The New York Herald, of a rooent
date, contains a letter from Columbia,
which gives a tolerably fair view of the
political situation in the State, and a
significant forecast of rapidly ap?
proaching events. There are many
errors of statement, the same old ste?
reotyped, misconceptions and misrep?
resentations, whioh have been often
corrected or refated, but whioh regu?
larly re-appear in publication. They
are stock in trade, and oannot be dis?
pensed with. The writer, while trac?
ing important consequences to its ao
eat with entire fair
. nesB the Tax-Payers' Convention. He
speaks favorably of the Grange and
Tax Unions, as embodiments of the
manhood and determination, as well
as of the substantial interests, of the
country, seeming to object, at the
same time, to the ezolaBion, as he as?
sumes to say, of colored men from
them. We know that a considerable
number of oolored men have joined
the Tax Unions, and they certainly
include many Bopublioaus in their
membership. Office-holders and tax
grabbers avoid them, of course, as
they wonld death. The Grange is a
strictly non-political body, and its dis?
tinguishing outward feature is its so?
cial gatherings. The reason why co?
lored men do not rush forward to join
it, is thus obvious enough. The writer
is grievously in error when he says
that the canvass for Governor in 1872,
when Tomlinson was put up by the
bolters against the regular nomination
of Moses by the nominating conven?
tion, "disclosed the depth of the op?
position of the old-time Democracy to
anything that bears the impress of
Republicanism." Tomlinson was rep?
resented by some Republicans at that
time to be only a shade better than
Moses, and was utterly obscure and
unknown. He was ohampioued by
Gorbin and Sawyer mainly, in whom
nobody had any confidence, It was
proclaimed in the bolters' Court House
Convention aud in several placeB
throughout the State, that they did
not want and would not accept support
from the Democrats. They threat?
ened, if it was tendered, to go back to
Mose?. The fact is, they were afraid
to identify themselves with any organi?
zation that meant earnest opposition to
the Radicalism which was ruining the
country. But, notwithstanding the
impediments thus thrown in their way,
many Democrats did vote for and sus?
tain Tomlinson. This journal advo?
cated his claims as warmly as the oir
onmstanoes would allow, as a ohoioe of
evils. The correspondent surely must
have forgotten the earnest support
given, even two years previous to the
time of whioh he trtfets, to Carpenter
for Governor. It was an effort barren
of practical results, but it stands in
onr recent history to show the concili?
atory spirit of our people, thoir wil
lingnsss to take what looked like de?
cent "Republicanism," if only it
brought them honest govornmeut and
real peace. Another error this cor?
respondent seeks to propagate is in re?
peating the Radical stuff, that there is
an under-current of effort on the part
of the Democracy to secure the re
nomination of Moses. So blind are
these men thut they oannot see that
"the Democracy" consider their work
as regards Moses about finished. They
hare exposed him in every conoeivublo
way, through the length aud breadth
of this whole oouutry, not as a per?
sonal matter, but because he is or was
the representative and embodiment of
the spirit, conduct and purposes of his
miserable party. It is that party thoy
are mining to kill and get out of the
way, in order that thoy may secure
better government instead of the one
it gives, and restore oace more to tho
administration of affdirs honesty aud
fair dealing, and secure to the people
the fruits of their industry and the
advantages of an improved and bet?
tered condition. They, naturally, keep
in view, in order to contemn and over?
throw him, the man who personifies
the abuses from whioh they suffer. As
they are engaged in striking down
Moses, the attempt is adroitly made to
foist Chamberlain in his pluco. Thoy
are thus compelled to divido their at?
tentions. They protest us earnestly
against one of these men as the other.
They will the more earnestly do this,
in the degree that either shall more
fully oolleot and oeutre in himself the
