COLUMBI^. Sunday Morning, August 26, 1868. Governor Orr. , ? The little occurrenco at the open? ing of the Philadelphia Convention? of SouCh Carolina and Massachusetts testifying to -the etUitmte c<wtft??be? tween the North and tho South, which the Convention was designed to perfect and perpetuate, has been tho subject of ^omraent by the news? papers in both sections. On tho pro? priety and utility of this exhibition of restored amity, we have had our say. Tho following paragraph, how? ever, from that staunch conservative paper, the Boston Post, surprises us a little: "It was a very happy suggestion of Mr. Spotford, that tho delegates from Massachusetts and South Carolina should enter.the 'National Conven? tion in unity-arm in arm. General Couch-who proved his devotion to the Union by his gallant sword-and Governor Orr-whose action in tho Confederacy was never sufficient to extinguish his desire for the restora? tion of the South under the old Fede? ral banner, and who now unequivo? cally abandons the heresies of tho rebellion-were proper types of the magnanimous spirit of reconciliation aud pledged fidelity which is pervad? ing tho ladjd, North and South, and hailed by Christian and patriot throughout the country as God's blessing." The Post has always been a sound and well-informed Democratic jour? nal-"one righteous," at least, in the hut city; trat it has failed in memory, or in it? usual good sense, in penning the above paragraph. It is a mis? taken commendation of our excellent Governor, and a compliment which we imagine he would not covet. Wherever the post of duty has called Mr. Orr, there has he always been found, whether in the Senate, or on tho field of battle. Where South Carolina called her sons to rally around her flag, Governor Orr, whoso w*1'*? previous life had been give to . the interests of his State ant r people, in her Legis? lative halls, and in tho Congress of the United States, held uot back, but responded to that call with his cha? racteristic energy and enthusiasm, and in a short time placed iu the field tho model .Rifle Regiment which bore his rame, numbering 1,500 men, and which he commanded until called to return as Senator ia the councils of thc late Confederacy. His long ex? perience in public life eminently qua? lified him to form a correct opinion of political measures, and although that opinion may have been opposed to the action of the State in seceding from the Union, it did not prevent him from rallying to her support when she ueeded that of all her sons. Nor did ho withhold his wisdom oi political experience when ?he callee him to represent her in the cc moil: of the Confederacy. With equa promptitude ho responded to botl calls. This was his "action in tho Confe deracy,'' and whether it was or wa? not "sufficient to extinguish his de siro for the restoration of the Soutl under tho old Federal banner," w< cannot, nor do we see how the Pox can, undertake to say. One - thinj we may venture to say, tlmt the actioi of Governor Orr, then, aud before, an< si ?ce the period referred to, Was base? on sound, patriotic principies, an? dictated by the highest sense of duty He had no concealments to make nor no purpose to serve, beyoni doing his whole duty to his country Earnest aud honest in all hi "action" before and during tho wai he is just as earnest and honest no' iu ?liding in the work of restorih peace and harmony to the country and of securing lo his own State au ber Southern sisters their just an equal rights under tho Governmer to which we all owe allegiance nov There is nothing in his past recor that needs to be obliterated to retai him in the. confidence of the peop] of South Carolina; and as that recor iz ono closely interwoven with tl political events which have occurrex both in and ont of Congress, ft many yoars past, and during tl: short-lived day of the late Confcdi racy, the people even of tho Norther and Eastern States can recognize i it, tho career of an honest and high gifted public servant, as well as oi of tho ablest men who have miugh in the councils of tho Union. Governor Orr needs no vindicate from our humble pen, but it may n be amiss to say that these few i marks, written simply to remove ai erroneous impression that the para? graph of the Post might tend te create, ate -written by one who, although differing in tho past from* Governor Orr ou some of tho public questions which agitated our people, can cor? dially award to him that ability, ho? nesty of purpose and earnestness of character, which, combined, give ns tho valuable public servant and the accomplished statesman. STUMPING THE SOUTH.