COLUMBIA. Sunday Morning, June Sound Doctrine? Defended py?y**'*??-~ qm?te Means-Shall lt lie jgW?MCc fi?rt?? .?....>>-. In DelJnw's Review for May, arti? cle 1 ie entitled "EXODUS." This articlo contains the soundest views that wo havo recently come ?or?se on the subject of the defects of South? ern policy in the past, i Tho author AdEiU?.ih?i.iho views o? our South? ern statesmen as to tho principles of government wero correct-that tho creed of States' rights was correct that the Southern view bf the powers of the General Government was right; but that the South, neverthe? less, made one great blunder, and it was this-that thc Southern leaders re? lied on defending thc rights of ?ieir section simply by exhibiting their title. They omitted to throw up around State rights tho solid muniments of wealth, numbers and industrial de? velopment. They failed to maintain political right by physical power. And this it was that, the writer thinks, prodnced the oauses that led to Southern political and industrial, sub? jagntiuu. If, now, this bo the loss?b that the jpast teaches, does not onr dt?ty id the futuro occur readily to the mind? Observing , the errors of the past, let us grasp the means of our future safety and redemption. In the future, let us impress upon the country our political creeds by works rather than by words. Let the logic of ads take the place of the logic of books. "Let practice take the placo of mere theory. Let us resort to all the modes of mixed industry. Let us develop agriculture, commerce and manufactures. Let us ourselves work, and no longer roly too entirely upon the labor of the negro. Let us recover our rights and control of things, not by argument and evi? dence, but by material agencies. Let .us invite capital, and labor to our sec? tion. * Lot us secure for ourselves immigrant number, immigrant wealth, and immigrant votes. This is the policy to out the Gordian knot of our political complications. And may Heaven grant to the South an Alexander wise enough and influen? tial enough to uso tho sword of suoh a policy. The Soothern Delegates to the De? mocratic Convention; We have suggested that it is be? coming in our Southern delegates to the Democratic Convontion to bo modest, moderate and judicious in the advocacy of their claims. But, at the same time, it does seem to us that they should seek to exert a legiti? mate influence iu tho counsels of that national body, and should, with dignity and firmness, maintain what may be regarded conducive to tho interests of the people and the coun? try which they represent. Let their voice be heard there. If that voice be wise, and moderate, and reasona? ble in its utterances, it can but do good to the common cause. Nor should delegates fail to appreciate the dignity and strength of their position. They will roprosont a white constituency nearly 10,000, 000 strong, and. to bo counted upou as almost a undJb for tho Democracy. They will '?ft??d in that Convention the representatives of proscribed States, but they will bo nevertheless the peers of their Northern brothers of the Domocracy. As tho Washing? ton Intelligencer says: "An imperilled people demand that tho Southern delegates shall do their duty to the wholo land by taking such part in public affairs as it is in their power to assume." As for ourselves, we feel that the Southern delegates will do this wisely and judiciously. Gen. Hampton and Gen. Forrest will bo there, and they will surprise the country by showing to it that they fully appreciate the obligations of the hour-that they know full well that "peace hath ber victories no less renowned than war;" and that among the victories of peace aro now to be reckoned that patriotism which lays prejudice upon tho altar pf country, and that charity whioh covers with its mantlo tho bitter memories of the dead past. ; ' We loara that the delegation to the Democratic Convention' from tho Fourth Congressional District has been cona pie tod by the. appointment of T, Stob? Farrow, Esq., and Moj'. T.W Woodward, alternate. ** .???mi?n?- .'*F!T"in?!?!!LiJL.'-^^^rcJ ?'The Sword of the Lord ?ad of Old'con." It has been well said, that "the Brord pfjjfee I*fefra^f Cmeo? is graven with many a pious motto, but no other weapon has strnck so many Jgol bljSwc^." ^ Jr ' jk~ Jk ' For one to identify himself with the cause of Divin? justice is a noble thing. This ennobles bia conduct, and insures the elements of suooess. But to identify the cause of Divine justice with ourselves, this is a di flor? ?n t matter. . Thia leads ouo to disre? gard: all laws, human and Divine, that stand in the way of his ambi? tion. This is the grand error that all the prominent fanatics of the world have made. Imagining that they wielded "the sword of the Lord and of Gideon," how many of the world's conquerors have.