The disadvantages which we are' now .laboring nader iu South Car o li un aro certainly aredt. The taxation imposed upon the citizens of South Carolina are unequal and heavy. A multitude of new and unnecessary offices have been ated-so nie to harass out people; and all tending to eat out their substance. The affairs of the State .nre ,manngod in tho Spirit ?i a ' decided parlieauship. The interests of the' State aro made to yield to the iu teros ts of party. State officers, in many oases, become ?etorious epeou lators in the bonds and stocks of the State. The standard of the State judi? ciary has been lowered. And, to oap the; climax, wo have a legislativo body, with honorable exceptions, openly and flagrantly corrupt; a body whose votes ara bought and sold; where scarcely a m casu r o of private or public character can be gotten through without the money , being paid down for the price of its pas? sage; a body where honesty is at a dis? count, and rascality at a premium. And these, be it understood, are the fruits of the rule of that party which claims to combino in its i mm ac u lato and elevated self all the improvements and all the vir? tues of a progressive agel And yet, in spite of all these disadvantages which ace here recounted, South Carolina is improving and prospering-not because of the pres?ht rule, but in spite of it. And she will continue , tb grow stronger and stronger-owing to the energy of her sons and the resources of her soil until she gathers the power to sweep away all tho "political brushwood" that radicalism has heaped np in her way. And thus we come,to consider our needs. What we want in public affairs is what we regard 'desirable in private affairs. We want a cheap, wiso and economical management. We also want a full do . vejopment of our resources. We want the accession of numbera and capital from abroad. We want a Stato pride that will give dignity to citizenship. We want intelligence and honesty and dis? interestedness in our public men. And, satisfied that these conditions will never be fulfilled under the present regime, we deem it a patriotio work in every proper way to seek to supplant it by a better rule. And this brings US to consider, in a general way, how may this bast be done. In State politics what is the plan where? by we can secure to South Carolina a good, honest and wise administration? Wo repeat the policy foreshadowed in previous articles-to unite in solid column upon a liberal Democratic platform all the elements opposed to the present "rule or ruin" party, and to eliminate from the canvass issues that have been settled. The details of our programme should be left to future developments. But this we may say now, when the parties come iuto Court, let the caso bo made np and let the issue stand thus: Economy vs. extravagance-honesty rs. corruption -low taxes vs. high taxes-the rule that will give full scope to the development of the resource** of the State vs. the rule that depresses, paralyzes and retards tho general prosperity. Upon the issue be? ing thus joined, let tho witnesses be called; let the case bo argued and tho verdict left to the popular tribunal. And,' unless wo are much mistaken provided the prosecution does its duty the verdict will be for the plaintiffs. We turn aside for a moment to refer to the unhappy condition Of the Winns buio News. In vain we havo made the .amende for a supposed stain inflicted by the PBXENIX upon its new banner or new horse-just as you please. Our soft answer does not turn away its wrath; it nurses this wrath to keep it warm. It? weekly issue comes to us filled with its terrible sarcasms and taunts and general self-complacency. It has PHONIX on the brain, and wo think it will do its brain good. It confesses that it is unfit for business; and we hope that it will soon recover its equanimity. Observe this presumptous idea: "The serenity and composure of the PHO??IX is admirablo, but, nevertheless, perhaps, it will not again attempt its gamo of misrepresentation, by way of belittlement, a seoond time." No danger of "belittlement;" no, not at all, for the News now looms up before us a prophetic seer of the first magnitude. Concentrio, for it "sees dearly the mean? ing und logical consequence of fixed facts" -eccentric, for it flies off at a tangent, it is beginning to weary us, so wo leave it "wrapped in the solitude of its own originality." ? .? ? The Unionville Times concurs in the proposition of eliminating from our State politics the question of negro suffrage. ? < ? ? ? ? A considerable number of Swedes i?2 to located in Mason County, Mo., and more coming. ^Aearn fi?m aj^njjj&ei|aii jjfe okr aog quaMtance t&t ht?; Si reoeWf^ B