U ebiler on itlilltiiry Uopiiltllca,-'
The Billowing is an extinct from Webster’s
oration on the completion ol the Honker Hill
f.Monumenl, Juno 17,1813:
A military republic, n government founded on
Iniiiek elections and supported only by the sword,
sa movement indeed, but it retrograde and disas
trous movement from the regular and old-lnsh-
loned monarchical system. If men would enjoy
Ihe blessings of republican government, they
[must govern themselves by reason, by mutual
counsel and consultation, by a sense of leeling
Bud general interest, and by the acquiescence ol
[the minority in the will ol ihe majority proper-
fly expressed; and, above all, the military must
V kept, according to the language of our bill ol
rights, in strict subordination to the civil author
ity.
I Wherever this lesson is not both learned and
practiced, ibgro can bo 110 political freedom.
Absurd, preposterous it is, a scoff and a satire
upon free terms ol constitutional liberty, lor
loriiu of government to be prescribed by uiilitn- -
py leaders, and the right ot suffrage to be exer
cised at the point of the sword.—IIV/vi, rW 1

Tho present political crisis calls upon us, ns

■V mack nan’ll View* of the Nit tuition
Soiltti Carolina.
A meeting of frccdpieu was held at Columbia,
South Carolina, last Monday. It was numerous
ly attended, and the proceedings were marked
by good order. Among others who addressed
the gathering was Beverly Nash, a colored man.
Ills remarks are reported nt length in tliu South
Carolina papers, and we copy a portion of them
that the drill of the current in ihe Palmetto
Stale may be seen. The paper from which we
quote says: “Asa matter of curiosity, wo give
his speech rtrbtrHm, merely smoothing oil the
rough edge, ami dropping the peculiarities of ae-
cent mid pronunciation
Fellow-Citizens—I lmve been taken some
what by surprise and nm not prepared to say all
tlmt I want to, on this occasion ; but wo know
whut wo have come here lor. Wu have come
hero to celebrate the right of suffrage—the one
thing needful to place us on a common platform as
citizens. The Question has been asked, whether
Copyriouts.—The new law ot Cougress, re
lative to copyrights, provides that every proprie-
or of a book, map, pamphlet, chart, musical
^imposition, print, engraving or photograph for
which a copyright shall have been secured, shall
deliver to the library ot Congress ot Wasliing-
lon a printed copy of every such book, map,
pamphlet, chart, musical composition, print, en-
jraving or photograph, within one month alter
publication thereof, or he subject to a penalty of
fweuty-five dollars, to be collected by the librari
an of Congress.
Tiie Black Warrior.—Tho Tuscaloosa
Monitor says of the rise in the Warrior river:
Owing to heavy rains during the past week,
;hc Warrior at this point has been as high as it
ivas at tiie June freshet last year, viz: about 59J
left. At Sander’s Ferry, the river wns one foot;
uul at Mr. Hinton’s place, still lurther helotv,
two tect higher thau last year. This was an un-
iortunate rise for our planters in the river bot
toms, as the most ot them hud their lands pre
pared tor planting, hut better than if it liad oc
curred later in 1I10 season. By the accumulation
ot drilt against the second pier of the old bridge,
(burnt by Croxton,) tiie pier was carried away by
the tbree of the current.
Destitution in South Carolina.—We find
the paragraph below in some of our exchanges:
Mr. J. J. Knox, a very estimable citizen of
frimter District, South Carolina, 'employed a
trust-worthy neighbor to make personal cxiuni-
tation of tho destitution in his vicinity, and lie
•(.ported as follows: “I have not been overlive
miles from home, ttml lmvo seen and heard di
rect from three hundred and sixty-six persons.—
Tiie most of them arc now without bread, and
are actually subsisting 011 corn-husks, and what
ever they can get to preserve life upon, while
there are others who lmvo one and two bushels
I corn yet, hut without any menus to get more.
Some have a liorso or two, and arc trying to
raise a little crop, hut have little or nothing to I
live upon.” Mr. Kuox vouches for tho truth of [
this statement.
wu are prepared tor this condition ot tilings or
not V I do not blame our people for their doubts
on this subject, becauso our former condition was
calculated to make them doubt; but wliethcrwe
are prepared or not, we are now prepared to
vote, under the recent law. 1 must confess that
I do not like that law in ail respects, because it
disfranclies gentlemen in whom wu lmve more
confidence than anybody else, and forbids them
to represent the country as it Should be repre
sented in 1 lie councils of tiie people. My doc
trine is, tlmt every man, whether Ignorant or
not, who is compelled to pay taxes, is entitled to
vote. It is a matter of public policy tlmt wo
should lie, because there is a discontented cle
ment in our midst, composed of the ignorant
people of both classes, which would he greatly
disturbed if they were prevented by a conven
tion of ihe State from exercising the right to
vote, and we should have a revolution in a tea
kettle. For the purpose of peace and quiet,
therelore, iu our State, I want to see everybody
vote, except the women. 1 believe, my Iriends
and fellow-citizens, we arc not prepared for this
suffrage. But we cun learn. Give a nmn tools,
and let him commence to uso them, nnd, in lime,
lie will learn a trade. So it is with voting. We
may not understand it at the start, but, in time,
we shall learn to do our duty.
It tins been said tlmt Calhoun wns master of
South Carolina; Clay, tho dictator ot Kentucky;
and Webster, tiie emperor of Massachusetts.
But hereafter we lire to voto for principles, not
men. And wo have good men in our midst;
men we can I rust; men who arc our Iriends, nnd
have proved, by their acts, tlmt they are the
friends ol tiie State. In these gentlemen we
must lmve confidence, until they hare, proved
tlmt they do not deserve it. I do not* believe
tlmt there is a mun in this district who, if you
will reason with him about these tilings, will not
agree with whut I say. We recognizo the South
ern white mnn as the true friend of tho black
man. You see upon tlmt banner the words,
“ United we staud, divided wo fall;” and if you
could see the seal of tiie society which that ban
ner represents, you would find the white man
and the black man standing with their arms
locked together, ns a type ot Hid friendship nnd
the union which we desire. We lecl tlmt the
white nmn has not understood the black nmn
as tiie black nmn 1ms understood the white man ;
anil it the citizens of South Carolina had all
acted alter the close of the war as these gentle
men have done to-day, and spoken their kind
sentiments us freely, our Stale would not regret
the loss ol twenty thousand colored citizens who
have gone abroad because they had not sufficient
confluence to stay.
Alter the remarks wo lmve heard to<day,-wo
believe there is ti boiler time coming. Twelve
mouths ago Mr. Gibbcssaid: “Fellow-citizens,
we are willing to meet you halt way;” nnd wo
are glad to suy tlmt tho representatives and pub
lic men of Hicliland district lmvo done so on the
present occasion. Wo feel tlmt we uro under
stood here, and we believe that colored men will
hereafter enjoy the rights nnd privileges which
now belong lo their race. There is less preju
dice here, less prejudice everywhere South ot
the Potomac against tho colored man tl»m there
is North of it. [Applause.] I saw in Wnsltlng-
| ton, a few days ago, men more violently opposed
to our advancement than any gentleman here;

