Meanness.

Meanness. .-.a
tits not an uncommon thing to see party
journals charging upon their opponents
that the popularity of p,litica! opinion
entertained by their foes is sufficient
cause for the personal misconduct attribut
ed to individuals throughout the country.
If Democrat does some dcYilment, it is
hurried into the columns of Republican
paper MS a proof of the wickednsss of
Democracy in general, and the. party Of
course, is asked to shoulder its lasce men,
Der and defend him to the best advantage.
If n Republican steals money or robs a
hen .roost, it is forthwith trumpeted to the
world that Republican sentiments are fatal
to the safety Of property or the quiet OF
the chickens!
This is not quite the way to discuss
public measures if the disputants expect
to convince each other Of error, OF even to
retain each others good will. The pro-
fession Of peculiar opinions in politics
does not necessarily imply goodness OF
corruption. Men of bad character often
ally themselves to party for the oppor-
tunity it may give them to practice rogue.
~, in the same way that villains some
times Join church the better to secure a
cover for knavery; but no mans expert.
ence will enable him to say that he has
seen more bad citizens in one party, OR in
one church, than in another, and it is re-
ducing political discussion and christian
controversy to the merest blackgnaraism
to assume any such thing. 1t is true thai
a party may subject Itself to closer crit
icism by making pretensions to superior
honesty and virtue, and any dereliction o
duty is exposed with more readiness b,
an opponent than if the pretensions were
not SO patent; but the political opinion
Of the delinquent do not make him a bat
man. Success in politics often gives mel
opportunities for displaying the latent ro'
query which, circumstances only, were re
quired to deve.ore.
We have the highest regard for tn
principles of the party with which we act
but we disclaim any intention to under.
take the task of white washing tn: ella
racters or defending the psrsonal conduct
of every one who. may attach himself t
its organization.
We have seen great knaves in our Owl
ranks, and we have heard Of many among
our opponents, but if we want to dea
With man, or place him in relations Q
confidence with ourselves, We do not as
him, how he votes.

Holidays.
Pretty much everything is going on
about town. On Tuesday night of this
week Cassidy's colored Troupe, the only
genuine one in the U. States or the world,
played at the Cambrian to one the Of most
cheerful audiences ever assembled. All the
actors deserve commentator, but we Sc
lect Madame Route as singer and danseuse
and Old Dan as comiquc for special praise.
They play to- night and if any one in town
has the blues we advise yisi. to the Cam
brian. lie or she who cant 80 home full
of laugh can draw on US for fifty cents.
On Thursday nigh. the Hatchinsons
sing. Notice in Home Items.
On Friday night JOHN HoLsroS the Paris
ian-German, late Of Paris, and one of the
most accomplished musicians on the con-
tinent, will give Concert at the Cam
brian to persons who can appreciate music
in its finest execution. Those who have
no ear for harmony will lose time and
money by attending. Mons. Holston
plays the piano exquisitely, tune with
each hand, but the charm Of his exhibition
consists in the IIarmoniun, Flute, an in.
strument awarded the first Music Prize al
the late Paris Exposition and the only one
ever in America. Music lovers will give
the young French Professor good house
HERR BRosIus will open his Christmas
party at the Cambrian on the evening o.
the 18th, and we'll bet on its success.
Brad. II. Olmstcd, one Of the select ir
our book Of friendship, has permitted hi
young neighbors to announce a ball at hi
residence, near Monona, on the cvenin:
of the 3lst. All sensible people are a

During Sherman's Raid, and since, we
colorcd people of the South were promised
many f;.vors by the Radical party of the North

Portable situation, which would have been very
acceptable rs l am scvonty-cnc years Old
But, alas, have waited three consecutive
years, no f,vors yet, and my condition made
mere miserable than it ever was. even when =
slave. So dcspaircd, and have joined the
Dcmocratic party, and expect to support that
party, as long as breath remains III my body.
For since ! have united with them in trying to
throw off the yoke Of tyrany and dcspotisrn, I
have received many iavors, especially from NY
old friends of Oraugcbnrg District. l was

A Few Words to Farmers! !

Negroes, the laborcrs of this District, have
proved to you in the recent election, that You
arc to expect from them for the future, the
most deadly aninlosity, and the hostility of the
savage. You have icl them, clothed them,
housed them, and bcfricndcd them in every
way. They give yon in return less than half
work, and steal from yon about half they make
They also reject your reasonable offers of quail
fed suffrage, (the most they havo ever received
in the Northern States, mt the hands Of their
pretended Northern ircnds.) They have
prored to you the futility Of any efforts on your
part to appcasc their agraran and savage pro-
pcnsitcs, and no man of common sense, what
ever may have bccn his convictions before can
now doubt what will be their future course
When tl,cir leaders boldly proclaim in public
that, having the majority, they have right to
rule you with = dcspotic hand, can you expect
the ignorant rabblc to appreciate arguments
founded OIL justice and republican liberty !?
You might as soon expect to let your fence
down, and save your cr"p by preaching chris
tianity to u milo.
DO you intend then to lie upon yonr backs
and continue to warm the viper in your bosom,
only that it may sting you with its borrowed
vitality? Are there not countless thousands
of our own race out Of employment, who would
be glad to till your land for you and be your
friend, if you would only make them tho offer !?
We all know there arc many such, and we can
get them within the next six month, and make
the year 1869 year of jubilee to Farmers
Now these are not the vagarics of IA mind
diseased" but the sober thought of reason.
The thing ton br ,lonr, and the farmors of
Orangcburg District have but to speak and it
wW be done. Let US look matters in the face.
and be not frightened out of all propricty.--
'Tis the eye of childhood that fears u painted
devil !" R,' traa
shall suggest to you, i'll tho next issue of
this paper, feasible plan for carrying out
these views. SCRUTAToR.