-trampled on tho command m ont s of Heaven, and waded to thrones through seas of human gore. Truly, this has been one of the orowned errors of humanity. And yet this is the grand mistake that radicalism, in its honest forms, is now making both North and South. Tako the honest Republican North. He imagines that the great cause of Divine progress demands his creed. But let him ask himself th? question, if he does not "identify himself with the cause of Divine justice," and thus prepare to march on to tho accomplishment of his aims and ends, without regard to tho claims of that very justice that ho erroneously invokes ? Take the misguided negro mau, who houestly thinks that Heaven approves of his insane and futile dreams, unreasonable and unsub? stantial though others deem them. Let him reflect, if he has not identi? fied himself "with the cause of Divine justice," instead of identifying the "cause of Divino justice" with him? self. In tho case of both the honest Republican North, and the honest negro South, it would bo well for each to remember the proposition with which we began this article, viz: "Tho sword of the Lord and of Gideon is graven with many a pious motto, bnt no other weapon has struck so many foul blows." SOLOMON'S TEMPLE EXHUMED. The London Times publishes an inte? resting letter in regard to the discove? ries at Jerusalem, from which wo select tho following: "Tho colossal foundations of the temple walls, which are 'stones of ten cubits and. .-stones of eight cubits, ' laid by Solomon or his successors on the throne, are now being laid bare at tho enormous depth of nine? ty feet or more below the present surface. The bridge that once span? ned the ravine between the palace of Zion and the temple on Moriah is now proved to have been upwards of 150 feet high. If this be, as it seems, the ascent to the House of tho Loni which Solomon showod to the Queen of Sheba, we oanuot wonder that on seeing it there was no Bpirit in her. The pinnaole of the temple on which the tempter placed the Saviour has just been uncovered to the base, and is found still to havo an elevation of 136 feet. The statement of Jo? sephus is, therefore, no exaggeration. If any one looked from tho battle? ment into the valley he would bc giddy, whilo his sightcouldnot reach to such an immense depth. Sections of the ancient wall of Ophel have been exhumed, showing that as Jo soph says, it was joined to tho South? east anglo of tho templo. Aequo ducte, cisterns, rpck-howu channel* and passages have also been discovereel within and around the harem, throw ing light on the buildings, tho arrange ments and tho 'services in tho Tom pie. The great work of a complote exploration of ancient Jerusalem ii thus . fairly and auspiciously com mouced. The opportune visit of the Sultan and Grand Visier to tbi country, and- th?' representation! made to tho latter by . the,- Arqli Bishop of. York, followed up as the] have been by tho energy! the . wis dom, and the tact of Lieut. Warrei and his admirable staff, have smooth ed down Moslem prejudice, re moved local opposition, and thu brought about opportunities for ex oavation and exploration, such a never occurred before; and besides large numbers of Arab laborers hav boen trained to the work, and ar eager to be employed; and the exao points of successful exploration ar now well known." RECONSTRUCTION EXPENSES.-Fron a communication laid before Con gress by the Paymaster-General o I the United States, we learn that Gen Oanby estimates that $127,898.25 wi! havo to be appropriated to meet th deficiency in the fund for cxecatin, the reconstruction laws during th past year in this Military District and 824,000 for carrying ou hi operations next year. Th? Suffrage Quest lou-A. Democrat View. When the Times urged upon tl Democracy tho policy of beating the Jacobins to death with thoir own club, there was a great commotion in the ? Democratic press. Had the Southern States then come promptly forward and said to their negroes, "We will make suffrage impartial, disfranchising none who are now voters/' . no one doubts that the Southern whites could, and would, have controlled the blacks. An expression, by the Democratic National Con .cation ? in favor I of impartial-not universal-suffrage and general amnesty, occupied with a declaration that it is the privilege of each State to decide for itself who shall be electors, would not lose the party in the North a Bingle vote, and would divide the negro party in tho South. Suppose the Convention should pass a resolution not mate? rially different from the subjoined: Resolved, That the question of suffrage is one exclusively within the jurisdiction of the several States comprising the American Union; and that the action of Congress in attempting its regulation in the Southern States, through thc agency of military despotism, is a gross and criminal . usurpation of power, and subversive of every principle of our Qovernment; that citizens who help to maintain the Government, and are obedient to its laws, should possess an equality of civil rights and political privileges; and this princi? ple is applicable to all sections of the Union; and the assertion that it should be operative in oue section and inoperative in another, is po? litical charlatanry and absurdly iu co asisten ty. Understanding, of course, that such a declaration left tho party in each State free to act on tho question Of suf? frage as it might deem them proper, it would not detract au iota from the Democratic strength in the North, and would give the party most of the Southern States. Not only the prosperity of the latter, but of the nation, is largely dependent on tho ability of the whites to control the blacks. If the white men of the South cnn tell how they eau obtain control of their State Governments without dividing tho negro vote, the Democracy of the North will be well pleased to hear the recital. If tho Southern whites can say how the things called State Governments in the South oau be extinguished with a Jacobin majority in tho Se? nate, the Democratic National Con? vention will, probably, be glad to know. Tho Jacobin party has presented us with certain revolting facts, re? sulting from all that is meanest, and worst, and most loathsome in legisla? tion. That they are revolting does not affect the necessity of meeting and dealing with them, because they directly involve the interests of the party and the country. Shall they be made instruments to destroy the rotten party responsible for their existence?