Sunday ttorniufr, August 14,1870. Bourbonlc VB. Progresa I vc Democracy. The Sumter News replies to our oriti oism upon its political attitude and ito virtual playing into the hands of the radical regime, by opposing the reform movement. As we have little taste for discussion and lesa timo for unnecessary writing, we shall reply once for all. The Sumter News seems to entertain this opinion, viz: that Democracy consists, and consists only, ?D opposing negro suffrage. It does not seem to compre? hend that it means much more than this-that it is based upon moro compre? hensive ground, and embraces many other ideas. It is true that Democracy believes in Caucasian power, and pride, and prestige, and magnifies tho senti? ment of race. But all this is not incon? sistent with A common-sense view of facts connected with negro suffrage. Just as eertain as that the sun rises, is the fact that negro suffrage exists; and if it does exist, it is simply sensible for ?B to make the most of it in good faith, and to Beek to control it in the interests of good government. The Neics is simply a Democratic Bourbon, and rep? resenta that oloss-now very small, wo believe. In our judgment, tho Demo? cratic party, in a national point of view, is the patty that we must look to for the -reform that is needed in our national affairs, and for tho impress that should be put upon tho Government. But we hold that the South Carolina Democracy and the National Democracy should no longer be run in tho groove of auti negroism. Lot tho negro question be deomed settled, and let us move on to other issues. These aro tho sentiments of the most influential Democratic jour? nals in tho country, and these uro tho sentiments that the popular voice will approve, because based on common sense. "We suggest, therefore, to the News, that because one embraces tho re? form movement, it docs not follow that he lias cut loose from the real, tho ac? tive, the progressive Democracy of the land. He has, however, out loose from "Bourbonic Democracy," and from this we think it well to cut loose as promptly as possible. As for us, wo are moving on-opposed as ever to radicalism-but resolutely bent upon tho public good. We commend to the News what a Demo? cratic journal-the Chattanooga Times says on this subject. Referring to thc opposition to negro suffrage, the Times says: "The Democracy are engaged in a more important aud more popular en? terprise. They aro trying to rid thc country of the vast financial burdens that repress its energies, crush its in? dustry, and retard substantial prosperity. They are endeavoring to get rid of a tax list, longer and more porteutious than the Levitican laws. They aro trying to rescue the oouutry from tho curse of an army of tax-gatherers, that out out its substance aud steal what crumbs are left. They aro tryiug to rescue it from the incubus of a political shin-plaster monopoly, compared to which tho old United States bauk was innocence and harmlessness. They arc trying to undo the radical villainy of a protective tariff, enacted for the beuefit of a few monopolists, by compelling the whole body of the people to pay them tribute. They aro trying to remove reckless dishonesty aud incompetency from the administration, and to re? establish constitutional, ccouomicnl and honest government. They arc tryiug to restore liberty, peace and prosperity to every quarter of America, nud right aud justice to every inhabitant thereof. "In these endeavors, tho Democracy can appeal to the sympathies of all men who prefer freedom before despotism, aud right before wrong, with a fecliug of confidence that tho appoal will not bo made in vain. Upon this lino, their march is onward to certain victory. It is a march in which Lhere is no time to be lost in tho fighting of buttles that arc over. Those who cannot keep step iu the ranks of the grand army that marches to the call of the future, will certainly find themselves abandoned with thc fossil relics scattered in thc rear. "Such aro the sentiments of tho lead? ing and. most influential conservative journals throughout tho country, and they express tho thoughts of tho groat majority of the American people." Let tho Sumter Neics decide where it will take its stand, It must march on with us, or it will find itself abandoned with "tho fossil relics" scattered in thc roar of the army "that marches to the call of tho future." A word more, aud we shall no loDger turn aside to chal? lenge the political course of our Sumtor cotemporary. Let us say that we have moro faith in tho white raco of tho South, than to entertain tho fears which seem to givo direction to the policy of the Sumter Neics. That race, wo hold, can? not bo affected in its tone and integrity by tho concession of political aud legal equality to tho colored race. The white raco of tho South do not require auy legislative aid to bolster up their strength. God made the white man what ho is, and He made tho negro what he is. Put them ou equal ground, as respects legal aud political equality give the same opportunities to eaoh in the race bi"B?0E,.and-Wo lear not the re? sult. Th? wbitcfaan'U irttong enough not to begrudge'the negro the ..opportu? nity to show all that lie can; fairly win, and to re a oh tho1 highest civilization of I whioh he is capable. We have no fears for the result. As in the future, so in the past, we expect to find* the whito race illustrating and exerting a God given supremacy, and wo are willing to lose this white power, if it cannot bo won by genius and virtue, rather than by force and partial legislation. This, now, will perhaps explain to thc News how it is that a white man, fall of faith iu the raco to which he belongs, may yet consent to the political and legal I equality of tho colored race, and yet not abdicates those sentiments of prido in raco whioh God has established, and rea? son and experience approve. The reform movement is in the line of a progressive Democracy. It acknow? ledges that negro suffrage exists, how? ever unconstitutionally, and proposes to extract therefrom as much good as pos? sible This is what every sensible De? mocrat moy well subscribo to. Again, tho reform meeting se?ks to array against a corrupt and ruinons regime all the elements of opposition that can be mus? tered. That would bo good Democratic policy also. Hence wo maintain that method. Party considerations, nor con? siderations of any patriotic kind, can sanction tho unwise opposition of the Sumter News to a wide-spread aud gene? rous effort to relievo the State from the territblo incubus that rests upou it. In good faith and in courtesy, wo suggest to the Sumter Neics to review its course. Tho following appointments have been made for Judge Carpenter aud General Butler: Columbia, Tuesday, August 1G.

