the cultivation OF SORGO as 4 Crop, which are
tile small amount OF labor; the hardy character
Of the plant In its ability to endure, without ma
teria injury, both drought and wet: Its freedom
from the attack OF worms; its early maturing
and the fact that the Seed and every part OF the
plant Is OF great value.
In consequence D. the imperfect method
hitherto adopted In preparing the Juice OF this
Cane, there has arisen prejudice, and the belief
that Sugar could not be produced, but only very
inferior Syrup But, by the discovery OF the
Southern Process these opinions have been COM
pletcly reversed In the minds of all those who
have examined and tested this Process, as they
realize that not only pure Syrup, superior to the
hest Chemical Syrups Of the Relnertes, Is pro-
luced, but also Sugar equal to the best New Or.

scum and refuse of Northern

con is right.-Columbus Index
We publish this paragraph that
it may be seen that we are not
alone in pointing ont some of the
errors, or rather the abuses of the
present system of Introducing
laborers into the State. There
are bad and mercenary men every
where. And because we point to
one planter who has violated his
contract with his hands, it should
not he considered, as it is not in
tended, as an assault upon the
honesty Of the whole class. And
If we should say that certain
agents engaged in furnishing Ia
borers to planters, consult their
pecuniary interest more than the
good of the State, it does not nee.
essarily follow that we have made
an indiscriminate assault upon all
persons engaged in the business,
And if we should show that here
and there an immoral and
bad man had been brought to
the State, through the medium Of
these agencies, it should not be
charged that we declare that al
who come are bad and immoral
We simply point to these things
that they may be corrected. There
b no policy in the world so ruin

Founding evils, hoping because

RADICAL mODEsrY.

A few days since benjamin. T.
WhlttemOre-eieeted from the FIRST
Congressional District in South
Carolina, through the persuasive
elOqlence Of bayOnet rule-was ex.
PEELED from Congress because Of
his corruption, or rather It was
not so much because of his corrup-
ton as his inability to conceal lis
vinainy. Chat party does not at
tach any disCredit to a member Of
1t for corruptness; the want Of It,
however, would be au unpardona-
Bile sin, yet they dislike 10 see one
of their number do an act Of this
kind in a bungling or unprofes-
sional manner, aud hence the clr-
pet.bagger WhittemOre was expell-
cd. III oldeti time 1t would have
been adisgrace from which no man
could ever hope to recover; his
friends and family would all desert
him and cast him forth an object
of contempt, aud the poor misera-
BILE creature would have either
been forced to the commission Of
suicide or have become .eelf.eXpa-
triated, Not so in the new era.
/ Whittemoro publicly declares that
he intends TO return to his con-
stiiuents aud ask for = reelection.
This Is the "new dispeusation.'
Shame and all that sort Of thing In
| political life nowadays is as Rey-
nolds, the New York city mur-
derer, says of hanging-"played
out" This man Whittemore was
expelled because he made busi-
ness of selling himself to lobbyists,
and finally he became caIlous and
indifferent to public opinion
and transacted his sales in
the most public manner
Among Others he dealt in West
Point and Annapolis stock. Each
Congressman has the right to re-
commend some lad for appoint
ment to each of these institutions.
Heretofore merit was the qnalili-
cation which secured these recon-
mendatiOns, but in this instance
the Radical, emulating the secret
act of his cOVeres openly offered
the positions in his gift for sale
The recommendations were bought
and paid for, and that very UirtuoUl
and honest body, the Congress o.
the United States expelled him
from his seat in Congress. But he
. nothing abashed, says he is goinl
back TO South Carolina aud appea
to his negro constituency for re
5 election. So the Radical WOrlt
