PLAIN TALK.

BEN F. PERRY of Greenyille, S. c., who
was appointed provisional governor of
South Carolina by ANDREW JOHNSON, has
just written letter, which we find in the
Greenville Nc,os. 1t exhibits the real
spirit of the southern democrats, and its
words are translated into such bloody deeds
as those which have made Hamburg and
Ellenton words of horror to the republicans
of South Carolina. The vcnomous old
viper thus hounds his followers on TO mur-
der and outrage:
Every true democrat and every honorable
man should rise up in the majesty Of his
stu ength and swear on the altar of his coun-
try and his God that this Republican success
shall not be, let the consequences be what they
may. The poor, miserable, unprinCipled
white man who tries to restore the radical
party TO power in South Carolina should be
socially ostracised and not even spoken to on
the streets. lie should be treated as an
enemy to his race "hGStis htunani Cenetl8 I"
The colored man should be told that his lead
ers are making tools of him ouly to crafty
their pitiable ambition and have a chance Of
stealing his hard earnings. He should be told
too, that if he will vote to place rogues and
scoundrels in Office aud power no honorable
democrat will employ him in any way. This
should be resolved on and adhered to through
out the state-social ostracism for the white
man and no employment for the colored man.
In the same paper from which we cut
the above appears q few remarks TO the
greenbNckers, who, it appears, are inclined
to dispute for some local offices with the
democrats:
| Yet white men-South Carollnans-join in
| TO bring these consequence upon us. The
mon who compose the greeuback wing of rad.
icalsm are deliberately planning the murder
of the state and the everlasting ruin of her
people. Scorn for the miserable associations
upon which they have entered, and bitter
hatred for the wrong they plot against us, are
the feelings with which all respectable citi.
zons must regard these miserable creatures.
Let them never be forgotten Let the un-
disturbed peace that will ensue from their de-
feat not move US to Charitably condonng their
| fault Lack of success In execution does not
lessen the guilt of careful y-desgned crime
The men who aid rsdicalism now should be
banded down for tho execration Of generations
| TO come.

TIE republicans assume the democratic
party is or will be controlled by the south aud
in southern interests. No attempt of this
kind has been made since the war, aud to the
only one before the war, in the disastrous
Charleston convention, and the bolt Of the
southern leaders, the republican party owes
its success in 1860. There is no danger of its
repetition -PttsJWyg Post.
Our cotemporary has not very good
memory, otherwise it would not forget that
during the extra session of congress which
has cost the democratic party so much the
south controlled and directed all the
obnoxious legislation which has created so
much alarm. 1t is not the number OF
democratic voters at the north, which exceed
by more than q million those of the south,
that control the action of that party when
in power, but the active energy of the
brigadiers when they como to the front,
The northern democrats are mere putty in
the hands of The south, to be shapeda as they
will 1t was so before the war and has been
so since the rebellion, and will be so again.
no matter how high the Post may pile its
pyramid Of figures to show 20 the con-
trary. 1t requires q large degree of assur-
ance to make the assertion even that the
democratic party is not controlled by the
south. 1t is as subservient a3 the tail is to
the will of the dog.

POLITICAL NOTES.

NEARLY every democratic county In Ohio
has beon robbed by its treasurer, and yet that
party is so honest, you know. 1t never steals
anything it can't get its hands on, of course.
THE Buffalo Express says Senator Conkling
is reported by Secretary Dorsey of the national
committee as saying, We shall carry New
York by from 10000 to 50,oOo Senator Conlz.
ling mover makes empty boasts.
If the democratic party ever thought that
Jefferson Davis was during, or before, or since
the rebellion guilty Of anythi ne wrong in his
course it has never had the courage to say so.
For that matter, it has never even rebuked
the rebellion to overt urn the government. Is
1t afraid of givi ng offense2 and to whom2
The Boston Globe has an article on tho
E" Roarer Bolus" which is no more or less than
fanciful and funny account of how Butler,
who owns the Globe is going to force himself
down tho throats and into the very vitals of
the democratic party. Look out for a bad
case of CONSERVATION in the bowels" next No
vember.
THE democratic clubs in Edgefold Barn
well, Hampton and other coun ties of South
Carolina have adopted resolutions that no man
WHO NOJeb Jue TcpuOllChn biCRet Will De given
employment Of any kind. White men who
give employment to the colored republicans
are ostracisod and threatened with severe PEN
alties. In consequence of these resolutions
and threats o large number of colored families
are In very-itiable condition. Some of them
are said to be actually in want of food. And
yet the democrats talk about free ballot but
they also pirate about their loyalty and patriot
ism.

