Ah that astute man nnd ?I oh rfpi^ebehir, Henry Fpnrnick Esq., of the 'AllW^-' i'ribtine, says : "If as wo apprehend r?4nr from ^jlC Fpjrj( n]jj{C 0f tho oposition Press, '^'""iVnd" Of Hie associations?be they enlled what they may?which are daily springing into bring all over Fouth Carolina, tliero should vifTn jo Tai n:- ?? ^^^^be^^evolvcd any attempt on the part of those fc<j ^^K|yr .represent to control the coming clcc w ,.^ipro, by any other agency than tbo legiti ' . na|o ;ono, yf rnoral persuaeion, a condition ef publio apprehension, similar to that which prevails in Louisiana, would obtain her*, and the burtberp of the responsibility for it would bo placed, as in that case, by the Intelligent men ef the North, open tho shoulders of those who engender it by the sauio instrumentalities. The result would simply be the instant and utter alienation of tho sympathy ^>f the North from those who would resort to such measures for the cor rection of evils, the existence of which is not denied by the party in power." Wc trust the. Opposition will bear this in mind. They arc in a helpless minority so long ns they stand factiously arrayed ngainst the Republican parly, and, whilst occupying that attitude, can have no possible hope of bettering the condit ion of public affairs ex cept with the co operation of their friends from abroad. That can never bo secured nor sustained by any resort to violence, nor by the adoption of any plan involving the infringement of the political privileges of any class of citi/ens. It is to this view of the matter that we direct their attention not to point out a way for thcra to succeed in disintegrating our party, but to caution them against arousing n popular feeling thnt could not fail to be detrimental in its consequences to the good of the Stalo. There is no room fer misunderstanding the sentiment of tho North on this subject, nor is thnt sentiment interpreted, alono by the journals to which we refer. It is a part of tho National freed, and it may not be either violated or ignored without, bringing down on its infructors the. National indignation and rebuke. For the public welfare, and for the snkc of peace, the gentlemen who stand outside of our political household should view these considerations with the gravity they deserve It is more thr.n criminal for such of them aB are in the lead, by virtua of their supe rior intelligence, to foster any organization having for its ohjcot other than illegitimate control of the popular vote. It will be worse llinil madness for the rank and file of their parly to follow their bidding if they do. Far better will it bo for them and their cause to hinge the accomplishment of their purposes.upon the sympathies of the country, instead of depending them on the passions nnd prejudices of a constituency that may rend Ihcm in pieces if the}' fail of succcsn. What we have f aid has been given as a warning to those whoso circumstances in our County will not admit oftheir following the dictation of old fogy leaders, to their utter ruin and dismay, nnd as a public journnlist, what we conceive to bo our duty in enlightening those with whom our past associations have been very pleasv.it, and who arc now more prosperous, even under corrupt Radical ru'c as tbey term it, than they ever were before. There are thoso in our Stale who nrc willing to morrow to raise the flng of rebellion, who.se motto is "Rule or Ruin"?and there arc others of the opposition who nre willing to enter any "ring," to plunder *hc popple of this State. As tho Boston Advertiser s.iys "the o.iuso of thoir complaining was (is) not that corrupt men were (nrc) in power, but that thoy did not share in the profits of corruption." The Free Citizen. We have received a cop}* of the first issue of the above named journal, published in our Town by Dr. A. Webster and cditol by his son, Professor F.. A. Webster. It is a neatly gotten up Hi column sheet, aud in politics is Republican nnd in for a thorough reform of the Republican parly in this State. This makes the third paper published in our go ahead little town, v?ith the promise from Dr. Webster of another (Religious) in a few weeks. Wc wish the Freo Citizen a glorious career, financially and otherwise. The editor, Professor Webster is a ready writer, nnd a gentleman of eminent ability and wot lb. Wo quota from his salutatory : Our influence shnll be given to make our beloved State a welcome home to th?*stran ger who may coino to us to cultivate our 1111 I inproved lnnds and add to our moans for agricultural and commercial prosperity. The stranger has rights which wc are bound to respect, nnd he should find safety and protec lion especially anywhere in his native land, and under the sheltering folds of I he national banner he has fought to protect. No section of the Country presents a more inviting field for the stranger than Ihis, nnd his reception should be ns bland and cordinl ns the sunbeam that greets him wil h u warm caress, and the generous soil that responds with such impartial liberality to tho hand of cultivation. Wc do not stnrtthio enterprise in opp o sition to any other paper now published, but in its issues we arc using the material and aiding to consummate apian which was inaugurated years ago in tho publication of one of tho first republican papers of the Rtato. Wo oxpeot to find a field of useful noss which has hitherto remained unoccu pied, and hopo to contribute to somo extent to tho advancement of those interests dear to the hearts of all (huso who lovo God nnd their country.