malignant designs and venom of his
party. The writer is more correct,
where he says that he oauuot find aoy
sincerity on the part of the mujority in
the cry of reform whioh is heard over
the State. Their actions in selecting
candidates and their conduot in mass
maoiioga..tell the contrary. He is, no
doubt, sagaoiouB, too, in saying that
fr?m the plainest Indication-, it 1; od?;
? question of tiuVO when tho Conserva
tiyea will again^assame control of the
Oovernment. Their organizations, ex?
tending throughout the entire State,
form a power whioh, aided involunta?
rily by honest party workers on the
other side in the cause of reform, will
shake the rotten Republican structure
to its very foundation, and, perhaps,
annihilate it. This is the best part of
the correspondent's letter. He is a
Radical, in full fellowship hitherto
with the party hero. He is no stranger,
merely traveling throngh und glancing
at things. He knows whereof he
speaks. He doos cot pnrtioipato in
the cant about reform, although, wo
suppose, as a party man, he favors Mr.
Chamberlain's election. Will our peo?
ple boo and prepare for what this Radi?
cal writer seeB? Lot tho Tax Unions,
&o., be everywhere formed aud tho
people organize. The end approaches.
Get ready.
Circumstances Alter Gates.
In his address to the pnblic, Mr.
Chamberlain affirms that the Financiul
lionrd was warranted, by good aud
sufficient evidence, in the appointment
of Mr. Kimptou as Financial Agent.
He expresses his belief that tbe action
of the other members of the Financial
Board, and as individual Stato officers,
in connection with the bonds of tho
State, was dictated by honost motives.
He claims that the purchase of bonds
by the Sinking Fund Board was mudo
in good faith. Clearly none of these
parties were to blame for what Mr.
Chamberlain calls in another plaoe
"the great disgrace of the Republican
party." Although bribery and corrup?
tion became the order of the day in the
Legislature, Mr. C. says elsewhere,
"the rank and file of the party wore so
inexperienced that they did not under?
stand or proporly estimate the evils
whioh were certain to follow tLo bad
government and corruption." Of
course, they were not to blame. Mean?
while, in three years, the bonded debt
was increased abont $12,000,000. And
yet nobody was to blame. Bot in
1871, when these things were going
on, in a letter to Colonel W.L. Trou
holm, Mr. C. used these words:
"Inoompetenoy, dishonesty, corrup?
tion in all its forms, have advanced
'their miscreated fronts,' have put to
flight the small party that opposed
them, and now rule the party whioh
rules the State. * * * My eyes
see it?all my senses testify to the
startling and sad fact."
Whst'i tlie Matter with Murlboiol
It is a noteworthy fact, that all the
Counties in the State hot one have
organized Tax Unions, and that they
are active fn their operations and every
day gaining popular strength. Tbe
one exception is Marlboro. The
strange, unaccountable faot is attract?
ing some attention. Is the influence
of Maxwell so overwhelming there as
to crush the free expression of the
opinions of the people? Are manly
men to submit their judgments to the
domination of an imbecile? Do they
mako no objections to being repre?
sented by the loser of tho "lost resolu?
tion?" Is there no press there, with
its fearless voice? We cannot believe
it. This noble County will arouse
itself, cotuo into liuo nud place itself in
sympathy with tho rest of the Stale.
Organise.
It is stated in tho Now York Herald,
that Marlboro is tho ouly County, out
of tho thirty-two Counties in this Stato,
which has not enrolled its Conservative
tax-puyers. Tho Unions ato iu active
working order nearly everywhero in
the Stato. Abbeville, which lagged
behind a little, wo are pleased to learn
from correspondents, will now pull up
with a rush. So, we hope, will dear
old houored Marlboro. We have big
business on hand. The time for firm
aud determined action draws nigh.
We want tho bust representation that
can bo got in tho Legislature, and we
want tho poople everywhere to bo
united against oppressive tuxes and
oorrapt govornmuut. The immediate
duty everywhere 13 to organize.

