Turnbull chanced to meet at the Congress
Springs. Presently Mr. Schell broached the
question of the existing war between the Ceh
tral and Erle Railroads, and suggested ar? ad
{) urtment of differences. Mutual explanations
followed, and lt ls said that in less than half
an hour everything was arranged to the satis?
faction of all, and the war between the Cen?
tral and the Erie was terminated. The peace?
makers then drank each other's health at the
8prings, and separated to communicate the
Joyful intelligence to their intimate Mends.

depots at the chief Western cities, and no com?
missions on the sale of tickets.
-The preparations for the defence of the

der the command of the Duke of Mecklen?
burg; at the month of the River Elbe General
yvon Falkenstein protects the coast with a
?np3 o? 58,090 men; while Geaeral Herwarth
ai; *
von Bittenfeld covers the mouth ot the River
Ems with another corps of 50,000 men. Be?
sides these three army-corps, numbering to?
gether 216,000 men, regulars and landwehr
that is, mlllila organized, drilled and armed
liked the regulars-King William'has called
out by proclamation the landsturn for the de?
fence of the coast, which means a levy en
masse ot all men capable of bearing arms, In
pendent of age. They are ?died together, from
tlmesjmmemorial, by tocsin; and when the
bells of the churches and other public buildings
ring, woe to the man who lags behind. He
is branded a coward for the rest of h i si if e, li
he does not suffer on the spot severer punish?
ment or loss of life. Old and young will turn
out at the first sound of the bells, and the sil?
ver-haired man of seventy will fight side by
side with the youth of seventeen. Even
women will then participate, not only to take
care of the wounded, but to carry provisions
and ammunition to thc- men during the fight.
It ls believed that all these preparations will
be efficient for the defence of the German
coast; but in order to make things doubly se?
cure, old hulks of vessels laden with stones
are kept ready to be sunk immediately in the
river and harbor channels, whenever the forts
and other means of defence are considered
inadequate. The Prussians hope thus to be
able to hold their own against any naval ex?
pedition their powerful enemy may be able to
bring to bear against their coast with its rich
cities._
The Plea of Judge Orr.
The letter of Judge Orr. upon the political
situation, would have had more influence if
the order of its statements had been re?
versed. When a politician is firmly con?
vinced that the object which a party pro?
poses to accomplish is "entirely impractica?
ble," and that the consequences of it3 nom?
inations, and of the canvass, must be "per?
nicious," it is only reasonable that he
should abandon that party, and join the op
I posing party, which, by the rule of contra?
ries, is sure to succeed and to produce the
i happiest results. But Judge Orr does not
ally himself with Scott and Ransier because
of the language of the Union Reform platform,
or because of the character of the Union Re?
form candidates. At heart, Judge Orr was
os thorough a Radical one year ago as he is
to-day. Then, if not before, he made up his
mind that, for bim, there were more prizes
to be won where Moses and Robertson and
Scott and Whittemore would be his only ri?
vals, than in the party which claims the al?
legiance of all the honest, able statesmen
within our borders. What Gulliver was in
Lilliput, Judge Ol hopes to be among the
intellectual pigales of the Scott party. A
Triton among minnows, he hopes to hold
an undisputed sway in the slimy depths
of the pool of radical politics. Long
before bis elaborate conversation with
a Tribune reporter, he had, so to speak, 1
burned bis ships behind bim. And the people t
must understand- that Judge Orr does not r
declare that be will vote for Scott and t
Ransier because he believes that the Union c
Reform Party cannot win. The plain truth S
is, that he declares that Scott and Ransier r
must be successful, because he had long ago e
committed himself, beyond recall, to the for- C
tunes of the party of corruption. Unless the c
Reformers be defeated, Judge Orr is undone, r
No wonder, then, that, like the fox who bad v
lost Ita tail, be endeavors to persuade his old c
companions that the ugly mutilation is an ?
honor to covet, rather than a disgrace to l
shun! No wonder, then, that James L. t
Orr, running counter to the counsels and t
opinions of every eminent man and every n
honest citizen in South Carolina, labors to
convince his fellow-citizens that he is in the f<
right, and they are in the wrong ! 3
And what are the ostensible reasons of ii
Judge Orr for believing that the Union Re- c
form party cannot win, and that the couse- a
quences of the canvas"? must be pernicious ? e
He admits that "some" ol the State offices ti
are filled "by incompetent and corrupt men, p
"who should be driven from the places they V
"occupy," and he admits, besides, that "more t
"economy" should be practiced in "the ap- li
"propriation and disbursement of public v
"money." But while confessing what even he s
dare not deny, Judge Orr argues that the I
"thirty thousand majority" which the Re- c
publicans have: their control of all the de- ii
partments of the State Government; and the g
threat of "ref?mning the parly by destroy?
ing it? make it impossible for the Reformers I
to be successful, and divert the party in c
power from "a careful examination into the c
fitness of those seeking to represent them, t
and from abuses and corruptions existing in (
the party." That is to say, the Slate might s
obtain from the mercy of Scott what it can- r
not extort from hi3 fears; that the highway S
robber will make restitution, and cut throats t
and purses no more, if hi3 victims will fore- 1:
go the menace of prosecution, make no re?
sistance, and spare the hardened culprit while !
he stands ix the very shadow of the gallows.
Daring two years the Scott party have had
absolute control of the State Government. c
They were securely in office, and their re- (
election and their whole political future de- e
pended upon the honesty and ability of their J
conduct. No abandonment of opposition
could make them aa safe to-day a3 they have 1
been for twice twelve months. And what have .
they done? They have plunged the State v
into debt; they have doubled and trebled =
