TM DAILY ?jj?f PHONIX. "Lot our Just Censure ^^^^^^t^^^^^-^^??&p* Atlond tho True Event." BY J. A. SELBY. COLUMBIA, S. C., TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST S 1871. VOL. VII-NO. 120. Th? NtccHsiiy or Organization, Our respected cotemporary, the Keo wee Courier, joins hands with tho N?ibs in deprecating organization this year. We will add a few words to what vre have already written on this subject. If we intend to keep up tho Democratic party in this State, we must keep our? selves in accord with its movements. We are now totally disorganized, and have been so since the dissolution of tba Union Beform party, last fall. We have not even a committee which could take the initiatory steps to re-orgauize the party, or with which tho national committee could oonfor, even upon the most vital and important exigency. We,| Bupposo that tho party organizations arc never allowed to expire in other States, for there is always work to bo done. Perhaps nowhere is there so much to be done as in South Carolina. Our oppo? nents nover slumber nor sleep. Have they more need of vigilant and persever? ing effort than we? Have they the pro? mise of more and greater rewards than we, to induce their steadfastness? We do not agree that our people aro only capable of a sudden and emotional effort1 in behalf of their liberties-that they are inoapablo of earnest and sustained labor when a proper patriotic taBk is laid beforo them. They aro not impulsive and impressible. On the contrary, they are stoioal, slow to take position, and | not readily aroused to action. There must ba a good causo to enlist their energies, and it must be long presented with tho constant persistency of earnest nesu and truth, beforo they lay hold of it; but when they do, you may trust them for ah impetuous, determined and self-sacrificing devotion and constanoy to the cause. They who took the re? sponsibility of inaugurating tho Reform porty, last jear, aro responsible also for tho dissolution of the Democratic party of this State. When they dissolved their temporary substitute, thoy left nothing behind but politioal anarchy, in the face of a disciplined and triumphant foe. An effort was then made to effect a compact organization, which, by this time, might, wo believe, have held in its hand the politioal destinies of this State; but that failed in obedience to that pro? crastinating appeal now urged against organization. We have not only to unite our people, but to gain, by this time 'next year, 10,000 votes, or we are doomed to ruinous defeat. Tho voten we gain are to be won, not by agitation or pnblio appeals to popular assemblies, bat by a concentration of assiduous efforts npon individuals. In our opi? nion, tho most of this work is to bo done in the first months of next year, if we proposo to gather the autumn fruits. We repeat, let us organize County and preoinots clubs of prudent and thought? ful men, and an efiioient executive com? mittee, active and energetic, who will quietly and efficiently work ont the re? sults of their own counsels. A delay until next year, wo fear, will bo fatal to our hopes. It is worthy of consideration, too, that tho experience of our Charleston friends cannot be resorted to to deduce a rule of aotion for tho State. Their ciroumstanaes are entirely different. They operate npon a different sort of people altogether, and by different means. Their work may, perhaps, be more efficiently dono in a week or two than in a longer period. In the rural districts we must operate according to our own experience of the requirements of the work. Wo com? mend this subject moBt earnestly to the consideration of the people. If we had the ear of the thoughtful wefeel sure we oould impress npon them at least a por? tion of. our deep conviction^ of the vital neoeasity of rallying and organizing our forces for the victory whioh may lhere be rendered possible. Much, of course, of its value and expediency would de? pend upon the use made of the organi? zation when effected. It would not be proper here to anticipate what might be tho forms and modes of efficient politi? cal work, whioh the party might see fit to prosecute. That in their united wis? dom they would find such work ready to hand we have not a shadow of a doubt. [Cumditn Journal. THE CHARLOTTE, COLOMBIA AND AU? GUSTA RAILROAD.-We learn that the Pennsylvania Central Railroad Las pur? chased a leading interest in the above road. With tho great wealth and influ? ence of tho Pennsylvania corporation added to the efficient management and energy of the present directory of tho Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Bail road, we expeot to soe a prosperous state of affairs inaugurated for the latter. We understood, yesterday, that the stock of the road was on the rise, a considerable advance, having been made in the ruling prices of some time past. [Augusia Constitutionalist.

In tho early autumn tho quicksilver aomotimeB riseB as high during tho day aa in tho moat fervid Hummer wo&thor; while ut night it often sinks to an almoat wintry point. Tho human body not hoing in ?ul o of alocl or India rubber, sen Bibly feela thCBO tremendous changea. To fortify tho eyatom against thom, a genuine tonic is required; and tho public lias long Hinco di Hoovered that among thia description of medioinoH, HoBtettcr'a Stomach l?tter? is infinitely tho bebt. It gently quickens tho circulation, rogulatcB tho bowels, tonca tho liver, bracea tho n?rvea, and thua puta tho whole physique) on its defence against tho vi? cissitudes of temporal ure in our climate.

AH it bucoinoa moro and moro widely known, and tho demand for it increases, cbiils and fever, anti tho bilious remittent seem to recede l>e foro it, and if ever it should come into univer? sal uso, these diseases would ceaoo tu hu known as tho econrges of our low-lying and marshy di s trio t u. That homely hit of proverb? ial philosophy, that "pitvolition is bettor than cure,'' should ho especially boroo in mind in tho autumn months; and indeed in all seasons, together with tho faut, that among all tho preventives of malarious dis? ease, HoBtottor'a Stomach Hitters is tho most safe aud potent.

AFEW reasons why they should have tho preference over all others: 1. wheeler & Wilson's Bowing Machine is much simpler than any of tho others; re? quiring lees than half tho amount of ma? chinery. 2. As thc result of this simplicity, this ma? chine in much lees liable than the* others to get out of repair. 3. Another result of this fcimplicity ?B groater durability. 4. Another result ia less friction, and, con? sequently, greater ease and rapidity ol' mo? tion, with less noise. 5. And greatest of all, that it uees no Shut? tle, and makes thc lock stitch. It ?B the cheapest to buy the best. Buy the machine that han justly, fairly and honora? bly won a reputation and independence against a strong and bittcrcompctition. For more than twenty years has tho Wheeler & Wilson not only stood first and foremost, but now stands tho uni i vailed Sewing Machine of tho enlightened civilized world.
