gro auftrage as a fixed fact, and go in with ah
{heir might to get the colored vate." And it
adds that "if Congress goes ahead with the
admission of tho Southern States, under the
constitutione that have lately boen framed, the
question of giving the negroes the ballot will
be as much a matter of the past by the time
the Democratic Convention meets, as the ques?
tion of grv?ig them their freedom ia now." But
Mr. Brooks in Congress recently gave the Re?
publicans distinctly to understand that it was
the intention of the Democracy to reverse all
they had done on this subject, as soon as it
got the power. We shall know all about this
after the 4th of July.

debate on the nomination was confined mainly
to a preamble and resolution offered on Thurs?
day, substantially to the effect that 'whereas
?the order of the President removing Mr. Stan
' too waa unconstitutional and illegal, but Secre

therefore resolved, tba* tho Senate do advise
and consent to the nomination of John M.

.WEDNESDAY MOBNTNG, JUNE 3, 1868.
. In the Name of the Prophet-Brag !
The Mercury is very funny and does m
know it. Now it takes to . task one of i
modest contemporaries for describing, wit
native simplicity, the brilliancy of its foi
tunes or the fruits of its own "unaided ei
terpri9e,"-now it hurls its paralytic thru
derbolts at all who dare to deny that th
World is great and the Mercury .is its prc
phet. It fumes, and frets, and ruffles it
feathers in a very "d?m'd moist;unpleasant
way, and when it has lectured its rival
sufficiently upon the ? duty of being dum
ta their own glory, bursts out With a GOOK
A-DOODIE-DOO which would put the Heral
to shame and bring a sigh of envy to th
lips of the virtuous FOENEY. The. M er cur;
crows lustily, and its brag is unlimited. I
brags of the fact that it has lost no sub
ecribers except those who were hard up, ant
it might be a very good thingforourjooulai
neighbor if it would strike from its rolls all itt
subscribers who oannot pay. It brags that th<
Mercury has been retained amidst th?
wreck of fallen fortunes, and leads one tc
the inference that ruin and the Mercury
are in some sort synonymous.. It brags ol
the RCTXEDOES and HAMPTONS, and throws
up its hat for the idol of their heart-the Mer?
cury. It brags, of its city subscription, and
suggests that pol?tica is business as its own
business is politics. It brags with ineffable
dxollerx of iha-art^i^'^-*""?~xn
fluence? it, and beasts with queer diffidence
that in the hands of its present editors it
maintained its influence and,did not lose its
prestige. It launches ont into a recapitu?
lation of its own donghty achievements, and
hints that if the State had hearkened to its
counsel the Club House Convention would
never have been held. It alludes to its ap?
peals to the constitution, and finally-with
a great flapping of wings-crows that thc
policy of the Mercury has been adopted by
the whole country, and that the whole of
the United States are, in fact, nothing more
than the tin kettle which clatters at the
heels of the Mercury, as it runs up and
down every lane and -alley of the great
"Has been."
AU this is a good joke, hut we submit to
our contemporary that this warm weather
is hardly a fit time to kill one with laughter.
Of course, it is admitted that the Mercury
is a very decent average newspaper, but
when it leaps at one bound into the heavens
of biggest circulation, it must expect to be
taken at its word and challenged to the
proof.
The Mercury says : "We have now no
hesitation in saying that we have the larg?
est number of permanent annual and semi?
annual subscribers of any journal in South
Carolina." This is very foggy. What does
it mean? Does it mean that the Mercury has
a larger daily circulation than any other pa?
per in South Carolina; if so, it had better not
try to count chips with THE CH AK LEST D N DAI
IT NEWS. Again, what does it mean by a bon a
fide circulation. THE NEWS understands a
bona fide circulation to be-THE NUMBER OF
COPIES ISSUED DAILY FOB CASH, OR TO SUB?
SCRIBERS WHO HATE PAID IN ADVANCE, ac?
cording to the published terms of the
Charleston newspapers. If this be the way
our funny neighbor understands it, TUE
NEWS denies that the Mercury has the larg?
est daily bona fide circulation, and is ready
at any time for a show of hands.
Th? Double-faced Policy.
The action of the Charleston meeting iu
denouncing the resolutions of the Columbia
Democratic Convention upon the question
of qualified negro suffrage, has been taken
hold of by our Northern friends, and is
made the text of a long discourse, whose
peroration is-"just what we expected. "
It is said that the memorial of General
WADE HAMPTON and others declared that
the people of the State cordially ac?
cepted the resolution of the Democratic
Convention, ?'promising justice to the col?
ored race whenever the whites obtained
power." Now, another convention is asked
for to reconsider the matter, and Northern
journals declare that they have one more
reason for advising that too implicit confi?
dence should not be placed in the statement
of the sentiment of SouthCarolina Democrats.
The Boston Advertiser goes a step further
and says : "If there had been any proba?
bility that the prayer of the memorialists
would be granted, we should have heard
nothing of this new movement,-until there
was occasion for their professions to be pul
in practice."
This aspersion is, of course, altogether
unwarrantable. The Charleston meeting
was not held because the memorial of the
Columbia Convention had produced no visi?
ble effect, and it is well known that, had
the memorializers so far prevailed as to
canse the repeal-.of th?^Reco?'strniption acts,
and; the withdrawal ?bf the* District Com?
manders and all their myrmidons, a small
party of ancient politicians-would have pre?
ferred to see Charleston go to the dogs in
4keir waj-to- having the city-saved by the
prudence of any other matu It was not
reasonable that one or. two veteran manipu?
lators should be controlled by delegates
from twenty districts of the State: nor was
it reasonable that Columbia gentlemen
should make themselves politically promi?
nent while the Charleston wire-workers
drew no plum from the party pie. These
great and unselfish reasons led to the call?
ing of the Charleston meeting-a meeting
which, with its cut and-dried resolutions
and worn out manoouvreing, may be ex?
pected to accomplish a nominal division of j
the State, and secure the sending of some
one ancient to "represent" his colleague
and himself in the National Democratic
Convention.
Northern papers may think that our State
policy is two-faced-white one side, black
the other-but they are all in the wrong.
The voice of united Carolina has not yet
been heard; when it is, the declamation of I
the old-time pedagogues will have no more
effect than the piping of a penny-whistle.
"WE AEE gratified to learn from the Mobile
Register that Colonel St. LEGER GBENFEL,'
who escaped from the Dry Tortugas some
months ago, and wa9 believed to have been
drowned, is now in safety. The^. Register
says that a letter had been received at Ha?
vana from Colonel GBENFEL, in which he
sent his thanks, and acknowledgments for
kind treatment, to some of the army officers
at Tortugas, and said that he was just about
to sail for England. This will be good news
to the many friends who served with or
knew Colonel GKENFEL in the Confederate
armies of Tennessee and Virginia.
- THERE IS evidently some one in Washing
ion who tells the whole truth, and enables
the Chronicle to ferret out the falsehoods of
the Charleston "rebel" press. FOENEY
saya that ttier "'8even"oolored men" who were
appointed aldermen by General CANBT are
all "property holders in the city," and that
this movement in thc right direction "ia bit?
terly denounced by the recalcitrant'traitors
of the.Queen City of rcbeldom, who were
recently so exultant over his order post?
poning the municipal election of C harles?
tone . _ _
ENGLAND cannot educate the Indian abo?
rigines and respeot their faith at the same
time, so Juggernaut cars and locomotive
engines rumble along together. France has
the same trouble in Algeria, where a number
of half-starved Arab children, who had
been Christianized during the famine, cry
to go back to the flesh-pots of Mahomme
danisrn now that they have become fat upon
the food of the infidel.