TUE SITUATION.-Wo may expect to hoar at auy moment of the capture of Strasbourg by tho Prussiaus. It is quite evident that the Freuch garrison can never hold out against the force which is marching upon it. At Motz, however, the contest will be moro severe. Tho Emperor has returned to that point. [ and has had long consultations with Marshal Bazaine. Tho troops available for thc defence of Metz and Nauey do uot seem to exceed 230,003, a force ut? terly inadequate to tho task, unless the old boast of tho French should turn out to be well founded, namely, that a hand? ful of mon could hold Metz against a vast army. Meanwhile, the movement of the Prussiaus upon M?lhausen ap? pears to indicate a formidable invasion of Fiauco at a poiut where fewer obsta? cles would have to be encountered. Tho mistake which was fatal to Napo? leon was evidently delay. It appears from tho letters of our correspondents that the Prussiaus fully expected to bo attacked a fortnight ago, and were much surprised at the French Generals losinj . their opportunity. Tho movemcut oi the Prussian armies at tho closo of last week seems to have takeu their foes completely by surprise. Napoleon will have good cause to remember tho result of bia procrastination to thc last day of his life. In Paris all is excitement and agita? tion. The first act of the Corps L?gisla? tif was to pass a vote adverse to tho Ministry. This seems to have astonished M. Ollivier, for the Deputies have shown uo sigu of hoing opposed to tho policy which culminated in a declaration of war. They approved of the course taken by the Emperor, and did as much to forco on tho war as Napoleon himself refusing even to listen to M. Thiers' pro? test against it. Tho general feeling iu tho French capital is unquestionably one of eagerness to retrieve tho evil fortunes of the day. But this very sentiment may bo ominous for tho Emperor. To him will bc ascribed the disasters which havo befallen thc national arms. The substitution of Marshal Bazaine for Geucral McMahon may not appease the irritation of tho people, These are the hours wheu Napoleon's faith iu his "star" must be well nigh dead. Evon tho Pope turns his back iq ?on him. "God will provide for me," His Holi? ness is reported to havo said, when he was told that tho Imperial forces would bo withdrawn from Rome-"May I never Bee tho French troops agaiu!"' But whatever may becomo of the Emperor, it is impossible to suppose that the Freuch pooplo will cousent to peaco until calamity after calamity has con? vinced them that they havo fouud au enomy against whom they cannot con? tend.- Nato York Times. PLUCKY.-When tho Popo was otlicially informed of tho proposed departure of tho French army, his only reply was, "God will provide! May I never seo French troops again." MB. EDITOR: I have received several messages sud unofficial communications, intimating that the Republican party would meet tis in discussion if wo would permit them. If they will send me an official communication from their party, they will reoeive a proper answer. I am ready to arrange the terms of discussion with any one authorized to meet mo on the subject. The gauntlett has been thrown down; we call upon the cham? pions of the Republican party to take it up; it cannot bo done by proxy. E. W. SEIBELS, Sec. and Treas. Ex. Committee. A STKAM Pnouan.-We clip tho fol? lowing from nu exohncge: General Wade Hampton bas upon one of his plantations in Mississippi, a steam plough which was manufactured nt Leeds, England, and is now in practi? cal operatiou. It consists of two porta? ble engines, whioh are so made that they run themselves without tho aid of horse power, and so entiroly dispense with horses. These engines are placed at op? posite sides of a field, and by moans of wire cables draw a gang of ploughs from ono sido to the other. The ploughs cut the soil much dooper and quickor, and, laying asido the cost of tho machinery, at a much less expense than tho horse ploughs. They plough, on an average, about 35 acres per day. Tho engines are also useful in other work. Only n few days ago one of them came down from tho plantation with six wagons in tow, aud drew them back loaded with lumber over rough roads thut would have required 24 horsos to do the same work. CANADA LEFT TO HERSELF.