THE UAl>ll'\lN finU’iVTF.N 'WAR.
“There Is no doubt that wnr will follow the
election ofßeymour nnd Blair.— Radical paper.
■We clip the above from a Radical ex
change. We have seen the same sent! •
ment expressed by several prominent
Republican papers. What does it mean ?
Who will inaugurate the war that." will
follow the election of Seymour and
Blair ?” Will it he the Radicals of the
North, or the negroes of the South ? It
will have to be one or the other, or both
united, as the Democracy can hardly be
suspected of any intention of making
war upon a government of their oi\a
choosing.
The man who threatens the people
with war is a traitor at heart, and should
ho and his party attempt to carry out
their threats, they will be made to
leel the virtue of hemp, teymow trill
he elected; that is as certain as fate. He
will be sworn in ns President of the
United States on the 4th day of March,
18G9. After that he will attend to nil
Radicals who talk about war. Let the
white Radicals and their dear negro
friends "try it onj” let them attempt
to get up another rebellion—we wish
they would—and the Democrats of the
nation, the men who intend to elect
Seymour and Blair, will sweep them
from the face of the earth.
Y/e can tell these Radical traitors that
their threats and bluster will fail to in
timidate the people. The yeomanry of
the country, who are suffering from tax
ation almost beyond endurance, are in
no humor to bo bullied by scaliawags
who favor a Freedmen’s Bureau and a
standing army in the South. They
have sworn in their hearts that these
nuisances must be abated, and they are
in earnest. After Seymour has taken
the oath of office, he will kick the
Freedmen’s Bureau into the sea, order
the sixty thousand troops now in the
South to another field of duty, cut down
all unnecessary expenditures, and once
more lift the office of President to the
dignity that belonged to it before the
Radical trimmers got into power. We
will have war, will we? Try it, if you
dare I Get bottled Ben Butler to take
command of your pie-bald army, and
then look out for your necks, Messrs
Radicals.
Answer, Hypocrite !—The New
York Tribune, of Monday, has a whin
ing article about Gen. Magruder and
Commodore Buchanan getting appoint,
menta under Gov. Swann, of Maryland.
But, Mr. Greeley, how about the mur
derer, Bowen, of South Carolina, who
was a rebel major during the war, and
is now a Radical member of Congress?
And how abou£ Roderick R. Butler, of
Tennessee, wlnS could not take your test
oath, on accouht of his participation in
the rebellion, hut nevertheless occupies
a seat in Congress on the Radical side?
How is it that your party can confer of
fices and honors upon such traitors and
murderers? Answer, thou canting
Pharisee ?
The Democrats of the Third Con
gressional District of Ohio have nomi
nated Hon. O. L. Vallnndighmn for
Congress. Wearegladof this. Mr. Y.
was one of the men who was persecu
ted by the low and infamous Lincoln
administration, and wo are always
pleased to see those men cared for hy
the Democracy. More than this, Mr.
Vallandigliam is among the able men
of the country.
The negroes in Washington are armed
by the Radicals. They march through
the streets with guns loaded with liall
cartridges, and at the slightest provoca
tion fire a platoon of musketry into the
unoffending wayfarers on the sidewalk.
“ Let us have peace.”
P. Gray Meek, editor of the Belle

