish passions and baleful hopes. Working upon a people ignorant and inflamable, with the fancied wrongs of slavery to avenge; it is not strange that these efforts have been successful Distrust, suspicion, and hate have taken the place of confidence and affection. All the foul things hoped for have been accomplished, and a dismal gulf now separates the white man and the black man. This may not be universally true, and we hope and believe it is not; but no sane person can doubt that there is to-day that antagonism which the good men have prayed and struggled to avert but which is now upon us and must end in the absolute political supremacy of the one race, and perhaps in the absolnte destruction of the other. There is no longer any peace. Honest, quiet and contented laborers have been changed into feverish, suspicions and unscrupulous agrarians.? And Radicalism, for the time triumphant, is eagerly looking forward to the day when it is to sit enthroned upon the prostrate form of all that is high and pure and noble in our land. There can be no longer any doubt as to the meaning and intentions of this new party, which is marshalling its hosts for certain victory. The recent elections in 'Virginia have demonstrated that the negroes and the Hunnicutts and that low white scam which panders to negro prejudices, expect1 to rale. No disguise has been attempted.? j Conservative Union men, like Judge Alexander Rives, men whose loyalty was tested at a time when Unionism meant social ostracism, have been defeated at the polls by ignorant negroes and depraved whites, notwithstanding all the efforts of Federal officers to change the result Iu our own State, strong Radicals, like Marshal Epping, have been driven from the party, because they were not bitter enongh against the white race; and. worthless demagogues and adventurers and Northern negroes, the Bowens and Pillsburys, and WLittemores and Bradleys, reign supreme. Just so surely as the sun shines, if a Convention is held in South Carolina, it will be ruled by men such as these, and filled by more honest but ignorant negroes. ^ s? Can moderation, or justioe, or peace, be expected from a government thus formed? No man, not altogether blind, can expect it It may be that of ourselves, we can do nothing to avert from us this doom, but we can, at least refrain from linking our own chains; from nailing our own coffins ; from wallowing in the mire of our own degradation ; and eveiy man in South Caroling whose heart beats warm for the State which bof^ him; every man who has a glow of pride in her not inglorious history; every man who wishes to see her free, prosperous and happy; every man who desires the real interest of her people?white and black; every man, in fine, whose soul is strong within him, and whose manhood is not crushed out will spurn the vile abomination.
