The false teachings of Jjnscruputpus poU
tioians always beget fafce . positions, a sin
the Alabama case. In^?rder to nroke per?
sonal capital and flatter the vanity of the
American people, they' have, through con?
stant reiteration, been led to believe that
England was ready to acknowledge herself
in error,, and make restitution; that she was
so afraid of a war, that, anything short of
national indignity wouit! be gladly sub?
mitted to, in order to ?v?id cue. - The spirit
ol concession . faitti 'which Mr. ! Johnson's
propositions were met, were ci tod as con?
firming this fact, and the opportunity Beized
upon to multiply our demands. Either Mr.
Sum?cr et als. are afflicted with political
blindness, or have deliberately deceivod the
people, in not seeing that the compensation
England offered to America was intended in
the same spirit a stick of candy is given to
a crying baby in order to stop its noise and
make peace in tho house; and that, on the
other hand, she has never, either openly or
inferentially, abandoned the principal at
stake, or conceded herself in error. The
question involved is ono not confined to
England alone, bnt to every European na?
tion, more directly interested than wo ever
eau be iu maintaining the just principles of
international law, which hinge upon this
case. If the administration, in common
with a largo body of the American people,
endorse tho views of Chandler and Sumner,
a war will undoubtedly be the result. Great
Britain cannot abandon her position, even
if she wished to, which she does not, thc
New Orleans Tithes intimates, as thc present
tone and temper of her people plainly
proves. Nothing more deplorable could
possibly ocour, entailing, as it would, au
almost entire disruption of our commercial
interests, with the train of suffering ant
misery which inevitably follows in the wak<
of such trade shocks. Should a war oven
tuate, therefore, wo owe it either to tin
wilful stupidity or venality of a fow doma
gogues, suoh as Sumner, backed up by i
fanatical party and a weak administration
It is unnecces8ary to demonstrate the im
possibility of any Christian or true patrio
sympathizing in n measure so utterly wron)
and suicidul. Not one-tenth of thc peopl
of the United States really believe that th
Alabama depredations were anything mor
than a legitimate act of war, and even thu
single tenth would hardly consent to imper
lifo and property in order that a few shi
owners iu Boston and New York might hav
a few more thousands poured in the:
already overflowing coners. Unfortunately
angered peoples, ns angered individual
never reason/but go with the tide unt
such a time as they find themselves con
promised. This blunder has been made i
the Alabama oase-one that promises s
rious consequence, but one which, we sti
hope, may be averted.

THE Corros: CROP.-We continue to r
ceive from all sections tho most discouru
ing accounts of the cotton crop. Tho co
tinued cold nights and the recent co
winds which have prevailed throughout tl
entire Eastern and middlo sections of tl
State haye caused the plant to die, and
many localities the crop has been plough?
up and replanted in corn.
There can be no longer the slighte
doubt that the crop is at loast twenty
twenty-five days later than usual, and th
the stand is generally very deficient,
the season .should become more favorab
at an early day, a fair crop may bc mad
but this is quite uncertain.

