We challenge you to meet us on the qu tion of repudiation, and for that purpose all ask ls the use of your columns to answer. We challenge you and 'Anti State Bon to the contest. JAMES M. ALLEX, Of Greenville.1 First of all, our readers will want to km who this James M. Allen may be, who is eager to become the champion of the Radi< junta now engaged in plundering our pt pie. His record is this*: A Yankee stoc cutter, who settled in Greenville before t war, he served for a time in the Confed rate reserves, and wound up his mart career by deserting to the enemy. For tl notable exploit he was rewarded with t postmastersbip of the town he had d graced, and is now the Radical State senat from Greenville County, and cheek by jo with the worthies of the Columbia Ring. -Now for our answer. The Ring is et dentljr getting alarmed. The use of t columns of THE CHARLESTON* NEWS is war ed to inflate the bubble of Radical cree which" threatens to collapse. Precisel Now, ?f there is any one thing to be sai which might serve to gloss over the rascal tics of our rulers, and to make the iniquitl of our State Government seem a trifle le hideous in the eyes of all honest men, u wish it distinctly understood that that is tl very thing which it is farthest from our ii tention to print or allow to be printed i THIS NEWS. This newspaper is, uow an always, the foe of the political rottennei and personal corruption which are the coi stituent elements of Radicalism in . Sout Carolina. And whoever aims to defend c pailiate these, must choose some other pluc than the columns of THE CHARLESTON NEV* in which to blow his horn. i *.. . A Den of Thieves. It has-long been thought that the Rad cals had "touched bottom," as the savin is-that they had reached a social and polil cal depth beyond which it was not possibl to go. But their genius has ? been under valued. They are capable of a deseen deeper than any that history records. The; have undertaken to explore a bottomlea pit ; and we owe it to the Radicals of George town to acknowledge that they are the pio neera of the adventurous journey. Thei have reached the lowest stage of the de seem; the remotest distance yet attainer from that angel, aspiring and benignant whom Shelley describes as standing on tnt mountain top and pointing to the unrisei sun. The plan of spoliation which thej have devised and which they now propose, for the purpose of securing the suffrages ol the colored people, is simply atrocious. The old peasants' war in Germany and thc Jacquerie of France contemplated the abro? gation of such privileges of the nobles and the clergy, as rendered the lot of the peas? ants intolerable. The people demanded the right to gather fuel, to trap game, to use the commons, to enjoy the benefit of the poor rates, and to be relieved from oppressive tax? ation and exactions. There were grounds for that uprising, although it has been con? demned by the judgment of a later age, and was punished at the time by one of the most sanguinary retributions of history. What will posterity say of the new- Jacquerie which has not the shadow of a wrong to redress, but invades vested rights only; this new agrarian policy which seeks by high taxa? tion to confiscate the lands of the proprie? tors of tue soil; nay, which has already elected a commissioner to take charge of them and distribute them among the land? less of the State ? There is no historic par? allel to this measure of wholesale robbery. The overthrow of proprietary rights in thc Roman Empire, in Ireland, in St. Domingo, was a military measure, a division of spoil among conquerors. The present project is a mere financial '.corner,'' devised by cu? pidity, in a time of profound peace, to the prejudice of order and capital and intelli? gence aud blood. Goldsmith touched the sympathies of the world, by drawing the picture of a despoiled and deserted Irish village. Shall Radicalism be allowed to insult the conscience and honor of the world by effecting a vaster and more pitiable desolation, by ravaging a cul? tured, a happy and a virtuous State, by the overthrow of wealth, industry and abun? dance and the planting of the banner of lib? erty on the ruins ? We know that invasions of private right arc sometimes required by public necessity; that there are instances when thc interests ot the few must yield to thc imperative exi? gencies of tho many. But there ?3 nothing of this sort in the ??reseat instance, to jus? tify, or even to palliate, the project of t! e Radicals. There is po need of securing a new field for labor; for while the scope af? forded to the working classes is, in fact, larger than it ever was, the number of those engaged in productive industry has sensibly diminished. And if it? were desiruble (which even Sismondi denies) to make the frced meu proprietors of the soil, what countless virgin acres still await the labors of the axe and the plough : Ifis a remarkable circum? stance, to which this distinguished writer has called attention in tiie second volume of his Etudes sur les Sciences Sociales (pp. 439 441,) that the negroes of San Domingo, who made thc most rapid progress in intelligence, virtue and prosperity, were those who cleared the lands for themselves. He says: "The "journal of the traveller who has most re "cently visited the island, informs us that ' the plains where the great plantations and "the great sugar works were, are almost "all of them still in a state of devastation "from the consequences of the atrocious war .?which ravaged them during so many long "years; but that the hill country to which "the poor negro families resorted for the cn "joyrae#tof