Wo appreciate tbe independent spirit
which leads a journal like thc Orange
burg .News to acknowledge the reform
demanded in its own party. As a mem?
ber of the Republican party, it is com?
mendable in the ive ivs to desire to purify
and dignify tint organization. Bat when
it proposes "to do this by an effusion of
Democratic life-blood into the veins of
the radical body, we emil this a cool pro?
position. The Democrats of South Ca?
rolina are Democrats by conviction. If
the News wants to get into good com?
pany, let it join the ranks of a liberal

A Magnificent Fuiure ri oplmlnl for til?
South and the Republic.
For the Sonth and this whole country,
the New York Herald sees a grand future.
A magnificent panorama uufolds itself
before the kindling gaze of the writer.
Soon will order be re-established and
property made secure in these lato "re?
bel" States. The enormous plantations
.will give way to numerous farms, in?
creasing the number of landholders, and
more effectually developing the wealth
.of the soil. Northern capital will flow
South; manufactories will spring up ou
every side; a golden era will dawn upon
this section. But, it argues, labor, more
than capital, is needed, and to China the
Herald looks for tho supply deeded. It
regards the Chinaman admirably adapted
to the South, and with the most hopeful
expectations does it indulge the prospect
of the celestials covering the Pacific
slopes and filling np the Mississippi
valley. And passing on, the Herald
points to the great future of this country.
It says:
"It is impossible in considering this
subjeot not to bo struck with the many
present signs indicative of the great fu?
ture of this country. The enterprise of
our people is such that we cannot wait
until our native population covers and
utilizes our vast territory. Our fields
must be ploughed, our mines worked,
our factories run, if we should bring la?
borers from all lands. Europe pours
her surplus population in upou us by
increasing thousauds every year. Tiler?
is room aud work aud plenty for them
all, and to spare. The emigration fever
which has so long raged in tho nations
of North-western Europe has spread its
contagion to Asie* China and Japan
have both caught it, and it is not unrea?
sonable to conclude that within the next
deoade we shall count among our popu?
lation many millions of Asiatics. Under
the hand of industry the South will again
become a fruitful garden, and freo labor
will do what slavery never could accom?
plish. The Pacific slope will present in
reality, aud on a gigantic scale, the
plentifulness and the luxurious beauty of
the fabled gardens of tho East. Our
great Western wildernesses will be re?
claimed, and where aro now tho might}'
forest and the far-spreading prairie, tho
home of the Indian und the buffalo,
there will be seen not only the fruitful
field aud the happy home, but tho peace?
ful village, and it may bc also the great
and wicked city. Our multiplied and
multiplying railroad and telegraphic
lines will bind up the mighty whole and
give it cohesion and force. Amcug tho
nations of tho earth we shall have no
rival. The great empires of the past,
the mightiest the world has known, will
siuk into insignificance in comparison
with the great republic of the West. I
Our influence on the outside world will j
be tremendous. Our word will be law. j
'I am an American citizen' will be a
boast which bas had nothing to compare
with it since Rome was in the zenith o? j
her g'ory. Our chances, indeed, are so
great that it is scarcely possible for us to
abuse them. It is well for us, however,
to bear in mind that nations, like indi?
viduals, may sin, and that if we do sin,
retribution soouer or later will follow."
Our readers will judge for themselves
how far these anticipations can be count?
ed upon for realization. Wc place these
viows before our frieuds because it is re?
freshing to indulge in expectations that
ure hopeful, lively and sanguine. If
others have faith in our future, let us !
not ourselves be wanting in that givat ?
element of success. Enthusiasm, faith,
energy -those are the triple forces thu'
will work wonders for us.

