rvfr-i-1 Thanday M?raing.Bovcmiw^, 1670. Politico. HI ; Pol?tica, aays the New O rle wa Times, which waa originally snpposod tb lije the j soienoe of Cover a meut, boo gradually degenerated, under radical,management. Into a soienoe of trickery, deceit and fraud/ In tho intellectual world it baa become a oysteua of sharp practice; in the moral world it is practically the last resort of sooundrelism.'. Years ago, when foul deeds were properly rebuked and punished, men who resorted to tho perjuries and deceptions which are now co common among tho baser sort of politicians, would have been tried for their offences and invited to dance upon nothing beneath a leafless tree. Now, all this ia changed. Success is regarded by the grasping as the only test of merit, and with'Machiavellian ekin, all sorts of lies aroinvoated to throw the blame for every wrong on those who assume an attitude of opposition. The truth is, corrupt politicianu have beoomo the bane of thio country and a perpetual disturbo? of tho peaoo. All the terrible humiliations and groas wrongs which eur people have au fifer od since they re? turned Coy their allegiance, at the dose of the lato unpleasantnoaa, have been part and parcel of the machinery by which the radioala have triumphed, and of tho craft by whioh they\have made their wealth. Indeed, American radicals have ron politics into the lowest depths of in? famy and degradation. The negro has been at once their agent and their tool; their oats-paw and their viotim. They have put him forward upon all occasions as a screen for the shafts which were leveled at themselves, and if there was any danger to be encountered, or dirty deed to be done, the black guard was al? ways thrust forward as the proper man and brother .for the business. Thus it has happened that since peace was pro? claimed, there has been no peace, but in? stead thereof our quiet, honest and in? dustrious oitizens have been subjeoted to acts of atrocious insult and deeds of malignant revenge, which no people, entitled to the rights of self-government, were ever before called upon to suffer. Ia the recent contest triumph has again perched ?upon tho radical banners, but from the outlook .we can already dis? cover the beginning of the end. Had their opponents brought-out their best men and conducted the campaign with that earnest and straight-forward strategy which begets faith, they might have suc? ceeded. They have had another failure, and in that failure another warning. May it do them good. DEATH OF JUDGE F. D. RICHARDSON. We learned yesterdny of tho death of the Hon. F. D. Richardson, whioh took place in Clarendon County, nt tho house of ex-Governor Manning, on Sunday evening, the 20th iustant. Tho deceased was the sou of the Hon. John S. Rich? ardson, one of thu Associate Judges of tho State for a period of many years. Ho was born iu Sumter, in 1818, and after remaining for a long time in the Charleston College, studied law in tho office of the lato distinguished Attorney Geueral, Henry Bailey, E^q., and was admitted to the bar in 183D. Ho soon achieved for himself a brilliant r?puta? tion, being equally, remarkable for his power of analysis and profouud attain? ments, fortified by a wonderfully reten? tive memory. Ho was for many years a member of tho Stato Legislature, in the lower house, where he exercised a control necessarily incidont to his commanding talents. Upon tho re-organization of the Judi? ciary system after tho war, he was pro? moted to tho Bench, having been elected n District Judge for Berkeley, iu which position ho added greatly to his well earned reputation. Dr. J. Marion Sims, a well-known surgeon of this State, has lately return? ed from France, where ho was Surgeon iu-Chief of the Anglo-American ambu? lance corps, which has rondercd good service to .both French and Prussian soldiers. In regard to reports concern? ing the declining health of Louis Napo? leon, ho says that the supposition that Napoleon is a decrepit old man is a grout mistake. His intellect was nover moro vigorous than at present, and hi3 physi? cal hoalth is perfect, with tho exception of a few trifliug infirmities. He is oc? casionally Bubjoct to sciatica, but to no disease that threatens life. Dr. Sims speaks of tho Prince Imperial as a strong, rosy boy, in perfect health and very in? telligent. Tho average physique of tho Germans is spokan of us being superior to that of tho French. Dr. Sims states that tho French ambulance corps is badly organized, that tho surgeons aro often incompetent or neglectful, and that tho suffering of tho French wounded from neglect has boon terrible. ANOTHER INFAMOUS OUTRAGE.-Wo learn that a young man, (white,) unof? fending and quiot, living in tho Mt. Zion neighborhood, was dragged from his houso a fow nights since, and cr nolly and outrageously treated by negroes.
