COCUJUBLS: Sunday Morning, September 16,1866. The Hight Name. Wo do not know who has the honor of dubbing the faction which ?ow keeps the country in distraction with the name~of radic?is; but whoever it was, showed^ himself] an apt god? father, for no more appropriate name could be found in all the political lexicons of the world. The members of that faction wero bora radical, lived rn dical, and will die-^t Ut? be hoped shortly-radical . "*? the " Inst gasp. XhV>fcrt^fron#*W the HS* cation? ol the present time, is in its death-throes, and every struggle ex? hibits the deepning intensity of radi? cal hate, nutl?gnSly and spite. ' ' The present Chief Magistrate of the Union is the principal object of their malignity, and we have little doubt; had they the courage, they wonld depose him in some other way than by an impeachment. He has thus far foiled them, to the extent of his Constitutional powers, in their more wicked schemes; and it is to be hoped that'he will, eventually, by the aid of the true people of the country, be able to crush ont and demolish thc whole cabal. They now moke a new demonstra? tion, not only against the President, but for the abolition of the Presidency itself as an institution of the Govern? ment. One of the most influential organs of the party-the Boston Commonwealth-is rather glad than otherwise at the strife now existing between the legislative and executive departments of the Government, on tho ground that it will eventuate ir thc abolishment of the office of Pre sident altogether. It says, "the coan try can do very well without a Chie: Magistrate, and that th? Constitutioi must be so changed as to remove al check upon Congress." We do not regard with much ap prehension, the ravings of Thad ?Stevens or the braying of Brownlow but tho article from which we quot above is deliberately written, and i an unmistakable manifestation of th schemes of the radicals for the eec tralization of power and the rnin c the country. Should these destrucl ives acquire the power they are DC fighting like devils to obtain, the would wipe out the Constitution a together and convert this countr into a pandemonium of anarchy an universal rioting in wickedness < every form. God save the Republi from such a destiny. Ont RECEIPTS OP GOLD raost ET J ion-.-Gold still continues to oom over to this country from Europe i heavy shipments. On the 10th ii s tant, the steamer City of Bostoi from Liverpool, brought over $250 OOO, and the Hermann, from Soutl umptun, brought $310,000. Then w have tho information by the cab] that ou the 8th . of September, th Jura sailed from that port wit nearly Si,500,000 in gold among hi precious freight. Ai this rate, th term sporadic will hardly apply t this returning tide in gold; but : must be attributed to some gene? and important re-action abroad i favor of American securities and ii vestments. Meantime, our increase receipts of gold from California, Ar zona, &c, are equally remarkabl Our receipts from San Francise since January of this year have bee over $29,000,000, against some $12 000,000 for the samo period la year. With such substantial facts i our favor, we cannot perceive why 8 early return to the specie stands] and specie prices should be regard? as an impossible achievement. Ever thing is operating in favor of th great result, it appears to us, exee; the head of the Treasury, who do not seem to comprehend tho meat and advantages within his grasp. Grant is still "moving on the wari of the enemies" of the Union, ai "fighting it out on that line." Tl radical di sn monists, who once e hausted the vocabulary in praise him. are now beginning to conclue that he was only accidentally gres and that he is not much of a soldi after ali. His statesmanship is belo the average of such men as "bottle up" Butler and Burnside, and li patriotism and purity of motive u thing to compare with Forney's. Gen. Hbod, when in. Austin, Tass the other day, was waited on by Committee" of the Legislature ai escorted to seat of honor in that bod 'IM Jill lull. HU T It is with extreme regret that we chronicle the retirement of tfe Hon. ti?n. Wood, from tte editorial onn fict of the above named jpurs*L ur readej are ?bt unfamiliar ^th ??ho-?sKio ?A eharao*?