Speech of Judge Carpenter at the Reform Meeting in Edgefleld. On Monday, 4th of July, a mass meeting of the citizens of Edgeficld was held in the Court House, and speeches were delivered by Judge Carpenter, Gen. Butler, Gov. Bonham aud oth? ers. Last week we gave the proceedings of the meeting held at Edgeficld on the 2nd of July, and as many of our readers will be anxious to read everything emanating from the Reform candidate for Governor, we append the remarks of Judge Carpenter at the meeting on the 4th, J as reported by the special correspondent of the Charleston Weies: Judge Carpenter was warmly received, and after the usual introductory observations, said that while he had been nominated for the office of Governor by the Union Reform party of the State, it was a position which, under the cir? cumstances, might more properly have been tendered to a native South Carolinian. He did not claim to be a representative man of South Carolina, and it would have been impudence in any person, who had lived here but four years, to seek an office which had been filled in the past by those whose names ore indelibly j written upon the records of the country. In i the natural course of things, if his name had been on the ticket at all, it should have been second to that of his distinguished colleague, the candidate for Lieutenant-Governor. But nothing in the South was natural. Everything Was abnonnal. A gigantic revolution had over? turned the old landmarks, and the only hope of the people was in a fair, just and impartial ad? ministration of public affairs. If elected, he could not promise the lofty eloquence, the pro? found learning and vast ability of a McDuffie, a Butler, or of other eminent statesmen, living and dead, but he would pledge himself to bring to the discharge of the duties of the office un? tiring labor and unimpeached integrity. [Great applause.] In the discussion which took place on the preceding Saturday, he had been amused at the labored manner in which certain gentlemen? one of whom had not been in the State three weeks?had undertaken to denounce him as a "carpet-bagger." He always supposed that term to be applicable to one who came here from the North, or Northwest, with a very small carpet bag and a little in it, for the purpose of getting office, imposiug upon the colored peo? ple, making a fortune, and then returning home. If right in this opinion, he (the speak? er) did not belong to that class. He came to South Carolina before he held any office. Upon the application of the Charleston Bar he was appointed a registrar in bankruptcy, and sub? sequently was elected by the Legislature, Judge of the First Circuit, without being a candidate, without a cent or a solicitation. He was sorry that those who discussed this question the other day could not understand that there was something in South Carolina?something in the refulgent renown of her genius, something in her .associations, something in her social pride and worth, that could win a man of sense and honor, and make him proud to stand even within the portals as an adopted citizen of the State. [Tremendous applause] He would in? form these gentlemen, though it might not be pleasant information, that he had come to stay ?to fight it out on this line : and if we did not win this year, we would fight until we did win. [Applause and cheers.] The old ship of South Carolina was worth too much, her cargo was too precious, her career too full of honor, to be scuttled by a set of pirates without a struggle. [Great applause.] As regarded himself, the present organiza? tion of the Republican party wa? estopped from saying one word, for when assailed by certain persons on account of a judicial decision he had rendered in Orangeburg, the Judiciary Committee of the Legislature, when he de? manded an investigation, reported that he had been a just and impartial judge, without one spot or blemish upon his character, and that report was unanimously adopted by that body. It was therefore too late to commence the work of vituperation. If he were a rascal, they would love him, for "the world loved its own." It was not an agreeable task to speak of him? self, but the peculiar circumstances of the times required that he should make such an explana? tion as might with propriety co;ne from one who was a comparative stranger. This was his excuse, and he would now proceed to discuss other topics. This was no party issue. No man committed himself as a Republican by voting for him ; and no man committed himself as a Democrat by voting for his friend, General Butler. The po? litical results of the war were fixed and un? changeable. They are embodied in the Con? stitution and laws of the United States. To those laws we owe allegiance as good citizens, and by the people of the North and South, alike,"they will be obeyed. Hence there was no political issue whatever, and every good man was bound in honor to recognize and ac? cept the Fifteenth amendment, which confers upon the citizen the right to vote, irrespective of race, color or previous condition. It is, therefore, a settled fact that our colored friends arc as much entitled to a vote as any one else, and they should be protected in that right. It is not even Republican doctrine, for it is the law of the land, and beyond the control of any party. No doubt there will be political issues enough horeafter. There will be questions of national banks, protective tariffs, revenues and taxation, which by and by will divide parties with sharp, well defined lines; but to-day there is not a solitary issue between the Union Re? form and the Republican party, save that of honesty against dishonesty, and frugality against extravagant expenditure. The speaker then proceeded to review the course of the present administration ; showed, by the official acts of the Legislature itself, that a State debt of six millions of dollars had been increased, within two years, to nearly fifteen millions of dollars, and pointed out the folly of paying its bonds in gold, when every