Why is it that our radical party send none but men in office, who | enjoy the luxuries which big salaries j can purchase, to address the meetings in Columbia and elsewhere? No man, perhaps, can come with j cleauer hands than Mr. Sawyer, j whose courteous and gentlemanly manners have gained him the respect oven of his political enemies. But oven Mr. Sawyer may insensibly have his mind clouded by the receipt of $4,000 a year! Evcu his patriotism and lovo of country may be stimu? lated by the fear of losing the Col lectorship of the Internal Revenue for tho Charleston District. No man knows how far his love of country may be influenced by selfish consi- ! derations. And when a man's bread and butter depends on the advocacy of a certain set of political opinions, we may reasonably infer that these opinions may be forced npou him by those hard task-mnsters at Washing? ton, who will permit no man to bo rewarded with office, unless he earns bis pay by working for the perpetua? tion of their power. With what a poor grace did Mr. Sawyer tell his sable audience, on Wednesday uight, that the Demo? cratic party was striving to get in, ? that thc leaders might parcel out . among themselves the good fat offices now enjoyed by the radicals. Such language might do very well for the disinterested colored Republicans, who have to stand buck and soe these Northern radicals gobbling up the paying places, and leaving them out iu tho cold, to be content with pa? triotism for their pay. Office, office, office, is the cry of these imported patriots. Even the Reverend Mr. Whittemore has come to the conclusion that he can serve his Lord and Master better in that great bear garden, the Congress of tho United States, than in preaching the Gospel to Darlington rebels. Of course, tho $5,000 a year salary as a member of Congress has nothing to do with tho reverend gentleman's chango of occupation. He doubtless believes there is as fine a field for the sonorous echoes of bis powerful voice in the Congress of tho United States as in the swamps of the Pe Dee. _ SENEX. SODDEN DEATH.-Coroner Whiting was called upon yesterday morning to hold an inquest on the body of Commodore George A. Prentiss, of the United States Navy, who died ia ibo South Carolina Railroad passen? ger cars, on his way from Augusta to this city. On entering the cars at An? gosta, Commodore Prentiss appeared in good health, and from statements of Conductor Duffey, there was no evi? dence of illness until the cars reached Windsor, some thirty miles from Augusta, where the deceased fell in a kind of fit, and died almost imme? diately. The'verdict of the jury was that while traveling on tho South Carolina Railroad, on tho night of the 8th instant, ho died of apoplexy. yCh'trles'un Mercury.