No Injun?No Ducks. We once heard a Btory thuB : Out West near a frontier fort, built on the edgo of a fitroam that flowed through a prairie, lived an old Tndiau. Ono af ternoon he came rushing into the fort for a gun to shoot some ducks that had just lauded on the opposite Bido of the stream. Tho boys, to have some fun, got hold of an old Spanish muskot, * and loaded her nearly to tho mussel aud handed her tc tho Indian who started for the ducks. They followod on bc hiud to sec what would happen. Di rcctly they heard a terrible explosion, and thinking that the gun had hurtled into a thousand pieces and killed the old man, they broke for tho scene of the disaster. When in sight thoy saw the Indian crawling out of the prairie grass with his arms full of dead ducks, and a great gash on his check, with the blood flowing thereform. On being approach ed by ?tf^'boys" he bioke out with the exclamation?Wagh ! me shoot big gun gen, soon be no Injun?no ducks. The Mosaic address delivered Thurs day last in our County Convention teaches us that oven under dillerout ciocumstanccc, a like moral may attoch. Wo arc requested lo state by the Chairman and Clerk of the Hoard of County Commissioners that thoy will be happy lo furnish information concern ing the financial condition of this County, aud will do so in tho next issuo of this paper, Sold Out The Hews and Courier aunounccd some years since that it did not care "a damn for principles?it went for money," and no intelligent, impartial reader cap well doubt that it has stuck weil to its platform- The Charleston Republican repeatedly stated that; true to its plat farm, the Ncvrs offered to, and was ans ipus to sell out "to the party," for tho printing when the Mercury still lived, At the lime that memorable daspatch, '?to hell with the. veto?p^^Lj bill," is baid to ha'.t beet) WlvtrfHW^P^tay by a eood Democrat of the old lilio Whig reuuosion, the News was unblushingly advocating phesphutcs. It unscrupul ously aided in the passage of the ster ling loan, and undoubtedly "saw light" in the murky depth of that most outra gcous! swindle. Hut time and space fails us for more of these familiarly known frauds of this corrupt sheet which claimed, with some show of rea son, to bo the mouth-piece of tho oppo sition J^but always "goes for the money " All remember its advocacy of F. J. Moses. Jr., for Covernor, tWuyetrs ago, and how it was paid. All know how this sheet, which was ths official paper for this State, and the official paper of Charleston, suddenly got its teeth on edge tthen it ccastd to bo. See, to-day, when a few men are trying to expose the huge bank fraud of their own party, how reticent the News can bo "Datnu principles ?the News goes for money." lias the News sold out agaiu to Gov ernor MosesK Most likely,most likely. ? Greenville Ifejtnblicvn. When, in 1ST2, the previous record of Frank Moses was referred to as a reason why he should not be made governor, the party was assured that the.chief justice had such great influ ence over his son that he might be safe ly depended upon to keep the you g governor in straight paths. We havo been disposed to believe that tho strength of this influence was exagge rated, in view of the utter failure of the governor's administration of affairs, his gross indecency ^of life, his thorough shamelcssncss in the rescue of thieves and scoundrels from the mcslics of the law. his brazen use of the funds of tho btutc for his private purposes, his utter disregard of his plighted word, his un blushing bargain and sale of offices, aud his total disregard of the interest of the party which has elevated him for the lowest depths of social and po - cuniary ruin to its highest officials hon ors. Hut when wo see the chiof justice laying aside tho dignity of his position, running over tho stato to secure the rcnominatiou of his reprobate prodigal son; iu consultation with the enemies of the republican party as to the best way to kill oil tho effort to reform Moses out of power; inventing excuses, en treat in < horc, bargaining and huckstering there, there, and boldly defending the often scs ol this political debaucho, wo havo becu forced to the conclusion that ? "liko father, like son" is- a proverb which finds its truth exemplified in pouth Caroliua as iu every part of the jvorld. ? L'ntun - Herald.