-According to a Quebec correspondent of the New York Herald, tho British armaments iu Canada are being removed, and the 14,000 British soldiers aro to be scut homo. England turns ovor ber barracks, magaziues, fortifications, Arc, to Canada, which is expected hereafter to defend herself. The noon gun from the fortress of Kingston, which has nevor failod to salute tho meridian sun since 1812, was discontinued on tho 4th instant. It is supposed that England, believing Caun da uutenablo for defence by any military force sho can spare in that direction, does not think it worth while to incur longer an unnecessary outlay. By a singular coincidence, a pair of egg merchants at Independence, Iowa, last week, unintentionally became poul? terers ou a largo seale. Tho porter sud? denly heard a noise in the store room, whero there wore 00,000 dozens of eggs packed away preparatory to being ship? ped East, and on going to seo what was tho matter, found 720,000 chickens run ning about the floor. They had been hatched by the heat. EXPLOSION OF "LIQUID SAFETY GAS." An explosion took place in a low drink? ing establishment in Now York, on Tues? day, in consequence of tho igniting of a match in a room in which stood a barrel of gasoliue, "liquid safety gas." Wm. McGrath, a bar-tender, was fatally in I jured, and another man severely so. The building was badly shattered. A large crowd collected to witness tho effects of this now patent "non-explosive" com? bustible.-JVeu? York World. EXTENSIVE FIRE IN PHILADELPHIA. The extensive factory building owued by Theodore Vetterburd, was entirely de? stroyed by fire Tuesday afternoon. It was occupied by Wilson & Fennimor's wall paper factory, the Phoenix brass foundry, and the Girard finishing works. Total loss 6100,000; insured for 350,000, mainly ia city companies. Two stables woro also burned and eight dwellings damaged. DEATH OF A CATHOLIC PRIEST.-Tho Rev. Father John Shanahan died in Now York, ou Monday.

I know of an instance where a fashion able dress-maker in New York urged an economical yoong girl, about to be mar? ried, to buy of her a costly trousseau, or wedding outfit. "But I have not the money, said the maiden. "No matter," said tho complaisant tempter, "I will wait four years, and send in tho bill to your husband by degrees. Many ladies do it." Fancy tho position of a pure young girl, wishing inuccently to mako herself beauriful in tho oyes of her hus? band, and persuaded to go into his bouse with a trick like this upon her con? science. A clergyman iu Iowa has succeeded in immortalizing himself by preaching tho following sermon nt a funeral in Cedar Rapids: "Tho Bible says, *In tho begin- j ning was tho word, and tho word was with God, and tho word was God;* but to suit tho preseut case I will paraphrase it a little, and say, 'lu tho bogiuning was the devil, and tho devil was with whiskey, and tho devil was whiskey/' and whiskey was tho cause of this man's death." A buxom young lady of Pekin, Illinois, a few days sinco, secured a divorce from her third husband, and iu seven hours later had started ou a bridal tour to tho East with her fourth husband. The most remarkable circumstance conuccted with tho matter is that the courtiug, pro? posal aud marriage of No. <A woro accom? plished within the time stated.

Why do you not admire my daughter? said a proud mother to a geutlemau. Because, he replied, I am no judge of paintings. But surely, replied the lady, not in tho least disconcerted by this rude reflection, you never saw au angel that was not paiuted. Mrs. Lydia Ingalls, of Lynn, Mass., seventy-one years old, while going into tho cellar with a kerosene lamp, acci? dentally set her clothes on fire and was so badly burned that she lived but two hours. She was very fleshy, weighing 240 pounds. On tho day tho news of the Prussian victory arrived, it is said there were only two Germans iu America but woro tight on lager. Ono lives in Ciucinuati, aud was nrrestod tho day before for being drunk, and tho other lived in St. Louis. Ho was buried that day. A contemporary says: "To obtain u good night's sleep, sponge thc eutiro length of the spiuo in hot water for ten or tifteen minutes. This will reduco the circulation, quiet the uervous system, and induce sleop better than any drug." The State debt of Louisiana has frown, under carpet-bag hands, from 12,000,000 to S18,000,000, aud tho taxes have increased to five aud a half por cent., "touching tho limits of cou fiscation."
