Sunday Morning, Joly ll, 1868.
THO Democratic Plmtftorm .
We present to oar readers, this
morning, the Demooratio platform,
aa adopted in the tate National Con?
vention of the party. It will be
found to have the ring of tho truo
metal. Tho prinoiples it embodies
commend themselves to the sober
sense of conservative people, and
the bold manner in which it arraigns
the radical party for the enormi?
ties it has perpetrated, is in keeping
with tho importance of the issues it
meets. In its condemnation of ne?
gro domination, and ita liberal ac?
knowledgment of the rights and dig?
nity of the Southern States of the
old regime, it will command the er
thnsiastio support of the Southern
whites and conservatives. And in
its demand for a return to an era of
law, order, civil rule and constitu?
tional principles, it: will rally to its
support tho intelligence, the conser?
vatism and the genuine loyalty of the
North. North, as well as South, arms
has ruled long enough, and the popu?
lar voice will demand that arms yield
to the toga-that Grant give way to
Seymour. MAT HEAVEN DEFEND THE
EIGHT. _^ :_
President Johnson.
We publish -in another column, a
letter from President Johnson, in
reply to the communication of a
number of citizens of New York,
asking if he would allow his name to
be presented to tho Nominating Con?
vention as a candidate for re-election.
The letter referred to, is a delinea?
tion of his defence of the Constitu?
tion in a critical period whioh, though
drawn by himself, will be recognized
by all just and generous minds as a
.correct and faithful picture. The
Baltimore Sun declares (and we fully
endorso the declaration) that there
hos been no exhibition of intrepidity
in the late war, as truly grand and
impressive as the unfaltering moral
courage, the patient fortitude and
hopeful patriotism with which the
President has, from first to last, and
almost "solitary and alone" at times,
from his high place sought to defend
the Constitution against the persis?
tent assaults and olamorous threats
of a powerful faction. The time will
come when Americans will do him
full justice, and when the "common?
wealth" will have "a potty," in whose
memories ho will occupy a place far
more exalted than any that official
station can bestow. When the pas?
sions of the hour have passed away,
it will bo remembered that this man,
who has boon denounced as an am?
bitious usurper aud made the target
of thc most vindictive and atrocious
calumnies that were ever uttered
against an American President, might
have purchnsed tho laudations of thc
very men who curse him, and attain?
ed the object of the most vaulting
ambition, if he had consented tc
sacrifico his conviction of right anc
duty to popularity with the onjj
party that could have made bin
powerful. He bad but to acquiesc<
in the Congressional plan of recon
struction to becomo tho absolut?
master of the situation, with tho dis
position of enormous patronage. Tin
self-negation with which heubdicatec
imperial power and influence, an<
the more than Hornau heroism wit!
which he has maintained his convie
tions, will give nn imperishable plac
in history to the nomo of Andre\
Johnson, as the "defender of th
Constitution," through tho mosttrj
ing and revolutionary period of ou
country's history.

Convention, and to hear from our

J. P. THOMAS,
For Dist. Cen. Ex. Committee.
Tile Benatorshlp.
MB. EDITOR: One of the most
offensive exhibitions of political de?
pravity ever witnessed in a free coun?
try, is the contest for the Senator
ship now pending before the Legis?
lature. On the one hand, is Mackey,
Collector of the Port of Charleston,
a "Union man," so-called. But he
is said to have made ono of the most
acrimonious secession speeches de?
livered before the war in that city.
He now daily gathers a crowd of
white men and negroes together, that
they may seo him weep crocodile
tears over tho wrongs he has suffered.
During tho Convention, he appealed
to the passions to carry his points.
Here, on the contrary, he appeals to
the sentiments, and undertakes to
perform the remarkable role of cry?
ing himself into the United States
Senate. It is probably the first sa?
line outlay over made lu the political
history of the country. The tears
should, therefore, command a full
price as a curiosity of art, if of
nothing else. The injustice done
Dr. Mackey has been terrible. He
ought to cry. After tho war, he went
North, and took up contributions,
amounting to several thousand dol?
lars. He beoame rich. He was made
Collector of the Port of Charleston,
with an office income of $10,000 a
year. Edward, one of his sons, was
Assistant Assessor, with a salary of
$2,500 a year; meanwhile, he was a
member of the Convention, at eleven
dollars a day, and member of a Com?
mission on Elections, with salary
enough to satisfy any three reasona?
ble men in Christendom. Reoently
he has been elected Sheriff of Charles?
ton, with a prospective income of
over $30,000 a year. Another son
also holds a fat office in the Custom
House. Still the family do not seem
to be satisfied. The old gentleman
continually cries for "more," and
the poor negro is made the monkey
to draw bis chesnuts from the fire.
A clear case of subsistence on party
pap.
The other man is Mr. F. A. Saw?
yer, a citizen of Charleston and Col?
lector of the Internal Revenue Bu?
reau. So far as wo know, ho bas
been fortunato enough to possess a
clear record. As to his personal
character-and this is what makes
the exhibition on his part infinitely
worse-that radicalism has the power
to undermine a man's character and
destroy his self-respoct, is one of the
most infamous features of the creed.
Here is a man, for instance, who,
while above personal reproach, has,
in a recent speech at Charleston, de?
clared sentiments in favor of the co?
lored man-in favor of granting him
power and placo-in favor of his re?
cognition as one ontitlod to fill evon
the highest offices in the gift of the
people-nay, almost in favor of SO'
cial equality itself-which William
Lloyd Garrison, Henry Wilson oi
Charles Sumner, ten years ago, woulc
not have dared to utter in Massachu
setts. And, as if to make these as
sortions good, there is not an hom
in tho day that ho does not plan
himself upon a practical equality
with the negro, and, for all weknow:
pledge his personal and official influ?
ence to advance his colored brothel
to power and place. The time wil
come when such men as Sawyer wil
find their proper lovel. The love foi
the negro, which ho affects to cal
"principle," will eventually drag bin
down from every attitude of self-re
speot, and no decent white man wil
dare, in the face of day-light, to taki
him by the hand.
We accept tho issuo of Whipper
"this is a question of race." Le
the white man rule the white man
and, if he can, lot the colored genia
rule the negro. But whon suoh ai
individual aa Sawyer-no matter ho\
sincere he may bo in behalf of radi
calism-attempts to claim the rcspec
of the true born Carolinian-put hic
down-crowd him out-ignore am
make him hide his hoad in shame.