The Pay of Army Offiueks.—An official I nnd we know tliutilio States of New Hampshire,
Ohio, ami perhaps some others, have refused
that political equality which exists and lms been
accorded in Smith Carolina. It is our duty,
therefore, to identity ourselves with this soil.
Here we lmve grown from childhood lo man
hood. Many ol us, white and black, have been
brought up together; wo love tho people; we
respect their horror; wo know their worth; and
f ask whether, under these circumstances, hav
ing the power to do so, wo ought not to petition
Congress to remove the disability which shuts
out tlmt portion of our people from the elective
franchise in whom wo lmve such long-tried con-
lklenco.
It we are to have a Convention in llte State
for the purpose of changing its Constitution, let
it he a Convention full of intellect and power.—
If the black man is to cast a vote, let him rest
tlmt vote upon a standard of ability, and not to
be contented to see a body of men who are not
competent to discharge the high duties tlmt will
he required of them.
It is not our desire to be a discordant element
in tiie community, or to unite tho poor against
the rich. Wo want to live together in harmony
—to go to work and restore tiie lost credit of the
State. As General Hampton has said, “our des
tinies depeud upon each other.” The white
man 1ms land, lltu black man lias labor, aud la
bor is worth nothing without capital. AVe must
help fo create that capital by restoring confi
dence, and we can only restore confidence by
electing proper men to till our public offices.
There tiro said to be sixty thousand colored
voters aud forty thousand white voters in South
Carolina. Look wlmt a power you lmve for
good or for evil. But, fellow-citizens, be sure
that you use tlmt power with intelligence, nnd lo
the end tlmt South Carolina, with which your
interests are nil identified, may enjoy the pros
perity which it gives. When citizens come for
ward ami meet us ns gentlemen have done to
day, we have no right to doubt the future. I
look upou to-day as our Fourth of July. And
if we do our duty, we shall prove ourselves wor
thy ot the great privilege with which we Imre
been invested. It is true, the majority of colored
men inuy not bo able to vote intelligently, hut
you will he educated. Iu the lour weeks pre
document from the War Department informs
Congress and the public what is the annual pay
and allowances of all kinds of file different
Ulcers of tho army. Grant, $18,180; Sherman,
$14,814; Ilulleck, $7,717; Meade, $7,717; Sheri-
ttn, $7,717; Thomas, $7,717; McDowell, $.7,-

