It seems .vain for tbo South ever to
hope for anything like fair and friendly
dealing at the hands of Northern 'politi
cians.: Tha voice of the South has hardly
been heard in assent to tbo offer of Gree
ley Instead of Grant wlien a conference of
jealous sore heads meet in New York and
try .if it ia not practicable, to defeat the
chances of the . only Yankeo that the
whole white south would have endorsed;
because he is the only i i prominent; man
among "them who is not prominently
known as going into politics in a spirit
of trade. Finding Grant a villainous
colt they offered,to.trade him for Gree
lcy, and our prompt endaremsent of Gree
ley causes them tolook his mouth and
examine his points once more. Maybe,
think they, they are taken in. No mat
ter of principlo is it with them.
The?nly way to deal with these people is
entirely outside of principlo asyou would
ahorse trader. Judge for your self and
make your offer. In this case we trade
for Greeley on principle, we prefer
him to Northern democracy and
Southern radicalism, wo want him
and they cither give him to us or take
Grant. Let the Baltimore Convention
(by all means the Southern part of it)
with ?rie voice say this. "Let us have
Greeley orive give you back Grant"
As for Charles Francis Adams he would
not beat a policeman outside ofMassadi.u
sotts. Greeley is our man?they can not
offer another reliable and available politi
cal man. They may have others honest
but they would run verv light. The
North docs not very much herald honesty
rxR be. Greeley we can count on, he
gives us all we can demand, without the
demand; we simply assent with diguity,
devoid of arrogance. Wre are glad to
see that the political slate of the conven
tion showed a market balance in favor of
our man Horace Greel cv.

We have in the last fortnight several
very fine rains, and up to that time a fine
sunny spell for the killing of grass and
cultivation of the land which was rather
hastily prepared from the lateness of the
winter season. The crops have done
splendidly and everything looks fully up
to lnst year's show at this time. The la
bor market is rather empty owing to a
very generally increased disposition of
sthc colored men to hiro their patches and
idle when not actively engaged in said'
patches, which is only when nbsotutely
necrssary and not always then. When
we say idle we mean idle?they do not
even go out to the political meetings,
which take place now prety regularly.
In the last issue of tho News Mr.
Knowlton retires from the Editorship of
that paper. While we regret to part with
his professional association, we arc pleas
ed for friendship sake that he has seen
proper to do so, as his position in politics
was painful to our personal relations with
him. Mr. Knowlton proposes leaving
this State and going elsewhere to seek a
competency for his family not afforded
him here, which we sincerely hope he
may obtain; and we believe that he car
ries the good wishes of every member of
the community. Here among us ho has
made very many warm friends and has
gained both here and#clsewherc a sound
reputation as a lawyer of brilliant parts
possessing an astute mind well versed in
the lore of his profession. For him un
fortunately, there is no opening here for
another lawyer, in fact we arc somewhat
overstocked in the article already.

What becomes of the interests of the
people us expressed iu the memorial
bunded to this Council, signed by over
seventy citizens?more than one-half tho
number of voters at the last elec
tion. These gentlemen suggested that
t heir wishes might possibly bo entitled to
consideration. And their memorial was
laid on the table. Almost no notice was
taken of it so fir as the public know.?
This Town Council and this one Commis
sioner don't make the people, by long
odds. They are repr?sentatives of the
people, and the servants of tho people,
and the wishes of the people should bo
their guide. Oho Councilman may shrug
his shoulders, and, in answer to a re
monstrance of one of these same people,
may say, "Wo have tho majority in
Council." But that majority may not
exist always. I am perfectly sure that
did this Council exhibit a decent regard
for the wishes expressed in the memorial,
so as to take the views of tho citizens of
Orangeburg, they would find no majority
out of Council inlavor of tfcii streit'^'
"Self interest," quoth Liniment, "has
swallowed up everything." Where ??
Surely not in those 70 voters who pro
test against this matter. It is but rea
sonable to suppose that of those memorial*
ists, but a very few are lot-owners?few
favorably affected by this street?and
they arc entitled to tho credit of protest
ing against this scheme as detrimental to
the public good. It is but fair to do
them the justice to think thoy were actu
ated by no self-interest in the matter;
but that while owning some of this prop
erty which is to be wrested nway from
the owners, they still feel, as public citi
zens, that a great wrong is done to the
public?as public citizens are indignant
at the violation of private rights, and the
utter disregard of a great fundamental
principle exhibited before them. There
may bo self-interest when they reflect
tnnt tho wrong done to one to-day may
be reflected on them to-morrow, and no
one knows upon whom the whims of this
choice body may next inflict a blow.
If these memorialists or the majority
Own no lote?if they can* see no public
benefit, but great private wrong instead,
and for this they protest, and because
they see that for a "scheme of a few the
great public must bo taxed and robbed,
and private citizens wronged, are they
to bo charged with "self-interest." There
may be self-interest; but it is not with
those who oppose this scheme. There
may bo with those who are advocating it,
who own lots which will open on this
street?with those who have purchased
lots to be enhanced in value as they hope;
but surely not on tho part of those who
deprecate tins move.
"Liniment" has clearly been endeav
oring to soft-soap the people?he has
used one component part of the article
composing bis name, that is, soap, for
getting that ther\s are also imitating in
gredients in the same.
I think upon reflection, that "Lini
ment" in trying on tho argumentative
style, missed his calling. "Liniment" is
clearly a poet, that's it. The whole ar
gument bends downward to the last sen
tence, it clearly labors to get to that
poetic brcst, it drags along as tho, not
particularly interested, and as though
lingering and impatient to get out the
ficwery sentimentality which closes the
piece. "Liuiuient," my friend, if I could
sec no ror.ce in your argument, let mc
frankly confess thnt when I read your
closing sentence I was deeply moved?
Your poetic allusions to "Jamestown
weed and Jerusalem oak," so gracefully
introduced, so touchingly and pathetical
ly?so unexpectedly and yet so delight
fully made, affected me greatly. I am
not ashamed to confess it?I wept?and
many another anti-street man, yea wo
man also, shed tears of gratitude, moved
by tho appreciation of tho delicious po
etic sentiment oxprcsscd in those few
lines.
Just as I am about closing this, I see
in tho News of June 8, a piece from tho
"Fork" in favor of this street, He says:
"For every one of your 75 names, I can
get you one hundred begging for another
street." Now, my Fork friend, I have
no doubt you can get any number; but
i*ll bet you can't get them in this town;
and I should like to ask you what par
ticular attention your 'Torkcrs" think
should bo attached to your wishes on the
subject? Do you pay any Town Taxes ?
How much will you contributo to help
ing us pay for this street? If there are
hundreds of you who "don't want any
thing to do with Orangeburg in your
business relations with tho R. R.," what
do you want with an other street? You
iwiy, "wo don't wnui your >'dry goods,
liquor, grooorics Ac. Wo nie out of
money." Wlmt do you want then?
You talk bravely about paying ten times
the value of property taken from owners.
Why don't you come forward, nnd lets
see your money, which in but a few lines
above you say you are out of? You just
let the citizens of this town, who bear
the expenses, ran the town.
