"Mi© Nigrht la Dreary.”
f If it were possible and we were permit¬
ted to do so, we. should, Rip Vanwinkle
like, fall asleep and allow no wakeing, un¬
til a brighter and better day should dawn
•pon the land of our birth—the one in
Which we live and love, it may be, too
Well, for our own good, if not for our own
happiness. Rich in every element ncces
•ary to ensure boundless prosperity—in¬
habited by a people, justly renowned for
lotellcotuality, virtue and morality—edu¬
cated, refined, inventive and industrious,
they are equal to any emergency within
the range of possibility of human achieve¬
ment, it would soon recover its losses and
begin a new career in its acquisition of
wealth, eclipsing by far, any former pro¬
gress within the memory of man. The
march of mind, too, would necessarily keep
pace with all material improvement. It
would be a necessary result—a conse¬
quence, not inevitable or accidental, but
proceeding from causes which, guided by
wisdom, would most certainly effect it.
God and nature have done all that we
oould ask, for the South. Her soil and
climate are unsurpassed in fertility and
healthfulnegs. Her streams are niviga
bio at all seasons of the year, from their
entrance into the seas, to the head of nav¬
igation—a point generally marked by
Shoals—and these abound to their very
sources, affording water power enough, to
tarn nearly all the machinery in the civili¬
zed world—her Rail Jt oac | s arc numerous,
-are multiplying rapidly and will bo limit¬
ed only, by the necessities of trade and
the eonvenience of her people, her mines
of iron, coal, copper, lead, gold, silver &c.,
are not even dreamed of, in all their ex¬
tent, and her productions embrace nearly
everything in the shape of vegetation, from
the meet valuable timber to tbc most in¬
significant plant, useful to wan or boast,
which can bo found North of the Equator.
It is thus seen at a glance, that the hand
of industry and skill arc alone needed, to
convert the entire country into an earthly
paradise—an elysium, in which men would
like to dwell, with immortal nature forev
er.‘
But “the night is dreary.” Industry
and skill alono and unaided can accomM
plish but little. They may exhaust them¬
selves again and again in their efforts, but
unless sustained and encouraged by a fru¬
gal and wise Government, they will never
“reach the Mountain top” or attain more
than partial success. Tho war is over by
tho terms of surrender. For more than
four years, wo havo entertained, now and
then, some hope, that ice should have
peace. But peace, it would still seem, is
■“afar off.” Resistance is vain—submis¬
sion is fruitless—no act of ours, overpower¬
ed as wo are, can secure the coveted boon.
Wo want peace, wc need peace, we pray
for peace, wo havo had the promiso of
iof peace, but we have no substantial peace,
peaco that inapires tho Southern heart
•with hope and encourages Southern tnen
'to labor and toil for the rewards and bles¬
sings which well directed labor is sure to
bring. Oh 1 for peace—peace—peace—
peace that is not degrading but elevating;
•that brings with it, tho glorious privilege
of “rewarding every man according to his
deserts”—of correcting evils in private as
well as publio life—a peace that restores
order, law and justice through civil tribu¬
nals and confines the Bayonet to its legiti¬
mate work—its proper sphere.
But “the Night is dreary.” No run
light appears to dispel its darkness. The
storm still rage, in all its fury. The
North and West, from whenco the first
rays of sunlight must come, still «sn<ithcir
thunders down upon us. They bid us
give up slavery in 1865 and we did it,
Kk§ men. Away went four thousand
millions of property 1 They bid us give
up our ootton bags that wc had subscrib¬
ed to the Confederate Government, “so
ealled” and wo thought that we dul that,
but found afterwards, that we committed
a slight mistake. They bid us hire our
former slaves for the remainder of the
year 1865, and we did that, but lost near¬
ly all of our hogs aud poultry and not a
few of our cattle and sheep, to say noth¬
ing of the ten thousand ether losses, rob¬
beries and grievances, and the many “cus¬
sing words” that wc thought of, if wc
didn’t say them. Siucc 1865, they have
continued to “pile on the agony.” Oar
purest and best men, through tho instru¬
mentality of Test Oaths are excluded from
all Offices and strangers, unknown to us
and uninvited by ns—our avowed and
•pen enemies, affiliating with our # former
slaves, uneducated and credulous, come
$owb from the North and West, to fill our
Offices and for the sake of pence we have
}
born that. And as if that were not
enough to arouse the very worst passions
of our nature—borne in meekness though
it was, they have continually traduced
and slandered us, that they themselves
might be kept in power at our expense—
yes, at our expense —at salaries and per
diems and “et cets” unprecedented in our
history and at a time too, when our people
were a unit in their efforts to be received
again into the Union, under the Constitu
lion as it was in 1861, with Slavery forev¬
er abolished. They bid us give these old.
