WE RADICAL PARTY AT TEE NORTH. The real nature of that political organization known as the "Radical Party" at the North is, we fear, not yet fully realised. Men speak of it as though it were but an ordinary form of party organization-in thc enforcement of pecu? liar principles, it is true-but of principles in consistence with the continuance of consti? tutional government The intelligence of thc party is addressed as though it were perceptive of thc interests and well-being of the country. It?ecms to be considered sufficient to influ? ence its action to show that its course is de? structive of cxistiug institutions; and even the leaders of that party, or those, at least, who figure at the head of it, assume the at? titude and purpose io advance the fortunes of the republic. These assumptions, we beleive, arc in radi? cal misapprehension of the real fact. In every system, natural or artificial, material or meta? physical, individual or social, (here arc the two opposing tendencies to progress and decay; and it was to have been expected, therefore, that such a conflict should occur in tho political Bystem of this country. In a representative government it was to have been expected that the basis of representation would become widened; that suffrage would extend and become ultimat ely universal; that the power to direct the Gov? ernment would have become located at the base of society; that that, power, when stirred to action, would tolerate no restraints upon its volition; that it would surmount law, forms, and constitutions, to the attainment of its ob? jects; and it was to> have been expected, also, that it would certainly bestirred to action; that it would be moved by ingenious manipulators, and assuming form and organization, would roll with desolating force upon the cherished institutions of the country. This fact-so much to have been apprehend? ed, but the possibility and import of which seems to have been so little considered-has already, we fear, become a palpable reality. Of such material, a power has come to be develop? ed at the North which is not in harmony with existing institutions;-which is not a nor? mal part of our present political system; whioh has no purpose to sustain existing or? der;-which spreads like a fatal disease upon the State;-which glide? to power not under thc forms of regulated liberty;-but above all of them, and which tends to erect over the mortal remains of this confederacy a govern? ment simply of the utterances of its own irre gulated nature. That this is so, the evidences are too abun? dant to admit of question. Is it doubted that that power is from the lowcststrata of society ? Witness its organs. There is not one of them to raise its voice for justice, the constitution, or? an honorable act. They started by pandering to a vicious*lastc.x They made their bread by urging on aggression till they forced us to resistance, und now make their bread by urging ou to blood and plunder. Witness, also, the abusement of public sentiment-thc humilia? tions Lo which aspirants for office muai submit th?ir abnegation of deoouoy and manhood-the practical disfranchisement ef reputable men, such Bkna the polls as they shun the pestilence -the proscription of worth-thc elevation of vulgarity-a faro-dealer mid pugilist goes to Congress from New York-a negro to thc Leg? islature from Boston. That it is progressive and inexorably eructing of its instruments, witness the men of character who were com? pelled to fall before it in the recent war-Mr. GUSHING, Mr. DICKENSON, Mr. EVEHKTT, Mr. FILLMOHK, even Mr. JOHNSON of Maryland, and the miserable BUTLBU,-alTregarded as friends of the South,-all raised their voices in pro. test against tho effort to subjugate co-oqual States,-and all foll before this power, and not. to bc trodden under, were fcrcati to become its instrumente. Witness, ?:lf;0) what is said of it by those still low enough to speak ?ts sen? timents. To shrink from oppression is mean? ness; to support the constitution, treason^ lo spare its miserable victims, crime. Witness, also, what is said of it by tho^c who, repudia? ting ita exactions, spurn its power. Mr. HU? MOUR, of New York, stood ngaiuct it to tho ruin of hie every public aspiration, and may bc well allowed to speak upon thia subject ; Each of the mon of mind who have load in tho revolution which has changed tho wholo aspect of our country has tried lo check its violouoo or to direct ita course into better channels; and each has been trampled down aa ?uth?essly as a herd of maddened humloes tread out the lives of thoir lead? ers if they stop in their spoed or swerve from their course. Each of the?e men of brains, who thought they were guiding events, have had to pick thom Belves out of the dust into which they were tum? bled because they dared to speak out an honest opiniou which did not chime with tho coarse pas? sions and narrow views with tho mc ss of their party.. The rough-hewn, vigorous editor of the Tribune-who, beyond other men. had pushed on tho political fight against tho South until he may partly claim to have done most of all to