COLUMBIA, S. C. Tuesday Morning, October 4, 1870. John Bright's Conception ot National GrcatntOB, John Bright is well known ns one of England's greatest, moat enlightened statesmen. He is the great political re-' former of that country. It has been said of him that he "feels himself to be one of a great procession of the loyal and just, marching on from age to age to rescue the holy places of humanity." And as to his appearance, it has been remarked, that there is on him tho un? broken seal of one "Solemnly elected, With gifts and graces eminently adorned, To somo groat work." He seems to Seem it his great duty to make England larger, freer and juster. For the rights of tho working classes, for tho rights and just privileges of the masses of England, ho stands up the bold, powerful, consistent champion. Certain it is that John Bright's states? manship is enlightened, liberal, progres? sive and triumphant. Certain it is that he has a just nud lofty conception of tro? national greatness. Said he, in one of his great speeches: "I belicvo there ia no permanent greatness except it bo based upon morality. I do not caro for military greatness or military renown. I >caro Lon the condition of the people anions whom I live. There is no man in England who is less' likely to speak irreverently of the crown and monarchy of Englaud than I am; but crowns, coro? nets, mitres, military display, the pomp of war, wide colonies and a huge empire are, in my view, all trifles light ns air, and not worth considering, unless with them yon have a fair share of comfort, contentment and happiness among the great body of the people. Palaces, ba? ronial castles, great halls, stately man? sions, do not make a nation. The nation, i? every country, dwells in the cottage; and unless the light of your Constitution can shine there, unless tho beauty of your legislation, and tho oxoellenoo of your statesmanship nro impressed there in the feelings and condition of the peo? ple, rely npou it, you havo yet to learn the duties of government." These high aud enlightened views may well commend themselves to the rulers of this lund, us well as to tho crowned heads of Europe. Thu Present Il eglmc Arraigned. A correspondent of thc Now York World, who writes from Camden, S. C., above tho signature of "Carolina," and under dale of September 26, 1S7?, says: "Knowing that tho truth iu rotation to the condition of affai rs in South Caro? lina cannot reach the great people of the North by better meaus than through tho columns of your paper, I herewith beg leave to offer the following as the iudex of affairs hero at tho present time. "'Yon ara doubtless aware that the political coutest in this Stale is betweeu the 'Union Reformers' and tho Republi? cans. The platform upon which the Reform Party has entored this contest recognizes the rights of tho colored peo? ple as guaranteed by tao Constitution of the Uuited Statos, us fundamental law, as accomplished facts which wo acquiesce in. You soe, therefore, that so far as our platform is concerned, it is essen? tially Republican, aud goes equally as far us the Republican platform in giving to the colored people the rights guar? anteed to them by the Constitution of tho United Statos. In doing this, wo havo done only what New York, with her 80,000 Democratic majority, bas dono, aud the Kansas Democracy. "We oppose the administration of Go? vernor Scott for several reasons. First, because the debt of the State has in? creased from 8G, 183,319.17 to $14,133, 319.17 during a poriod of less than two years. When tho presout administration came in, there was a circulation of 'bills recoivabla (bills issued in 1803, when there was no money in the Treasury, and recoivablo iu payment of dues to the State) outstanding of S135.G87; to re? tire this circulation, ?500,000 of bonds tit six per pout, interest, payable in gold, have been issued; to pay ?775,973.2-1, floating debt aud expenses, incurred pre? vious to the present administration, S2.000.000 of bonds at seven per cont, interest, payable in gold, have been issued; for tho Laud Commission, $709, 000 of bonds have beeu issued, tho money raised, and only 100,000 acres of laud purchased, whereas three times that number could have beeu aud can be bought, superior iu quality; ?4,000,000 of bonds guaranteed by the Stato for the Blue Ridge Railroad, a road which has but thirty-four miles in running order, which was unable to pay tho interest on $280,000, its bonded debt, aud which runs through the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, aud with no probability of beiug completed under a less cost than $9,000,0001 So much for our first ob? jection "Wo objeot, secondly, because Oo voruor Scott has armed and furbished with ball cartridges 15,000 colored mili? tia, and has refused to.permit tho orga? nization or equipment of a single white mau in tho Stato. Tho Act to govern tho militia, provides for tho enrollment of all ci ti zeus of tho Stato between tho age of oightoon oud forty-five, with the usual exemptions, and tho only reference in said Act to arms, is in these words: 'Section 17. That tho arms, equipments, aud munitions, of the State shall bo stored ander the direction of the Com? mander-in-Chief, (Governor