Much paper, ink and laborious effort have
boon expended in rhetorical criticisms upon
the Beauregard movement in Louisiana, and
we propose here to have another turn at it ourselves.
We do not intend to bewail the de
jrenoracj of ihe gallant chevalier so long the \
popular idol of ?outh -Carolina, "wpr do we
deem it essential to throw ourselvcj between ;
hiui and his censors. Suffice it ro eny, that
in our opinion. Beauregard is as good and as i
pure a patriot as his critics, and has earned
a right to entertain and advocate opinions of:
his own. We shall not withdraw our tonfidonee
front him so long as we helicve he means
well, and until he manifests the. purpose
to prostitute his talents and influence to mislead
the people for his own selfish ends, we
will discuss with respect any measures he
may suggest. We believe the term unification,
as applied to any two races of the hu-1
man family, to be founded in a social and
physiological fallacy, and if understood
literally, it is pregnant with mod pernicious
error and would meet with the unqualified
reprobation from all quarters, if sought to
be applied to the two races now occupying
these Southern States. We hold that there
can be no social unification of the races, nor
do we understand this to be the scope of
the Jiouisiana movement. It is rather an
attempt made to overcome the race antagonism
of the negroes of Louisiana, by tlio
advocacy of laws securing to them an equal
position, social and political, so that thenceforward
thcte may be no more pretext for
making the rights of either race the subject
of political agitation, whereby alone the
miserable crew of plunderers, so long in the
ascendancy, have been enabled to maintain
themselves in power, to the ruin of the best
interests of both parties. There is nothing*
as we remember, proposed to be made law in
Louisiana that is uot now law in South Carolina.
These equality laws have uot brought
in? all that Deuce and good government which
we could desire, but on the other hand, no
jiarly in South Carolina now proposes to agitate
these questions anew, nor has there resulted
those social embarrassments tlierc1'roui
that are now predicted of this movement
of the hero of Manassas. The truth
is, nil that we can ever hope for is, that the
two races will be left with an equal chance
. to achieve each its own destinv. Temporarily,
we may have a hard time of it. but surely
the wbiie race can have nothing to foar in
the long run, unless false to its civilization,
its morality and its religion, bet us, then,
examine this movement upon its merits.
We believe it is an honest effort to obtain a j
i\tr? I
lair (TOVrniui m iii lout Kiiij. ?? v mm,
its results will be*, in some measure, to allay |
irritation in tin; eud. I111I tho adventurers
n?w in power will put in moli>ui nil pos-ihlo
devices to income anew the prejudices of j
race, and embitter the canvui-s, as their only
it.cam of success. We look for a systematic |
play upen the pussious nod the fears of the
negroes. They will be at mcd under the pre- :
tome of necessary self-defence, and incited
to uieb conduct :r will provoke retaliation j
by the whites; the federal power will be in- i
voked, the blacks will he united, the whites

The first effect therefore, of any such poli
cy is to inflate the exaggerated self-conceit
of s one. and to e.tcit j the suspicion and in- :
tensity the hatred of others, and hence to alienate
rather than attract. We flnunot, therefore,
go to them, but they can conic to us. It is '
our part to see that there' be no barriers in
their way when they come.

Ccnerul .1 it mi cs i,. Kemper.
? This fciitleinaii, whose honored name is!
written upon the banner of the Virginia con !
servatives for liovcrnor. is one of the most galI
tut and accomplished sons of the "< >ld 1 torn in- I
ion." and well known throughout tlie South j
/ 01 hi distiiu'uisln I ?.crvices during the late i
war. We remeiiiher an incident earlv in.the
war 'hat endeared Kemper to the hearts ol '
some of our 1'almctto Itoys. and gave us a I
\a ting inteie t in his career. I hiring the
battle ot iinlI linn, or l?!.i< kburn's Cord, on
tiie l^tli of July, iHil, three days before
the rout of Manassas, the -lid South Caroli
la Regiment held the position at. Mitchell's
bWd. When T.ongstreet was heavily pressed
a little to the right, Beauregard ordered (
he officer in command to send a section
>f Del Kemper's Battery and a d?fichtnenf
?f light- troops to the heights b#on9 the
L-reek, to create a diversion. ?. The dust occasioned
by the jnovinnent gWu t he Federal ?
artillerists the range of I ho point Jit which the
road Mxmch&l from the swamp, and for
about sixty yards they commanded a straight
reach, which, from the nature of the ground,
no passenger could avoid* traversing, and
every thirty seconds n well aimed shell pop ml
nl.mnr rhat deadly oars. General, then
rv" v *
Major Kemper, of Honham's staff, when this
fire was oiost accurate, galloped across the
stream while a thousand anxious hearts and
twice a thousand eager eyes followed his
dancing plume as lie uc&rcd the critical spot.