To the People ot Bootu Carolina.
HEAR THE OTHER SIDE.
?Wo like-Governor James L. Orr.
; Sra: Af tor exhausting, as I had
supposed* your store house of advice
to the representatives o' the tempo
! rary regime in South Carolina, you
now tarn to the constituents who
elevated you to your office, and
whose views and sympathies you
have misrepresented, to approach
them with your counsel, and to ad?
dress to (hem a long eulogy upon
your own political course. Give me
leave to say, that, in my opinion,
you have failed to impress them,
either with your wisdom in the past,
your conduct in the present, or your
policy for the future Your motives,
allow me to say, I do not now, and
have never, impugned. I accord
you a disposition to meet your re?
sponsibilities, and, in your own way,
to serve the people. But I do call
in question that fatal policy of mere
expediency, which seems ever to
regulate your politics, and which, in
disregard of immutable principles,
can never subserve the ultimate and
substantial interests of imperilled
communities. You have said, that,
when the infamous and degrading
Howard Amendment was submitted
to the several Southern States, you
approved of its rejection by the said
StateB. This was right; and, had
you continued to act in this spirit of
manly protest against the unreason?
able demands of the radical party,
there would have arisen no necessity
for you to attempt your vindication
before the white people of the State.
Every act that goes forth with an
explanation, or that requires ono in
the end, is, for that very reason, of
doubtful acceptance. Let tho trum?
pet send forth no uncertain sound;
let the bugle blasts of truth ever ring
clear and distinct.
But you did not consult the sug?
gestions, either of tho best policy or
the highest principle, in the emer?
gency that the reconstruction Acts of
Congress precipitated upon our peo?
ple. According to your own admis?
sions, in your address before the
Charleston Board of Trade, you ad?
vised the people of South Carolina to
accept the plan of restoration pro?
vided for in the said reconstruction
Acts, and to conform to its degrad?
ing conditions. And your magiste?
rial course, from that time until you
were removed, by military edict,
from your high office, has been in
strict accord with your mistaken
advice, which involved the policy
that you seemed to have proposed to
yourself.
Allow me to observe, that you do
not place the same estimate upon
those reconstruction Acts as I do. I
consider them as embodying the
foulest tyranny that was ever perpe?
trated upon a vanquished people.
Consult the records of history,
ancient or modern, sacred or pro?
fane, and in vain will you seek for a
parallel. Follow the Goth, the Van?
dal and the Hun, in his conquests;
view the line of march taken by
Genghis Khan or Tamerlane; con?
sult the records of Moslem tyranny,
of Greek and Roman conquests, of
Jewish vengeance, of Gentile hate;
examine the treatment accorded to
conquered provinces by France,
Austria or Russia, and I defy any
one to show me a policy more un?
natural, more outrageous, more mer?
ciless, more cruel, than that pro?
posed for the South by the radical
party in the military Acts of recon?
struction.. This, sir, is bold lan?
guage, but it is true; and I challenge
its refutation, even by the warmest
"Republican" apologist. The great
feature of the reconstruction scheme
that stands out in bold relief, and
which is conspicuous in its enormity,
is that which, in giving unqualified
suffrage to the blacks, aud in dis?
franchising many of tho whites,
virtually establishea iu South Caro?
lina negro rule and negro supremacy.
This is tho enormity against which I
protest, and against whioh it was
meet for the Governor of the old
commonwealth to have raised an
indignant voice, in behalf of an out?
raged people.
In other countries, and in other
times, after the storm of war had
spent its fury over a desolated land,
it was allowed to the wisest, the best
and the purest of tho people to as?
semble and make an earnest effort to
reconstruct their broken fortunes
and to kindle anew in their people
the dying fires of hope. But this
poor privilege was denied to tho
people of the South.
No' enough that our causo had
boen lost and our banners furled;
not enough that our land had been
ravaged and our homesteads burnt;
not enough that the pride and flower
of the land had fallen in battle; not
enough that we had yielded to the
arbitrament of tho sword, wo were
called upon to falsify our past; to
ignoro our leaders in the conuoil
chamber and the field; and, failing
to do this, we were asked to acqui?
esce in the role and domination of
our rocently emancipated slaves.
Yes I wo-the white people of Sooth
Carolina, members of tho Caucasian
race-wore called upon tamely to
accept, not the equality, but the rule,
of the ignorant African.
That was what the reconstruction
scheme of a radical Congress involv?
ed, and yet you take pride in sug
gesting, now, that it is to be placed
to your credit,' that yon advised the
people of South Carolina to make
the moat of this!
. Sir, the white people of this State
indignantly rejected your advice, and
reflect now, with infinito pride and
satisfaction, upon the course they
adopted. They dc not desire such
counsel as you have now to give.
The role that you have taken up,
does not address itself to their judg?
ment and sympathy. They fear that
the route leads, by easy stages, to
the turbid haven of radicalism.
Permit me to say that they look,
with hope and confidence, to that
great historical party with whioh
you are no longer identified. You
nave decided that this party can give
us no relief, and, to some, your rea?
soning may appear conclusive. Bal
not so to us. The Democratic party
has lately put forth its measures and
its men. One of those measures pro?
nounces the reconstruction Acts as
unconstitutional, revolutionary and
void. That great party regards the
?>resent Government in South Caro
ina ns illegitimate-the offspring of
Congressional usurpation. The De?
mocracy of South Carolina plant
themselves upon the platform of the
National Democracy, and, with God's
help, and tho help of the Northern
Democracy, they intend to make a
grand effort to make the Democratio
cause triumphant, and to redeem
their State from alien and negro
rule.
It is in vain for any man, or any
party, to shirk tho great issue before
the conntry. The white men of the
South do not intend tamely to sub?
mit to the yoko of negro rule; nor
do the generous men of the North
desire to fasten it upon them. The
Democratic party hos uttered its
decree. Tho gallant Blair has said:
"We are about entering upon n con?
test for the restoration of the Union,
and the principles of the Constiution,
and the preservation of the while race
from the domination of a semi-barba?
rous people."
In this sign wo intend, politically,
to fight, and we expect to conquer.
Respectfully, yours,
HAMPDEN.

