Before developing our substitute for
cumulative voting, we desire to say a few
words upon tlie election for Mayor of

most significant and suggestive triplicate
of lucky numerals. It is evident, from
an analysis of the vote, that some eighteen
hundred or more colored men must
have voted the citizens' ticket. They
did so because they have become satisfied
that their interests as citizens required
a change of administration in the
city. They must have been men, therefore,
of more than average intelligence
among their fellows to have been able to
see this necessity. They had to endure
reproaches, insults and violence in thus
voting, for, be known, the Radical denies a
colored man's right to vote for a ny ticket
other than that ordered to be supported
by their masters, the party leaders.
The willingness of these colored
Conservatives to brave these consequences
and to exercise the privilege of
freemen to vote for whom they pleased,
proves them, also, men of more than or
dinary character. They are, in fact,
good citizens, and have given the best
evidence of their title to be so regarded
by voting as they did in the face of such
obstacles. These men, therefore, are
qualified for the suffrage, having intelligence
enough to see the right and character
enough to pursue it. The existence
of so large a number of colored
men of this stamp in -Charleston is a
most encouraging fact, and raises the
question whether the same element does
not exist all over the State; and if it
docs, whether it may not be developed
and made available to redeem the State
in the same manner and by the same
means as in Charleston. Those means
were thorough organization, a just recognition
of ?the rights of the colored man,
and a good ca-use. As we said last
Week, we desire to fight this Radical facm

and nail, so to speak, and we do believe
the Democratic party, raising the standard
of the "new departure," can carry
the State next year. We must begin
now to select the colored men who are to
help us to victory. First, we must look
to .their intelligence, and next to their
character; and one by one we must separate
them from the mass of the ignorant,
blind and prejudiced who can never
be made to see the right, or are too corrupt
or too cowardly to pursue it. We must
confine our efforts to this superior class
alone, and show them that the only salvation
of their liberties and ours is the
arrest of Radical progress in the laud.
Let us now organize all over the State,
and at once work out this plan. Let us
show by the -end of the year that there
are two classes of colored men amongst |
us, and that we properly appreciate that
better class who prove themselves good
men and true, and entitled to be distinguished
from the riotous and savage
crew who are ready to murder, burn and
destroy when a citizen dare exercise the
freeman's right to vote for the men and
measures of his choice. Let us make
this movement now, and so surely that
it cannot be made to fail.
Ku-HJnx Outrages and Xogro .Mobs
ia the South.
The very virtuous radicals of the Congressional
Cominitte who are pretending to investigate
the alleged Ku Klux outrages in
the South, are ready, it appears, to report a
stupenduous budget of horrors. They are
already issuing semi-official statements to
that effect. True, they have not had much
time to investigate the matter; but party
and political necessity urges an early, thrilling
report against thoso villainous, incurable
wnito -seeesh" of the South and in favor of
the poor negroes. This is evident from the
hasty action of the committee of the republican
party in Washington, which has already
put in circulation a campaign document,
which is a digest of the pretended facts
brought to light by the Congressional Investigating
Committee, and has requested
the republican newspapers to servo their
cause by publishing the document in full.
We see, then, what a farce, and, at the same
t time, what a gross imposition upon the
country, this radical Ku Klux report
of'.the Congressional Committee is likely
to be. But k it not playing with fire ? Is
not such a one-sided inflammatory report
made for party purposes calculated to do
much harm ? Will it not make the negroes,
who arc committing most diabolical acts,
more presumptuous aud disorderly ? Who
has not heard of the atrocities of a band of
negroes in Chatham county and adjoinI
ing counties, in North Carolina ? And
yesterday we reported a fearful, bloody aud
u.
drunken riot by a body of five thousand
blacks at the Republican Convention in
Uoldsboro', in the same State. Of course
these horrors will scarcely be noticed by any
radical Congressional commit tee,, because they
are perpetrated by the "poor negroes"?by
the allies and supporters of the Radical party.
It is the pretended white Ku Klux that is
made the bugbear to alarm Northern voters'
and to give the administration chance to
exercise a military despotism in the South.
The radical carpet-bag and scalawag public
men?and among them was a Cogressinan
by the name of Thomas?and Stanley, the
President of a railroad, seem to have been
the abettors of the riotous negroes at GoldsbOro'.
