COLUMBIA. S. C. Tuesday Morning, May 28, 1872. Thc Republican Party In South Caro? lina. We publish elsewhere aa article from the Republican paper, published at Beaufort, remarkable alike for its can? did acknowledgment of party error and corruption, and its sound and healthful advice. It is a review of the record of the Republican party in South Carolina, from its origin in 1868 to the present day. The glorious promises it made, the bright prospects it held forth of equal rights, justice to all, economy in government, dissemination of knowledge among the ignorant masses, etc, are faithfully repeated, and the utter failure , to realize them, or any part of them, as honestly recorded. The writer's criti? cism of his own party is perfectly just and correot; but when he comes to speak of those whom he terms the "enemies of the negro race," he makes a great mistake, though there is, too, no little of troth in what he says. The negro race has no enemies in Sooth Carolina, unleaa they be those who have misled, - aqd are still striving to mislead them, to their manifest harm. The white people in this State who opposed negro suffrage did it from no spirit of animosity to the newly enfranchised race. If they had been of Saxon blood, with skin aa fair and hair aa fine as any of that proud race, the oase would have been bat little altered. The blacks had been bat a day, as it were, freed from bondage; they were ignorant, inexperienced, credulous, and, in short, wholly unfitted to ezeroise, with safety to themselves and benefit to the State, the higher duties of citizen? ship. They were liable to be made the tools of wiley demagogues and dishonest adventurers, and, being in the majority, the State mast suffer from it. So the white people thought, and so every sensi? ble man most have thought. If the events of the last four years, in whioh the commonwealth has been robbed of untold millions, and corruption and venality pervaded every department of the public service, prove anything, they prove that the apprehensions of the whites were well grounded. To Bay that they were the enemies of the colored race, because they opposed universal suffrage, is unjustifiable and untrue As soon might you call that parent the enemy of his child, who refuses to allow him dangerous indulgencies. What good has all the extravagance, corruption and incompetency, which has characterized eur State Government, done the masses of the freedmen? In point of material wealth, they are to-day, after four years of hard labor, as badly off as they were when suffrage was thurat upon them, and their f utnre prospeots are far gloomier than they were then. The evil moral effects whioh faithlessness and actual thefts in high places may have had upon thom, we will leave for profounder minds than ours to measure. Four years ago, the whites were will? ing to o on cede qualified BU ff raga, and there is. not an honest and intelligent man to-day who will say that a restric? tion put upon blacks and whites alike in the exercise of the elective franchise would not be wise and beneficial to the entire community. The entertainment, of such an opinion as thia was certainly no evidence of animosity to the blaok people; and yet it is on this account solely that the blacks aro taught to con? sider them their foes. The writer is in? correct in stating that "they (the oppo? nents of negro suffrage) have watched with intenseBt glee the fulfillment of their predictions of the bad results to spring from negro suffrage. " We do indeed know that if such a ruinous and shameful condition of affairs continu?e in Sooth Carolina, that relief will be given us from ontside, in some shape or form. We know, too, that the more desperate the situation becomes, the more rotten our sham government shows itself to be, the sooner will bs the day of redemption. If tho to 'is not to be a ohange for the better, we would be glad to hare tho machine.run down as rapidly as possible. But this ia a costly ?nd somewhat doubt? ful venture at best, and there is not to? day a man in South Carolina, who has the welfare of hie State sinoerely at heart, that would not infinitely prefer that relief should oome through the good sense of the colored Toting population than from a restriction of their rights through outside influences. The former would be easy, cor tain and permanent; the latter would be doubtful, precarious, and probably attended with v some evil \ consequences. Let the colored people give ns a good, honest, eoonomioal go? vernment, and thus show themselves both able and willing to act the part of true citizens, and all rational objection to their possession of the franohise mast instantly cease. That whioh springs from no higher source than mere preju? dice of race oannot lire long. The white people of South Carolina are ready and anxious, at this very moment, to co-ope? rate