COLUMBIA, S. G Sunday Horning, August 1, 1869. Th? IlcpuMican Part jr and ?ho blab ?nd The radical press and the supporters of that party are making strenuous efforts to secure the allegiance of these important auxiliaries-the Irish and German citizens of the United States in the ?pproaohicg elections. On the authority of (he New York Herald, it is stated that of 35,000 German rotes in the city of New York, not more than 1,500 will be oast io favor of the radical party. The Germans doolare that in tho distribution of office, too little falla to their lot; and with their own candidates in the field, the establishment of a morn? ing paper, their own special organ, and their ward political organizations, they hate shown a settled and rooted pur? pose to assert themselves and their claims in the next canvass. These na? tionalities compose a formidable element, whick the radicals heretofore have tr ?rited with scorn and contempt, and at tho olevent? hoar, recognizing the tre? mendousfarce which they wield? and im : pending defeat, -which, like the sword of Damocles, hangs overhead, woo them with honeyed accents, to gain their aid and support. Says tho Express : "The only party in this country which is pledged to uphold impartial justice and equal rights to all men, without re? gard to race, nationality or religious be? lief." . This declaration will prove a sorry mantle to hide the former sins of that party, if the Irish and Germans have faithful recollection of the status which the Republicans assigned them before their strength -and numbera stood dis? covered. Un,n the Irish and Germans - forget the odious proscription -of the Know Nothings anterior tothef war? Or can they fail to remember the denuncia? tions by the leaders of the Republicans of foreigners, and the proposition in the Legislature of Pennsylvania to strike the word white from the State Constitu? tion? Has the recollection ceased to exist that it was asserted that tho Irish and Germans were not so competent to exercise the rights and privileges of the bftllot-box as the ignorant negro, newly disenthralled from the bonds o? slavery? "Wo can remember when the Northern papers teemed with advertisements for eervico and labor, to which was appended the in variable notice, "no Irish need ap plt/;u and now, recognizing the powerful aid which these elements will lend to their ranks, the Republican party, coolly ignoring their sweeping proscriptions, are, with every species of cajolery and persuasion, seeking to enlist on their side the very men whom heretofore they plaoed subord?nate to the negro. The Union army was composed largely of Irish and Germans. Amongst its most gallant soldiers-officers and privates were Irish and Gormans; and wo submit ? that it was a sorry return for the services of men whose blood had crimsoned many a battle-field, to rate thom lower than the brutal negro, but recently emanci? pated from bondage. We are happy in our faith that the foreign element in thc South is steadfast in its fidelity to De? mocracy. This population in our section is composed, in the greater part, of work? ing men-laborers, mechanics and arti? sans; and to them and their lines of busi? ness the negro will be antagonists. Under the old regime, the slave-owner found it a cheaper way of doing certain kinds of mechanical work, aud more profitable as an investment, to train and educate a proportion of his slaves as me? chanics; and with these, of course, the white artisan oonld not come into com? petition; but now these very negro me? chanics, being free agents and sworn ad? herents to the radical party, stand upon their own platform, and the gate of com? petition is open, without au obstacle, to the white artisan in tho South. There is not ashadow of a doubt of the course which the Irish and Germans will adopt in tho South; and we deem it right that our people should alwayB give them tho prefereuce in their business, when tho chance is afforded, over the negro, who is bend?Dg every effort and obeying blindly the commands of his leaders, to utterly ruin and destroy tho white men of tho South. A CHANCE FOII ANOTHER EXODUS. Rev. Wm. McLain, of Washington City, Secretary of the African Colonization Society, gives notioe that tho society's ship Golconda will sail from Baltimore for Liberia about tho 1st of November. Through tickcls will be given to all co? lored persons, of good character, who fch^desire to emigrate to their "native ?