slaves the right to suffrage and we have
done that. They now bid us, to give
them the right to hold office and every
other right, social and political, and we
may be forced to do that. It is “the last
feather on the camel’s back that breaks
it.” This may be the last exaction. In
God’s name, it is enough. No darker
eloud can gather around and above, this
ill-fated people. No weightier curse
could befall them. It is death to white
and black. Let us alone! and we will
protect and encourage the African race
and give them light and knowledge to
the extent of their capacity. We will
make them happy—the bonds of friend¬
ship shall be strong and enduring, between
them and us. • We koow them best and
they understand ns. We know and they
know that they have no capacity to gov¬
ern us. These strangers—carpet baggers,
know it too and take advantage of it. The
leading minds at the North and West are
not ignorant of this indisputable fact.—
But oh! the hate to rebels !—“the love
of the flesh pots of Egypt!”
“The Night is dreary.” Deep gloom
surrounds us on every side. This is “a
goodly land” but it is badly governed. It
ever will be under the existing circum¬
stances. Prosperity and good Govern¬
ment are Siamese twins—they arc insep¬
arable. Adversity and bad government
arc twin brothers—they too, are insepa¬
rable. We say it more “in sorrow than
in anger,”- that this present Government
is sadly deficient in most of the elements
of a good Government. Power is good
in itself, but it must be wisely used to
make it a blessing to those who arc under
its influence. It has power, in numbers ;
In its soldiery; in its resources of men
and money; in intellect among the masses,
but it uses its immense power, to pull down
the weak and to build up the strong—to
tax the laborer and to foster the capitalist,
by exempting -liis bonds anil gold from
taxation. It has intellect at its command,
but that, if virtuous and patriotic, is not
only contemned but studiously and sys¬
tematically ignored. We lament these
things for our country—for our whole
country—-for North, South, East and
est. Bitter fruits will be produced
by them. A general fate will overtake us
all, olie of these days. Tho South will
not always drink alone “the wormwood
and the gaul.” She may get an overdose,
as she is the first to take the bitter cup,
but she will not always drink it alone. It
is being prepared for the whole country.
“The night is indeed dreary,” and as yet,
no morning light appears. We fear that
the tl att it icell,” will Dot be again sound¬
ed by “the Sentinels on the watch tower
•of Liberty,” for many long years to come,
if ever. 01 VIS.

Rot Very Funny J
Sinco the late demise of the okl Board
of Commissioners, and the failure to fill,
by election, their plaocs with such as
would aoeepfc, a growing disposition is
manifested by certain “funny fellows,”
from tire country, to disregard the laws of
the place, very much to the inconvenience
and discomfort of the citizens, not to say,
in some instances, to the danger of their
lives. Now wc have no complaint to make
against those who choose “ to raise their
spirits by pouring spirits down,” if they
will sec to it, that they disturb no one, in
any way, while under its influence. Peace
is necessary to the well-being of society
and law and order, must be obeyed and
preserved. We more "than half suspect,
that our present evils aro not without
remedy. There is lava enough in the
land to meet all disorders, if enforced.
Tho hiatus in the exercise of municipal
authority, is only temporary, unless the
disposition manifested by a fow, to cause
disturbances, most ujiuccessarily, is re
strained the parties themselves. We
must have good order, if we would pre¬
serve our reputation or advance our inter¬
ests or rightfully train up our children.
Wc ask nothing .more than what justly
belongs4o us, who live in the Town. Wc
would deprive no one of his just rights,
kuowingly, whether he live in town or
country, nor are we willing to submit to
lawlessness from any quarters so long as
we can help ourselves. This we can do
and may do, should wc be forced to do it.