taxation ; they have, from the highest official 8
to the lowest, conducted themselves with so r
notorious a profligacy as to bring down upon r
their heads the merited condemnation of s
every good citizen at home, and of every
good citizen abroad. We have the right to 1
judge their future by what their past has 1
been. Nor does Judge Orr dream that the ?
Scott party, if re-elected, will behave with 3
more deceucy and with more regard for the c
good of the State than they do now ! Judge -
Orr distinctly says that "the antagonistic
"position of the Reform party, not only to -
"the alleged corruptions and abuses of the .
"Republicans, but to the existence of the ??
"part}- itself, not only precludes all hope of
"enlisting its members under their banners, t
"but forces them (the Republiaans) in their
"campaign, to look more to self-preservation
"than to any corruptions or mismanage
"ment of its members" These are signifi?
cant words. f
In the Ilr3t place we assert that the Union
Reform party is not "antagonistic_to the *
"existence of the (Republican) party itself," {j
and this Judge Orr know3 to be true. The f
Union Reform party is a State organization
for State purposes. Its candidate for Gov?
ernor is a Republican, and among its sup?
porters are hundreds of white Republicans. :
It make3 no contest against Republicanism ; "j
it fights against the Scott Ring, which is as far J
from bein.; a Republican party as Judge Orr
is from being a United States Senator.3 This
'act is recognized by all the leading Republi?
can newspapers of the North, excepting al?
ways the New York Tribune and Forney's
Chronicle and Press. They say distinctly
hat Scott and his fellows would kill any
party, and they 'deny all responsibility for
the hideous crimes committed in South Car?
olina in the name of National Republican?
ism. . Upon every occasion the Scott Ring
have repudiated and rejected the few respec?
table Republicans' who might have curbed
their extravagance and made stealing odious.
They reject a Sawyer and hug a Whittemore
to their bosom. All this is no news to
Judge Orr. He is well aware that the Re?
formers wage war against theft and igno?
rance, and not against Republicanism. He
is well aware that neither he, nor a thousand
like him, can cause the dissolution of the
Union Reform Party. That is all of the
question. A contest there will be, and a
fierce one, whatever the result. But Judge
Orr solemnly says that the very existence of
the Reform party will "force them (the Be
"publicans) in their campaign io look more
"co self-preservation than to any corruirtions
"or mismanagement of its members, and to
"that extent is a serious injury to the State."
Mark this! Judge Orr, in effect, declares
that the reform of abuses and the self-preser?
vation of the Scott Ring cannot co-exist !
It is evident that in his opinion any attempt
by the Scott Ring to reform the abuses
which, he acknowledges, do exist, would
weaken their chances and jeopardize their ex?
pected victory. Can there be a more scan?
dalous admission than this? For the sake
of self-preservation, the Scott Ring must con?
tinue the system of extravagance, ignorance
and corruption which in two years have
made the State Government a very sink of
iniquity. And, knowing this, and admitting
its truth, Judge Orr chooses this moment for
the announcement that he will vote "for the
"nominees" of what he calls "the Republi?
can party." We are forced to believe that
he will be more at home, cheek by jowl
with Ransier, W . temore and Scott, than
?ide by side with Carpenter, Kershaw,
Bampton, Conner, Perry, and the host of
?cod men and true who, sinking all minor
differences, band themselves together for the
redemption of the State.
One famous argument made use of by
Judge Orr deserves notice for ita ingenious
falsity. Thia ia, that the State of Vermont,
rolling up for thirty years its twenty-five
thousand Whig majority, is a fit illustration
o? the struggle and constancy of party or?
ganization in securing self-perpetuation.
The answer to this ia plain. Vermont waa
never cursed with a government like that of
South Carolina. The people knew that,
vbich ever party won, they would have an
?onest State Government, and full protec-.
ion for life and property. There was no
enson why Whig and Democrat should work
ogether. They had no common object to
ibtain, no commou danger to avert. But in
louth Carolina the Democrat and the Re
lublican, the white man and the black, are
qually interested in the overthrow of Scott,
)rr <fc Co. Outside of the office-holding
laS3, there ia not a man in the State who is
lot impelled by the instincta of self-preser
ation to work with the Reform party. The
onditions are wholly different "What could
lot be done in Vermont can be done, and
rill be done, in South Carolina. Nor is the
ask so difficult as Judge Orr would make
he people believe. lu 186S the Republican
Qojority in South Carolina waa a bare 17,000.
LU the freedmen were then casting a vote
sr their own enfranchisement There was
omething to hope for from the new admiu
?tration. Now the enfranchisement of the
nlored people ia aecureU beyond doubt, and,
s Judge Orr tella ua, we have nothing to
xpect from Scott and his Ring but a repeti
iori of a sickening story of brigandage,
rofligacy and wholesale public plunder.
Pith the exception of Judge Orr himself,
here ia not a prominent man iu South Caro
ina who has joiued the Scott party. Nor
fill hia example tempt othera to make the
ame fatal leap. Voltaire said of Admiral
iyng that the English hung him pour en
ourager les autres. In this sense the po?
etical Hari-Kari of Judge Orr may clo some
jood.
The whole State is united on the side of
leforra, whatever Judge Orr may say. He
:annot make or mar our fortunes. The goal
>f his ambition la well known, and before
he year is out, whatever the result of the
)ctober elections, Judge Orr wilt realize
icutely that the ingratitude of Rep?blica Ls
tothing to the deliberate faithle33nea3 of
Jcott and his colleague. Judas did receive
he thirty pieces of silver. Aa much will not

?The Fourth Congressional District.
We notice with pleasure the nomination
if General J. J. McKi33ick, of Union, as the
jandidate of the Union Reform party for
ilectton to Congreaa from the Fourth District

ie was a good soldier, and in peace he ia a
vorthy and faithful citizen who3e sterling

We congratulate the Reformers of the
