COLUMBIA. Saturday Morning, October 27.18?6. Tlic Two Policies. A Northern journal writes in the following sensible manner: "There is a time coming when the South, to bo really and truly inde? pendent of, and free .from, its oppres? sors, must bc commercially and finan? cially, severed from all connection with those who would humiliate and degrade her. She cannot eternally be a hewer of wood and a drawer of water for New England and the North. Wo know that, situated as she is at present, she is bound hand and foot to capital and capitalists here, but in thc nature of things-if she be but true to herself-that con? dition cannot last. The present must must be endured, but there are eman? cipation and independence looming up in the future, as the fruits of her own manufacturing system, the crea? tion of a Southern shipping interest, the fostering of tho mechanic arts by encouraging European emigration, the establishment of direct trade with foreign nations, the transaction of her own .brokerage and commission business, the encouragement of a wholesome native literature, and of all the other elements which go to constitute substantial independence, and enable a great people to live upon their own resources, and not simply upon thc forbearance of their ene? mies." This is the truth, and this Northern .writer appears to understand tho? roughly the position of the South and her only sure remedies for the evils she labors" under- truths which wc fear the Southern people aro too slow to understand and comprehend. For upwards of a third of a century, she has been a hewer of w ood and drawer of water for New En gin nd and the North; but as the writer above quoted says, she cannot be eternally so. Ho properly says fur? ther, if the South be true to herself this condition of things cannot last. That is the rub-if the South be true to herself. For many years before the war, she was not true to herself. She concentrated all her talent and energy on politics, instead of de? voting them to tho advancement ol her material interests. During all this time, Newr England and thc North, by all the legislation thej could devise, were heaping additional burthens upon her, anti throwing every conceivable obstacle in the waj of her financial and commercial indo pendence. It need nat be told how much more aggravated and oppres sive that legislation luis become since the close of the war. Tho North still clings to her oppressive policy, which, if anything eau accomplish the de? sirable end, must drive the South into a policy of financial and com? mercial independence. As regards our political union with the Northen: States, that is in the hands of om enemies; that bf our commercial in? dependence is in our own. The dis position now evinced on the part ol the North can never promote finan? cial and commercial union betweer the two sections. Let the South es tablish her own manufactures, create a shipping interest of her own, es tablish direct trade with foreign na tions, and tho work will be done, ant' the North will learn, too late, per haps, that conciliation is a wisei policy than oppression. A radical writes to tho Baltimore American, from Hagerstowu, Md. concerning a fight in that town be tween radicals and conservatives, am adds: "The sherill* has just appointed ; number of respectable men as depu ties, who will patrol the city am protect property through the night Were it not for this precaution, ] would not give much for the proper ty of some preachers of treason in ou: midst this night." That is, the radicals will burn dowi the house of any man who dares t< differ with them in opinion. Fin country to live in! ANOTHER TRIBUNE HORROR.-Th New York Tribune asserts that then is a conspiracy among tho "rebels o New Orleans" to massacre all th Union men on the 1st of November at midnight. SECRETARY OF WAU.-The Wash ington correspondent of tho Net York Herald says Stanton's (forth coming) resignation has been prccipi tated by the discovery lately mad that he has filled nearly all tho va ( mcies in thc regular army withou the knowledge or assent of'Mr. John son -a proceeding which, when dis covered, made Mr. Johnson vcr angry. The same correspondent sav that, "at the request of Gen. Grant who desires the hearty co-operatioi of the war office in re-organizing th army, Sherman will act as Secretar of War." THE AM KN DM EXT.