?--- i i. i i i II WOW C .)LUMBLA..' S. C. Tues lay Ador nine, October 31 1871. Settlers vs. Political Adventurers. The Union, of yesterday, piros-the. views of its correspondent, "Truth," and its own reflections apon tbs subject mat? ter of ?.'Truth's" communication. lt has been said that "truth is mighty and will prevail," but this "Truth" ?H weuk, and thin, and won'tprevail. If there bo: one subject upon which om* head is "level," it is, O, Union, and O, "Truth," on the question of settlers from the North and from Europe, la season and out of season we have advocated the polioy and entertained the gouuiue feel ting of'encouraging the ingress in this State of au enterprising olass of settlers. If tho writer of this artiole could, with propriety, divest himself of his imper? sonality us a journalist, it would appear that no one io tho. whole State hus ex? tended a moro generous welcome to the white sellier thau he. And this bus al? ways been the spirit of tho PHOENIX since first il rose from the ashes of Co lat?fblair Weib?Ve 'ijf?yer-indulged, ia in-' discriminate ?abuse df.tho North, and hayOi-aTiv?yV'-^rayu.^ Revere' Jipa bf de m?rk?tion between 'the'genuin-*, bona fide settlers audf the th??viug Voarpqt bngger. " 'And (theso liborul Sentiments efprc$8.ed.?Q;.tho PJEICENIX do reflect the views of. our native-born .and adopted sons generally. ' Tho fact of. the .mutter is, our vi?ws'have ever been liberal, Tho Union, for instance; drew its. animating breath iii*the' State of Connecticut, and wo. moutjou,. this. not fljy way . bf 'dispa? ragement, /.Now, O, Ufiion',. JJiijak : you tHat~we"Ii?Id that State noted only tor its wooden hams and nutmegs, and its cloak of poor manufacture? Wo believe that there are as good people in Connec? ticut as hero-and so with respect to the other Northern States. We have in this State esteemed friends from Vermont, New York, Ohio, and elsewhere. We caro not where a man comes from pro? vided he has the elements of a genuine manhood. But we have ever held that the North and South could materially in? struct each other. Weean learn much from the North and the North can learn something from us. We hope that the little waif 'which our paragraphist picked up from au exchange will not wound the sensibilities of "Tri.th'.'-after this arti? cle. We hold, O, ''Truth," that there aro some flowers gro ?lng near Plymouth Kock as, well as foul weeds. We admit, O, "Truth," that tho samo will bold for King's Mountain aud tho banks of our Conguree. But, remember this, that we do'u?t intend to lot tho "carpet-baggers," ns they are known, hide themselves un dor'the skirts of tho settlers. The skirts of such geutlemen and sturdy citizens as Messrs. Wheeler, Pearce, McKay, Bush, Ticks, the Irwins, the Ly Brands, Lowry, Steers, abd others, ure broad aud pure too pure for I he "carpet-bagger" to gc under them f<.*r refuge. For ourselves, we open wide tho doors of the State tc white settlers. Tho Union, however, will excuse ue from expressing the wisL for any settlers from Africa and Asia. Ic this respect, the Union exceeds ns ir liberality, aud long may it exceed u; thus. And now we eud with a queston tc "Union" and "Truth," eaoh. It soemi hard to them that we consider that "car pet-baggers" should be more modest it their claims. Suppose, O, "Truth," tba Southern meu, mostly of tho wosst class should settle in New York, and at ono? seek to array the Irish or the Gormar element-strong and respectable as tba element is-against tho native citizens and undertake to fill in Now York all th? offices of honor or trust. Would yoi not, as a native New Yorker, think th< case rather hard? You must see th< point. We shall merely throw ont tin suggestion. And suppose, O, . Union - that a native South Carolinian should gt to Connecticut and establish a news paper, and support a corrupt Statt . regime, abd criticise the people of Con neotiout, and reflect with severity upoi tho past of the State, and undertake t( direct public sentiment, aud to contro things, and to play the deuce in particu . lar, helping to bring upon the people o Connecticut the law of the sword ant injuring their business. We ask yoi would you not regard that Son th Caro limab as having the impudence of tb? devil himself ? .' Answer that. 'And yet O,' Union, 'such, some people think, ii thy impudence. ' . 11.

