Scott and Parker,s Record.

The Charleston Republican, in a
moral lecture to Rev. R. Il. Cain, the
independent colored Editor Of the
Missionary Record, Of that city, in
consequence of his advocacy Of hon;
est officials to control the State Gov
ernment, says.
And now, one thing more, and we
are done.
What is the record of R. K Scott
and Niles 6. Parker, from 1861 to:
1855? We will answer that briefly ::
They helped to abolish slavery and
to make liberty universal. :
Taey helped to declare the Union
+indissoluble-helped 10 declare thot
fact By force Of armas-and thereby
substitute citizenship for slavery.
They helped to subdue the REBEL.
ion and establish the national supre-
macy.
They helpedto emancipate labor,
re-establish the NATIONAL unity, and
give peace and security to forty mill
ion citizens"
What glorious record But, Mr..
Republican, why stop at 1855 ? Why
dor y,u complete therecord cup to
date ?"
These precious pets of yours have
been helping ever since 1865.
They helped to increase the debt
of the State, at least $l5,000,000 in
three years.
They helped to fraudulentiy issue
millions of State bonds.
They helped to pass an act making
these fraudlently issued bonds valid,
and compelling the people to pay
them. 3,
They helped to swindle the State
out of nearly a million of dollars
through the "Land Commission
They helped to give $I,S00.O0o
out.of the Treasury to the Blue Ridge
Railroad.
They Helped to increase the taxes
Of the State tenfold.
They have helped to close up the
Free Schools.
They have helped to deprive the
inmates Of the Lunatic Asylum of the
necessary wants and comforts OF life,
and close up the institution.
They helped to corrupt the Legis-
lature. And finally,
They have helpedthemselues to most
of the money that came into the State
Treasury, whereby the honor and
credit of the State are, gone, and
draft upon the Treasury for $50 is
not worth more than 500. Men with
such record deserve the highest po-
sition in Gen. Stolbrand's depart
ment.-Union Times.

SPIES AND INFoRMERs.-One of
the curses inflicted by Radicalism
upon our country is The great army
Of low black-guards, detectives, still
house spies, whiskey-smellers. sneak
ing informers, SC. Daniel Webster
once e said that We must look above
the law and beyond the law to the
prevalence of well-principled and
enlightened public sentiment" Laws
can only be enforced when they are
in accord with public sentiment;
Hence they must be wise, just and
impartial, to meet the support of the
people. The test oath prostituted
the Isacredness of the oath and led to
Unreasonable perjury. The unjust
tax upon the industry Of the country
has led to blockade running and eva
sions of the revenue laws So spies
are stuck about in every neighbor-
hood to watch and report those who
are trying.to dodge the unjust laws;
Then there is another set of spies 'ot
a higher degree to watch the spies OF
a lower degree. Then a third set
called supervisors, to watch the second
set, and SO on and so on. :;
All this scum is born Of Radical
ism. In the better days of the Re-
public, a detective was an unknown
monster. A spy would have been
looked upon with absolute horror.
The Bible denounces the whole dirty
class of informers Thcu shalt not
go up and down as a tale-be
among thy people" A system di-
rectly opposed to the Bible must be
all wrong, and this system has been
forced upon the country by Radical
corruption and villainy.-southern

g Rejoicss in the Bitter Punish
ments of his Neighb0rs.'''r

The Georgetown Times, paying its
compliments to James L. Orr-once
love and honored, but now loathed
and detested by all good people
makes the annexed severe but truth
full charges against this truculent and
tyrant- worshipping son Of South
Carolina. The Times says: -::sar
:. We will not publish his speech at
Philadelphia, because we think it
will not do him any credit, and that
he will after q while he ashamed of
it. His pretended joyations and re.
ioicings over the incarc srations and
punishments of men whose fathers
were his chief supporters and friends.
in lifting him to honors not often at-5
tained by men Of. his age, speak not
well for the goodness of his heart. It
may be that Judge Orr possesses that
Roman frmness and patriotism which
would induce him to order his own
son to a disgraceful death. But we
hardly think so. We think he went
out.of the way to laud the worst acts
Of tyranny and oppression that the
,present century has witnessed, by eX-
Polling the Ku Klux laws, and prais-
ing Gen. Grant for his clemency in
locking in bastiles those who were
his first friends and his present neigh
bors. No one knows better than
Judge Orr that in all these cases the
juries, both Grand and Petit, were
packed not to try but to convict; and
he also knows, that out Of more than
FIVE hundred cases submitted to the
Grand. Jury, the unprecedented and
hitherto unheard result was, that
true bills were found against each
and every one Of them. And yet
with these facts before him, he ma
ligns the State, rejoices in the bitter
punishments Of his neighbors, and in
loud sounding terms praises the des-
potic hand that puts upon them a.
deep and humiliating degradation.