SOIJTU CAROLINA.
[by Telegraph to Forney’s Press.]
Tlao Legislature.
Columbia, Aug, 17,—Tlio. House passed the
bill puttiug negroes of the State on an equal
footing with the •whites. The negro raerauers
demanded the right to hotel tables, beds, and nil
licensed places. Severn! white Republicans vo*
ted against it, declaring on a question Of race
they must go with thelr'own color. The tax law
passed without opposition to-day. A majority
of the members are too ignorant to under
stand or discuss It. The Stoic is pntcticalli/ bank
rupt, The Governor can raise no lunda. *
The above telegram appeared in For
ney’s Press of the 18th inst. Read it,
fellow-citizens of all parties, and aa you
do so remember that South Carolina,
one of the richest States in the Union,
has been brought to her present con
dition by the Radical “reconstruction
policy.’' “The negro members demand
the right to hotel tables, beds and all li
censed places,” “The tax law passed
without opposition,” but “a majority
of the members are too ignorant to un
derstand or discuss it.” “The Slate,is
bankrupt What a confession is this?
The South Carolina “ Legislature” is
composed of a majority of negroes, who
demand the right to occupy beds and
tables in common with white men and
women, the balance is made up of
“ carpet-baggers,” most of them from
Massachusetts. Is it- surprising that
South Carolina should sink and be
come bankrupt, under the load of
degradation that has been placed upon
her shoulders ? . Such is Radical “recon
struction.” Before next November
this recostruction business will be a
stench in the nostrils of the people, ami
there will be no peace in the land un
til it is buried out of sight in March,
ISO!). It is well for the Democratic par-
ty that these Congressional abomina
tions should have time to ripen their
fruits before the Presidential election,
outrage of which they are the
origin, evert* crime of which they are
the source, will be so many electioneer-
ing agents for Seymour and Blair. The
known opposition of our Presidential
candidates to the hellish policy qf re
construction will be in itself sufficient
to secure the success of the Democratic
ticket. The people of the United
States will never tolerate such a crime
against nature as placing white men
under the heel of negroes, and when
they see the working of that villainous
scheme in its full iniquitous perfection,
their wrath will be as a wasting and con
suming tire. Their pfet scheme of re
construction will be the death of the
party, it win bo another example, of
“ the engineer hoist with his own pe
tard.”
And the Radical journals have the
face to tell the country that these Re-
construction acts must stand. Why?
Because they are part and parcel of an
wiolable Constitution that was rent in
twain to make an opening for them!
Must stand! What! Shall men who
scorned to be bound by laws made by
the patriots of the Revolution, claim
perpetuity for their trumpery legisla
tion ! “ The tyranny of a Nero or a
Caligula,” says a political writer and
deep thinker, “ would be more tolera
ble than an irrevocable law. .Mark,
without reference in the slightest de
gree to its spirif or utility. Simply be
cause it was irrevocable.” Whut would
be have thought of u irrevocable laws’*
framed by men drunk with passion
and crazy with fanatacisin?

Another trick of tyranny, another
swindle, is about to be perpetrated not
only upon the people of the South, b’ut
upon the Northern masses. Thescalla
wags and thieves are determined, if
they can accomplish it, to carry the
Southern States lor the Uniformed
Grant next November.
in the North the electors are to be
voted for by the people, but in tire
South the order is to be reversed. There
the electors are to be appointed by the
Legislatures.
Mark that. They are afraid to go be-
fore the white men of the Southern
States, bound and crippled though they
bo,.and ask their verdict.
Why is this? For the simple reason
that they fear the defeat of the great
Circus-rider and Inebriate. Alabama
and Mississippi, where the white men
triumphed, have taught them a lesson
which they have not been slow to learn.
This, then, is their plan, and it has
already been inaugurated in the Flori
da Legislature, which body lias passed
a bill taking the election of delegates to
the Electoral College from the people
and placing it in that body 1
That’s the style. It is the trick by
which the Fourteenth Amendment, so
called, was passed, that article never har
ing been submitted to the people. But wo
are taking note of these things up here
in the North, and tho hour of retalia
tion, so long delayed, is hastening on
with gigantic strides. There will be a
big account to settle with the carpet
baggers, and we would advise those
who have any regard for their health
to make arrangements for a trip to
some more congenial clime next win
ter. Suppose they try Alaska, Seward’s
new purchase ? It is such an-ice coun
try-just the spot for them—the place
where they’ can keep cool amidst all
their trials and tribulations.
But, seriously, do these jail-birds im
agine that the people will tolerate their
infamous schemes? Do they suppose
that these deviltries will bo permitted
to be carried out’ If they do, they are
the veriest asses that over walked bn
two legs.
We tell them now, and let them take
special note of what we say, that their
so-called Constitution will in our-day of
triumph bo treated asso much waste pa-,
per; that their “ laws” will be tramp
led under foot; that their governments
will be torn to shreds; that the white
men of Florida will rule that State, and
that carpet-baggers and scallawags must
and shall give way to the verdict of the
people.

