_-?? Wednesday Morning, October 19,1870. Tno Work Before U?-Tlie Duty of the Hoar. "Oar doubts are traitors, And make us lose tho good wc oft might win, By fearing to attempt" These words may well eome up before our minds in this eventful day, "big with the fato of" South Carolina. How true it is that "our doubts are traitorsl" Many a victory has been lost-many an enterprise has miscarried-mauy a high hope has failed of its fruition, because of men's doubts. It is our doubts that often paralyze onr energies and bring upon us disaster and defeat. And par? ticularly does this sentimont how im? peril the safety and the interests of South Carolina. The white men of South Carolina for REFORM, and the colored men in sympathy therewith, have this day in their hands the power to redeem the State. Let them come out from the mountains to the seaboard; let them throw aside their traitorous doubts] let them, standing upou their native soil, catch tho spirit of hope and determination; let them rise up in the pride of their patriotism and in ?he majesty of their strength, and South Carolina will be won back and remitted to honest, faithful and considerate ianda. The reform organization of South Carolina have the power to save the State from the inroads that tho ring of Ohio, Massachusetts and other plunder? ers aro making upon the people's money and tho people's hopes. Let us seo to it that we use this power at tho ballot box to-day. Tho ballot is tho weapon now. Let tho ballot restore to us what tho ballot lost us. Let the firm resolve ?ul Carolinians win back that of which the apathy of Carolinians caused them to be deprived. Nor should the hardness of the times excuse any man-for the non? performance of his duty. If business is dull-if the merchant, mechanic or laboring man fails to prosper as he ought-if cotton is low-below the cost of production, and the necessaries of life continuo high-if the hopes of planter and farmer have been blasted-in this state of things will be found the strongest argument for REFORM. If our people were rich and their purses plethoric-if our merchants were doing a thriving business- -we might endure with equa? nimity for two years longer the robbery, tho thieving and plunder of tho two years past. But, as it is, let the business men-let the citizens generally-consider how they are to meet the tax-gatherers another year, and considering further the heartless, rapacious and irresponsible character of thoso who seek to retain the State for another term, let them seo in their straitened circumstances the argu? ment, the need, tho demand for REFORM. And seeing the need, tho . demand for reform, let tho appreciation of their duty come homo to them in all its force and importance. That duty is to be discharged to-day. Let us hope that the entire vote of all Carolinians in sympathy with reform will this day be brought out. This effort, good and houest citizenship calls for at our bauds. South Carolina must bo saved. We do uot intend to give the Stato np. Her bleeding wounds appeal to u?. Her genial climate and her teeming soil invito us to lier redemp? tion. Let us read our duty iu our hearts. By the memories of the past and the hopes of the future-hy consi? derations affecting our interests, our safety and our honor-by nil that is near and dear to us, let us spare no effort in behalf of the State. Let evory voter cast his ballot this day for economy, re? trenchment and reform. Vote radicalism down. ^Whatever it may bo in tho North, here in South Carolina it is tho bane of the commonwealth. It is associated with fraud, corruption and robbery with high taxes and plunderingofliciuls with a hard present and a worse future. "Tho coin is spurious, nail it down." Vote for Judge CARPENTER, and Gene? ral BUTLER, and for Reform. Hero in tho very centre of the infamous ring of radi? cals, nativo and foreign, raiso boldly the standard of REFORM. Hero at the headquarters of the plundering crew, fly high tho flag of our principles aud our hopes. Aud lot public opinion hold him in scorn who shall this day meauly sacrifica his family, his nauio und man? kind, and fail to do his duty nt thc polls. Lot us bear ia mind of what blood we aro, and voto tho plunderers down. On Trafalgar's great day, Lord Nelson ran out his flag, upon which was written, in bold characters, tho words that have sinco becomoimmortal: "Eng? land expects every mau to do his duty." The suggestion wo may well this day heed. For on this occasion, from one end of South Carolina to tho other from whero thc mountains riso in grandeur tn where tho waters sparkle iu thc sun-light, "SOUTH CAROLINA EXPECTS EVERY MAN TO DO IIIS DUTY."

