The South und the Wrgro.
There is no political question, out
side of the present dehnte in Con
gress on the Appropriation Bill,
which attracts more general interest
than the proposed scheme of Senator
Windham to colonize the negroes in
the N irthwe^t. j
It is wull known that (he fact of:
the Democratic party having enmc 1
into tho entire control of the South
ern States has caused consiHciiiblc
agitation among the Republicans iii
view of their loss of power, und they
have been for some time casting
around for a remedy for the evil.
Th ey see that tho negro has become
an clement of strength to the Demo
cratic party in giving it iucreased
representation iu Congress. To re
move that power which th?j' them
selves gave is now the objective point.
As to the manner of accomplishing j
this object the stalwarts differ. Some J
of the stauuehest Radical leaders
favor the immediate disfranchising of
the nrgrn as- the best means of de
creasing Democratic representation.
The latest scheme, however, is that
of removing the "wards of the na
tion" from the South to Pennsylvan
ia. Indiana, or some other close State
"Tn oider to give the said State, in
18S0, to the Republicans. This
scheme is much more earnestly
piessed at the North than we have
any idea of. It is the hobby of the.
Chandlers, who arc offering settlers
another "40 acres and a mule;"
and ex-Congressman Raiuey whose
hops? in South Carolina have gone
"where the wood bine twineth
and Prof. Greener, formerly af the
South Carolina University, and other
negro leaders, are working hard for
its success. Ji is? said] that there is
hardly a town in the North that has
not an agent of ihn scheme collecting
money for its prosecution.
Now, in view of these mam ?r.vs\ -
of our political opponents, it may l>
weil to enqu'ne what will bu the pro
gramme of the Democrat'!.
A correspondent of the "News ami
Courier" writing front Washington
believes it to be to the true interest of
the South to help on the schema. He
says that the negro is a curse instead
of a blessing to the South; that the
tide of immigration which builds up
the Norih flovs steadily to thu North
west ttudiously avoiding tho South
"because of this race in our miJst with
which European labor will not
compete, ile aUo cites that in the
upper tier of counties in this Stute,
where the negro is in the minority
the country is more prosperous and
the lands more valuable than in the
lower counties where they arc numer
ous. The Columbia "Register" has
also expressed views somewhat in the
same line.
Now it appeals to us if the colored
race would have off their sulkiness
j.nd co-operate with the whites, rcaliz
ing the truth that our. interests, as
component parts of a common South,
and as ayriuillun'sls against a manu*
facturiny North, ore identical, there
would be no use for this hegira. But,
if tho blacks intend forever to foster
enmity and to vote against the whites
aud in so doing against themselves,
and the S< uth, which is our common
home; and, if we are to have a repeti
tion of the demoralizing campaign
through which we have past, '.re ho
lievo wisdom would dictate a change
of allies and tho establishment, of an
Immigration Bureau to meet cveiy
emergency that may transpire. The
agriculturists of thu South prefer t'l J
colored man as a laborer", but il huis
to be tossed about by evory political
adventurer the consequences rest
upon his own shoulders.
The Election Casos.
The above cases are now under
trial in Charleston, Judge Pond, as
expected, having overruled tho ob
jections to the jury which were in the
opinion if any unprejudiced judge
sufficient grounds for laying aside the
juries us illegal. Judge Bryan dis
sented, which ol'course gives the right
of appeal in every case found guilty
to the Supreme Court. The trials
however go on. The bitterness and
prejudice ol Judge Bond and the
District Attorney uro manifest at
every stage of the trial. At the time
of our going to press two cases have
been decided?one guilty and the
other not gnilty.
With such juries as are drawn
under the law applying the iron-clad
oath the wonder is that any get clear,
tor it ir, next to im possible for any
honest white man in the South to take
it, who was of the age to bear arms
tin ring the war.
Wo presume that the Orangcburg
esses will Boon lie called, and we hope
tho necessary means will be iu hand
to defray expenses.
Congress.
The House is now engaged in gene
ral legislation of an important
character, and the Senate has com?
meuced Hie discussion on tho Appro
priation Bill. Gen. Login has spoken
on the Republican side and Senator
Beck on the Democratic side. The de
bate promises to be long and {exciting.
Senator Hampton is uow iu his
se?t at Washington.

Jessamine Vacm-.y,
WII.LOW TowNSIltP,
April 10i.ii, 1870.
Editor Orangeburg Times:
Dkak Sik ? I notice in a recent
issue of your paper, some very sensi
ble suggestions over the name ol
11 ippocra'cs, with which 1 fully con
cur. Tliey wcie madeiu refcren e to
tho road near y nir Village, that part
from the intersection ol the Ninety
Six, Cannon's and Hoi man's Bridge
roads to the Village.. My first cross
ing at that point was in the year
1839. 1 was. at that time, very
forcibly impressed with the nonsensi
cal circu tons route adopted by
the pioneers of the country, and not
being very well versed in revolution
ary history, was led to suppose that
our heroic ancestors were forced | to
ad"pt. the presen route during a dark
night in order to savo the little gai
ri.-.on of Orangeburg from the bru
tality bf?auperior British force. Be :
that, however, as it may, the writer !
of the article alluded to, hat? his head
level in regard to the proposed
change. The annual expense- would
not only be much less, but the road
would be far preferable to the present
route. The nuracrjus lakes now en
countered could all ^ conducted
into the river abo?'? the road-bed.
and instead of a dozen bridges, one
continuous embankment can be sub
stituted, which w'nl stand the lost, till
time trembles with the feoblcness of
aye, aud, besides, the high hill on the
Village side would be avoided. I
feel assured that the County Com
missioners will adopt the straight out
or ivtraight-across policy. What say
you, ("apt, 1 laydeu ?