-Tho Kow York J /'os/ commends the South, in a mild i and conciliatory manner, to accept tho constitutional amendment, The Now Orleans Times says, in reply lo 1 ! the Post: Wo will very frankly in? form tho kindly Postvrhy that amend? ment does not suit our views iii this quart< r, and why tho adoption of iL does not seem to afford us much pros? pect <d' additional comfort and ad? vantage. Ju the first place; tho peo? ple of the South, through tho whole of their history, have been a Cousti tution-loving people, and the.amend? ment in question having beeu pro? posed, as they conceive, by an ille? gally-organized Congress, is itself a wholly unconstitutional proceeding, to which no loyal people eau, outer taining a proper respect for the Con? stitution, consent, without doing vio? lence to their consciences. Second, even if tho 'amendment were pro? posed uiuhu- thu regular forms of the Constitution, (which it is not.) Con? gress hus giveu no assurance to tho Southern States of their restoration to the Union, inconsequence of .their ratification of it. Thirdly, the amendment disfranchises and renders ineligible to any office, State or Fede? ral, nearly tho entire population of j the Southern States. MK. DAVIS' Covs&xt--A Washing . tou letter io the New York World, on , Monday, says Charles O'Connor is j again in town. His arrival leads to I the natural inference that lie is on business connected with his client, Jefferson Davis, hut the learned I counsel will, doubtless, speedily as I certain that Judge Underwood does j not intend to hold a November terra ; of the United States District Court. -< ^ ? > IMMIGRATION.-The New Orleans \ Crescent has a long article upon the j subject of immigration, and rejects ] the idea of coolie labor. It says: j The introduction of a fresh subject of contention in the form of coolie j labor, v>ill not solve the problem. If I the African be enfranchised, the en j franchiseraient of the Asiatic woiild I soon follow, and the mongrel races will rule Lin tho fair regions of the South. To introduce the Asiatic, is to welcome into our midst, another enemy of the]{.white race. It is to bring another (?reek horse within the walls of- Troy. I The emancipated African already amongst us, Ave cannot control, either for the good of society at large or for his own benefit. He is the ward of tho General Government, thc pet of philanthropy and the subject of the Freedmen's Bureau. Wo must take ' him as he has been fashioned by his J new friends, with all his new preten I sions, with all his contempt of work ; and his aspirations for the ballot. He i might be made'a useful member of ! society, but his self-styled friends ! seem bent upon making him its I scourge. Our policy should be s<> ' shaped as to prevent such a misfor i tune; and we think that thc practical I solution of the problem consists in : inviting and in encouraging immigra I Mon-not the immigration of tho I coolie, or the African, or thc Indian, ! hut the immigration of white men. MR. SEWARD AND MK. STANTON' IN* : NEW YORK.--The. Journal of Com \ merer, which sustai?S?Jthe policy of ! the President as against the radicals, i has this to suv in reference to Sec : retai'ioslSewardjand Stanton: "If it were understood in this State : that to vote for the conservative poli I cy did not imply voting to retain Mr. ; Stanton and Mr. Seward in office, . controlling the home and foreign re , lations of the Government, it would add many thousands to the conserva? tive vote. There can be no settled I confidence among the Democrats in j Mr. Johnson's administration, as ; long as his Cabinet remains as now. j Mr. Seward's age, feebleness and per? sonal suffering, have turned away ! from him very much of the strong I feeling which existed two years ago; I but Mr. Stanton is thoroughly and j hopelessly condemned by the entire ; body of conservative men in the ! country; and, unless appearances are j very deceitful, he is no less unpopu? lar with the radicals. The latter do i not trust him, and the former have j no occasion to think of tru sting him. " Ax INCIDENT OF NEGBO SLAVERY. The New York Herald tells the fol ! lowing: "Among the passengers by the ! train to Baltimore, yesterday evening, I was a colored man, about forty years j of age, who, with Iris wife, had spent I a few months in New York. This j man was sold at tno block, in Galves? ton, sixteen years ago, and when thc I first blast of secession was sounded, ! all his fellow slaves escaped in squads I within a short time. Being repeatedly offered his ire*dom by the planter, he I persistently refused, determined to j share his master's fortunes; and it j was only when the final crash caine, j which bereavod tho planter . of his worldly substance, that the faithful Scipio was reluctantly thrown on the world. Ho lias relatives iu Balti I more." Tur: IUISH REPUBLIC.