Goac one-eoni? all, and' owuii the. orowd. Fair week will be a grand one in Columbia. Visitors will be provided for. Gen, Hampton's Charges Against dov. Scott. Gov. Scott having, in bis organ, tho Republican, denied tho charges made by Gen. Hampton in his letter to General Butler, Messrs. Childs and Gibbes say; We were present at tho interview held with Gov. Scott on the 27th day of Oc? tober, 1868. We state that the account given by General Hampton, ia his letter of tho 8th, to General Butler, is accurate and correct. Li. D. CHILDS, JAS. G. GIBBES. Tho above was yestorday telegraphed to tbe Charleston Courier, News and Re? publican. General Hampton's word was enough, but thi3 makes assurance doubly sure. TAMPERING WITH VOTES.-The follow? ing paragraph is published for tho in? formation of the voters and others: "Under the Act of July li, 1870, any person voting twice, will bo arrested by tho United States Marshal, and tho p3r son so offending is liable to arrest, and not less than twelve 'months imprison? ment. Any person who tampers with, or attempts to tamper with, or threatens to tamper with tbe ballot-boxes is liable to the same penalty." ONLY $130,000,000 FOB CUBA.-WO clip the following from the New York Sun: Negotiations are in progress which, if successful, promise to result in tho im? mediate independence of the Island of Cuba. A short timo ago, Gen. Prim sent a Spanish gentleman to Washing? ton to make a proposition involving the sale of Cuba by Spain. The agent was authorized to offer the island for ?170, 000,000, but while tho negotiations wera in progress the price was reduced 40, 000,000, and Cuban independence cnn be purchased at ?130,000,000. Tbe agent has received specific in? structions to pledge tho government of Spain to remove the Spanish soldiers from the island when the United States shall guarantee tho payment of the pur? chase money. The subject was discussed at a Cabinet meeting on Monday. It is believed in Spanish circles that Gen. Prim's proposition will bo aooepted, bot the decision of tbe Cabinet is not known. AMERICAN DISTURBANCE IN HONOLULU. A correspondent writing from Honolulu says Commander Truxton, of tho sloop of-war Jamestown, requested Consul Adamson to display bis colors at half mast over tho consular office, out of re? spect to the late Queen Dowager, but Mr. Adamson declined to do so, on tho ground that ho had-received no official notice of the Queen's death from the United States Minister rosident. Com? mander Truxton immediately ordered Lieutenant Cochran, with a guard of marines, to put the Hag at half-mast, by force if necessary, over the consular office. Tho order was obeyed, the Con? sul and Vice-Consul resisting. The Honolulu press are indignnnt, and pro? nounce tho invasion of Hawarian terri? tory by au armed force of tho United States a high-handed proceeding. ADDRESS OE COL. J. P. THOMAS.-Thes? pian Hall was crowded on Friday night, October ll, to hear Col. Thomas speak. Messrs. McCants and Stuart briefly ad? dressed tho audience by way of opening the meeting, and DuBoso Egleston, Esq., President of the Union Reform Club of Wiunsboro, then introduced Col. J. P. Thomas, as ono who did honor to South Carolina, and whom Carolinians de? lighted to bouor. For one hour and o quarter Col. Thomas enchained tho at? tention of bis audience by a very forci? ble and beautiful address, and praises of it are upon every lip. Whatever be says, too, ever carries double weight, owing to thc sincerity and manly dig? nity of his character. From the begin? ning to tho end of bis address, be was encouraged by enthusiastic applause [ Winnsboro News. A company of United States marines paraded tho streets of Philadelphia on Tuesday last, tho day of election, to en? courage radical outrages and intimidate Democratic voters. Tho Mayor prc tested against such an interference on tho part of tho Federal Government with State elections, but no respeot was paid to bis protest. These soldiers took pos? session of one of tho voting places under tho false plea of preserving order, in plain violation of tho constitution of tho United States. Talk about tho frcodom of election 1 What a mockery 1 Wo bavo no longer a constitutional government. Tho hypocritical cry is: "Let us bavo peace"-while wo bavo in truth nothing but a military despotism. FRENCH WEST INDI ES-REVOLT AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT.-Captain Podger, of the brig Black Swan, who sailed from St. Pierre, Martinique, on the 28th Sep? tember, arrived at this port yesterday, reports a fearful state of excitement in that island. The news of tho termina? tion of tho Napoleon dynasty bad beeu received, which was followed by an in? surrection against tho government. Riot and bloodshed ensued, and a general massacre was feared. An ill-humored English wife, abusing ber husbaud on account of his mercenary disposition, told bim that if she was dead, bo would marry tho devil's eldest daughter if be could get anvtbiug by it. "That's true,"replied the husband, "but tho worst of it is, iu Euglaad ono cau't marry two sisters." PAKTTTYRANNY. -Inthe ponding Con? gressional can vasa in Virginia The Radi-' oak) aro applying tb* thumb-sorew to tho offico-holdore. Every ^ndiccl occupant of ?very peniy Federal ??loo is made to disgorge a part of hi? earnings for tho ho ne flt of tho "party of gTeat moral idoaa. " OQ Saturday last a demand for a contribution of three dollars was made upon every workman in the navy yard at Portsmouth tu aid in the election of a oarpet-bng Congressman from that dis? trict. The Norfolk Virginian says tho quar? ter-men and master workmen wore as? sessed higher. The mechanics must pay up the three dollars, or, not being con? sidered truly loyal, will bo discharged. These men, whether Radical or other? wise, are obliged, to save their bread and butter, to yield to all such exactions. Suppose the poople of that district were to make a similar requisition upon all tho negroes in their employ, what yells wo should hoar from tho Radical camp. CoAii AND SCALES.-The coal traffic over the Lehigh Valley Railroad, of Pennsylvania, is enormous. A slight iden can be formod from the fact that ?10,000 tons of coal lui vu boen weighed each week, for three years, upon a single truck scale built by Messrs. E. & T. Fair? banks & Co., mnkiug a total of 6,240, 000 tons. This docs not include that weighed upon the dozen or moro other scales of their make upon tho said road. Messrs. Fairbanks nro now manufactur? ing nearly 1,000 scales each week, of their various modifications, and are much behind their orders. A young mau iu a Western city is in the habit of placing billet-doux in the gate-post in front of a young lady's house, ovenings, and his rival, watching from across tho street, bears them ol! and reads them. The neighbors think there'll bo a schuetzeufxst when those two fellows meet. A good losson to teachers is convoyed by the following simple anecdote: "How is it, my dear," inquired a Behool mis? tress of a little girl; "how is it that you do not understand this simple thing?" "I do not know, indeed," she answered, with a perplexed look, "but I sometimes think I've so many things to learn that I have no timo to understand." Missouri has furnished tho latest de? finition of "disloyalty." It consists in au effort to confer ou white men equal political privileges with negroes. Carl Schurz and Gratz Brown aro denouueed by tho Radicals as traitors for desiring that this shall bo doue, and Grant ap? proves. During tho war the highest tax point reached was S329,00D,0U0. Since peace was announced tuxes have touched $569, 000,000, aud for tho present year are $80,000,000 higher than over during the war. if the people desire n reduction of taxes, they must defeat the Radical candidates for Congress. Two porsous, each over eighty, who had been betrothed in early life, were recently united in wedlock at Galesbnrg, 111. In tho interval between the separa? tion and ro-union, each had been twice married. We hasten to give our lady readers tho following important information: "Sash? es and punier over-skirts ave uow entirely obsolete, and the skirts hang plain in tho back, are abort in front, and aro now looped at thc sides." Dickens says: "I have kuowu vast quantities of nonsense, talked about bad men not looking you ia the face. Don't trust that convoutioual idea. Dishon? esty will stare ont of countenance any day in the week, if there is anything to bo got by it." A man, claiming to bo from Columbia, was robbed of two watches in Augusto, on tho night of tho l7tb, during a sleep brought en by overdoses of benzine. The watches were recovered. A young woman o? Harvard, Mass., finding that her husband had another wife living, sought out the deserted ono, brought her und her two children to Boston, where they aro all four now living happily together. Matilda Heron was so desirous of separation from her husband, Sboopel, that sho gave him all tho property sho had, even drawing a din moud ring from her linger and throwing it into tho bar? gain. A negro who was tried in Tunica County, Mississippi, for bog stealing and acquitted, was immediately put on tho jury to try and acquit ono of tho ne? gro jurors charged with horse stealing. Jersey City has a United Temperance Kruss Band, but, sad to relate, nil its members take a horn occasionally, ex? cept the drummer. Rev. N. C.