fcttef fr^GenerJ x^At^eefe .worein ht alTOf^witfe^uolf fe^in*? to^h^poaiy tiou which lie bolds in the estimation of old bosom friends. He affirms tbat the good of the country is what he bad at heart, and claims that whilst he is po? litically flam ned, Virginia is commended to adopting |hf *ery-olaa?oi4cUaa and ^6'r^^.o"^,>^???tion, which he two years ago saw and stated was in the way of the inexorable logic of events. So far as we aro concerned, in view of General Longstreet's past services, we have no word of censare for the "old war-horse," and cheerfully conoede to bim the same honesty of views th?t we claim for our? selves. To say the most, if faults he has committed, let the mantle of a gene? rous charity cover them. We had time yesterday to reply but briefly to the question of the Winnsboro JVews. These are oar views more folly ex? pressed: The issue that is made with radi? calism in Sonth Carolina now is outside of the subject of suffrage. That matter has certainly been settled in South Carolina. In the reconstruction scheme forced upon Sonth Carolina, this question was left to the decision of a majority of the voters; that majority consisted of ne? groes, and n&furally unqualified suffrage was the result. In the last Presidential canvass tho * reconstruction schemo of Congress, with all its incidents, was for? mally put upon its trial before tho coun? try. We opposed it, and our views re? main unchanged. But thc election of Grant made Congressional reconstruc? tion "an accomplished fact" in South Carolina. Hence, wo must now remove tho question of suffrage from the pre? sent politics of tho State, and make tho fight with radicalism upon more favor? able grounds. Those grounds will be found abundant-even after the elimina? tion of the suffrage question. So SAY WE.-Tho Boston Cotnmon rcealtli says "nearly that on tiro section (tho South) is now in' danger of relaps? ing into rebel rule." To which tho Bos? ton Post responds: "If this is tho result of tho eight years' ascendancy of tho Re? publican/party, with all the power and patronage of the country at its disposal, it pr?sents a sorry*5ccT5unt of its'Bteward ship, and should givo way to wiser and moro- faith fubser vants." - The effort ol' John Quincy Adams in Massachusetts is to put tho Democratic party upon a lino of victory and not of disaster. Tho effort of G. H. Pendleton is to do the-Same in Ohio. The object is the samo, though tho issues may bo different. All Democrats can at least unito upon this-opposition to radical? ism-and this is cement strong enough to hold the party together. ' THE FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT.-It may be almost conceded, s;>y8 the Now York Afars, that tho fifteenth amendment will not bo confirmed by the requisite num? ber of State Legislatures, and tho proba? bilities aro, therefore, that the question of suffrage will bo permitted to remain with the States, from which it was the intention of the framers of the Federal Constitution that it should never bo transferred. A YOONG CAROLINIAN IN VIRGINIA. We learn that Wm. Vincent, of South Carolina, a student at General Lee's College, in Virginia, has won tho privi? lege of gratuitous educution in that in? stitution, he having received the highest honor in all of his studies. NEW SECBET PonrrioAii OKOANI/.AXION IN MASSACHUSETTS.-Tho Salem Observer, in an article on tho political situation in Massachusetts, asserts that there is "a secret, powerful, fresh and insidious ?l?? ment" at work in tho politics of that State which claims to bo based upon tho strength of 50,000 votes, and which will operate in tho field without much re? gard to party politics or to prohibition. It refers to tho Crispin lodges and simi? lar workingmen's organizations. Tho Observer adds "that labor questions are becoming of vast importance in this eountry, and tho organizations of labor? ing men aro becoming constantly more numerous and influential. Ordinarily, in Massachusetts, sido movements like ! that of the Crispins would not amount I to mnch, but under existing complica? tions thoy may exercise considerable in? fluence." It is evident that the Repub? licans in Massachusetts aro in a heap of trouble; and now that tho cordwainers are deserting them and organizing leaguos upon their own hook, it will re? quire no little finesse to enable them to retain their ascendancy in a State even j as strongly Republican as Massachusetts. Tho labor movement is no doubt grow? ing in strength all over the country; but what those who are sincere in it. have to fear is being sold out body and soul by some unscrupulous leaders on the evo of an important election. \c T ' [Nero York Tier aid.

I And first of ?Ul. upou matters of na? tional policies, although they do not enter this debate, yet it is proper for us to propose what v? deem tho wisest course to steer. In my j nd ment, oar defeat io the last election substantially settled the reconstruction and negro suffrage controversy-much ns"we* mayf dislike the decision. There is no way abort of revolution by which it can be reversed certainly for fonr-and, consi? dering the complexion of the Senate of the United States, now the effective go j vernment of the country-probably not for ten years, at least. This insures, at any rate, a fair trial of universal, unqua? lified suffrage at the South; and even when its failure is ascertained, it is pro? bable that all moderate mon will agree that no sweeping measure, of disfran? chisement would be expedient. The barbarian ballot then should be regarded by a wise parly aa no longer . legitimate subject of discussion. Ii hhs passed from the"realm of debatable questions, ana should not bo classed io tho cate? gory of fact*. Argtim?nts for and against ita adoption were odmissablo last autumn; but now they are ont of place. We cannot advocate or help it. We must accept it as csa of the elements in the pro! lem offered for our solution, and address ourselves to that as affected by this inseparable modification. ' THE OOORSE OF TBTJE WISDOM. As things actually stand to-dny, what measures will best .serve the general wel? fare? This, gentlemen, with great defer? ence to difference of opinion, seems to mo the only course open to us. To act otherwiso would resemble the wisdom of a general who was beaten in battle which he had joined, iu order to cover certain points should, after tho victori? ous passage of his opponents and occu? pation of the disputed territory, rally his army anew, on tho sume battle-field, and thero fight an i mn gi mt ry foe, while ho leaves all behind him to the unop? posed progress of his antagonist. Let us leave such strategists to bang oft' their big guns at empty woods and waste their ammunition upon thc debris of battle? fields, while wo press on to assume a new position full in tho enemy's front, whero, when WO have restored our lines and re-united our ranks, successful bat? tle may yet be fought and redeeming viotory won. In this spirit, we would say to our former fellow-citizens in the excluded provinces: "Come into the Union; stand not upon tho order of your coming, but como at once; when you are in, and we can aot as fellow-citi? zens once more, wo will meet together and consult upon future measures." This, gentlemen, in brief, is the spirit which, as it seems to me, should animate our action upon past issues; for the pre? sent and the fatnro are very important in theso days, and will allow us scant time even to celebrate the funeral rites ovor oar dead past. Eternal aotivity is the price of party life, and the road be? hind is strewn with carcases of tho fac? tions which could not see that in politics a dead principle is a mere prejudice, ? nauseous to the people. Vague declama? tion upon natural rights or wrongs, whether white or black, female or other? wise, no longer delights a people that is being gradually taxed out of house and home. The man who finds it daily more difficult to find his children bread, will relax his anguish that the negro has a vote; the most passionate lover of his colored kind may recognize a fellow creature iu a Southern planter, if they both agree t hat tho price of cool is an outrage, tho duty on iron a swindle, and the tariff an abomination to bo abolished. In truth, it is high timo that, after some twenty years of a refreshing season for ; the national soul, wo .should take a short term of attention to thc public body which needs it badly enough. To HE EDUCATED AS A JOURNALIST. Wo learn that the Faculty of Washington College, Virginia, of which General Leo is President, has determined to give free educatiou at that institution to a number of young men, who intend adopting the profession of journalism. Every Typo? graphical Union in the South will be sl? owed to SQlect8ome youngman, who shall] oe not less than fifteon years old and able to enter thc lowest class, and send him to the college. There he will be received and educated gratis, but will bo required to work ono hour in each day ht thc printing trade iu tho office of the college newspaper. On yesterday tho President of the Au? gusta Typographical Uniou {received a letter from the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Washington College, in? forming him that the Union would bo allowed to send on rt student. A meet? ing of the Union will bo held in a few days for the purpose of selecting a suita? ble young man for tho scholarship. [Augusta Citron ida and Sentinel. The Pope is very fond of punning. Complaining recently to a Frenchman ol the chango evidently about to take place in French policy toward Rome, the Frenchman replied: "Your Ho?iues? may be assured, despite all appearances, that Franco is still the oldest dnughtei (fille aineejot the ohurch." The Popt answered, smiling archly: "I do no doubt it, my son; but you known since the days of your great King Louis XI\ thero is no pireainee (Pyrenees!"