^^ueath;" also six mouths' subsistence after their arrival. Those qualified to act os missionaries or teachers, whethor male or female, will be employed ut good s.khiries. To ?ho LMUH' Memorial A??o<-In t lons ot When th? papers an noaa oed that on the day set ! apart Ibr the decoration of the graves of the Federal dead at the j Arlington Cometorye near Washington City, a United States offioer, with a de? tachment of troops detailed for the ex? press purpose, kopt gunrd over a few Confederate graves within tho enclosure, to prevent visitors from putting flowers upon these gravea either in ignorance or intentionally, and that this officer had mado his guards walk peat, not around, but upon the graves, and had offered to the graves and to the few persons who in ignorance (for no one seems to have done it knowingly) threw flowers upon them, every insult and indignity his rogo could invent, there went through thc South, with the news, a deep-felt thrill of pleasure. The malice of our bitter enemies, the malice which, under tho I name of "Loyalty to tho Union and Con? stitution," has devastated, oppressed, and sought to degrade the South for eight years, not only here threw off its disguiso, for this it has done so often that loyalty is no longer a disguise but only tho recognized fashion, but in this case it displayed its pitiful meanness to the scorn and contempt of tho world, and we could- hut rejoioe over it. And tho insulted dead were amply revenged by that sentiment of civilization which pro? tects the grave even of tho felon, and honors above all others the gravo of the soldier who d?ed flghtf hg bravely for his home. The friends of. those whoso re? mains lie in the Federal cemeteries niny then rest seoure in tho protection of this sentiment, for the hiss of scorn hus stung too deeply for this act ever to bo re? peated. But these insults were aimed, not only at the thirty dead within tho walls of Arlington Cemetery, but at tho memo? ries of the Confederate dead wherever they lie, and as Such they are recognized by every heart in the South which mourns a soldier of the lost cause. And there is; thank Heaven, yet one organi? zation left which no tyranny can eithor intimidate or destroy, and whose express purpose and grateful task is tho pre? servation and honor of these dear me? mories. The Ladies' Memorial Associa? tions, and these alone, can speak und act on this occasion for the South, and to theso associations the South looks for the fitting response"^ the indignities of? fered its most cherished sentiments. Let our memorial associations, as many as may be necessary, unito in publicly de? manding from tho United States Govern? ment the remains they have songht pub? licly to insult, and let them be buried with every honor, in a spot specially pre? pared, and a monument erected to tell tho talo to ont children, and proclaim that the South will never cease to revere tho memories of those who fought beneath her banner and laid down their lives in vain,for her. liberty. The writer is-aware that the removal of these bodies to Confederate soil has al? ready been proposed, but that, for fear of a refusal on the part of tho Govern? ment to give them np, it is desired to proceed as privately as possible. Ho is convinced, however, that he represents a very wide-spread sentiment, when he begs and protests that it shall not be done pri? vately, but, on the contrary, as publicly as possible. The honors we will pay should not be in private when the insults woro public. The application for authority to remove the insulted remains should expressly state that we honor them the more for being so hated by tho people, by the wrath of God, our conquerors aud oppressors. There need be no fear that tue United States Government would refuse tho request, for it would bo en foroed, if publicly and persistently made, by tho publie sentiment of tho world, and to refuse would be to endorse afresh the dishonoring of the graves and to keep them for the very purpose. Aud, oven if the request should be refused, its having been publicly made and refused will bo a far better vindication of the memories of ont dead than any success? ful application made privately and with? out a full statement that we would re? move them iu scorn of the insults offered and in stronger attachment to and deeper regrets for the cause in which they fell. And tho ground to receive them should be prepared and beautified, and tho pub? lic application renewed from year to year, until it is granted for very shame. In the hope that theso views will meet the approbation of those whose memo? ries of the Confederate dead have not died with the canse, or cooled with re? construction, and to securo unity of ac? tion, the writer respectfully suggests that the memorial associations of Richmond, who havo already done BO much to testify how sacred they hold theso memories, and who have won tho confidence nnd gratitude of tho whole South by their tender und equal caro of the graves of every section, should unite in tho effort to remove theso bodies to some suitable spot in or near one of their cemeteries. Let them simply signify their willing? ness to uudortako it, and overy memorial association iu the South will contribute liberally to raise un ampio fund to testify to our children that in esteeming and honoring the memories of its noble dead, wo still havo a united South. X. COLUMBIA^ 8. C., July 30, 180'.). Wi un NOT ACCEPT.