?The Ni'W York World suggests
jlhai, as the third term Republican
organs seem disposed to rely upon
(?uuerul Grant's stubbornness as his
leading qnalilication for the Presiden

? Had there h.er. no Democratic
majority in the Senate, the Freed

performed his duly without fear 01

?The Prince of Wales, in a late

? Western papers are claiming
that Indiana built the Iii st railroad in

?The Washington correspondent

? We all have read about Miss
Amelia Linkhuw ?? ho killed J. K.
Hartman in Lnmbeiion. N. ('. some
time ago. and seeing the rcpoit going
the rounds ol the (tress that she had
been married Jo a Mr. Li tile in Char
leston, it was a pretty little story,
ii pel feet cameo of sentiment s, but it
turns out lhat it was nn illusion.
Miss Jdnkhnw mm s lhat she never
knew or beard of Mr. Little; so there
was little ?r no truth in tlie sensa
tion.
?Mr. Sewsrd, in a letter to a
young man, just published for the
lirst time, said : "J am gt?d to know
that you have got into lh<e country
It is Hiebest place for jonng men.
Allow me to give \< u a word of ad
vice. J??t as soon ai you can get
out of publue employment Into some
occupation by njijxb you can support
yourself, do it, und become an inde-,
pedent man. Salaries exhaust the
energies of all men, and very often
corrupt them."
?The Union Tlmct forcibly asks:
"What looks more like a rowdy or
v bully than a young man swagger
iug through the streets of a quiet
town with a pair of pibtols buckled
round his waist, and at every turn the
points of their scabbards showing be
low his coat tail? It certainly has
I not the appearance of a bravo and
peaeeid lo man. JJut what may be
said of a man who sits .us a juryman,
in this civilized country, with a brace
of pistols in his bei'.? And yet we
are told that such a spectacle has
been witnessed in our Court-room
within the p/ist year.''
Party Allegiance'.
There arc few sections at IhcSoutli
where true allegiance lo party is pro
perly understood or appreciated. This
applies with equal force lo South
Carolina and o r own county as any
where else. The rule that controls
the vote of many citizens is personal
favoritism. Tim tendency is to vote
for a man nominated if he is Jikcd
and lo vote against bim if he is dis
liked. This course of conduct ig
nores party influence altogether and
is often a fruitful source of evil, if not
of defeat. Under its operation the
best talent is often Jost, and officers
of inferior qualifications secured Im
positions they are hut aide to fill.
Popular men are not always the best,
either in point of fjlncss for an ojfice j
or fidelity to principle, and yield by
their term of service onlj a poor rer
turn for the confidence reposed in
them. On the other band the best
men arc not always favorites with the
masses because they do not pander
U) every wdiiin of a changing fortune.
They are faithful to principle, and,
therefore, opposed by ambitious as
pirants or sei ^constituted candidates,
and their talents in consequence are!
lost to the public service. 'J he Dem
ocratic party has been particularly!
unfortunate in this respect anil needs;
such n change as will gives j: the ser-j
vice til our best men. The most prac
tical plan to do this, we conceive, isj
to discuss calmly the merits of every J
one presented for consideration. Asj
a rule the people uncontrolled by
prejudices seldom err, and may be
relied lipon for a faithful discharge!
of duty and a strict adherence to prin
ciple. All the party, therefore, needs
is a correct expression of the senti
ment of the people, which can only be
had, under our present system, by
the selection of such delegates to the
County and Slate Conventions a? will
properly represent the sentiment of
the local clubs. When nominations(
arc then made, let individual prefer
ences Tall out of the question, and
let the lieket receive the cordial sup
port of every one. This will destroy
the very idea of Independeutiem and
give success to the party's ticket,
Loyalty to party allegiance on the
part of Democrats is worth the con-1
sideration of every true citizen.
Orangeburg Radicals Moving,
From a no'ice on the door of the
postoitlce we learn that Ihe faithful
in this precinct ore requested to at
tend a meeting called for the 23d in-!
sinnt for the purpose of ejecting six
teen delegates to the Radical County
Convention, whjeh will be held on
the following day, April "24. We
suppese like meetings will be called
in other sections of the county, and
that an earnest effort will be made by
the lenders to revive and reorganize
the old party. Whether this move
ment will result in success remains
for time to develop. Our colored
citizens are not unlike other rational
people, but have learned profitable
Jensons from their past political ex
perience, and, if they arc wise, will
consent to be no longer the blind
dupes of a fraction, or the tools of
cunning leaders or the supporters of
dishonest officials They know the dis
repute brought upon their race by a
fatal allegiance to Ibis very faction,
and a slavish obedience io these very
leaders. They feel to day the shame
consequent upon such sli.'glance,
and will he untrue to their manhood
to form a second alliance, the first of
which was so damaging to the char
acter of their race. Our colored peo
ple understand that they arc citizens
of the country; that Uicy jwsscss
rights equal with others which cannot
be taken away; that they live in
pence and the enjoyment of a reason
able share of material prosperity;
that their own well-being is inscpara
' bly connected with that of the -eotin
try ; and 'hat this condition is due
directly to the Democratic govern*
nvent now prevailing. As reasonable
lw.iugs? therefore, they should be
slow to perform any act which
would sap tho very foundations of
this prosperity. Wherever similar
movements have l^een made, as in
Rarnwe l, Colle'xm, Beaufort. Char
lesion and Darlington, the meetings
were slimly attended and a manifest
indifTcrenee displayed which was any
thing but encouraging to the^ old
Radical lenders. Let ue hope that
the same wisdom may direct the col
ored people of Orangeburg.
An Honest Republican.
If there is one member of the old
Radical party for whom we feel any
sympathy, that ono is Mr. John R.
Cocbran, ex-Senator of Anderson