with the oolored people in seoariog a better government, and bare been so desirous for more than two years. Though their overtures have been re? ceived with disdain, their appeals with jeers and their oilers with distrust, they are still ready, with extended hands, to make the samo proposals for tho same good and common purposes. They will never remain qaiot and basely submit to the confiscation of their property, to satisfy the avaricious greed of a crew of unmitigated scoundrels. They aro de? termined to get succor in some shape or form, bat they would hail it with more genuine delight and satisfaction from the oolored people, who have th? power to do it if they will, than from any other source. Twenty-two years ago, the remains of Louis Philippe, ex-King of France, were laid in Eoglish ground, in the vault of the palace-ohapel at Claremont. Twen? ty-nix years before that, Louis Philippe then Dake of Orleans-bailt a chapel in the old Castle of Dreux, which he in? tended for a family barying-place. - The improbable happened when Louis Phi? lippe died exiled and forgotten, while the star of Prince-President Louis Bona? parte was climbing toward empire. The improbable has happened again whoo, as tho oablo tells us, President Thiers bas permitted the remains of his old master to be brought to the family vault at Dreax. The sailor son of Loais Philippe brought the body of the Great Emperor from St. Helena to Paris, over thirty years ago. The Prince de Joiuville will be now called apon to assist at a less im? posing pageant than that which attended the interment of the conqueror of Aus terlitz at the Invalides; bat, having already seen three revolution^ two mo? narchies, ono empire and two republics in Franoe, he may find matter enough for reflection us the vault at Dreax closes apon all that remains of tho Citizen King. < m ? ? A New York correspondent remiads us that the words Horace Greeley are made ap of thirteen letters, ono for euch of the old thirteen States. He looks on this fact as a hopeful augury of a return to the simplicity of "the days of Washing? ton and Adams, when honesty waa the role and dishonesty the exception." Oar correspondent then draws a picture of "the good old Horace presiding in tba last year of his term of office at a great 'peace jubilee' held on the cen ten ni ul anniversary of the Declaration of Inde? pendence, and receiving the assurance that bis polioy of universal amnesty bas proved a great success." WHY WHJII THE "WORLD" NOT SDT POBT THE CINCINNATI TICKET?-Because -Firstly. It was not "oar nomination." Secondly. Because "Othello's occupa? tion is gone" if that ticket be adopted by the Democracy-its success being then assured-for the World has all the little influence and success of which it can boast through the popular error it bas propagated outside of New York oity, that it is the organ of the New York Demooraoy. The World knows that Mr. Greeley knows ita utter unreliability and want of influence too well even to per? mit it to play that role under bis adminis? tration. Hence its bysterioal terrors at his adoption by the Demooraoy, and de? termination to destroy him, even at the cost of four years more of Grant. Tbirdly. Because, even supposing Grant should not reward so signal a service, its position as organ, even of a defeated Democracy, would be preferable to grinding a street-organ, to which no one would listen. Fourthly. Because the members of the Liberal Beform party have never advised with, consulted, or trusted a journal which has always done moro harm than good to the party whose side it espoused, and which has always failed its friends in groat emergencies, and fired into its own ranks, as it did in 1868. For these rea? sons, doubtless good and sufficient to itself, the World bas practically gone over to the enemy, and is doing all it can to strangle tbe combination whioh alone can prevent the suicide of the Democra? cy and prevent the re-election of Grant. We do not complain of its opposition, for its support only is damaging; but we ask that it sbould not hoist ooo flag and really fight nnder another. [New York News. Mr. Greeley may now be seen daily at the Astor House, where he has taken a room convenient to that of the Liberal Republican Executive Committee, and where it ie his parp?se to keep his head? quarters for the ?arly part of the cam? paign, at least. Visitors first pass the ordeal of an examination by members of the oommittoe on duty, and if it be found that they are really such persons as Mr. Greeley would eare tu see, they arti conducted to his presence. Mona WAK M AT XIII AL FOR SALE.