Tho Union, of yesterday, coutainB a letter from Mayor Pillsbury, wbioh tho Charleston CouYier bad refused, to pub lish, on. tho ground tb ut it believed that; tho d?cumeot? forwarded by tbe Mayor' was golton up either by tbe Mayor or ouo of bia parky, for political effect. Tho following ?B what Mayor Pillsbury saya ia the Ku Klux document received by bimi , , ^'CHARLESTON, October 23, 1871. '*Ht?y?t Pillsbury. -"SIR: Forbenrauco hiuv.ouasod.-to be a Virtue. We hi.ve SWORN that you shall BIB if the Mayor and Aldermen elect - are nob i na tu Hf d Monday next. (Signed) "FIVE RESOLUTE MEN." This ia conclusivo, doubtless; ao let ua have the writ of. habeas corpu? suspend? ed ia Charleston. .Gall in the United 8tates troops. Ia not Gilbert Pillsbury in danger, and may he Dot well ory out, ua he loves tho Mayor's scat, dud fiada Othollo's occupation gone, "Help mt?, Cassius, or I sink." Wo agree with the Union. Thia thing speaks for itself. Points Well Put amt W?ll'Takcn. Tho Courier.Journal, a Kentucky paper, says that u<r sano mao will deny that whutever lawlessness there may have hoon in South Carolina-to take tho moat conspicuous of current examples is the result of intolerable mul-ndmints tratiou. Nor, it adds, will any fair minded'mun deny that the whole power of the dominant party at Washington bas been used to support the bordes of pillagers whoso rapacity baa drawn equally from the ignorance of tho con? ventional types of corruption and from au abnormal'state of viciousness. Tiri? ia true, aye, very true. The Courier Journal also pointedly says that the scene of these Southern disorders is, unhappi? ly,; remoto from mapy of the Staten where they aro viewed as hy a telescope, tho magnifying end of which is turned upon ono party whilst) tho other party, if ohsorved at all, appears, only at tho end of tbe glass which is known to produce the opposite effect. By this optical de? lusion a Ku Klux becomes a sort of giant, or dragon, whilst the Radical incendiary is reduced into the proportions of a harmless dwarf, not big enough lo hurt anybody and scarcely big enough to be seen. This is true, oyo, very true. Suppose u man, known as a promi? nent nativo born or adopted citizen of this State, were to step into a barber? shop, and declare himself thus: "Would to Heavcu we could get tho escuso foi hanging every Northern man ia thc c Humanity to the city lamp-posts, and for driving off every one of their wives and children," would not this nen timen I bo deemed iuhumau, mulicious und atro? cious? Wo think BO. We certainly should HO deem it. And yet, tho souti meut uttered by Mr. Hogo was quite ai outrageous.-if uot more so. Well maj tho Union admit that Mr. Hugo's lau gunge deserved rebuke, and get "frone ander." We observo, by-the-wuy, thal we anticipated ona point that the Unioi wanted to make. On Saturday, it wautei to demand-big word-tho "prominen! Radical's" name. On Sunday, it got it and a P'. S. was the result. A Cuitious CONSTITUTIONAL QUESTION Tho defeat of the proposed costitutioua amendments in Rhode Island has causei an animated discussion of the'Constitu Hon as it stands. The second Bectioi discriminates against tho foreign citizen who cannot vote ut nil without tho pro perty qualification. This is thought bj many politicians to be inconsistent witl the fifteenth amendment to the Conntitu tion of the United States, Tho Provi dence Journal, however, defends thi State Constitution, and asserts that tb? fifteenth amendment was draftod pur poBely so as to avoid all interference witl tho Rhode Island provision; otherwise the Journal says, it was understood a the timo that that State would refuse ti ratify it, and ua tho voto of overy Re publican State was needed, thu won "nativity" was struck out of tho firs draft, and the words-"race, color or pre vious oondition of servitude," were aub stitutcd. This is tbe version of Senato Anthony, who is the editor of the Jour nal. He ought to know the history o that amendment, and this fact show how u very little Stale may exeroise i (urge influence- upoo tho legislation o the country. ? < - A Democratic newspaper mentions i as "a significant fact" that os soon a Governor Warmoutb, of Louisiana, an nounoed that bo bad refuged a bribe o $50,000, lie was immediately repudiate* by tho Grant administration. But tb administration did not know that bo re jeoted tho bribe only because it waa aim ply not large enough. He demaudei $75,000, wbiab was refused, and thu was what bo was mad about. If tb President had understood thia foatnro o the Louisiana muddle, be would no have thrown Warmoutb overboard. Bu be always said be could not get hold o tho merits of that quarrel. [Miladukie News.

