CHARLIE S TON.
WEDNESDAY MORNING. AUGUST 10, 1863.
rAs r.... Of the City.

It is our:plpssant duty this msrning to
ohrol Gle tha: tho visit Of the Savannah
Bsse Ball Club has passed of without dis
turbance Of any kind, and that our Geor-
gisn friends have d.psrted for their homes
with none bat pleasant reeollsotions Of
Charleston s.d her people. Every decent
member Of the community, white or black,
1ill rejoice with rs ct 70 quiet terri ina
.ion Of what at one time threatened to be
troublous affair; and the eitizsns'sre justly
gratified that all that 1t was possible to do
has been done to redeem . reputation for
hospitality which had been SO sadly tar
nished BY the riotous dOings on previous
occasion.
That the visitors in this instance were
spared the insults and injuries to which
they were onoe before subjected, was, We
aold, due, and due, only, to,the determine
ton 80 plainly evincsd by the whole mass
Of the white population. that protection

Who had become SO peculiarly the guests Of
The community. And in saying this, We intend
to cast no reflection upon the manhood or in
tsgrity Of the individual members Of the
poliee force. That body, for aught that We
know to the contrary, may be composed OF
men as brave and as faithful to duty as could
be wished. But We do say, that the eficiency
Of the po ice organisation has been i'm
paired to degree hitherto unknown in thr
history Of the city. by partisan influences;
and that thA- -M..i-;r-s-auvnorltles under
whose orders the police must act, have los'
tho confidence and respect (if they ever
had either) Of whites and blacks alike
Who believes that Mayor Pillsbury would
in any case dare to level his Winchester
rifles at mob Of the black men, whose
votes have made him what he is?

How shan We n.deen the state,

Prudent men throughout the State art
already eanvassing the prospects Of an anti
Radical or Democratic success in the cleo
tions which take place in South Carolina in
the fall Of 1870 This is looking long
way ahead, but the Radicals are thorough
ly organized, whatever their internal dis
seusions, and it is admitted that they can
not be thoroughly defeated without ample
preparation, united action, and steady
and continuous work. v, do not, We be-
lieve, exsggerate or misinterpret public
sentiment, in saying that there is general
recognition Of the fact that q oompleteoSsr.
throw Of the South Carolina Radicals in
1870 is absolutely necessary for the peace
aud prosperity Of the state. Among re-
spectacle men there is 50 far no difference
Of opinion, but there appears to be some
doubt as to what plan Of battle will most
certainly be eucoessful It is agreed that
we must win the fight. The question is bow
may We win it?
The Edge6eld Advertiser, q staunoh De.
mocrstio Newspaper, published in E igefeld
County, is anxious that the Democratic par
ty should at once be put upon war foot
Ing. It says, smphstioally: I'VE mast tri-
'umph in 1870 We must elect our men; but
"our saying so will not make it 80. Our
"succ.ss depends upon the organisation of
sour party, and the collection Of men aud
'.materisls for the great struggle at the bal
slot boz in 1870" The article from hich
this passage is taken concludes with these
words:
''Ou- adversa1ies are evidently wide awake,
aud in the last twenty days numbers Of their
leaders from all parts Of the State have been
Seen at our capital. Some important change
is going on IN their ranks. 1t is thought BY
many that the Uninn League IS dsappt arlng
before the Grand Army of the Repubnc. lhe
Raoi"als are undoubtedly m king preparations
for tue campaign OF 70. They are in power,
and like vultures ale feastine upon the very
vltals Of our oppressed State. What can we
do2 Brave m n. honest men want to know
what can be done to ward off the dangers
which surround them. Everything is contain
cd In the one word, WORK. Leaders OF the De-
mocrac, must get to their work before it Is
too late. Let our committees be formed; let
our banners fuat at every cross-road; let the

Gratis number thousands. H the work Of or

10 the triumph Of the Democratic party IN
1870"
This is one view Of the matter, and ia
widely different from the position taken By

paper, which says:

rather intended us 4 teacher The light
and cheerful reading is but designed to
lioat the more serious and important
matter; so as to bring it in contact net
only with the youthful mind of Ameri-
ca, but that more matured. While puD-

rapid growth and present grandeur OF
your (permlt me also TO say 'my") ma

material happiness and mental refine

IL the history Of the human race. And
all this Is due to the "Republc !"