Well may wc despair of peace in the
South while the party in power makes misrepresentations
of the state of things in the
South for political objects, while it gives all

its support ana syiupuruy to tnc negroes una
endeavors to crush the native white people
of that section.
The Charleston Election.
General Wagoner, the Conservative candidate
for Mayor, and tho whole ticket, were
elected in Charleston last Wednesday. The
majority for Wagener was 777, which figures
denote both the popularity of the candidate
and the will with which the Conservatives
worked. Charleston is .redeemed at
l ist, and even already her financial condition
is va-itly improved. The result gives a feeling
of pride and sitisfaction to our entire
people, such as has been seldom felt
since the war. We heartily congratulate
our neighbors in the "City by the Sea," that
they can once more breathe the air of freedom,
knowing that their interests are in safe
hands. The moral ctfcct of the victory will
be felt all over tho State, and we hope it is a
presage of victory next year. To the young
men who pledged their lives to have a fair
election, we regard the victory as in great
part due, and Charleston owes a debt of
gratitude to her young sons who dared to do
their duty.
The Xorth Carolina Elections.
We regret to chronicle the defeat of Con-,
vention in the old North State, by a sn:a!l
majority. This is a serious blow, and the
people look with dark forebodings to the
future of their Commonwealth. Wc arc
sorry to note the seeming despair, almost,
with which our exchanges speak of the
matter, and are afraid lest the people, relying
upon their great triumph of last year,
did not enter sufficiently into the spirit of
the contest. But our brethren of the Press
should stimulate their people to renewed
energy and activity, and should remind
them that as met), accustomed to trials and
defeats, they should bear with courage this
single blow to their prosperity. Large gains
were made in some counties, while in others,
importoi repeaters were voted early and
< fton. Thcie is no need to say which party
they belonged to, because there is only one
which is callable of doin<?'6Uch things, to
wit; The Radical I'urty.
Why Don't they Advertise ?
A correspondent of the Christian Neighbor
w 'les:
It is strange hew slow the merchants and
busiuess men of Columbia and Camden are
to learn the value cf liberal advertising. 1
doubt if there is a town of one-third its size
in the Union where this matter is so little
appreciated. We country folks can find
out little about tiie business of the city from
its newspapers. Their advertis/ng columns
scarcely tell us of even a lawyer or doctor in
the place. Recently in rambling over the
city, 1 came across machine shops, stores and
other business places that I never heard of
before, although I take the Neiylibor and
other pane:s published in Columbia. Ilow
strangely blind to their interests! (I was
about to wi de ftapiilly biuid, hut feared you
would not I'ke to print so harsh a word.)?
Really 1 l'ch ashamed and mortified at the
wain, of eu.c prise and common sense thus
exhibited. Why, I do believe the little
towu of Wiuitsboro' gives its paper more advertising
patronage than the great city of
t '?i!it.nit.bi'stuws tin the Dauers published
^ ~ IT 1 A
there. Nut long ago, I was in a store in
Columbia, when a lady cauic in and called
for a certain article, remarking that she had
tried every store where she thought it ought
to be found. The shop-keeper told her it
was not to be got in Columbia. The same
day, I accidentlv saw the very article in a
store which she did not happen to visit. I
have 011 several occasions seut to New York
for articles which I might have bought in
Columbia, but did not know it till afterwards.
Where merchants keep mixed stocks,
as in Columbia, they should adveit'se not
only the name of the firm and place of business,
but their advertisements ought to be so
full and complete as to show everything they
have for sale. If they would draw custom
and thrive, they must do this and keep their
advertisements constantly before the public.
Whether it be sensible or not, I tell you we
country folks will run to 'the stores and
places of business about which we see long
and flaming advertisements. I don't profess
to know much, being a plain bit of farmer,
but I see and bear a great deal, and I can
tell the business men of Columbia that. I
know many of them, and could nume many
of them, too, who lose thousands of dollars I
yoarly because they are too careless, or too
lazy, or too unenterprising, or too stingy to
advertise.