It is advisable that tho subordinate

time has been fixed for tho meeting of
the Stato Tax Union, but it may be
called into early council.

Columbia Newspapers ? Thirty
Years in a Printing Oppioe..-Thirty
years ago, to morrow, August 21, the
proprietor of tbe Phosnix made his
debut in a printing office?tbe South
Carolinian, owned and edited by Col.
Atten H. Pemberton. It was tbe first
strictly political paper regnlurly issued
in Columbia, and bad been published
about twelve years. The publication
office was on the South-west corner of
Richardson and Taylor streets, tbe
sito of the present building occupied
by John C. Dial, E-q. By-tho way,
this is uu uufortuuuto locution, :u fur
as tires uio concerned?tbesp it having
been swept in 1811, 'G5 uud 'CS The
South Carolinian was then published
weekly, except during the Session of
tho Legislature, when it. appeared
twico a weck, und among the other
duties of un apprentice, was delivering
the papers to subscribers. In the
spriug of '15, Col. A. G. Summer, of
Nowberry, purchased tho office, und
after a short time associated with him
B. It. Carroll, E?] , of Charleston.
In 1818, Mr. Carroll retired, uud Col.
Summer was again alone. Iu 1810,
Mr. A. T. Cavi8, of Washington City,
bocumo a copartner. Iu 1850, Col.
Summer retired, disposing of his inte?
rest to Wm. B. Johnatou, Esq., of
Camden. Iu 1851, the oflicu was re?
moved to a building ou Stanley's
alley, a short distance from Richard
sun street, where was also issued
Whiltakw's Magazine. The firm of
Cavis &, Johnstou did not prosper, und
iu 1852, Sheriir Starke stepped iu und
sold out tho eutire establishment (in?
cluding the apprentices) to Dr. Wm.
Reyoolds, Col. John Euglisb, Mr.
Wm. Glaz i und others. Very shortly
afterwards, Dr. Robert W. Gibbes
became the purchaser of tho paper aud
removed the material to his building
on Washington street, uear Richard -
son. The name South Carolinian was
still retained?the Slate Rights Repub?
lican beiug merged in it. After the
retiremeut of Mr. Johnstou, in 1S5C,
Dr. Gibbos filled tho chair editorial for
several years and then secured the
services of Franklin Gatllard, Esq., of
Fairfield, who wielded the editorial
pen nutil the spring of 1861, when he
laid down the pen and took up the
sword. During the three years follow?
ing, several gentlemen of ability con?
tributed to tbe editorial columns. In
January, 1861, the South Carolinian |
passed into the possession of F. G.
DeFontaine & Co.?Juliau A. Sclby
and Henry Tim rod beiug copartners.
In February, 1865, the greater part of
the material was shipped to a plaoe of
safety, and on the night of the 17th of
February, the building and contents
were destroyed. The publication of
the South Carolinian was again resumed
in 1866, but Marshal EppiDg silenced
it and the material was Bold and scat?
tered. The Pucenix mado its appear?
ance, March 21, 1865, and the pen of
William Gilmoro Sims, Esq., directed
its course; followed by Messrs. W. B.
Johnston, Frauk Elmore, J. P. Tho?
mas, W. H. McCuw and C. P. Pelham.
Its original proprietor still retains the
management and control of the paper,
and on this tho thirtieth anniversary of
his connectiou with tho press as ap?
prentice, journeyman, foreman, editor
aud proprietor, deems it not inappro?

