Urin tug-Whither?
The Charleston News, in one of its
recent issues, has the following con?
cluding paragraph of a political ar?
ticle:
"Disagreeable as the prospect may
be, we aro forced to conclude that,
without any power iu us to control
the tide of events, wc are drifting
slowly back into thc Union on tho
basis' of tho constitutional amend?
ment, and that we will only cease to
occupy our present anomalous posi?
tion when wc are represented in Con?
gress by men wbo can take the test
oath, and when State oftices are
tilled by men who have never violated
au express oath of allegiance to the
United States."
Drifting into the Union on the con?
ditions proposed! Why, we would
ten thousand times rather that, the
State, should drift out into mid
ocean, as far from such a Union as
possible, with every true Carolinian
on board, and, like thc officers
and crew of tho Italian war steamer
Palaestro, go down in honor rather
than in disgrace.
No explanation, no excuse, can
palliate tho words above written. It
is a libel on the people of South Ca?
rolina to say that they have no power
to control the course of events-they
have the power to secure themselves
from dishonor and disgrace, by re?
jecting the abominable proposed
amendments. Any newspaper advo?
cating such a policy requires watch
ing._^ ^_
Equ i< allic Settlements.
Thc Georgia Southern Recorder
says that Judge Reese, at tho late
term of thc Hancock Court, defined
the construction of tho State ordi?
nance in reference to the equitable
adjustment of contracts made during
thc war, as follows:
The jury must confine themselves
to the "contract." Thc Convention
says contracts in thc war must b<
settled "equitably," and "eithe:
party may prove in evidence tin
value of the consideration at air
time;" but you must construe this ac
cording to the United States Cousti
tut ion, which forbids tho State t<
impair contracts; and the Georgi:
Convention is only the State. Si
you cannot as a j ur?' so constru
their Ordinance of November, 1865
as to impair the contracts of th
parties; that contract nivst go veri
you, not the Ordinance or any notio]
of yours about "equity." Tb
Ordinance only alters the rule o
evidence, and that merely for th<
purpose of showing by parole evi
dence, what sort of money the con
trading parties actually meant; an*
if they had no definite idea, then th
jury may say what sort of money wa
probably intended by the parties
The word "dollars"kin a contract pro
sumptively means "constitutional
dollars; but now parole proof is admis
sible, to show you that the partie
actually or probably meant "Con
federate" dollars. If so, then tb
jury must reduce the contract to gold
and add the discount of currency.
(TEN. SHERMAN ANO THE COMING RD
VOLUTION.-The announcement tba
Gen. Sherman will probably accept
placo in thc Cabinet has aroused
remarkable degree of attentio
throughout the country, and impart
new interest to his utterances. W(
therefore, again publish a sing?la
extract from the speech which li
some months since made to the sti
dents at Yale College. He said:
"Look at the flag as a Christia
object. Obey its dictates and folio
Its leaders. As you go out into lifi
you will find opportunities enoug
to stand up for it ; you may even ba*>
a chance to fight for it. I tell vc
that before- you pass from the stag
there will be fighting, in compariso
with which mine will be slight; and
have had enough."
The receipts from the internal rt
venue sources exclusively, up to tl
17th, amount to 8115,500,000, whit
is in excess of 81,000,000 per dier
from the beginning of the prese:
fiscal year, tho 1st of July. It is b
lieved that the income from tl
source will reach to nearly thc san
figures as thoso of last year, whi<
will be largely in excess of tl
amount estimated and required, lea
ing a heavy surplus to be appr
priated to tho liquidation of the n
tiona! debt.
The traveling delegation from t
Black-and-Tan Convention, known
Southern Loyalists, have issued,
are about to issue, an address to t
people of the United States, in whi
the recommendation is made that t
Governments of the Southern Stat
shall be abolished, and new ones (
ganized upon the basis of neg
suffrage.
?FFAIRS rs GBEENVEOUB.-The
Mountaineer, of thc 18th, says:
"Yesterday, the sale i>[ machinery,
&c, at tho State Works commenced.
There was not as largo a crowd of I
bidders present ns we t xpected to
see, and many of the articles offered
were knocked down at rather low
prices. There was some competition
for a 25-horse power engine, which
finally brought, about $1,545. Thc
b, *^very wisely reserving a por?
tion c ie machinery for usc in the
propc penitentiary. The sale will
continu to-day."
At a public meeting of the citizens
of the District, held on Monday, the
following resolutions were adopted:
Resolved, That we do respectfully
recommend that, thc Legislature of
this State be petitioned, through our
respective members, to call a conven?
tion at an early day, to take into con?
sideration the condition and wants of
thc -people, and, if practicable, to
provide some adequate and certain
means of relief ; and to rectify any
imperfections which experience and a j
sober second thought may show to be j
wroDg and unjust in principle, and j
injurious to the general welfare and !
and good of ali the citizens thereof.