THERE is but one chance, one hope, for
the democraticparty to lay itsignoble hand
upon this government, and that is by
fraud-and they know it, and hence their
recklessness in perpetrating frauds through
which to secure their ends.
National Republican., 1880-09-01

THE democratic journals complain that
the treasury reports and statistics are made
up in the interests of the republicans. This
is singular; for at the same time their ora
tors complain that the crops are made up to
perform similar duty.

welfare. 1t is as much the business of tho
democratic party to make advantage by
frauds at the ballot.box as It is forthe gam
bier to fleece an adversary by stocking the
cards on him. These methods are akin,
and they alike attach to the democratic
party In this contest.

The democrats of Kansas have nomi-
mated a Miss SARAH L. BROWN of Douglass
county for uperntendento of public instruc-
ton. SARAH had some opposition, because
it was known that she is in favor of the
prohibition amendment to the constitution,
but ex-senator Ross vouched for her being
tooth and nail for HANCOCK" and that
settled it.

GENERAL BUTLER says that of his 5000
soldiers, not 500 ever voted the republican
ticket. If this be true, the margin for gain
of soldier votes for HANCOCK must be very
small The democratic papers have already
reported a larger per cent of gain than
this so there must be lying somewhere on
the matter

The Edinburgh ReUiep contains an article on
tho spread Of mohammedanism in China,
which Is very suggestive. In recent issue
we alluded slightly to the adva nee Of moham'
medism in Africa all the dense populations of
which country appear to be rapidly yielding
to religion which brings along with IL
marked civilizlng influences 1t seems that
very similar change is taking place in China,
whore the descendants of Arabian immigrants
who have always retained their religion are
reaching out more and moro boldly, and strik.
Ing their roots deeper continually. They ore
enthusiastic proseytizers, and they are spread.
ing islamlsm abroad through China, and it ap.
pears TO find much favor because of its super
ior defnitenoss and energy. The growth of
islamism In China, in short, is an event which
1t has become necessary to recognize and to take
into consideration, for IL is at once evident
that 1t may have the most important conse.
quences. 1t is quito within the bounds of
possibility that islamism may conquer the
whole of China before another century has
passed, and should that happen It is evident
that the restless prosolytizing spirit which Is
bringing about this change would look abroad
for further fields of employment Suppose the
four hundred millions of China all converted
to mohammedanism; tho swarming races of
Africa ranged under the samo religious stand
ard the recrudesc enco Of Arabian energy
coinciding with these changes; what is to pre-.
vent, or what could hinder, descent upon
both America and Europe such as tho ancient
history of civilization records as pouring forth
from the cradle of the race in Central Asia

bilities, and thiscloud of mohammedansm i'm.

Mr.. MERRIcK, the eminent lawyer, has
returned from Maine and reports fusion
perfect, and says there will be no gains

he is right. Last year the democratic can

might hold their own in presidential year.

The Philadelphia Times, in speaking of
the republican meeting which was ad-
dressed by EMoRYsToRRs, on Monday night
says that, although there was no special
effort made by bands or parades to gather
a crowd, the people assembled in front of

fiji it several times over. The republicans

CHAIRMAN BARNUM is so delighted with

he has telegraphed TO BEN asking him to
repeat it at the great HANCOCK mass-meet-

time BEN addressed democratic mass
meeting in New York was in the days of
the anti-draft riots in 1863. lie was howled
at and rotten.egged by the fierce democ.
" racie," fresh from killing negroes and
burning colored orphan asylums. Should
he address the HANCOCK meeting next

thousands-all unchanged in their instincts,

THE Nation thinks WADE HAMPTON
should be allowed to decide what he meant
by his remarks concerning JACKSON and

trouble is to give an explanation. If he
says be didn't mean to stir mp the feelings
ofhi9 hearers by appealing 10 tho memory
of the lost cause" his speech was empty
wind-nothing in it; and, if he says the
contrary, that is all that is charged against
him.

CONCEAL il as you may, there is one
thing that cannot be truthfully denied
the 13s electoral votes that the south claims
for HANCOCK will be secured, if at all, by
the rankest fraud. No honest election,
with free ballot and fair count" will
give to HANCOCK thirty votes in the late
confederate states. This the democrats
know, and they know too that they do not
propose to give the republican party the
slightest chance for fair election aud an
honest count where it can be prevented.
