' " Wi' Vf>t^ illili'' T --? ' . ?WS?S?K5S G?L?JM?B?AV WE Wednesday Konong, No vember 24,'?S Til? Ihr-mt l<?glsli?tt?rt!-Am Analysis. This body assembled on yesterday. Wo propose to engage in a brief analysis of it-an anal jaie conceived in no spirit of mare prejudice, bat in the spirit of tooth end soberness. This assembly, like the existing State r?gime, is the fro it of the reconstraction sob erne of a radical Congress. It was Imposed npon the White people of the State, snd naturally il waa accepted by the colored people. Wim tm exception of the few Democra? tic members from Anderson, Lancaster, Lexington, Ooo nee, Piokens, Spartan burg and Horry, the Legislutnre is com? posed' of persons elected exclusively in the interest of the freedmen of tho S uto. What, now, are the elements that compose this body? First, we have the D?mocra? tie element, without strength at present. Secondly, we have the white (native) ra? dical element. Thirdly, we have the white adventurer. Fourthly, we have the colored adventurer. Fifthly, wo have the nativo South Carolina colored man. These are the mixed elements that make up this legislative melange. Bear? ing in mind that the intelligent men, composing the Democratic vanguard, hare no influence in the body, the ques? tion arises, What influence controls in this body? The answer is plain: It is the white adventurer-generally known as the carpet-bagger. He it is that has the legislative tact and tbs necessary sharpness to wield the Bceptre, and he sways it with gentle power over tho less informed and the confiding colored men. Under the pretonco of advancing tho in? terests of the colored people, the keen and astute politiciens from the North, and especially from New England, are fast making their fortunes by sucking the blood from our people. So far as the Legislature is concerned, we look with hope only to the Democratic members and the nativo Sontb Carolina colored men. Those members of the present Legislature who oro hero for n time white and black birds of prey and of passage-these, we deem especially hos? tile to our interests. With violent pre judicesagainst everything connected with Sooth Carolina as she was, they will use their power to the detriment of the State until they are driven from their places. Bat of the colored members of the Le? gislature, we expect something moro. They are natives here. Here, they expect to live and die. They must know that the present order of things canuot long last. KnOwing this, it becomes them so to legislate, as not to sow now tho sceils of futuro retaliation. The solid inte? rests of the State concern them. The futare of their race should suggest to thom the policy of conciliatiug those elements in this State, which, though in abeyance now, must ultimately huvo a Controlling influence in South Carolina. The present Legislature-tho whole State Government-rests upon a peculiar basis. But it is tho Govornment ile facto of the State. As snob, we do not desire to embarrass it in its impartial and legi? timate operations. When it does what is right, we shall chronicle its action with pleasure. When it does what is wrong and unfair and oppressive, we shall at? tack it with all the weapons that inde? pendent journalism afford to men, yet free enongb to say what they think of public affairs. BLUE RID C?E KAI M? O AD.-A preliminary meeting of the Directors of tho Blue Ridge Railroad Company was held in Charleston, on Friday last, and on Sat? urday a meeting of the stockholders was held. These meetings were held with closed doors, and no reporters were allowed to be present, nor was any ac? count of the proceeding? furnished for publication. It has, however, transpired that the directors declared tho eonlnict of Orisswell, Patterson & Co. to bo forfeited, and elected Wm. McKinlay, colored, and Judge James L. Orr to lill tho vacancies caused by the resignation of Mr. Geo. S. Cameron and the with? drawal of Mr. J. H. Holmes. Tho Board of Direotcrs is now as follows: J. W. Harrison, President; T. J. Robertson, Henry Gourdin, William Gurnoy, G. A. Tronbolm, James L. Orr, William Mc? Kinlay, J. H. Jenks, and James M. Allen, Gov. Scott and Mayor Pillsbury are directors eat-officio, and as they repre? sent nine-tenths of the stock,they control the company absolutely and entirely. No moro need be said on that point. The oompany.it is understood,will ask for no upproprition this session, unless the price-of State bonds can bo run np to tho neighborhood of par. PROSPERITY OJ? SOUTH CAROLINA.