Legislature, upon the matter of this
State's sending a negro to the United
States Senate, says: "Nothing
could do so much to settle the ques?

Uniled States."
And Senator Sumner is right.
Do not our colored friends see
that, if their radical friends here are
in earnest, that they will favor send?
ing a colored man to Congress?
Let Whipper sound anew his de?
mand for substantial equality. We
shall soon see if the radicals mean
what they say.
Will tho white radical candidates

Will the modest Mackey withdraw

Will sweet-tongued Sawyer retire

Will Croesus Robertson give way

not?

Samuel Lover, the author of
"Rory O'More," died in Ireland,
last week. Mr. Lover was born in
Dublin, in 1797, and first attracted
public attention at a dinner given to
Thomas Moore, in 1818, where he
sang a song, the music and words of
which were of his own composing.
He at once became ta contributor to
the periodical literature of that day.
In 1820, be published his "Legends
and Stories of Ireland," a second se?
ries of which appeared in 1834. In
1834, also appeared his famous song
of "Rory O'More," and ten years
afterwards he elaborated this rollick?
ing and popular lyric into a novel.
He was, also, the author of "Handy
Andy." In 1844, he made a tour of
Great Britain, reciting portions of
his novels and singing his songs. He
gave these entertainments in this
country in 1846. In the fall of that
year, the "Colombia Rooms," in this
oity, were filled to overflowing, by a
highly interested audience. Soon
after bis return to England, in 1848,
he retired to private life. Since 1856,
Mr. Lover has been in the receipt of
a Government pension of ?100 per
annum. The deceased poet, mu?
sician and novelist also possessed
considerable skill as a miniature
painter. Indeed, if is said, he de?
voted some years of his life to that
profession.
