relations to the opposing parties arc changed
—il I now act with those whom I then ac*
ted, the change i* not in me. I at least have
stood still. iude[iendcnt, honest gifted
noble man . Has a thing risen up upon jour
own soil called Perry, who CAlnbitj to your
grandchildren in this cartoon their matchless
sire as the giddy mountebank leaping un
bidden into the company of bis betters, and
as soon as made welcome, leaping back again
to his vagrant elan ? And lias thia vile cari
cature been on exhibition eight long mouths,
first at the home of Maeou, thy friend and
adoiirier, and then at thin« own home, and
not one -hnek of horror, on* burst of indig
nation, one caitii reproof, one whisper of dis
favor been heard from either of them ? In
;di this time has there risen but one man,
and he a Northman, (orry by name. (1
would write it iu golden letters if I could,)
who has in proper spirit and ia proper words
condemned the daub and shamed its author?
Oh ! Land of jjaureus, Rutledge, Sumter,
Moultrie snd Marion, endeared to me by
a thousand tender associations, what bast,
thou done to merit thy present deep, dark,
toarfui humiliation ? Let her alone, Mr.
1‘orry, for your own sake, let her alone in
her agony ! Allow her at least, and at last,
the poor privilege of bewailing her fate un
disturbed hy jour hnil among the halls, and
your howl among the tombs of her mighty
dead. When she sought to red ret* her griev
ances without quitting the Union, you en
couraged your Northern allies to make war
upou her, uprooted and upturned all her in
stitutions, laid waste her fields, burnt down
her houses, made negroes her aristocracy,
committed the popular branches of the go
vernment to them, and the executive branch
to j’oti, as a reward for your loyalty. Now,
be content with your honors; enjoy sweet
converse with your compeer and successor;
make yourselves merry over your for
mer differences, and happj according to your
means; spread oft and wide your banquet
tables; load ther.i richly, and gather to them
jr.ur co-ordiuates of the Senate and Lower
Home, and enjoy with them “the feast of
r< :i; i and flow of soul.” Hut let the State’s
old sins, as you called them, he forgotten,
and let her traitor dead as you regarded
them rest in peace. In conclusion, docs
the leader think that I have used a severity
toward* Mr. Ferry unbecoming mj - age and
calling? One more quotation from his pen |

For February is, if anything, better and
handsomer than thoadmirable January issue,
which took its readers hy surprise* with its
charming new dress and improved air. The
1 continued series of Articles on “The Marvels

the fact, that ihe Radicals do not expect to . ,

ended my duties iu the matter. If the ju- j
ry had found against any particular partj', 1 1 hi
should have forthwith issued a warrant for
his arrest. Tha circumstances all pointed di
rectly, and as it seemed to me, iucontroverti-
bly, to a man named Chavera, with w hom
Mr. Dargan had tho first difficulty. These
circuniotauecs aro too numerous to relate
here, but suffice it to say that several of the
showmen who testified, said the voice was , . — -—

itofm, with such grace and deliberation, as
to forbid the idea that the roguea expect the
people to endure it. All are for money: the
Yankee adventurer, as well as the Southern
scoundrel. And they arc making it, too.
How long do wc intend to endure these
things? How long do we iutend to allow
a set of scoundrels to steal from us and not re
sist the stealing? How long are Yankee
vagabonds to come to us and be our law
makers ? How long ore Yankee prostitutes

It is time wc were preparing to end these
wrongs by some means. Dixie is not dead.
The “Lost t-ausc” is not forever lost. We
want boldness of utteiance, fixedness of pur

can drive from us the dirty leeches who are
sucking from us our very life blood, and rid
ourselves of a low, dirty race who desire te
become a portion of our people.

