In a truly representative government, every popular election should accurately represent the popular ohoico. Other? wise, the D?mocratie form of govern? ment becomes not only a farce, but a positivo evil., .'In this rattier, a decided reform is de? manded-in. this country. According to tho waylin "which nominations are gene? rally m a do, under the workings of the party machinery employed, it is not un frequently the case that unworthy or in? competent men are foisted upon the voters, who have to accept them as a cholee of avila.. Too often is it the case that a party fails to have its best repre? sentatives in the field, and as a conse? quence, it fails to excite the enthusiasm and arouse the energies of its support ors, as otherwise ii would do. Ano the i consequence is, that incompetent men ar? elevated to places of trust and re? sponsibility, which they fail to fill eitboi to the advantage of the party or to that of the country. We believe in free institutions, but nc reflecting mind can fail to perceive thal important and radical reforms are de mauded in their workings in this conn try. When parties come to put good men forward, and look to the interests o: the'whole country, we shall breathe mon freely, and look with greater confident to what the fntnre snail bring forth Oertain it is that it is the serious duty ol good citizens; to take7 our publio aflairi out of the hands of corrupt demagogues and placo them under the control o wise, reliable, honest and effioient'dgents No higher duty devolves upon good citi zonBhip than this. The Baltimore Sun as will be elsewhere seen, contains so mi very discreet remarks upon this subject which it gives Under the heading o '.Primary Elections." Patriotic men o all parties may well be profited by th suggestions made. . WHAT THU SOUTH IS DOING.-Th Southern papers generally anticipate i cotton crop of about 3,000,000 bales coi ton, whioh, valued at $108 per bale, (sa; 455 pounds, at 25 cents,) will give $324, 000,000; also a oom crop of 285j000,00 bushels, valued at $230,000,000; and tb sugar, wheat, tobacco and other crop will yield $150,000,000 more, giving ii all a product of not loss than 8704,000, 000, which, with a population Of no over 11,000,000, will show an average c $64 per head, whioh largely exceeds tba of the Northern and Western Statet The State of South Carolina will thi year yield products worth $50?0G0,00C whioh, with her population of not ove 670,000, will show an average of $74.G per head. In any portion of tho Sout fine lands under cultivation can b bought at from $3 to $9 per nore,, whic in a few years will be worth five lime the purchase money. The climate is e> ceedingly salubrious, and offers no ii superable hindrance to the manual labe of the white man, as is proved by th fact that there are now no less tba 200,000 whites cultivating cotton wit their own hands. And if white men fa to famish the required amount of labe and tho negro turns out badly, there Koopmanohaap and his millions of Ch nose to fall back upon. To BK PROVIDED FOB.-It seems to t understood that Dr. Mackey must I provided for.

Their plane aro ma tu rod .wind their agent J&Ulfcrdu?iLl^ for j the State, whoao oooiety it is. Many orders could not oe filled tho past season, simply beoaase they were giren too late -when the soason for labor had opened in the North 'and North-west: and it is thou next to impossible to induce labor? ers to florae South, wages in these ranr kefe ruling at.so much higher rates than aro usual with .us. From November ^to March, w? go t all the laborers we oan expect, and orders to be filled must oome in early, as the probability is that tho supply will net be equal to the demand. For the terms upon which laborers are procured by the Immigration Sooiety, I would refer parties interested to the cir? cular recently issued by them, which has been published in many of-the papers of the State--copies of which will ba fur? nish od on 'application either to F.