Senator Sprngne on tn? CottOM Tax ?nd
the Condition of the Country.
OD Wednesday last, Senator Spraguo de?
livered an address before tho Memphis Com?
mercial Convention, from whick wo take the
following extract: j
"I stated in ruy placo in Congress, when
the tax was on cotton, that if ~?f- was not
taken off, it would drive Sea Island cotton
out of tho market entirely in a coupie of
years. I tell you, my Southern friends,-that
if you don't como to the rescue soon, cotton
will cease to bo a profitable article of pro?
duce. England is doubling her product of
cotton in her Indian possessions, and, with
France, is co-operating with tbe King of
Egypt to raiso a largo supply <">f cotton in
that country, which is said to bo a better
staple than the best ever sold in tho New
Orleans market. In Brazil they occupy tho
same position; so that we are to hare maur
competitors in the raising of cotton. Wc
must, therefore, increase the produco of our
lands, so as to successfully competo with
these countries. The position is alarming,
but if I shall succeed in urging yon to take
some steps in this important matter, I will
be repaid for my coming to Memphis. The
country at the present time is like Spain
before its fall. It. had been a powerful na?
tion, and had complete power of all tho
West Indies; but whore is bhe now? Let
those who read history answer tbe question.
They will bear mo out. This may also bo
come the condition of the United States, if
you do not exercise more self-dependence.
You iinagiuo that by your own strength of
arm you may and eau maintain the situa?
tion and avert all this; but I tell you there
is a power you cannot control unless you
bring a power of sufficient force and
strength against it, and that is the money
capital which is working night and day. It
is this that has mado England and France
powerful. Before England controlled this
vast capital power, she was torn nearly
asunder by dissensions. Disturbances wert
frequent, and she was always in a state ol
revolution. The monopoly was broken up,
ind the money is now used for the further
?nco of industrial objects.
"Through this means England hus been
enabled to control one-third of the trade ol
bhe globe. In England anarchy is but fi
?amo, and the Bouse of Lords, althougl
hereditary, is also but a name, and tho sanu
may bo said of the nobility of tho country.
The peoplo, from tho time I have referrei
to, have prospered, and thc want of it gav<
ns our civil war. If you hud bad tho powe
[ have alluded to, you could hold slavery
but the money power would have been ii
the masses. They would have been fouu(
mutually aiding each other, while tho blacl
man would have been held in proper subor
iination. What, however, has been tb
consequence I need not tell you-you ni
know. We took our law from the father
lauds, but in doing so wo turned tho moue;
leaf down. Those of you who have reai
history know that I am telling you what i
now a portion of history. I did not inten
to make a speech to you wbon I arose. 1
was only my intention to thank you for th
very cordial reception you have given mt
md to express tho hope that the greaten
harmony would characterize all your del
Derations. I will again say that tho mone
capital ought to be used for promoting tb
best interests of the country; for carryiu
on the trade and building up tho country
instead of keeping it concentrated and cei
tralized. There is danger to our fiuauci
institutions from this source, and it is we
kuowu to me that those capitalists who coi
i roi the money are anxious to get a strong*
Government than they imagine the presei
me to be, as they wish to protect thee
selves and their ill-gotten gains from tl
people whom they have crushed. We ha^
.ven now, in New York, a paper called tl
Imperialist, established for the purpose
menly arguing in favor of an empire. Tin
wish to strengthen their ill-gotten powe
ind control, as they are now doing, bm
aess, society, and the Government, who
diey have as completely under subjection
iver a domestic negro was in a white fami
Dreviot?s to the war."
Commenting on this speech, the Ne
Stork Democrat says:
"Tho speech of Senator Sprague,
Rhode Island, made a day or two since, 1
ore the delegates in attendance at the Co:
mercial Convention at Memphis, is a sevc
varning to those who aro crushing out t
most valuable commercial interests and t
jroatest source of wealth this country 1
iver known, by their villainously proser;
ivo and intolerant course. For many yei
?Senator Sprngue has been a cotton mai
facturer, and very recently ho has indulg
n thc luxury of planting, so that there ?
;ew so prominent men as he who aro so v*
informed upon the different branches of I
msiuess, tho wants and necessities of ea<
rle declaro) that, unless there is an imp
taut reform in tho matter of labor in \
Southern States, England and France woi
Form a combination for tho cultivation
:otton in Egypt, powerful enough to dr
the whole cotton business out of the Uni
?ttaes. None who can look at this mal
without prejudice, and have the slight
interest in the prosperity and advancem
of this country, will ?wurue that then
not much earnest tru. . in what Mr. Spra?
has said; but at the same time it is very ?
dent that no matter how much great c<
mercial interests may suffer, so long i
radical administration can manipulate
negroes of the South for political purpo
there will bo no reform in tho labor syst
It is gratifying to know that so keon
thorough a business man as Mr. Spra
bas seen the destructive policy of hispa
and is now earnestly engaged in comba
it."

What ls Loyalty!
There ia a suprema and intensely refresh?
ing impudence in the air with which we
hear the members of that self-righteous,
but actually rotten organization, tho radical
party, prate of "loyalty," a fealty to tho
Government which they clr.im alone to
rmsspjw. We hear them ask every hour in
tho day, and yet not so continually as for?
merly, is so-and-so "loyal?" Was he "loyal"
? during tho war? Is this wife or that the
wife of a "loyal" living husband, and this
I widow or that the widow of a "loyal" dead
one? In all cases, they speak downward, a:
from'a pinnacle of superiority, the self-con?
stituted judges of what loyalty is, and thc
self-appointed censors and pondemnors o'
what, in their bigotry, intolerance and in
soient pretensions, it is not. If tho future
historian, when ho conies to set forth th?
characteristics of these times, and lo drav
the moral lineaments of the radical party
looks about him for a name by which t<
characterize it, be might most aptly describ?
and baptize it as thc party of the Pharisees
Nothing so pharisaical in politics, and no
thing more pharisaical in anything elsi
has ever existod sinco the time whet
the self-righteous Pharisees of old, a
tho self-righteous radical party do now
thanked God that tiley were not as otho
men. Thero is no toleration in them fo
difference of opinion. Every ono who doe
not think as they do is a tit subject for th
stnke, the cross, tho prison-house, o
scourgiugs of any kind. Had they livei
when St. Stephen was stoned to death, the
would hnvo been in their element arnon)
tho stoners. Hud they been by at th
court of Pilate among tho Jews, when tb
Holy Ono was given over to crucifixion, am
a mulefuctor was spared because he agree
with tho Jews in opinion, they would li av
done as tho Jews did, and been arnon
those who shouted and tore themselves, an
cried crucify him-for opinion's sake-an
let loose a thousand malefactors, for n
other reason than that they thought as the
did.
What is loyalty, and what does true I03
alty mean? Tho highest notion that tlies
men can get out of it is loyalty to ever
idea, new or old, false or true, and ever
scheme, however wild, or revolutionary, c
wrong, of the radical party. This is thei
test and definition of loyalty; and all wb
do not como up to it are, accordiugto then
disloyal. When we contrast this dufinitio
with the true definition, nothing can L
moro odious and usurpations and abomim
ble than the light in which tho radical pai l
appears. What, then, does loyalty real!
signify among us? To what are we require?
as good and faithful citizens of one con
mon country, to bo loyal? Certainly not 1
any political party, good or bad; for th
would lead inevitably to tho conclusion, 1
wo havo always at least two parties auioi
us, that all tho members of at least one
them must be disloyal-a gross absurdit;
though not moro gross than the now dom
nant party have been guilty of. Certain
not to any one man, for that would be ?
autocratical despotism-a something
which we havo not, thus far, at least, claimi
to owe allegiance. If, then, it is not to o:
man, nor to many men, what is it that 1
are bound to be loyal to? To this-the G
vernment of the United States, as defin
and limited in the Constitution of t
United States. To this or nothing. Tl
is our political solar system. If wo mai
tain it, we maintain that round which o
duties, by the law of our political existen?
revolve, and by which the machinery of c
institutions is kept in its place. If we
not maintain it, we are recreant to our du
essentially disloyal to the Government,
matter to what party we may belong, a
though wo may shout our own loyalty fr?
all the hill-tops, and grow black in the h
in denunciatory declarations of the dish
alty of our neighbors. By this, the 01
true criterion, do the radical party-1
party of tbo Pharisees-stand condemn
notwithstanding their loud and labored p
tensions to loyalty and virtue. By this, t
do all who have upheld tho Constituti
though scourged for political opinion's sa
stand justified, and will appear so in ?
time, notwithstanding the obloquy wh
they have been obliged to endure.

