On ec reaaouand with higher pride may the t porters pf Horace Greeley announce the hesion ox the Democratic party, which, ti lag troco the things that are behind, pres on to t?ose that are before. It ls afeo idle to say that the election of '. race Greeley as President, with Gralz Brc as Vice President-both unchangeable Bep llcans-Zwlll be the return of the Democri oarty tc* power. On the contrary, it will the inauguration of Republican principles, der the safeguard ot a Republican Presld and Republican Vice President, with Dei crats as ?(vowed supporters. In the organl tlon of hui administration ant! in the cond ol affairs Btorace Greeley will naturally 1< upon those? who represent best the gr promises ma?Ukof equal rights and reconcl Lion at Cincinnati. If Democrats are taken will be as Republicans bi heart, recognlz the associate tenus of the settlement as Irreversible finality. The hardihood or political falsehood reacl its extreme point wheo lt ls asserted tl under Horace Greeley the freedmen will be enslaved, or that colored people will In a way suffer in their equal rights. On the ct trary, they have In his election not only 1 promises of the platform, but also the splenc example for a full generation, during whl hp has never wavered in the assertion of thi rights. To suppose that Horace Greele when placed where he can do them the mc good, will depart from the rule of his hone life,.Is an insult to reason. It ls none the less idle to suppose that Dei ocratB supporting Horace Greeley expect (if'.s that be should depart from those pri cl pies which are the glory of bis charade They have accepted the Cincinnati platfor .with Its two-fold promises, and Intend In got faith to maintain lt. Democrats cannot tui back, who at the convention adopting tb Dlatiorm, sang Greeley songs to the tune "Old John Brown, his soul ls marching on Seeking especially the establishment of cu:? acter In the National Government, they w: expect their President to be always '?rue l himself. Therefore I pnt aside the partisan alleg tiona that Horace Greeley has gone to u Democrats, or that he will be controlled t Dem?crata. Each is without foundation < reason, according to my judgment. They ai attempts to avoid what yon recognize as lt trae- issue, being the question between tb two candidates, or, perhaps, they may ba coi Bldered as scare-crows, to deter the timi? Nobody who votes for Horace Greeley will g to the Democrur.8, nor do I believe that, whe elected, Horace Greeley will be under any it fluence except that enlightened conscient which will keep him ever true to the prlnc pies be represents. Gentlemen, In : thus answering your two lr qulriea, I have shown why you, as colore fellow-citizens, and also all who would upbol your rights and save the colored race from lt dignity, should refuse to sanction the re-elet tlon of the President, and put yonr trust I Horace Greeley. I ought to add that with hit will be associated, as vice-President, Graf Brown, whom I have' known for years as most determined Abolitionist. The two to gather will carry into the National Govern ment an unswerving devotion to your rights cot to be disturbed by partisan dictation o sectional prejudice. Besides all this, which may fitly guide yoi In determining between the two candidates, i ls my duty to remind you that, as citizens of tin Salted States, and part ol the country, yon: welfare ls Indissolubly associated with that o the whole country. Where all are prosperoui yon will be gainers. Therefore, while justly careful of your own rights, you cannot be In . different to the blessing of good government, It ls tor you to consider whether the time hae not come fer something better than the sword, and whether a character like Horace Greeley does not give stronger assurance of good gov? ernment than can be found in the Insulter of the colored rice, already famous from the rings about him and his plain Inaptitude for civil life. The supporters of President Grant compel os to observe his offences and short? comings. The comparison they challenge cannot be declined, it will be for others in the present canvass to bold lt before the American people. Speaking now tor myself, I have to say that my vote will be given for Horace Greeley; but, In giving lt, I do not go to (he Democratic party, nor am I any less a Republican. On the contrary, I am so much ot a Republican that I cannot support a candidate whose con? duct In civil life shows an incapacity to appre? ciate Republican principles, and whose ad? ministration ls marked by acts of delinquency, especially toward the colored race, by the side of which the allegations on the impeach? ment ol Andrew Johnson were technical and trivial. Unquestionably President Grant de? served Impeachment for high crimes and mis? demeanors rather than a renomination, and , on the trial it would have been enough to ex? hibit his seizure of the war power and his indignity to the Black Republic, with its pop? ulation of eight hundred thousand, in viola? tion of the National Gonai lunion and of inter? national law. And here a contrast arises be? tween him and Abraham Lincoln. The latter In his first annual message recommended the recognition of what he called the "Indepen? dence and sovereignty of Hay ti;" but it ts at these that President Grant has struck. One of Abraham Lincoln's first acts was to put the Black Republic on an equality with other powers; one of President