- o# Hier News, ? for we have frequently extracted from its columns. It was one of the few journals of Now York which, from the beginning, was a firm and con? sistent advocate of tho rights of tho South; and since tho close of the war, haft done good and efficient, service, in battling against tho radicals and their wicked measures. Mr. Wood became tho yaropriefcor of the News, in 18G0, and for his hold and manly articles, denouncing tho war and vindicating the South, Mr. Seward's little boll closed the office of the Neus, for eighteen months. As soon us the suppression of newspapers became odious to the people, Mr. Wood again issued tb^ Netes, and the first number of its re-issue, in the tone and character of its articles, was even stronger, if possible, in denun I ciation of the war and in defence of the Constitution and the rights of tho people. Through all the vicissi? tudes of tho campaign, the leadiug articles of the News were marked by an ability and dignity which eoin manded the attention of thc people. The News had become a great favorite at the South, and deservedly so. Its proprietor was liberal and open-hearted to many of its citizens who needed aid, and especially did Mr. Wood extend a helping hand to tho proprietors of the Southern press, in enabling thom, when their property was destroyed, U> resume the publication of their journals. When tho proprietor of the Pkoni.e visited New York to make arrange? ments for the improvement and en? largement of his paper, he found no truer or more substantial friend than Mr. Wood, and takc3 occasion, on the retirement of that gentleman from the field of journalism, to make his grateful acknowledgments, and to speak those words of kindness, ex? pressive of u friendly interest in. his future prosperity and happiness, which we find to bo tho universa! tenor of all tho articles written b} our cotemporaries iu noticing Mr. Wood's withdrawal from the duties and labors of a journalist. AT LAST.-We presume that noui of the radical disunionists will nov deny, says tho Philadelphia Aye after yesterday's exhibition in om streets, that they oro in favor of negri equality? Not even thc most shame less of them can any longer utteuip to make political capital by endeavor ing to ignore that doctrine. Yester day the matter was clearly reduced t( practice. lu the same procession ii which were members of tho Unioi League, the citizen's escort, and th? few "Southern Loyalists" who wen present, Frederick Douglass and tin other colored delegatos marched sidt by side with white mon. That theri is any reason whatever why thes< colored delegates should not be in th? very company they happily foum themselves yesterday, wo do not pre tend to say; but let tho matter b distinctly known, everywhere, tba negro equality among the radicals i now "an accomplished fact" in Phi ladelphia. The escape of Murphy, tho Fcniai Head Centre, and his associates, fron the Cornwall jail, w;is the groat topi of conversation throughout Canad) during the past week. It is believe! that tho circumstance will encourag Fenianism, not only in Canada, bu in the United States. The Canadiai loan has beeu withdrawn from th market as a failure. Tho stearne seized recently at Montreal is th propeller Congress, owned in Detroit Tho owner has been unable, so far to recover his property. RAILROAD ACCIDENT.-TH KEE PEP SONS KILLED. -Wo aro pained t< state that an accident of a seri ou nature occurred on the North Carob na liai lroad, ou Thursday, by wind three persons were killed and ono in jared. It scorns that a collisioi took place between the gravel am freight trains, in the vicinity of Con cord, which resulted in the instan death v i three train hands-tw< white and ono colored. Mr. Lewis, engineer of the gravt train, bad his leg tuken off above th knee, and is otherwise severely hurt The fireman was badly scalded, an? another employee, name not known badly injured. It is reported that th body of Cooly-ono of the partie injured-was robbed of about $20 and parties aro now ou tho track o tho thief. ttwr Xfcaty. " The Boa. Alexander H. Stephens . has writbao u Ujier to a friend teJte* ? Orleans, which is published kr tit? . 27?tes, of that etty. The following is . tho elosing paragraph, rnftonung;-1? ! tho Philadelphia (conservative) Con vention: "I hope good will come from the* proceedings of that assemblage. God, in his mercy and wisdom, how? ever, only knows what is to be the future of this country, The destiny of States, as well as of individuals, is in His hands. Ail that we poor mor? tals can do is to discharge onr duty as well as we can from the lights be? fore us, and then bow submissively to His will." Mr. Stephens does not connsel a supine resignation to the Divine will, but tells the Southern men, at the same time, that they must discharge their duty as well as they can from thc lights beforo them. Those lights show us that the doom of the South is sealed, if the conservative elements of the North and West should be overwhelmed by the maddened masses which the radicals may be ablo to muster at tho coming