Strikes among all class of lalx>rcrs, ere be
coming so frequent that the announcement
of them causes no surprise. These efforts
of Labor to control amt badger capital is with
us, an alarming sjrrapton of the unhealthy
state of Libor in our midst. Capiud and La
bor should be on good terms, otherwise, we
cannot be prosperous. Tho Lonshoromeu
the I’ainters, tho Carpenters have all, in
there way, and under competent teachers
we expect, refused to work except upon
terms to be fixed by themselves. Judging
from the following, which wo copy from the
"Southerner," field hands are about to“*<r£fce”
also. 13ut we would remind them, that corn
enough to feed the colored people alone 1ns
not been made in this County. They had
better therefore, consider carefully whatthey
do, and not make demands which cannot
and will not be complied with, and which
will only increase crime and suffering.
Mr. Editor:—Please insert the following

MANY LABORING MEN.

A public meeting of tho laboring men and
mechanics of 1'arlington County, will be

the unjust exactions of employers, and to
see if something can be done by which labor
may receive from capital a fair share of pro

this metal is represented as being more

these oxen weigh from one thousand to four

from Jive to seven feet between the horns— | antidotes were nppl : cd tc r

f On the return of Council Alderman Har
row moved that no more testimony in the
case be taken, as all witnesses testified about
alike and it was only consuming time.
Alderman T. J. Alackey: I protest against
this motion, and if certain menbers of Coun
cil will act recklessly I will warn them that
measures equally reckless will be resorted to
speedily by me. He stated fmthcr that
Geor-e AY. Clark had bribed niugbers of | few thoughtless young men, at Maycsvilie,
Under any circumstances his word goes for
very little, but where his interest or animosi-
spoak the sentiments of nine-tenth of the
people who know this person well, when I
say that his enmity is of that low and brutal
quality which is not restrained either by eon
science or by any obligations of decency-”
These will suffice for the present.
An Inccmlinry Document.
AVe publish below the "Proclamation" so
called, of R. K. Scott, by misfortune,
Governor of South Carolina.
In our opiuiou it invites the negro to house
burning, rapine and murder; couple it witb
the readiness with which convicted felons, of
this race, are pardoned, and we can’t escape
the conviction, that the ric/rGovernor wants
to make occasion for the use of his constabu
lary forces.
This wonderful “Proclamation” is occa
sioned by the wild and and silly freak of a
Council to vote against him
Mr. Clark, who was present, jumped on
on hi* feet and pronounced the assertion “a
lie,”
Alderman T. J. Mackey: That man is well
known to be a thief. I will, therefore, not
reply to him; but I can prove that Aldermen
Harrow has been bribed.
Alderman Harrow: I pronounce this an in
famous lie, before God. (Several Aldermen
here protested against the language used.)
Alderman T. J. Mackey: “Let all be cool.
I will not defend myself hero as 1 would else
where. I do not think my courage needs
proving, but I will defend myself against the
charge, and, if time is allowed me, I will
prove that the two Aldermen have accepted
bribes, while three; who were approached,
refused them. Thir unfortunate individual
on my right (referring to Alderman Barrow)
has received money.”
Alderman Harrow: “I will make you prove
it.”
Alderman T. J. Mackey: ‘T will do so;
and I tclifouall, when you arouse the people,
your Winchester rifles will bo of no avail.
Expel mo, and I will be returned by the
people.”
Alderman Harrow arose and said: “I want
justice done mo. I will not be stigmatized
as the tool of any clique. I want to vindicate
myself against the infamous charge made
against me. I have never been bought.
Yesterday I was approached by this very
which really meant nothing. Our houses
may be burned, our property stolen, our
friends murdered—what of that ? But let a
negro be frightened and straight-way the
Governor speaks, under cover of the Great
Seal ofthe State, which once was only im
pressed uponhoncst and dignified productions
of gentlemen, for our governors were then
selected from this class.
Oh: for a Brutus !
By his Excellency RuLcrt K. Scott, Govern

AVhercas, information has been received
at this Department, that portions ofthe Coun

bauds of lawless and unprincipled men, who,
under j-rctext of suppressing illicit traffic in
cotton, have wilfully and maliciously set fire
to and consumed the store houses of citizens,
and openly avow their determination of per
petrating similar outrages upon the property
of others, unless the threatening notices serv.

Mr. Editor.—I send you an extract from

ny of your readers.
To show tho most practicable plan for
commencing the building of manufactories
at the South, I give you the following esti

“Number of square feet of flooring. 10,200
amount of numher 20 yarns manufactured

8-13,000; building including housas for
operatives, (estimated by an experienced
contractor,) 87,000 ; total, $50,000. Such a
mill will give employment to 87 operatives,
and will consume 887 bales of cotton, weigh,
ing 450 pounds each. Estimated not pro

made of the cost of water power, as that

that he is a party to this controversy. The

'ling citizens of tho GJClJTy, of those w
’have an interest iu its rcpribition and pros
perity, that they all discountenance and dis
courage all measures and proceedings tending
*o violence and insubordination, audespecially
those which would substitute for the peacca-
blo process of the law the torch of the incen
diary.
Incendiarism, at all times and places, is a
crime ofihe gravest magnitude, but its terri
ble teachings make it double dangerous in a
community like ours. If those who pretend
to possess tho property, tho intelligence and
the morality'of the community resort to under
tho pretence of enforcing law, or punishing
dishonesty, they must not be surprised if
others 1 not «o favored, smarting under a sor.se
of injustice and wrong, by which, perhaps,
they have bcecn defrauded ofthe hard-earned
proceeds of tkeir labor, and their familes de
prived of food, cloathing and shelter, (and
such cases are not unfroquent,) should resort
to the same summary process for redress.
The protection of law being withdrawn from
property, and a self constituted and irrespon
sible body of individuals assuming to tbem-
telvcs the power of pronouncing upon the
guilt or innocence of individuals, alleged to
be dishonest, but too frequently because they
arc personally or politically obnoxious to
their accusers; the flood gates of anarchy and
crime aro at once opened; antagonistic asso
ciations will be organized, and the communi
ty becomes the prey of hostile factions, pri
marily cueited by revenge, but which will
: eventually be characterized by plunder and
license, and the exhibition of the worst pas
sions of human nature. Tlie lurid glare of
the midnight torch will light up many a
p .'aceful neighborhood to scenes of desola
tion and plunder, and to attrocitics, at the
mere allusion to which humanity shudders,
and.which every good citizen, every lover of
his kind, all who value and honor the repu
tation and prosperity of the State, should ar
dently deprecate and devote their most stren
uous exertions to prevent and punish.
It is my duty and determination to use all
the measures at my disposal to put a stop to
proceedings that may lead to such deplora
ble results ; and with this purpose I have
i summoned to the aid ofthe peace officers of
the said County the. armed police of the

however much 1 may regret the necessity, I
shall place the County of Sumter under
martial law, and invoke the intiro power of
i the State in ro-eslablisliing the supremacy of
the laws.

my hand, and caused the great seal of

“Happy ho.” as she had done during all of her
