COLUMBIA, S. C. Friday Ho mm pr, September 16,1870. The Issue Ile foro ?be Stale--A Generous ?ntl General Rally Demanded. ' The peaoe and tbo prosperity of South Carolina-her interest, moral and mate? rial-are involved in the present State canvass. Let us hopo that our people, from ono end of Sonth Carolina to the other, duly appreciate the emergency. All the anti-Radical elemonts of South Carolina must combine to put an end, in this Stato, to the era of misrulo and waste and corruption. The issues in South Carolina are identical with thoso lately before the people of North Caro? lina. There, a great victory was won, and it is possible to imitate tho example sot by our sister State. Our case is not unlike hera. Wo present tho following extracts from the address issued previous . to the last olectiou in North Carolina. It came from tho Conservative members of the General Assembly of North Coro Hi?a. This address gave tono and direc? tion to the oanvass, and in that spirit, And upon that platform, tho anti-Radi cal8 of North Carolina won a thrice glorious victory. The dominaut party are organizing thoroughly for the approaching cam? paign, and you imperil every important interest of tho State, if you flatter your? selves with tho hopo that it will sur? render the Government without a despe? rate struggle. We feel coufideut that au .equally zealous and determined effort on tho part of tho conservativo people of tho State, will insure them a thrice glori? ous victory in August next. But to achieve it, they must be united und thoroughly harmonious. In the pre? sence of n determined enemy we cannot afford to divido among ourselves. The past glories or defeats of old political organizations should be nmong the things of tho past. In tho battle wo ure about to join against radicalism, reck? less extravagance, corruption, swindling, imbecility and partizan tyranny, why should we atop to inquire whether our leaders were in the past, Whigs, Demo? crats, Unionists or secessionists, so they but lead us to victory and save us from a defeat, tho result of which would be nothiug less than absolute ruin to thc State? That mau who now attempts to exhume tho buried past, to revivo tho prejudices born of issues long since dead, uud which ought to be forgotten, will, intentionally or unintentionally, con? tribute to tho strength of our common enemy. Let the bickeriugs of tho past bo hushed; let us r?60 ubovo the dwarfed idea that would lead us to inquire what a man's politics were in tho past; let ns but ask, is he an opponent of radicalism, is he honest, is he competent? Upon this broad and elevated plutform you eau invite the good of all parties and races to join you against that party, which has levied and collected taxes, without stint, with oue hand aud scat? tered thom with wild extravagance with the other; that has introduced into our halls of .legislation, corruption hitherto unheard of there; that lins elevated to positions of trust and profit, men wholly unworthy of confidence; that has altered and confused our laws until tho ad? ministration of justice has become costly, and its attainment uncertain; that has sought to subordinate the civil administration to military power by proclamation of martial law and peti? tions to Congress for the suspension of tho writ of habeas corpus; that has more than doubled the current expenses of the State Government; that has enormously increased the State debt; that has ruined the credit of the State; that has cast a foul blot upou her hitherto fair escut? cheon, and that for want of statesman? ship, and for utter disregard of the ne? cessities of the people, is without a parallel in tho history of this or any other State. With such a cause as ours, against such a party, the undivided ranks of conservatism must prevail. In tho last coutest iu this State, tho principal issue was upou the question of colored suffrage and tho civil rights of tho colored race. That matter has been decided, upon a solemn appeal, by the people of the United States. Tho gua? rantee of their rights, has now become a part of the Constitution. To that Con? stitution, we have ever been willing to defer, to tho laws made in pursuance of it, wo yield, and ever have yielded a ready obedience. Tbe Reconstruction Acts of Congress, with the civil and political rights they confer on the colored raoe, wo regard as a finality. Wo uccept them in good faith. Wo are ono of the States of the Uuiou. Let us seek to forget the bitterness of tho past, to build up tho places made waste by the nn fortunato war, and to promote tho harmony and prosperity of all sections of our great country. The colored man now enjoys the same political and civil rights as tho whita man. We accept his status ns fixed by the Constitution of this State and the United States, in good faith. Wo regard it as a final settlement of tho question. It now becomes our duty, ns good citi? zens, to elevate lum morally and intel? lectually. In tho selection of candidates, let eli? gible men be selected; let self bo lost sight of; lot the good of tho Stato bo your aim, and success your battle-cry. Let all tho elements opposed to radical? ism, bo organized into one solid, irresis? tible column. Let tho grand anny that is to overthrow radicalism, unfurl its banner; let tho mighty hosts be marshal? ed; let tho camp lires bo lighted; let every discordant feeling bo hushed, and with serried rank?, shoulder to shoulder, let it march with triumphant tread to a glo? rious victory.

