COLUMBIANS. C. Tuei?aj Horning, Hot. 10,1874. Th* ?emocratio Party and the Colored People. The question of treatment of the colored race is one of the moat im portant which the grand sncoeas of the Democratic party will devolve npon it. The defeated and disoom flted Republicans will, of course, en? deavor to stem the tido of this suooess, by 'reviving as many of the war cries and reconstruction policies oh they can. They will represent that the liberty of the newly enfranchised people can ouly be consummated and placed beyond contingency by those who have claimed to be par excellence their pecu? liar friends. We shall expect to see inflammatory appeals in their behalf. They will pretend that their civil rights, their .privilege of the suffrage, their manhood itself, will be all jeo? pardized unless they aoutiuue in the position of their protectors But we 'expect to live to see them routed from even this position, and tuair absurd claims in this regard aoutosted. The world moves und is moving ra? pidly iu this country. The co? lored people are not stationary. They are becoming enlightened as to the falso attitude iu which oiroum utanoes and the interested designs of bad men have placed thorn. They aro beginning to feel the responsibilities of good citizenship, and naturally dis? trust those who have imposed upon them, by using them as tools to ad? vance their owu ends, and by placing them in opposition to the peace, ad? vancement and prosperity of the States where their lot has been cost. They will just as naturally be careful about the formation of now alliances. There will be a remuaut of tho old an? tipathy to Dem icrais to be surmount? ed. But surmounted it will be, and those considerations of interest, policy, good feeling, good government, which 33n only, be promoted m the end by JOftUal understanding between the two races, will assert their proper sway. We look, therefore, to see in no great while the Democratic white man and the hitherto Radical blaok man banded together in political ac? tion. We find our thoughts upon this subject so well conveyed in an editorial article in the New York Herald, that we transfer it mainly to our aolatans, with our unqualified endorse? ment of its soundness, good sense, and spirit of justice. A high'duty is now imposed upon our people in the South, and, accepting with thanks the compli? mentary langnage of tho Herald to the organizing faculty and talents for con? trol of Democratic politicians, North and South, we must, at the same time, be heedful of its suggestious in onr dealing with the sensitive Nor.h. It is a great thing to regain political con? trol. It will be the solution of our own troubles, and the restoration to ns of our just politic.il power. We must be on our guard that we do not Jorfeit by auy rash or ill adoration, auy element which tends to the achieve? ment of the great result. Our safety, oar escape, lies in forming into line with the great Democratic movement which is sweeping the country. Our duty and our policy blond iu the deter? mination to make friends of the colored \joopie, and in ihe cordial recognition and enforcement of their full rights. But, as we said, the whole problem has been so well disoussed by the Herald, that we forbear any further re? marks of onr own, and ask the atten? tion of our readers to its just observa? tions:. "We have uo doubt," it suya, "that the rights of the negroes will be uioro secure in Democratiu than in Republi? can bauds. It is the tendency and effect of the Republican policy to anay the negroes iu hostility to the bust classes of the Southern popula? tion, and thereby obstruct the ascend? ancy of inteiligeuoe, character and property in Southern politics. Negro suffrage has proved to be a great evil, chiefly on account of the divorce ef? fected in the South between numbers and intelligence. The Southern blacks have been formed into a political party nnder outside guidance and control?a party which had a set of interests, or supposed interests, separate from' the general interests of the Southern com? munity. In a healthy state of politics there is a 'solidarity' of feeling be? tween the prosperous and the poorer classes, and although there may bo two parties?as there always are iu free countries ?Ihey are composed uu both sides of the rich and the poor, the in? telligent and the ignorant. It in the prerogative of intelligence to coulrol ignorance, and the chief evil of South? ern politics since the war has consisted in such an organization ol the Ulucltu as has arrayed them in opposition to the enlightened local fouling of the communities with which their lot is east. But as boon us Federal influence shall oease to control the negro mind, intelligence and oapuoity will re-assert Vhoir sway and negro voting iu the Sooth will be as safe as the immigrant vote baa always been io the North. The Democratic- party will have no temptation