-It is gratifying to note tho evidence of prosperity among the peoplo of South Carolina. During the prvst year they have paid over 82,500,000 into tho inter? nal revenue department, besides $1,000, 000 Stato taxes, while their debt has been so far reduced that it amounts to but one-sixth of that North Carolina. This cheering exhibit is due mainly to the abundance of the vice and cotton crops of tho past year, tue vol no of whiob will reach, if it does not exceed, $25,000, 000. - Baltimore Sun. ? > ?m&Sm, ?mk H? ' MB. EXCITOR: I gato yon on yesterdcy a baaty outbn* Of my flrat day?? visit to tuis\?odern jfrouder^tpe Mao^n Fair. Lot aa toke a second'day's trip, and try tho ?ruin that ia published to roh ?Very halNhotrr, froe? 7 a: m.; tilt Wrj^ a. nr., I believe. Thorn it stands at the depot, twenty platform cars linked together, and two passenger coaches, with an engine in front and one ia tba rear. The crowd soon begins to assemble, and in bnlf an honr the platform cars are so packed that men are aotoally standing between them on the bumpers. I counted tho oar I happened to get into, and its passengers numbered over 100. The others were equally aa closely packed. Several per? sons made efforts to get into the coaehes and were denied entrance. I immedi? ately went to see the cause of thin, and learned that Oov. Bollock, and Delano, and Forney and the other ?hoddy friends, were there snugly ensconsed, with quite a number of official boot-licks, while other invited guests, Gen. Hampton among the number, wended their way to the grounds in private or hired carriages. By the way, rnmor says the K. K. K. 's waited on Forney that day, and his stay at the grounds was short, and next a. m. he was found wanting. Well, our immense train of human freight presently set off to the grounds, rolled out a mile, stopped and quietly set to work collecting tickets, and before we reaobed the four milo post, it was 1 o'clock. The railroad company had pre? viously advertised a round trip for a qnarter and sold tickets. The crowd was so great not one-fourth the visitors could buy tickets, and when the fare was hoing collected no change was given in return; so that in the majority of instances a quarter wa? taken going out and the same returning, and sometimes a half dollar each way. Talk about the Yankees! come to Georgia, if you want to see Yankeeism perfected. Roaching the grounds at lp. m., in a trice almost our 2,000 passengers were off tho train and rushing to the ticket office and single gate of entrance, that was oponed about three feet ooiy, and there fastened so securely it could not be moved. In this gate stood half a dozen burly policemen, who, instead of going to work receiviug tickets rapidly, tried in vaiu to keep back tho current that pressed heavily dowu upon thom, and iu a most frantic manner brandished their shrllelahs, curs? ing and swearing liko madmen. On pressed the rushing crowd, and presontly women fainted, men shouted, children cried, policemen cursed, and your cor? respondent squeezed out of the crowd, jumped the fence, and away he went into the building, only escaping arrest be? cause of the confusion at tho gate. Just here let me ask, eau any sensible or in? sensible mau for a moment conceive why that gate was the only entrance for such an immense crowd? The uext day another entronco was opened, and the crowd should haye demanded a dozen such. This o. m. things look n little moro in place, though topsy-turvy is the role jet. Another stroll through thc building is amply repaid by tho myriad of articles displayed. Amongst other very beau? tiful specimens of book-bindery, etc., I lind some of the work by Messrs. Walk? er, Evans Sc Co., of Charleston, who took tho premium at our recent Fair. You remember, rumor had it that this work was doue in New York. Ono of tho brm nut here assures mc it was all the work of tho Charleston house, and by no means extra specimens of what they can do. Near by stands tho case of shoe?, etc,, from Air. Vogler, of Salem, N. C., who also took a premium at our Fair, and will get it here. Pardon a re? port of a short conversation with this enterprising gentleman. Ho told me that last spring bo begged tho idle women and childreu, black and white, to pick and dry all tho blackberries they could fiud, and bring them to him, and he would borter clothing, shoes, or grocories for them. They took him at his word, and during the season brought him in so many that he sent them in barrels, by tho four-horse load, to the railroad, eighteen milos from Salem, shipped them to New York, and sold them ont at ten to twenty cents per pound, and during tho season he realized over twenty-five per cont, upon a salo of ?10,000 worth of dried blackberries. Why cannot some of our enterprising merchants pre? paro this winter for suoh a shipment next spring? Our facilities aro every way e .