"As snre as the Lord reigns," says Mr. Carlyle, "Ebb United States is rushing down to hell with desperato velocity. The scum and riff-raff of the world has got possession of the country, and no? thing can save it from the devil's clutches. Not, perhaps, a hell burning with mote rial fire and brimstone, but the wide, weltering, fiery chaos of corruption in high places, and the misrule of the peo? ple." "Prophetic sounds, so .full of woe." Tho life, the spirit, tho genius, of pure republican principles that this Govern? ment was based on, and that our fathers bequeathed us, has gone glimmering through the dream of things that were. The march of centralization is steady, but certain and sure. In tho language of Mr. Morrison, "like tho little stream that glides down .the face of the mighty rocks, gathering strength as it rolls along, flowing and joining some wander? ing current, it will become n torrent, leaping to the plain,..whore? mighty in its sudden increase, the cataract will tear down the barriers of nature, and deso? late the work of ages. Already the satraps and hordes of Government and State officials, in the name of the Go? vernment and States, aro at the vitals of the people, collecting revenues and taxes according to the maximum standard of their own interpretation, and muling their returns in the minimum letter of their warrants-political sardines, packed in the most oleaginous places purposely to absorb &11 they can, head and bruins dispensed with. The sound of the morn? ing reveille still can be heard, and tbe glisten of the bayenent seen, while de? tectives and constables, as thick us leaves in Val ?ambrosia Yale, roam over States that have been pronounced reconstructed, and soizo whom they please, without the shadow of a warrant." Aye, we are recklessly speeding over tlie national railway, without a single brake on to check tho governmental en? gine in ita mad career; sooner or later it must plunge off the track, involving the ruin and destruction of every republican principle and of this once great and magnificent republic. * Compon ii dem anet Rectifiera. EDITOR PHONIX : I'm in tronble, and come for advise; others are in the same fix, and the "club" have resolved, through me, to make known our woes. The sub? ject upon which our wits (!) have been expended-and, we own, expended in vain-is the recent order of one Mr. De? lano, who seems to bo Grand Tycoon of the anti-Maine liquor law, or something of that sort, in which be confidently as? serts that any one mixing drinks, or put? ting water in whiskey, is a compounder and rectifier, and liable to a tax of some indefinite number of dollars and impri? sonment ad libitum. So far as tho com? pounding is concerned, I have been ac? customed to have a mixture of brandy, sugar, water and nutmeg regularly three times a day for the last twenty-eight years. I must surely have been a com? pounder, but as for tho "rectifier," I plead innocence. I have tried to "tread the path of rectitude," os advised every Sunday by iny'preacher, and don't know but that path may lead to the peniten? tiary, tho words aro so alike, and the men who mako laws not being tho best grammarians in the world. On this point, I am in great doubt. Tho grave question is this: I have three ten gallon kegs fall, ono with good whiskey, one brandy and ono mean whis? key. Oan I put one gallon of water in the good whiskey, and then toko of that mixtur? thron gallons and add those to the mean whiskey, and out of the mean whiskey, mixed with tho three gallons of good whiskey, mixed with tho one gal? lon of water, take five gallons of water, two gallons of brandy and three gallons of bed-bug poison, mix those together, and kill a dog at fifty yards-said dog hoing given to nocturnal noises not con? ducive to sleep or pleasant dreams? Can I do this by paying tbe gentleman with n Spanish name a compounder's license? Can I? SUFFERER. Railroad men are looking with aston? ishment at a trank marked "llwortb, Kansas." least, imp^ bo the aim of party mt-ohinery tc* ob? struct, defeat, restrict within the narrow? est possible bounds, if not to exclude al? together. In France, the freedom of oleotions signified, until very lately, the li bor ty of voting icu tu? candidate whom the Government thought proper to no minute. With us, it generally signifies the li ber ty of voting for the candi da tes whom the politicians seo proper to nomi? nate. When the present French Empe? ror thought it desirable that his title to the purple should be confirmed by the popular voiee, the ballots -were inscribed "yes," or "no." Here, votors have gene? rally the privilege of a choice between two candidates. But the privilege ordi? narily extends no fnrther. Neither can? didate may be to the voter's liking; both may be positively objectionable to him. There is no alternative, however, bot that of not voting at all, or of "throw? ing away" his vote by casting it for some third