Each heart grew still .as ho entered it, and
the ear caught the sound of a coming shell
(hat buret almost as soon as heard, enveloping
the gallant horseman in clouds of dust and
suinke, amid which horse and rider, hat and
plume for a moment were lost to view A
moment after the horse was plunging madly
forward with the rider, and the hat lay in
the road behind, whither it had been whirled
by the windage of the well aimed shell.?
With graceful manege, Kemper checked his
steed, turned leisurely back along the path
of danger, dismounted and regained his hat,
knocked the dust from it on his knee, drew
it jantily over his brow, remounted amid
the enthusiastic cheers of the Carolinians,
which he gracefully acknowledged by a wave
of his hat as the next shell whizzed past
him, and then galloped away on his mission
Our young soldiers had not then had their
appreciation of knightly daring blunted by
familiarity of such exhibitions, and we venture
to say, none who witnessed it will
ever forget Kemper's ride at Hull Run.
The following is the wise and moderate
rdutfuriu of the Virginia Conservatives.?
1
Nothiug but prejudice or foul play can prevent
their success:
"We, the representatives of the Conservative
people of Virginia, in) convention asseml
'ed, do declare:
1- That a contrast of the condition of
Virginia under Conservative government
with the condition of those Southern States
which have bean under Radical rule illlustrates
the wisdom of the people of Virginia
in the adoption of this plan of State policy,
and demonstrates the necesssity of continuing
the powers of the State Government in the
control of the Conservative people of this
Couimunwealth.
2. The chief purposo of the Conservative
party of Virginia is to secure to every eitizeu
of the Commonwealth, whether nacive or
adopted, of the white or of the colored race,
exact and impartial justice and to promote
by wise and beneficent legislation the prosperity
of our whole people.
That the Conservative party of Virginia,
disclaiming all purpose of captious hostility
to Gcii. Grant, will judge him impartially
by his official action, and will cordially cooperate
in every measure of his administration
which may be beneticieut in its design
and calculated to promote' the welfare
of the people and to cultivate sentiments of
good will between the different sections of
.L . IT
u?e i' iiinn ?
J. Wc recognize a.'i a fundamental truth
that upon the intelligence and virtue of its
people must rest the prosperity, power arid
permanence of a State. We point with
pride to the successful establishment and
progress of the free school system of Virginia,
inaugurated and conducted under circumstances
of peculiar difficulty, for which we
are indebted to the wisdom and zeal ofn Conservative
State Government. Liberal provision
ought to he continued for the support
and extension of the free schools for the
white and colored races respectively.
5. That the intercts of a large section of
this Virion, no less than those of Virginia,
demand the speedy enlargement and comple- |
tion of the great James River and Kanawha
water line that should connect the waters of
the < Miio with those ot the Chesapeake, affording
to the teeming population of the West
cheap transportation of their products to the
points of shipment and marts of trade in the
Hirst The completion hy the Government
of this great design < f George Washington
would bean additional homl of union between
tin' communities who -o iiradircts and com
modifies would pars over (ho line of this
to:iI national work.
I.ttiicttsli'r Court PunI poued.
.Ind^e Mackcy countermanded the order
for uii extra or adjourned Court at Lancaster.
which was to hu\c been held last week,
whereupon, the ,)/.'/</.r remarks: ' Considering
the fact, that we have had no civil
business of any consequence transacted in
our courts for "i'fr ttrn ///or#, and that the
last term for his country was -'cut short"
with a promise of cleaning out the dockets |
at this term, and that the State's business |
will very probaldy occupy the most of the
time allotted for the October sitting, our poo- j
pie. especially those immediately interesed,
regard this last order of Judge Maekcy as a
hardship which way work to thoir injury. I
"independent ofvlie expenses which fall
upon the county, there are eases in suit of
loll- standing upon the dockets, which,
in justice to the parlies interested, should bo ,
settled. Witnesses are dying out; costs are i
accumulating hy tho related summoning of'
witnesses, tho low of t ime in nfteiidonoe, A*c., '
are no fritting eonsidor.itiotis.
.It is iiitiiiiatcd, ihat a petition setting forth
the loots, will ho forwarded to his Honor,
the Chief .lustier, or the proper authority, '
praying for an extra term of Court lor this
minify lor the hearing of the civil hndness
at present on the dnekets. Personally, we
are not interested in any suit in court, and
do not say any thing in a caption* spit if. luit

Public Weigher*.