Biucks and Bbick-makinu ? We
paid a visit, yesterduy, to the brick?
yard now being workud by Messrs.
Taylor & Johnsou?Alderman Joseph
Taylor and Heory B. Johnson, chief
clerk iu Secretary of Slate Huyne's
tifliuc. The yard is known as Green's
? having bceu worked for years before
i ho war by tho Messrs. Greco, aud tho
clay (which is highly impregnated
with ioiuglas.-) is considered the very
best iu this viciuiiy. The greater por?
tion of the brick for the new State
Capitol wub furnished from this yard,
it is located ubout two miles below
Columbia, ou the banks of the canal.
The truct of iuud embraces about 500
ucr?/s, uud rents for $2,300 u year. As
brick-miikiug has to bo suspended
from October until April, there is nc
cessurily a rush du ting tbe few work?
ing mouths. There are ut.out (seventy
colored hands employed?men aud
boys. The proprietors now have con
truct.s for 3.400,000 bricks?2,000,000
fur the new theatre und other build?
ings iu Charleston. There are fire
hoppers ou the premises, four of which
urc kept going mud-mixing; each re?
quires six bauds?two men and four
boys, besides tho mixers. They com?
mence work about 8 o'clock aud finish
their tusk?0,000 brick?by 1 o'clock.
As it is very warm aud ut the name
timo dirty work, surplus clothiug is
dispensed with. In filling the kilns,
tho meu with wheelbarrows deliver
from seventy to 100 green bricks at a
turn, weighing about six pounds. A
kiln holds 250,000 brick, requires six
days and five nights to burn, and con?
sumes about 150 cords of wood. There
are usually about 100,000 green briok
ou the premises. At present, they are
delivering 5,000 briok a day to tbe
United States Post Office and 25,000
to Charleston. The Wilmington, Co?
lumbia and Augusta Railroad baa
built a torn-out within half a mile of
the yard, and not only delivers the ne?
cessary wood, but transports brick to
Charleston and other points. Four
four-horse and tbreo two-horse teams
do the necessary hauling?1,000 bricks
hauled by the one and 500 by the other
at a load. The proprietors contem?
plate building a wooden tramway from
the yard to tho railroad, at a cost of
about 81,000, whioh will materially re?
duce the oxponso of transportation.
They propose to parties contemplating
the erection of factories in the vicinity
of the city to furnish tho necessary
brick and take one-third or perhaps
one-hulf the pay in stock. The senior
of the concern?Alderman Taylor?
superintends the yard, assisted by
Henry Wallace. Everything is carried
on systematically.

Nervous Complications.?Chronic
indigestion, or dyspepsia, sometimes
produces serious disturbances of the
uervous system; but sometimes the
nerves are iu the first place disordered,
und are the cause of chrouio indiges

the disease may have been developed,
it requires for its cure a medicine
which combines the properties of a
nerve tonic uud nn alterative, and
those essentiul qualities aro most hap?
pily uuited iu tho foremost remedy of
tho preseut nge, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. To suppose that aoy con?
siderable number of oar people are un
ucqmiiuted with the virtues of this
famous vegetable stomachic and in
vigoruut would be nn insult to Ameri?
can intelligence. Year after year, for
half a generation, the history of its
successes as a preventive of, and reme?
dy for, all disorders of the stomach,
liver aud bowels, and us a specific for
malarious fevers, nervous complaints
und general debility, Iiuf been written
by those whose health it has preserved
or re-established, authenticated by
their signatures, and published in the
leading newspapers of the country.
The unquestionable proofs of its su?
periority over every other preparation
of its class, have, during that time,
been constantly accumulating, and
have formed au important part of the
current medical literature of America.
Statesmen, philosophers, poets, di?

have distinguished themselves in ail
honorable walks of*life, and whose
names are house-hold words wherevei

voluntarily come forward aud endorsed
this great remedy. These statements,
founded on personal experience, have
naturally had great weight with the
community, and hence it is that Hos

Many who are Bofiering from the
effects of the warm weather and are
debilitated, are advised by physicians
to take moderate amounts of whiskey
two or three times during tbe day. In
a little while, those who adopt this
advice frequently increase the uumber
of "drink*," and in time become con?
firmed inebriates. A beverage which
will not create thirst for intoxicating
liquors, and whioh is intended espe?
cially for the benefit of debilitated
persons, whether at home or abroad, is
Dr. Schenck's Sea WeedTouic. Con
tuiuiug the juices of many medicinal
herbs, this preparation does not create
lau appetite for the intoxicating cup.