County. In a recent letter to the An
derson Inldligi ncer he attempts to
show the motives that influenced him
in joining the party and the part he
took in the subsequent legislation of
the State. Whether those motives
were sufficient to warrant him In sac
rificing tho position of a respected
citizen he occupied, and whether bis
subsequent efforts to reform his par
ty w??re of sufficient importance to en
title the author to consideration now,
hayc been decided by the deliberate
verdict of his fellow citizens. The
record to which he appeals holds him
out in the claim of authorship to more
than half the reform measures adopt
ed by his party, and the records of the
investigating committee, of which he
was chairman in 1877, show him to
have been as active and as earnest in
ferreting out crime and its authors as
any Democrat on the committee.
The close investigation, instituted
and conducted by that committee in
to the conduct of every leading Radi
cal in the Stato, failed to connec1: the
name of Mr. Cochran with a single
dishonest transaction, and the esteem
jn which he is held ns nn individual
by the community in which he lives,
together with the hatred of bis old
associates, show him to be a man ol
principle and not a cunning politi
cian. Mr. Cochran's connection with
the Radical party has been a terrible
mistake. He might as well have en
tered a banditti with the hope of re
forming it as the Radical party with
the same purpose, -4s flb Impost Re
publican, howpver, he can be of some
service to our people and. if President
Hayes desires to appoint such a man to
the oflice of United Stafps Marshal for
South Carolina, ex Senator Cochran
will fill the position witb credit to the
government and satisfaction to the
people of this State. A better Re
publican than either Wallace of York,
or Johnson of Sumter, he would by
odds make a bplter marshal than
cither.
Radicals at Work.
Many persons from a very natural
courso of reasoning have concluded
that the Radical policy in this State
would be, not to put in tho field a full
Stale ticket, but to adopt and sup
port, as far as convenient, whatever
ticket the Democrats might choose to
nominate and make the fight in those
counties where they have a numerical
majority. Indications, however, point
io a generul rallying all over the
Stato ami earnest efforts are being
made by the leaders to revive the
party from tho sea to the mountains.
If possible a State Radical ticket will
be put in the field, not wilh the ex
pectation of electing it, but to solidi
fy the colored vote and thus increase
tho chances of carrying the lower tier
of counties. Tbe leading spirits in
this movement are Bowen, Mackey,
and Taft of Charleston, who have
taken time by the forelock, and are
working actively both in Washington
and the State. ' In the first place to
secure the removal of objectionable
oflice holders and the appointment of
others in their places who will be
faithful workers for the part}*, and
have taken the field in the other'to
encourage ' the desponding and
?strengthen the Weak wherever such
work -will be most fruitful. The
strange feature of this revival move
ment is the enthusiusm of the masses
is not in proportion to the zeal of the
lenders. Their meetings, even in
densely settled districts, are slimly
attended and those whom they suc
ceed in calling together ore evidently
indifferent or suspect that when the
offices arc divided out these cunning
leaders will secure them. The color
ed people seem not disposed to be
used as tools any longer. The leaders
of the tipper counties are working in
concert with Bowen and Mackey,
scarcely with the hope, however of
benefiting themselves. The utmost that
can be accomplished will be the elec
tion of Mackey to Congress and Row
en nnd Taft to some lucrative office.
This cunning scheme of the Charles
ton leaders can easily lie thwarted by
tbe Democrats if wisdom rules her
counsels.
Pi3TOi.9 and whiskey have been do
ing their work again in Edgefield.
In a row over a municipal election
in that town recently Dr. Bland, a
talented young man, was killed, and
two others badly wounded. When
will our law maker wake up to their
duty, and pass a law, making it a
crime to entry concealed weopons.
Keho answear when
.Mr. Tilden not a Candidate.
A.correspondent of liio Boston Her
ald announces upon the authority of
Mr.Tilden himsclf,lbat be is not a can
didate, nor will be, for the Presiden
cy during the pending politicul cam
paign. Since the declination of Gov.
Seymour to run, this announcement
leaves the held clear for the nomina
tion of Mr. Bayard. The National
Demccraoy can do nothing better for
itself or for the country than by tak
ing such a step. The nomination of
Mr. Bayard will at once throw hope
and life into the party and will com
mand the confidence and support of
every true citizen of every section,
who loves the Constitution, who ad*
mires honesty and virtue, patriotism
und statesmanship, principle and
right) and who hates centralization, a
vend ambition and political corrup
tion. Tbere is no man who 13 more
uble to command the respect and sup
port of the entiro American people
than Senator Bayard, of Delaware.
The failure to nominate him at the
Cincinnati Convention will be a terri
ble mistake and a fatal blunder.
We hear it whispered about that a
prominent white Radical of our county
aspires to congressional honors, and
proposes to contest Mackcy's claim
for the nomination when the pow
wow meets to decide who shall lead
the forlorn hope in this district, lie
would make about as good a member
of Congress as a pig, but then it is
none of our business. If ho suits
the party he suits us.
Ought to Know.
Our Republican cotemporary, the
Sea Island Navs, says: "Judge
Maekey is said to bo working in
Chester County to secure the nomi
nation of Hagood for governor. If
Republicans bad no*othcr dread than
in seeing Maekey re-elected Judge if
Hngood becomec Governor, that alone
would be enfllcient to cause them to
put up n straight-out Republican nom
inee like Corbiu who certainly would
oppose his beirg reseuted on the
bench." "Well, brother, we shan't
dispute this point with you. Maekey
is from your side of the houso, and
we suppose you know all about him.
