We would rejoice TO sec the day
when any man, who felt so disposed,
could put his name before the people
for their suifragos, but this cannot be
the case where two great parties, as
anlagonistic in their aims az the
Democratic and Radical, are striving
for the mastery. More especially is
this true when the stronger has re-
core! Of accnrsed perjury, corruption
and crime, and the weaker Of events
as noble and honorable as ever made

Surely, therefore, our people will
not allow petty differences, founded
upon personal hatred, prejudiccs or
imaginary Inconsistencies, to divide
the party and thus aid our enemies to

Will fail and the state, with her cti-
Icns. their rights and property, will
be again turned over into the hands
Of Radicals, who know bottcr how to
steal than to govern, and will deal
out justice to our citizens in proper :
tion to the number of dollars they
pay for it.
We take ii that there are enough
Radicals in every county, who, by
uniting with the disalFected Demo
crats, can elect their ticket, anl pre-.
DICT that the, will do it, if this abno-
NAL condition continues. The few
Democrats elected on the Radical
ticket, will not long continue their
adherence to their old principles, but,
by force Of attraction from Il greater
body, will be merged into the R,dical
party g: hc absorbed by it. This our
enemies know, and, if they can breed
contention and dissatisfaction in our
ranks, will do it with no other aim
than to absorb their Democratic
allies and thus control the State. If
such thing be at all probable (and
no one can doubt i) how unwise is it
for any portion Of our party to allow
petty differences to drive them to a
course Of conduct which will cert ain.
~ destroy Democratic power and
defeat the ends Of good government
in South Carolina. The mere fact of
man, thus elected, being Demo

approbrum which will inevitably at