Very respect? fully, J. S. MO ULEY. FATAXJ ACCIDENT. - Ou Saturday morn? ing, u fatal acculent occurred iu Am? herst street, which resulted in tho in? stant death of Mr. Richard Tobin, an .aged cilizeu. Mr. Tobin was in the habit of rising ut a very early hour and pacing up und do wu his piazza for exer? cise until tho arrival of the morning paper. Ou tho morning in question he rose as usual while thu other inmates of tho ho.-.sc were yet in bed, aud lt iii sup? posed in looking over the balustrade, to see if tho puper had yet been thrown into tho yard, bo leaned a little too far, causing him to loso his bulauco aud fall head-foremost upou tho brick pavement below, a distance of ubout twelve feet. Airs. Tobin board the sound uf the full, aud rushing out, fouud bim lying ou the ground with thu right sido of his head crushed iu and quite dead. [Charleston News. While Cbicugo was burning, aud tho whole North-west seemed about to bo oousumed by vast armies of flame, Mr. Graut could think of nothing better to do than to declare martial law over a largo part of Soutb Carolina. Tbe pro? clamation was written for him iu Wash? ington on Saturday, aud signed by bim on Monday, and to-day South Carolina is domineered by "artillery abd in? fantry," and those ohoioe spirits-Fede? ral detectives-uro prepariug fiery perse? cutions for the people of a Stute which bas been plundered and bankrupted by ltudicul carpet-baggers.-Chicago Times. Colorado is first iu the iield with a uarrow gaugo railway. A rond of three feet gunge, seventy-six milos in length, has just been completed, and is now open for travel and freight. A largo sum has already been realized by con? struction trains carrying passengers and lumber. The success of tho narrow gauge system is regarded by those who have inspected this road as beyond all question. A Chicago firm that hid tho works of several thousand watches pass uninjured through the big fire, iu their vaults, now advertise these time pieces as "warranted adjusted to the tomporuture." NATIONAL FINANCES.-Secretary Bout well, as a gentleman recently from Washington informs us, is the most, dis? gusted official in the Government ser vico. Ha isn't pleased with some of his most conspicuous subordinates, bat be oaurjot help himself. He eua neither reform them, jWbite-wi-au them, uor re? move them. Ho complains of them in a querulous tone to the President, but the obief is apathetic; he receives tho appeal coldly, uud smokes on complacently, and the objectionable incumbents of good places ure .left to.stick. ' -Then bis foreign uegotiatioa of bonds hus mud? dled his fingers. Ho announced th nt be hud placed the remainder of the 3200, 000.000 loan, and tho delivery of tho bonds commenced. When the iirst of thu month came, how should he make up his debt statement? If lie added the bonds handed ever to tho syndicate to his issues, then the volume of the debt increased, and this the law forbade If ho made the proper allowance for inte? rest, then tho bouds were sohl at from two and a half per cent, to three per cent, below par, and this was forbidden. So ho says that lin han sold the bonds, aud tito syudicato say that they have bought them, and the deliveries from their hands prove that there has been un issue on some terms; hut the official debt statement recognizes nona of these transactions, either in tho increase of the bonded debt or the receipt of tho cash equivalent. Then, nguiu, it is said that tins bad management hero and thu equally bad mani pu lut ion of a Ibu rs in London by the two Treasury agents, who really have u branch Treasury Depart? ment there, have so embarrassed the syudicate that, even with all their pluck, energy and smartness, they huvcu't made thu thing r?o as they expected, and may have yet to throw part of the bonds back on liui IKUKIS. We think Mr. Bout well's disgust is not unreasonable; wu share it ourselves, and most of our read? ers ure Rtifferiug from the Rame experi? ence.-Al I. Journal tif Commerce. The Courier Dtplomati'/ue, of Paris, publishes .a communication, which, it says, comes from a diplomatic personage of high rank, making important revela? tions iu regard to tho negotiations which preceded tho war between Denmark and the allied powers-Prussia and Austria. Tho statement is, in substauce, us fol? lows: "In 186-f, Earl1 Russell, then Bri? tish Minister of Foreign AlTairs, made overtures, through Lord Cowley, British Ambassador at. Paris, to M. Rouher, pro? posing an alliance, offensive and defon aive, with France to help Denmark, in caso Prussia and Austria should deelaro war against ber. England was to co? operate with Franco hy Bea and laud, aud was willing to promise France, ia return for ber uHsistuuce, a rectification of her frontiers on the Rhine by tho an? nexation o? a portion of tho Rhenish provinces. M. Hon li er asked time for the consideration of these proposals, but in three days from the time they were laid before M. Rou her, the Emperor Na poleou accepted them. Lord Cowley immediately communicated tho fact of the Emperor's acceptance to his govern? ment, whereupon Earl Russell replied that it Was too late, us her Majesty's Go? vernment, had decided not. to interfere in tho ease of Denmark. This closed the negotiations, and .JO attempt was made to rc-opon the subject."

As Alexis is the Russian heir par excel? lence, nothing could possibly be more appropriate. David Smith, of Georgia, is recovering from a rattlesnake bite, after taking three drinks of spirits of turpentine and two and n half bottles of whiskey. There ought to be a law compelling snake bitten patiente to confine themselves to a singlo remedy, so that, if they get well, it may bo known what cured them. Some poor unfortunate will dio yet, from not knowing whether he ought tu take turpentine or whiskey. It in proposed at Chicago to erecta i monument in commemoration of the great fire, to be composed of all the damaged aud nseless safes recovered from the ruins. A good idea. Colum? bia might follow suit. A number of these iroa protectors, which wore Sher mauized, still lay around oar streets. The freedom of the press does not, we hold, warrant a trial justice in firing at a reporter, but if wo should unfortunately become a target for some irate man, we hope that ho will fire as badly as Mr. Mackey (lid in Charleston, and that we shall fire, if at all, with more success than did the Neio's reporter, who stood his ground so bravely.' However, thu is too grave a subject for ? joke-as Mr. Berry will no .doubt say with us. ' MA in ARRANGEMENTS.-Th? Northen mail opens at 3.00 P. M.; closes 7.li A. M.