elec? tion. They show us of the South the grim fate which awaits us in the future, viz: confiscation, dishonor and extermination. The mind can scarcely picture the horrors cf the scenes through which the people of tho South will be called to pass, should the enemies of the President and the Constitution prevail. It is well, then, that we should be counselled to do our whole duty. We can only do this by a cordial sup? port ot the policy enunciated by President Johnson and endorsed by the Convention to which Mr. Sto j phens was a delegate, lt will not do to sit with folded arma and ''hope I good will come from the proceedings of that assemblage." It will not do to go to work to pick out a Haw herc and another there, in the declaration of principles set forth by that body of conservative leading men, assem? bled in deliberative council from all sections of the country. It will not do to observe what some call "a dig? nified silence," when all the courage and manhood of the whole people are demanded to save that country from ruin and our own sunny South from the fate of St. Domingo. No It is our duty to do all wc can do ai this time, and that is to give Presi dent Johnson, and tho party whicl has rallied around him, the assurance that the people of the Southon States will support them in every wa> possible throughout the struggle fo: Constitutional liberty. South Caro lina, above all her Southern sisters should not remain silent. The New York Tribune's Washing ton .special has the following items Rumors of tho resignation of Gen O. O. Howard ns Commissioner o tho Freedmen's Bureau are agaii afloat. There is no truth whateve in tho sbitcmeut. (Jen. Howard is ? regular army ollicer, detailed to tak chiirgo of the freedmen's affairs, am cannot resign. He could be relieved but no application to bo relieved wil be made, as the President would con struc the wish into an acknowledg mont, on tho part of the General that lie was nuable to administer th affairs of the department, and Presi dent Johnson would claim this justi ncation for the dismissal from th army of a well-known gallant officer (Jen. Howard's friends insist that li shall not place himself in such a fais position, and Secretary Stanton plain ly and emphatically asserts that s< long as he is chief of the War De partment, Gen. Howard shall remaii Commissioner of the Bureau. -? - It is a curious historical fact tba the Philadelphia local oi?iciuls wer as much incensed against Presiden Jackson for his war upon the Unitet ? States bank, as are the authorities o that municipality to-day with Presi deutJohu.sou for his determinalioi to restore the Union in nil its iuteg rity. President Jackson was refus?e a reception when he visited that cit; in niuch the same manner as Presi dent Johnson wasrefnsed a reception For all that. Andrew Johnson will a sorely bo the moans of restoring th* Union in its integrity. TOWN ELECTION.-An election fo Intendant and Wardens of Union ville was held on Monday last, whicl resulteel as follows: Intendant - James B. Steedmnn. Wardens-D Gonelelock, II. L. Goss, Wm.

Garlington's an- * tecedeata must give him credit for ability ^ ina an earnest purpose to act in a public e&paotty for tn? pu&Hfrgnod. But, with all 1 doe deference for Into reputation, I ara ' obliged to thins it unfortunate that'his * talents are arrayed not only against the 1 decision of thc Conrl of Errors, but what appears to be tho trae and vital interests of tho wholo State. Maj. Leitner and Mr. Fair certainly ropresent tho majority of the people in their remarks upon tho same bib. Those of Gen. Q.'s way of thinking as sumo moro than can be granted. It is not truo that tho greater part of the people sro raising their voices, as debtors, for re? lief. Let the census of that class be taken exhaustively and impartially, and there is no doubt their number would bo found to be small, compared with these who ask no relief. This latter class, while they asl noi e, of .ourse would not decline any that might be extended by legislative aetion, but they will not be disappointed if none be granted. But these same axe weakened as to their energies by tho continual hammering, on the part <>f tho General Assembly, at schemes and plans for tho relief of debt? ors. Apply the principle to any other class of people, in any adverse circumstances, and sec how it works. Lei any class of persons bound morally and legally to do anything that may be very unpleasant, and even impossible, (at least so, in a given time,) and continually flatter thom with the hope that it will bi; done for them to? morrow or the next day, or next week, and see if yon do not demoralize their