General Jordan, mid Others:
BAJUJAOCA, June 20, JL?lO.
CUBANS: When I decided to com.) to
your country, in order to assist you in
conquering tho tyrauuy of the Spanish
Government that has so long oppressed
you, ? took the. supreme resolution to
die with you, should fate decree that you
were to be vanquished by that enemy,.}
now tho only power in our America that
is fighting for 'be maintenance of des?
potism and tyranny. Favored with tho
command of the Eastern State by the
General-in-Chief, I will endeavor to dis?
charge that honorable nhargo if you will
assist mo by your valor and decision,
already BO well-known, and if your
worthy chiefs will co-operate, we will
soon be on th? road to victory. The
sympathie.-} inspired for your cause with
the peoplo of North America are great.
I cnu assure yon that I am but tho fore?
runner of other generals of that nation
who will some, accompanied by thou?
sands of soldiers, whose oui}' wish is to
be at your sido and to participate in your
perils and glories. It is with deep feel?
ings of pain that I loam that many, mis?
led by falso representations, arc far from
us with tho ouomy. May they repent in
time and return to my side, where, by
shedding their blood iu the defence of
their country, they muy yet bequeath an
honorable name to their children. If
they do not act thus, they will be the I
victims to their short-sightedness, for
the liberty of Cuba is now an accom?
plished fuct. Yes, Cubans, the people ?
of tho United States are decided to como ,
in numbera to break your fetters. Yon j
will soon see the coasts surrounded by,
American vessels, bringing thousands of !
valorous, men resolved to drive tho last j
soldier or partisan of ibo Spanish Go-1
verumcnt from this beautiful country.
Cubans', confide in rac as I confide in 1
you. Let U3 hasten to fight the enemies j
of your growing liberty, and your efforts !
will avail. Viva Cuba! Viva nil free |

General-in-Chief.
BARAJAGUA, June 22. 1809.
To the mobilized troops of Cuba, del
Cobre and Palma Soriano: Two great ex
peditions, with arms and provisions,
have reached us. The Southern General !
Jordan, accompanied by Francisco Ja- j
viere Cisncros and many valorous and
intelligent soldiers, havo arrived to assist
us iu driving from our soil the hated j
Lion of Castile, who, although bis
power here is expiring, yet hesitates to
cross the seas. Many of yon, ignorant |
of tho purport of a revolution which
aims ut independence, aud deceived by ,
those whoso intention ii hereafter to im?
pose enormous taxes, which they are ,
now levying in the shape of blood and
produce, still remain in the ranks of the
opposite party, to the shame aud dis
grono of future liberty; nevertheless wo !
foster thc hopo that when undeceived I
and repenting you will rush into our
arms, that we may stiugglo together and
so make good tho wrongs that you ?
thoughtlessly have done to the cause of
the republic. Mobilized volunteers, let j
us forget thc past. Come soon, so that ;
we may break tho bread of peace and 1
then fight united against the defenders
of a lost cansa Mobilized volunteers, j
away with slaves and masters. Vira the
new-comers! Viva the Republic of

Thc New York Journal nf Commerce
says the National Labor Congress have
made a great blunder in opposing the
immigration of thc Chinese. This paper
remarks that Chinese immigrants are
destined to pour into this country and ,
furnish a living refutation for ?ill time of j
the foul slanders heaped upon that in?
dustrious race, and upon those Ameri?
cans who would now befriend them by
giving them work nt fair wages and the
fullest protection of law. Whero is the
Kuow Nothing party now ? And where,
in a few years, will be the National Labor

"Tun COLORKD TROOPS FOUGHT No

bas exhibited his inability to control tho
Southern elections in the interest of his
carpet-bagger radical friends, tho latter
manifest a disposition to drop him. A
while ago it was fashionable to credit
the negroes with about all the virtues,
and hold them up ns shining marks for
the imitation of the "white trash." But
Tennessee and Virginia havo been lost to
"loyalty" through tho apathy or inability
of tho colored brethren; and a corres?
pondent of a radical paper proceeds re?
morselessly to "smash tho ebony idol."
He says tho negroes will steal tho nails
out of the hool of a boot. He also says
that their moral condition is lower than
in slavery, there being no now check on
illicit connection. Religiously, there is
likewise a deoadenco; and upon tho
i whole, in his opinion, the race is going
to the deuce at something higher than a
12:40 rate.