-The Secretary of War hae reoeived the au? thority of Congreso to sell snob portions of clothing in quartermasters' stores as he may deem advisable. There are now in Btore $13,000,000 worth of clothing, the care of whioh oosts $150,000 per year. There are rubber blankets enough on hand to supply all prospective de? mands for 130 years to qome, rubber ponchos and artillery jackets for eighty years, and blouses for forty years. Correspondence Colombia Fhoonii. ATLANTIC HOUSE, BEAUFORT, N. C., May 25,1872. EDITOR PHONIX: According to under? standing, you have a brief opinion and description of my "present lodging." The hotel here has entertained as many as 350 guests at ono time; it is a delight? ful, healthy and invigorating resort, built immediately over the waters from the Atlautio, having a double daily tide passing under tho centro building, ren? dering cleanliness oertain. The building has a sea front of some 150 feet, is three stories high, and commands a clear and beautiful view of old Topsail Inlet, Fort Macon, (now used as u military prison,) and the Atlantic Ocean for many miles the breeze from which isalmoBt continu? ous, oertainly very acceptable to the weak. Attaohed to the hotel is first rate conveniences for sea bathing, aud for pleasure-seekerB there are billiard tables and sail boats, with plenty of water to sail in. Our party (consisting princi? pally of myself) have just returned from au extensive sail, first down Cove's Sound to Shalkelford Banks, on the At? lautio, then through the inlet and down the ship ohannel to Fort Maoon, then home via Morehead City-say ten miles, all within two hours, having had fine winds. Our captain, mate, steward, parser, etc, (all of whioh were combined in one,) was very interesting and rather communicative, especially on fish; and supposed to be the best posted man on the Bubject of fish sinoe the days of old Ike Walton-possibly einae the days of Jonah; speaking of whom reminds me that six whales were caught off this place last season, or rather five and a calf, (or young one,) a very remarkable thing. The ptinoipal "taker" was pointed out to me with a degreo of pride that ahows at once they know how to ap? preciate a man who can "tako a whale" (you could point out Buch au ono in our inland town.) The health of the people of Beaufort is excellent, which you would observe from a brief glauoe through their ceme? teries. No new graves; no young people scarcely lie in them-all old men and women. The only doctor in the place attended the medical convention at New? born the other day, and on his return found his patients all oat fishing, the nurses giving danoing lessons, tho hoarse painted red and sold to a oircus com? pany, the druggist in the poor house observe what health! This is probably one of the oldest places in this section, and contains some vary respectaule residences, elegantly adapted to Bummer occupation. The piscatorial tribe furuishes the priuoipal artiolo of trade and occupation for the people, and a large revenue is earned from the same. The waters abound in nearly all the valuable species, from the diminutive minnow to the plethoric gudgeon. The obese, sound oyster fat, plump and juicy, rivaling the famed Saddle rocks; the Bri area n armed crab, equaling the lobster in brilliancy of color and delicacy of flavor; the conservative clam; the beautiful silver-bellied trout; the gem of ocean and pisoator, the scol? lop-the beautiful scollop-the prettiest and best flavored of all the tribe. Last? ly, they have the irrepressible sucker; but ee there is no society "for the prc* vention of cruelty" to suckers here, they do not abound to any extent. Barrooms are scarce in proportion. Fifteen miles below here, on the eound, is an island on whioh are innu? merable wild ponies. Occasionally the people club together and have what is called a "pony penning," (they have just had one,) when the ponies are sold at auction, oommanding from 8-10 to 8100. I have examined several, and regard them well worth these figures. The next penning will bo on the 10th of Joly, and it will pay any one desiring ponies to come down; oven the "Roths? child Brigade" could remount here to advantage. Before closing, it possibly might direct the course of some of our Colum? bia people to this point, to know, that the hotel hore is a good one, well sap plied with those appointments and at? tentions that go to make a comfortable homo. Tho rooms, au you infer, are de? lightfully cool; tho beds neat and olean; the table abundantly supplied with the best. Bathing accommodations good, either salt or fresh water; and the greatest comfort of all is, that fiia:; aro almost unknown here. Messrs. Taylor it G. W. Charlotte, who are conduoting the hotel, aro thoroughly alive to the comfort of their guests. Yours, Sec., VOYAGED IC. HEAV? BOBBERY.