energy and their will. This is the inevitable re? sult of parleying with impossibilities. Lot the General Assembly come ont bold? ly and explicitly and tell the people ol South Carolina that nothing can be done by that body touching their individual and private contracts, except to leave the r< medy for enforcing them ju-t ao it is; hat, at the same time, appeal to the peo? ple to exorcise leniency at:.I forbearance towards each ot loa-. Action of this kind will tell. It will bring tito debtor and cre? ditor to realize thc stern fact that all ad? justment of their peenniarj matters must be effected, and effected without the inter? ference of the State -as they were enterer into voluntarily, on their part., and without the State's briner any party to the agree? ment. In my humble judgment, it is ruin? ous, not only t i tlu! future credit of tin State, but. Indefinitely, to tho energy ant recuperation, of her wrecked citizens, t< adopt any other course. If such decisive action wen: proclaime? Et once, compromises between crediton Rnd debtors would become innumerable How many Shylock* would be found in th< winde State, think you? Very few, snrelv Public opinion would create an ontsiui pressure that those disposed to act tin Fart of such would be unable to withstand venture the assertion that all this cr; about families being sohl ont of house am home, would have n > local habitation <? name, except in tho imagination of titos who now anticipate it. The indebtedness of tho citizens of th .State i-, without doubt, very great; bu relic-f must ciiine from a compromise bc tween creditors and debtors. Tito Stat may just as well, and willi cqnal ju.-tie* pass laws increasing tho debt of tho debtc as to pass those diminishing thc claim of th creditor. Not a single plan has been prr posed to relieve the burden of the debt? that does not increase that of the creditoi I Call it stay law, denominate it a aspens io j -f the courts, or what not, thc effect i i always and everywhere the same, ls tin j fair legislation? t pon what asamnptin j are all these ? ftbrts for relief based? Wh; upon that which represents, we will sa? one-third of the people us creditors rusi ing upon thc two-thirds who ure debtor; I and trying, or are just about, or intend, t ! grasp them with the rude clutches of tl. j law, and compel them to deliver up atom I all their remaining meagre assets. But is no such thing. The whole three-thirds ai j both creditors and debtors; and when sui ; a dash as the above is made, it will be ni thing moro nor less than a Kilkenny ca tight, with only one cat to do all the "tigh ing. The peoplo will be that cat. But r such bloody work will bc resorted to, if tl Legislature will come out boldly and ui equivocally, planting itself upon the almo unanimous decision of the Court of Error and impress thc people with the fact thi tho remedy they .-eek is in their own ham as private individuals, and not a.i formii anv part <>f the bodv politic. "D. li. MeCBLIGHT. -.-?*-? BltltillAM Yoi v.. AS A PKOPHET. Tho Valette, a sprightly Union pap< published at Salt Lake City-, undi the eyes of the Mormon leader, hi the following: ? "Sunday afternoon, as tho service I nt the Tabernacle were approachin a duse, there was a prospect of an ii mediate shower, which caused sever of tho females to leave. Tho Propli took a survey of the heavens, ar with due prophetic dignity, ai nounced that it, would not rain fi the space of thirty minutes, which i course re-assured all. But, in le than live minutes, oven before tl congregation was fairly outside tl walls, tho rain was pouring down i torrents, much to the disgust ar amazement of the 'faithful,' who i curred a serious loss in the millinej and dry goods lino." The Buffalo Christian Advocate, c< ited by a reverend, speaks thus: "If any man wants office bi enough to go in for the blood stai cd, God-disoboying, traitor-loviu treason-rewarding, loyalty-hating p bey ol' Andrew Johnson, he iswelcon to it. Ho pays for it at a dear rate The same paper closes an article c President Johnson's address to tl Committee of the Philadelphia Coi vention, by remarking: "That speech shows very clear what he has the disposition to n tempt, if he had the courage. It that which cost King Charles h head, and may yet make one tail? less. ' ' WHO WEB? WITH US?