One of our citizens has addressed the
Sumter New*, asking information as to the
working of the ordinances on this subject,
in Putatcr, and We re-pubHah the response.
There can Ire no objection to the creation
of the office, leaving it optional with all parTies
tb employ the weigher or not. Wo think
it would tend to stop cavil and suspicion,
but have some doubt of the system meeting
with favor when it is attempted to he put in
practice.
"In reply to the inquiries of our Camden correspondent
as to the practical working ol' our
system of Public Weighing, in Sumter, we will
elate that we have a sworn Public Weigher,
whose business is, to weigh all produce bronght
to this market,and to give the party applying
tor his services, a certificate of the weight of his
produce. We have a large Platform Scale, for
weighing wagons and cRrt* loaded with hay,
l'odder, oats, &c., on which the vehicles are
* ? - ? 1.
unven ana woignea. ana nitcrv.-urus
when their loads are thrown oif. The actt
weight of produce i3 thus very easily ascertained.
The Town Council have Cotton Scales, also,
and formerly required ill of our MtfffbaYits, making,
purchase of Cotton, lo send the same to
the Public Scales, ou the Public Retire; to be
weighed by the Weigher. The Merchant b objected
to doing this, because the Cotton had to be
unloaded and reloaded in the operation, entailing
much inconvenience and trouble, and some
expense, upon them. Qpe of ntjr Merchants refused
to carry his Cotton to the Scales, for the
purpose of making a test case, which tens car
ried before Judge Melton, who decided thai
Council had no right or authority to impost
such a condition upon the Merchants. Since
that (Jpcisiop was rendered, the Public Weijrhet
weighs each Merchant's Cotton at his particulai
place of business, npon such Merchant's own
scales, and gives him a certificate of the weights
Thi? arrangement works well, and. we believe
affords satisfaction to all parties interested
both buyers ni'! sellers. We have heard no ex
preesion of dissent from any quarter, siuco ii
was inaugurated.
Our system of linvinir all nroduce hrouffht l<
O I - c
this market, weighed by n Public Weigher, i
highly satisfactory to the farmers and planter
| of the surrouuding country, and we have m
' doubt thai our Kershaw friends will lie pleasei
I with a similar arrangement."
The Lieu Law.
The Clarendon /Vr? urges the repeal n
| the lien law by the General Assetnby at tin
j next meeting. It says:
j "We have come to the conclusion, from see
! its practical workings the present year, that tin
I repeal of the lien law is imperatively deuiandei
as one of the first nets of the Legislature. I n
(|itesttonah1y a good denl of suffering will he en
tailed upon a large portion of the agricultura
masses for a time, by the failure to get nceommo
dation in the absence of any special legislaiioi
to protect parties advancing to them, but in th,
end the effect will be.beneficial to the country
More than all other causes combine<l, the systen
is producing demoralization of lnbor and enrich
ing the few at the expenses of the many. Le
the cultirnlorH of tho noil endeavor ill thpnh?enci
of the lien law, to build up a ererlit for them
Helves with the merchant nnd factor, hv a c..n
tract observing puntilioiisness. and they will nee<
do such helps, and the material prospect* of oui
country will he greatly enhanced. The elMhfu
and indolent new depending upon eeenring a tor
pounds of bacon nnd a fnw bushels of corn, an.
living the greater portion ofthoyeni upon Lined;
berries, fish nnd wild game," v ill becompellet
to go to work and produce something uiore 'hit J
their lkiy stomnch's consume.
Naval Preparations eok War ?The
New York World says:
Facts arc not wanting to ahow lliat an effort
in in progress in administration < ito pro
vuke trouiile with Mexico, and this heing tin
case, certain military and naval preparation'
now going on at New Orleans audit * vicinity art
not without their suggestiveiiesj. Warlike pre
pnrations arc active in that city nt present cvci
the following facts, to wit. that two naval'officei
hare recently arrived there to recruit for lite
unvy : the gun boats in the port are >>cing prepared
for sea ; officer- of (leneral Emory' tafl
have just returned from an inspection ot the Gull',
forts, which nro being heavily strengthened.
aud, finally, forlifiieatiotis are to be immediately
constructed on Grand I tie. All this activity
may only imply a suddden impulse of industry
on the part of the Navy Department, or again it
tnaymean that the Administration is prupnring
for an emergency which it may provoke it-elf.

Her foot becoming entangled in the stirrup,