Wc would greatly prefer peace and quiet
as a spontaneous offering to good order
and to the principles of justice. But should
we be forced to resort to strong mea
surcs, wc are bold to say, more in warning
than as a threat, that there is vitality and
energy enough left no, .Hhongh we have
no Board of CommuMooers at this tune,
to take care of ourselves. If the law is
not strong enough to secure a Board of
Commissioners, by election, it may be so
changed as to secure ono by appointmeul,
and one which shall bo held to strict
accountability ,... a
in the discharge of its du¬
ties. Whatever tho cost, order and quiet
must bo preserved. It only requiro
of 3 con
cert action to effect it. No community
ought to prosper, who has not nerve enough
to take eare of itself and to protect its
just, legal own
and moral rights. If we are
not to have order, as a voluntary offering
on the part of all, wc cate not how much
disorder and lawlessness is daily witnessed.
It will only show, «that the end draweth
nigh.” VERBUM SAT.

ceived too late for publication last week,
on account of others coming in previous

Last evening at the witching hour of
midnight, whilst strolling beneath the
magnificent shades of that most charming
street, and retreat of our little city of Gre¬
cian name—“the abode of beauty, the Gra¬
ces and Music,” we were suddenly spell¬
bound and entranced which naturally and
irresistably halted us upon our homeward
way. A calm rested upon the face of the
earth—all nature was hushed and silenced
into repose exeept now and then the occa
sional rattle of a frisky little leaf paying
respect to a passing zephar, ever and anon,
the twitter of a birdling, and occasionally
the gentle noise of the ashes falling from
our cigar—thus happily the spell oame
o’er us like a dream. The sable mantle
of night was caught and “pinned with a
star,” the moon beams were dancing in
and out from among the shadows, and the
fragrance of the sweetest flowers, dipped
in the fallen dews of evening, w&s borne
to us not by the “breezes from the treeses”
(though wo havo heretofore been par¬
tially regalled by these very same “bree¬
zes”) but by the soft zephars from the
magnificent gardens on either hand where
tairy queens sport and where at such an
hour the laughing Hamadriades sometimes
Mine to join the enhancing festival and
lend mirth k sweetness. What father
was calculated to take our thoughts from
this bright world to yon beautiful and
richly gilded Heaven ? Surely nothing
to aid the flight and indulge a still deep¬
er and sweeter reverie—surely nothing,
though wc ever wish for something more
glorious. Entranced we listened, spell¬
bound we lingered ’til the last note floated
away upon the summer air—for indeed,
the Amateurs—“the faithful disciples of
tho Musical Goddess” were again abroad
last evening. The entire Suite upon the
occasion was even more imposing than for¬
merly—the Amateurs themselves anayod
in the most elegant of evening costume
tiped with white beavers—the long line of
valets in handsome livery keeping silent
time to the iront step, and the music, oh !
Bow thine ear O Goddesses- and tell me
was there ever such ? Once again, what
of the night ? The spell came o’jr and
held us neat the massive gates opening to
the Palatial residence of Lord
the fitful rays of the moonbeams through
the dark foliage of evergreen k cedar wc
took in the picture worthy of a Raphael or
a Glenn. The music was really good, yes,
we will say Divine, for “there’s no place
like Home,” but upon this occasion wc
were sure “tune after tune was not played”
nor “song after «ong sung”—the instru¬
mental piece, however, was captivating,
the song, emanating from a handsome war
b’cf, was most thrill : ng and we dare say
the impression favorable and lasting. To
the Amateurs themselves, the interlude
perhaps was better and more satisfactory,
birt ere the performances fairly re cora
tuenced, there dashed upon the scene a-a
a huge dog extremely frightful to behold
(so thought somebody else,) and then for
the life of us the scampering prelude was
grand, eloquent, sublime and never before
listened wc to such fast music, the per¬
formers keeping time to the quickest
quick-step ending with an echo of dogs
barking, eats mewing, cattle lowing, hor¬
ses neighing, chickens crowing, frogs
croaking and no doubt, fair maidens laugh¬
ing to the distant tramp of retreating foot¬
steps. The spell was broken, the charm dis.
pellcd and wc resumed our walk thinking
after all what a jolly time wc had. Hur¬
rah for the sereuaders ! Three cheers for
the Amateurs ! But let not the scare last
long my boys, and in the language of “Isa
dore’’ we will exclaim “Try, try again.”—
Courage is the watch-word.