independence and liberty, where "they cleared and planted a soil which was "entirely their own, and where they souglif "simply to provide for their own necessities "and not to provide cargoes for the foreign "merchant, present a serie3 of pictures of "industry, abundance, virtue and happiness "which soothe the heart in a land still im "pressed with the remembrance of so many "crimes." Just at the present time the tes? timony of this friend of the freedman is emi? nently suggestive and valuable. We do not know that it will be heeded. But certain are we that the time has come when thc capital and intelligence and pro? bity of the State must take a stand, in the -interest of every class of society, against that Radicalism which seeks to overthrow all civil order, and which cannot oppress and plifhder one class without inflicting a deadly and irreparable injury upon all. Wealth and Labor. It is stated by intelligent British authori? ties that of the twenty millions inhabit? ants of England and Wales, nine millions are in the receipt of an average yearly in? come of ?35, which is a little less than two shillings a day, or, if we count one other person as dependent on each of the persons with a two-shilling daily income, we have eighteen millions out of the twenty millions of English and Welsh living on a shilling a da}'. What a fearful disparity in the number of the rich and the poor. And the disproportion between their incomes is as striking as their enormous disparity in numbers. The ciass who, with their dependents, possess yearly in? comes of more than ?300, have fer their sup? port ??33 apiece, or about thirty-five shil? lings daily, and number only four hundred thousand. What this means, says one wri? ter, is "constantly increasing pauperism ; mil "lions of money spent, yet without satisfac? tion, and, infinitely worse, millions of hu "man beings whose very name implies a de? nudation in their own eyes." One writer says of the farm laborer in Herefordshire: "His ordinary wages are nine shillings a "week; his ordinary house is two small "rooms, through the thatched roof of which "the rain drops on to a floor half mud and "half broken stones; his daily food dry "bread and rough cider; his normal condi "tion one of ignorance and squaller." Things can be but little better off in Corn? wall, Devon, Somerset and Dorset, where the weekly wages are only a shilling and six? pence more than in Herefordshire. "Mod "esty," says one writer, "must bean un "known virtue; decency au unimaginable "thirty, where, in one small bedchamber, "with the beds lying as thickly as they can "be packed, father, mother, young men, "lads, grown and growing-up girls-two and "sometimes three generations-are herded "promiscuously. ". . ' Another writer says that "very few Iabor "ers over forty can read and write," a defi? ciency, however, which, in the want of the means of bare subsistence, can scarcely be considered as aggravating the horrors of the situation. The town laborer is said to be somewhat better off, though not much. In ? the two years from 1666 to 1868 there was an addition of twenty per cent, to the army of metropolitan paupers. An example ls given by one writer of a heroism in resisting outward circumstances almost incredible, but which can scarcely lie expected to bc otherwise than exceptional: "The wife of a "shepherd earning ten shillings a week, be "sides what he got at lambing time, out of "which sum there had to be paid sixty-three "shillings annual house rent, brought up a "family of eight girls and six boj's, never "had a penny from the parilrf, and never let "their girls go out into the field to become "demoralized. The girls were taught to "read and write, but the boys are less edu? cated, as three of them began to go out to \ "work at six years of ago, and one has on "this account never been able to learn his "letters.'' Such u weight of destitution and misery as is indicated by these facts, while the great bulk of the wealth of the country is consolidated in comparatively few hands, will task to the utmost the resources of the statesman and the philanthropist. Tho dis- ; ease is plainly seen, but thc remedy is not easy to be found-oven in a ruinous rev? olution. Tuore is a moral in this state of things which we may take to ourselves. The Amer? ican laborer is well paid and is protected in all his rights. The contrast between his po- 1 Bitten and that of the English peasant is as pleasant as it is startling. And if thc labor- j ing people appreciate as they should the ad- : vantages of their situation, they will strenu? ously oppose class legislation, which tends to bring about the state of things wc most desire to avoid. A Corrupt Party. We of tho South have for some timo had l good reason to know that Republicanism, 1 Radicalism and Robber}'all moan very much tho same thing. But it is certainly a note- ? worthy admission when Tlw Nation, which is tho ablest of the Radical organs at thc ? North, frankly avows that the phrase "Cor "ruptionists" is now really used as tho name of a section of tho Republican party, and signifies that the persons bearing it "bolong "to the bolder class of politicians, who, as "long as they aro sound on 'groat issues,' "really believe themselves entitled to what '-ever they eau make in thc party ranks, ..and not to be lightly spoken of." The Sutton adds that the phrase is fast losing its "moral significance," which means, wo j suppose, that the rascals arc making it re? spectable by the audacity of their opera? tions and the munificence of their robberies. That is progress under tho lead of- modern Republicanism.