Res'>lred. That we do further re?
commend that similar preliminary
meetings be held in this and other
Districts throughout this State, and
that a general meeting, to carry into
effect thc foregoing objects, be held
at each Court House on tho first
Monday in November next.
Resolved, That we heartily approve
of the efforts used by our Senator,
Hon. (r. F. Townes, to introduce
some measures of relief for thc peo?
ple, at the last meeting of the Legis?
lature, and in advocating the same.
TUE MASS MEETING.-The radical
Republican meeting at Cooper Insti?
tute last evening was very successful.
The hall was crowded till scarcely a
foot of standing room was left unoc?
cupied, and five or six thousand peo?
ple gathered about the outside stands.
The f principal addresses were deli?
vered by Hon. Hannibal Hamlin, ex
Vicc-Presidcnt, and Senator Wilson,
of Massachusetts. It was a notice?
able feature of the assemblage that
the more radical the utterances of
these thoroughly radical orators, the
greater the applause and enthusiasm
of the crowd. The sentiment uttered
by Mr. Sumner to thc effect that
while he recognized that the South?
ern States were as much in the Union
as ever for all purposes of taxation,
?fcc, they could not be represented in
Congress until Congress chose to
admit the men they sent, was received
with great cheering, and cries of
"keep them out." The speeches
were eloquent, facetious, and some?
times argumentative. Air. Hamlin's
exposition of what tko constitutional
amendment contemplated was re?
ceived with much favor. A more
enthusiastic .ssemblage has seldom
been called together for political pur?
poses. The object of the meeting
was the ratification of the nomina?
tions for State officers by the Syracuse
Convention.-Xeic York Times, 1G/1/.
THE IMPORTANT NEWS FROM Mi.xr
co.-The news from Mexico, partly
anticipated by our special despatches
of October 2, and published in the
Herald of October ll, is of a very
important character. Gen. Mejia, in
command of a French force, had ad?
vanced on Monterey and defeated the
main Liberal army, under Escobodo,
completely routing and pursuing it
toward Matamoras. The expectation
was that an engagement would ensue
at thc latter point, and it probably
took place on the 10th inst. The
force of Mejia was much larger than
that of the Liberal commander, and
the second battle doubtless resulted
like the first. The defeat of Esco- j
bedo and the occupation of Monterey
and Matamoras is an important gain
to the French, as it will give them
complete control of tho line of the
Kio Grande, from which Mejia was
lately driven, and also possession of
one of-the most important sea-ports
of the republic. The defeat of Eseo
bedo's army, the best of thc Liberal
forces, is a heavy reverse to the Libe?
ral cause. - Yew York Herald.
THE CONFEDERATE STEAMERS.-Thc
United States Government seems to
have gone into the zoological depart?
ment of natural history latch', sueing
io the English courts for the recovery
of thc Penguin, Owl, Lark, Wasp,
Badger, Fox and Ariel, supposed to
be Confederate steamers. Mr. Ben?
jamin appears as one of tho counsel
of the reputed owners, and the United
States Government ir, to give bail for
costs and damages before they can be
heard further. If I had any influ?
ence with Uncle Sam, i should ?ul
viso him to consider twice before lie
engages in an English law-suit. The
processes are interminable, and the
costs enormous. When Mr. Field
and thc Social Science Congress have
accomplished a radical reform of the
system, Uncle Sam may get hold of
the birds and beasts aforesaid.

THE MEXICAN QUESTION-THE ALA?
BAMA CLAIMS.-The Sun has tho fol?
lowing special despatch, elated Wash?
ington, October 17: "Importance is
manifested in some quarters concern?
ing the alleged inactivity of the State
Department in the treatment of th:
Mexican question, and demands ara
also made for the adjustment of tho
Alabama claims. I have high au?
thority for saying, that in a few days,
au official showing of tho policy of
the Government in the disposition of
these matters will be promulgated.
Mexican affairs are assuming a defi?

Bo.fl State or A ir? ii s in TrnnrHxrr.
The Nashville Union otnl Americatt, ot
tho lf.th, has the following unpleasant in?
formation:
Considerable excitement prevailed in tho
city, yesterday afternoon and last night,
by rumors of a contemplated outbreak by
the negroes. The first intimation the city
authorities had of tin.uteniplated vio?
lence, was through tho Executive Depart?
ment of tho State. Well founded rumors
had, it appears, readied the officials at tho
cap:'.!;!, that the negroes were in a ?tate of
intense excitement, in consequence of the
recent arrest of colored vagrants and their
confinement in the work-house. Letters
were also read in the churches (colored)
on Sunday night, that the negroes confined
in the work-house for vagrancy and other
offences, had been sent to Mississippi ami
sold into slavery.
Tlie scoundrels who would thus attempt,
by a foul libel on the city authorities, to
invite the negro to deeds of violence and
bloodshed, that would result in his certain
annihilation, deserve a severer punishment
than is known to the law.