-Tho New York Evening Post thinks "that the Republican 01 atora should take the stump throughout the Southern 'Skates, to extend the influence and organization of the party. It says: "It is specialty important that the [ Sou til should be 'stumped;' and ive should be glad to see forty or fifty leading Republican speakers under? take this work. This is tho true mis? sionary ground of the party progress in this country." Tho Wilniiagton Journal decidedly objects to this nico little arrange? ment, and explains its opposition to the scheme thus: "We beg that we may be spared this visitation. We are afraid Butler will volunteer for the work, or that Sherman will turn aside from the path he has been pursuing in the North, and seek audience in these parts. This we could not stand. It i would produce consternation in all the cities, towns, villages, hamlets rand country districts. Old women I would commence burying their bacon hams and silver spoons again. There would be a general ripping of seams in dresses to hide greenbacks in, and such confusion would prevail as has never had a parallel, except when Sherman canvassed our country seve? ral months ago." OLD THAD, ON THE RASTTAGE. -In a speech on the occasion of his re? nomination for the Senate, at Lan caster, Pa., Thaddeus Stevens said: We have not yet done justieo tc the oppressed raCe. We have not gone as far os the Emperor of Russia, when he ordered tho freedom of thou sands of his oppressed people, ant endowed them with the right of eiti zeuship. We have been too mud governed by our prejudices. We hav( listened too much to those whose cr1) is: "Negro equality"-"nigger" "nigger"--"nigger!" We are iuflu euced too much by those person, from foreign lands who. while ii search of freedom, deny that bless?e boon to those who are their equals. I may be superstitious, but Hool around and ask myself why are wi now afflicted? I view our presen situation, and remember that tin Lord is still just, and that, until w< beeome just, Ho will take care to iu flict vengeance. You all reniem.be that, in Lgypt, he sent frogs, locusts murrain, lic<\ and finally demande? tho blood of the first boru of ever; one of tho oppressors. Almost all o these have been sent upon us. Mor than the first born has been takei from ns. Wo have beeu oppresse* with taxes and debts, and He ha sent us worse than lice, and ha afflicted us with an Andrew Johnson [Long-continued applauso.] Chaste, eloquent und classic, for . Senator of the United States! St* vena, Forney and Brownlow-par tu bilefratrnm. What an elegant bon of extracts could bo compiled froi their sayings and writings! IK A QUANDARY.-Some of ou Philadelphia delegates got relieved c their pocket change in the city c brotherly love. The corresponder of the Augusta Chronicle and Sentin says: j "Five delegates from South Care I lina rode from tho wigwam in tb I street ear to Chesnut street. O stepping from the car ono of thei I proposed taking a drink. Afb drinking, the inviting party clappe I his hand on his pocket, aud sait "Gentlemen, my pocket-book ?gone-stolen." "Well," said tl friend, next to his elbow, "I will p?i for these drinks." He didn't, hov ever. The pick-pockets had "goi through" all live of them. One gei tlenian to-day had $500 stolen out < his pockets. We have heard of great many other like cases*. Tl light-fingered gentry have had a ric harvest the past few days." - - -* ? ? THE HERALD AND THE COSTED KACY*.-The Now York News says: "There will shortly be published record of the proceedings of tl secret sessions of tho Confedera Congress. This interesting public lion will reveal the fact, beyond i dispute, that James Gordon Bennc sent an agent to tho Confederate G vernment, offering to sell the iutl eaco of the New York Herald to t Confederacy, and to advocate! t secession movement^ for the som 50,000/. in gold, to be paid in Eu land. This offer was duly consider and rejected, upon tho grounds first, that the New York Herald h no influence, and could not bo of si vice to the Confederacy;and second that, judging from Bennett's ante? dents ama known character, ho wot not keep faith with them, but wot be false to his bargain at tho fi opportunity that promised a rews for his treachery." A PoaEit OF . A LAW CASE.