TIE STEAMER HATTIE sCUTTIED BY BROOKs's MEN
ARRIVAL OF RE-ENFORCEalENTs- MEMBERS OF
TIE LEGISLATURE APPEAL TO THE PRESIDENT
Port Royal commercial and Beaufort County Republican. [volume] (Port Royal, S.C.) 1873-1874, 1874-04-02
Why rot Gbliterate.

Both the president Of the. senate and
speaker Of the house congratulate the
members on the fact that the genera! as
semb!y reduced the debt Of the state.
AS the reduction was the simple pro.
cess of reputation, We cannot see why
the assembly should not have been re
buked for leaving any debt at al!.-Why
not sponge it all out? Why should the
party be obliged to sec the proceeds OF
that two mills for interest collected, when
it might just as well nave been dedicated
to pay the certificate grab? Or did you
try on this to see ifit would suit the con-
servatives, before proceeding to "rc-
duce" the whole bonded debt away? You
need not have taken two bitUS ut the
cherry. The conservatives have shown
at least in this matter, as little regard FOX
the honor and crrdt OF the state as any
radical of them all.
Port Royal commercial and Beaufort County Republican. [volume] (Port Royal, S.C.) 1873-1874, 1874-04-02

those elected 10 take care of their inter-
ests. They toll and sweat in the streets,
in the fields, at the forge, and in the
home of the well.to-do. They are hew.
ers of wood and drawers of water, and
nearly every dollar they earn. by hard
work, is paid IL tisln 10y those who own
the property-their poiitica! antagonists.
Out OF their wages, in one way or anoth-
er, they pay nine tenths Of the taxes.
These taxcs-the blood money Of the
State-is gathered up and paid into the
state treasury, aud there it comes Under
the couyrol Of the public officers whom
they have trusted.
Every dollar of that money is sacred.
/, l. part OF the life and labor OF the
poor RepuSlicanS; it is part OF their
aux!cly and hardship; il is 4 part Of their
bread an! iacat; q tribase to the State
out OF the mouths OF their wives and
children. Why are our colored people
6tili so poor, walking about in rags, liv'
ing in smal! cabins that scarcely cover
them from the rain, and unable to buy
themselves a home. Why is this
Because of the enormous amount o.
money drawn out OF them every year.
How is it that there is such a difference
between the same two men in one year
if you put one of them in the Legislature
and leave one Of them at home? The
man in the Legislature only gets sia
hundred dollars, and more than half O.
this he bas to pay. for board and Other
expenses, even if he is of sober, tie per
ate habits. How, then, can he, doing
nothing else, afford to sport gold watcf
and chain, worth a couple OF hundred
dollars, magnificent diamond pin
worth probably u thousand dollars, finC
carriage and pair Of horses, worth two
thousand dollars. and, besides that, give
fine suppers and receptions, and hanc
out any quantity of wine and cigars? l.
makes no difference whether the man il
black, white or yellow, or whether he bt
Democrat or Republican, the question is
where does the money come from, anC
how does he get il? 1t comes from thu
people, and he gets it out of the public
treasury. Now, this thing cannot last
The people cannot be deceived all tht
time, year in and year out. We are no
the slaves of any set of men. Slavery il
dead, and il the people are not able tC
see all these things, there are some o
them whoare.

The graphic description in the n. Y.
Herald of the Congregational council in
Brooklyn, n. Y, isa 'forcihle reminder
of the risk often encountered hy well
meant rneddling into ether peoples bnsi-
ness
Theodore Tilton the we'll known writer
was i've years ago, member of Ply
mouth church, Brooklyn, and is still or
was lately, n pew holder there. Las
year he was accused before the chGgch
of publicly slandering Rev. Henry Ward
Bee,her, his pastor. He replied thar no
was not amcnable to the discipline of The
church, having Withdrawn from it in!or
malIy and privately four years ago. Rev.
Mr. Beecher alSo stated that all cause Of
offence between Mr. Tiiton and h msed
had been explained and settled, and
, thercupcn the ma:ter>was dropped so far
as Plymouth church WAS concerned.
Bet here two Congfcgat ona chuyche',
presided over by Drs. Storrs and Bud
dington stepped in and arranged Ply
mouth church for allowing Mr.. Tiltan to
drop his church membership of his own
volilion and without the expressed con-
sent Of the church, claiming that this was
contrary to all usage, and subseryicnt of
true church discipline. Plymouth church
replied, in very able paper, denying
the right of the other churches to inter
fer, in thu nanag me ofther own af-
fairs.
Bat there was ga woman in the case"
Of the alledged SANDER and ;he Reverend
Doctors Storrs and Buddington would
not Willingly let slip the opportunity Of cx-
posing the fiailties of MIR. Beecher, whose
proximity to their churches dwaried them
into comparative iusign:fcance. So they
proposed 70 Plymouth Church to cali a
mutual council Of Congregational church
cs to hear and decide upon the matters
in controversy between their respective
churches. Plymouth church ccntemptu.
ousiy replied that they had no matter in
CO oyersy witEthc other congregat
churches, desired none, and refused to
have anything 10 10 with council.
Wheyeupon D:s. Storrs and Buddington
ana their chu.cIea have called al ex-paf.
to advisory council of no less than eighty
churches 20 consider the hcrcsy Of Ply
mouth or rather to put down its indepcn-
dent Pastor.
The council is now in session in Clinton
.tv, Clu ii Broo. y. They courteous
ly invited Plymouth Church to appear
before them which they, as courtcously
declined having anything TO DO with them
So f,r as tie proceedings Of the council
have reached us a majority of the body
appear disposed to sustain the po ion OF
Plymouth Church 10 the discontinue OF
the Reverend Busy bodies, whose real
desire to strike blow at Mr. Beccher is
! too thiuly veilel beneath their apparcu;
zcal 10 the cause Of Congregational liz.

We quote from the New York Tribmac:

We quote from the New York Tribune:
The dcplorable condition to which the
corrupt RUE uf the ignorant negro majOri-
ty hus brought South C..roina Is striking
" shown 10y the fact that large decga-
ton of the leading citizens Of the State,
including men who were governors anu
United States senators before the war,
and who used to hold to the cxtrcmc
Calhoun theories of State rights, are now
in Washington, besceching Congress and
the Prc.ilcmt to intervene and overthrow
their State government. Political th"o-
ries are OF no importance to men who arc
plandered, under the name of taxes, by
a government that il no better than an
organized system of wholesale robbery.
