a Relief.

The recess of Congress is relief to the
South, in the failure to perfect and carry
out nany of the iniquitous schemes pro-
posed. The villainous bill Of Payne for the
arming Of the loyal, ifpassed, and the arms
distributed, would most certainly have led
TO war of races, but it has failed, and for
a time at least We are spared the calamity,
and vel have reasons to be grateful Like
wise the bill for the reorganization Of ViF-
ginia, Mississippi and Eexas, died out in
the Senate, after passing the House.. This
strocious scheme gave the State Constitu-
tons power to remove all officers, from
Governor down, and to appoint others to
appoint registers and judges Of election, to
revise the registration lists, that military
commanders shall aid in enforcing laws, s,and
that no persons shall vote in those States
for electors, and if so, upon conviction,
should be subject to a fine Of $1,000, and
one years Imprisonment.

'The War between the States,

Its Causes, Character, Conduct and Re-
SUITS" by Hon. Alexander II. Ste
phens, is the title of a valuable work
just issued by The National Publish
, ing Co., Atlanta, Ga.
Histories of the late civil war have
sprung up like mushrooms, and they
can now be numbered almost by hum
dreds, but all who are desirous of ar
irving at correct understanding Of the
causes, and'a clear history of the events
of the late lamentable war, have felt the
want of reliable history of the same
from a Southern standpoint, by some
representative man of the South. This
want is about to be supplied by Alexan-
der H. Stephens. Mr.. Stephens was a
most earnest protestant against rebellion,
and only succumbed at the last moment,
when his State, in spite of his warning,
committed the great error.
The bare announcement that this dis.
tinguisbed Statesman had determined to
write book, would Of itself, be sufi.
cient to kindle lively and ide-spread
interest in all sections of the country;
but when it is known that he has chosen
as bis theme the one so fruitful as The
Late American War, the absorbing in
terest of the subject, together with the
evident and singular fitness of the au-
thor for it's treatment, unite in awaken
log a curiosity entirely unparalleled in
the annals Of American literature.
- 1t presents.a carefol political analysis
of the past, separating Real from Appa-
rent causes of the late unhappy conflict,
and gives those interior lights and shad-
ows of the Great War, only known to
those high officers, who watched the
food.tide of Revolution from its foun-
tain.springs, and which were so accessi-
bic to Mr.. Stephens from his position as
second officer of the Confederacy. -
To a public that has been surfeited
with apparently similar productions, it
presents a change of fare, both agreeable
and salutary, and an intellectual treat Of
the highest order. The Great American
War has at last found historian wor-
thy of it's Importance, and at whose
hands it receives that moderate, candid
and impartial treatment which truth and
justice so urgently demand. ,
This most valuable work is sold only
BY subscription, and the publishers want
an agent in every, County.

Mr.. Miles 0Riley makes the following
capital and sensible sketch, Of the above
named paper.
Finally, Men and Brethren! looking at
il in this light, so that$it can do you no
harm ; believe US, if you have never seen
the paper We are writing about, you
should lose no time in obtaining copy
of its weekly issue, which usually con.
denses all the bitterness. bestialities, bril-
liancies, brutalities, and bonmotteries of
the weeks daily issue: There are parts
of it as good as Rabelsis, and far more
that SAVIOUR of the Newgate calendar.
You xilf find that racy, exaggerative
Western hunor flashing out here and
there, very probably. set around with
paragraphs. the fungus growth of some
intellectual cess pool. As comic politi-
tical paper, that is, as paper burlesqu-
ing, masquerading, and exaggerating
Democratic ideas, SO as to- make them
appear either absurd or edieus, or both
togetber,-the La Crosse Democrat has
no rival in the country:

The Bankrupt Act.

This act as sknown, expired on the I st
of June; and now by action of Congress
has been extended to the first ofJanuary
1862, Mr.. Frelinghuysen called it up in
the Senate, (baving previously passed in
the House, when it was passed. Thus
another period is afforded the unfortu-
nate debtor, and that there are many
who viii avail themselves of it we have
nodoubt:. The following is the text
A-biff to amend can Act, to establish
a uniform system ofBankruptcy through
out the United States" approved March
2, 1857.

shall be granted to debtor whose assets
shall not be equal to fifty per centum Of

The New York Herald's Predictions.

