To clasp hands with them, to join in elevatlne
them again to Office, is that which, whatever
Gov. Orr may term it, all honest men OF all
classes cannot but regard in the highest sense
as "a sacrifice of principle"
The Union Reform movement Is not polltl-
cal party. It is neither Democratic or Repub-
lican. There is no remuneration of principle.
1t is antagonistic to no party, but to bad gov
ernment. And this Governor Orr himself un-
consciously admits, when he says: 1.-THE dis
tinguished nominee of that Convention for
Governor is a Republican, his associate for
Lieutenant Governor, no less distinguished, was
formerly Democrat"
The Union Reform movement has had its
origin in the necessity of the times. 1t has
sprung from the people. 1t is the common eff
fort of all parties and of all classes to rescue
their State from the degradation which im-
pends.
Gov. Orr will find, we trust, all of his insidu-
Gus appeals for the supremacy of faction IN

his hands, when, in view of the living and pa
tent facts of the past and present, he appeals
in the words of the demagogue to the white
race of the soil for the support of his newly
chosen party, against their own people and
State. The abolition of imprisonment for debt
and the Homestead was provided for by mill
tary enactment, before the advent of the So
called Republican party in this State These
were recognized in other States by all parties,
whether Democratic or Republican. They owe
their origin to no party, but to the public SEN
timent of the people. The people owe these
enactmcnts to themselves. 1t was their act and
deed. And when Gov. Orr bids every voter "to
remember when he comes to cast his vote, who
furnishes shelter in sunshine and storm over
the heads of his wife and Children" he resorts
to device so false and delusive that it will fall
harmless before the people of this Common.
wealth. He has cut the bridge from behind
him. He has cast his lot with the friends of
misrule. 'Ephraim is joined to his idols"
He will fail to induce the people of this State
to join him in their worship. The people have
intelligence enough to see the meshes of the
net which he has spread for their capture.
Governor Orr has justified The predictions of
his enemies, and disappointed the judgment of
his friends. At time of great public peril,
he stands forth as the would-be political be-
trayer of his native State.-Char'eston Courier.

GERMANS AND DUTcHMEN.-A correspon-
dent calls attention to what he terms frequent
mistake of Americans. He says Dutchmen in
this country are very often called Germans, and
Germans are called Dutchmen, while the diff
ference in nationality and language is almost
as great as between English and French people.
Dutchmen are Hollanders, natives of that in
dustrious and illustrious little nation from
whence came the first settlers in New York
city and State and in portions of Pennsylvania.
Holland, or the Netherlands, is kingdom, in
dependent from any other power, governed now
by William III. of Orange. Holland has never
been part of Germany. AS for the language,
the correspondent says: "Though there are a
yery few words in the German language that
are the same or sound like the same in Dutch,
a German cannot understand the Holland Ian
cuage, neither can Dutchman the German,
unless he has had the necessary instruction"

THE LORDS DAY.-There is no better test of
piety than the manner in which this day is OBJ
served. The spiritually-minded prize it as a
season of instruction, worship and communion
with God. With them the question is, not
how far may We lawfully engage in labor, re-
creation or amusement? but how may we best
improve its hours for our own edifcation and
comfort, and for the good of others? With the
worldly minded the question is entirely reversed.
They inquire, not how they may derive spiritu-
al benefits from it, but how far they may use it
for purposes of worldly profit and pleasure. It
does not check the current of their weekday
thoughts and affections, but merely turns them
into another channel

PUBLIC SPIRIT AND How TO ENCOURAGE
IT-In rejecting over the method of awaken
ing and keeping alive public spirit in the coun-
try in this State, it has seemed to us, that if
citizens would resort 10 the ballot more general
ly in their township or neighborhood meetings
and also in their large County meetings,
healthier and more earnest interest IN what
nearly concerns them al would perhaps gradu-
ally grow up and spread. The proper way to
appoint delegates, candidates, important COM
mittees, &C., is by ballot. Let every neighbor-
hood in Fairfield, for example, ballot for dele
gates to nominating convention to meet at
the Court House next month and when met,
let the convention ballot for candidates.
We know that the causes of a lack of public
spirit in the country which leads citizens to
leave the management of their politics to a few
active men, are various and deep, and not to be
remedied by any mere quackery. We, never
theless, throw out the suggestion OF more
general resort to balloting, as something that
has tendency to do good. Under this present
system of picked chairman and packed COM
mittees, three or four men manage the entire
County of Fairfield, and the same is true of
other Counties in the State. The ballot, sys-
tematically resorted to, would very often quiet
ly and silently and unexpectedly astonish the
community, and those that usually manage its
politics, by the names it would bring out at the
head of important committees, and for delegates
and candidates; and the men flung forward by
the ballot would warm into enthusiasm from a
consciousness that strong friends were quietly
behind them. Until something of this sort is
demanded by public opinion, cordial thanks are
due to those few citizens who undertake much
drudgery, to serve the people to the best of their
ability. If citizens will not take the trouble to
attend public meeting, how can they do other
wise than feel justly grateful to those public
spirited and active men who do take the trouble
to do so, and thus pay in full, for whatever
honor their trouble may bring them Winns-
boro News.

