. i.. ' ' * ' '.'?OU*. V ? . i < ? i , ; ; - : , TtjEilay ?lorniug, Nov. 12, 1867.' U(*>a?U<tn-Vitality.' An English writer, a Mr. Buckle, ?omniencedn work on titled tte "His? tory o? Giyi?izatiou of England," iu which ho demonstrates, by citing historical examples, that re-action . inevitably follows excess. Speaking of the .condition of .Scotlaud io the seventeenth and eighteenth centu? ries, Mr. Buoklo advances Ute follow? ing views, which tho history of the world has almost invariably proven tobeoorreot: ? "In the progress of misrule and injustice, while things seem to be at their worst, a great re-action is always ?)prf?*~ ring. And the explanation of To-aotion ia to be found in that vast ?nd pregnant prinoiple on which I . have often insisted, but which our common historians aro unable to understand-namely, that a bad Go? vernment, oppressive laws, or laws badly administered, aro indeed ex? tremely injurious at the time, but can produce no permanent mischief; in other words, they moy barm a 'country, but can never ruin it. As long as the oppressed people are sound, there is life, and where there is life there will be re-action. In auch case, tyranny provokes rebel lion, and despotism causes freedom. But if the oppressed people are untrue to themselves, all hope is gone and the nation perishes." The recent extraordinary political rc-action in the Slates of the North and Wost dhow that tho masses of the people in those seotions are still trae to the principles upon which this ?Government was founded, and that they are aroused to the dangers ?which threaten thoir country. We believe now that restoration and Union will, ere long, bo accom? plished, and that, under tho old Hag o? the Union, the nation will tak< its place os the first among .Lo mosl .powerful of the States of the old .world. The tide of re-nction will nol go backwards, aud the whole people .of both North and South will bene ?heir energies to devolop the mighty .resources of this couutry, and re united under the flag of the Union ?ind standing by the Constitution will steadily progres? to that great ai ess which it is theiu>duty, right ant privilege to uttaiu to. In this work tho people of tho South, afflicted an< impoverished as they havo been, wil ?bo as true aud faithful as those of an; -other section of the couutry. WHAT TH?Y TI?ACH.-The lesson t lie learned from these recent election -is easy and plain. It means that th peoplo condemn the military recoc struction laws, the tenure of offlc bill, and all the violent coercive mer sures of the Inst uud preseut Cor gross, and declare that all such legi; lat ion ehall bc swept away. It mean the repudiation of both tho Coppei head aud Jacobiu factions, and determination to take a new depai .turo with new meu and a new line c ?policy. It moans that while th loyal men of thc North demand th full consummation of the freedom t the negro race, and favor their ei franchisee eat under Stato laws, wit av property qualification, as in tl: Northern State?, they also denian the instant abolitiou of militai governments in tho Southern Di tricts, the generous treatment of tl ?white 'citizens of the South, ai their speedy restoration lo their lo rights, lt meaus a reform in o . whole financial system, aud a redu rion os the national expenditures ai taxation. -? m ? ? G?NERAI. GRANT.-The New Yo Times concludes an article on t Presidency, with the following pai .graph: Gen. Grant's nomination, whi wo regard ns virtually made alrcati will consolidate and harmonize t Republican party, first by ending personal strife, all contest and col sion among aspirants for tho Pre dency, and next by confining its i tion to tho essential principles a policy which the tvolfiirn of tho rot try requires. And his election v put an end to tho war of parties n of factions, by which peace has bc repelled and the restoration of t Union discouraged and delayed. - Tho New York Commercial Aile User, Thurlow Weed's paper, thrc up tho sponge. It says: "Tho ra cal party is beaten. They have gi on, from year to year, choapeuii and dwarfing, and corrupting, ni their splendid political inheritai hos been whoiiy squandered, and Republican party now goes ' ii bankruptcy." ., .?_ RKM?VAX utf COTTON UNDKB BILLS OF LiA?iNO.~The following regula^ tiona iu relation to the removal o? cot lon lia vu boen issued by the In? tem td Revenue Department: "Under seotion -? of tho Aot of July 13,18G6, cotton moy bo removod from the district in which it has beei produced to any one other district, without pro-payment of Ihe tax, uuder boud ur other seourity, to be' presorihed by tbe Commissioner of internal Revenue, Bubjeot to tho approval ot the Scoretnry of tho Treasury. "It having been found by expe? rience that tho furuisbiugof increased facilities for the removal of cotton Without pre-payment of tax is con? sistent with increased seourity to tho Treasury, it is determined to substi? tute shipments to revenue officers under billa of lading for the bonds i._?.