The fifth annual fair will open at Co lumbia on the 11th of November, and from tho success attending past exhibi tions, it will doubtless bo as fully atten ded, if it does not excite greater interest. Competition in Mechanical, Agricultural and Art contributions are invited. The rules tire well digested, and every cllbrt looking to the comfort of visitors, und care of contributions is under special committees. Motive power for testing machinery, and conveniences for fair competition with plows, <fec, are all to be provided. Tho State Fair is in the hands of able and patriotic men, and we wkd) it a complete success. -^js^ssssa THE LATE ELECTION. In one that elfecUs every tax-payer in tho county, and by them will the career of tho Senator he closely watched.? Heretofore there was nothing to expect from maljgnnnt partisans, and there was no disappointment when the former in cumbents realized to their party the pledges they made, of advancing the in terests of Ono class ut the expenso of the other. The Senatorial chair of Orange burg, as compared with ANTE HIXLUM days, has been a sad travesty; but the gnive, whence spiings charity, covers the Kcene, from which we turn to the new actor. A people's' trust confided in a man..is no mean tusk to vindicate, lie that pooplo ignorant,, so are they cap tious1 ; bo ihc.y enlightened, so are thev critical. There can be but one course to pursue, that is the path of justice. Let the rights of all, regardless- of race, color or btntfoiidtC'maintained, and the reward inu.^t be. in u con viel ion ofjilul) rendered, ij nt>p^Qmray<}. ^disappointed. Havo the white people ul' Orangcburg, no voico to raise in defence of their rights f^ritil n&Wj! theyJ?Y? ?ot b$-?&F)&- wejji practi| ? cally ignored, as much so as an alien, would bqi fn an ^nfij|eu4|y langS Evpry| Aim hi^.beenpo.lde^oil ipm with schemes of fraud, and every attempt to insinuate a claim to a hearing has been throttled by the phalanxcd majority that shut out all hope of a reform at the bal lot box. Iho Senator elect, if he met no support from white men in the recent election, certainly met no opposition from them. As passive spectators, tho men who represented ninctccn-twcntieths of tho materinl wealth of the county, stood by, or passed on heedless, allowing the craft to drift to a destiny which they were powerless to avert, bo that destiny for good or ill. For the first timo sinco the present rule, a Southern white man is elected to fill tho responsible office of Ornng?burg's Senator, and though tho officer elect is an avowed Republican, he is the dual representative of tho wmiu man and the Solthernor, two fenturcs which in the emergency of the present cannot be ignored without a sacrifice, which wc hope his county may not charge to bis discredit. Our sympathies are drawn out for tho futuro?our minds are exercised in view of the past?and io hira (though politically opposed to his sentiments) wc cheerfully offer our best ^wishes. The financial aspect of the county, engrossed as it is, with the affairs of the State, are drifting fast to whole sale bankruptcy. He goes to confront a set of men w hose power is inimical to our interest. To enroll as an .Illy will be their aim, to beard them as enemies to the gDod of the State, wo trust will bo Jib effort. The Senator has doubtless yet ringing in his ear, the unjust aspersion upon us, thai an intuitive hate on the part of the whites, keep? them from any recognition or affiliation with even hon est men of the ruling party: He cannot bo convinced of this, knowing as he does, that what our State requires is honesty and good government. Were any other party in power, and did they act as these at Columbia do now, the outraged people would cry 'down with them' as readily. Ptomises havo been violated everywhere; corruption has infected every depart ment, uutil tho public heart is sick, and the public mind disgusted. The dogmas of a man's creed nre trifles, if his acts arc laudatory ; it is only whon office is pros tituted to mercenary ends, and a help less people yoked to party power, that a just indignation denounces the men who lend themselves to the debasing concert of oppression. The white man of Or angcburg has rights which arc as patent as those of the colored man. "We do not desire, nor would we curtail, any political privilege the latter enjoys. On the con trary, wo assert that the day must come, when tho scheming demngogue of a mere profession, will be exchanged for the friend friend of principle. Senator Andrews, in assuming the office, pledges his vote and influence to no mere party ; if so, he is tho enemy of the white people of Ornngcburg. Common justice and equity demands that the scales shall be poised evenly. To depart