NO DIFFERENCE.

A Copperhead paper has made the
wonderful discovery that there is no
difference between the Radicals and
,ho Conservatives that there is not
ono Conservative In the Republican
(Union) party. 1t closes an article
On Conservatives and Radicals in
Congress as follows
oIet us have no more talk about
radicals and conservatives The
difference don't amount to as much
ms that which exists ''twiXt twcdle'
dee and twedledum.'
Light has flashed at last upon The
mind of ono of that illusion. seeing
party, and the hope of the long
wished for split Of the Union party
vanishes. The party is not going to
split, and there is nothing at all sin
gular in the fact.
All the Coppcrheads ever had 10
build their hopes in this was 'ho
fact that there Vas difference oi
opinion on tho reconstruction ques'
tion-a difference rs to the mode OF
getting at it. This was a small boat
in whicl, to smbsrk such a large car
20 of bright hopss and anticipations,
but Copperheads have learned in
their sad political experience OF the
last four years to make small thing
90 n great ways, and they find that
neither Conservatives nor Radicals
purpose insuring the safe landing OF
said cargo.
Their view of the case OF the IN
ion party would seem to suggest that
they thought the members of a par
ty should think exactly alike-run
in the same groove. We are not so
sure but that the idea is good one.
AS it originated with the Copperhead
party, they should try the experiment.
Being hopelessly in the minority,
their time cannot be better occupied
than by working for the benefit of
future generations.
Let the case be as II may, in regard
to the difference between Radicals
and Conservatives, there is one point
on which they are unit. The rebels
will not be allowed to get possession
of tue Government. OF this Cop
perheads may rest assured.

This increase of the national debt
at this time may be surprising to
many, but it may be explained by
stating the fact that large numbers
of the troops have been paid oil,
many of whom had not been paid for
n long time; also that heavy sums
have been paid as pensions to dis:
ablcd soldiers.

There can be no possibility of such an oc-
currence. The honor of every Southerner
is now pledged to uphold the United
States Government, and it will be faithfully
performed"
The New York Herald, of Friday
last, thus summarizes Wendell Phillips late
speech: -"Mr. Wendell Phillips opened
the vials of his wrath last evening at the
Cooper Institute, and distributed the con-
tents with lavish hand over the President,
the Cabinet officers, Gen. Grant, the Con.
gress, the Republican party and Horace
Greely, not even excepting the fathers Of
the republic. He stigmatized the Consti-
tuition formed in 1889 as swindle, the
Constitutional Amendment proposed last
session as swindle, the Senators and Rep.
resentatives who sustained it as swindlers,
and Mr.. Greely, as having sustained every
bare.faced swindle for the last twenty years.
He drew a most striking Cabinet picture,
in which the Secretary of the Navy figures
as one, who, if he did one honest act du-
ring his term of Office, did it by accident
And as to General Grant, he characterized
him as holding the most humiliating posi-
tion of any man on the continent. The
successor he would have for him is Ben
Butler. He would have the President i'm
peached and deposed, aud, pending his tri-
al, his Office sequestered. His comments
on General Grant were met with general
Kisses, and his harangue was, ou the whole,
very coldlv receiyed"

HONE MANUFACTURES.


Previous to the late war, when labor and

Importance of home manufactures. The
people of the North, charge US with twenty
years preparation for the Great Rebellion.
If this be tue, it was singular, as we'll as
fatal oversight that caused US to disregard
these warnings, and blunder into bloody
war without any manufacturing resources at
hand to sustain it.
The close of the war found US bereft of
capital and scarce of labor, but possessing
a more accurate knowledge of the wants of
our section. A stimulus has been given to
manufacturing in some sections of this
State, that we should be glad to see extend.

The citizens of Barnwell and Marion Dis

hand, and gone to work to raise the means
and put into operation, a cotton factory in

We doubt if there is any portion of the
world better adapted to such enterprises
than the upper districts of this State. They
possess abundant water power, suf6cien-
cy of labor, rail road and water transporta.

every farm.
But the question will be asked, will such
manufactures, if established, prove profit.

the female operatives get 81 90 per day fol

the laws of the United States there is tax

If We undertake such enterprises, we ac,

purchases. By giving employment to the
poor, it furnishes them the means of future
wealth, distributes capital among them,

The Synod.

The South Carolina Synod in session at
Ebenezer, adjourned sine die on Saturday
afternoon The occasion is said to have
been one of much good feeling and highly
interesting as to the numbers and charac-
ter of the ministerial and lay delegates.
Several of the ministers in attendance
visited our town on the Sabbath, and filled
the pulpits here that day. The Rev. A.
F. DICKSON, so favorably known to the sol.
diery of South Carolina, for his devotion to
them amid the perils of Battery Wagner
and Sumter, preached at the Presbyterian
Church in the forenoon. Rev VIM E.
Boaas, of Columbia, gifted minister-
not yet out of his twenties-preached at the
same church in the afternoon Without
presuming to compliment one of his sacred
calling, We cannot forbear expressing our
admiration of this effort Mr. BoaGs bids
fair to become one of the most brilliant or.
naments of the Ministry in this State. In
the evening the Rev. J. N. CRAIG, of
Lancaster, preached in the Methodist
Church to a crowded congregation. His
sermon was plain, practical and direct, and
went to the hearts and understandings of his
hearers.

Cotton Transportation---Modifled Reg
ulations.

WASHINGTON, October 23.-The Treas
ury Department has just issued additional
regulations concerning the transportation of
cotton in bond, to the following effect:
"It having been represented that much
hardship and inconvenience is entailed upon
the smaller planters and farmers in the in
terror counties of the cotton producing dis
trcts in consequence of the enforcement of
recent regulations concerning the removal
of cotton in bond, and that additional and
much needed facilities would be afforded by
allowing bonds for securing payment of the
taxes upon the delivery of the cotton at the
point of destination to be taken by the COL
lector of the receiving district instead of
the collector of the district whence the cot
ton is shipped, as provided by regulations,
series 2, No. 5, issued from this Office un-
der date of July 31st, 1865, the following
additional regulations upon the subject have
been adopted for securing the payment of
