The truth is, tho inscriptions politicians

than even the theatrical heroes of Secession

traders deem their present nllanco with tho
Nullfiors ard Disunonists strong enough to
control not only tho commerce but the poll

of South Carolina TO make an estimate Of
the expense OF setting up housekeeping
for themselves. On the same basis As

This would be the cost Of the first step,

Never Talks Turkey.

TIE one.sided compromises (?) pro,
posed by the South by way Of conciialion,
remind us of the Kentueky hunter and the
Indian who undertook to make an
equitable division" of turkey and
goose. Says the Kentucky hunter,
"You may take the goose, and I'll take
the turkey, or I'll take the turkey, and
you may take the goose anything to sat
isfy." THAT all sounds fair enough, "
replies the Indian, "but you never talk
turkey to me-" The truth is, the South
never talks turkey TO the North, and we
get the goose every time.

Hon. B. /. Wade made great speech
in the Senate, las. Monday, on the Scces-
sion question. lie said, if South Carolina
could secede at will, we had never had a
Government. Her position was revolu'
tionary. If she could MAINTAIN it, very
well; If not, she must go to the wall. He
attributed the existing national troubles
to Interpretations OF the principles and

Wade always speaks with plainncss, truth

Mr.. DEMocRAT The knowing ones
are. as a general thing, the greatest actual
"Know. nothings" in the Universe. 1t is
especially so here, at this time. Every
idier about the Capital, (aud "their name

nest" secret, too important to be divulged
and too big to be held altogether in; and
so, from this thirst for "knowledge under
difficulties" much is conceived and but
liule drought forth"
The theme here is,how shall the South
be delivered Of this devil Of Secession, OF
which she is in such painful labor? |
much fear the old and fatal disease of Sc
cession, more infectious with Southern
politicians than the "cattle consumption"
SO prevalent recently in New England,
may frighten some Of our Republicans
into trial of their bnckbones so severe,
that they may break down under the
burden.

indications are that the Executive ha'
taken :he precaulion to secure the ab

period in which is performed the Souti

Its very evident, that the Slave ques
ton is the one ohly stumbling block owe
which The Union Is in the slightest DANCE

in order that the nation may have its
just, and free developments, then, in
deed, all the winds of controversy are
let upon us from all points of the polit-
ical compass, we see objects and men
only through political hazes, mists, and
doubtful and lurid lights. The earth
seems to be heaving under our feet, and
the pillars of the noble fabric that pro-
tects us to be trembling before our
eyes. But the appointed end of all
this agitation comes at last, and al
ways seasonably; the tumults of the
people subside; the country becomes
calm once more and then we find
that only our senses hive been dis
turbed, and that they have betrayed
US. The earth is firm as always before,
and the wonderful structure, for whose
safety we have feared SO anxiously,
now more firmlyfxed than ever, still
stands unmoved, enduring and immov-
able.

We again, earnestly admonish every,
one, of every political faith, who arc
entitled to vote, to see to it that their
names are properly registered before the
day of election. The law is explicit;
no person can vote unless his name be
upon the Registry Book in full. We
especially desire that the name of eve-
ry Republican should be on the list.
Our opponents will be very likely to
see to their side of the question, and if
we are not up and doing we shall need
some more votes on the day of election.
Let every Republican remember that
a perfect registry is the best poll list
that can be made; and when complet-
ed, we shall know our full strength and
can act accordingly. Above, all, let
every Republican remember that every
victory and every defeat this Spring
will have its influence upon the great
Presidential struggle before us. The
Board of Registration will meet at the
Township Clerks Office in each town on
Saturday preceding the election, at
which time every one whose name is
not already upon the book, or who,
may have been improperly registered,
should attend personally and see to the
registration of their names SO as to
conform to the law.

The Homestead Bill.

Another Republican triumph was
achieved in the House of Representa-
tives on Monday last. The Homestead
Bill, giving to every family who has
arrived to the age of 81 years, 16O
acres OF government land, passed the
House by the decisive vote of ia to 62 |!
1t will now come before the Senate,
but what its reception may be there, of
course is hard to determine, all we can
hope is, that that body may throw
aside forever the Pro-Slavery cry of,
"Niggers for the Niggerless, " and adopt
the Republican rule of, LAND for the
Londless."