person who has no earthly chance of boing elected. His freedom of elec? tion is, therefore, narrowed down to a choice of evils. This is the result of that party despotism whioh practically restricts tho popular choice to the candi? dates put forward by the party conven? tions. This, however, would not be so bad if tho conventions themselves wore free and untrammeled in their action: if they were in fact the deliberative bodies that in theory they aro supposed to be. Like the electoral colleges, which, in the Constitution of the United States, were designed to bo deliberative assemblages, but whose functions have grown to be merely ministerial, tho nominating con? ventions, made np for the most part of pledged delegates, merely meet to record tho result of the primary elections. It has been doubted whether, under present circumstances, tho electoral college might not as well bo abolished. With much greater reason may tho machinery of party conventions, in many instance?, especially of local offices, bo dispensed with. If the peoplo voted direotly for the candidates whom they wished nomi? nated, instead of for delegates, there would be far less room for manage? ment and intrjgue. There would bo no packing of conventions ii there were no conventions held. As it is, votors who attend the primary meetings of their party usually find their ohoice as much restricted as at tho more formal publiai election subsequently held. Thctiokets, with the delegates' names inscribed, are prepared beforehand by the politicians, who assume to forestall the action of the party and to parcel out the offices to be filled at their own good pleasure. The people are merely called in to give to what is douo the semblance of being done by their consent. It is the politi? cians, after all, and those of the smaller and baser sort, who delight and take pride in the successful manipulation of ward meetings, who wield the power whioh in theory belongs to the people. Hence follows most of the corruptions which disgrace our politice, tho nomina? tion of bad men for office, and the inevi? table consequences which flow from hav? ing bad, weak, or incompetent men in office. How shall the evil be remedied? Only by resolutely resisting and rebuk? ing the attempts of "professionals" at dictation. These remarks aro go?oral, and apply to all future timo. As long as the con? vention system is resorted to, the only possible chance of avoiding or even mo? difying the evil results is foe every toter to attend the primary meetings, as it is both his interest and duty to do. Ho will thus take part in making the tickets, and not merely endorse when the prima? ry .election comes (und which all should attend) the action of oolf-constituted managers by accepting, without a pro? test, the candidates whom they may pre? sent. If then he doesn't like the tickets which he will find printed ready to hie hand, let him make one to snit himself. If he is opposed to pledged delegates, lot bim vote for those who are un? pledged. But the more practicable and efficient mode appears to be that de? scribed in the article headed -"Purifying Nominations," which we published yes? terday, from a Pennsylvania paper, showing how successful has been the system of "those belonging to a party votiug at stated polls directly for the candidates, instead of voting for dele? gates in convention to nominate for them the candidates.". In Crawford, Lancaster and other Counties, full tickets, entirely in accordance with the wishes of the majority in regard to nu? merous officers, had been seleoted to bc voted for nt the subsequent formal elec? tions, the person receiving the highest number of votes for any given office being accepted as tho candidate. The people thus turning out, tho politicians and all their jugglery go for naught, aud in the cases referred to the nominations aro said to be superior to any heretofore known. Candidates thus nominated must feel a direct responsibility to the people, and not to tho politicians, whom, under our present system, they seem to be expected to serve more than any one else.-Baltimore Sun. The Columbia PUCBNIX states that Dr. A. G. 'Mackey has declined the profes? sorship in the South Carolina Universi? ty, to which he was last week olooted by the Board of Trustees. This is a sensible move on the part of the Doctor, and shows that he knows a thing or two, even if ho is not specially proficient in the scientifio branohes which he wac chosen to expound.-Charleston Netos. A dam having been built in Bock Biver, Illinois, a moral paper near by speaks of it as "our profane improve? ment." discussion about ni ?