In our lust wo published the official

E. J. Ilaldeman, Esq., of this county,
was unanimously nominated as the
Democratic candidate for Congress.—

in a manner creditable to himself

Whatever influence we can exercise, in
iris behalf, personally or through our
columns, shall bo cheerfully and freely

than useless, to refer to tire dereliction
of certain delegates in the late County
Convention. Mr. Haldeman has been
declared the nominee of the party, and
as such lie is entitled to its support. As
we said iu a former article, he is emi
nently qualified, both by education and
experience, for this very responsible po
sition. For many years ho has been a
zealous deiender of Democratic princi
ples, and now that the party is to
confer upon him an honor and a respon
sibility, wo feel satisfied he will not
abuse the trust that will bo committed
to liis hands.' From our Democratic co
temporarics of the District we select the
following extracts, as an evidence of
Mr. Haldemnn’s popularity as a candi

H. U. G's “Economy.” —General
Grant’s little sun rides to school every
day on a pony fed and cared for by the
Government. The boy’ is followed at a
respectful di.-tance by a Lmited States
soldier on another horse, owned, fed
and groomed by the government, who
assists the child to alight and then leads
back the pony. Mrs. Grant’s carriage
is driven by a servant who is paid out
of the Treasury, and her. horses are fed
with forage paid for out of the Treasu
ry. All of which are specimens of that
Radical simplicity and “ economy”
promised upon the election of 11. TJ.
Grant to the I’residency.

The Paymaster General estimates
that, in addition to the enormous
amounts already expended, the sum of
$412,000 will bo necessary to execute
the' reconstruction acts for the year end
ing June 30,1869. This is of course ex
clusive of the vast sums sqandered in
paying tho troops, furnishing the 'sup
' plies, &c„ all of which the people have
to pay to establish negro supremacy
and perpetuate Radical misrule.
$12,000,000. —Tins is what was expended
on the Freedmen’s Bureau last year, for
the support of thousands of lazy negros
in the South. And who pays it ? The
farmer, the mechanic and the laborer
of the North. Every time you buy a
hat, a coat, shoes, or anything else,
you pay a part of these twelve millions.
Seymour is pledged to ABOLISH
this nuisance. Vote for Seymour.
Yesterday the New York Herald
repeated its announcement that the
next XTesidential election will go
against the Radicals. “In the North,”
said that journal, “ the vote against the
Republicans will be very heavy.”
Nearly every Conservative meeting
in the South has been interrupted by
negroes, instigated by the cowardly
Yankee carpet-baggers. “ Let us have
peace.” i
The Radical Governor of Louisiana
demands military aid, and Brownlow
wants negro troops to help carry the
State. “ Let us have peace.”
Grant man—l tell you, sir, Repub
licanism is looking up.
Seymour man—Well, Radicalism is
so flat on its back that it can’t look any
other way.

That Mr. Randolph will be triumph

sey, is a foregone conclusion. His Rad
ical competitor, John I. Blair, is an
extremist of the Wendel Phillips
school, and was nominated more be
cause of his wealth and the belief that
ho would “ shell out” freely, than be
cause he was deserving. That money
sometimes —too often, wo fear—effects
nominations in both parties, is an un
deniable fact, but in this case Blair’s
money cannot save him; Randolph
wilt be the next Jersey Governor, and
the Stale is sure for Horatio Seymour
and Frank P. Blair.
* The' Southern carpet-baggers who
arrived in 'Washington in time to be ad

manded pay for the entire session, and
with an audacity unparalleled, save In
the workings of Radical reconstruction,
clamored vocifeiously for a recognition
of their loyalty to Radieal infamy, by
bleeding the public treasury. But the
modest (?) demands of the loyal car
pet-bagger was too big a dose for the
congregated mass of mortal ideas to
swallow. It wouldn’t go down, it
was too near the election, don’t you see ?
The proposed steal was a little too much,
even for Radical Congressmen. It
would be found out by the awful Cop
perheads and Rebels, you know. So
the carpet-ha* nuisance, representing a
few cornfield niggers who don’t uwu
any properly, and never pay any taxes,
was delicately snubbed, aud their in
tense loyally was forced to be satisfied
with pay from the lime of their elec
tion.
Modest unassuming bagger! Sweet
scented essence of loyalty! Beauiilul
representative of the reconstructed nig*
ger! You are too modest by half.
Changes in Ohio.—At a Democrat
ic meeting in Fayette county, Ohm, on
Saturday week, the principal speakers
were Judge R. M. Briggs and Col. John
M, Connell. Both these gentlemen
have heretofore been staunch Republi
cans, but they cannot sanction the usur
pations, the corruption and the unpara
lelltd extravagance of the Radical Con
gress which styles It-eir trie Govern
ment. All over the country the same
thing is going on; -everywhere many of
the more honest Republicans are pledg
ing themselves to support Seymour and
Blair. Grant will be beaten worse than
Scott was, if there is no abatement in
the tide of popular feeling.
A New Campaign Song.—The poeti
cal editor of the Bridgeport Standard,
publishes the following stanza of a new
campaign song:
Come friends of freedom, free and strong,
Once more unfn.l your banner.
Come listen whilst I Sing a song,
Of’Lyssei G.nnt the Tanner.
The author evidently- was exhausted
after such an effort, and that sheet fails
to give its readers tho concluding stan
za. It is as follows :
This Jolly tanner keeps bis hide
Welt soaked—if half be true
And Democrats will tan It well
Before NovombeTs through.
In Mai.no tho Radical assessors erased
the name of an honest, industrious la
boring white man' from the list of vo
ters, he having received aid from the
public to the amount of two dollars’
worth of wood, while his family was
sick, during a cold winter, when there
was no work to be obtained. Ho was a
pauper and could not vote. But in the
South thousands of negroes are fed,
clothed, and supported by tho govern
ment, and yet they all vote. They are
American citizens. Will white men
submit to such insults upon their man
hood? •