For s ove- 1 ral years Sanoho Sanders, colored, has 1 officiated os preacher, ,only absenting himself while serving his country iu the I Convention of 1863, and then in the j House of Representatives. Unelo San oho, as he ie-eaHed out there, has wielded- | up io a sport timo back a .wonderful. in- 1 fluonce, both politically and religiously, ' over his brethren of color-in fact, lead? ing them wheresoever-it pleased bim. But alas! Sanoho was like a fish out of water in the Convention, and ditto in ' the Legislature. Humors of his stupid? ity in tue House, of his employing his i time os a legislator in learning to -write, < and of many other things unbecoming a man of whoso wisdom they had enter? tained the very highest opinion, came to the ears of his constituents, and his po? litical influence began to diminish. Tho colored people mix up politics and re? ligion to snob an extent that what affects one of their nnmber as a politician, ne? cessarily affects him as a religious man, and vice versa. Hence, when Sanoho began to lose prestige as a politician, he also began to lose prestige as a preacher. Out of his flock an opposition party was formed with ono Lee Sanders, co? lored, preacher likewise, as its shepherd. Feelings of bitterness were soon engen? dered, resulting as wo have learned, pre? vious to the burning of the church, in actual strifo between the respectivo par? tisans of Sancho and Lee. Carnal wea? pons on more than ono occasion wore displayed, and perhaps used. Only a few days beforo tho church was burned, wo have been informed that throals wero uttered by some of Saucho'6 party, that Lee Sanders should not preach thero; whether that threut contemplated the extremo mensuro adopted wo leave it to the public to say. To Us, taken iu con? nection with the differences existing be? tween the parties, it seems to be tho most plausible version that eau be given to the whole affair. We have at some length alluded to this matter, for fooling thut tho credit of tho white citizens of Chester was at stake, wo have used every means in our power to arrivo at the truth, and now we give tho result of our investigation to the public. Tho Savannah Republican, a Demo? cratic paper, says: "In his speech accepting the nomina? tion for Qovernor of Massachusetts, Mr. John Quincy Adams enunciated the prin? ciples which the Democracy must adopt to achieve success in the next Presiden? tial election. Tho New York ?Su/? (radical) says to him: 'Ii tho party will cordially accept his views on national issues, and will present a candidate that fairly reflects them, then the Republicans in 1872 will have to bring out their strongest man, and throw into the canvass their bottom dollar, or give up all hopo of victory.' "Tho philosophy of Mr. Adams is simply a recognition of the facts as they actually exist. He docs not see tho wis? dom of righting battles over again which havo once boen fought and conclusively decided. To any longor combat tho re? sults of the late war, including recon? struction and negro suffrage, ho knows to be as bootless a struggle aa it would have been for General Lee to havo re? sisted the Union armies after they had hemmed him in on all sides at Appo? mattox Court House. Mr. Adams does not require Democrats to yield up any of their opinions ns to how, in their judgment, these controversies ought to havo ended; but only to aokuowledgo the undeniable fact that they havo ended in a particular way, and then, like men of common sense, to govern themselves ac? cordingly. "Air. Adams is tho first Northern De? mocratic candidato for a high position to break ground iu favor of the Southern view of party policy. We shall seo how it works in the election, and wo predict that if radicalism in Massachusetts is not put to rout, its grand army will be so badly crippled that it will not bo able to stand another campaign." Tho Charleston Courier, on the sub? ject of immigration, says: "The people of this Statoaro prepared to meet every honest and industrious im? migrant, with an open hand and a warm welcome. "He will lind hore ample scope for his energies, and an ampio roward for indus? try and virtue. "Ho will find in tho prcsenco of hun? dreds of his countrymen, living exam? ples of what thrift and perseverance may accomplish. "These misrepresentations are not the least of the burdens which we have un? der radioal rulo to bear. "But this, in tho face of facts, cannot last forever. "And we look forward to the time when European sentiment will recognize tho South, as she is, and will do justico io her people and to their institutions. .11 wo ask is a fair and open field." A young lady, who affected a disin? clination to matrimony, wroto upon a pane of glass somo verses expressive of her determination never to enter into the holy state.