-The New York Evt 'ting Express says that move? ments have been made iu every State o? tiie Union by tried and killed organizers of the Stephens party, during tho past week, for the purpose of obtaining all the aid that can possibly he given by Irishmen, to meet the requirements for the coming straggle for independence. Officers had hoon detailed by tho commander to each State, through which they are now traveling for the last time previous to the commencing of the revolutions. Telegrams from nearly ail the States, on the 19th, an trounce tu??r success. Money, arms and ammunition are being subscribed with threat spirit. Tt i.? calculated that Mr. Stephens has secured up? wards of 10,000 stands of arms since his arrival in the United Stales, and that a. great portion of that number bas been shipped to Ireland in the Joost open manner. The great mass meeting about to be held at Jones' Wood, on Sunday, 28th instant, it is supposed, will be the last .held in. this country by.Ste? phens, until war commences. COTTON CROP PROSPECTS.-The cir cnlar of Brice & Co.. dated Now York, October 20, contains the following remarks upon the prospects of the cotton crop: "The weather, for-tho past week, lias been encouraging to planters, aud every effort is being made to save all that is left of tho ero}?. lu many sections) however, the freedmen have j been prostrate with fever, and the i working force thus seriously reduced, i From all sections, we hear the most I discouraging estimates of tho crop, Land the idea seems prevalent that no ' probable amount of good weather cnn I nenc?fprthjrep?ir the dam?gc^already '. done. "The lamine which is raging in I India will, of course, reduce thc cot . lon production of that country, and ! the best informed persons in Liver? pool think 1,500,000 bales, at least, i will lie required from the cotton ! States au amount impossible to give j them. If the crop turns out what it I is al present estimated -1.000,000 ! bales-not over 1,000,000 certainly ; could he exported. The season of j 1816 was precisely analagous to the ; present, and its effect cm thc crop j cannot fail to he remembered by many interested in the staple." EDIIENEGROES. Tho Followingpa ragraph from the Wilmington .Tournai \ will apply to other cities: We notice upon oar streets and : along the wharves numbers of idle j negroes, young, strong and healthy, j lounging about, with apparently no I thing to do. Black l?aferism is on tho increase. An old suit of second ? hand clothes and an occasional scrap of something to eat, is sufficient to ? set iu> a negro loafer, and thc noncJta \iance which li - struts and swells is ? quite refreshing. lt i.; from this class i that recruits come to swell the records \ of crime and to furnish work for our j public courts. Yet it is hut just io say that many ?d' the negroes are doing much better than was expected. Many of them are examples of sobrie? ty, industry and politeness. But very :oany have given way to idle? ness and dissipation, and are "going to thedogs" as rapidly as such a course can carry them. MARION ITEMS.-We clip tho follow? ing items from the Marion Crescent: There will be a meeting at this place on sale-day next, to adopt a plan to erect a cotton factory in this District. Wc are gratified to state that the freight on a hale of cotton from Flo? rence to Charleston has been reduced lo one dollar per bale. This will no doubt turn a large amount of that freight to Charleston. An American ci ?rrespondent wri tes, from Paris: Hair is not worn ibis season, the ! heads hoing smoothly sand-papered, varnished, and all the phrenological ; developments covered, numbered, la I holed, and illustrated with India ink. I This novel style causes much commo i tion among those whose bumps are j lacking, and many are the devices ' used to conceal the deficiency and I swell such humps as virtue, humility, i love of home, economy, and others I which are usually missing from a ? fashionable woman's head. Many j wear a neatly-fitting plaster, east with prominent traits strongly developed. A stranger is introduced, he sees some imo bum}):;, is pleased, and finally marries hor. During the honey? moon, he playfully hits his wife over the hoad with a stool, when off comes the plaster, and she stands forth un? masked. Many craniums are grained, in imitation of American woods; at any S"iec<: may bo seen maple, oak, beech, and not a few bass-wood heads, Ou? VIRGINIA.