Grant's was to de? grade lt. I am so much of a Republican that I wish to see In the Presidential "hair a life-time Abo? litionist. I also wish a President sincerely devoted to civil service reform beginning with the "one-term principle," which President Grant once accepted bnt now disowns. I also wish a President who sets the example of In? dustry and unselfish dedication to the public good. And I wish to see a President through whom we may expect peace and harmony in? stead of discord. Strangely President Grant seems to delight in strife. If he finds no ene? my,-he falls upon hts friends, as when he Strock at the Black Republic, insulted Russia In his annual message, offended both France and Germany, and then, In personal relations, quarrelled generally. My own personal experience teaches how futile ls the charge that because Horace Gree? ley receives Democratic votes, therefore he becomes a Democrat, or lapses under Demo? cratic control. I was first chosen to the Sen? ate-by a coalition of Free Soliera and Demo? crats. Democratic votes helped make me sen? ator from Massachusetts, as they also helped make my excellent friend, Mr. Chase, senator from Ohio, and will help make Horace Greeley President. Bot neither Mr. Chase nor myself was on this account less faithful as Free Soller, and, answering for myself, I know that I never became a Democrat or lapsed under Demo? cratic control. I do not doubt that Horace Greeley will be equally consistent. The charge to/, the contrary, so vehemently repeated, seems to reflect the character of those who make lt, except that many repeat lt by rote. There is a common saying, "Principles, not men," and on this ground au appeal ls made for President Grant, feeling justly that. In any personal comparison with Horace Gree? ley, be must lall. But a better saying ls "Principles and men." I am for the principles of toe Republican party In cou traci 1st; net loo tn Grandam, and I am for the man who truly represents them. By these principles I shall stand, for them I shall labor, and in their triumph I shall always rejoice. Il any valued friend separates from me now, it will be be? cause he places a man above principles'. Early In public life I debared very little heed for parly, and my Indifference to the name by wbich I am called; and now I confess my want ot sympathy with those who would cling to the form after its spirit has fled. Allow me to call attention to another and controlling consideration, which cannot be neglected by the good citizen. Watching the remarkable movement that has ended In the double nomination of Horace Greeley, it Is easy to see that lt did not proceed from poli? ticians, whether at Cincinnati or Baltimore. Evidently lt was the heart of the people, sorely wrung by war and the controversies It engendered, which found this expression. Slr Phillp Sidney said of the uprising la the' Netherlands "It ls the spirit of the Lord, and ls Irresistible," and such a spirit ls manifest now. Notwithstanding the counteracting in naence of politicians. Republicans and Demo c2?-iD 9?5 face ?* persistent ridicule-and ^.against the extravagance ol unscrupulous op ^TOSUI?Q, the ncm'.natlon at Cincinnati was triumphantly adopted at Baltimore. Buchan poriuQii. mon y wi ta . all things exccf 1 a co autant effort sincerely sought th? sure would be best obi?, promises of the Declaration OL making all equal ia rights. The spir. I acted appears In un early speech wu?, said: "Nothing in hate; nothing In vengeance. Never have I asked for punishment. Most anxiously I have looked for the time, which seems now at hand, when there snouid be r?? conciliation, not only between the North and South, but between the two races, so that the two sections and the two races muy be lifted from the ruts and grooves in which they are now fastened, and tnstead of Irritating an? tagonism without end, there shall be sympa? thetic co operation. The existing differences ought to be ended. There ls a time for all things, and we are ad? monished by a widespread popular uprising, bursting the bonds ot party, that the time has come for esirangment to cease between peo? ple, who, by the ordinance of God, must live together. Gladly do I welcome the happy signs; nor can I observe without regret the colored people In organized masses resisting the friendly overtures, even to the extent of intimidating those who are the ether way. It is for them to consider carefully whether they should not take advantage of the unexpected opening and recognize the ball-bond given at Baltimore as the assurance ot peace, Holding the parties to the tull performance of its con? ditions. Provided always that their rights are fixed, I am sure lt cannot be best for the col? ored people to band together In a hostile camp provoking antagonism and keeping alive the separation of races. Above ail, there must be no Intimidation, but every voter must act freely, without constraint from league or lodge. Much better will lt be when th? two political partips compete for your votes, each anxious for your support. Only then will that citizenship, by which you are entitled to the equal rignta of all, have its natural fruits. Only then will there be that harmony which ls essential to a true civiliza? tion. Tbe present position of the colored citizen is perilous. He is exposed to injurious pres? sure w "in he needs support. But I see no early extrication except in the way proposed. Let him