CHARLESTON.
SATURDAY MORNING. SEPTEMBER 23. 18G5.
We abe constrained to look, with feeling? of no
little .solicitude, to political developments *t tho
North. It was to havo beon expected that, having
met tho sacrifices of defeat?that having aban
doned hopes of self government, accepted tho dis
ruption of our society, the ruin of our institutions,
tho loss of property it iwolvod, ?be desolation in
tho track of invading armies, and the ruptures of
our constitutions, neciwsary to the restoration of
relations with other .States?mir trials would have
ended- that it would have been allowed us to
return, with tho strength and resources yet re
maining, to tho pursuits of poaceful life; and that,
iu tho laborious restoration of our ruinod for
tunes, wo might anticipato somo compensation
for the past, in a participation in the future? of tho
Republic.
But tho developments, to which we havo referred,
rondor it doubtful whether even those anticipa
tions aro to bo realized. It has long been reason
ably cortain that tho people of the North havo
been under the influence of two very distinct pur
: posos in the prosecution of tho war. A very largo
nunibor of that peoplo wore unwilling to permit a
. dissolution of tho Union. Thpy feardd the loss of
interest that dissolution would involve. They wcro
aver so to tho rivalry and contact of another and
" *porhaps an adversary power. Thoy; feared that dis
integration, onco commenced, might he continued,
and that tho Republic would bo broken into still
other fragments; and, foaring this, they resisted
dissolution, but resisted dissolution merely, and
truly fought for tho restoration of the Union.
But another portion of that people had no such
purpose. By force of numbers thoy had seized
tho government. They found it a convenient in
- n trament. They could not seo, or were unwilling
I to perceive, a limit to its power. Beyond tho palo
Of party, all was plunder. Tho South, isolated by
'tor institution, was tho most obviouB and attrac
tive object. Thoy also wore unwilling to permit a
dissolution of the Union. It would bo too much to
'.flsy, perhaps, that they disliked tho action of tho
South. That put in peril, it is true, tho power
and plunder they saw within their grasp; but it
left them in more full possession of tho North. It
gave them occasion to invoke an enormous mili
tary fore?. It gave thorn an excuso to overstep
all constitutional restrictions on their powor.
And while, therefore, thoy wero willing to expend
every enorgy and resource of tho Govornmont,
Wore willing even to risk their own money iu tho
purchase of troops to light tho b?tllo, it was from
no purpose to rostoro tho Union. That, of all eup
posablc events, was the one which they tho least
desired. Thoy had won their stake. Every play
had boon successful. They were undisputod mas
tors of tho North; in that way they wero undisput
ed masters of tho Government; through that Go
vernment thoy wore aa undisputod ma store of the
South. That section lay a holpleas, bleeding,
prostrato victim. It was a source of imperial pa
tronage and spoil, with no hand to grasp its
treasure hut their own. Their loaders, with such
realms of plunder to distribute, woro potentates
aDd powers. Tho patrons of Home woro scarcely
greater. Tho crowd of clients ovon could expect
a share; aud to surrender this domain of plunder
to spare tho prostrato victim?to let it reach the
sanctuary of tho Constitution?to let it join the
adversary party at the North,-and put ovon their
own power in peril?was not to bo admitted. It
transcended every conception of political pru
dence. It might ho honeBt, just, and magnanimous
to do so, but whilo thoy praise tboso virtues, they
cannot practice them at such a prieo as that. Tho
imperial Btako already won was not to bo aban
doned to tho claims of merely moral obligation;
and periling the Union to achieve their power,
thoy -would peril or break the Republic to ro
tainit.
Such was tho state of facts a few months since.
Everywhere the eurfaco indications wore of peace.
All classes at tho North were equally active in
Winding up tho war, and no question was raised
but of the punishment and humiliation necessary
to the South, and the state of feeling to fit her for
the Union. But to thoeo who looked bolow the
eurfaco it was vory cortain this state of peace
could not continue Tho men who looked to peace
for the restoration of tho Union, and all the hopea
and glories of tho Republic, could hardly hold aa
brothers tboso who dared to say the Union and
such glories should never bo restored. The men
"who held the Government aa an instrument of ag
gression, and the South as plunder, could scarcely
feel a brother's kindness for those who would tear
it from them, and charge them with tho Crimes
: , .theymeditated. Botween euch variant parties it
was utterly impossibld collision should not come,
; - and it has come at last. ' '
The first distinct announcement .of hostilities
v | , was in : the speech of Mr. Tuaddf.os Stevens,
wliioh wo published a few day? since, nnd made
tho subject of romark. That is followod now by
- the speech of Mr. Sumneu, beforo tho Convention
to nominate a Govornor for tho State of Massa
chusetts. The flag thus raised must float at
every eoction of tho North. It is not to be sup-,
poaed these mon havo acted without com-ort; not
to be doubted but that thev speak tho'purpose
of tho party, and that tho dio is cast whoso
turn ?b to determine, for futuro time, the fortunes
and oven tho form of this Ropublic. Tho Govern
ment BUBtainod, and the Southern 8tateB restored,
it may re-enter its'career with hopos and pros
pecte bright as?y^f; but not Buatainod?th? power
remaining in tho banda of a party whose ' sens? of
liberty is tho privilege to plunder arid oppross?
no j1'?P? of freedom remains to ua, nor is it cortain
thatttu*/0rm8 oven ?' a 'ro? government can aur
yive tho shoe* ot auch collieion.