from the beaten track of oppression, will surely bring about party opposition ; what then ? he maintains the right and on the thres hold of his career, he can count the cost of impugning the outrages so long prac ticed on his race and countrymen, or de fend an administration that is a disgrace to any party name. With a ripe field of labor before him, we abide the sequel of his choice, and trust we may write "well done." TU?8K JiONpfi, The Stale bond cases are still before the Supremo Court at Columbia. The "News & Courier" correspondent reports that the Chief .Justice has expressed him self "that the Court never contemplated the idea of ordering the tax levy, until nn investigation into tho outstanding debt litis been fully l.iade." Contrary reports say that "Morton, Bliss & Co." will have a favorable verdict, and some think that tho whole matter wi'.l go be fore.the next General Session. If so; it will be lluj virtual dropping of all in quiry as to tho guilt of the parties who j^ued fraudulent bonds, und the estab lishment of an auction for votes on the question. Morton, Bliss and South Carolina inus ? ;\ ? ;bog?^'rpapcr to the tune ic expenses of u slm ACROSS THE The sanitary condition of London, with its population of 3,000,000, is bet ter than that of any city of tho world. The births -exceed $ic deaths by 3J.? The last weekly return shows 2.242, births, and 1,381 deaths. The drainage of London has been ? for a long time; n subject of serious speculation, , The flew-; ors emptying irtto the Thames rendered' thnt river little else than a recking flow of filth. Not longer than 25 yea r3 ago the wooden quays ran along this river; now they arc removed, and a landing for steamers and a grand promonado of solid granito extends for ninny miles. An en gineer of great celebrity proposes build ing n drain of 2} miles to reccivo tho oflhl and wuste of London, which will be gathered for tho purposes of manuring planting lands. ? \ "lX COMMUNICATED. ? ?.?VHpf? ! To this Tim us :?As, . Town Marshal on Friday, evening, I had occasion to ar rest a colored man for riotous conduct. I used every ende?vor to make tho man keop quiet, beforo I resorted to force, and failing to got assistance frohi by standers to carry the men to jail, I ap pealed to the Mayor, who for his pains in furnishing tho assistance of a gentle man, received a wholesale volley of curs ing from the prisoner. . Tho man was put iii jail; und 1 was arrested aud tried beforo a Trial Justice for an assault, and my sentence wiis a fine of $25.00, or go to jail for twenty-live days. 1 would simply ask through your paper if the office of Marshal is not to be supported by tho council, and what hope is there for the peace of the community, if, >n the discharge jf his duty, he is to be drugged up and punished when he is carying out the laws of the town. JAMES CANNON, Marshal. "Who is Responsible?" "The publick were advised a few weeks ago of tho hearing given by'the Supreme Court of South Carolina to tho inaiida. mus case of Morton, Bliss & co., which rnvolves the validity of about ?7,000,000 worth af State bonds. The publick have not been advised of the decision ye'.. The financial reports advise us' that tha highest price obtained for 'South Caroli na' is 32\; while the January and July lmnds oriug barely 15. "This ruinous beggar)', of price is not tho fault of tho taxpayers, clearly. They pay well. Let us see how well. In 1860 the taxable property hf that State was worth 8-1*7,310,128, and the taxes levied were 8574,305. In 1870 tho taxable properly is reduced to 8183,013,337, and the taxes Levied were 82,415,047. That is whilo tho taxable property decreased in value more than two and a half times, the taxes increased to more than four times as much, and tho taxpayer who, in 1800, paid 81 70 on tho 81,000, in 1870 paid 813 13 on that amount. "Now, since 1870 tho scnlo of taxation lms gone up steadily, aud tho taxes have been paid. The responsibility for a de preciated credit does not rest ou the- tax payers.*' remarks hy the news and courier; Tho responsibility rests upon the knaves, calling themselves Rcpublicanss who have governed this State for five years. There has been criminal extrav agance, wherever there is not downright stealing. Tho beggars on horse-back have dono their best to ride the Stato to life devil. A public debt increased from six millions to sixteen, and*, taxation in creased from an average of four hundred thousand dollars to over two millions. That is the "Republican" record in South Carolina." And so it will ever be, as long as such a rule is winked at by Courts whose time woiild be well employed in trnusforing froiii the offices of trust, those wh'> ought to be in tho Penitentiary. Ei>.