-The MoiJIgomery Advertiser says tho fol- I lowing isa literal extract of a letter received by a lawyer in that city, de [.scribing a point of law in a case in ! which the wri?cr was interested : 'There has been a case of mando- \ ni us corpus cJiristus here, in which I j am interested, and the judge from the other County wants to supenus a mittimus on the affidavit. The other parties claim that where the cases are taken from one County to another, and there is a fenco on the line, and where tho parties are not of age, that1 tho father of the boys living in the : next nearest town having other con? nections, Who may also swear that he j is father of other boys, and that tho mother is also living and oue and tho same person, and therefore the con? junction is non complus mentis. I told them I -would let them know in two weeks. I am quite ?uro I am right, but by one word you can satis? fy me. Say yes, and I'll understaud it." An exchange thiuks the Legislature of Alabama will have to make a law to fit that case, which he calls ono of "internal suggestions und bias of jurisprudence. " Just KO. SOUTH CARO IAN A NEW COTTON. Tho new cotton from the Eastern part of this State is finding its way to tim Wilmington" market. Tho JUs patclt aays: "We learn that thc first bale of now cotton-weighing -400 pounds-which has been received this season, waa j shipped bv R. M. Houston, Marion C. H., S. C., for E. J. Moody, a planter of Marion District, S. C., to Messrs. Northrop & Camming. This] bale lackr ily three pounds of weigh iug 500 p< inds. "Since writing the above, we learn that the claim for the prize for thc first bale of cotton weighing 400 pound" is contested-a hnle from .T. H. Watson, Marion District, S." C., and sent to Messrs. Russell &J211ia, having boon in market. Wo leave the question as to who is thc lucky man to the arbitrators appointed by Messrs: Mitchell, Allen & Co." Jet beads arc very fashionable in Paris at present. Indeed, suya a let? ter to the North American, the other evening, at tho Italian Opera, nu thing else was to l>c seen on the most fa? shionable ladies present. A decidedly cool opera dress, but ! not quite KO convenient as tho Geor-1 g?a costume. BUSINESS IN NEW YORK. We dip the following from the New York Journal of Commerce: "The throng of corni try buyers in our city is daily increasing, and we hear of more on the way. This has given a fresh impulse to the demand from jobbers, and trade is rapidly improving. We notiee that credit is moro frequently asked, and more freely given, than in either of the last three or four years. While this shows un increasing general confi? dence, in the stability of trade, it is hardly consistent with a wis? fore? casting of events likely to occur. This is just thc period when over? trading, if extensively practiced, is certain to precipitate a disastrous financial crisis; and trio easy credits are a certain stimulus to ?in excessive trade. Buyers with ready cash may not always be secured, but reckless? ness in granting credits is going much too far in tho other extreme. Our dry goods jobbers stand strongly, although they have made little money the List seven months; but neither they nor the wholesale grocers and hardware houses can afford io distri? bute a large stock, at present rates, broadcast over the country, and trust their harvest entirely to a future iu gathering of collections. This reck? lessness is born of too tierce ii rivalry and overmuch competition, und the In st and shrewdest houses do not in? dulge it. We hope the others will be warned in time.. With this excep? tion, the aspect "of business is pro? mising, and our city is fairly begin? ning to resume its wonted cheerfulness amid tho din and bustle of returning trade." General Sherman said in one of his speeches during his recent triumphal tour, through New England, that, as his ancestors were of Connecticut, he claimed to he a thorough Yankee. "No one living cn the line of his Geor? gia-Carolina march, or at all familiar with the laws of civilized warfare, will ever question his claim to genu? ine Yankee blood, the same that over three hundred years ago persecuted, burnt, and murdered children ami old women for the only reason that their victims did not believe in the Puritanical heresies of the day. . [Memphis Avalanche. ! The following isa Jist of "com? memorative weddings:" Two years after tho wedding is the "j ..per wed? ding;" the fifth anniversary is the "wooden wedding;" tho tenth the I "tin wedding;" tho fifteenth the "crystal wedding;" the twentieth the "china wedding;" the twenty-fifth the "silver wedding;" the fiftieth the "golden wedding;" the seventy-fifth the "diamond wedding." A