Tho Duty of tho Hour.

Mn. EDITOR: Are the mon of South
Carolina going to allow tho election for
Governor to go by default, on next
Wednesday, Will it be said OF them on
Thursday. that as the owners of the soil,
they were so derelict in their duty to
themselves and their families as to allow
the most corrupt set OF mon that ever
existed to be fastened on to the vitals of
the GRAND OLD STATE for two and four
yours longer? Let them wnke up from
their long, deep sleep, and rally for the
honor and safety of the land Of their
fathers, whose blood purchased the soil
for them. Do not allow it to pass into
the hands of vandsls, who, even s.if to
the manner born, are not to be trusted
with the smallest interests of humanity.
Will they allow it to be said next week,
that Franklin j. Moses, Jr., with his
pirate crew, IS to take command of tho
good ship South Carolina on this her
most pefilous voyage? With one cap
tain and crew nbout to be dismissed for
almost wrecking their ship, can it be
possible that they will allow captain to
take command who would turn the decks
OF their vessel into retreat for villains
OF the worst and most degraded class?
With flag flying that would mean
honor aud safety, the pirate would creep
up on to the unsuspecting merchantman,
pull down his ensign aud run up flag
without ray of color in 1.-THE emblem
of death, death to all honesty, and sue
cess to thieves.
South Carolnians, this must not be.

DO not stay at home on Wednesday, aud

TRIBUhAr1oNs OF AN IMm1aRAr1os
AaENT.-The Wilmington IN. OF Jour.
ma! reports that white man by the
name OF Charles Koch, German, ar
rived in that city on Monday afternoon,
from Washington city, he having, ac-
cordiug to his own statement, walked
all the way between Washington and
this city. He bears with him com mis-
aion as immigration agent for the State
OF Florida, signed by Harrison Reed,
Governor Of that State. and attested by
Jonathan @. Gibbs. Secretary of State.
This document bears date February FL,
1871. and has affixed to it the great seal
OF the State of Florida. It seems that
Koch has been North for the purpose of
occurring immigrants for his State, at
the very low rate OF So per head. In
this he says that he has been quite auc-
cessful, and that some 2, 1000 persons had
agreed to go South with him, but that,
when he drew on the Treasurer for the
money, his drafts were returned to him.
He now presents sorry plight, and is
endeavoring to make his way back to
Florida. where he hopes to be righted.