Scott,) and io -suck, places as he may designate.' This, vro contend, doe?not authorize the Governor to OTt arma Abd ball cartridges into the bands ;of mei totally unaccus? tomed to their use, ?nd commanded by the moat zealons and infatuated of Scott's partisans, who, to forward their own selfish interests, would not hesitate to commit foul murder. In thin small town, the captain of one of these companies has made incendiary speeches, calling the whites 'Johnny-Robs,' -to., showing the bent of his. mind, and foreshadowing bis purposes. We do not object to the militia, but tve object to the purpbse with which they were armed and fur? nished with ball cartridges. That pur? pose was to intimidate those of the co? lored people who joined the Reform Party, and thereby prevent them from exercising their God-given right of fran? chise. "We object, thirdly, because Governor Scott, in appointing Commissioners of Elections, bas chosen either his office? holders, those desirous of becoming so, or zealous partisans. The purpose of this is top evident for explanation. It is well known that in other States, the Commissioners nre appointed from both political parties. You see how it is hero. "We object, fourthly, becauso tho on tiro legislation hos been of a partisan nature. Large- monopolies have boen granted nnd large fortunes seoured to the officials of the State, who are tho grantees of tile monopolies. "I Could go on almost indefinitely to show how the cntireLegisIature is venal, corrupt, and open to bribery; how the convicts to the State Penitentiary aro hired oat, ten - miles from the paison without a guard, at forty cents per diem, said sam going into the pookets of the Superintendent, as I am informed; hov several hundred acres of cotton is being cultivated by said Superintendent with the labor of the convicts, the products being to n great extent appropriated by him; bow magnificent mansions are being and have been erected by officials and legis? lators who, two years ago, were worth nothing; how the leading radicals in several Counties have openly boasted of the means furnished thom by Scott and company to influence this election; bow colored and white members of the Re? form Party frequently receive letters threatening their assassination; bow a hellish plot bas come to light, proposing that a colored man in each County bo killed aud the murder laid upon the Reform Party; how, just at the timo when the plot was ripe, two colored men aro murdered in cold blood, aud the militia rising up in arms and shoot? ing at the Sheriff of Newberry County, becauso he bad arrested some Colored mon who had throatonod to kill a white man; how G overo or Scott proposes to write to the Secretary of War, and talks of martial law; how tho State constabu? lary, twenty in number, are paid ?30,000 per annum for doiug what tbe Sheriff can easily do; how our candidates aro interrupted ia their spoeohes, and rocks thrown at their heads; bow radicals who bavo their stores burnt down, bo causo they buy stolon cotton, and pro? cure colored mon to steal more, seek to be paid by tho taxing of tho County where the outrage is committed by a bill through tho L?gislature; how every little quarrel is magnified into a politi? cal strife, and Lynch-law sought to bo visited upou the whiteman who happons to get the better of his antagonist; how politics invade tho very courts of justice, and the fountains of law polluted by the infamous baud of ignorance and corrup? tion." THE PROCLAMATION or THE GOVERNOR. lu another column, we publish the pro? clamation of tho Governor, agaiust law? lessness and violence in Hie Counties of Newberry und Laurens, which though general in its terms, seems to be especi? ally directed ugninst white armed mili? tary organizations. The colored men have been organized und 'armed under the authority of thc Governor, aud hence, wo suppose, do not como within the purview of bis proclamation. But when white men arm themselves to protect their lives and property-the sanctity of their homes aud the safety of their families-that act is unauthorized, and they render themselves amonable to tho pains and penalties of tho Act of March 13, 1SG9-to imprisonment and hard labor in ?be penitentiary. Surely tho whites have some rights which Governor Scott is "bound to protect." If not protected by St ito authority, they must protect themselves. Self-defence is ono of tho rights. In tho late troubles in Newberry und Laurens, tho whites seemed to bavo acted purely on tho defensive-in Newberry, they formed tho posse of tho Sheriff, and acted strictly under bis orders. When tho necessity which called the, m together was over, they quietly disp ersed. [Abbeollie Press and Banner. The papers almost universally talk about what Germany will do, and what Germany will not do, in tho presant Eu? ropean crisis. But "Germany," as n na? tion or government, bas yot to bo formed. It has no present existence, either </-; facto or de jure. There ii Prussia, au independent nation; tbeu comes a score of principalities, partly independent, and partly dependent on Prussia, form? ing together what is called the North German Confederation. Then there arc tho independent kingdoms of Baden, Wurtemberg, Bavaria, and