-The London Times docs not expect that the Emperor Napo? leon III will ever accept the character of an ordinary constitutional sovereign after tho EDglish-Hnnoveriau type. Strong rulers modify constitutions, and whoover may bo minister, he will always find a muster in tho man who won his own i throne, and has kept it through fair I weather and foul all these years. FEARFUL EXPLOSION OF Frsa-WORKS. Al an early hoar Wednesday evening an explosion of a trnck load of fire-works occurred in City Hall Square, New York, fatally injuring two person? and badly hurting seven others. The particulars are thus given by the Journal of Com? merce: "It appears that an association koowa as the Jeremiah Murphy Club, of the fourth ward, were returning from a chowder party at Bayonne, New Jersey, and were passing along Park Bow, on their way home, whon the explosion oe curred. The members of the clnb were in throe large stages, followed by the officers in two carriages, and these in turn followed by a large truck loaded with rockets, Bom an candles and colored lights. When opposite Beckman street, tho men on the truck commenced dis? charging fire-works in a very reckless manner, sending off rockets in a nearly horizontal direction across the Park, and others agoinst the houses on Park Bow. "The discharges wore maintained regularly nntil thc truck reached the front of French's Hotel, when, by some carelessness, a rocket burst among the tire-works on the truck, and a terrific explosion followed. Buming rockets and Roman candles were thrown in all directions among the crowd in front of the hotel, through the windows of the numerous street curs pp.ssingntthe time, and into the park. Tho horses attached to tho truck becntno frightened and dashed along tho stroot toward Tryon Row, dragging the truck nnd its blazing lond tifter them. Tho horses attached to tho stages and carriages ran away, and for a few minutes the utmost consterna? tion prevailed. One mau, with his cloth? ing on fire from his waist upward, rushed into tho hotel, shrieking for assistance; others, dreadfully burned, were rolling on the ground; whilo many were panic stricken and fled from the scene. Pas? sengers leaped from the stroct cars, as tho blazing missiles tore through the windows, and the crowd congregated on the side-walk in front of French's rushed through the halls into the back rooms, or through the side stroot." SAD ACCIDENT IN NEWAKK, N. J.-A lamentable accident occurred in Newark on Wednesday evening, by which two persons, just returned from a pleasure trip, suddenly lost their lives. Tho steamer which had borne the excursion? ists to Dudley's Grovo returned and drew up at tho city dock to land her load of living freight. Tho gang-planks were thrown down and tho passengers crowded over them in haste to get to their homes. Mr. Jumes Magee was walking off with the crowd, when, pressed by those who followed him, he missed his footing and fell over the side. As he wout down ho threw out his arms for aid and caught a lady, Mrs. Morris, and pulled her down with him. They plunged into the water and disappeared. A search was imme? diately made for their bodies, but it had proved unsuccessful ut a late hour Wednesday night. A SHOOTTKO AFFRAY m'UNION.-Tho Union Times, of tho 29th-ultimo, says: A most unfortunate altercation, in the Main street of Union, on Thursday last, between John Sanders and T. J. Greer, resulted in the shooting of the latter by the former. Sunders then walked down the street with his pistol in his hand, went through the back door of the hotel, and escaped. He is still at large. The ball entered the left side of . Mr. Greer's stomach, below the heart, and buried it? self in his body. Tho wound is severe and dangerous, but his friends entertain hopes of his recovery. Mr. Greer is Probate Jodgo of Union County. The difficulty originated in n settlement of the affairs of an old business firm, in which they were both interested. SOUTHERN SECURITIES IN NEW YORK. Tho financial article in the last number of the New York Herald says that the general heaviness of the market was also witnessed in the market for Southern securities. The following were the clos? ing prices of the Southern list: Tennes? see, ex-coupon, 62%(o)63; do., new,-56% @56%; Virginia, ex-coupon, 67J?@58; Georgia sixes, 85^@86; North Carolina, ex-coupon, 57)<j'@58; do., new, 50)a@ 50?.! ; Louisiana sixes, 69(^70; Alabama eights, 93><<@94; South Carolina sixes, 65@67; do", new, 64j?@65j do., regis? tered stock, 64@66; Memphis and Charleston, first, 85(a?89; do., second, 74@76; Greenville and Columbia Rail? road, guaranteed, 67@69. CONTRACTS WITH CITIZENS OF BEBEL STATES.