-The Augusta Chro? nicle and Sentinel of Sunday, says: On last Friday night or yesterday morning a heavy robbery was perpetrated at the Planters' Hotel, in this city. It appears that Mr. E. M. Booker, of Elbert Coun? ty, who has been a goest of the Planters' for the past few days, went into his room before supper Friday evening and changed his ooat, hanging the one which he took off in the wardrobe. Ho left in the pooket of tho coat two 8100 bills and $500 in smaller notes. Yesterday morn? ing he went to get some of the money, and discovered that the two $100 bills had been stolen. The theft was report? ed to the police, bot at last accounts no clue to the thief had been obtained. The charters of the Vanderbilt Under? ground and Swain's Three-tier Roads having been secured by the legislative aotion, and the approval of the Governor of New York, the answer to the ques? tion-shall we havo quick transit al last? depends now solely upon the capitalists, who oDuld with difficulty find an invest? ment more beneficial to the inhabitants of Manhattan Island, or presumably more paying to themselves. An Eng?Bh locomotive was lately ron, experimentally, seventy-seven miles in one hoar. A day last month was oelebrated io Beaufort as the anniversary of the for? mation of the Republican party in this County. Anniversaries always suggest a retrospect. Let as glance at the promises and auticipations of foar years ago, nod thea look to see how they have been ful filled. The young party of 18G8 resolved apon a vigorous campaign against tho abases fostered by tho pro-slavery spirit which had so long ruled the State. It determined upon au honest, ecoaomical bat liberal government of the people by tho people Education was to bo en? couraged; tho obildren of those kept in ignorance for the conservation of slavery were now to be furnished with free schools; overy encouragement was to be extended to those desiring to own land; taxation was to be equalized and all the people were to bear its burdens; integri? ty, morality and competency were to be the qualifications for office; all distinc? tions of class and color wore to be swept away; the moral, material and political standing of tho people was to be elevated by freedom and equal rights. In fact a political milleniim was looked for, and South Carolina was to exohango ber bad eminence, au the hot-bed of treason and slavery, for one of loyalty, good govern? ment and prosperity. How have these expectations been realized? How have these promises been made good? Are the people educated? Lot our schools, dosed for half the year and languishing for means the other half, answer. Are tho people elevated to a higher moral plane? Let our thousand grog shops be taken as an evidence of moral purity. Have integrity and capability been the qualifications most sought after in filling offices? Lot the stato of our finances be tho reply. Have our rulers redeemed tba State from violence? Let martial law and United States soldiers, tho keep? ers of the peace, tell the story. Have the burden-, of taxation been equalized? Ask the merchants who ure paying licenses to State, County und town. Undoubtedly the Republican party bas been a God-send to individuals. Some who never earned a dollar by ho? nest labor have been lifted to high places and now roll in wealth. Some whose impudence and reckless folly should at once havo cousigued them to merited eontompt have seized upon tho stations of statesmen. Utterly without shame, devoid of any ability Bavo cunning, des? titute of personal or political priuciple, they have thus prostituted the noblest political organization of any age. Who have been the greatest sufferers from this disregard of promises, this neglect of sacred duties, this wilful perversion of the designs of the people? It is not the merchant, whoso enterprise has been dampened; it is not the banker, whose just expectations of the profitable em? ployment of capital have been thwarted; it is not tho great planter, whose lands have become a burden to him. Nol None of these aro truly the greatest suf? ferers. To find these, wo must Beek the cabin* of the poor; ia the freedman's hut, where be almost longs for the flesh? pots of Egypt; in tho children growing up iu ignorance; in the youth corrupted by tho license and excess born of politi? cal chicanery, will be seen the true vic? tims of the mismanagement sad short? comings of our party. But thero is re? served a jet more serious evil to be borne chiefly by the same class. It will bo found in the loss of confidence on the part cf tba great bedy of the people of the (Jolted States in tho capacity and willingness of the colored race to select suitable rulers and prodnoe a commend? able local government. That confidence was born of earnest desire. At one time it seemed that the very life of the coun? try depended upon the virtue and fideli? ty of the colored mao, and the experi? ment of universal suffrage seemed to be the only panacea for oar many ills. The feeling that this experiment bae failed is spreading with saoh lapidity that, unless ! oheoked Boon by a change in the courue of our party ia the South, it will create I a reaction fatal to the rights aud privi ! leges of the colored race. The enemies I of that raoe are alert to take this tido of feeling at its flood. For years they have been apparently inert and hopeless. This is only a part of their game. They have watched with intensest glee the fulfillment of their predictions of the bad results to spring from negro suf? frage. They willingly bear their present ills, nay, gladly bear them, though os? tentatiously grumbling; for, in every act of fraud, every waste of means, every increase of debt, every job of ex? travagance and knavery, they BOO the weapons with which to overturn all that has been secured to tho emancipated race.