to deprive the negroes of the right of suffrage, because- it will have no difficulty in coutrolling the negro mind when the potent- Federal influence oo-operatea with loool intelli? gence instead of frustrating and de? feating it. "Even ander the great disadvantage of having the Federal iufluecco op posed to them, the Southern Demo orate have inude some headway in con? trolling the negro vote. In the recent election In Louisiana, quite a propor? tion ut the negro citizens acted with the Democratic party. As soon as Democratic ascendancy is established iu Washiugtou, Democratic negroes will be as common in the South as Republican negroes, aod the uegro question will then cease to be uo ele? ment of disturbance. Thu true intv rests of the negroes are identical with the true interests of Southern whites. The negroeB cannot prosper wbeu the community in which they live is im? poverished. Tbey can find remune? rative employment only wbeu the wtfeels of business are iu full uctivity. Ii capital yields no profit, lahurcanuot expect constant employment or good wages; aud tho most important lesson the {Southern negroes have yet to learn io, that they oauuot thrive on tho de? pression aud ruiu of thu owoeis of property. Their credulity has been too long abused, aud their simplicity deceived, by interloping demagogues, who have iuouloated the idea that they have a Hoparate interest, from their white fellow-citizens. This elate ot things is likely to continue, so long as tho uogro mind is led by thu Republi? can party; hut withiu a year or two after it is left to local control, a major? ity of the negroes will hu steady Do inocratio eotera, aud the negro pro? blem will disappear from our politics. "The Demooratio politicians both of the North add the South, have always displayed a remarkable capacity for controlling ignorant voters. There bus always beeu a large class of uned? ucated whites in the Southern Stutos, but there was uo section of the couutry whose politios, previous to tbo war, wo o so completely controlled by its intelligent classes. It has beeu iu former times the active party iu ex? tending suffrage; it has always been foremost iu defending the political rights of Citizens of foreign birth; it has ulways felt the most undotibtin^ confidence in its ability to array the most despised orders ot the commu? nity on its own aide iu politics mid make them its faithful allies. The Democratic parly has u genius for managing such classes of voters, uud it would belie its antecedents and ten? dencies if it should attempt to disfran? chise the Southern negroes instead of attempting to manage tbem. It* past opposition to negro suffrage is* a tran? sient phase of politios which has beeu farther prolonged than it would have been if the Freedmeu's Bureau and the carpet-bag influence had not got so decided a start in the coutrol of tho negro mind. Had the South been left to itself after the elective f anchuu ??s conferred on the blacks, the South? ern State governments would have fallen as completely under the influ? ence of the old governing classes as tbey were wbeu the same classes so successfully managed the uuedncated whites. Nothing la more certain than that the mass of the negroes will never act independently iu politics. It is their destiny to be led. They have thus far beeu led by the Republican party, and arrayed by it against tlio enlightened public sentiment of the Southeru commuuities; but from the moment the Democratic party gains control of tiie Federal Government the Republicans wilt huve no advantages for noting on tbo uegro mind, which will theu fall under tho emit ml of local opinion. A war of races cau iu uo way bo ho surely averted as by giv iug the intelligent dulses of the South au opportunity to exert their natural ascendency over thu uegro mind, and subordinate it to the ideas und public sentiment of their section. A war of j races would he, suouer or later, iuevi j table, if a distant outbidu influence were kept perpetually acting ou the I negro inind und moulding it into j.-a- | lous hostility to the white population." Usually, eleotion news has opened weil for the Democrats, and then grown rapidly worse, as the official re? turns came in. Tko contests of this year have proven an exception to the rule. Day after day the news gels better. At first, tbo Democrats had only fifteen majority in the House of Representatives, then twenty-five, then fifty-four, and now, after all the re? turns are in, tho telegraph puts it at seventy seven. Better still, tho States which have gone Democratic will olect Senators enough to reduce the Radical majority in the Senate to eight, possi? bly six. At this rate, it won't take lung to got a two-third:* majority iu the Blouse and a good working mnj iri ty iu tho Semite. -4^*-* Neolby ?The Courier Journal re juices more over Negley's defeat in Pennsylvania than Butler'? in Massa? chusetts.