lundie tho llames of civil war-saw, in its bloody course, that wise statesmanship could savo the Union and stop tho waste of life and treasure. Ho made the attempt, and tho wild herd behind him trod him down. An eloquent clergyman, who prided .him self upon boldnoss .and daring, felt that ho'owcd something to religion aa well os to party. Ho tried to teach men that, aa our Saviour carno to save us while wo were in open rebellion to Divine authority, we, who prayed each night God's for? giveness of our daily sins, should at least have pity upon onr brethren who had laid down their arms; but the bellowing crowds drowned the words of charity, and tho frightened divine d-3i'o not fo-day preach words of lovoand poacefrom onr Saviours Sermon on the Mount. The poot and philosopher, whose journal is read by tho educated and thinking portion of sooiety, onoo ventured to say tha,t Congress was oorrupt, ita legislation de? structive to the interests of the country, that its tariffs oppressed honest industry ajad filled with dish-nest gains the pockets of speculators and swindlers; but they nover dared to face the threatening crowd. They know that the Southern States arokopt out of tho Union because, as agri? cultural States, thoy would be represented by those who would act for the interests of commerce here, and for tho intereB s of agriculture in the North? west. There was meaning in Mr. Wondell Phil? lip's statement in the bau when ho said south car rolina would have representation in Congress when it acted in accord with Massachusetts. Another editor, who trusted to his dexterity to ride upon many animals, at onoe tried to turn the bru- ? tal throng by the bait of office, and ho has heon so tossed upon theft- horns that neither he nor we can tell upon what spot he will fall. I might speak of others aa well as these, who havo learned the humiliating truth that their abilities govern less than the blood rage and stentorian lungs of men they despise in their heaiis, and that they only have their leadership by outrunning in an ignoble race brutal and stupid bigots. Such is ihe nature of this power, evinced radical organization at the North. It is de- ? structive of our political system. Justly con? sidered, it is a fearful and fatal disease upon (he body politic-thc embodied principle of dissolu? tion; as without forbearance or mercy as thc ! pestilence, as without moderation or measure.| as the storm ; and rolling on from such sources, through such agencies, it. becomes us to realiie the fearful fact, und make such preparations as we may for the dreaded consummation of its course. It is said that prudent people at the North, when aware of the evils of this movement, will resistit. But when aware of its fatal nature, they cannot resist it, Mr. WEBSTER, would have stemmed the current with his giant strength, but only died in time to escape an ignominious defeat. Mr. SEWARD finds thc vis? age of his incantations too appalling, and takes at least a temporary shelter in the Government. Mr. RAYMOND has ventured efforts to aft-est the current, and has been thrown upon the beach. Mr. JOHNSON, no longer willing for its work, ie driven to the capital, and is scarcely safe behind i tho rampart? of the army and his' powers. VALLANDIGHAM, VORKEES, and Mr. PIERCE, have been swept from the track. The Herald, the Times, the Tribune, and other. or? gans of opinion, quiver as reeds in the current, and are only safe when they drift upon its j surface. The moneyed men and institutions are powerless as bubbles to do mere than indicate its course, and vain and visionary is the hope that j men of prudence at the North, however in? structed of the fearful tendencies of this pop? ular outpouring, will he able to arrest it. The wisest man, perceptivo of the progress of dis? ease upon his iptals, cannot, of any mental effort, lum it back ; and it is in this organized ? and developed form ol' this disease upon the vitals of state that the especial peril comes, and men arc sanguine who believe that of ils eober sense and better judgment that state can heal and re-erect itself. If this be so, it may be asked why then dis? turb the subject? Why agitate ourselves to ! apprehension of an evil without a remedy ; und why irritate this party at the North hy indica-, tions of its tendencies and nature, while ive may yet become thc helpless victims of its poAv er? To this we have to answer, merely, we prefer to do so. Wc prefer to realize the fact. We find no security or pleasure in illusions. And with respect to the feeling of this party,, wo have no concern. Of ita own oourse it has no control. It rollB on of foroes which arc dependen!, of tho feeling of these assuming to direct it. Whether it will spare or still further subjugate the South, are matters dependent j solely on the question whether it can be arrest? ed hy the Government, or preserve its organi? zation in thc hour of triumph. The promise or the purposo of its loaders to spare will not avail us, if lhere shall bc thc power and motive to oppress us further; and as we have interest in its further aotion-as there are