THE ATTITUDE OF RUSSIA.

Some light is thrown on the attitude of

the following extracts from recent Russian and other
journals.

immense naval power In anticipation OF this even
tuality, every Russian desires to know what we are
doing to receive the enemy. We have too much the

Good Out of Evil.

Our army officers, especially the
graduates of West Point, have been
doing yeoman's service to the South,
since the war, as the pioneers of ma
terial enterprise and development.
Wo arc really glad that they stand
but little chance, for the present, Of
political promotion, and have no de-
sire to return to the United States
service, even were the Yankees not
too mean people to permit it. The
presence of men, who invariably, when
commanding equal forces, fairly
whipped the fight, and frequently did
so, when largely outnumbered. would
be unpleasant and distateful to the
loyal officers of che army. And the
South needs these men, 20 build her
railroads, to manage her banks and
joint.stook companies to open her
mines, and to educate her daughters
and her sons.
To take a single example, on satur.
day last, we visited with Gen. Alex
ander, the Cotton Seed Oil Cake
Mandatory in Columbia. He has
on hand at least one thousand tons of
cotton seed. He showed US kene seed

Christian Unity.

It seems to us almost absurd that
there should be FIVE protestant
churches in Winnsboro. If the pro-
testants here would unite upon the
apostles aud the Nicene orced, and
build one large and handsome church,
and employ one preacher and assist
ant. how good and pleasant thing it
would be ! They all profess to ex-
poet to unite in heaven. but somehow
prefer disunion and weakness on the
earth. Five congregations prefer to
half-starve five preachers, rather than
unite and give comfortable support
to two. Yet they expect tho ministry
to continue well-educated, eloquent,
learned and efficient ! To all out
siders, and to many inside of the fold
too, this thing begins to appear alb.
surd. Why not unto in worship Z
And why not unite on the Apostles
and on the Nicene creed, the first con.
tanning the summary Of the historical
facts of christianity, and tho second,
of their orthodox Interpretation.
Now, Of course, we cannot believe
that Christ ever promised or intended
an external unity Of his church. It's
external unity is simply matter of
high expediency, and is to be viewed
especially with reference to tho sup.
port of the ministry. If Christ ever
promised and prayed for an external
unity, then clearly he was false
prophet and imposter, for such uni
ty has never existed, except ip the
noodles of those who insist upon
"apostolic succession," not in its true,
but in perverted Specification. He
promised and prayed for a spiritual
union, conc faith, one Lord, one Bap-
tism," (of the Spirit, most evidently J

HIl-advised Use of the Word
He0IiC1I.

The word, "radical," has, in this
State, and, indeed, in the Union, a
distinctive meaning, which it is the
interest and wisdom of all anti-radi-
Gals to keep up. 1t is associated with
excess, and with partisan injustice of
various sorts. Yet two papers in
this State have preferred to call us,
who propose to act with the Conserva-
tive republicans only until now Ma
tional Constitutional Party can be or
ganized, al Conservative RADICAL ;
and wo notice in our exchanges the
samo disposition outside of South
Carolina to fastcn the name Of RADICAL.
upon such as ourselves. If these at
tempts succeed, the term will become
Indifferent, that is; either good or
bad, according to the adjunct used
with it, and tho anti-radicals will
have flung away tho weapon that the
very word "rudical" is now capable
Of being in their hands. We will not,
therefore, ask, is this use Of small shot
against men. who simply can't see the
situation as they sec it, altogether
fair, but is it wise 7 We can only say
this for ourselves, that we arc afraid
of no nickname whatever, and that
finding disposition to class US
Radical, with calm philosophy we
have concluded not to kick against
it, and accordingly, have commenced
to uso the word radical in good
sense, as observant readers must have
noticed last week, though altogether
against our own Judgment as to the
right use of words. But when popu.
lar prejudice is appealed to against n
sincere thinker, wise man, if at the
same time fearless one, will imme-
diately assume the attitude Of perfect
indifference and If being sensitive
man, he feels little scorn at tho
same time, common sense will soon
enable him to repress Is.

The Charleston News DeCetV-
ing Itself.

Any man conscious that the United
States Government is now national
and consolidated, and not simply
federativc, cannot but take II most abb
sorbing interest in tho election Of tho
next House of Representative. The
canvass for Congress and for State Of
fees in this State will be simultane-
ously conducted. Hence wo think it
impossible to separate State and Fed.
oral politics next fall. 1t will not be
strength, but weakness, for the Juno
or any other anti.radical convention
to attempt it. A clear, plain, out.
spoken Federal policy, is demanded,
by the necessities of the case, of all
anti-radicals. The truth is, Federal
politics is the politics. TO doclare
no Federal policy, is to gain no
strength, for it is q clear case that tho
radicals and the administration will
act and voto on tho principle, that
che that is not with me, is against
me-" The effort of tho State press
should then be, to feel and prepare for
a Federal policy for the State suited
to its people and to the times.
The Ne,cs undertakes very bold
assertion, when it declares that tho
June Convention will eschew Federal
politics. But suppose chat it will
conform to the wishes Of the Ne,os on
this subject, and seem afraid Of Fede-
raj politics. What an insipid and
weak position that will be How
different from tho Walker party of
Virginia that declared squarely for

non.oommittal is sure to be intcrpre-
ted rs auti-administration, as we'll as
anti-radicnl, whereas at least a passive
support Of Grant is plain, common
scnse, in South Carolina, at this time.
Lastly If the anti-radical press Of
South Carolina oan succeed in oon.

tics next fall if it docs not, on the
contrary, take sidcs so very plainly
that the veriest fool will be able to
understand on which side in Federal
politics tho oitizens' party now being
attempted, but not yet formed, Is
ranged then, human nature will have
changed completely, and tho Charles
ton News itself will have become one
of tho dullest sheets from being q

Shallow philosophers and unreAect-
ing takers do much to prevent the
progress and development of the
South, by frequently saying, "Oh
you newspaper mon advocate it, be.
c'use you have nothing bo,ter to talk
about but the South has neither the
labor nor the skill for manufacturing,
and tho sober common sense of our
people acts upon that fact. We don't
want manufactures here. We are an
agricultural people," Now what do
these men mean by manufacturing or

A flour mill is manufaotory. They
moan, thon, that we have neither the
labor nor the skill for certain kinds Of
manufacturing. That is different
and very true proposition. And if

1t is simply a fact, that we can spin
cotton South, five cents cheaper on the
pound than anywhere else in the
world, and can weave all coarse cloths
from seven to ten cents cheaper. TO

He showed us three varieties Of cot
ton seed oil and cotton seed oil cake
OF two kinds, one kind made by a
newly patented chemical method,
which extracts the oil completely.
The boiler Of this blishment is o
curiosity. 1t consists of an arrange
ment Of very many gun barrels con-
nocted with each other, and il it ever
bursts, it is only possible for one Of
these gun.barrels to burst, and cmpty
all the steam in tho boiler down into
the furnace, putting out the FIRE.
This boiler is destined, in his opinion
and in ours, to superscde every other
patent. But tho most interesting
statement of all re can mako is this,
that from every bashel Of his cotton
seed General Alexander's lint ma
chine takes off three pounds of very
good lint, before the seed is conveyed,
by revolving elevator, to tho hulling
apparatus. A specimen of thip lint
may be seen at tho store of Capt.
1. N. Withers, with whom We have
left it for exhibition. 1t is probably
worth Is cents a pound.