^.5) anc paten ndufted U raaf tan at tiro- lending f in Kentucky, arrives at con ftifinilar to those, reached by our? selves. ' We are -well sustained. The | ?ourtar-^oumal} says: "The Democratic party now stands Where marjy tm?tbor party h?B-Stood' be? fore it-u pon the i threshold of a pew epoch. The elements which compose it are various. The duties whioh oonfront it are complicated. None of the ?dd is? sues which were identified with its name | can be said to be directly before the ooun try. It always wan the party of internal j peace. It was never anything but trna tional party. Hence, its overthrow pro? duced domestic war, and, being unsalted I to war purposes, it could not regain its | ascendancy so long as the war lasted. The Republican party was the offspring I of the war-essentially a war party-and | it is, consequently, unsuited to tho re? quirements of pence. The war being ended, its usefulness expired, and but for the inflamed passions of the country, its power would have ended with its useful? ness. That whioh kept those passions alive, and through them kept tho war party alive, is passing away. It was no? thing mere nor less than tho violent ef? fort of the Democratic party to re-orgon? ize itself upon a lino of baitlo on which it had been signally defeated. It is for? tunate perhaps that it was defeated, for it could not have changed the complex? ion of the Senate soon uuough to render its administration of the government ef? ficient, and it is therefore not responsi? ble for the financial condition of the country, nor the reconstruction of the South. Before it re-enters the field as a contestant for the suffrages of tho whole people, all tho issues growing out of the war, and most likely the greater number of the issues growing out of reconstruc? tion, will be settled. We shall begin to experience their ill effects. For these ill effects the Republicans will bo respon? sible. The new issues thus brought about will certainly not bo negro suf? frage, nor uegro testimony; and if we should keep on deluding our minds with these, as the old-line WhigB deluded themselves with banks and protective tariffs, wo shall find ourselves unfitted for the situation which wo should be able to control. Mr. John Quincy Adams is right. Mr. Pendleton is right. The Wisconsin Democrats are right. Tho Southern States will bc right enough by the time wo get to them. Let us put our own house in order as we proceed, so that, when tho time comes for national union and communion, Kentucky may be united; and thus united, may take her plaoo in tho procession, not to fol? low, but to lead. "We propose to accept nothing that we can avoid.. But we clo propose, by a cool and silent observance of events, to so preserve our relation to the nationality of the party, that We shall be able to use everything that we may find useful to its needs. We do not regard the fifteenth amendment as an accomplished fact; but negro suffrage in the Southern States is an accomplished fact, and our Southern friends are doing just as we should do in their situation. If the-fifteenth amend? ment is not ratified, it will be an issue in the next Presidential campaign, and the Democratic party will make it ring the death-bell of radicalism. But, if it is ratified, the Democratic party will fight its consequences, not its existence; and other issues, relating to finance and trade, will occupy the .position of fore-figures. "No man oan prediot certainly six months, mach less three years, ahead; but we can discuss these possibilities frankly and confidently, for they are al? ready being discussed all over the South. It is worse than folly to blind ourselves to the present situation of affairs. If we would avert the dangers of contention among ourselves, and "third parties," and "new parties," we must meet them. Every line that we have written has been directed to the unity of the Democratic organization, taking a broad, national view of it, and it is matter of pride with us that the Democratic press of the whole country, excepting only our weak bro? thers of tho Democratic press of Ken? tucky, not alone approve what we have said," but Use it as Democratic arguments addressed to the people of regions which are supposed to be hardly so Democratic as Kentucky." VALUABLE INVENTION.-A Bristol, Ten? nessee, man has invented a machine for pressing brick, which does four times the work, can be built for half the mo? ney, and does the work better than any machine now known. The Camden Jo'unml suggests tho cre? ation of another bureau-a bureau to take the census of tho census-takers and assessors, and to ascertain how muoh they oost. A good idea. Michigan has the latest idea in tho way of a minorai spring. Its water is "hea? vily ohargod with electricity," and gives u deposit of gold. BE BEAUTTF?L.-If you desire beauty yon should use Hagan's Magnolia Balm. It gives a soft, refined, satin-like tex? ture to the Complexion, removes Rough? ness, Redness, Blotches, Sunburn, Tan, .tc, and adds a tinge of Pearly Bloom to the plainest features. It brings the Bloom of Yonth to the fading cheek and changes the rustic Country Qirl into a Fashionable City Belle. In the use of the Magnolia Balm lies the true secret of Beauty.