A special dispatch to the Charleston
Republican, dated Columbia, August 25,
Bays:
"COLUMBIA, S. C., August 25-2 P.
M.- A detachment of the State consta?
bulary force has gone to Anderson anti?
cipating trouble at that place. . The pre?
sence of tho Investigating Committee of
tho Third District seems to have aroused
strong feeling, and there is fear of an
outbreak. The Governor is determined
to provide fully against it."
The Anderson intelligencer, of the same
date, makes no reference to any difficul?
ty, and wo aro inclined to regard the
whole statement us au exaggeration- j
perfect "bosh." Referring to the as- ?
sembliug of tho Investigation Commit- .
tee, tho Intelligencer relates the following:
"We bavo heard a good joke ou the
radical members of the Investigating
Committee, now in session at this place.
A gentleman from the country was sum?
moned to attend before this august tribu?
nal, and give evidence concerning out?
rages and frauds in the late general elec?
tion. Ho appeared in due time, and was
interrogated in the usual style, and
among other questions the following was
propounded: "Did you ever see any
Ku Klux in this County ?'' To which
our friend responded emphatically,
"Yes." At this bold admission, the
members were highly elated, and their
faces beamed with delight, for it was a
singular fact that all tho other witnesses
bad failed to disclose such valuable in?
formation. With anxiety in his coun?
tenance, the irrepressible Chairman
eagerly pursued the question, and asked
the witness where he had seen the Kn
Klux ? Imagine tho consternation and j
dismay of these worthy individuals when I
the response came, "In the circus?"
alluding to a burlesque representation of
tho notorious Klan which thc witness
had seen in Stouo A' Murray's circus last
fall. It is said that Joe Crews wilted,
Small (colored) rolled his eyes from the
ceiliug to the floor, and Mclutyre pro?
posed immediate adjournment, in order
that he might display his handsome (??
person upon thc street."
SHOCKING TRAGEDY IN MONROE. -A j
young lad}', named Mary Cunningham,
aged about twenty-three years, daugh?
ter of a widow lady, and most reputably
connected, died from poison on Sunday
night, in the town of Monroe, under
very distressing and somewhat niyste- i
rious circumstances. The young lady !
had horno a good character uutil re- j
cently, when letters were found reveal
ing a liaison of long standing with a
young man in thc town, who-;.- name
we have forgotten. These letters were
written by her to him, and gave, with
disgusting particularity, tho details of
au abortion which she had procured on
herself, and in which she boasted that
she fooled everybody, even her mother
and the doctor. The existence of these '
letters caused much comment, and it was !
expected that they, with other evidence, j
would be placed before the grand jury,
aud that the young lady would be iu
dieted for tho shocking crime. She ex-1
pressed a determination to commit sui
cide before sho would go before the ,
Court. Thc mother also is said to have
declared her desire that she should die
before making such a disgraceful ex?
posure. The letters wore pronounced
forgeries, and tho iuuocenccof the young
lady was asserted in the most .solemn
manner by ber and her mother. It is
proper to say that the physician who
attended her at thc time of her alleged
abortion, and at the time of her death,
has conclusive evidence that the charges
were trno and tho letters genuine. On
Sunday night, about midnight, her
mother raised the alarm that her
daughter was very ill, and when Dr.
Young arrived shu was iu a dying con?
dition. A cup containing strychnine was
found on the table, with tho dregs of a
cup of callee. She died in a few ino
nieuts.-Athens Runner.
CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE ON THE SITUA?
TION.-The New York Herald, comment?
ing upon the reported fact that the Chief
Justice has written a letter on the South?
ern political situation, says tho fact
shows there is a tower of political
strength in Mr. Chase's name. It says: :
He has not hesitated to say that uni?
versal amnesty should go with universal
suffrage, that tho disabilities of the
Southerners should be removed, and that
the wounds of our civil war should bc j
promptly healed. No man, perhaps,
lins had a better opportunity or is moro j
capable of forming u correct opinion of
the present condition of the South and
tho temper of the people. Ile bas been
a great deal in that section of the coun?
try since the war, and his judicial circuit
extending over a considerable portion of
it, ho has necessarily become well in?
formed of matters there. Thc conclu?
sion he bas come to, then, that universal
amnesty should bo granted and tho
wounds of tho war healed for thc good of
tho whole country as well for that of the
Southerners themselves, ought to have
weight both with the administration and
Congress. There is no doubt thc senti?
ment of tho people is with bim. They
do not want to see tho Southern States
remain uurestored, disorganized, and i
nuder military rule for tho purpose of
helping any political party. On this
subject Chief Justico Chase shows that '
ho is a statesman of broad and liberal
views, and there is no reason to conclude
becauso bo entertains them, or has even
expressed them, that he has taken such
conservative ground for the purpose of
reaching tho Presidency or to interfere
in political matters..
Information has reached Washington
of an attack by Indians on a mail-rider
and his guard in Arizona, whilo on the
routo with the mail from Prescott, July
17, which resulted in tho killing of two
soldiers, the severo wounding of tho
rider and the loss of tho mail. The latter
contained a large amount of valuablo
matter.