The Ncwsdca'cr thinks the prospects
of the Lamoile Valley Railroad are very
promising. Wcquate from its last is
sue:
since last week several events of con-
siderable interest have happened favora-
bic To our great project. The directors
have all been ut work like beavers, ana
most OF them have very tangible evil
dc ices to cNhilit MS the re uit of their
Iabors. Mr.. iIcndce falling in with
Hon. T. w. Park, offered him The sub
scri ption book and solicited subscription
aud he unhcsitatingiy responded by sub
scribing for 50sharcs. \. w. Griswold,
OF n. ", and owner of the Malvern
Farms, took Is shares, and will take 25
more, if nece >sGry, which we think very
liberal in him. In MOrrisvillc, Johnson,
and VOL oft Il good number OF subscrip-
tons, of one share and upwards to five
shares, have been taken and the most
enthusiastic feeling is manifested. \
meeting Of the Directors is called at
Cambridge on the 9th proX. anda town
meeting i'll that town the same day.
Another meeting is t, be held in VOL
colt on saturday evening next, and n
movement is on foot hold Il meeting
in Eden. Indeed, the valley seems
thoroug lly aroused, and dctc9mind-
ton IS manifested which seems the best
augury OF success.
Oar friends in franklin county are
equally on the alert. Swanton and
Highgate have had their town meetings,
and voted by overwhelming ln1joritics
to remove the Objectionable conditions
from tAoir subscription contracts, and
private subscriptions are being freely
taken. Up to this time. everything has
moved more smoothly forward than we
could have anticipated. Three weeks
more of such success and the work of
our hearts will be accomplished.

From the Cincinnati Com,n,rcio
t06incJ .Sprc"IdiioHS.

A. to the Cabinet, it may DC called cer-
tain that Mr.. T.. Is. Washburnc, o. hi
nois, wants Il place in il and will pei the
Sccretaryship OF the Interior; and there
VIII uc no mistake made if ii isassumed
that Grant sYmpathizes stronglyin those
peculiar and ardent efforts 10 save the
peoples money which Washburne's ca
rccr in Congress has been d.Sting uiShed,
and which have made him hated ald
feared b., the lobby. Those bCs in
formed do not think there will bc Il
change in the War Department. There
is no more competent man for War Min
lister in the country than Gen. Schohcld,
and he Is on terms Of TIE clos st person
al friendship with Grant. 1t is conicc-
turcd, and something more, that Grants
secretary of the Navy will be a naval
officer and Admiral David ID. Porter i
very confidently named a. tic man. II
VIII bc rem cmberel that he and
Grant were during the war long and
intimately associate. in combined mill
tary an naval enterprises.
1t has been whispered in Washington
that Gen. Grant, during his visit to New
York city has been sounding some of the
eminent men ofttat place, rs to the Sec
reta yship Of the Treasury. That he
was at pains to gather opinions is pre- ty
clear. '!ow influential these opinions
may be is another matter. Bat, We may
add. that the most weighty New York
opinion favors NJ. David y. Wells for
secretary of the Treasury. That gentle
man has certainly displayed eXtraordn-
airy knowledge OF financial topics, and
honestly earned national fame. 1t is
certain shat Ora will not look among
the politicians for a Secretary OF Vreasu-
ry, and chat Mr.. Wells will be backed
by his excellent reputation, and by zca.-
ous friends OF hig distinction.
Last and not least, there is something
more than mere gossip as authority tor
thc assertion that &c /. Grant looks up
on Charles Francis Adams as man ad-
mirably calculated by education, cXpcr-
fence, ana temper for the management
Of our relations with foreign Powers
and one wcll-known friend of Gen.
Grant i quoted as saying that he
'knows" the Secretaryship ofState will
be offered Mr.. Adams.