The advertising columns of his newspaper
is the farmer's guide-book when he visits
his market town. Advertising is the very
life of trade. Jf the merchants and business
men of Columbia gcnorally were alive to
their own and the interest and prosperity of
their city, their advertising patronage would
be so great as to compel the city papers to
treble theit present size or publish a heavy
supplement. So thinks and so believes

The Camden Journal and Cumulative
Voting?Our Political Course,
From the remarks of the Camden Journal
on this subject, it appears to us that our
esteemed cotcniporary misconstrues the spirit
and philosophy of the cumulative vote?
"Which the same" we "would rise to explain."
In the first place, we would observe
that our eotemporary states the case in tonus
too strong, when it intimates that the TaxPayers'
Convention laid down the proposition
that cumulative voting was a cure for our political
grievances. Q he language of the report,
adopted by the convention, was carefully
guarded upon this point. It was claimed
that the new method of voting would correct,
in part, the evils under which we labor, but
it was not contended that it would be a cureall.
Put, letting this pass, we observe, in
i the next place, that we do not understand
the adoption of proportional representation '
its "a surrender to the majority." It is
neither a surrender, nor anything in the
nature of a surrender. On the other hand,
it is rather a victory on the part of the
j minority. For instance, in the County of
Kershaw, there are, let us suppose, 2.500
whites and 5,500 colored voters. 'According
to the principal of the cumulative vote, the
minority can secure at least one of the three
representatives to which the County is entitled
in the Legislature. But the cumulative
system does uot restrict the minority to
this one member. If they can iuflucncc the
opposition, they may have votes enough to
cumulate upon two or even three; but tbey
would do this at their risk.
The Journal says: '-Let the advocates
of this measure show us how we are to gain
anything in the Senate by the cumulative
vote, and how in the election of Governor
and all other executive officers ?" We answer
that, ofcourse. from the nature of the system,
the cumulate vote dote does not apply unless
there are more than one to be elected. In
ease of Governor and all other executive
officers we could gain nothing. But it is
also true that icc would lose nothing. In those
cases, we would stand just whore we now
stand, and the majority principal would apply.
But, in all other cases,, there would be
proportional representation?to our advantage?to
the advantage of the minority. But
to couic directly to the point: The gist of
the Journal's objection to tho cumulative
vote, is, that it Heaves no room for the
expansion of the party, or the exercise of
those powers which are the fruits of intelligence,
education, knowledge, experience and
wealth; but "contents itself with a simple
proportional numerical representation." Wc
cannot but think that t':e Journal misappreLarwla
tVio nrnn irl ir?n:il renrosrsnfcifcmn
V..*. r ,
when we fini it coining to such a conclusion.
Proportional representation does not fix
tlu: minority?docs not establish the proportion
between parties. This ratio is subject to
change?subject to all the influence of intelligence,
or knowledge, or experience, or
wealth. There is room fur all possible
expansion. There is, under the cumulative
system, "no pent-up Utica" to contract our
powers. But proportional representation
does this. After all your influences have been
exerted, and the parties stand arrayed on
the field of the ballot, than the cumulative
system, where more than one candidate is to
be voted for, secures to the minority and
leaves to the majority a representation
proportional in its character.
It comes to place its protecting arms around
the minority and to save it fretn being entirely
ignored. Some may prefer to go into
a political contest upon the wild principle of
"nut Caesar ant indlus"?"neck or nothing."
But to our mind it does occur that if
we arc to curb the excesses of democracy
run niad. or to find stable government con
. . 1 1.. .....1
S1SICUL Willi pupunii iuiu uuii uiuvcioui oiu*
frage, we must engraft upon our system of
suffrage the principle of cumulative voting.
If we want representation to be complete?
and this is the essence of genuine republicanism?
no better method to secure it than
the cumulative vote has yet been devised.
As respects, now, other propositions advanced
by the Journal, we find ourselves in
hearty accord. " Wo believe," says ilic
Journal, " there should now be an organization
of the D -mocratic party complete and
thorough." So do we, and at the right
time wo hope to see this done. " We are
i willing," says the Journal, "and prefer to
fight a square out-and-out Democratic party
fight, to allowing the Radicals to walk into
power without trouble." So do wc. "There
is," adds tlfb Journal, " something healthy
in a struggle for the. right, even when we
are beaten; and, on the other hand, a supine
submission to wrong is enervating and corrupting."
