COLUMBIA, S. C. ..'4?r? ? ii-:-H Frtdty Koralny;, December 3,1869. A Worxl, tam ? PeUUcal Woy, to ?he Wm ar Knit* ?ad Uie LnfloaM, av nd to Thote whoso Verves) ?ff Bereit ?VB???? aro lyocatrd ia their Pockets. As we Lave before said, there is aa irreprenaibio political conniet or opposing forces in South Carolina. To the men and the m casa res that now prevail in this State, unceasing opposition will.be made, and should be made, until this Common? wealth-Endeared to tho sons of the soil shall emerge into the snn-light of better rolers and wiser laws. Not by violence most thia change be wrought-not by a polioy of prejudice-not by a programme of extremism, mast we move to this work. ' Not clinging to the things of the pest, we mast press forward and ase the new elemente of strength that lie before qa. Wo mast press the work of industrial development. Every dollar made by tho genuino Carolinian goes to make np that power wbiob is to redeem tho State. We most act fairly and justly by the freed? men of the State. Por liberal work give liberal pay.. For prompt services rot urn punctual pay. Concedo to bim all the civil and political rights guaranteed to him by lsw. Encourage bim in his edu? cation. Help him in his churches. Stimu? late him to good oitisenship. The eolored man ia here. Make the most of him. He is a voter. Ho wields a power for good or evil. Oar polioy towards him we mean,tho policy of the whites-should be Bimply fair, jost, reasonable-in flue, ? pqlioy of simple honesty. In this way, After a while, the influences that have succeeded, for party ends, in antago? nizing whites and blacks, may give way, and wo may secure in 8outh Carolina a co-operative action of all well-disposed and right-minded votera, on the basia of a polioy for the public good. Bat this ia not all that wo need. To relieve South Carolina from its present political incubus-from its unacceptable Legisla? ture-from its partial and inefficient Exe? cutive-from its crowd of blood-sucking officers-the opposition must remain firm, faithful and united. And here comes in our word to the class we have named the weak-kneed-the oringers and fawn? ers-the men willing to sell their birth? right for a mess of pottage. We mean those who, though opposed to the party in power in South Carolina, are yet willing to sacrifice principle for the en? joyment of the epoils of offioe. We moan those who cringe, and fawn and flatter the powers that be, to get their re? ward. We mean those who, to make money, are ready to surrender convictions and to sacrifice character. These oro thc enemies to tho cause of the opposition. These it is who give moral support to those disposed to embarrass, barrosa and injure the whites of South Carolina. These it is who bolster ap a cause that they should seek to overthrow. NJ ap? peal of ours will probably reach this class. But we may remind them of this: These times are not always to last, and where will they stand when, in the not distant future. South Carolina, redeemed and disenthralled, shall stand prepared to mark with honor the devotion of her trae, faithful and constant sons? For the sake of families and friends, let no South Carolinian so act now os to bring, hereafter, the blush of shame to cheeks that should be radiant with pride. The State is now under a rulo that is a rulo de /ado. We advise no factions oppo? sition to it. We advise that we seek to make it as good as possible. Men may even accept office under it with con? sistency and honor, provided they are called upon to sacrifice no principle and to violate no sentiments. But, at all times, let tim be borne in mind, that we are to pass from under the present yoke just as soon as peaceful agencies will allow. Of her true sons, the State ex? pects that she is to be rescued as speedily as possible from the spoiler's grasp. HOUSE OF BEFBESENTATIVES TO BB IN CBRABED.-Data telegraphs the Baltimore Sun that among the features of tho now censas bill, the committee will report a provision for increasing tho number of members of the United States House of Repr?sentatives to 300. By over-sight, the matter was not considered by the sub-committee, but attention has been called to it by the members of thc gene? ral committee. OH, How LOVELY!