TIME FOU MATRIMONY.-Among the
ancient Germans, than whom a finer
race never existed, it was death for any
woman to marry beforo she was twonty
years old. I3y tho laws of Lycurgns, the
most special attention was paid to the
physioial edncntion, and no delicato or
sickly women were, on any account,
allowed to marry. Dr. Johnston, in his
work of "Economy of Health," says
that matrimony should not be contracted
until thc first year of the fourth septen?
nial on tho part of the lady, nor before
the last year of the samo in tho case of
the gentleman. In other words, the fe
malo should be at least tweuty-ouo years
of ugo, aud tho male twenty-eight years.
Thc doctor says there should bu a differ?
ence of seven years between the sexes,
?it whatever period of lifo thc connection
is contracted. There is a difference of
seven years, not in tho actual duration
of life in the two soi os, but in tho stami?
na of the constitution, tho symmetry of
the form and lineaments of tho faoe. In
respect to carly marriage, so far as it
concerns the 6ofter sex, for every year at
which marriage is entered upon before
the age of twenty-one. there will be, ou
an average, three years of premature dc
cn3', more or loss apparent, of thu corpo?
ral fabric.
A PKETTY PICTURE.-The Washington
correspondent of the Baltimore Gazette
thus sketches what he saw, a da'- or fcwo
since, in the Treasury Department:
"The rooms were generally totally va?
cant. In ono I saw a brawny negro
clerk, 'cutting capitals' on clean sheets
of papor. Ho was flanked by a couple
of white ladies, who wore adding np
long columns of figures, and at his back
was a lamo white 'inesseugor,' who was
holdiug in his only hand a tray bearing a
glass of ice water for his 'friend and
brother.' lu another room were a couple
of while clerks and a colored sister, all
very busily employed in disoussiug the
'new order,' called the 'deduction' law."
It is n plcasaut thing to note bow
many radicals are beginning to get the
light of a little reason. Tho other day,
Governor Palmer, of Illinois, who
during the war was a Federal Geueral,
and almost tho equal of Durbridge in
brutal atrocity, made a speech, in which
he announced his opposition to the fif?
teenth amendment, because he held that
it was an infringement upon the right of
the State to decido tho question of biif
frago for herself. This is the argument
<?f the Democracy, and they have never
advanced any other. We shall wait now
to see whether the radical press will te?i
him, as it so frequently has tho Demo?
cracy, that the .States have no rights.

CURIOSITY OF THE ECLIPSE.-Tho Ha?