#.. . i IIUICVU1U10 ICU 1(11 ou. "Accordingly, the owner or other holder of cotton, which he desires to remove from the district of produc? tion to another district without pre? payment of the tax, will hereafter bo required to obtain a bill of lading in duplicate, signed by a well-known, regularly established and responsible transportation company, consigning the cotton to tho collector of the dis? trict of destination, for delivery to the factor or agent of tho owner, after payment of the tax. "Tho transportation company signing such bills of lading will be required to furnish to tho assessor of tho district in which is tho receiving port or point of destination, imme? diately after arrival, a copy of their manifest or way bill, so far us it relates to any cotton transported by thom, and stating thoroin whether the cotton is class A, B or C, as here? inbefore required. "Each assessor will keep nu ac? count of all cotton ontered upon tile j copies of manifests and way lulls HO j furnished to him. "Should any transportation com? pany refuse or neglect to furnish the j assessor with a copy of manifest or way bill as above required, the as? sessor will immediately notify all tho assessors on the lino ot such trans? portation company ol such neglect or refusal; and thereafter no permit for tho transportation of cotton by snob company will be granted by any assessor, without permission to do so being obtained from tho Commis? sioner of Internal Revenue." -.?-??-? TnE EFFECT IN NEW YOKK.-Tho New York correspondent of the Phi? ladelphia. Ledger writes: "The World and /.> tiing Express offices have tho national colors dis? played, nud altogether things there and thereabouts are nothing, if not jolly. Tho Republicans are disposed to take their bad fortune with as much philosophy as they can muster. .Let the Democrats laugh,' say they, 'it is so long since the poor fellows have had an opportunity to enjoy themselves in that way that it would be a pity to spoil their fun,' Are. Down in Wall street, the talk for the moment turns moro on 'majorities' than Harlem or Michigan Central. The Democracy exultingly point to the fact that gold is down and bonds up, as a practical proof of the favor* ablo influences tho success of their principles and their policy at the polls npon tho material interests of tho country; but, of course, tho Re? publicans don't see it in that light. "There is reason to believe that one of thc very first results of tho defeut of tho Republicans in this State will bo a serious split in their organization. Raymond, Weed and Bryant, to-day, all declare that the party must become conservativo if it expects the support of the people in future, and that to that end it must not hesitate, if need be, to cut loose from tho Greeleys, tho Wendell Phil Ii pses and the Tiltons altogether. They insist upon it, also, that Con? gress shall drop tho impeachment business and pay less dofereneo to tho views and opinions of Mr. Thad? deus Steveus. "Tho Greeleyites, on tho other hand, contend that tho only salva? tion of tho party lies in a moro radi? cal direction than tho ono which it is now pursuing; also, it was tho milk and-water conservatism of Raymond, Weed & Co. that produced the great disasters of yesterday. Tho motto of the class still is no concession, no compromise and no surrender." THE CONVENTION ADDBESS.-Tho Charleston Mercury says of this able document: This address constitutes all the business dono by tho Convention, lt ?8^ a capital address, sound in doc? trino, and excellent in tone and tem? per. Wo think the calling of tho Convention was a mistake; but being assembled, if wo had been a member of tho Convention, wo wonld have voted for tho address. We look upon it as a most admirable expedient for escaping from an erroneous position. Tho Convention was right to do no more, and it could hardly do less. The London Times predicts that should Napoleon fail to bring about a ^enoral conference of tho European powers, to settle tho Roman question; ho will abandon the defence of tho temporal power of the Pope, and leave Italy freo to decide upon the future position of Rome. S ABC A s M. -Th e following truthful sarcasm on the past and futuro repre? sentation of the South, is from tho New York Ber aid : % Who is there but feels proud of the ^history of the country, and of tho array of intellect in its annals, when he runs over the names of tho men that in the past represented only the South in the councils of the na? tion-Jefferson, Madison, Randolph, Lowndes, Pincknoy, Hayne, Cal? houn? Ono might run the list to noblo length, and montion only men who hud earned world-wide fame, and were worthy of it. But if one indulges these remembrances, he is likely to be called a Kip Vau Winkle, it is such au age of progress, nnd we have so changed all that. What are tho glorious mimes that are likely to be associated with South? ern representation in tho future? Onn?d?v, Coffee and Sambo! EUeck Johnson, Pompey Smith, Ciesar Jones and Cicoroea, with every possi? ble addition, aro to be tho futuro Senators, speakers and eloquent orators from States whoso annals are splendid with tho names of the found? ers of freedom. No wonder the Re? publican party vaunts its achieve? ments, when it can show results as great ns this! THE YELLOW FEVER IN NEW OIS I.EANS.-Tho following is au extract from a letter written by a gentleman who has resided for thirty-five years in New Orleans: "Tho fever that has desolated this city, aud tho South-western part of tho State this season, was tho most terrific disease I have ever witnessed in the simpo of an epidemic. Tho cholera of 1832 was more sudden in its effects, but no fever hos visited New Orleans for tho past forty-fivo yours comparable to it. Creoles who were boru in the State, and who had never been ont of it, including whites, mu? lattoes or blacks, from five to thirty five years of age, huvo been carried off in attacks that last only forty eight or seventy-two hours." ELOPEMENT EXTRAORDINARY -A Xr.ono RUNS AWAY WITH A WHITE MAN'S WIFE.