questions still unsettled which affect the fortunes of t he coun? try-as we may seek al least to anticipate the j further acta in tho political drama; to know if in will come to violence; whether the Government j will stand or fall; whether this paity will pre? serve Organization in the event of success; whether there will be impeachment of the j President, the repudiation of his policy,\the revocation of his pardons; whether there will be attainders and confiscations-all which ads depend upon the nature and connitious of this party-we have thought it woll to find that na turo out; to lock tho creature fairly in thc! face, and, if it bo our fate to further feel ito j power, to realize Hutt fact and be r&dy to accept tl. WHAT IS BEST IOU CHARLESTON? (Commercial c?rrente are not now allowed to How quietly in their accustomed channels; new routes? are constantly being developed, and capital, backed by real hard w?rk, is every d^y forcing Irids over new, and, in some cases, greatly extended and circuitous ljne3. V? may deprecate that pirns of the carriage busi? ness whioh would sen! a b;ilo of cotton from Middh Georgia via Atknta, Chattanooga, Knox? ville, Brietol, Lynchburg, Petersburg and Ports? mouth, over eight huadred miles of rail, lo a market on thc scaoido, when it had been haled, at. a distance of lc3s than two hundred and fifty m iles from au available seaport; or, io bring tho matter nearer homo, it would seem lo bc thc very paradox of trana port uti on for tho mer ohantin Columbia, one hundred and thirty nailon from thc ooean, to Bend tim cotton and receive hi? return freight via Portsmouth, Va., four hundred and seventy railroad miles away. But so it is proposed to he done, and the considera? tion of the subject of the carrying trade is thus forced upon us, and we must decide whether wc will meet these innovations, and by concert ot action defeat them, or confine our efforts to local business. We are very well aware that there arc some who deplore the new order oi things which obtrude upon us in the shape ot telegraph wires, railroads and steamships-whe main ain that Charleston was better off when upper King street was a succession of wagon yards, and when the then infant, crop of "up? lands" was brought to town in wagons, drawn by the most patient of mules. But all that is now changed;-jind while it might be \ev$ well to run wagons and trade up the King street road, we must cither persuade our neighbors at Portsmouth to adopt a similar plan, or avail ourselves of the wires, rails and steamships, and bid for our share of such business as is now offering. But there arc also a great many more who object strongly to any "through rate schemes," upon the ground that it gives the go-by to Charleston. Now, the only way to test thc wis? dom of this objection is to ask this, question : How much back country docs Charleston con? trol in trade-that is, what sections of our own State depend absolutely on Charleston as a port of entry ? Is this field wide enough to make Charleston a great city ? Beginning o?* the western side of the State, the Savannah River draws to its hundred landings, (he produce for twenty to twenty-five miles inland up to Ander? son and Bickens; at Augusta the Central Road competes in thc interest of Savannah; on the line of thc South Carolina Railroad to Hamburg wc have a certain business, also on the Columbia branch to Columbia; but thc Wilmington and 'Manchester Road offers inducements lo Wil? mington at Kingville, through Sumter, Marion, and other ricli districts; and the Northeastern Road is cut off one hundred miles from this city by thc same line. Above Columbia we get some little benefit from the line of the Green? ville Road and thc Spartanburg and Union Road; hut the Charlotte Road has been for six months in the interest of the Portsmouth route, and has made the effort, if it has not succeeded, tc carry every bale of cotton on its line to New York via. Portsmouth. . In fact, this corporation has actually bid for the Columbia business, but not successfully. If our readers, therefore, will take amap, they will see thatbut little ground is left us on which to build up and sustain a port, offering large shipping facilities; and if we de? termine to give our attention only to our local trade, we shall not want one-fourth as many steamers and sailing packets as we now employ. The fact is, no seaport can extend itself on its own limited local trade. With thc network ol railways and the fleets of steamers to othei points, Charleston must retrograde under sucli a policy. Of course this is not to be thought oft The $20,000,000 of real estate in this city alone the millions more invested in railroads, to the dividends from which hundreds are now look? ing with eager eyes as a means of support-the unemployed thousands who would stand idle on our wharves and Btrecls-all these tell us we must go forward and compel e for business. We shall take occasion, at an early day, to renew thc consideration of these matters. WANTS. WAFTED, A MIDDLE-AGED WHITE WOMAN to tako caro of small children. Liberal wages will be paid.