-Judge Lowell, of Massachu? setts, has just mado a decision of much importance in relation to the validity of contracts with tho citizens of rebel States. In 1862 the bark Lamplighter was destroyed by the Alabama. Among her owners were four citizens of rebel States. Mr. Payne, the master, collected the insurance and paid it to the ownor living in Massachusetts, holding that those living in thc rebel States had no title to participate. Ono of the fonr owners, who lived in South Carolina, re? cently brought suit against Mr. Payne's administrators, and now recovers by the decision of the court. Three years ago, seven sisters, tho youngest fifteen and tho eldest twenty five, with invalid parents, emigrated from Ohio to Minuesotu, whero two I years ago, nuder tho homestead law, they secured ICU acres of land at Big Woods, I some sixty miles from St. Paul. These girls last year Bold 900 bushels potatoes, 500 bushels coro. 200 bushels wheat, 250 bushels turnips, 200 bushels beets, 1,100 heads cabbage, and $200 worth of garden stuff. All the clearing, grubbing, plough? ing, harvesting, Ac.', wns done by them, and they have ot present forty acres cleared and in crop. A SAD MISTAKE.-Miss Mary Lard, of Barnwell, died on Wednesday morniug last, from tho effects of morphine, taken by uiUtr.ke for quinine. David Griffith and wife, residing at Cambria, Minnesota, left home on the 4th instant, leaving fonr little children nt tho house. Tho children, in their efforts io amuse thomsolvos, acoidontally set fire to a shed. ; Terribly frightened at what tbej had ?f?ne, ana to escape pun? ishment, two of them ran into the woods and hld themselves, and the other two, incredible as it mav seem, ran to the river and drowned themselves. A GOVERNMENT SPECULATION.-Tho Treasury Department bas sold eighty hydraulic presses which have been used for printing the fractional currency. The presses originally co.it about 81,800 each, and now bring less than $100 each. That ia the ond of this little Government sp?culation. The printing of this cur? rency is hereafter to be dono by con true t. A garter snake, with two distinct heads, was killed in North Edgefield, near Nashville, Tenn., on Monday last. It was taken to Dr. Goon's store in Nash? ville, where it was placed in alcohol for Ereservation as a curiosity. Tho two eada are said to be exactly alike, and stand out about tho same distanco from the neck. A railroad is about to be made through the wild region known os John Brown's Tract, in the Adirondacks of Western New York. The region has been accessi? ble only to hunters and adventurous sportsmen heretofore. Tho road is to pass from Saratoga Springs to Ogdcns burg, cutting tho great wilderness in two. New York waiters are an aristocratic set. A local poper says: "Tho 'swell? est' waiters in the city are those in lower Delmonico's-tho house with thc: Pom peiian portico. Tho aggregate value of tho studs and bijouterie worn by these foreign noblcmeu has been roughly esti? mated at 030,000." Tho brigands who made traveling so picturesque in Italy are gradually dis? appearing. Nearly two hundred and fifty of thom were captured last year, the country population, who formerly sided with the highwaymen, putting the police on their tracks. A day or two sinco, to advance the gold premium, some Wall street specula? tors had gold taken from a bank and carted around the streets, to give tho impression it was intended for the steam? er for Europe, putting it up three-fourths per cent. A person was asked why he did not take a newspaper. "Because," said he, "my father, when he died, loft mc a good many newspapers, and I haven't road thom through yet." He afterwards be? came n pauper. Mr. Stewart has finally concluded the Surebase of tho North east corner of roadway and Ninth street, New York, and will extend his store so as to cover it; thus making it a whole squaro in extent. The Cape Cod Gazelle, says a man, re? siding at Marston Mills, Barnstable, has three sons, three, horses, three cows, three calves, three hogs* three cats, and three broods of -chickens. "Mammy!"

Leo Harrison and Thomas Oladman, two respectable colored men of Lynch? burg Ya., decline appointments of. regis? trara in Lynchburg because they'cannot take the oath. The Indians are reported to be down on Grau t's Quakers. "Um 1" cried Hole in-the-Bottle, chief of the Arapahoes, "Quakers ob good; bring water; no whis? key 1" Miss Susan Caroline Godsey, tho sleep? ing wondor, died at her mother's homo, some eight miles from Hickman, Ken? tucky, on Wednesday, 14th instant.

"Figures won't lie" is an old and homely expression; but. few mon can look on a fashionable woman's figure now-a-days and say as much. The loader of a recent camp mooting in Ohio announced "The brother-in-law of President Grant will now lead ns in prayer." A New Jersey horse thief was, on Tues? day, sentenced to 150 years' imprison? ment. Birmingham, Conn., manufactures two hundred millions pins weekly. Hub-bub-A Boston boy. Funeral Invitation.