Maine paper tells of a man who, upon recovering a lost wallet contain ing $0,000, tendered tho finder 50 cents, and that amount being refused, increased jt to 75 COD ts. Pacta vg. Theories. "Give me a place to rest my lever on, " ?aid . Archimedes, * 'and I will move the ?world.'' "Give me pure and unadulterated drugs," said Medican, of the olden time, "and I will cure disease." < In one sense, both of these learned pundits were the veriest charlatans. They knew there was no place to rest their lever on, either to move the world or cure disease. Mechanism was in a backward state, and tho me? dical profession was but another name for sorcery, and all the adjuncts of magic-filters and charons of the "evil, eye," &c. But these latter days have borne unto us something] moro than oven superstitution and its crew ever dreamt of in their maddest philoso? phy. In these days of practical science, what was theory of yesterday ( is fact to-day, and all the/ old time I notions become as bubbles in the sun, and burst and break with every breath we draw. Let Archimedes shoulder his lever, and we will find a resting place for it to move tho world. Let mine ancient Medicus pant and toil no more for i the drugs he so sorely needs, for we have them at o\ir hand, ever ready to serve them at his beck. Refined in tho laboratory of Dr. Maggiel, the finest materials known in the medical profession are obtain? able by any one. His bilious, dys? peptic and diarrhoea pills stand ?*n rivalled, and his salve operates with magical effect upon burns, scalds and all sores and ulcers of the skin. In fact, wo think Maggiel's pills and salvo are the wonder of this century, and wo are happy in the thoght that many others of our brethren of the craft agree with us. We would ear? nestly counsel that all families pro? vide themselves with Dr. Muggiel's preparations at ouce, and keep them ready at hand, HO as to use them at the most opportune time and as oc? casion serves.- Vu/l'y Setitine!. INTERESTING VISIT TO Mn. DAVIS. A party of excursionists from Alex? andria, who visited Mr. Davis at Fortress Monroe, a few days since, givef in the Gfizette the following ac? count of their interview: "Mr. Davis was all we could con? ceive of-cordial and courteous-his urbanity and amiability wero charac? teristic; He spoke freely of the past and present policy of the Govern? ment, towards him and all other pri? soners, and expressed his delight that all others were, released. If there was to bea sacrifice, it was proper that the chief should be the victim. En regard to the Convention at Phila-j delphia, he said he hoped and prayed] that good might result from it. "There was nothing of complaint of the severity with which he had j been treated, but he spoke confident ly of the justice of his cause, and its ? appreciation by posterity.'J I - WHY OSE SHOULD NOT SWEAR.-An j article in the Pittsburg Preacher gives ; six good reasons why a man should ! not swear: 1. It is mean. A mun of high mo? ral standing would almost as soon ' steal a sheep as swear. 2. lt is vulgar-altogether too low ' for a decent man. ft is cowardly -implying a fear either of not being believed or ol ?eyed. t. Ct is'ungentlemanly.. A gentle-1 man, according to Webster, is a gen teel man -Well-bred, refined. Such a one will no mon' swear than go into the street to throw mud with a loafer. . ">. lt is indecent -offensive, to deli- i cacy, and extremely until for human ears. " : (>. lt is foolish. "Wantof decency ; is a want of sense. " . - The Presbytery ol Hopewell, Ga., at ius late ni etiug at Athens, voted to organize the colored members oil Macon church into a separate church, ; and to have three of its members set ? apart ?us ministers of the Gospel; that . is, as ministers for colored people, but laymen in respect to white peo- j plc. The Northern Presbyterian jour? nals are showing how this violates the Constitution of the ('burch, destroys ministerial purity, and so on. The New Orlcaus Picayune, of a late date, says: Tho rafns in Western Texas continue; every portion has been reached by searching, soaking showers, Grass has not been so fine j for many years, and all kinds of stock j in flic best possible condition, of course. Tho cholera among tho re- ? emits at Galveston is subsiding. We j do iud hear that it has broken out in thc city. Five young men recently discover- i ed a stone pyramid in a barren plain on the Colorado, 104 feet bligh, with ! a level top of 50 feet square. It was built at a very acute or steep anglo, and the blocks of stone cut smooth ou the surface of that anglo. It had evidently once been perfect, as there was a heap of stones at tho foot, once ? forming tho apex, probably shaken down by an earthquake. GUANO RATIFICATION MEETING IN EAST TENNESSEE.