The Philadelphia Times, in an article
on the treaty of peace between Russia
and Turkey, says: Russian genei ais
and statesman may be only diplomatic,
but they have the consciousness of a
great moral spirit upholding them, and
they have gone on with the negotiations
with little apparent regard for foreign
opposition. And yet, in truth, these ne
gOtiatiOns have been most prudently d.
the terms of peace which comes to us by

attack, and leave Russia apparently Sc

THE Charleston Is. CO. News says
under the new apportionment in that
state the Democrats can certainly carry
the First, Third and Fourth districts,
may hope to carry the Fifth by phenom-
email voting, and cannot carry the
Charleston district by anything less than
a political miracle. They know III about
phenomenal voting, and political mir
acle' is merely case in which a Repub-
lican majority of from 10000 to 10000 is
wiped out by bulldozing.

TURKEY grants the fire edom of the Bos

fl She pays $25O,OOO, 900 in cash and
SY0O0,00O i'll territory. She loses con-
q oil over Servia, Montenegro and Bull
gsria; the latter paying a tribute to Tur-
key to be fixed by Russian, Turkish and
Bulgarian commissioners. Four for
tressed towns in Asa-BatOum, Arabian
Kars and Bayazld-are coded to Russia.
Russia has possession in fact of the Black
Sea once more. These are the principal
terms Of the peace concluded between
Russia and Turkey, and the Russian
troops are TO remain i'm the vicinity of
ConstantinOple as long as the British
fleet remains in the Sea of Marmora. Tur-
key is now but little less than a Russian
dependency, and Europe may as we'll
look the fact in the face.

The Methodist Almanac for 1873 fur

Tho Stunt or Election.

We clip from the True .Ss"thron the
following paragraph concerning the re-
cent election in Sumter county. The
sentiments therein expressed will be en-
dorsed By gaod ciizeus generally:
The commits .ioners Of election have de-
clsred the recent election for member OF
the Legislature in favor Of John Il. John
son. Under tho circumstances, they could
no, DO otherWise. and by pursuing TINS
proper course, they harc prevented trou.

10 the world that the Democratic ra:'y
proposes TO recognize the rights of every
man . that il discounienances the recent

soeyer done. and will not seek 10 put ITS
candidates into ofice by other than iair

A FeiEt.

Within the last six or eight months
Radical leaders throughout the State
have not let pass an opportunity to e1
press the opinion that their party Is deal
for ali time in South Carolina. Even
the smaller politicians in the counties
have been earnest in their efforts to
make Democrats believe that they have
pertect faith in the wisdom and justice
of Hampton's policy, and that the gov
ernmcnt will remain for an indefinite
period under the control of the Democ'
racy. So carefal have they been to
create this impression upon the mnaS
of the unwary, that, in the light OF re-
cent events in Sumter and Eeau'or',
the question arises: what dofs 1t al
mean? Is it not fcint, and are mol
our enemies, while seeking to !ull US
into a feeling of perfect security, quiet
IL preparing for desperate effort tc
regain possession of the State next fall
Such is by no means an improbable in
teruretation Of their conduct. At any
rate the Democrats have nothing tt
lose by keeping on the alert. We
fear the Greeks, even though they come
to us with gifts"

The Cost Of Emigrating.

As illustrating the cost that cn''
gratis encounter in the matter OF trans
portation alone, we quote the following
from the Charlotte OJSerrer:
Recently man came TO tins city
from station on one of the railroad
lines, with his wife and fourteen chill
dren, for the purpose Of here buying
emisrant tickets for hims'lf and family
and moving to the State of Tennessee.
IIo visited the depot where he expected
to buy his tickets. and fuding that it
would take just S52S to gat the family
to Memphis, abandoned the scheme IN
disgust, returned to the hotel and
boarded the next train for his Old
home

L1BERIA.-Oue day last week, about
n hundred colored persons embracing
men, women and children, from Ian
caster county, passed through Camde"
on their way to Charleston, where they
said ship was waiting TO take them to
Liberia. The colored people of Cam
den. with few exceptions. regarded them
a, deluded beings, and the victims Of
sharpers, and they were advised to re-
turn TO their homes. But they, SEEM
ing determined not to look back, took
the train for Charleston, where they
arrived in due tune, but to find that
there was no vessel for them. The ar
t;cle from the Ncus and Courier, which
we publish elsewhere, gives an account
of their arrival, together with that ol
other bodies Of emigranis from differ.
ent parts Of the country. The Ne'e'
and Courier also tells how these poor
people have been dipped and flceced
and in that connection remarks edito'
rally:
Whipping is abolished as a Tuoish
ment for crime in Sorth Carolina, but
if the deluded color,d people from G"or-
cia and South Carolina, were to visor-
ously apply forty lashes save on", to the
fat backs of the sharpcrs who swindlcd
:hem, the public would not condemn
them very severely
