Tho Remains OF the Liberty Pole.


Mr.. EDITOR: Yesterday morning, as
the workmen we're engaged in remov-
ing the roots of the old palmetto tree,
tcorner of Richardson aud Washing

ing the foundation of the handsome
building about being erected by the
Southern Life Insurance Company,
they came upon the stump of tue
liberty pole. which was erected sixteen
years ago, and from which the flag was
first thrown to the breeze on the 4th of
July, 1858. Our old fireman friend.

The question which ia presented to
every man, and more especially to
every young man, in South Carolina
to-day, is whether ignorance and cor

country. There can be but one an

young man. the duty OF working for
the restoration of good government
and the installation. ultimately and as
the fruit of their tolls, of honesty and
intelligence in places of power and
trust. We shall have something more
to say on this subject. We shall call
upon the young men again. Mean

age which follows from Republican
writer:
"Does anybody suppose that such q
condition of things as exists today in
South Carolina is to last?i Such a sup
position is to igoore the history and
the character of mankind. Suppose

Fising generation who are fast taking
their places? Is not the hot blood of
the South in their veins? They have
the ardor OF youth; thoy have the sti
mulus of young ambition; they have
the pride OF ancestry; they have the
inherited valor of successive genera
tions. Have they no part to play in
the futurea We may rest assured that
no depressing circumstances of the
present are going to destroy or repress
the natural development that come es Of
race and blood. Opportunity alone is
wanting, and that, we know, is always
found by the bold and aspiring"

As our friend, Mr.. Hawkins, was so sue
cessful with his "cheap matrimony" pro-

other matter, in which we feel an interest
and perhaps he does also. Mr.. O'Brien,
one of the Representatives from Baltimore
city, in the Z. S. House of Representatives.
has introduced bill to prevent members
of the Cabinet and other officers of the gov
eminent from dressing their coachmen and
footmen in cocades and livery. We are
opposed to snobbery wherever it may be
found, and want our Delegate to introduce
a similar bill to prevent snobbish practices
on the part of the officers of this State
Now we are credibly informed, that it is
the custom at the Governors House to
furnish members of the Legislature dining
there, with their lemonade in finger bowls
and without sugar too. So snobbish il
this practice, that we understand, on re-
cent occasion, there was only one member
present at the dinner, who, knowing i,
was lemonade, drank it; all the rest vul
carly washing their fingers in the delight
full beverage. We do not know that this
matter has been correctly reported to us
but Mr.. Hawkins, being on the spot, could
doubtless find out all about it, and shape
bill to prevent its recurrence. Lemonade
and other stronger beverages should al
ways be served in tumblers, as our fathers
took it. And we like sugar in ours. These
new-fangled snobisms should be prompt
ly squelched by efficient legislation and We
call on our friend to do it.

For ye watt me to summers of old,
When the tecm'd around me with fairy
delight

to be retraced, if the country is ever to
reach specie payments again by fulfilling
its broken pledge to redeem its paper in