Tue Fair ?The gala week begins to-day at the Fair Grounds. Yester? day was bustle, bustle, bustle nil over the grounds, aud to-day, doubtless, the upparent confusion will be in? creased. The Secretary's office was a scene not often witnessed hereubouts. All bands were busy from early morn? ing till late at night, and not more than half the entries were completed. The stock department is elegantly iiiied up. Thoroughbreds from Boa ton, New York, R'ohmond and South Carolina have occupied all tho stalls on the Fair Grounds and many in tho city; heavy and light draft stallions, marcs, fillies and colts, ponies, males and jacks are on exhibition from all over the Stute. Tue cattle htalts and sheep pens urc full. The bogs aro not uumerou?, but very tine. Oor farmers uro above raising hogs, it seems, aud have lost their lovo for bacon; at least, home-made bacou. Chickens aro orow iug, ducks q'lacking, pigeons oooiog, rabbits nibbling und dogs barking all over tho grounds. The mechanical department is well tilled. The plough? ing match for a premium of 8100 seems to be the anticipated feature of the Fair. And the ladies' department is full of eatables, drinkables, wearables and all that could be wished for. The presence cf the people is all now that is lacking to make this Fair the grand? est success since the war, aud no doubt the crowd to-day will be as large as it ever is ou Tuesday of Fair week, and this afternoon's trains will iucrease our populution by several hundred, per-? haps thousands. The programme for to-day is very tine. At 10 A. M. tho exhibition will begiu by a display of cattle in the are? na, each led by the baiter. From 12 till 2 P. M. tho horses will be exhibit? ed, first by the halter, followed by saddle, single and double harness horses. The exhibition oi eal'le will bounder the charge of Superintendents James McCutchen and U. A. Meetze. The cxiubition of I orses will bo ma? naged by Siiperiutt udenta Johnson Hugoud aud W. H.

The members of the committees are respectfully requested to call at the Secretary's oflloe promptly at 9)<j o'clock this morning. tbe Tbutu OF the ?FF?IH.? A gen? tleman from Edgefleld, who Is tho? roughly acquainted with ?11 the par titulars of the Ute election, informs ua that not a gun or pistol was fired oo that day, exoept at Liberty Hill. | A colored man, by uame Nobles, went to that precinct, ss he said, to raise a fuss. He slapped a white boy's face, and struck a white man with a slosg shot, and was killed. There were some quarrels, as usual, elsewhere, bat no collisions. Tho most orderly election our informant ever saw was at Edge Qeld Court House. Home Manufactures .?There ia on elbibition at the Fair Grounds a large and magnificent lot of machinery and castings of all descriptions, wbiob are entirely borne manufactured, inclodisg the paintiog, bronzing, &o. They are from the Congaree Iron Work?, Major Johu Alexander proprietor, and reflect great credit upon his skill and superior workmanship. The list of articles ia too lengthy for enumeration here, bat we advise all visitors to the grounds to go and see the collection, and hence? forth know that there can be as fine articles in that line manufactured in Columbia as can he obtained in the North. Indian Summer ?This is the Indian summer-time. Nature, seemingly re? gretful at being compelled to unloose tho restive Boreas aud let him go howling over the world, gives us a short respite after the equinoctial storms, wherein we may warm our? selves in the sunlight once more before tho price of coal shall begin to soar. The days ate warm; the skies wear a sort of subdued cerulean hue; the hill? tops are decked in red and gold; the valleys lie half hid in the hazy blue cf the atmosphere, and?persimmons ace ripe. It is the time when the beasts of the field aud the fowls of the air be? gin to cast ubout fjr their winter boat ding-bouses. The grizzly bear spends his afternoons in examining bids for frost-proof shakedowns. The partridge and rabbits ore industriously engaged in staking off their territorial laud claims. The wild fowl have bought their tickets over tho various air lines, and are now winging their way to sunny Southern duck ponds. It would seem that this is one of Dame Nature's shopping seasons. She is out looking for furs, nnd getting her shoes half-soled before the snow falls. Of course, it would be sheer folly on her part did shd not court the weather clerk for a few glimpses of sunshine to enable her to do her trading com? fortably. The school-boy falls a prey to the seductive hiobnry.nnt anA al? luring cniuqnepiu. He imbues his hands iu walnut juioa, and is happy. Verily, if he be a real and true boy, there is no good in him. Now, too, the dusky aborigines of the Western plains pat new feathers in their scalp locks, auu spend the day, from early morn till dewy eve, in chasing the lus? cious buffalo. But when Luna hangs her silver cresceut or golden shield, as the case may be, in the sky, he does a-wooing go, for it is the red warrior's love-making time. Thun, between buf? falo steaks and soirees, be is in his glory, and forgets that chill December means icicles and small-pox, and an nuseemly scramble for Government blankets und fire-water. To him the season is the mutt auspicious of all others. He regards it as the gift of his most honored deity, the god of the South-west, who sends him the gentlo South-west wind, aud to whom he be? lieves his soul will go after death.
