Ina material point of view Orange burg hns made rapid strides since tbo i\nr, nnd ban kept well npaec with lier sister towns in the State. Phoenix like, she has twice risen from her nshes, and stands forth grandly to day as an exemplar of energy and enterprise. Where but a few years ago the honest toiler drove his plough and plied his hoc, spacious streets arc lattling with the bustle ol trade, and the smoke of happy cottages grace fully curls towards the heavens. Within our recollection Amelia tlrcet has been extended to the depot, nnd Cedar streit has connected 13 rough ten with tbo railroad. The Fair Building stands as a modest but substantial monument to the industry of our farmers. Besides these improvements, an incalculable impetus has been given io trade and industry by the sue cess Jul establishment of Messrs. Straus, Street & Fowles, and the manufactur ing enterprises of Mo.-srs. Doyle, Bigg?, und Wiles, to say nothing of the public ?spirit of our merchants and citizens generally. And now conies the Sugar Refinery of Mr. Cornclson, which is destined to exercise a powerful influence in the development of our resources, and th e prosperity of our town and County. ? Such is only in part what hits been accomplished for Orangcburg in a material sense. But what else do we need ? Wo answer eotnbincd efforts, and the pro vision of all the facilities for the intellectual advancement of the ris ing generation. All the (forts in this line in our town have Icon individual,but the fottci ing care of the town to itscdnca tionnl institutions is always more conducive to stability and success. In this respect other towns are ahead of us. There is hardly one but what has its academy building; and in most cases the school is under the control of Trustoes appointed by the town, and is either wholly or par tially supported by municipal taxa tion. Special legislative enactment is generally made, a? it is not always advisable for tbo town to deliver its educational interests entirely over to the State. Charleston has its High school. Winnsboro' its Graded school. Green ville teems with its intellectual atmosphere emanating from its classic walls. "Why should not Orangeburg be likewise favored with municipal edu cational provisions? We only throw out the suggestion that our people may think, and look to their interest. Jt can be d hip, if wo ara in einlast. At some future lime wo will routine the subject. The True Issue. The letter of M r Pix, a le id ing Republican of Massachusetts to Mr. Hill of Georgia, together with tbo "national idea" evolved from Mr. Sherman's speech, and the numerous straws of Grant ism, every where visible, point out clearly and distinct ly tbo real issue between the two great national parties. Jt is consolidation and nationality on the part of the Republicans, and constitutional checks and limitations on the part of the Democrats. Tbo constitution is in the way o f ? be Republicans, and they want to destroy it, obliterate all State lilies, and establish one consolidated nation on this continent. Mr. Dix is honest enough to con fess that "the main duty of the lte> publicans, after tho war was over, \ i to destroy tho constitution of ,1?; United States,'' and establish a nat ion ? al constitution, in which the States, with all their courts and other ma - chinery, shall bo wiped out. This is doubtless the real feeling behind Republican policy, but so monstrous a change can only be ac complished by degrees, and they are aiming at it in this way. Such a government would bo tho natural cm pirc of Ca'sarism, and this is the ulti mate aim of Grant and bis followers. It is* v.hat has been predicted by our best statesmen lor years,and would he a certain result of the elimination <d' Democratic teaching, if such a thing were possible. Tuisalone keeps it in chock. The Democratic party is the great conservator of the coun try. - - ???am> ? - - ? A White Race in Africa. Maj. Rh.to, a bold Portuguese travellor has discovered in tha centre of Africa, a race whiter than th 5 Caucasian. In tho place of hair, '.heir heads are covered with tufts of short woo'. The suppi sition that the}' are Al binos is out ol reason, from the fact that the Albino is rather an abnor mal product of nature than a separ ate species. The fact is in perfect accord with the established theory of physiolo gists that climate 1 as little to do with color. 't he suggestion has been made that this str?ngt: nice is the offspring of some Goth or Vandal tribe forced hurt centuries ago, and compelled to keep ii gethcr for self preservation. Maj.

The oponing of this canal through the isthmus of Darien, thus connect ing two oceans, and shortening the distance of travel between the Conti nents, must be powerfully felt upon the trade of the world, and should he universally encouraged. j Tho route has been adopted as proposed by Lieut. Wyse; and Mr. L. DeLesseps, the famous engineer of the Sue/, (.'anal, will be at tho head of the company. Rooks are now open for subscription, which we hope will 30011 be filled, as the enterprise j must prove an incalculable blessing to mankind. . 1^ * mm - Tiic Hon. James S. G.