C., over Green? ville and Columbia Railroad. I then came to tho conclusion that I would not take another trip over tho road, unless my life was insured, ns the road wus in a most horrible condition. Since that time, I huvo been North and West, but business calling mo hore again, I learned that somo changes bad been effected in tho Greenville and Columbia Railroad, und that great improvements had boen made in the road, and having some bu? siness at Greenville. I concluded to try it again; and I must here stato that I was most happily disappointed, as I found tho road improved to almost a first class road, and tho cars were magnificent. I can truly say that in traveliugover 12,000 miles, I have seen no bettor cars on any of tho Northern or Western roads. I am wholly unacquainted with you, or any of thc officers. I mado some inquiries and learned that the company Lave, for Su? perintendent, a Mr. Moro, formerly con? nected with the Now York Contrat Rail? road, and that the improvement was, iu a great measure, owing to bis manage? ment, as I understand he has given his whole time to putting his road iu good ordor; aud I am always ready to give my testimony nud os this road, by the ener? gy and management of Mr. Moro, has been brought out of thc mud and mado a good road, I thought I would let you know what strangers think I think of it. You can do what you chooso with this. I feel that such persons, industry, etc., should bo noticed, in all cases, ns it will stimulate others to act. Yours truly, A PHILADELPHIAS COLUMBIA, September 13, 1870. COLUMBIA, September 15, 1S70. A. J. Ransier, Esq.-SIR: Your com? munication of the 9th instant only readied me to-day. Tho tim?is too short now for mo to make any definite ar? rangements; but I will refer your propo? sition to Col. Paul Felder, of Orange burg, who will doubtless take tko matter into consideration, and, if timo permits, will ruukc tho desired arrangement. I am, respectfully, E. W. SEI MELS, Sec. Ex. Com. U. R. P. A BOY WHO IS HIS OWN GRAND FATHER.-At a school in Norwich, there is a boy who is really his ow? grand? father. How is it possible? the reader will ask. I will explain it. A widow, who had a son, married at the samo timo with lier daughter-in-law. Tho latter married tho husband's father of her mother-in-law. In cons?quence of that, tbo widow was tho father's mo thur of her husband, that is, her grand? mother. Shu was her son's great grand? mother, consequently, he was a grand? father of his own, and tho grand-uncle of her daughter-in-law. - Translated jrom die German, by J. lt. If there is any valid excuso for tho commission of ci imo, it is that which a woman has for killing tho man-not who bas seduced her, but who, failing to gain her love, persisteutlj' blackens her reputation aud makes her life miserable. Tho Gilroy (California) Advocate tolls of a tragedy which recently occurred nour Gilroy, and in which Prudence Page, nee McNameo, enticed Beckwith Kelly to a willow copso and there shot him dead. Tho reason of this was that Kelly once wished to marry her, but was rejected; and she married a Mr. Stout. Kelly lied basely about her, and did all in his pow? er to estraugo her husband's affections, but could not. Mr. Stout died, and Kelly renewed his suit, but was again rejected, tho lady marryiug a Mr. Page. Kelly kept up his outrageous course of slandering her, and finally cnused a sepa? ration botweon her and bor husband. Thereupon, Mrs. Pago returned from Sun Francisco-whither Kelly's lies had followed her, and where abo had lived with Mr. Pago-found tho man, and, as said, look him to a lonely place and shot him. A SOUTHERN SAMSON.