We commend the subject to all who desire to proonre a reliable class of laborers, and a class, too, Who will make ap for the State a citizenship good and substantial. F. W.

CRUMBS.-For the first time in more than six months, there was a failure of the Northern,.mail-a mis-connection at Greensboro being tho cause. We are in? debted to E. Hope, Esq.-who came by tho old "Bay Line"-for copies of New York papers of the 20th. Mr. Barry, of tho "Curolina House," has furnished the PHONIX. with a sam? ple of cobblers compounded from native Scuppernong wino, manufactured in North Carolina. Verdict-excellent. Tho Western Union Telegraph Com? pany have determined to materially re ; duce their tolls from and after the 1st of Octobor. This company is also matur? ing other plans for increasing the utility of the telegraph to the public-one of which is the sending of messages which do not require immediate despatch at a greatly reduced rate. A car load of colored excursionists from Columbia arrived in Augusta Mon? day afternoon, and Rpent next day in free and easy circulation among their friends, viewing the attractions of Augusta, and monopolizing the street cars. Samuel P. Matthews has been appoint? ed by Governor Scott Land Surveyor for Williamsburg County. Tba Charleston Courier complains about the irregular delivery of the PI?ONIX. The fault is beyond this office, as tho paper is regularly mailed. Dr. Joseph A. Jones has declined tho position of Professor of Chemistry in the University, as we are informed. A GOLDEN WEDDING.-To-day, Sep? tember 23, is the fiftieth anniversary of tho marriage of the Bev. N. Talley, of tho Methodist Episcopal Church, and Miss Amy Anna Potter. This venerated couple have been spared to soo several of their sons arrive not only at the age of manhood, but to bo distinguished orna? ments to the professions which they had selected. There will bea family gathering to-day-several generations being present to celebrate that uncommon event-a golden wedding. And, in this connec? tion, we cannot avoid publishing Burns' touching, appropriate and much admired "John Anderson, my Jo," with aa addi? tional verse by a gentleman, who, though ho seldom courted the muse, wielded a moat graceful pen when the spirit moved him. It was long felt by the admirers of "John Anderson" that something was wanting to finish it; this want is supplied in the last verse, and so exquisitely beau? tiful, and so akin to the original, that it seems to be Barns' own creation: "John Anderson, my Jo, John, When wo were first acquont, Your locks were like the raven, Your bonnio brow was brent; But now your brow is bald, John, Your locks are like tho snow, But blessings on your frosty pow, John Anderson, my Jo. "John Anderson, my Jo, John, We clamb tho hill thegither, And mouy a canty day, John, Wo'vo had wi ano anither; Now wo maun totter down, John, But hand in hand we'll go, And sleep thogithor at tho foot, John Anderson, my Jo. "John Anderson, my Jo, John, When wo havo slopt thegither, Tho sleep that a' maun sleep, John, We'll wake wi auo anither, And in that better world, John, Nao sorrow shall wo know Nor fear wo o'er shall part again, John Anderson, my Jo."