So soy u-e. In these sentiments
of the Journal we heartily concur. These
have been our views and are our views. A
distinguished citizen of South Carolina writing
to a friend remarks, in reference tc our
programme: "Iain in favor of a straight
fight, now and hereafter." This is our preference,
also. To raise the "flag of industrial
development?to open the gates of the

Camden Journal.
We welcome our young friend. John Kershaw,
lSsq., to the editorial chair of this
well-established paper. We expect and predict,
that under his auspices the Journal
will continue a career of unsurpassed success,
that was somewhat interrupted by the
casualties of war. Occupying a central position
in the State, and being the only paper
in the county, there is no reason why it may
not be a profitable investment to the publishers,
as well as an instructive vehicle of
thought to the good people of Kershaw. It
is too late to urge upon society the inestimable
value of a good newspaper, and that
community who will suffer a well-conducted
journal to languish, for the want of support,'
subject themselves to the severest reproach, I
and give unmistakable signs of a want of
mental culture and intellectual growth. To
sustain a good county paper, it is not only
necessary that all the people who can read
shall subscribe, but every man who has a
want, or anything to sell, should use the paper
as a means of making the same known
to his neighbors, and send with his subscript
tiou and advertisement the money to pay for
both.
Very few people who read the newspaper
reflect how much it costs in actual cash to
publish the same. The printers and pressmen
are to be paid at least once a month;
they should be paid every Saturday evening
x I
for the only means of support for their families
are the wages they ree'eive as journeymen.
It requires cash to buy ink and paper?to
keep up the supply of type and
make the press work smoothly and quietly.
Add to these rents and other incidental expenses.
and it will bo readily seen that unless
the patrons of a county paper arc composed,
not only of all the reading public of
the county who will advertise freely and paypromptly,
the paper will languish and go
down.
On the other hand, if the paper be liberally
supported, it will continue to improve in
interest and appearance. Tho conductor of
a newspaper takes a pride in it, ho loves it
as a thing of his own creation, and is constantly
striying to improve it in appearance
and reading matter just as a fond mother,
whilo decking her offspring in neat and
1 -1 ~i.l.,lnno lint nniflmif^tn flflnm !inH
ciean.ciDiiico, uuw ?iv/?< ,?
cultivate the mind.
Our young friend comes from- good stock,
and will no doubt bring to his paper not only
the high culture, but the sterling patriotism
and lofty integrity which has made his father's
name a household word in every family
in South Carolina. We wish him every
success, and hope he will make the Camden
Journal a leading paper in the State, and
a creation that he will love and be proud of.
And he will do it if the people of Kershaw
tstand by and encourage him in his honorable
effort. It must be no half-way support,
but an honest, hearty, cheerful assistance.
Journalism, like Law or Medicine, is a profession,
and to make a good editor one mu: t
commence young, study diligently, work
hard and be encouraged. And the best part
of it is, that while the people of the county
encourage hint they help themselves.?Burundi
Sentinel.
GoaD. Faith.?During the canvass, which
has now come to a brilliant close, an attempt
was made by the Radical wire-pullers to
persuade the colored people that the whites
had determined to scratch all the colored
candidates front the Wagoner ticket. They
were told that their names were used as a
blind, and that not a colored Alderman would
be elected although the Citizens' Party were
Biino/.uufnl TV-it. f.hni-ft w.-is no truth in the
infamous charge is showu by. count of the
vote taken on yesterday, 'ihe colored can-f
didafces on the Citizens' tickt ran well, and
arc all elected. They will doubtless make
excellent Aldermen, for they arc responsible
uieu who have at heart the good of the city.
From the beginiug of the canvass the
Citizens' party have kept faith with the colored
pcople-.who wore invited to join in the
brave work of giving to Charleston an honest
and economical government. And the Citizens'
Party stand pledged to secure to the
colored people their every privilege and their
just share of whatever patronage the ciiy
may have to bestow. Thisjs what was announced
before we went to the polls We
repeat it when flushed with victory.
In a few months Charleston will have a
Municipal government at once impartial, intelligent
and sagacious; which will protect
the humblest as well as the wealthiest citizen,
which will know one object alone?the
restoration of the city credit, the curtailment
of expenditures, the promotion of individual
*nnd general prosperity, and the securing to
all conditions of men the blessings of good..n/^Ar.,1