cut adrilt from managers who would wteld him merely as a political force, with little regard to his own good, and bravely stand by ihe candidate who has stood by bim. Ii Democrats uuite with bim, BO much ihe better. The association once begun must naturally ripen in common friendship and trust. I am for peace in reality as In name. From the bottom of my heart I am tor peace, and I welcome all that makes lor peace. Wh h deep-felt satisiactlon I remember that no citi? zen who drew his sword against us has suf? fered by ihe band of the executioner. In j nst association with this humanity will be the triumph of equal rights when the premises of the great declaration are all fulfilled, and our people are united, ns never before, in the en? during fellowship of a common citizenship. To this end there must be reconciliation, nor can I withhold my band. Freely I accept the hand that Is offered, and reach forth my own in friendly grasp. I am against the policy of bate; I am against fanning ancieut flames into continual lite; I am-against raking In the ashes ot the past for coals of fire yet burning. Pile up the ashes; extinguish the flames; abol? ish the hate-such ls my desire. And now, turning to the Democratic party, I bold lt to all the covenants solemnly elven In the adop? tion of a Republican platform with Horace Greeley as candidate, There can be no back? ward step. With no common sympathy I have observed Lhat Mr. Hendricks, a leading Democrat, whom I knew and esteemed In the Senate, bas recently announced his acceptance of the con? stitutional amendments with their logical re? mits. He proposes, as a proper key-note to the extraordinary movement now s weill og to a sure triumph: "Just Laws and Public Virtue." This Is a worthy aspirai lon, entirely flt on this occasion. My key-note is, "The Unity ol the Republic, and the Equal Bights of ali, with Reconciliation." Such ls my cry, and wherever my voice can reach, there do I insist upon all these, humble invoking the blessings ot Divine Providence, which, f be? lieve, must descend upon such a cause. Accept my best wishes for yourselves per? sonally and for the people you represent, and believe mo, gentlemen, your faithful friend. CHARLES SUMNER. To Dr. Augusta, Wm. H. A. Wormier, and others. THE HIGHWAY TAX. It 1? to be Enforced Throughout the State. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS. LANCASTER, C. H., S. C. The discussion in your paper In regard to the "Highway and bridge tax" ls Interesting especially to us of Lancaster, which of all the counties in the State has alone been made lo feel the b?rden of this Radical monstrosity. Your correspondent, "A Subscriber." writ? ing from Kingstree, after a review ol the law, concludes that there "1B no authority to levy, or, ll levied, no authority to collect, a road tax." You, on the other hand, take issue with "A Subscriber" and express the opinion that, the act of 1871, authorizing a road tax, ls still In loree-"The tax being payable in money or labor, at tho option ot the taxpayer." I do not propose to discuss the point made between you and "A Subscriber." Assuming that you are correct, then the law lu regard to a road tax stands thus: 1. The county commissioners may assess "a tax ol eighteen cents, If so much be necessary, on every one hundred dollars ot the lists of the county, to be paid lu money or labor, at the option of the taxpayer, and to be laid out in repairing bridges and highways." 2. The taxpayers must be notified ol' "the amount of their taxes, and of the time and place in which, and the teams, carriages and tools with which they are required to pay their taxes in labor." 3 Ii any taxpayer, aRer being notified, .'shall neglect to work out his tax ne shall be liable to pay his tax in money." The money (under the act of 1872) to be collected by the county treasurer, in the same way and at the same time that the general taxes are collected. Now what are the facts In regard to the as? sessment and collection of this road tax in Lancaster County ? No taxpayer was notified of the "amount of his taxes," or of the time and place when and where he was "required to pay his tax in labor." No taxpayer has had the "option" of paying his tax "in money or labor." No taxpayer has refused or neglected "to work out his tax." The county treasurer simply gave notice in the usual way of the times and places when and where he would be present to recel~e the highway tax lu money; and the people, with their known obedience to what they supposed to be law, have generally paid without in? quiry. And those who have not paid are threatened with executions and sales of their property. The treasurer claims to have au? thority from Columbia for what he is doing, and says that the same tax is Boon to be en? forced in ether counties of the State. i? If the assessment was really intended for highway purposes, the amount Is excessive; but nobody believes that lt was ever so in? tended, or that the roads will be benefited by the money collected. It will go, if lt has not already gone, where three-fourths of the tax money goes-"Where the woodbine twlneth." So much ?or Badical rule and ruin. So much for Governor Scott's selection of officers. 9o much for the late infamous election law, ind the notorious frauds on the ballot-box committed in this county, by which a set of officers were foisted into power who were not really elected by the people of LANCASTER.