-The Free nan's Journal, (New York,) noticing i remark af a Son them paper respect Qg the fiftr N?rtberr^onrAl? lhat ?mainedasithftl to wa pri^ppHp of he Cons?utioft dudfe th* tejgoxs >f the war, gives us the following fcminfeoence: - In 1861, of the papers named, hose that were not applauding -'our rallan t volunteers" in the war for jutting negroes in control of thc south, were the Freeman's Journal md Neuis, the Dav Book, and the Courier des Etats Unis. Tne French Mlper, following the example of the Journal cf Commerce, subsided; when* Lincoln, Seward and Blair made wax on the liberty of the press. It changed editors and tone. The Free' man's Jo ip-na!, and Noes, and the Day Bool; remained suppressed. The editor of the Freemaris Journal made his arrangements for the worst, and commenced the issue of a smaller sheet-the Freeman's Appeal-which he thought he had secured the means of issuing and distributing, even if he were, as he had warning he would be, arrested, if he persevered. Despite the perjury of Mr. Montgomery Blair, in forbidding this "ma?able matter" going through the mails; and despite the recreancy of the express companies that refused to carry our paper because Seward forbade them; within two weeks, heavy bundles of the Freeman's Appeal were carried by the express companies. Noble hearted women were plonty, and in those days calico was cheap. Wrap? ped in cheap calico, and adlreased to female names, the express com? panies did their work for the Free man without meaning it! Bnt after the third issue, the editor was seized and carried to Fort Lafayette, by order of Scwnrd's "little bell.*' The following extract from "Town? send's Encyclopedia of the Great Rebellion" shows that Massachusetts in times past, as now, favored the policy of obstruction when it was de- j sired*to add a State to the Union: Tn January, 1611, the an*hor of ? this reminiscence was at Washington. ' The question of admission of Louisi- j ana, then a Territory, into the Union j as a State, was nuder consideration, j Mr. Poydras was the delegate to ; Congress. Ho was a Frenchman, and could not address the House in Eng? lish. Mr. Poindexter, the delegate from Mississippi, was assigned the duty of presenting and advocatingthe admission of Louisiana into the Union as a State. Josiah Quincy, member from Bos? ton, opposed the admission with great vehemence. He denounced the purchase of Louisiana and the gene? ral principles of the Jefferson and Madison Administrations, and said it might be necessary for Massachusetts to secede from the Union-"Amica? bly if we can, violently if we must." THE EFFECT OF PHILADELPHIA RA? DICALISM.-A correspondent writes from Baltimore as follows: The recent conduct of the radical officials upon the visit of thr> Presi? dent, to Philadelphia, is at this time receiving its just reward in the posi? tive refusal of Southern merchants to go there for supplies. Au instance was to-day furnished of this fact by the return to Baltimore of a number of merchants of South Carolina, rep? resenting a capital of 8100,000, who had intended to purchase there, but were deterred from doing so by the disgraceful and dastardly action of the municipal authorities whon the city was honored by the Chief Magis? trate. This threw quito a large share of cash into our merchants' hands, and it is to bo hoped they will im? prove such and similar circumstances. Thc Charlotte Democrat, speaking of the crops and prospect of bread, says: "We do not think the scarcity in this section will be anything like what it was feared it would bo a few weeks ago-the receut rains having done much good." The same paper says: "From Lincoln and Gaston Coun? ties we hear cheering reports about tho crops. A few localities in those Counties have suffered a little from drouth, but generally the prospect is fair; tho late rains in this section have done much good. "But we are sorry to hear of poor prospects in Union County. The whole of that County appears to have suffered from drouth." The Chattanooga Union gives an Recount of a negro who was attacked by the small pox, and was taken by his relatives to an abandoned fort, imprisoned and left to die. He escaped, and some days after his body was discovered by the presence of buzzards. Soon after another negro was similarly treated with like results. The Union states that some months ago the Freedmen's Bnreau collected one dollar from every negro adnlt in town to establish a hospital for their treatment when taken sick with small pox. What has become of it? Probably gone into the capacious pockets of the agent. Although the cotton worm luis made its appearance all over Texas, yet the cotton is so far advanced, that ii fine crop will yet be made. The Brazos Signal, 28th, says the recent rains, though very refreshing to ns, parched up as we have been by the beat, has still not been beneficial to sot ton. However, the prospect is .>etter t han could have been expect? ed. Picking has been commenced. Dbe corn crop is a good one.