It is stated that tho cauterization by
tallow is an immediate cure for ingrow
nails. Put a small piece of tallow in aspi
and heat it over a lamp until it becomes v
bot, and drop two or three drops betw
the nail and granulation. The effect is
most magical. Pain and tenderness ar?
once relieved, and in a few days the grn

dry, so as to admit of being pared a

It may be truthfully said that the grc\n

THE RAILROAD DIFFICULTY.-The pre?
sence, in our city yesterday, of President
Magrath, of the South Carolina Railroad
Company, with a oommitteo of Directors,
from Charleston, gave rise to a variety of
rumors on the vexed subject of the railroad
companies, and '? . .) likelihood of an amica?
ble adjustment.
From all we can gather on anything like
authority, it seems that the basis of a settle?
ment proposed last week, and thought to be
acceptable to parties iu interest in this city,
which compromised the whole litigation by
the payment of 8100,000 in Columbia and
Augusta Railroad bonds at par to the South
Carolina Ruilroad Company, has not been
further acted upon by the City Couucil, and
consequently no reply made to that pro?
posal. Instead of which a formal oiler has
been made by Council to purchase a certain
amount of stock in the Macon Road from
tire South Carolina Railroad Company at its
cost, payable in bonds of Augusta and Co?
lumbia Railroad Company at par, by which
purchase it was expected that the South
Carolina Railroad would forogo all claims
and privileges, also allow the free use of its
bridge and several miles of track until the
1st January, 1870, to the Columbia Road.
Since writing the above, wo havo the best
authority for saying that yesterday after?
noon President Magrath authorized ii pro?
posal to the City Council of Augusta, which,
if accepted, must practically end the con?
troversy. It is said to be a direct off-h?nd
offer that the South Carolina Railroad Com?
pany will waive all claims against the city,
growing out of the contract made in 1800
with Council, (which involves tho amount
of principal and interest in the Macou sub?
scription,) the city to waive any claims it
may bo supposed to have against the South
Carolina Railroad, aud that Company to
bind itself not to interfere with tho Colum?
bia aud Augusta Railroad's orossing the
river into Augusta. The South Carolina
Railroad to have its present rights guaran?
teed to it, and for the future to bo on a
common footing with all other railroads en?
tering or passing through this city.
\ Aug usia Constitutionalist, 27/7/.
Unless a treaty of peace, or at least a sus?
pension of hostilities has been agreed upon
by tho two belligerent corporations within
the past few days, on to-day will go into
effect tho injunction applied for by the City
Council of Augusta, on the 15th of this
month, and granted by Judge Wm. Gibson.
That injunction restrains tho South Caro?
lina Railroad Company from discriminating
against Augusta in their rates of freight and
fare for passengers, in the penal sum of
8100,000. By that injunction the South
Carolina Railroad Company is also enjoined
from using or opening any passenger depot
or ticket office in this city, and from taking
on their trains auy passengers for their road
except at the old passenger depot of the
oompauy, situated on the comer of Rey?
nolds and Centro streets, in the sum of
810,000.
The twelve days' time allowed in the in?
junction expire to-day, and wo suppose if
some compromiso has not in the meantime
been effected between the city and the South
Carolina Railroad Company, that thc pro?
hibition will be enforced.
