Oar friend, of the Wiriisboro News, oan certainly lay elaina to originality of views. He suggests a novel mode of mooting and combat ting the i ufluenco of radicalism in the country. He admits that it is important to supplant this ie flueuco, bu^ practically considered, we doubt very much if bis plan would work. The Neu* Baye: "There ie, indeed, a vast body of ?in organized voter? dissatisfied with radical rale end desirous of a chango; bat the majority of them would welcome a change from within, last aa cordially aa from without the radical party; and if our statesman would seriously consider thia fact, they would start to overthrow the radical boase, by joining tho better Krtion of it and dividing it against el?, iast?ud or standing aloof on so called Democratic principies. They would attack it, not ab extra, but ab intra. The present constitution of the United States 8enate, with bat eight Democrats in it, and the present constitution of the Supreme Court, and even the present constitution of th? House of Represen? tatives, dearly indicate this as the more Eraoticablo method of bringing about otter government."' Now, tho amount of the matter ia this: The Netos proposes to defeat the radical party by allying itself with tho better portion-thereof. This may bo a very aouto and astuto mode of politioal action, bat we confess that we cannot seo it. To join the enemy in order to defeat him, wonld be a new military movement, un? known in the annals of warfare, ancicut or modern, We are disposed to think that joining the radical party in order to influen?a it for good, would be quite as novel in political warfare. There is, in? deed, more of danger in the movement than oar ootemporary may imagine. In? stead of carrying the enemy's strong? hold, ia it not possible for the party con? cerned to bo themselves entrapped? Our cotomporary might pass through the Aro and keep even the hem of his garments unscathed. Bat how would it bo with the mass? Haman natnre, at best, is weak, and "evil communications corrupt good manners." It was the saying of some distinguished Irishman, "that the best mode of avoiding danger was to meet it right plumb." Is it on this principle that our ootem? porary holds that the best method of de? feating radicalism is to join it? The question for the News to consider is this: What influeuco could it exert by the step suggested? The programme of the News, in our judgment, is wrong in principle and worse in policy. We op? pose radicalism both in its mild and severest features. This, too, is "de? cided." Decidedly IU U1.1I. ."-At lmou !. ?I^t ,1. Our cotemporary of the Winnsboro News claims that it is "decided" in its views. We are not disposed to deny it. We regard it ''decided"-but decidedly wrong. It is "decided" whether ex? pressing a preference for "Grant Con? gressmen," or a penchant for ham, turkey and shad-thus showiug that it is alike tor "fish, flosh and fowl." But really we read with interest the views of our cotemporary, for they come to us with the freshness of what is original, and tho novelty of what is peculiar and unlooked for. We are, indeed, free to say, that we admit the force of much that our co temporary says, whilst in the main wo do not recognize the practicability of its views or the propriety of its programme. At least, our cotemporury hus the merit of following his principles to thoir logi? cal results. We are fer freo speech and free thought. We shall, therefore, give onr cotemporary's views. His policy has this merit: It is decidedly wrong: "A decidedly middle policy, then, is the proper solution of tho real problem, which is, to harmonize the above-men? tioned classes, in both Federal and State politics. "We would suggest doing so by a mid? dle policy, therefore, and that quickly. And as tho means of so harmonizing I them, wo would suggest, first, tho name 'Conservativo Republican.' Wo like it for its honesty. It is boroo by a re? spectable body of men, war natural po? litical allies, in Cougress. It doesn't moan 'progressive Democracy;' it means 'Republicanism.' Is that decided, or ambiguous? Second. We would give an equitable representation ou our tickets, State and Federal, to black men. if that i*n't another decided opinion, we are no judges of such things. Third. Tho true policy of tho South, so long a; she is suspected and hated, being passivo and non-committal to either port iou of the conquering Northern people, (for they all both hate and suspect us,) eau best be maintained, for tho present at least, by runoing Graut Congressmen, which, if wo do, wo may elect all four of them, and possibly, by our middle course, elect our entiro State ticket also. That's plain, wo oro sure. That's decided. And, moreover, wo aro of tho opinion that, if the citizens* party of the Charles? ton News means anything less decided than the three propositions above, it will provo a veritable fizzle." -?-0-O-?