-There isa man living in Calhoun County, Miss., who is supposed to bo tho strongest man in tho State, if not in tho entire South. Ho is thirty-five years of age, aud weighs two hundred aud twenty-five pounds, He has been known to carry three burs of railroad iron, when it takes from three to five ordinary men to curry ono. He cnn take a cask containing forty gallons of whiskey or water (tho former ?B pre? ferred, wo prosumo,) and raisoitfrom tho ground nud drink out of tho bung bolo with as much ease as others could ont of a common pitcher; and ho has frequently taken a barrel of flour under each arm, and, balancing a sack of salt on his head, carried thom for soverol hundred yards with apparently but littlo effort. Ho offers to bot that ho can lift 1,300 pounds. DOUBLE DAILY TBA IN.-We were in? formed, some weeks since, that the rail? road lines from Augusta to Richmond, had agreed to start a double daily pas? senger train. We regret to learn that this good resolve is now postponed or defeated, because the North Carolina Railroad has not a suffloient equipment of engines and coaches to run it from Charlotte to Greensboro. {Charlotte Observer. Tbe Prussian booksellers aro said to have a map of Germany on Balo with the latest "unifications." Tho now map sweeps in Alsace, Lorraine and Franche Comte. Also, through tho Tirol down to Trieste include German Austria. It is uncertain whether tho Russian pro? vinces on tho Baltic are included; they are of the same color as the rest of Prussia. WHY DON'T YOU POP?-Who is the young man whoso sweetheart told him tho other evening, "If you mean busi? ness by coming hero twice a week, I want to know it; and if you menu fun, I'd like to know it; for I've just had an oller from another fellow, oud shall take him up if you don't pop?" Scbuylor Colfax aunouuces that ho will rotiro to private lifo at the end of his term as vice-President. Tho una? nimity with which tho peoplo won't care if he doos will bo something wonderful.

The advisability of barning the dead bodies on tho field of battle is hoing argued in Paris, and several suggestions have been made for turning slaughtered soldiers to some profitable account, rather than permit their remains to taint the air and breed pestilence.

Aug 23 EDWARD HOPE. A BITER BIT.-A man named Hatch kiss, over in New Market, tho other night, thought he would have sorao fun soaring his wife, by dropping a loose brick down the ohimnoy into tho fire? place in her room. So he crept softly out of bcd, and with nothing on but his shirt, sueaked up stairs and got out on the roof. Mr. Hotohkiss dropped nine? teen bricks dowu tho chimney, each one with a vigorous slam, but his wife never screamed a solitary time. So, then. Mr. Hotchktss gave it up, and thought he would go down stairs; but he fouud that Mrs. Uotchkiss had bad her bead out of tho trap-door watching him all tho time, and when he bad finished she had shut tho trap and fastoued it on tho inside. It may bo as well io state that Mr. Hotoh k i HS spent tho rest of the night sitting on tho sharp peak of the roof, with bis trail? iug garments of the night fluttering in the evening breeze, singing "I'm Lou ely To-Night." Mrs. Uotchkiss intimated to her confidential friends that she thought sho had him.-Newark Courier. A beautiful young girl left her father's roof, at Cohoes, N. Y., quite recently, to adopt a life of shame, because her babita were of so costly a nature that she was afraid of being a burden to him any longer. Shu was followed, overtaken, and placed under the care of a religions society. Tho extravngauco of dress en? couraged by the wealthy classes is but too often the cause of working tho ruin of young girls of humble means. It is believed in high oflicinl circles nt Washington that General Trochu will, if an opportunity offers, pronounce in favor of making the Count de Paris (one of tho Orleans Princes) King of the French. This belief is based upon pri? vate information received from Paris.

These bitters produce no unna? tural excitement, and these effects are at ouce soothing and strengthening, and they coun? teract to a great degree the depressing influ? ence which i ho decay of the bodily energies has upon tin! animal spirits; it is, therefore, that it is acknowledged universally, that Lipp? mann's Bitters are cordial for the aged.