-The Alexandria Gazelle says that the interest and attention formerly gi ven to politics in Virginia, aro now turned to other, and at this time more important, mat tors-railroads, agricultural subjects, the labor question, mechanical indus? try and commercial advantages. The railroad meetings take the place of party conventions-and the ablest mon of the State discuss tho ques? tions before their meetings, instead of debating the policy of Govern? ment in its general administration of public affairs. ANOTHER DISCLOSURE.-Thc fact has already been presented that Pete Finnerty, "Southern loyalist,"' (and one of tho party of Southern cut? throats and Northern jail-birds that recently "swung around the circle,") was a "loyalist" quite well known to old residents and former sheriffs' officers in this city, lt appears that this specimen "Southern loyalist" is also not unknown to fame in the city of St. Louis. When the "South? ern loyalists" arrived in the latter city, some of Pete's old acquaint? ances, seeing his name on thc hotel register, thought proper to extend to him an invitation to tarry among them for some time. The invitation, says a St Louis paper: '"Set forth that the said Peter A. Finnerty did, sonni three or four years ago, obtain from John M. Fin? nerty $2,000 worth of liquors and cigars by fraudulent representations, by which representations said John M. was defrauded of his goods and properties to that amount. This invitation was placed in the hands of the indefatigable constable. Peter berger, who searched the city high and low-visited the Lindell, and went to the mass meeting at Lucas market, but without success." At another of these ''Southern loyalist" scalawags, whose name was iucribed on the hotel registers as "Judge Tucker, of Virginia,"' was recognized by some old acquaintances at M at toon, in this State, as a Yan? kee peddler of New Hampshire, where he dwelt and followed th'- oc? cupation of what an inoffending writer calls a "New England com mercial traveler," until after the wai was over. Ile then, on speculation bent, proceeded to Virginia, and by a touch of the radical magie wand, was transmuted to a "Southern loyalist," finch are the men wno claim tie right to dictate how the Southon States shall be "re-oonstructod." I Chicago Times. SCARCITY OF MONEYIN THE SOUTH All accounts from tin-Southern State: and cities agree in representing tba there is, in the whole of that region a great scarcity of money. Last au tnmn, tb'1 South was sending forwarc a large stock of cotton and a const derable quantity of tobacco, fo: which high prices were realized. 'Phi sum of ready money was itt part con verted into goods and merchandize for a supply' of which the South wa suffering inconvenience, and lit tl was left for the purpose of repairinj the damage sustained by plantations railroads; dwellings and machinery To put plantations in order for culti vation, ti") pay wages, to pnvchas subsistence and clothing for laborers required a largesumof money, whicl could not lu- obtained from an; source. Some capital was advanced b Northern men in aid of the cottoi culture, but not enough to bring un der cultivation even a. tithe of th nu??4 productive lands. Even of th sea island plantations, only a sma number have been worked at al!. Th j prospect is not very good for the nos year. This is the month when ai rangements should be made prepari tory to the cotton, rice and sugn culture for the next season. Put n funds come to the aid of the mulei taking from thc4 Northern States, ne from Europe. One reason is ths the Northern speculators are disaj pointed in the results of the pre set season The cotton tax, capriciou labor and bad seasons have discoui aged them. Some of them are infh enced also by the representations < the political arid pei'soual unfriendl ness of a portioi of the, native whit population.-National Intelligencer. WALL STREETON HORSEBACK.-W understand in the course! of the nes week there is to be a grand meetin of the amateur horsemen of Wa street, bulls and bears, and a gran hurdle race at .Jerome^Park, inwhic each horseman, riding bis ow .horse, will contend for the swee] stakes. There will probably lie i consequence some broken bom among the brokers, and some lam ducks and spread eagles, from a fa or two, among the iinaciers; bul th sport will be none the less to tli brilliant company expected on tli occasion. Tho arrangements ai designed for an elegant and beaut ful altair.- Nea- \rork lierait!. - TUNNELING THE Mississippi.- TL American Railway Times says: The project of bridging the "Fi thor of Waters" at St. Louis has nu with such strenuous objection 11 Hit has been abandoned, and the railwa companies whose roads centre then have conceived the idea of tnnnelin the river. Consent to construct tl work will bo asked of Congress, an as soon ns it is obtained, it is propose to begin the work.
