advocated half measures In opposition to the other

anticipated between the Murphyites and Greeleyites

To the inquiry OF the HERALD reporter concerning

that he did not wish to say anything regard to
those officials who had .resis ned." When asked
for The names Of the newly appointed men, he pre-.
tended to be equally foggy ana evinced a disposi-

room to doubt. The colored man is quick
to learn where his real interests lie, and
when he finds that his former master is only
striving for good government, and put
TRUTH. honesty and justice in the place of
villainly, extravaganza and corruption, then
he will be willing to throw aside his preju-
dices, forget his lessons from false teachers
and join hands with him for good govern

out some assistance, and it is the daty of
every white man to make every effort to
make Fplain to the mind of the black man,
that his vital interests are altogether bound
up with those of his former owner.

Certain United States officials in New
Orleans attempted to control the action
of the Republican State Convention, a
few days since. Marshal Packard, with
some of Grants bayonets, managed the
entire business, basing his action upon a
supposed disturbance, which, however,
did not occur. The Radical papers in
sist that the great disorder and confusion,
consequentupon the action, is not charge
able to the Republican party, striving,
with this pretext, to cover up the wide
and unbeatable breach which exists in
that party out in Louisiana, and to cast
all the odium upon Packard, for doing
what Grant and his henchmen gave him
the COVER to do. But we insist that as
that party gave to Grant, in the first in
stance, his authority, and have since fol-
lowed in his wake, praising everything
done by this Presidential tool with full
someness, that they must shoulder all
the consequences which ensue, and not
attempt to charge the blame where it
does not properly lie.

WHY not Confer?

The Barnwell Sentinel mentions ap-
a proposed conference of gen.
tlemen assembled at Columbia, from the
various counties, to consult upon the po-
litical situation of the State, and inter
change their thoughts and suggestions
thereupon, representing nobody, rcspon-
sible to nobody, and binding nobody
The Charleston News objects, we think
unreasonably. Why should not any two,
three, thirty or fifty citizens meet when
and where they will, and confer upon
any or all topics, religious, moral, social
or political, shaping their conduct there
in as seemeth them best, on their respon-
sibility as citizens Or as men ? How
about the Press Conference of March,
1870, a much more formidable and i'm
portant affair than the meeting of indi-
viduals, however exalted?
For ourselves we are for conference,
and early organization, not al station, and
we hope The News will be represented at
any conference held. and will aid the
gentlemen comprising it in arriving at
that consummation so devoutly wished
for by all true-hearted Carolinians, the
Nevs included, the mode of best redeem
ing the State and securing unity of efcrt
to that end.

CHARLESTON, S. c., August, 19 1871

CHARLESTON, >. u, August, l9 1911
Dear Journal: Though so much has been
said generally about our "late elections" and
their success, yet we would like to have our
own special chat with you before the subject
is dropped altogether and the more so as we
would like to give little honor where it is
DUE Very few men realized the extent to
which the struggle would reach, before it
had got well under way, but the first day of
registration revealed to them suspicion of
what it was going to be, and there began
that most exciting interest which for one
whole week stirred up every man old and
young to take an active part in the work.
Men, who up to that time had proposed to
have no interest in the election became con-
stant watchers at the polls, young men turned
out leaving their business and consenting to
be under the guardance ofsome trustworthy
and cool headed man, in order that they
might be guardians of the peace, and not
incediary matter to cause the two infamable
elements to take fre.-And much is due to
the prudence and caution of these same young
men. Their were of course many hot headed
ones among them, but each man came there
with his mind imbued with the idea that he
was to use every effort to prevent row, and
therefore every man watched his neighbor,
and if he saw him in the way of danger, that
inclined to let his temper get the better Of
his discretion, he was quick to lead him away
from the object of annoyance and so perhaps
save many lives. Each individual acted
upon this principle, the wisdom Of which is
proved by the result for it is note worthy
that though the feeling Of both parties
(black and white) were wrought up to the
highest pitch of excitement, yet no one was
hurt and the only life lost was taken by
United States soldier, as is generally believed.
No one who was on the ground and saw
the threatening appearance of things gen.
orally can hesitate to give honor to these
young men who stood there ready to imperil
their lives if need be, but determined that
that need should be very urgent which
WOULD lead them to apply the force which
they held there in the interests of peace and
justice.
But the benefits of this calmness will not
cease with the success of the election. The
black mansbegan to realize on that day that
his former master felt too kindly toYards
him to make an issue of blood with him.
His eyes have been opened and truth be-
gins to dawn upon him, the truth which
will burst upon him like a1full food oflight
as the sun bursts forth from cloud upon
an April day, brighter by contrast, when
the Wagner party demonstrate by their
action that they will rule not for the benefit
of the white man only, nor like Pillsbury
poor "old man." for the black man only,
but equally in the interests of both.
In Charleston he will learn that his
former master whom he trusts with his
money and even his life, is also his best !