The story thal the negroes were being
sent South and sold into slavery, is as
false as it is absurd.
Of the gang of laborers taken to Arkan?
sas by Mr. E. F. Chea th am, not ono went
against his will. They were under sentence
to serve out certain terms in the city pri?
son, and on the offer being made by Mr. C.
to pay them out, and give them employ?
ment picking cotton, at remunerative
wages, almost every negro in thc work?
house stepped forward and accepted tho
offer. No influences were brought to bear
upon them. They had their free choice to
go or Htay. As an evidence of this, quite
a number preferred remaining in the work?
house to working in the cot ton field, and
they are there yet, while their more sensi?
ble companions are probably now picking
cotton and making from ?.!<) to $50 per
mouth.
We learned from hi h authority, yester?
day, that when Gen. Lewis, Assistant Com- j
missioner of thc Freedmen's Bureau, heard
of the gang of laborers Mr. ('heat ham had
taken with him, expressed his entire satis?
faction in thc movement, and con idered it
as relieving the city of a bad class of citi?
zens. Prompt measures have been taken to
prevent any outbreak, and we have nt)
doubt but tfiat any attempt at riot will bo
speedily put down.
We would have our city authorities ferret
out the black-hearted assassins that have
been instrumental in inciting adisturbanco
among the negroes. If probed fco the bot?
tom, wc- believe a different object will lie
revealed than now appears upon the sur?
face.
TRANSPORTATION OF Pennie MONEYS.
The Secretary of the. Treasury has just
promulgated the following circular to col?
lectors, officers or agents of the Treasury
Department engaged either in the collec?
tion or transfer of moneys of the United
States:
TREASURY DEPARTMENT, Oct. 1, 1866.
A contract having been intered into be?
tween the Treasury Department and the
Adams Express Company for the trans?
portation over all thc lines of the said
Adams Express Company, and, through
them, of the American, United States,
Harnden's, Howard's, Hope, Cheney's,
Eastern and Southern Express Companies,
of all moneys under the control of the
Treasury Department, you are hereby di?
rected to employ said Companies for the
necessary transportation of all moneys of
the Treasury Department; said transpor?
tation to be made for the purposes of de-"
positing the money transported with tho
Treasurer, an Assistant Treasurer, or au?
thorized depositary of the United States
for transmitting the moneys collected on
account of internal revenue from deputy
collectors of internal revenue, to collectors
or United States depositaries, and for spe?
cial purpose.-:; and. under special circum?
stances, in accordance with instructions
i from the Department, all moneys trans?
mitted should consist of the sum of $1,000,
j or its multiples, as near as possible, and
I should lie sent by tho shortest practicable
routes. Tho expenses of transportation
I will be paid by the Department. The
officers sending or receiving moneys will
certify, in such form of vouchers as may?
be approved, to bills for the services ren?
dered, stating the sum transported, be?
tween what points and to what office the
moneys were sent, the date, and that the
services charged for were actually per?
formed. All officers or agents are cau?
tioned to carefully count and pack their
moneys to bc transported, securing them
m strong packages, sealed with their own
private seal in at least four places, and
with the amount, their own name and title,
and the name and title of tho consignee,
plainly marked on the wrapper, taking re?
ceipts from tho express companies for all
sums transmitted. H. MCCULLOCH.

THE DATE OF THE NEGRO PERIOD.-The
Cincinnati Enquirer, of last Saturday, says:
Tho dato of tho negro equality period in
tho Northern States may he fixed at Octo?
ber 9, 18(50. In Ohio, tho negroes were
allowed to vote, without distinction of co?
lor, at all polls-outside of a few Counties
-where radical judges officiated. It was
the same in Indiana and Pennsylvania.
One correspondent writes us:
XENIA, October 9.-Every negro voted
to-day that offered his ballot.
CEDARVILLE, Greene Co., Ohio.-Forty
five full-blown blacks voted at this pre?
cinct to-day. The judges took their votes,
declaring that under the civil rights hill
they were as well entitled to votes as tho
whites.
RICHMOND, Ind., October 9.-The judges
here allow full-blooded negroes to voto the
samo as whites,.and jut ify themselves
under the civil rights bill.
Tho Enquirer adds: We have no doubt
that throughout Ohio am. Indiana, whore
there were radical judges of olection, with
raro exceptions, negroes of all colors were
allowed to vote.
We cannot say that we object. Tho po?
pular will must be carried out. The people
of Ohio, Indiana and Pennsylvania believe
tho black as much entitled to suffrage as
themselves; to bo jurymen as themselves;
Judges, Governors, Congressmen, Sena?
tors as themselves; they have the right to
say so, and enforce it. We submit to tho
popular will, that considers blacks as good
as whites, socially and politically. We
don't believe so, and never will; but poli?
tically, we submit to the decision ot die
ballot-boxes of October 9, 1866. Negro
suffrage triumphs! It is hardly worth
while, to submit tho question directly to
th J people of Ohio.