other State in the Union, but three, paid in greenbacks. Doubtless there was a cause for it, but it had an explanation when one remem? bered the remarkable speculations in which certain of the ( officials of the State had seen fit to engage with the public funds. The im? mense debt thus contracted was to be paid at last by the merchant, the planter and his em? ployees, and, in proportion to its oppression upon the rich, the poor would suffer. It was not a matter of immediate inquiry, where these eight millions of dollars were gone, or how they had been divided, and, before the cam? paign was over, the public would probably know how; but the colored people, who consti? tute the bulk of the laboring population, should understand that instead of being protected by the State administration, they were practically being, every hour, enslaved and made poorer. Great as was this enormity, there is another infinitely worse. It is the attempt of the ad? ministration to antagonize the two races. The colored man hits always shown a remarkable disposition. During the war there was no dis? turbance and no unkindness; and since the war, while the white man was denying to him the right of self-government, and thc incendi ary from the North was preaching robbery, the colored citizen still maintained his integrity, and deserved for his industry the commenda? tion of mankind. Yet the administration had worked steadfastly to array the colored man against the white man, to make him believe he ! had no friends, to doubt the honor of his old master, and to hate those who might differ with them in political opinion. This was a crime, and one day the colored people would find out that in listening to the appeals of passion and ignorance, and yielding to these unnatural prejudices, they were building a wall around themselves which wou'd eventually shut them and their children out of the pale of public sympathy. Referring to the prospects of the future, Judge Carpenter said that if the white people would only do their duty, and act in faithful (o-operation, there would be no difficulty in predicting the result. If sixty thousand white men could not by argument and personal en? deavor secure the votes of twenty thousand colored men, thev deserved to be defeated. If the life of the State, if the welfare of the peo? ple, were not worth the struggle, let the victory co by default; but, for himself, he believed the God "of Justice was on the side of Reform, and if a common interest were manifested in the cause, if, instead of sleeping upon opportunity, the people would go to work, they would see such an uprising of public sentiment as would shake South Carolina from centre to circum? ference. [Applause.] Truth is omnipotent and public justice cer? tain. A great deal was against us. The thieves in the penitentiary were against us. The thieves out of the penitentiary were against us. The i thieves that ought to go there were against us. Every fellow who expected to make a fortune by plunder were against us. Even* rabid of? fice-seeker, fresh from the North, feasting with his eye like a carrion crow upon the vitals of poor* South Carolin a, was against us, and, in God's name, let them stay there. [Laughter and applause.] He wanted no such agencies to win the battle of Reform. It was enough to him that the prayers of the widow, the faith of the orphan, the hopes of the poor, and the en? couragement of all honest people upheld the cause; that the young men of the State, on whose broad shoulders now rested its responsi? bilities, and "the old men of Carolina, (who having held her honor in a precious grasp, were passing away,) would unite, shoulder to shoulder, in a phalanx, whose power would bear down all opposition. For himself, he craved no greater boon, and asked for no high? er reward than the satisfaction of being even an humble instrument in the work of rescuing a noble people from the clutches of the devil? fish who are feeding upon their strength. [Tre? mendous applause.] The above is only a skeleton of the speech of Judge Carpenter, and affords but a poor idea of the sharp, pithy and eloquent style of one of the most accomplished stump speakers who has been heard in South Carolina tor many years, i From the Kcowee Courier. Abstract of Proceedings of the Board of Trustees of Newberry College. Walhalla, S. C, June 29th, 1870. The President of College made his annual report in-which he stated that there were ou the roll eighty-two students, an increase of twenty-five per cent, over last year. The amouut of tuition had increased thirty per cent. Authority was granted the President to con? fer the degree of Bachelor of Arts on the grad? uating class. Reports from the Financial Agent and Ad? visory Committee informed the Board of pro? gress in raising funds to sustain the College. Rev. T. S. Boinest offered the following: Whereas, The citizens of Walhalla have guaranteed to this Board the undisturbed use of the college building, and the raising of fifty subscribers to the oue hundred and fifty sub? scriber plan, therefore, Resolved, That we will, in humble claim up? on Almighty God, continue the exercises of the College, and put its President, Rev. J. P. Smelt zer, into the field, in addition to the agent of the Synod, to raise at least as many subscribers as will carry out the original plan. .Resolved also, That D. Bicmann, A. E. Nor? man, J. Schroder, Dr. W. Ware and Richard Porcher, be appointed a committee to secure at least fifty subscribers to the $20 plan, in the upper part of the State, and report to Prof. Smcltzcr. Resolved, That ail monies collected by agents of the College, appointed by this Board, be forwarded to the Trea.