-The evil effects nf miscegenation were made painfully public yesterday, by the elopement of a white married ?vornan with a negro niau. This mau had been an inmate of tho house for sonic time, and having been treated ns a man ami a brother, had succeeded in alienat? ing the affections of the woman from ber liege lord to such an extent that, during his temporary nbseuce in Summerville, she gathered np his valuables, and with her paramour took the train for New York. Tho bereaved husband returned lo find bis house empty, the birds flown and his inoncv, tith; deeds, watches, Ac., minus. Instead of tearing his hair and acting in a romantic manner, ho quietly notified the detectives, and had tho satisfaction <>f learning that <.:; reaching Wilmington, thc precious pair were assigned quarters in sepa? rate cells.- Charleston News, ll'//. NKOROES CARRYING WEAPONS. Saturday evening, as the night train from Columbia reached the Port Mofle Station, a very largo number of negroes was on the platform to escort and see safe ou board a trio of brown mulattoes, who had been haranguing a large, crowd of negroes in that vicinity during tho day. In addition to this large escort, there was a special escort of two stalwart blacks, armed with a pair of bran new muskets. The armed negroes got into the cars with their charge, aud all took scats in the ladies' ear. Shortly afterwards the conductor told the party that the forward car was appropriated for tho use of color? ed people, upon which tho two self appointed sentinels moved in that direction. Tho whole party got out at Orangeburg, where a mass meet? ing of tho blacks was to have been addressed by the trio yesterday. [ Charleston Mere ti t if. - -? . - ANOTHER MURDER.-Tho steamer St. Helena, Captain Royle, arrived from Rockville last evening, bringing tho murdered body ?if Peter Lock? wood, a young aud well-behaved colored man of this city, nged about twenty-four or twenty-live. Peter weut to Rockville a day or two ago, where he was to have been married yesterday. On Saturday night, he and several of bis colored friends had a dancing part}', which broke up quietly nt 1 o'clock. Peter then re? tired to a small room adjoining the kitchen of Ur. Daniel J. Townsend, and between that hour and ? o'clock yesterdny morning, be was most bru? tally murdered, his head being clove in two with a hatchet. [Charleston Mercury, Wth. THE COST OF WAR IN TI HES OF PEACE.-Among tho appropriations made at the second session of the Thirty-ninth Congress, we notico that those made for war purposes, in? cluding pensions, military academy, and Indian department, somewhat exceed sixty millions of dollars. These are tho appropriations made at tho second session only. The formidable amount of these figures will give ns reputation as a warliko people. No wonder our taxes arc complained of.

The Ladies' Memorial Association of Mnnassas appeal to yon to aid them in collecting ami suitably interring! tho roiunius of the gallant mon who fell fighting-gloriously for you and ?ottrs on this ever memorable tit-id. 'he victories gained have? neut a thrill of joy through every Southern lieurt and home; but Btill the bones' of those who gave their lives to gain them lie uncared for and unnoticed. Our immediate section was so devas? tated by the war that we ?re notable, unaided, to perform the work before us. A site has been donated for the Manassas Cemetery, and we proposo to gather together tho remain* of all who fell in this region. We ask every one who lost a friend here not only to render us all the aid possible, but lo communicate with the association and give all tho information they can about where their friends tire buried, their brigade, regiment, company, tea. We do not deem it necessary to make a stirring or eloquent appeal to the friends of tlx; bravo boys whose] bones now whiten tho "plains of Mantissas." Tho fact that numbers from every County in thu South fell here, should bo enough to make every ono give his mite in aid of so noble a work on so proud a field. Mus. SABA E. FEWELL, President. POTJITICAII.-Among the numerous rumors iu thc city, is one that Chap? lain French aud a leading politician of tho Republican party, recently arrived from Washington, have made application to General Cauby to post? pone the election for a Stat?! Conven? tion. They give as a reason that a number of prominent Republican members of tho House of Represen? tatives have agreed to so modify the Recoustiuction Acta as to include much larger proportion of the whites of the South among the enfranchised classes. Many of the radicals at the North have become alarmed at the recent elections, and are now anxious to propose or adopt more conciliatory j measures. Having, they say, yielded at the last, session to the views of | Thad. Stevens, Sumner and others, leaders, and tho election having gone against them, they now demand that Stevens, Sumner and others shall co? operate with tho more moderate win; of thc party. Tt is also rumored that Gen. Cirant, if rm. as thc Republican candidate for President of thc United States, will do so only upon a modified plat? form. One great causo of tho un? popularity of negro au?lVago at the North, was saul to bo thc disposition evinced by thc blacks at Hu* South to thrust everywhere their own color forward, both for local ami Congres? sional offices. This course, it was feared by many lending Republicans, would seriously injure, if not totally defeat their party. We only give these rumors as some of the OH dits of tli?- day.-Charleston Courier. MARYLAND TO TUT: FHONT.-The State which has been most crushed and manipulated, in order that it might, bu Republicnnized, lins fairly won the right to carry the foremost banner of the Democracy.
