The Orangeburg Democrat.

The News and Courier says: "This
is the title of new paper just issued
in Orangehurg by Mtssrs. II. G.
Sheridan and James L. Sims. 1t is
Of the strictcsL sect Of Democratic
journals, and promises to do much
for the benefit Of Orangcburg." Yes,
our mission is for the benefit Of the
honest people of this county and for
their rights we intend to battle fear
lessly. Every Democratic paper that
has been published here in the last
few years has been made the target
of the mcancst and lowest abuse that
could bc hcapcd upon them by GER
tain Radicals and their sympa,hiz-
ers. Already the storm 10 burst
ing over the head of The DEMOCRAT,
and the order has been passed down
the line that we must be crushed out.
Why ? Because we did not get the
consent of few Radicals and tllcir
plant allies to publish Demo-
cratic paper at this place. We do not
propose to be crushed out, however,
as we have an idea that the people
of this county will have great need of
MS in 1880, when the great battle for
constitutional liberty will be fought.
Let them howl. We ask no quar-
ters from thieves and expect to show
them none. We expect our support
from the honest people of the county,
in whose interest our paper is pub
lishcd.

The Cleseland (Ohio) Herald, a
Republican paper, says: "Bayard
is now The eading Democratic candi-
date for ths Presidency. Among all
the candidates who have sufficient
prominence to make themselves
available, Bayard alone has good
consistent record on the money ques
tion. AS the field looks at present,
Bayard is the strongest man the
Democrats can nominate. He is n
reputable, conservative, clean-handed
Statesman. who sticks to his princi-
piles and can show consistent record
on all public questions. He is not
magnetic,and has few warmly-attach-
ed friends but he is courteous and
honorablein his dealings with men
and has, therefore, no enemies

upon as the coming man for tht

Corbin's Spite.

1t comes with bad grace from such
q man as Ex-District Attorney Cor
bin to vent his spleen upon the few
Radicals WHO were thought worthy,
Mt the end of their shameless rule, by
the Democrats to be retained in o.
flee. Upon his signal failure to OBJ
tain the seat of United States Sena-
tor from South Carolina, it was to be
expected that the Democratic party,
from Wade Hampton down to the
humblcst member, would receive the
most bitter anltllemas This would be
Senator, and all like him, could pro-
nouncc against it; but no one
thought the few, very few, Republi-
cans, who were true to their political
faith and embodied in their own per-
son all the dignity and honesty re-
naming in their party, would ever be
the recipients Of such walls of wrath
rs this political viper has seen fit to
spew out upon Judge Willard and
other Republicans holding office un-
der Democratic au: piccs. The hlsto-
ry Of the Radical administrations in
tins State is one Of political frauds
and official perjury. as the records in
very nearly every county, will prove,
and the few who maintained their
honesty and preserved their integrity
through those years OF crime aud dis
honour, ought to he held up to the
world MS political wonders rather
than cried down as traitors. So lost,
however, have the old Radical leaders
become to every just consideration of
principle that they are ready to con-
dcmn every one Of their associates,
who dares TO hold his head up while
they arc down and skulking about.
This poisoned shaft of Corbin is but
one out of a thousand with u two
fold aim, one directly at the object
they would make q victim, the other
indirectly at the Democratic leaders
whom they hate. There are Corbins
in every county, who, by means of
the press and all possible appliances,
use every opportunity to defamc
character and destroy reputation.
These, however, are but the lingering
howls Of broken down honnds, and

The Potter committee, with that
politeness which is the distinguish
ing characteristic Of nearly all its
members, finishes up its business and
moves opt of New Orleans just as the
Teller committee is about to move in.
This action on its part is necessary
to prevent clashing. The Potter
committee might, in its explorations,
stumble}upon a copy Of the specifica-
tions of fraud furnished by Mr. Hayes

of the restraining order recently is
sued by Judge Bryan, as already
stated, has been submitted to the At
torney-General for consit Grafton and
such action as he may deem ncccssa-

General still has the subject under

view Of the matter is. that the State

Tho Crop Question.

ST. MATTHEWS, S. G., Jan, g. 1879.
Ordngebur5 Democrat:
In your issue of January 3D. I saw
that the Orangeburg Agricultural So
ciety held meeting on Saturday be-
fore Christmas, at which the policy
of planting cotton to the same extent
as heretofore, was fully discussed, and
the decision arrived at was generally
in favor of planting it only as side
crop, while the farmer should ad-
dress himself to more abundant
yield of grain and other crops of me-
ccssity to the subsistence of the fam
lily and the raising of stock. Well
now, Mr.. Editor, that is all we'll and
good. l like to hear such advice
if those who give the advice would
only practice what they preach. l
am hot writing this to strike at any
one, bat knowing it to be nice qucs-
tion, or ono very hard to solve,
wish to bring out the views Of any or
all of the farmers in the county, as
the members of the society are small
compared to the number of farmers
in the county, and perhaps all the
best farmers do not belong TO our
Society. Who will commence the
side cotton crop, and how many acres
per mule will that side crop contain.
lie who believes in it should, for the
benefit Of others, come out and let
the public know what he intends do
ing, and not only let it be known,
but do it. ] am Certain that bacon
is too cheap now for me. to raise it to
sell therefore, there is no money in
bacon for me to pay debts with.
What next, cattle, no; mules, no !;
sheep, cannot see it. Mr.. Editors,
| do not consider myself at all COM
pctcnt as 4 farmer TO give others ad.
vice, but with the labor we have
cannot see as yet what we could put
in place Of cotton to make any money
to pay debts with aud besides the
amount Of land owned by number
of farmers makes it compulsory on
them to DO what they otherwise
would not, that is, rent it out for the
renter TO stick in heavy cotton crop
to pay rent and debts.
If we had more capital and differ
ent laborers we could rear up facto-
rics of all kinds, which would cause
the labor we need to come among us,
give those who wished an opportuni-
ty to sell off all surplus lands, thereby
enabling all TO run smaller farms at
less expense, and sooner bring about

for our support; therefore l think it
the duty of each one to do what he
