have recently failed. We have held from

have not lost dollar. Fearing, however,
the misfortune of waking up some morn and
finding ourselves penniless, we have wisely
concluded to attend the editorial convention,

Temperance celebration.

Cheraw Division, No. 81. Of the soas OF Tenn
perance, celebrated the 9th Anniversary Of the
Division on Friday evening last, by grand pro-
cessioh, and an Anniversary Grafton. The ee.e-
monies took place at the cheraw Lyceum Lecture
Room. At about o'clock the procession pi Sons,
in costume, were seated In the Lecture Room,
which was crowded 10 a jam-the better half Of
creation was fully represented. The Grafton was
delivered by the Rev. j. r. PICKETT, oftbe Meth
odist Episcopal Church.
The remark is universal, that the subject Of
Temperance has been worn threadbare--that lit
Tie new could be expected from the most gifted
on such occasions On this occasion, however,
the remark did not apply. The speaker not only
said many uew, but also many good things ap,
propriate and illustrative Of the subject of his
discourse. Mr. PICKETT is a ready and fluent
speaker-possesses mind we'll stored with the
richest gems CT literature, from which he drew
with liberal hand. His anecdotes were full o
point and wit and were well told, particularly
that one of the Dutch preacher. He gave entire
satisfaction 10 his brother Sons, and to his large
and intelligent audience. which is enough for Vi
to say in behalf Of the address. -"

How AMERICA WAS PRoPLED.-Rov. Dr. Hawks.
a learned and eloquent scholar, has recently been
delivering series Of lectures, intended to show
that this continent was peopisd by successive mi
grations from the old world, at different eras and
by different races Fret from the shores of the
Mediterranean, which was the earliest seat Of
commercial enterprise and the people from which
have left their record upon the vast ruins Of
Yucatan next from China and Japan to Mexico
from Central and South America, and next from
Northern Asia, from which tie American tribes Of
Indians came. These theories are sustained by
remarkable anslogies between the languages pre-
vailing in different parts of the Eastern continent
with those to be foudd on this continent,

Southern ORGANIZATION

$50 long 1-thus We read in the editorial col
amns Of The NatcheA Mise, Free Trader Of the
9sth ult, paper which is published at Gen.
Quisman's home and is supposed to represent his
political views-"so long as there are political
principles to be constructed and enforced in the
Union, We are in favor of the ascendency Of un.
adulteratsd Democracy. And SO long as the South
is content to defend her rights and honor in the
Union. we know Of no party IN the Union IN
whose capacity or disposition to protect those
rights we would give the snap Of our finger ex-
cept ,be Democratic party. But should the South
determine that national parties are powerless in
the protection Of their rights in the Union, then
we say organize Southern party upon the etern-
al principles of pure State Rights, with such 9th.
tr principles as the exigencies Of the times may
call for"
The above, coming from the source it does, is
significant enough. Conceding the Free Trader
to be q genuine Southern journal, which sees
more than "through a glass darkly" the real
condition and tendency Of national politics, as re-
spects the safety and destiny Of the South, we feel
prone to lay aside the preliminary hypothesis
aud contingencies, asmerely intended to some
what mitigate the emphasis Of the concluding
proposition and render its enunciaton less start.
ling. Doing this. the gist. the Pth, the grauameH
of the Free Traders article stands sharply out
lined before us in The advice: "Organize q
Southern party upon the eternal principles Of pure
States Rights, and upon such other principles as
the exigencies of the times may call for"
We say that We lay aside the hypothesis and
contingencies which are mentioned; and we'll we
may do go. They refer no longer to hypothetical
conditions they relate no longer to contingent
possibilities. Hypotheses has become demonstra.
ton; contingency is reality. Henceforth-so it
is written in tI6 book of fate-no power, under
Heaven, can save the South but the South. She
must resolve to conquer her own destiny or re.
lnquish it forever. No national party can save
her. because the very essence of political nation
ality consists in the steadfast cohesion with those
who have the power and the will TO crush her.
Such nationality would afford about as much
protection as the anaconda gives to the victim he
swallows; i. might absorb. but it would not de-
fend.
If the South rely hereafter upon the political
status quo only, her enemies need give themselves
no further trouble; she will die under her own
process of self assassination, enough, to satis
fy any ordinary vengeance. Such is the abnor.