-Mr. Paul Gerard, brother-in-law of the Minister of Portu? gal to this country, will be married to? day, in Washington, to a mul?tres?, thc daughter of a rich Washington negro, who, for years, has kept a t>ort of low Congressional eating boase. Fashiona? ble society in the oupital is much exer? cised about the affair, but the radicals look upon the match os but another in? dication of the "march of events." Comptroller-General Noaglo's report estimates that $000,000 are necessary to meet the current expenses and other payments for the coming fiscal yoar. j Vti? RM?( Stat? feafeor 0?nw??U??. Th8i&M//i?m Ott, an Irish-American ; newspaper-edited with ?A?ilifcy--altbough an earaeflt advocate of tho intiwmU cf working-men, baa the following editorial on the subject of tho recent Labor Con? vention held bare. Thia is bold oomfort from a source where something different was expected. The Ceii is right: "TUB STATS LABOR CONVENTION.-The meeting of this body seems to hsve been nothing more than a kind of canons of the radical Legislatnre. ? public exhi? bition, in order tb influence the next election. Now, whenever a movement ander the disguise of labor, is made with such an opon faoe of political trickery and debauchery stamped upon it, this paper abhors and denounces it. What the laborer needs is an increaso of wages, and not sn inorease of politics. An inorease of politics means an inorease of offices, on inorease of salari?e for doing nothing, an increase of taxes and a de? crease of wages. Now, this State Labor Convention, so-called, is just so much arrant political knavery and humbug. There was not a genuine laboring man in it who was not a political jehu. It was all cut and dried, and cooked np, as a cort of side-dish to the last session of tho experimental Legislature. With it we have nothing to do. The radicals sent it np as a kind of vidette-balloon, so that the colored vote oould distinctly see who were the faithful, hog and hominy, crowded in tho basket. But the poor fools filled tho maohino so full of bad gas before it was clear of the ground, that it bursted and dumped the tadpole crew baok into the dirty puddle. "The wreok of tho balloon will be sold at auction at Frog Level, in this State, and tho attention of the Legislature is oalled to tho investment." "LOOKINO BiiUB.-Our contemporary, the Columbia PHOENIX, tokes a gloomy view of things, and is of the opinion that 'the agricultural interests of this State have received a blow' from the recent Labor Convention which 'will be felt another year.' " The above extract from tho Charleston News furnishes an instance of the well known logical fallacy whioh consists in drawing a genoral conclusion from a single incident. Because we suggested the probability of damage to our agri? cultural interests from the spirit of the recent Labor Convention, the News forth? with suggested "that its contemporary, tho PHONTX, looks blue," and "takes a gloomy view of things." We have only to say, that our remark referred to, was based upon what we were led to presume would be the action of tho Convention. The Convention did better, aod we are free to say, that we regard the final propositions of the Con? vention as moderato and reasonable enough. We can never object to any arrangements looking to the honest ful? fillment of contracts between employers and laborers. CHA.UA0TERI3TI03.-One of the news? papers tells a story of a North C troli nian who, like the most of his country? men, was not willing that anythiug per? taining to his property, his Couuty or bis State should lose io tho estimation of strangers for tho want of an impor? tant Darno. Ho was hailed by a Virgini? an from tho shore of the Roanoke while ho was floating with the current in a small flat-boat: "What have you got in your scow, and whero are you going?" He jumped up. and, assuming a proud beariug, answered: "Stranger, this ves? sel is the Rebecca, and I am her captain. Our cargo is fruit and furniture, and we are bound for Plymouth and a market." "What kind of fruit?" "Persimmons." "What sort of furniture?" "Hoop poles." The North Carolinian does not stand alone in his vanity. A Liverpool match vender calls himself usually a "timber merchant on a small scale," and almost every dram-shop keeper iu our cities pretends to bo an importer of liquors. Do You WANT HEALTH?-AND WHO DOES NOT?-If so, bo advised, USE DR. TUTT'S SARSAPARILLA AND QUEEN'S DE? LIGHT, the great alterative and blood purifier.

THE ALDERMANIC ASSAULT.-The grand jury in the State Court returned a true bill yesterday, against T. J. Mackey, in? dicted for "assault with a concealed wea? pon and intent to kill."
