but these all after the conduct Of
the negroes had raised the white
blood, and the wonder is, We could
not hear Of open butcheries.
To O.day there are men enough
within quick striking distance Of
the fastness in the swamp Of the
defiant insurrectOnists, and the
days history Of the African war
In Sumter is yet to be written.
Not a trigger may be pulled, but II
one there may be 9 slaughter.
We deem it proper for US to re-
mark, that in all other parts of
Sumter, the negro population is
quiet and obedient to law, except
in the natural, matter. .of-course
thieving and stealing, and the two
populations on friendly relations,
each in its, proper place. 1t is
worthy Of remark in this connec-
ton, that one of the commissary
wagons that passed Livingston
yesterday was driven by negro.
These Belmont negroes receive
their inspiration from that sink
hole of Radicalism, Demopolis.
And thdt reminds US to say, 1t is
reported here this morning, that
Mcbride Jones is not in Demopo-
lis. We hope he is not in the
camp Of the insurgents, for we
sorter like Jones. Ifhe is, and the
boys conclude to go in to-day, his
name is Luke, and he had better
write a letter to his wife before
they catch him.

TRE OCTOBER wHIG GATH.
ERINGs

Our land boasts of no nobler
men or better citizens and gifted
Statesmen than have been and can
be found among the ranks of the
Wings Of Mississippi and else
where. Our political proclivities
and prejudices as q Democrat do
not prevent US from paying this
Just tribute to the honored and
gifted men who we know as unde.
niable Wings. Though there are
matters Of State polity upon
which Wings and Democrats diff
fer yet those parties in this State
have had the same objects to con
tend for, the protection of person
and property, the Development of
national prosperity and the guAran'
teed enjoyment Of the rights
of a republican freeman. These
objects both parties have ever
sought to guard and maintain
though they have honestly and
fairly diIered as3to the means to
be employed to these ends. Thus
our political struggle has been an
honorable one, for neither party
was endeavoring to attain power
in order to subserve the base
and selfish interests of individ-
uals and cliques, and to accom-
plish private gain at public
loss. Not so with Republicanism.
The party object with them has
been, the spails Of office, even al
the bankruptcy, degradation ant
ruin of the State or nation:
Knowing the moral stamina o
the Wing party, We do not ant
cannot believe they will or can bC
deceived by the plausible and spe
cious sophistry Of the "artfu
dodgers" Of the Radical party.
We do not and cannot believ
that the the pet scheme Of tn
RAIDS to get the Wing party, or
good portion thereof, under thei
thumb, will succeed. We do be
lieve that the attempt will recoi
upon its authors and that the eye
ofWhigs will be so opened by thi
treacherous move as to imp'
them to seek an honorable unio
with Democrats against the'frauC
corruption, tyranny. and wrong
Radicalism.
RepeubliCanism represents an
is represented by the Centralize
powers of the government, whic
represents the rule Of the bayone
Democracy is the only existel
organized party in opposition
this high political monstrosit
which represents the cause of Il
people. There are but two horI
to. this dilemma, and we cannr
doubt for one moment which OIL
the Wings will seize upon, al
where they will cast their presti
and influence.

The Mayor and Aldermen went
into executive session last Tues

action had therein is all secret
but from conversation on the
streets, we find that nothing is
unknown. The supplement to
the new charter provides that the
Mayor shall nominate one Of the
city banks as place Of deposit for
the city's money. Mayor Webber

his nomination thathe had received

officers of it had procured the sig

shown him, he had promised to
select this bank as the bank Of de.

placed in nomination the Valley
Bank. Mr.. Webber waived his
right Of nomination in permitting
DIR. Foster to make this nOmina-
ton and in permitting, without
protest, vote taken on the nomi-
nations. The result was as fol-
lows: the Valley Bank received
five votes and the Vicksburg Bank
received two votes. Thus selecting
the Valley Bank as the Bank Of
Deposit. Mr.. Webber then arose
and stated that he had the exclu,
sive right to make the nomination
and as he had not put the Valley
Bank in nomination he wonld moi

Ed Repu6 }ican,


Ed Repu5ljcon,
Did you have good time out at your
suburb on the Fonrth? Here, in the city,
we did anyway. We think we rather beat
you in the orator, if we did not have live
governor, or more than two or three militia
ry officers. But our Marsbals made enough
show for several governors, and obtained
victories over small boys and drunken Irish.
men enough to immortalize regiment of
brigadiers, In fact, I may say that they
succeeded in raising Ned.
Altogether, we had good time. There
were some three Or four thousand people
present. In the grove and around the speak
two thousand present. And there were
more than thousand more around town,
who were unable to get seat in the grove
at all. "a
FiIe-cracke1s torpedoes, &c. were strictly
prohibited, to the immense disgust Of the
boys, but to the great relief of all owners of
stores, barns. crinolines, FESTIVE horses and
other inhammable property.
The Grafton of Judge Orion was one of hi 6
best efforts It was enriched with a wealth
of Historical and Classical learning such as
! the Judge knows how to employ. He
touched upon The two great questions ofthe
future-the relation Of capital to labor and
! woman's rights. On the first, he only stated
| the question, but did not give any further
| opinion, than that capital labor should be
| left to fight it out without any such inter
ference as the importation of Cinnamon
| would be. He favored womans rights, SO
| far as to wish to clear our statute books of
| every remaining vestige of inequality in
| Grill rights between the sexes. Voting he re-
garded rather as a duty than as right, but
| he would be willing to give that e0hen a ma
| .j3rity Of the aoomen Themselves demanded 1t.
As his grafton will undoubtedly be pub
lished in accordance with the reqest Of the
about it.
In the afternoon 'fScaddon's Irreguars
| performed, and were reviewed n the pres
ence of two or three thousand spe etators. Ii
was the best thing Of its kind that has ever
been seen this section of the country. TIL {
'!Irregulars" were addressed by Tangel Nc
Cracker, of Milwaukee, in an irregular
speech. which deserved to be Published; but
to do it justice, the paper which published
his speech should give also photograph
of Tangel with his cuffs AMI spectacles
and also of the Irregulars, with their re-
doubtable commander, Captain Carskadden
And then you could not photograh+ the

RATHER PERSONAL As an evi,
dence of what fair dealing, business tact
and energy, and Ii beral system of adyer-
Using can accomplish, we know of no bet
ter example than the success which has al
tended Messrs. Orvis & Canes, in their eff
forts to establish themselves in business
here. Last Monday they sold, at their store,
ia this city, two Pianos, three Organs and
two Meiodeons We never hear them COM
plain Of hard times and we are inclined TO
believe that they know of nothing of them.
for since they first came here, three years
ago, their business has steadily increased till
the present time. They are gentlemen whom
it is a pleasure to meet in bus mess or social
relations, and as they always keep 'sopen
house" at their fine store opposite the Post
Office, any one calling upon them, either as
a customer or from motives of mere curiosity.
will be sure to receive cordial welcome.
