A Solid North vn. A Solid South.
Tb# recent elections in tha great 0
States of Ohio and Iowa fully satisfies a
us as to about what is the political sta- 1
tus in the North at present. It is deep- n
1 y to be deplored, and is extremely uu- *
favorable to the oountry. Living:, as a
. ?j i d
we do, under on? government, unu uuviDg
a common interest, it is a pity that D
the two great factions of this country, c
which a few yearn age were engaged in
internicene war, should be now arrayed
in this manner. We can see but little
remedy for it, and can only look to c
time, the great enre for all evils, to heal }
and bind up the trouble. The South, c
unfortunately, after the bloody strife, t
was governed and ruled by a let of peo- t
pie so foreign and alien to all her inter* j
est.?, that the conditiou of affairs here ]
was worse than war. Our people bore {
r ~ - ""-"t nAh nnt.il t'nr*

bearance had ceased to bo a virtue did |
they make any resistance whatever. ?
As if by divine inspiration, and certain- j
ly with diviie approval, they rose up 1
and threw off the galling yoke. iNotby t
force of arms, as is charged ; not by j
sword and fire, bnt with the peaceable |
agency of the ballot. This gave us a <
solid delegation in Congress, and placed |
eur State affairs in our own hands, i
The revelations of rascality that were i
brought to light proved that we were !
right, if nothing el6e did, and was a i
fall jnstification of our position. It i
verified all that we had said, and was i
proof positive to the world that we ]
were right. In spite of this, however, |
our Northern brethren have taken a mis- '
taken view of things, and they charge i
that the power of 1860 is now being 1
resuscitated. That we are growing in
defiant strength, and that the present
generation will walk into power with
the full plume of war floating to the 1
breeze. Perhaps the lenient manner in '
which these criminal have been treated '
may hare had something to do with it. 1
Of this we are not positive, but it is 1
deeply to be regretted that sueh is the
case. Mr. Blaine, Mr. Conkling dnd '
Sherman have but to hoist their bloody
flag, denounce nod misrepresent us, and 1
they have a following. Col. Butler, to
and zest to it ail, must carry on his '
"nigger dogs," and the play is complete, '
the icenery is lovely for Radical eyes, '
and the great demoniactic farce be- '
comes a reality. Well, so it is. >ve '
cannot help it. We must be patient, 1
and bear the ills we have. Right will
prevail, and as it i> oar standard, let us 1
inarch on without trembling to the final <
goal. t
s
Oar State Fair. r
We are exceedingly gratified at the c
present outlook for oar State fair. Our ^
people seem determined to make it a ^
etiAAACc anrt frmn all nn*rfi?r<? Wft leam -
of the flattering outlook. This is en* B
couraging. It is time for South Caro- t
lina to show by her public exhibitions .
what she is capable of, and in no wise e
can she do this as well as at her annual I
fair. The Northern and Northwestern
States pride themselves upon this great
gathering of their people, and it has
added much to the growth and wealth
of those States. Let us then do our all
to make it a success, and let our people
turn out and meet each other. A friend
ly shake of the band, a good strong grip
and an interchange of views will do i
much to dispel gloom and renew the old
feeling that used to exist in oar State.
We trust that the turn out will he large, ^
and that the heavens may be propitioas
for the occasion.
The Crops.?Their Results, ami C
What is Best to be Done.
We believe that a very wide range
and 'atitude ii given to newspaper men
in their range as advisers, counsellors,
Ac., and this being so, we venture, at
this important season of' the jear, to
throw out a few suggestions. The rj
crops, as a general thing, are not up to
the high standard that thej at one time
promised. Corn in many sections is a
failure, and cotton far behind. This,
with the heavy decline in the price of
our staple, makes thing very serious in
many instances, and every possible
remedy (should uow be employed to ar- j
rest the evil sequences of such a state j
of affairs. In no way can it better bej
done than by planting a full crop of all |
of the fall products. Oats, wheat, tur-j
nips, &c., will all tend to lighten the ]
burden, and in the pinching months of j ^
May and J une will come in as a grand j

Dd see that we are not behind. In

t avoided, and much good accom- '

(7ol. Butler auid His Blood
Hounds.
Sometimes we are unable to form any
ipinion whaterer of human nature.
iVe see so much of it,. in its true or
leformed state, we know not which,
hat we are frequeitly befuddled. In
his'connsotion, we are obliged to ex;
)ress our great indignation at Colonel
Butler's operations jn New York.
Surely if this "to do" that he is natcnog
op is an index to his character, he
>elong3 to a very low type of mankind,
ind in no wise displays the foul or
udgement of the noble name that he
mrs. We are glad that ha is no kin
;o our illustrious Senator. He is showng
to the N*w York people what we
inow nothing about?that is a real pack
)f blood hounds; and we will e?en go
further and venture the assertion that
aiuety out of one handrcd are totally
ignorant of this radical devise down
South. Of cours^ he is pandering to
the lowest taste of the vulgar populace,
and at the same time catering to the
radical^fanatics. We presume be is
hired to do this dirty work, or he ex*
pects to make something out of it.
ro say tho least of it, he draws his
rj?o??roo if fh?q hfl a nleasurc. from a
very muddy cistern.
The Hired Uonvlcts.
The sweet sounding melody from the
persons who hired the State convicts
from the State penitentiary, is a mockery
and a sham. It is an absurd idea
to suppose that the enormous mortality
there reported could hare occurred unless
brutality and outrage were the order
of the day. We charge, without
fear of contradiction, that the contractors
of the Greenwood and Augusta
Railroad are responsible for this enormity.
Upon a recent visit to Columbia,
we were credibly informed that the
backs of these convicts were in some
instances so lascerated that they were
is offensive to the olfactories as they
nrert to the eyes. This is a. shame.
We know that the penitentiary is a
jlaco where sharp rigour should be exircised,
and the convicts should learn
hat it is to be no bed of roses; but
inch acts as these are disgraceful, and
eflect upon our people no little disredit.
We bslieve the directors of the
lenitentiary to be innocent, but in or- j
ler to prove ttns, we can upon mem to
how up this terrible disgrace. It is
ow goiog the rounds, aud in justico to
hemselves we call fir an explanation.