-Tho Knoxville Commercial learns that the Fast Ten? nessee Executive Committee have decided to issue a call for a grand mass meeting of the entire people of Fast Tennessee, to take place on Wednesday, September 19, io ratify the proceedings of tho Philadelphia Union Convention. Tho town of Monto Christie, in E< piador, ha's been almost totally de? stroyed by fire It is rumored that the ex-King of Naples will soon take his departure from Rome for America, and that ho is now treating with Napoleon IH for the salo of the Fnrn?se Palac?, the palace and feudal property at Capra rola, and the Neapolitan steamer at Civita Vecchia, for the price, altoge? ther, of 1,200,000 ?cudi. The best paste is made by dissolv- | ing one and a half pounds of wheat flour and one ounce of alum in a gal? lon of cold water, and then boiliug tue mixture until it is of the proper thickness. Sour flour is better than sweet for the purpose. (On the au? thority of Thomas Harland, Actiug Commissioner of Internal Reveuue.] A gentleman lying ou his death? bed, called to his coachman*, who had been an old servant, and said: "Ah! Tom, I am going n long and rugged journey, worse than you ever drove ' me." ""Oh, dear sir," replied the fel ? low, (he having bec? an indifferent master,) "never let that discourage .you, for it is all down hill." "It is notorious," says a Washing? ton correspondent, "that a member of Congress cannot live here on $3,000 por annum in iv creditable manner." In commenting upon which remark, the Mobile Time? pun ' gently s#iys: "It is at least notorious that few of them do live in a credit? able manner." THE NEXT HOG CROP.-The Louis1 ville Journal says that thc prospect of a tremendous corn crop has given ari extraordinary impetus to the hog trade, and feeders all over the State are industriously engaged in buying up stock hogs for fall and winter feeding... The Cunard mail contract expires next year, and it is anticipated that the postage of tho letters will alone be sufficient to maintain the service, the shilling ratebeiTig reduced to six? pence, and all the letters being sent to New York. OaP-half of the letters now go to Boston. The people ai Jackson County, Fla., will make application to the next General Assembly of that Stat?', for a charter to build a railroad from St. Andrew's Bay to a point on the Chattahoochee River at the crossing of the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad. A man has been arrested in Hunts? ville, Ala., charged with lavishing ten girls, some of whom were mere cliil drcu. One of the children has died from violence. The people tried hard j to lynch the fiend. Mr. Swan Bighum shot old Mr. White dead in the streets of Belton, Texas, and young Mr. White shot Mr. Bigham at tho first convenient ! opportunity. There were two fune? rals. The Great Seal of the State of Mis- j souri has been found. It waa dug up from the bottom of a well, near Mar-1 shall, Texas, at a place where ex-Go v. | Reynolds' headquarters were at one time established. A Memphis lady was picked up the other morning very drunk. She ex- ! plained that having the toothache. she had smoked a strong pipe to rc- j lieve the pain, and it new to her 1 he-id. That's all. An Alabama negress gave birth to I four children, lately, at one accouche ment. "Two were girls, the others 1 were boys. The woman was doing j well." She will probably never do j any l>etter. In Sandusky, a beautiful and wealthy young lady has died from mixing strychnine and love. She took the former to cure the latter. It did it. Advices from Baden announce that a Russian named Nariskine has, for the third time this season, broken thc bank at the gaming tables there, j General Kirby Smith has declined i the Presidency of tho Virginia and I Kentucky Railroad, to which he was I lately elected. j The Viceroy of Egypt has abolished polygamy, and henceforth will eon-1 tent himself with, (me wife. Family cares are too iniu-h for tho poor man. The yearly taxation of the English people is now $7o,000,000 less than in 1851, a continued yearly reduction having been malo since that time. Some wives ara so jealous that they don't like their spouses to embrace a fair opportunity. A lad in New Haven died of eating forty-one green pears. His friends call it cholera.