-Beaufort Republican. The Greeley letter was a very neat production, and is an evidence of the want of common sense so easily charged against its author. We should like to see some of tho defamers of Uncle Horace write such an epistle at once so houest and so pbrewd; such a business statement, and yet suoh a conciliatory one. It is alleged to be & bid for Demo? cratic support, but if au honest, clear and positivo expression of opinion is saoh a bid, then let it be so; suoh a de? duction speaks as well for Demooraoy os for the man who bids for Democratic support. It enraged the World and the World's followers, for it was a hard nut for them to crack, but it pleased every one else. The philosopher writes well; better than his leading opponent. . [New York Citizen. There is sad newe for the lovers of beer, for the hop crop of Wiseonsin is likely to be small and of very poor quality this year. This fact will raise the price of the Teuton's beverage, but nothing under the sun-not even pro? hibition-can now diminish tho amcqnt whioh will be drunk.

Scott has re-appointed as Trial Justices H. L. Simmons and B. L. Crook, for York County. What does it mean? Tho editor of tho Union wears a white hat. The attention of parlies engaged in building is called to tho card of Presi? dent Hardy Solomon, relative to ma? chine-made brick. Tho company will deliver at the l^w price of $9 per 1,000. We regret to announce that our es? teemed fellow-citizen, John C. Seegers, Esq., met with a severe accident on Sa? turday night last. While on his way home, his horse shied, and threw the wagon against a tree on Blanding street, throwing Mr. S. to the ground, bruising him about the body and cutting a gash in his forehead. He was np yesterday. Mr. Edgar Bicker, of Sumter, on Sa? turday, passed successfully his examina? tion, before a board appointed for that purpose, as a candidate for admission to the Naval Academy, at Annapolis, Md. We have reoeived the second number of tho J)olly Varden, edited by Miss Volly Darden, at Wilson, N. C. The fair editress has not committed herself for Greeley, but flaunts at the mast-head the name of Joseph B. Davis for coro? ner. She is evidently destined to make a bustle in the newspaper world.

We are highly gratified at being able to announce that active operations will be commenced on the Congaree bridge on Monday next. The contract, as is well known, was awarded to the Watson Manufacturing Company. E. W. Mer? cer, Esq., has charge of the work, and (if what we hear of him is correct, and the authority we cannot doubt,) will push it forward rapidly. The subscriptions received by the Pheonix Hook and Ladder Company have been sufficiently liberal to induce them to order a new track. Action in that direction was taken at a meeting of tho company last evening. Tho temperance societies in this city are gaining rapidly in membership. Chief Juatioe Moses has been chosen by the board of visitors, at the Annapolis Naval Academy, to deliver the address to tho graduating class. PHOZNTXIANA.-Chronic cerebro spinal mendacity is the latest phrase to desig? nate the quality of a constitutional liar. Hand-cuffs are like guide-books, be? cause they are made for two wrists. Confidence contributes more to con? versation than wit or talent. The palmy season of life-the time for squeezing girls' hands. The man who sticks at nothing often runs through more than one ought. A reward of several thousand dol?an is soon to be offered for a woman whe does not own a Dolly Varden, does not want one, and never uses the phrase. A horseman, hearing mention made ol the "Latin Races," wished to know where they were held. Pittsburgh is a fearfully smutty place. Before the doctors can vaccinate any body there, they have to cut their waj with a cold-chisel through half an incl of aolidified coal-smoke. Some of the illiberal organs deolan that there is no word that will rbym< with "Greeley." There is a word which rhymes elegantly with "Grant." It ii "Can't." How is it the rooster always keeps hit feathers so smooth? Because he alway* carries bis comb with him. A New Orleans editor says he "count ed 173 alligators in a sail of six milei along a bayon."