ARREST OF THE MURDERER.
On Friday morning Mr. Wm. E. McMi-
chacl, deputy Sheriff of Orangeburg Coun
ty, was informed that Chavers.the man who
killrd Mr. Dargan at Graham’s Cross Roads,
on the Northeastern Railroad, during a dis-
turbaupc while Reynold’s Menagerie was
exhibiting at that place on Tuesday night,
the 18th instant, was in town. Mr McMi-
cbael was at ths Courthouse when ho re
cursed me this evening,” and the colored
man who came to the door to call Mr. Ham
mond testified that he saw Chavers standing
near the door, and that he was the only man
ha saw.
The whole affair was certainly most mel
ancholy and nnfortnnate; but I will rtata
here, that so far as J know no man connect
ed with the manugcrie is at all to blame ex
cept Ohavcrs. He acted most dartardly nnd
cowardly, if he was in fact the man who fired
the fatal abut, and that bo was the man, I
myself have not the. least doubt. Mr. Ham
mond acted throughout the affair as a per
fect gentleman. The foreman of the jury
examined the body, and Mr. D-irgan had no
sort of weapon about his person.

e v , sat upon the throne of England
— upon any throne—such a vile, hypocriti
cal, detestable, disgusting, purjured, God-
defying lecher and murderer as Henry VIII.
What, could have suggested to Mr. Perry a
c 'inparison between Mr. Calhoun's mastery
of mind and this man's mastery of might ?
He “thought after Mr. Calhoun’s death the
people of South Carolina could think more
independently.” Of course he regarded Mr.
Calhoun's death as a deliverance, not a ca
lamity, to the people of his State, and therc-
fon: lie rejoiced at it !
1 row my sou! I believe lie did rejoioc at
it. ;.nd tbit his noising about Mr. Calhoun’s
death-bed was only to assure himself, as he
is n.>w trying to assure the world, that Mr.
Calli 'un has gone to perdition ! Mr. Cal
houn’s ^aon-. r in his State was just that of
Mr. Clay iu Kentucky, and just what Mr
Webster’s would have been in Massachu
setts if hs had bad a consUtucucy wh > con
sidered a congiessmau’* oath binding, and
the consutution anything better than “a co-
vr.nant v i/h death and a league, with hell.”—
He, too, had ills Berry’s about bis death-
couch, who. not daring to dtny tho saintly
words which he uttered in his last moments,
proclaimed, through the press, to the world
that ho was drunk when he uttered them.—
Mr. Berry’s exhibition of him in Columbia,
does not acquit him of the charge.

THE LAND COMMISSION.
“Yesterday the bill reported by the Finance
Committee, providing that the amount of
dollars, iu hoods of the State, at their par
value, be appropriated for use of the lands,
pursuant to the provisions of “ An act to pro
vide for thc_ appointment of land commis
sioners, and to define his powers and duties,”
ratified on the 9th of September, 1868, was
taken up for consideration. Swails moved to
fill it with the words “five hundred thousand.”
A mini moved to fiill it with the words “five
milioii.” The motion created considerable
laughter, whereupon Arnim said: If I were
a Democrat Iwouldvote for the appropriation
of tho fivo hundred thousand dollars, bcan.se
I beliere it will be the death of the Repub

in bonds are about four hundred thousand
dollars iu cash. After all exponst} are paid

Roads, on the 18th instant, I feel it to be my
’ duty, as one present, and as tbc magistrate
who held tho inquest over the body, to make
a brief statement of the real facts of the case:
I happened to be iu Mr Holliman’s store
on that evening, on busines*. Not many
minutes after entering the store, a gentleman
present called my attention to the fact that
Mr. Dargan was getting into a dMficulty on
the outside. I immediately Flapped out, and
found him cursing and threatening to shoot
some one, it being then about ten o’clock at
night. 1 then pursuaded him back into the
store, and then he went with me very quiet
ly. I now gave my attention to some other
business, and not many minutes elapsed
when I found Mr. Dargan and a gentleman
named Hammond, belonging to the menage
rie, both being inside the store, were iu a
dispute, and the former threatening to shout
the latter. I begged them to desist and be
quiet, but they nevertheless, approached the
door, as though going out to fight, when
Mr. Dargan attempted to push Mr. Hammond
out, telling him at the same time to go and
get his pistol. Mr. Hammond now said he
woo'd not be shoved out. and that if he went
he would go as a gentleman, and came back
into the store. At this moment a colored
man. attached to the managerio company,
on tho outside, called Mr. Hammond and re
quested him to go to the camp, Mr. Ham
mond opened the do .r, and told him to go j
along and he would come when he got ready. {J l.o'lge. will lie held on Monday ffetn-'y. 14
