, ? A Sovel Plan.
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."

ter you

me, bot we mint noticing such things
now. 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

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.

A FEMALE REOULATOH.-Woman and her
needs. For complaints and irregularities to
which her sex is exclusively liable, UKIN TISH'S
QUEEN'S DELIOHT is recommended on tho au?
thority of wives, mothers and nurses, who have
tested its tonic and regulating properties, and
' know whereof they speak;" and also with the
sanction nf able physicians, who havo admi?
nistered tho QUEEN'S DELIUUT to their femalo
patients, in obstinato cases, with tho happiest
results. Almost all femalo complaints are
complicated with montai gloom and despon?
dency, tho gentle and la-ting exhilarating
effects of tho QUEEN'S DELIUUT is admirably
adapted to such cases. As a remedy for hys?
teria and montai depression, it has no equal
in tho world. Nursing mothers find it an ad?
mirable invlgoraut. It is highly satisfactory
that this preparation should prove so emi?
nently bone?cial to thc sex. Young and old
will find relief always. For salo by FISHEB A