Jlcani wiut He Say?.-Though "con? firmations strong aa proofs of Holy Writ," ana as numerous as the Bands on the sea? shore, were produced to prove that Dr. Pierce, the proprietor of Dr. Hage'? Catarrh Remedy, is in earnest and meant what he says, when he offers 1500 reward for any oaBe of Catarrh which he cannot cure, yet there would be some skeptics and fogies who wordd continue to shoat, "Humbug!" "HTJKBUOI 1" "It can? not be, because Dr. Homespun says Catarrh oannot be cured." Now, this Dr. Homespun is tho identical, good-natured old fellow who honestly believes and persista in declaring that this earth is not round or spherical, but fiat as a "slap-jack," and does not turn over otherwise, the water would ad be spilled out ot Des con Bascom's mill-pond. But astrono? mical solenoe has positively demonstrated and proven that Dr. Home-pun ia wrong in sup? posing thia earth to be fiat and stationary, and medical science is daily proving that ne ia no less mistaken and boland the timea in regard to the curability of Catarrh. In short, it has been positively proven that this world moses, and that medical science is progressive -the opinion of Dr. Homespun to the con? trary notwithstanding. That Dr. Sage's Ca? tarrh Remedy will cure Catarrh, thousands who have unod it attest. Then buy it and use ic, in doubt do not stand, Yon will find it in drug atores all over the land. Talk at tho Toilet.-Every ladj'a maid knows that the bewitching beings who pave their triumphant way witb conquered hearts, regard a splendid head of bau* tne moat effect? ive of all womanly fascinations. They be? lieve, and they are right, that they can lotto as many beaux with the luxuriant ringlete and ? glossy braids aa they can "kill at sight*' with their beaming eysa. Heneo in their "toilet talk" among themselves and with their at? tendants, the merita of preparations for the bair are freely canvassed, and th? latest re? sult of thia disousBion seems to bethe almost universal adoption of LYON'S KATHAIBOH, as an artioie better adapted to piomote the growth and beauty of the "Chief Glory of woman," than any other' at present before the world. Thoy say that without Irritating the skin of the bead, it eradicates dandruff, and that it penetrates below the surface to the roots of the hair, endowing them with new life and vigor. M23}3 A Datoh gentleman, who enjoyed the sobriquet of King of Smokers, lias lately died near Rotterdam, in the neighbor? hood of whioh oity he had erected a mansion, in whioh he had a collection of pipes arranged according to their na? tionality and chronological order. Mr. Klaes, who"had acquired a large fortune in the linen trade, has made a most whimsical will. Ten pounds of tobacco and two Dutch pipes, of the newest fa? shion, are to be presonted to all smokers who attend his funeral. He further de? sired that his coffin should be lined with the cedar of old Havana cigar-boxes, and that his favorite pipe be plaeed by hie side, with matches and tinder, as there , was no knowing what might happen. It has been calculated that during hie life of eighty years he had drunk about 500,000 quarts of beer and smoked more than four tons of tobacco. Brewers and tobacconists should surely raise a monu? ment to snob a pearl of patrons, whose career is calculated to throw the anti stimulant and narcotic sohool into a pa? roxysm of despair. TITS MODUL WHITE KAT.-The New York World gives a paragraph as to the uniforme to bo worn by the Campaign Greeley Clubs of that oity: "The caps and capes whioh were intended to be worn by the processionists, are con? demned, and in their stead are to be submitted white hate similar to the ' re worn by Mr. Greeley in 1856. It ha* a orown four inches Iv ah and a rim two inohes wide, and as it lays in the box presonts a comical appearance. It was brought down from Chappaqaa by a messenger st nt therefor that purpose. The contraot has been given out for the hats, and they are expected to bo ready early next week."