It wore impossible to look upon thoao occur
rence a without somo feeling of apprehension; and
tho feeling must be greater with us, for that, while
we havo oyorything at stake, we are to bo passive
Bjaoctator? r,ji tj,0 contest. Tho issue will be made
in Congroaa, upon tho admission of our roproson
tatives, and upon that ?bbuo wo can have no in
fluence. We can niako no concessions; adopt no
forms that will render our representation accop
tablo. Tho conclusivo reason against it is, that it
Will strengthen tho party that stands by the Gov
ernment to sustain it against their threats of vio
lence; and tho battle, therefore, must bo fought
by the Gove.-mneot.-with the support only which
comes from tlirinn people at the North who have
yet tho parji w to prosorv'o and porpotuato tho
Republic. ,i_'L-? . \:

Dhottqht in New En_la:o>.?Whilst tho West
has been suffering from too much rain, Now Eng
land and New York havo boon enduring a terriblo
drought. The Boston Traveler says :
We have not had so severe a drought in this
section since 1854. Tho springs aro not so low as
they were in that year, because until last year we
have had a long series of wot years whioh havo
kept the springs well filled.
We had in this part of the country, tho prosont
year, a greater orop of hay than in any year for a
quartor of a contury, owing to tho rains and warm
weather of May and Jane, and the favorablo
weather for securing tho crop in July. All the lato
crops will bo very light, and of apples such a
scarcity has never been known within tho memory
of the oldest inhabitants. Orchards which usually
produce sovoral hundred barrels, will not furnish
enough to supply the family at the homestead.
Tho Boston Journal says :
. Tho leaves are shrivelling and turning brown.
the grass and tho flowers aro drying up, the soil
is as nshcB. Poople aro wondering what is to be
come of thorn, if things are to go on in this way
much longer. It is little consolation to bo told
that tho harvests of Great Britain are suffering
from wet, and that tho West has had the rainiest
season known for years. Those things may show
that tho full avorago of moisture has fallen upon
the earth, only wo hod not our sharo, "but there's
the rub." We must be patient and hopeful that
tho balance, not out of due time, will be rodressed.
and those languishing fiolds and gardens will yot
bo blessed with a fair return.
The complaints from New York aro fully as
strong as those from Now England.

PROCLAMATION
BY THE PROVISIONAL GOVERNOR.
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT 80UTH CAROLDNA, 1
SEPTEMBER 18, 1865. (
WHEREAS, IT IS REPRESENTED THAT IN MANY
portions of tho Stato there Is great disturban?-?
and apprehension from lawless persons, who are thiev
ing, marauding and committing acts of violence romoto
from military garrisons stationed at tho Court Houses;
and whoreas, Brigadier-Genoral AMES, commanding the
Northwestern portion of the State, has suggested the
organization of a militia polico force In each District ot
hia command, to act In concert with bis forces in pre
serving order and peace In tho community; and whereas,
it la supposed that tho other military commanders will
have no objections to tho aid and assistance on tho part
of the citizens ha suppressing crime and maintaining
order; and whereas, also, it appears that President
JOHNSON has sanctioned and authorized tho Provis
ional Governor of Mississippi to organize a similar force
in that State, and has forbidden tho military authorities
thero to interfere with suoh organization:
Now, herofore, I, BENJAMIN FRANKLIN PERRY,
Provisional Govornor of tho 8tato of South Carolina, do
proclaim, order and declare, that there shaU bo formed
and organized in each Judicial District one or more mili
tia companies for a homo police, to act under and be
auxiliary to tho military garrison of such District In pre
venting crimes and preserving the peace of the District.
The companies will consist of a Captain and three Lieu
tenants and eighty men, scattered over the Distriot so as
to bo easily accessible from all points where any distur
bance may occur. When tho companies are formed,
they will report, through their Captains, to tho respec
tivo Brigadier Generals commanding in South Carolina,
and to the Provost Marshals at the respective Court
Houses, and from them receive their orders. When ar
rests have been made, they will turn the offenders over
to the civil authorities or bring them before the Provost
Court Marshal for trial and punishment, according to
the terms of agrcomont between Generals MEADE and
GILLMORE and mysolf as to the respectivo Jurisdictions
of tho civil and military authorities In South Carolina.
This police guard wUl bo voluntary In Its organiza
tion, and should be composed of nono bnt discreet per
sons of standing and charaotor In the community, who
are willing to render then? services promptly when tho
occasion rsqulres. It Is thought that tho bare organiza
tion of such forces throughout tho State will havo a
most salutary Influence In preserving peace andordor
and in preventing crime. Tho evil-doers w?l know that
there is a powor, ready at hand, to arrost them and bring
hom to Justice. It Is to bo hopod that all good citizens
will cncorfuUy rondor this servico. It should be a poet
Of honor, as It Is; to guard and protect tho country.
Done at Columbia the day and year above stated.