-atrer of College, to be held by him, subject to the order of the Presi? dent of the Board. Resolved, That President of Board be autho? rized to secure and transmit to Treasurer of College all funds due or in the h.tndsof the Fi? nancial Agent or Advisor}* Committee. The Board expressed its entire satisfaction with the labors of the Faculty of College, and increased the salary of Mr. J. E. Ilouseal, in the preparatory department. Resolved, That the Professors be requested to use their influence and efforts during vacation to secure subscriptions aud scholars for our College. Resolved, That an abstrct of our proocccd ings he published in the Kcoxvee Courier, An? derson Intelligencer and Lutheran Visitor. JACOB HAWKINS, Secretary of Board of Trustees. The Reform Movement in South Caro? lina.?The Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel thus refers to the new political movement iu this State: The canvass has opened in South Carolina. Judge Carpenter, Gen. M. C. Butler and Judge Bacon addressed a large Radical meeting, held at Edgefield Court House last Saturday, the real object of tho> meeting bein-r, however, to celebrate the adoption of the Fifteenth Amend? ment. This purpose gathered together some three thousand persons, mostly colored, who were to be addressed by H?ge, "he carpet-bag Congressman, Elliott, Delaney and others, in the interest of Scott?he of the Winchester rifle law and carpet-bag regime. The candi? dates of the Union Reform Party determined to meet them on ground of their own choosing. In other words, they attempted and succeeded, after considerable skirmishing, in making a successful flank movement. The leading scala? wags and carpet-baggers present objected stren ously to allowing Judge Carpenter and his friends the privilege of addressing the meeting, but to the credit of the colored people, be it said, they insisted on hearing the candidates of the Union Reform Party, who were then heard with respectful attention, and loudly cheered. The plundering acts of Scott and his nest of dishonest and corrupt office-holders, were laid bare to the negroes with telling effect. The addresses were calm and earnest appeals to the colored people to abandon the wicked and thieving demagogues who were leading them on to ruin, against their own and the liest inter? ests of the honest and respectable white people of South Carolina The speeches unquestion? ably had a good effect. The Union Reform Party, and its candidate?, Judge. R. B. Carpenter for Governor, and the gallant General M. C. Butler, for Lieutenant Governor, have our sympathies and best wishers for success in the contest upon which they have, entered. If South Carolina is ever to be res? cued from the vampires who are now sucking out her life's blood, it can, in our humble opin? ion, only be done by just some such movement as the one now in operation?a movement which must certainly, and most certainly does, command the sympathies, at least, if not the aid and hearty co-operation of all the intelli? gent, respectable and honest people of South Carolina. We believe that the recent coalition is perfectly justifiable, and we wish the good people of South Carolina Godspeed in their re? form movement. We understand that Judge Carpenter is in good spirits, and is sanguine of success at the approaching election. He believes that the great majority of the people of South Carolina, colored as well as white, are completely disgus? ted with the dishonesty, rapacity and tyranny of Scott and his creatures, who have been so assiduously endeavoring for the past two years to ruin the State. He also seems determined to have a free election and a fair count, so thatj if Scott is re-elected it shall he, at least, by i honest ballots.

It is the centre of our being, around which revolves all that makes exis? tence happy. When this source is corrupted the painful effects arc visible in many shapes, promi? nent among which is SCROFULA. This is a taint or infection of the humnn organ? ism, and probably no one is wholly free from it. It exhibits itself iri various shapes?as Ulcers and Sores, Decayed Bones, Diseased Scalp, Sore Eyes, Weak and Diseased Joints, St. Vitus* Dance, Foul Discharges from the Nostrils, Eruptions, Glandu? lar Swellings, Throat Affections, Rheumatism, Heart Affections, Nervous Disorders, Barrenness, Disorders of the Womb, Dropsy, Syphilitic Affec? tions, Liver Complaint, Salt Rheum, Dyspepsia, Neuralgia, Loss of Manhood and General Debility. It has been the custom to treat these diseases with Mercury nnd other Mineral substancos, which, though sometimes producing a cure, often prove injurious and entails misery in after life; The long known injurious propuriics of these so called alteratives and purifiers has led the philan tlnopicul man of science to explore the arena of nature, the result of which has been the discovery of vegetable products which possess the power of | eradicating these Taints from the Blood. DR. TTJTT'S COMPOUND EXTRACT OF Sarsaparilia and Queen's Delight Is the acknowledged antidote to all Blood Dis? eases. By its use the afBictions above enumera? ted can be permanently banished, aud tho Source- the Centre of Life?the Blood, Be maintained in ali its purity and vigor. For Diseases produced by the use of Mercu? ry, aud for Syphilis, with its train of evils, this Compound Is the only sure autidote. To the poor creature, enfeebled in mind nnd body, by secret practices, whose nerves are un? strung, and countenance downcast, THE SARSAPARILLA Queen's Delijgrht Is a blessing. Try it fairly, and your nerves will be restored to their wonted vigor, and your dejeo ted countenance be made radiant with the con? sciousness of RESTORED MANHOOD. Being free from violent minerals it is adapted to general use. The old and young may use it; the most delicate female at any time may take it; the tender infant, who may have inherited disease, will be cured by it. FOR PXTRYFYING THE BLOOD USE BE. TUTT'S EXTRACT of SARSAPARILLA AN"D Queen's Delight. When used in the Spring it removes all humors which infest the system, and banishes the languor and debility peculiar to that season of the year. It acts promptly on the LIVER AND KIDNEYS, producing a healthy action of the important or? gans by which all The impurities of the system are carried off, and the result is A Clear Skin, a Good Appetite, and Buoyant Spirits.