Almost totally in lotive since that time, tho explanation given mo is, that while the Dons are car? rying ont a concentration in the Eastern Department for an attack on Jordan, he liasL employed the opportunity for a movement to the West. This cononrs frith the Spanish rumor that tho force icar Colon was being followed np by a large body of men, and leads one to be? lieve the positivo assurances of some hobans, that a great event- ie in progress in the Department of the Weet. I have good reason to' assnre yon that, whether til this be true or only part of it, a large proportion Cf Qusflada's army is on its cray along the backbone of the island in the direction of Cardenas. The in? tention of this movement, some Cubans leclare to be a serious blow in the direc? tion of tho Vuelta Abajo; but whether tho blow they speak bo really designed ar not, I can inform you with safety that the object is to givo the insurrection a permanent footing, in one form or an? other, on the railway communications of Havana. Jordan is hard at work making sol? diers. A few eeoro of English-speaking Cubans who have been eduoated in the United States, have been kept by him under his own special training in the several forms of service, from adjutant to drill sergeant. These young men liavo shown great aptness, and, in the course of a few weeks, many of them were lit for assignment to duty as train? ers of the patriot ranks. A wonderful proficiency lins already been acquired by the ragged poor fellows who struggle for Cuban liberty; and trained now in company, regimental and brigade rna ocunvoring, they have become, in their disinclined enthusiasm, a very effectivo bo^y of men. Accustomed to fire, by the experience of their irregular warfare, with pivot-men who served in tho Army of the Potomac, and sergeants and officers trained under Jordan's eye, the commander of these men says that he can meet any corresponding number of Spaniards'?n a stand-off fight with per? fect confidence. An old. anny officer of tho United States army os he is, bo does not relish tho running mode of warfare; and now that he hos brought h?3 roen up to tho standard of the soldier, ho propo? ses to meet the enemy on a fair field, front to front. With this view he hos drawu his force between Valmaseda and his line of retreat, and is said to be far advanced in tho Eastern Department. If Valmaseda be defeated, his retreat nay be cut off ned his ultimate Captare ac? complished; but if Jordan be defeated bo may carry ont on an open line of re? treat his experience under Beauregard at Corinth. Suoh ara his views. ' % ONE OF THE BEAUTIES OP RADICAL RE? CONSTRUCTION.-It is one of the beauties of tho reconstruction schemo that abso? luto power is granted to the pair of shoulder-straps who lords it over a con? quered province, and, at the same time, he is permitted to intrigue for a United States Senatorship. Thus Cunby sets himself up for Senator from Virginia; the swaggering Reynolds cuts and carves the political situation to suit himself in Texas; and Ames, an ignorant and inso? lent swash-buckler from New England, parcels ont the offices with an eyo to his own exaltation in Mississippi. Already the Virginia dictator evinces a disposi? tion to excludo tho conservativo mem? bers of the Legislature, and install tools of his own, who wero not elected. Knowing these circumstances, Grant was either wilfully or indolently false when ho promised fair elections in those States. Only thc vast preponderance of native-born votes will savo them. We note this ns a sign of the times-as an exposition of the fnroe to which tho ra? dicals have reduced our republican sys? tem of government.-New Fork News. Our fur traders and trappers in fitting ont hero, find Ayer's medicines ono of their most profitablo articles of trafilo. Around Slavo Lako and the wild regions of the North, tho Indians know their uses and bavo on abiding faith in them, They say: "Ayer-great medicine-cure sick man," and his remedies, for tho dis? eases from which they suffer, will often bring forth their stock of skins even quicker than wampum, rum or tobacco. Savages aro not fools, if they aro nnso phisticnted in some of the arts of civili? zation.-Montreal Pilot. The King of Portugal, in his specoh to tho Cortes, which closed its sessions recently, gave assuranco that tho Govern? ment was making every effort to restore the financial equilibrium and revive pub? lic credit. The augmentation of the ro vennes from imports and the diminution of tho expenditures of the administra? tion would command tho attention of tho ministry, and the iudepundonoo of Por? tugal would be preserved.