UKiyHB8iTX_op SOOTH CAROLINA.-AS we intimated in the PH<Btbx,' of tba 21st instant, wo are happy to learn that Dr. A. G. Mackey has promptly de? clined tho position to which.bewa* elect? ed in the University of South Oarolinn. The radical Board of Trastees who se : lected him to fill a scientific chair have been thwarted by the shrewdness of an ? old politician, who does not. intend to bo placed upon a shelf to monia'- in their keeping. In an act of weakness, they I concluded to make him a philosopher o? physics and astronomy, and thus rid themselves of one who desiree position and power in their political ranks. The newly chosen professor was sufficiently sharp to understand thia friendly movo ment and to know that tho education of thc political arena, with its shifting sands, was not adapted for fixed facts de? duced in the laboratory of science. In the former, his power and foreo and qualities are acknowledged; in tho latter, he is a cipher, no matter how high the appointees, jealous o? his political in? fluence, might indnoo him to belier? that they scientifically . graded him. Thc Trustees of the Univor^y h?vo received a well deserved blow from their political leader, by his refusal to accept position outside- of qualification; and coming from bini, tho Nestor of their party, as he is called, they have had shewn an example of plain policy. Let the Trustees take this hint for their own reputation and go outsido of politics for educational qualifications, as they have dono in the election of Dr. Joseph Jones to a branch of science, in which he has a European reputation; as they did also in selecting Mr. Hart to tho chair of mathematics. Let them fill the vacant chairs with like men, and the institution will sustain its former scientific reputa? tion. Let the State know at once through their action that the University is. not controlled by political prejudice; that it will rest as it bas hitherto upon literary and scientific merits, and its halls will be filled in tho approaching session with sons and wards of thos'o who revere the institution and Will neyer desert it unless it unless dishonored by these charged with its guardianship. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.-Attention is j called to the following advertisements, j published the first time this morning: Bricklayers and Carpenters Wanted. D. C. Peixotto & Son-Auction. Miss Lory-Dancing. A STITCH TN TIME SAVES NINE.-If you have a cough, do not neglect it; thou? sands go to an untimely grave by ne? glecting what they call "a slight cold." These slight colds are very insidious. They soon become deep-seated, and defy nil remedies. DR. Torr's EXPECTORANT will cure it. It can be had of any Drug? gist. 818 C Tbs Simmons' Regulator has been used so many years with BU cc ess, that no one afflicted with dyspepsia, colic, con? stipation, or any bilious affection, should be without the remedy in their house. The number of certificates from the most influential citizens folly establishes its rirtues. One says: "I think it the greatest medicine in the world." An? other says: "I consider it invaluable in sick heakache, as it has not failed to give relief in any instance." Another says: 'I consider it indispensable in ruy family, and will never be without it. ' See advertisement. S18J3 WHAT IT WILL DO.-Judge by what it has done. Heinitsh's QUEEN'S DE? LIGHT. It has eured a sore leg of twen? ty-five years stnadicg. It has .restored to health persons long diseased. It hos cured cutaneous eruptions, tetter, ?fcc. It hos cured the dyspeptic, of his com? plaint of long standing. It has restored to life the child supposed to bo dying. It hos produoed a radiant glow on tho female cheek. It boa invigorated the feeble and languishing. It has imparted vigor to the young. It has vitalized the decaying functions of age. It has puri? fied tho blood and invigorated life. It .lifts oared Lirer Complaint and nervous disorders. It has proven to be a great blessing to females. It establishes regu? larity of tho organs. It is the lamp of life and way to health, and erorybody should try a botte of HEINTTSH'S QUEEN'S DELIGHT. A14 Tf the ladies but knew what thousands of them are constantly relating to us, wo oandidly boliere one-half of the weak? ness, prostration and distressexperiencod by them would rani- h. James* Marsh, Esq., 159 West Fourteenth street, New York, says, "he has three childron, tho first two are weak and puny, his wife having been unable to nurse or attend them, bnt she has taken PLANTATION BITTERS for the last two years, and bas a child eighteen months old, which she has nursed and reared herself, and both . are hearty, sauoy and well. Tho article is invaluable to mothers," &o. Such, evidence might be continued for a volume. The best evidence is to try them. They speak for themselves. Per? sons of sedentary habits troubled with weakness, lassitude, palpitation of tho heart, lack of appetite, distress after eating, torpid liver, constipation, dia? betes, fcc., will find speedy relief through these Bitters.