Hesse. Then there is German Austria, mixed up in singular relations with tho Slavonic peo? ple of Hungary and other provinces; there is also tho independent German Republic of Switzerland, and thc inde : poudont Kingdom of Holland, or lowland Gel many. When all those are drawn to? gether in settled barraouy, we shall bavo a .'Germuny." An enraged mnn team 'iis bair; an e:? . raged woman tears ber husband's. I Pabilo Meeting on Yeitordoy-Addroio or JT. BI. Baxter, Esq. Tho public meeting called ?or. yeator day waa held, after tho publio ?alee, io the Court House, courteously placed by Col. Shiver at the disposal ot the Oom j mittee oL Arrangements. The hall was , soon well filled by both classes of voters. Upon motion, C. P. Pelham, [Esq., was called to preside, and A. C. Moore, Esq., requested to act aB Secretory. Mr. Pel? ham, after some introductory observa? tions, introduced J. M. Baxter, Esq., of Newberry, who bud been assigned, with Ex-Governor Vance nnd J. S. Richard? son, Esq., to tho duty of addressing our people, on the issues of the hour, in be? half of reform. Mossrs. Vance and Rich? ardson were not presont. Mr. Baxter was received with applause, and made on effectivo speech. Wo can refor to only a few leading points : Tho speaker adverted coucisoly, earnestly and forcibly to the reconstruction poli? cy of President Johnson, and tho re? construction measures of Congress, whereby the State policy aud the ma? chinery of Stato Go vorn mont, adopted under President Johuson's policy, was displaced, and the present administra? tion of the State Qovernmcnt was inau? gurated. He inquired if the assertion contained in ?tho plaform of the Re? form Convention, that the Government was "inoompoteut, extravagant, preju? diced aud corrupt," was true. He show? ed that tho Govermect had failed, by weakness or indisposition, to keep thc peace; explained clearly the origin of the disturbances in Nowberry and Laurens Counties, tracing them to the mal ad? ministration of Governor Scott, and tho ovil teaohings of Joseph Crews, his min? ion aud ready tool. The speaker contrasted the present taxation with the taxation required be? fore the war, making ample allowance for increaso of cost in everything, und proved the taxation oppressive, aud the expenditures wasteful, instancing the cost of the Secretary of State's office, by way of salary and clerk's hire, the duties of which office had been per? formed by good mon before the war for the porqusitcs. Exposed the plundering of the Treasury, and the corruption of tho Legislature, wherein Tim. Hurley was hold up as "the mau of the period" and the specimen of his party-tho stan? dard-bearer for the proud old "City Bo side tho Sea." In terms of fearless strength, Mr. B. mercilessly exposed the unconstitutionality of tho Trial Justices and their jurisdiction, their weakness and corruption, thoir oppression and their fear of Scott's displeasure. He charged npou the present administration, a weak judiciary aud crowded docket, the delay of justice, and the in aroused cost of litigation. Ile said the old pro? verb, "us sober as a judge," was fast los? ing ita significance, and even a piuco io tho memory of our people. Tho speaker adverted to the promise made by the Governor at tim", city ;of Washington to govern the State in future with the Winchester rifle, and os a part of his policy then foreshadowed showed up tho organization of tho Stato militia, all looking to coercion at tho ballot-box. Mr. B. urged most earnestly that no ef? fort be spared to procure a fair ballot, and that tho box be kept nndebauched; that tho law must bc observed, if possi? ble, and tho greatest forbearance should be exercised, particularly to the weak and misguided; but that if bloodshed and violence should eusuo from the mal? administration of the officers of the pre? sent Government and their evil and se? ditious teachings and unlawful notions, tho ignorant and misguided tool should bo overlooked and the chief and prime mover should bo held responsible. That the law of God and man sn required. His effort for Reform was well received by a crowded house. Upon motion, tho meeting adjourned. -*->?+? > - Good maxim-iutrenchmeuts in war retrenchments in penco. Miss.M. A. Buio's Select School. ?tjfa^. MISS M. A.

His name appears iu nu proclamation-whore he is no one knows; ull they learn is that King and prince obey his directions, and that tho count loss soldiers of the German armies are marching and counter-marching, dying, fighting and conquering, und ho com? mands them. The silent man has all the mysterious attributes of fate. Hois invested with a power almost supernatu? ral. To the mind of n Frenchman tho commander of an army is a gorgeous being, surrounded by a brilliant stall'; ho will show himself to his troops, and he ever issuing to them high-sounding proclamations. Napoleon's plain coat was tho nlly of his genius; but a Napo? leon who is never seen; who never, when ho has succeeded in his manouvres, con? gratulates either hiuisolf or bis soldiers; who Bends his orders through a telegra? phic wire, instead of nn aido-de-cainp; who carries on war withont its "pomp, pride and circumstance," is something utterly beyond tho grasp of tho Gallic mind.
