Drown CHARLESTON HOTEL. E. II. IACKSOK, Proprietor. CHARLESTON SC Fellow-Citjzexs : The present administration, although failing lo lullill the lirst expectations of the American people, is nevertheless at- :emj ting, through its office-holders, to prolong its power for the next four years. A large pop tion of the President’s original supporters, and the entire remainder of his fellow-countrymen, without distinction of party, survey this attempt with indignation and alarm. The history of the administration is a showy record of discreditable (sometimes disgraceful) acts—many of them blunders; oiheis crimes. Kver since the day alter the Presi dent’s inauguiation, when, as his first official step, he sought to abro gate one of the oiliest statutes of the republic in order to put a personal friend in office, he has repeatedly shown himself, on the one hand, ig*- norant of the laws, and, on the oth er, defiant of them. He has transcended the limita tions of ihe Constitution and done violence to its free spirit by usurp ing for himself functions which that instrument reserves to the States and lheir citizens. He has tyrannously invaded the political assemblies of our own and other free commonwealths, mis chievously intruding his Federal in fluence into local affairs. He has alternately proposed and defeated service reform, until, not withstanding his professions in its favor, he has proved himself the chiel obstacle to its success. He has, iu multitudes of cases, made tenure of office lo depend not on good behavior of personal fitness, but on mere subserviency to his par tisan schemes. He has pul crafty and ambitious parasites at the receipt of customs, wheie ihty still continue to fatten their private purses on the public funds. He said to a nation weary with war, “Let us have peace,” but has kept the word of promise to the ear to break it to the hope—fostering in the North toward the South a tern* per of bitterness and resentment, instead of fraternity and good will. He has connived at and sustained a number at alien and rotten gov ernments in the Southern Slates, some of whose officers have perpe trated frauds equalled in magnitude only by those ot the Tammany Ring. He has habitually stifled investi gation, even into the gravest charg es, brought against his own house hold. He has committed acts of nepo tism more numerous than are re corded against the entire line of his Presidential predecessors, from Geo. Washington to Andrew Johnson. He has accepted g : fts from flatter ers, for which he has rendered dis honorable equivalents by bestowing 132ptn j public emoluments on the obsrqui- 10 00 am ous gj vers< III short, he has administered his high office not as a trust devolved upon him by the whole people, hut as an estate or property owned by himself alone in fee simple. During all this ever-growing mal administration the President’s parti* sans instead of rebuking his per verse course, have, on the contrary, and for selfish ends, gilded it with uncandid flattery and defended it with specious logic. They have AKItlVK 5 25 p in 6 50 a in 9 25 p in 7 00 p ui 7 45 a ni fi 45 p m 10 30 a ni A K HIVE 4 51 p m 5 15 a in 6 15 p in 5 30 a*m ARRIVE 1 42 a in 6 1C a ni 1 21 p in put forth a series -of in,H.-ki ig pre^* lences o it.e effect that he us paying the publicdebt, that he has reduced the taxes, that he has collected the revenue, that he has settled the Ai»r bama claims, that he has Iranqud- ized the Indians, and that lie has re constructed the South. But not one of these allegations is true. Challenge them iu detail. Is he paying the public debt ? The people, not the President, are pay ing it. Has he reduced the taxes f Congress, not the Executive, has lighteyed, these burd«-i:s of ihe peo ple. Has he collected the revenue? Swarms of his officers haw grown rich by ils collection.- Has he set tled tire Alabama claims? They were neyor so unsettled as at- this fiour. Has lie made peace with ihe Indians#? The. hile-t intelligence from the frontier ra uf massacre and blood, provoked by frauds which his officers have perpetrated on the de ceived anti cxaspsrnted savages Has lie given prosperity and con- tculment to the Southern pc »ple, who, with unexampled unanimity, are demanding the overthrow of an administration which has field tl cm in surveilaoce and treated them with scorn ? The President’s office-ho'dera now iu vain put forth these glittering hut false pretences of the success of an administrali >u which three fourth* of the citizens of the United Slates are impatient to vole in»o immediate dissolution. The recent Libetai Republican Convention at Cincinnati—oue of the most stately and brilliaut parlia ments ever assembled in tiiis coun try—uttered the fit protest of an aroused people against a demoraiiz ed government, just as the ci izens of the Empire Slate, a year before, rose in spontaneous revolution a« gainst a corrupt municipal Ring. The prompt aud brave action of the Convention has electrified, the couv- try, and sent a tremor through the self-complacent security of the o v- ers that he.’ The Cincinnati plai- form is morally as noble as the great Declaration to which our forefathers pledged ‘their lives, their fortune*, and their sacred honor.’ These principles include the equality of all men before the law; the perpst ual union of these Slates—which nothing now threatens save corrup tion at the Federal centre—the non revival of all questions and amicable acceptance of all results which have been finally and forever settled by the thirteenth, fourteenth aud fif teenth amendments; universal am nesty, which is the most divine act possible to human government; the removal of all political disabilities, occasioned by a war whose battle fields have now been seven years green with peace; the ever sacred and inviolate supremacy of the civil over the military function of free government; and fast, not least) a civil service which shall evermore lend to reform itself through the wholesome regime of a Presidency expiring by self-limitation with one term. In announcing these principle* ihe Cincinnati Convention gave them a living embodiment iu the Person of a Presidential candidate who is an illustrious citizen of our own State ; a statesman whose honored name is a household word in every cottage in the land ; whose proverbial aud absolute and incorruptible integrity is the best possible guarantee tor aid honest Government in future'; whose prudent and economical views of public administration are the earnest and good hope of a safe and thrifty management of the Executive office; whose kindliness of spirit is typical of the good will which should here after exist between the two sections heretofore opposed, and whose long life, spent in rare devotion to the in terests of the poor, the oppressed, and the toil-worn among his coun trymen, has enshrined him in all men’s respect as one of the most faithful champions of human right* and one of the most revered exam ples of personal worth. In the candidate for the Vice Presidency, we hail a noble and gallant statesman of the West; a Kentuckian by birth, a Missourian by residence, who, for years fought the battle of freedom on slave soil; who, at the close of the war against slavery, was one of the headiest to demand amnesty for the Southern, people, and whose career deserves the sympathy of all who honor cour age ami action dictated by a nobili ty of soul. In view of this platform and these nominations, we hereby invite you, fellow-citizens, ot all party names, to join the leform movement at once, and lo organize yourselves, without further delay, into working associa tions in your own respective coun ties, cities, towns, wards and dis tricts.

Stionr Words Exactly to the Point. —The Courier-Journal sets forth very clearly the points which will probably crane before the Baltimore Convention for its consideration. The wisdom of its utterance cannot lie disputed: As the case stands, and the situ ation is not likely to change mate rially between now and the assem bling of the Convention, the Grant men cannot elect unassisted, nor can the Liberals, nor yet the Dem ocrats. Greeley, has already t>een nominated by the Liberals; Grant will be the nominee of the Radicals; and, if a straight Democratic candi date is brought into the field, one of two things must follow: either Grant will be elected or there will be no election. While neither party can elect* a combination of any two of them can. The danger is that the Democracy, relying upon the dis sensions of their opponents, may bring out a candidate of their own, and in that event the effect must in evitably be either to dri\e the masses of former Republicans who would otherwise support Gr*eley lo Grant, or lake the election into the House of Representatives. Whether the one or the other hap pened, the disastrous effect would be the »me so far as tl»e Democra cy are concerned. The House of Representatives would infallibly de cide fur Grant. The defeat of a regular Demo cratic nomination next November, it is plainly to be seen, we could not hope to recover from. The prestige of the party and it* organization would be gone. All the bright an- ticipations tire Democtacy cherish respecting the Congressional sue* cession would turn out as unsub stantial as the baseless fabric of a dream. The Radicals would have the President, they would Itave Congress, they would have uninter rupted dominion over the country for all time to cotne: The Baltimore. Convention will have it in its power to determine whether Greeley or Grant shall be President. The solemn responsi bility will rest with it of choosing between freedom ami chains for the South, and, indeed, for the w4iole country. Can any one be at a loss lo foretell what its action will be? a* that aui^ade i* at present one of hesitation ire think it an lutfortunu* o ie. • 5* " / • • “ Tlie people of tbe South have the g:eate*tetake iu tlie result of the Presidential coote*t; and they should not be put boprfessly at tbe mercy and helplessly in the power of ihoee who sacrificed them at once and if it appear profitable will sacrifice them again.

Tub Stkisino Mam*.—The ]*, bor question i> coming lip in ils most unpleasant form in sfY«r*l sections of the country. Theriot of the Michigan miners have reached such a violent stage that troops are called for, and the New York carpenters are engaged in a .more peaceful though no less earnest campaign to secure short hours and larger pay. The latter movement is die more significant, in that h is fathering rapidly non-society men iota the or der under whoee auspices the strike is organized, and assuming propor tions that must obstruct in an un comfortable manner the business in New York. It is to be rag retted that no more reasonable and effective method of reforming their grievances has been adopted by tbeef men, for of all appliances for compelling con cessions from employers, a strike is the most dangerous lo those engaged in it- The Providence Herald has just emerged from 4 similar d.tficul- ty, regarding hours and pay. with its compositors, and the iwsujt it time the efforts of tb« stribars ba*t bad no effect at all oathatfitjOttiau, which remains as before. Hut, aside from the almost certain failures af such movements iu a country where labor is free, tbe lose to those engaging in the strike is inevitably greater than tbe sum of hny advantages they tnay gain if successful. Tim New York carpenters* strike appears for midable just now, and baa accom plished a certain measure of success; but it will hardly prove an exception to the many that have preceded it.
