Up to very recent period We have
had but little hopo of seeing the defeat
of the Radical party in South Carolina
at tho coming fall elections. In this
matter, however, our mind is changed.
We now think that bold, vigorous and
united struggle upon the part of the
white people will redeem the State
The mon put forward as the leaders oi
the Republican party in this State are OF
such scandalous reputation as would
sink any party in this world. Their
venality and unblushing cffrontery in
wickedness has alarmed and scandalizcd
the whole Republican party. Their mos,
influential Journals at the North hav.
attempted to relieve tho party Of their
odium by reading them out.
The colered men by whose votes these
notorious Williams are supported, enrich
ed and honore !, have been duped about
as long as tits possible to do so. They
arc beginning to open their eyes, and
cannot, we think, be much longer fooled
In this district lot us make brave and
united effort to deliver our country. 1t
is q noble object, and worth mighty
effort. We want to see South Carolina
once more in the hands of her own pco-
plo and governed by decent mon

The speeches at Wadliugton's ore
being already hoard from. We are
informed that many sensible oolored men
havo come over to the side of truth an
honesty, and express satisfaction that
they have been enabled to hear of the
corruption and dishonesty Of the party
who would lead them to utter ruin. Let
the good work 60 on. Truth will pre-
vail. The Reform tide increases in
volume and power, and We shall soon
hear of scores and hundreds turning
their backs on the Scott ring, and their
faces to the Reform Party.
Accounts from other districts are
equally, and in scrnc, greatly more
cheering.
Let every white man constitute him,
self a speaker and button hole one
sensible voter, and if he makes an
impression keep his hold till the gar

THINK OF 1T.

If tho Scott-Nloses party is not de-
feated, how much do you think you
will have to pay next year in taxes
Enough to make you mad enough then,
although getting mad then will only
make them laugh at you. If you want
to escape that trial, think of what these
men have already done, and what they
are still doing, and get mad no,o, whom
you can do something toward saw
ing yourself, your family and your
country. Be wise in time. Work while
you can-and help all you can, in saving

One nr. Hicks, the present editor,
and carpet haggcr, has taken over the
AlA Century bodily into the Radical
lamp. Tho number for August throws
of all disguiscs and comes out boldly in
favor of Scott for Governor. Referring
to tho Conservative platform, it says

We can understand DR.. Hicks in no
other way than that he is in sympathy
with the Scott party. The mass Of the
sensible people of the State can under.
stand him in no other way, aud the
Scott party understand him in no other
way, as is evidenced by the fact that
his article is copied into the columns of
the Charleston Republican, Scott's own
particular organ.
Hence we DO not hesitate to say that
our people are nursing a yiper in their
bosom. when they continue to support
the XIX Century.

preparing for imposing meetings.

bad RoLIoY.

An alteration occurred, some days
ago, at tho Columbia hotel, Columbia }
between Capt. GEO. TupPEh and Mr..
JOHN NJ. NORRIS, the latter of tho Char.
lesion Republican--beoause Of the pub
lication ofinfamous and scurrilous abuse
of Gen. BUTLER. Capt. TuPpER struck
MIR. MoRRIs twice, severely, when the
latter retreated up the stairway.
At a later period, Capt. DAWSON, one
of the editors of tho Charleston News,
inflicted chastisemeut upon Mr. MYRoN
Fox, another Of tho editors of the Re
pudlicaa, in consequence of tho publica-
ton of gross personal insult.
Iu either event, we admit the provo
cation was great, and tue punishment
justly warranted, but at the same time,
We regret that the vulgar abuse Of Gen.
BUTLER or Of Capt. DAWSON was noticed
in any way. Those gentlemen need no
vindication from such assaults; and
then, according to all recognized usage,
among men Of character, to accept an
offered insult and to seek redress, is
regarded an acknowledgement of the
status of the party from whom it comes.
Apart from this, resort to personal
violence on our part, gives advantage
to the opposition, both at home and
abroad.
In the main, We would say, while on
THE cubic that discretion with US, now,
essentially, is the better part of valor.
Let us possess our spirits in peace, and
let SCOTT and his party do all the talk
ing about Winchester rifles. 1t is the
snrcst way to disarm him, aud to make
his attempts to carry his election by the
force of arms rccoil on his own head.

REV. JONAS BYRD AT NKWDERRY

We extract from the columns of the
Mew6erry Herald, paper that is doing
good service for Union and Reform, tho
following report of the speech of Rev.
Jonas Byrd at. Wadliugton's. Let it be
read to the colored people:
Tho last speaker WAS the Rev. Jonas
Byrd, q colored presoher frors Charles
ton, and the announcement that he was
to speak drew in all tho straggIers
His speech was nut for tho radical
party to crack it was certainly q good
one. He alluded to the Convention
platform of the Reform party, said it
was good, broad, liberal, aud suited the
case Of black and white honest men, was
the only platform for safety, hoped no
colored man would refuse to act
independently, aud vote freely with the
Union Reform Party. lie was sorry
that the greatest battle we had to: fight
was with his own people, was sorry his
race believed lies bigger than even the
devil told In Paradise. It was lie
whom the Republican Party said they
fought for the freedom Of the black man
They never did. And you put those
mon in Office, who are robbing you and
running South Carolina, put them in
Office under false promises. Where is
your mule and forty acres 7 where 2
The devil only knows. They promised
you forty acres, did any Of you ever get
them ? (Crics Of no, no.) Did you ever
get any mules? (No, no. They
promised you meat aud bread, did you
get thstH (No, uo,) again. No, and
you never will. They don't belong
here what they promise is never full :.
filled 7; ifa white Southern gentleman
makes a promise, you can rely on it.,
but never on the promise of one Of these !;
l have found it out in my long expert
ence. Don't believe them, Who are these
men. Wolves in sleeps clothing, who
never owned more than box of paper
collars, but who are now worth hundreds
of thousands, aud who are buying up
lands, riding in fine buggies, wearing
tlashy rings, and who would leave you
who voted for them, to starve. They tell
you to vote for Scott, because he's stolen
enough and wont steal any more I; but
it's lie; don't vote for him, if you love
yourself, your wives, and children, and
would save the money you dig out of the
ground, and would be independent aud
happy. Just as we'll vote for the old
devil I told you about. He's better
mau than Scott now, even with his toll
and horns, for be goes about like roar
ing lion, while Scott is wolf aud is the
head of j whole pack of thom. Come
out of the leagues too, he said, no man
is free who is bound to them and oh,
my colorcd friends and brothers remem-
Der what say, if you would be free,
happy and independent, vote with the
Union Reform Party.

m WE FAIL.

In the present struggle, to redeem
tho State, tho fault will be with the
white people of tho State. The re-
sponsibility will be on the ':sads of the
few intelligent white men who are
disoouraging tho Reform party-upon
those who bubble in the face Of the
stern, vital, life and death issue-upon
those who stand aloof aud refuse to put
their shoulders to tho wheel-upon
those who say that nothing can be done,
and suiting their action to their will
and word, do nothing to help the cause,
but all they can to discourage it.