[rmi to his, ami I think there are quito as mn'iy idlers in South Carolina as in North Carolina, if they can only be put to work. Leaviug tho shoe-case, wo stroll on, and presently find ourselves among the Held crops, and what do you think was tho amount on exhibition? A singlo bu? shel of Norway oats, for which $7.50 I were asked. Why not have asked $10, ?at once? These oats wero from East Tennessee, and not in that entire build ? ing could there bo found a bushel ol corn, wheat, rj-o, oats, or barley, from I anywhere, except tlmtsole bushel of Nor ways. Now, the crowd is so great around, that they themselves become objects ol at tract ion ; for here is talked French, there, German, yonder, gibberish, and right into ruy ear, a gaunt looking spe? cimen of humanity cries out, while eye I ing the same object I was, "Wall, that'* good idee; I don't foo why that hadn'l oughter do." "Wall," thought I, when aro you from? Labrador, I suppose. I Ho passed on, and so did I, out into the "grounds," and as tho crowd secmec to bo making for thu "rink," (where doe! thc word como from?) so I drifted in, and ns about to enter, was accosted "Ticket, sir!" Hallo, said I, pay again' Yes, haul he, and ont cam!; my quarter T ryajnined in awhile, and soon tired o the exhibition. Out I went, and hearing great shouting in tho "rink," returnee in about an hour, to toko another glance when another, "Ticket, sir," was yolle< as-sme; and opoto^ihqniry, found tba MM tiekets bad gone op now ? backed ont, and mosing SfS/b?tf to iay ' began ytt?nkwtf?Ml?*iiwW?) reanr a tjateh-pe be enclosure of . Grounds most corer over 1001 I had rumbled all over it. F< o "few drope" would not damage j the inner-man, I approached one of the rosetted gentlemen and asked where Jj could get a drink? Not on the grounds, sir, was the ready reply. For, said he, we have positively forbid any liquor being sold on the place. Sorry for it, thought I, and walked on. Within twen? ty yards of where I met bim, there was a door, out of which he came and into which I wont. There was a coautor, la for beer, fruit and vnrioos nick-nacks, asked for a glass of whiskey, and in two seconds, the tumbler and decanter wero on the counter. I took my drink, and thought I would hunt np the official aforesaid, and give bim a little informa? tion. I did meet him and told bim of my lock, when he expressed surprise. But, alas! for his attempt at official ig? norance, I smelt the "sp??its" when I first asked where I could go and do like? wise? Really, this big Fair is a big game, at which many parties are playing, and whore everybody will win, but the planter. In my next, I'll tell you some? thing more of these tricks. Somewhat wearied with sight-seeing, I stroll listlessly through tho gay crowd, and observe tho trains rolling up. One of them is loaded with boilers, wagons, plows, minerals, boxes and every con? ceivable article, just arrived from Cincinnati, by way of Baltimore. On Tuesday, it was announced the books were closed, bot now, to-day, (Thursday,) they are again opened, and all kinds of articles received, even to a cow or two, from the city of Macon, belonging to some one who, doubtless, thonght he or she could beat Mr. Peters in tho contest, and after making a survey of tho cattle exhibition, had gone off for their pet cow, to deprive bim of tho premium. Such a game could scarcely havo been played in Columbia, last week. The other train had mottoes aud flags about it, and soon disclosed the fact, that it contained tho shoddy representatives of tho North, who had cost tho State of Georgia over $100 a head to bring them to tho Fair. For, be it known, that Bio Exccutivo Committee, or the Express Governor, had chartered an exlm iauuy train and started it from Atlanta to Wash? ington City, for Forney <fc Co., and tko train was only stopped nt Lynchburg Virginia, because tho track of tho uext> railroad did not suit the wheels of the train. I wonder if tho Executive Com? mittee of tho South Carolina Agricultu? ral and Mechanical Society will ever L o guilty of such monstrous toadyism ? Yours, &c, VISITOR. ?-???-? Mit. EDITOR: In tho PHOENIX, of yes? terday, appears a communication from the Chairman of the Committee on Books and Stationery, statiug that they (the Committee) "saw on exhibition some very handsome specimens of book bind? ing, blank books, ?fcc, but had no juris? diction over them, they having been im? properly entered on some other cata? logue." As I was the only book binder exhibiting, besides Messrs. Walker, Evans ?fc Cogswell, I presume thc hand somo specimens referred to belonged to me; and it seems very strange how they could havo been improperly registered, as I entered thom for competition, as I thought, in the regular form. They wero also reported by tho regular re? porter, takeu from tho books iu which they wero entered, and published in the list of entries. I feel confident that my work, on exhibition at tho Fair, was superior to any exhibited. I do uot wish to censuro tho Committee, as they no doubt did their duty according to in? structions; but there was, evidently, carelessness somewhere. E. R. STOKES.