-Chicago Times, Juno 20. A WIFE POISONED.-Charles Tuck? er, alias Mason, was lately tried at Niagara, New York, and sentenced to be hung iu August next, for poisoning his wife. About a year ago, ho procured a polioy for $5,000 and covering tho lives of him? self and wife, the survivor to have tho money in case of the death of either party. She died in September, after a short and violent illness, Mason's conduct, when he went to collect the insurance money, excited suspioion, and the body of his wife was disin? terred, and found to contain poison. Hence his trial and conviction. The Nowbern (N. C.) Journal of Commerce says: "We learn that while some' little negro boys were swim? ming in Scott's Creek, near James City settlement, that an alligator came along that way and seized upon oue of them. Larger persons, at? tracted by his companions' cries for help, ran down to his assistance; but boforo they arrived, the body had boon entirely imten up. This will probably be a warning to others to attend Sabbath schools, instead of going swimming on Sunday after? noons." A HEDBEW CONVENTION.-On the 19ch of July next, tho Bnai Brith (Brothers Bound Together) will hold a general convention in the city of New York, for the purpose of revis? ing tho constitution of the order, and transacting such other business as may be brought before that body. Thia association is governed by laws aud ceremonies somewhat similar to those of Masonry-none but Hebrews who adhere strictly to tho Hebrew faith are admitted to this order. FATAL ACCIDENT.-We learn that a caso of accidental shooting occurred at the plantation of Mr, J, T. K. Belk, a few miles above here, on Saturday last. Solomon Barnes and George Mollwain, both colored, it ? appears were out hunting, and George, in attempting to shoot a par? tridge in a thicket, lodged the con? tents of his gun in the back of Solo? mon's head, who died almost in? stantly.-Lancaster Ledger. -?-?V A French soldier has just been sentenood to be Bhot for having de? serted to the Russian army during the Crimean war, thirteen years.ago. A tiger recently escaped in the city of Antwerp, causing some considera? ble commotion to the phlegmatic Flemings, and fatally injuring one man, besides killing a horseJfAfter some chasing, he was driven/fnto an alley and shot It was oof of the finest specimens of the Bengal tiger in Europe, and made its escape dar? ing its shipment to London. If towns spring up like mush? rooms ou the hue of the Paoifio Bail road, they decay as quickip. Jules burg, which, with 5,000 inhabitants ?di locked forward io a prospe? rous future, is now reduced to a population of twenty, living in three shanties and an equal number of teats. A Mississippi newspaper thus graphically describes the oratory of a political opponent: "fie ranted, raved, fumigated and scala wagged, mongreled and kangarooded the Re? publican party, but accomplished nothing." Tho strangely arranged ribbons on the new bonnets of the queens of the Parisian demi monde, which, in the course of a few months, will be worn by all the fashionable ladies on earth, are called "don't fall in love with me, youngman." Sound advice. Mr. Blakely, inventor of the gun bearing his name, and his wife are among the victims of yellow fever in Lima, Peru. Tn the middlo of lost month the daily mortality was be? tween 200 and 300, and nearly 3,000 were in thc hospitals. An Englishman, living near Flo? rence, has his study walled and floored with zinc aud filled with water, in which he writos and reads in the dog days, his desk and books being placed just above high water mark. Two young men named Williams, wore brutually murdered by a colored man, in Irwin County, Georgia, on the 20th. No cause is assigned for the deed, says tho Savanuah Repub? lican. Grant will make no speeches this campaign. Prentico says ho will smoke his segar und Colfax can take the .stump.

The Kew York Day Book sayo Grant made a stammering speech to a mob who called to congratulate bim On bia nomination, in which he flatly promised, if elected, to be drunk the wholo four years of his term. Hia language Was that his j ""'record in the past Should be tho guide of the future. " Good heavens, what a trial!" A crusty old bachelor, not liking the way his landlady's daughter had of appropriating his hair oil, filled his bottle with liquid glue the day before a ball, to which the girl was invited. She stayed at home in con? sequence. Thurlow Weed remarks: "We do not say that Mr. Greeley was paid like a common lobby man, but we do know that Dean Iii ch m o nd-'peace to his ashes'-has often said in our presence that Greeley was a d-d expensive cuss." On Wednesday evening last, Ordi? nance Sergeant Frauzker and his four children were burned to death at Fort Ripley. Mrs. Frauzkier, in consequence, has become a raving maniac.