shadow of heart or brain but will lift sooner

NOMINATING CoNvENT1oNs.-The necessity
and policy of making nominations of delegates
from the whole people is ably set forth by the
Spartanburg Spartan in the annexed paragraph,
which is applicable to every county in the
State:
It is desirable above all things that there be
a full delegation at the Convention, and that
every delegate come animated with the single
desire of making such nomination AS will be
most acceptable to the people, and profitable to
the county. We trust that none will come with
the stubborn purpose of nominating any special
favorite, and persistently objecting to everybody
else. Let no delegate be pledged to advocate
anybody's claims, but let each one come free and
untrammeled, without prejudice, and in the
spirit of Cancellation and concession, prepared
to yield if necessary, gracefully and patriotical-
ly to the will of the convention. We cannot
afford to quarrel now over the comparative
merits and claims of individuals. We have a
grand and glorious work to be wrought-a ter
rible battle to be fought against the legions OF
corruption and dishonesty-a noble State, our
civic mother, to be rescued from reckless and
ruthless oppression. Victory is certain if we
are united and constant and only disgraceful
defeat can result from mutiny and DIVISION
Our patriotism ought to elevate us above the
regions of passion and prejudice What if
some friend Of ours, however great we may think
his claims, should fail to be the choice Of the
convention? If he should be nominated our
neighbor's friend would necessarily be rejected (;
and if we have right to complain in the first
then we must mus f0pssdS edd the hs mD sgRs
secure harmony and unanimity of action, which
is the sole object of the convention. We know
there are few who still object to nomination,
and make spread-eagle declarations about the
dear people" having the right to vote TOR whom
they please, &c, but we think the "dear people"
appreciate the circumstances which make a
nomination necessary too well to be affected by
such buncombe stuff. We should like to know
if every candidate does not become so by NOM
ination and which is the fairer way to get it,
through the whole people, or half dozen special
f,iendse But we have no doubt that the wis
dom of the convention will commend itself to
the good people of our County, and that we
will present such an undivided front to the en-
emy in October, that he will quit the field in
defeat and despair.

The Necessity Of Thorough Organization.
SUCCESS DEPENDS ON THE INDIVIDUAL EFFORT
OF EVERY HONEST MAN.

A correspondent of the Edgefeld Adyerhse7
presents the following sensible and timely
views as to the expediency and necessity Of
thorough organization in every county:
The published reports of the Mass Meetings
of the Union Reform Party in the Upper
Counties are certainly encouraging, but success
after all will depend on the honest efforts
of Individual citizens. The earnest and eloquent
appeals of the Corps of Speakers now trayersing
the State; their denunciations of the Scott
Ring, and their manly efforts to expose the
rascality and frauds of the present administra-
tion, are no doubt useful in arousing the peo-
pie. But if the intelligent portion of the COM
munity depend entirely on the efforts of Judge
Carpenter and Gen. Butler, without putting
their own shoulders to the wheel, there is but
slight hope of success.
It is too often the case that citizens neglect
to take any part in the struggle other than
simply casting q vote on the day of election.
They do not appreciate the importance of their
INDIVIDUAL EXERTIoNs they decline to act
on Committees, or to subscribe funds for the
necessary expenses of the campaign. Each
one thinks it the duty of some one else to do
the work.
1t appears to me that our public speakers
should give more attention to instructing the
people how to organize, and what to do indi-
vidually-giving specific instructions, rather
than depending so much on general principles.
Gancing at the list of appointments already
made, it is plain that Judge Carpenter and
General Butler will hardly have time to can
vass the whole State Thousands-especially
of the colored population-will not have an
opportunity of attending the mass meetings at
which these gentlemen are expected to appear !;
Others, who may have the opportunity, will not
attend many who are willing to exert them
selves, know not what to do. Would it not be
we'll to organize another corps Of speakers, to
assist those now in the field so as to keep up
the enthusiasm of the people by more frequent
assemblages?
Instructions should be forwarded to the Off
GERS of the clubs of every precinct by those
conversant with political maneuvres, warning
them of the tricks likely to be played, and
pointing out methods to counteract the games
of their adversaries. Suggestions should be
made as to the best methods of guarding against
illegal voting and ballot-boX stufing.
The organization of the Radical party is
most efficient and thorough, and it would be
we'll for us to learn from them how to influence
the colored population. They do not depend
on large mass meetings alone.
want to see more earnestness of purpose,
and more energy displayed by the rank and
file of the Union Reform Party. Let EVERY
MAN in favor of an honest and economical ad-
ministration of the Government, GO TO WORK,
feeling his INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY, and
the victory will be won North Carolina has
thrown off the shackles of the Radical Tyrants
and Robbers, and South Carolina CAN and
MUST do likewise.

THE FRANCHISE QUEsTIoN.-In the
strongly Democratic State Of Delaware
men are DISTINGUISHED for not paying
taxes. There, poverty bars every man
from the ballot-box. In Pennsylvania,
which has been under the control Of
the Democracy many times during the
past quarter of a century, poor men
cannot vote. In Rhode Island, where
Senator Sprague, when = Democrat,
formerly ruled the State councils, pow
erty works a forfeiture Of the franchise.
Massachusetts polls usually about 49,
900 votes, yet she DISTINGUISHES $4,000
because they cannot read and write.
Indeed, more than one-fourth Of the
male inhabitants Of that State, over
twenty-one years of age, cannot vote.
OF the disfranchised, over $4,000 thou
sand are kept from the ballot because
they have no property liable to tax
alton. Certainly, these men are not
all paupers, but they are not rich
enough to vote. In the State of Ne
vada, every citizen can vote, If he is
locally qualified, by just paying his
pell-tax, four dollars. This poll-tax
is about all the tax which the majority
of voters in the State pay during the
year.