tenat colonels, $3,004; majors, $3,703; captains,

A Nephew.—Of tiie lately deceased King of
Napaue, who figured in Paris aud London some
twenty yeurs ago, tiie following story is told :
lie one day showed to some ladies, witli great
ourtesy, his rich jewels. Among them was it
ichly-set miniature of a venerable sultan.
“This,” exclaimed the Prince, with tears in his
yes, and with inconceivable tenderness, 1 This
was my poor uncle, wlto brought me up and
whose iteir 1 am.”
"And here," lie added alter a short pause,
fitting his linger on tho heart of the picture,
acre it was tlmt 1 put my dagger into him.”
No Occasion for Difference.— 1 Tho Selma
Mnsenger pertinently asks:
Shall we wlto have so long heeu united, and
itii'oil uuder such circumstances, now he dis-
urbed by dissensions, and turn upon and rend
ach other for tiie gratification ol our common
nontiee?
Shall we sunder the ties tlmt bind us together
nd lorleitn Hie admiration of tiie world, be-
ause witli our eyes still fixed upon a single ob-
ect, we cannot at once agree which ot two or
hree roads is the nearest to it ?
Basical Consistency,—Someof the Hadical
nembers of Congress wlto voted to impose upon
lie people ol the South a rigid military des
lolism, placing the lives, liberty and property o'
inc millions of people at the mercy of five men,

Tennessee.— Negroea arc now allowed to

A young man, knowing that a young lady—

Ireland or England ever did know. There
never wns a people who have gained so much as
we have done. But a little while ago we wore
slaves. Now we are freemen. It 1ms been de
clared that wo shall have a voice in public af
fairs. In these public affairs we must unite with
our white fellow-citizens. They tell us that
they have been disfranchised, yet we tell tiie
North that we will never let tiie hulls of Con
gress be silent until we remove that disability.— [

And then, with a strong pull, a long pull, and a

Mus. Partington on tiie Fashions.—“Thera
is one thing sure," said Mrs. Partington, “the fe
males of the present generation are a heap more
independent than they need to lie. Why, I saw
a gal go by the otiier day tlmt I know belongs to
tins historical class of society, with Iter areas
all tucked up, Iter hair all buzzled up like as if
site hadn’t tuna to comb it for a week, nnd one
of her grandmother's nightcaps, in un awlul
crumbled condition, on her liead. Why, law,
honey, when I was a gal, if onu of thu fellows
came along when 1 llild my clothes tucked up
that way, and my head kivered with an old
while rag, 1 would run lor dear life nnd hide nut
of sight. Well, well, the gals then were inuo-
cent, unconfiscated creatures; now they are what
the French call ‘Mazes.’ ”

The True Policy.—A recent number of
DeBow's Itcriew contains an excellent article
on tiie subject of Southern mnuulactiires from
the able pen ol Major Win. J. Sykes, ol Mis
sissippi, from which we lake the following ex
tract :
“Onr mountains are full of coni and iron ;
our forests abound with tiie finest timber ; we
have immense water-power that we can uso
during the whole year, und which is not injured
by tiie freezes so common in higli Northern
latitudes.
“The best and surest prot* ctiou which we can