We whipped them fellers so often dario the late war, that wo dook feel like wasting stationery on 'em now. I look apon tho couoem ivs a "Grand Condoli? Society,'' end was gtad to '?sto that the fellers who got the mest whippin. made the moat noise in the Bennion. I think that's right, I like to ?oe 'om sympathiziu together under a common misfortune. I aident think, however, there waa muoh decent propriety in holdin their meetin in pnblio, and espeoially in Louisville. I should have recommended the Mam? moth Cave or Cape Fear, or some other qnist retreat. Bot every man to his no? tion. We've got no Grand Army down here to reunion, and ara peaceably at tendin to bisiness; but I'll bet two' dol? lars that Louisville concern wont knock another chip off oil? bot With this pintor! remark, I dismiss the subjekt. There's bigger things attraoting our at? tention. If I had time, Mr. Editor, I would make a few remarks to Mr. Grant about his Executive impudence. Taint the first time since we whipped 'em, that these fellers have been try in to make our niggers believe they dont belong to ns. They've got some few in the Alabama Legislature of that opinion now, and they are playin the devil generally. Now if Mr. Grant cant write a better message thau that part about Georgy, he'd better abdicate. I read it to Tip, an i he said, "Why, Mas Bill, surely, shorely the man's a fool. What's General Graut got to do with Georgy?" I despise to see a man always puffin his segar into other peoplo's faces, or pokiti his UOBO into people's bisiness. I reckon old Bout well or some other old cuss is to blamo for it. Says he, General, them fellers down there in that Georgia cage are get? ing along too easy. I think you had better stir 'em up a little-give 'em a few puuohes under the ribs just to hear 'em growl. All right, old fel, we'll growl for your amusement now, bnt at some future time-D. V.-and the weather permit? ting-and the boys a iittie bigger-and a few more foundrys built-we'll talk this matter over. Hurrah for Bob Loo. I'd like to have seed him and Joe Johnston walk into the ru-nion wita their regi? mentals on. Oh, my country ! some of them fellers would have been ruunin till yet. I think I see Pope iu about two miles of Alasky. But I've no time to enlarge, Mr. Editor, for I only wish to say to you about that letter, you will please renig, or put some other nsme to it. I don't want to rob the author of his laurels, or to got notorious about what he done, or what I didn't do. This kind of thievin has become quite common, and there's no law again it that I know of. Mr. Shakspouro said it was high larceny, and stuuliu one's parse- was not to bo com? pared to it; but os the lawyers say, it seems to bo a case of "dam'em obsequee iujurione!" I can therefore only entrent certaiu gentlemen (?) to tote their ??wu skillets. BILL AR P. P.

WniTTEMORE's DEFENCE.-Theexpelled oarpet-bug Congressman, Whittemoro, has published a letter defending his sale of the cadetahip, and announcing him? self us a candidate for re-election. He says that recent developments hare sat? isfied him that bia resignation waa a hasty and unnecessary step, and adds: "I do not hesitate to say that tho Re? publicans and Democrats regard the whole transaction aa unparalleled in hast? aod severity; and furthormoro I repeat that General Logan himself, the day af? ter my resignation, did not report a reso? lution of censure instead of expulsion, that he did not believe my intention wrong, that ho hoped I would be re? turned to Congress and that ho would be the finit man to welcome my return. "Such has been the chungo already, which, of courso, brings a little balm to tho wounds infiioted. Tho hope ex? pressed by a very largo number of the members of the House that I may be returned to Congress is the evidence that, while they were pressed into a scorning acquiescence in this hasty action of a few Hotspurs, they are still openly friendly, and they express every confidence in my honesty nud integrity in thin whole mat? ter. I shall como again to my constitti enta, whoso confidence I have never vio? lated. I shall ask them to give mo their votes and send mo back to my place, ruado vacant by no dishoneat action." WE KNOW ALU ABOUT THEM-The South Carolina papers put themselves to tho unnecessary troublo to assure the North that Whittemoro, tho disgraced carpet-bagger, is in no souse a represen? tative of tho people of tho Stato. His stat,is, and that of all the adventurers living on negro credulity in the South, aro well understood at tho North. No? body with a lovel hoad supposes that Whittemoro is the lawful successor of Callionu, or that tho soul of Jefferson animates tho breast of Porter. Evon the Northern radicals despise the carpet? baggers. They aro useful to carry out radical schemes of oppression and plun? der; but your heavy radical leader would uo sooner have a cai pet-bagger at his table than ho would have Senator Revels.