Nothing stronger or more hopeful to
the democratic cause and the country
has yet appeared than the five unpro.
phetic utterances Of the great Oracle, the
Herald, which all failed in their time,
and which some psins.taking ard indus.
trious editor has dished up for the people.
We allude to the prophecies made as to
the defeat Of Polk, in 1874; Taylor in
in 1s4s, Pierce in 1852, Buchanan in
1856, and Lincoln in 1860. In spite Of
the Herald's. prophetic vision and its an
sthemas, all of these were elected: And
now following out the same dream as it
were, the oracle says of the nomination
of Seymour and Blair, "the die is cast,
and the democratic convention has deci.
ded that our next President shall be
Grant" God grant that the sixth proph:
ecy be like unto the Eve preceding. We
are more sanguine than ever, for the
Herald has proclaimed the death of the
Radicals.

Te Democratic Newberry.

At particular jupcture in affairs, and
from this time till after the November elec>
tion., it behooYes democrats, each and every
one, TO- keep posted as to current events.
The times are stirring, big with foreshadow-
I ings, Of things to come, and We cannot but
think ttss the cause in which all true men
of the South are engaged, and in which the
great masses Of the north are throwing all
their energies-for constitutional liberty, and
the peace and happiness of our county,
will culminate in a glorious success. The
signs are indeed many and significant. Ev>
cry day brings note of fresh victories, and
sccessions, immense meetings, hearty CO..
operation, and an enthusiasm which is per-
meating society North, south, east and west.
Every where are taken up the names of Sey.
mour snd Blair. Already are the swelling
ranks overhowing, democrats and conserva-
tives frsternizing and through these various
means the dupes of radical carpet-baggers,
thieves and sealswsgs are being enlightened
and brought TO their senses. How important
then that democrats be thoroughly posted,
how important that each be in possession Of
good democratic paper. We speak parti-
cularly for this district, aud think that every
man in it, and woman too-for the ladies
can work. miracles where men fail, who
does not take paper, should dc so at once.
Should take It for the campaign af fou-
months if no longer. We do BOT object to
their taking the leading northern Is wen az
our owpscisy papers, for no Investment pays
Better interest than that money which is
put into newspaper. and the more the bet>
ter too, but We would not have them
forget that they have a district paper,
one identified with their every interest,
and one which is doing its part, humble
though it be, in the great work Of right. We
have now auxiliary clubs at every svailabls
point in. the district, and these clubs We
are proud 70 say are influential and strong.
In these clubs though, and in their neigh.
borhoods, there are persons who do Rot take
their own district paper, but depend upon
the chance of borrowing their reading. and
who look anxious!y and regularly for club
news, (Which proceedings we publish when<
ever sent 70 rs, and dfor whatever else is do
ing in OF out of the district. Is this righ: !?
Every member Of club should recognize
the claim which their district democratic pa
per has upon them, aud should sdvsnce its
interests, in fursherancs of the great cause.
We suggest that the various clubs recon-
mend this paper as theE organ, that sound
principles and doctrines may be disssmina>
ted every where. and every man and woman
in their bounds know what is going on.

The Laureus Herald, states that diff.
Gculty occurred on the the 22d between
TIVE freedmen, Griffin and Williams,
which resulted in the stabbing and kill.
ing Of Williams.
The same paper says that q row took
place at Martins depot, on the occasion
of some public speaking, and while a
colored man was on the stand, radical
negro interrupted him with offensive Ian.
guage, and white man interfering, re-
ceived blow which knocked him down.
This brought on melee, in which sevs-
raj whites and blacks received injuries,
but none seriously.

parties agree in testifing vas magniG-

ton. All praise and honor to the dem
ocrats of Columbia and Richland. All
along the line of march taken by the
great procession, transparencies and H.
luminations greeted the eye,' and stirred
the heart. At the Phoenix Office, the
sight of thirty-seven beautiful girls ar
rayed in white, nearly lifted the pro-
cession from off it's feet. Such cheers
never were heard before, and Selby
must have grown at least an inch taller
at the appreciation of his scenic repre-
sentation. Long may they wave-the
brave democracy. The speakers on the
occasion were Gems. Chestnut, S. Nc.
Gowan, T. B. Kershaw and Wade
Hampton. The speech Of Gen. Hampton
will be found on our outside.

features, planned and executed by

In ANoTHER PLAcE.-Some weeks ago

the voice which foated through Pools

our wrath is appeased. But onr sttsnn,-:
