COLUMBIA, S. C., Dec. 28, 187 G.
TWO WEEKS IN SOUTH CAROLINA,
I have been nearly two weeks in South Carolina ,
During this time I have heard the stories and
statements of over two hundred citizens,—men and
women, white and black, republicans and demo
crats, cultured and illiterate, soldiers and civilians,
from different counties and districts of the State;
and I have read the sworn testimony of a host of
witnesses who had been summoned to Columbia to
give evidence in the United States District Courts
as well as a I °rev collection of affidavits and let
ters on file in the Executive archives. Gen. Sher
idan once remarked, in a casual way, that, if he
owned hell and Tex" and was obliged to live in
one of them, he would not hesitate to rent out
Texas and lice in the other place. Now, South
Carolina is worse than Texas. Last June I was in
Mississippi and heard all the evidence given be
fore the Senate Investigating Committee there. I
thought; then, that I had seen the reverse of the
apostolic vitae!' of the heavens opened—anti that
the Inferno itself had been removed to M ississippi.
But South Carolina, is worse than Mississippi. Its
banditti are more remorseless, its phlitieians more
unscrupulous, and representatives
more untruthful,' If the Republicans of the North,
and the law-abiding portion of the Democratic
party, could know the true condition of affairs in
this 'State, it would be blotted out from the'map of
Me Republic and -a rnilita ry government establish•
ed hero until the present , race die, aut. The evi
dence given before the Congressional Committees
here has been aptly character zed its "mOnofotiout;
—the Monotony of assassination." This was the
utterance of one of the most epnservative anti dis
tinguisbed.statesmen of the Nation.
, T
There are no such people here as the chivalry
in the sense in which civilized persons understand'
the term. The public men of South Carolina are
veneered barbarians. , And the veneering is very
thin. They scruple, at . neither lies nor murder to
accomplish their ends. ~ft i 4 perfectly astounding
to read here the statements that they telegraph to
the North. Seien-tenthi of them are absolute
lies. In enfranchising the blacks the North for
got two things—first, theabject ignorance in which
slavery had Itept.tii9, bonciusen.i, and second, the
savage brutality that slavery had bred in the blood
and bones of their masters. Andersonville was
the ripe fruit of such a system. I heard the other
day as qld judge in speaking of these people say.
"The Sioux should be breught here to improve the
breed." South Carolina;" he added "in the gee!=
ogy of human history, has only reached the :Del
vonian period--rthe epoch most prolific of ,mon-.
sters." It seems a harsh saying. But I predict .
that the evidence that wily tie published by the
Congressional Committees will show that this ver.3
diotis as just as it is severe,
THE TWO pIcKA Alp ,pARTIES.
Let me briefly.intiica4%how these brutal "chiv- ,
airy" conducte d toe last election.. Early in the
Spring Gen:'M. C. 'tallr began to advocate the
"straight-atit polity,7-4 that is, that the rebel Dem
oarats shopld ; refuse to efloperata with the reform
Republicans and make a partizan effort to carry
the State.
Theie are 3COtkfl •more - tea:llb 'male blacks than
there are adult rnaleythites in this state.. Not one
in a hundred of the blacks can be coaxed or brib-,
ed to vote the Democratic ticket. They' all i-ae
at eVerY election. They regard the ballot asithe
most precious symbol of their manhood,; Thesel
facts rendered the success of the Democracy as a,
party utterly hopeleq3 at, any free and tali. election
Their leaders' tried by every peaceful agency
to divide the black vote. They never tnade.a con
vert.
•:This was unfortunate for all classes; for it made
the . Republican party irresponsible and puttnany
b'aif men into office. Black demagogues weroften
ole,cted•t6•the legislature and therewero 'unwise
expenditures and unnecessary extravagance. But,
although the taxation was necessarily heavier
than before the war, it was and has always been
rituch les4 onerous than in the Northern Sta!es
Apart from any extravagance, the mere fact of
etnapipation more than doubled the expenses of
the government, because as one example every
black offender, (formetly punished by his Master
or not punished at all,) had now to be prosecuted
in the courts of She, „State.This..nearly doubled
the machinery of justice. .Behools were establish
ed for all classes. In the days when chivalry rul
ed there were no free schools for the whites• ' and
it was a penitentiary offence to teachablackchild
to read. every principle and institution of
Pro!/rest in South Carolina haft been introduced by
the denounced and detested carpet-bay governments."
Bear this vital fact in mind. Now, the reason why
(notwithstanding this fa.ct,) the taxation here un
der "carpet-hag rule' . is but czcessive as corripared
With the taxation of New York under'• shellelah
rule is because the Federal authority,eommanded
that all the Southern war debts, should be wiped
out. This mandate ruined thousands . cdrich men
who had loaned their money to the Rebel;Govern- ,
meat, but it lesoeftd the burdens :of taxation, all,
over the. South. ,

as he lay there, bleeding, eel groaning, and
writhing in pain.
The party then organized under the pretext of
hunting the other negro suspected of the assault
—suspected, equally without any evidence. Thus,
the signal was given. The Rifle Clubs gathered.
Here was the pretext. And now the lung-pre
dicted and preconcerted slaughter began. The
record al these .three days is ono of the most
ghastly epiSodesi of Southern history. Over 20
innocent men Were shot down, in the fields, on the
roads, and iu the .swamps. At the end of the
third day, upwards of seventy ne;!roes had been
chased into a swamp. It was vot,o; t i y the Rifle
Clubs to move on them at day break - •and murder
every one of them. The swamp was surrounded.
Escape was impossible. At early dawn,
the
skirmishers advance i. Suddenly, as if God Him
self had intervened, a column of men was seen
approaching in military order. The Bandits
halted. It was a company of United States soldiers.
A messenger had readied them. They had marched
all night to get to the swamp before dawn. The
negroes were saved. They wept and leaped met
screamed fur joy. They clustered around the
troops and clasped their arms and legs in the ex
tewrance of their gratitude.

more. Negroes were told everywhere--nut here
and there but all over the State—that they should
not be allowed to rent the land another year unless
they voted the Democratic ticket. Barbers lost
their customers, butchers lost their business.
servants were turned off by hundreds, draymen.
saw their carte stand unemployed,—everywhere
and in everything the proscription was remorse
less. Thousands of men for weeks together all
over the State wore afraid to sleep in their houses
at night. They lay out in the cotton-patches and
the woods. Republican meetings were broken up
by armed and organised companies, anal in many
counties no Republican meetings could be bold.,
The leading men were driven from their homes.—,
There was not only not a fair election but no ap
proach to it. There was a reign of terror as com

collection of pictures in the•ecaintry, and. he was
compelled to. bring them to.Ple haeuner. Thecol
lection brought nearly $460,060, some of the plc
titres bringing enormous price. 'Turner's "Slave
Shipp sold fisrslo,ooo. Church's "Niagara," $12,.
500, and severil Meissoulers, very small ongs,rnot
over six by eight inches, sold as high as $6,000.
These pictures were bought by eu people ati'
Garrett, the President of the Baltimore and - Ohio
Railroad Company, and the great bap ker, Cpro,orian
of Washington. It is a curious fact chat Mr.
Johnson, who bought thesepictures years ago, got
more'for there in these hard times than-he paid,

EDITOZ. JOURNIL a fertile and productive country
no great community call be long or greatly prosperous,
unless it has the disposition and ability to supply most of
its wants. The example of England and Germany conclu
sively shows that the uation dr State that Utilizes all its
forces and encourages the employment of every human
tiicuity, is the owr which becomes the most wealthy awl
powerful ; while the ex:maple of Persia and Turkey shows
that nations thatengage in only one pursuit, to the com
parative neglect atilt others,
do not have a flourishing
growth and are not capable of resisting adversity.
The people of a State should so direct their employments
that success would nut be contingent upon a bountiful
harvest of a single crop.
I.l.•tore thu w•ar the Southern'States, by directing all
th , •ir energies to the production of cotton and sugar and
neglecting the grain crops. had to look to the' North al
most entirely for breadstutts.
But during the last few years they have been aiming to
produce a large portion of their food supplies and as a re
sult they are becoming more prosperous than ever before.
There 'a re no lean pigs or horsei to be seen in North-West
ern.At kansas„corn p,rd wheat are plenty, corn is worth:to
cents per bushel and wheat from 60 cents to SI per bushel
and all other farm products are abundant and cheap.
This State has all the elements necessary to maintatain
mpnufacturing towns all through it, and is able to sustain
the producer aad consumer Side by side. It has abundant
water power, extensive coal fields and illimitable quanti
ties of raw material entering into the thonsand manufac
tured product. suited to the wants of a civilized people.
If it will put forth its hand, if can Successftilly compete
with either Now or Old England in the • manufacture of
many articles for which money i 9 now sent abroad.

cal industry. are to be found all-over the State and will fur
nish material for agricultural implements, furniture, wag
ons and various other uses for which timber is employed
In all parts oil the State are valuable metals and minerals,
Arkansas has over three thousand mita of riavigable riv

Manufactures for Nebraska
Horace Greeley's advice to the young man
no longer coversthe ground. We are far from
desiring•to stem the tide of young men going

machinery is as much needed as the "young

The growth of Illinois arrested the atten
tion of the world. Starting almost from an
equal base, and running over twenty years,
the rnito of increase in Nebraska nearly doub
les that of Illinois
But in spite of this increased productive
power, very little head% ay has thus far been
made in manufactures, and probably no State
in the Union otters better inducements for the
opening up of the various industries common
to the country, than Nebraska. , ;
There is big money in the manufacture of
flax into ropes, twines, sacks, arc. Hogs are a
profitable crop, and there is'no reason why
pork-packing and the - curing of ham %lid ba
con should not he largely and profitably carri
ed on. ~Soap should be manufactured, iu, the
State more cheaply than further east, a.nd ON,
business must be largely Extended to meet the
home demand. Distilled liquors will
hear tiansportatlon than 'the grain frbm'which
they are made. Paper could be profitably
manufactured, and for many other industries
there is an immediate opening; for instance:
I. Glass, for which a large proportion of the
material can be obtained in the 'State 2.
Starch, from mai z e, wheat /cc. ; 3 Canned
and preserved 'fruits; and potted meats ; '4.
Flannels, blankets, coarse woolens and cheap
carpets ; 5. Various manufactures of leather;
and skins ; and G. Pottery from kaolin ,or
porcelain clay, which exists in inexhaustible
quantities.
Could Horace Greeley visit Nebraska to-day,
his advice would .be : "Go West, young man,
and, build a mill,"—[CommuniaolB4.] „

ONE-THIRD THE COST *Pk' RF:4111:114:LIN.:
The expense of slating new shingle• is only
about the cost of simply laying them. The pint

can be made water-tight at a small aspens,. sad
preserved for many years.
This Slate Paint. is
EXTREMELY CHEAP.
Two gallons will cover a hundred square feet of
shingle roof, while on tin. iron, felt, lame bed boards,
or any smooth surface, from two quarts to one gal
lon are required too 100 square feet of surface, cad
although the Paint has a heist' budj it is easily
applied with a brut .
NO TAR IS USED IN THIS COMPOSITION,
therefore it neither tracks in Winter, nor rows in
Summer.
On decayed shingles it SDI op the holes and
pores,a nd gives a new lebst.intial reef that will
last for years. Carla or warped shingles it briar
to their plaoes, and keeps theta there. It Ills up
all holes in Felt roofs, stops the leeks—awl al

hours after applying. As nearly all paints that