"That man deserves to be a slave who would

The Greensburg, Indiana, Expositor ,
heretofore a radical abolition sheet, has
declared for Seymour and Blair. It
says that‘‘the German Republicans of
Indiana are abandoning that - party by
thousands and enrolling themselves
qmong the supporters of Seymour and
Blair.” They see how the wind blows
and act wisely. •
The Radical journals are Just now
“ bothered entirely” to answer the fol
lowing question: If a Radical adminis

month more than it can realize by the
present enormous taxation, how long
will it take a Radical administration to
pay a public debt amounting to billions?

THE VOICE OF INDUSTRY.
Letter From Donald MoKoy. tlio Orcat Ship
balldor, Iu Ibvor of£qanl Taxation.
Boston, Aug % 18GS.
Dear Sm: As you well know, tho
bill for the relief of the shipbuilding in
terest, by a drawback on dutiable articles
entering Into the construction of now
tilling, has been brought up in Congress,
tabled, and the matter virtually ended,
and the hope of renewing our commer
cial marine and bringing it up to its for
mer standard is about abandoned. Un
der the present unfair system of taxation
the prices of material and labor for ship
building and other mechanical industries
cannot behieduced until fair play is giv
en by an-Tjquality of taxation on all prop
erly, and particularly In taxing govern
ment bonds, and it is a delusion to ex
pect a general revival of business until
The enterprise of the United States in
commerce, heretofore so largely prevail
ing and known the worldover.ls fast ratl
in gaway. Many of our former largo ship
owners, and some of them were my cus
tomers, tell me they prefer to invest their
money in government securities, which
are exempt from taxation, and thug re
ceive a better rate of interest for the year
through them than from an Investment
of an equal amount iu commercial prop
erty subject to taxation. Tho people are
constantly flattering themselves
some miraculous change for the better
will take place in the mechanical indus
tries, but cannot say how or when it will
take place. My opinion is it will occur
when an equality in taxation takes place.
Tax government bonds as other property,
and ” bettdt times” would soon follow.—
Judging from my intimate knowledge of
the voice of the mechanical classes in my
employ and employed In this .vicinity,
men of stability and intelligence, both
home and foreign, Republicans and
Democrats, are a Unit on tho subject ot
having equaltaxallou, am say they are
deteimined at the next election to sup
port the natty platform equalizing justly
the burden of luxation. The editors of
some of our papers, I noticed, were sur
mised recently at the mention in Con
gress of tho taxing of the interest on
heads, saying it was “ against the will ot
the people.” If these editors would vis
it my premises and the immediate vicini
ty 1 would be happy to introduce them
iuseveral hems to over 1000 workmen,
mechanics and laborers, and, with the
exception of about one iu a hundred,
they are determined to vote for the par
tv at the next election that adopts taxa
tion of bonds equally with other proper?
tv, and the party doing this will obtain
the support of the oppressed working
men of tho country. In my opinion the
cry of “ party” is fast dying out, ana it Is
a common remark now made for each
one at the nest election to look out for
his own interest. Give tho _ people at
large fair play, and business will soon re
vive. Ronald McKay.
Mr. Donald McKay is the greatest,
shipbuilder of the country. He is no polio
liciun, aud has. never taken an activ
part with any political parly. He looks
at the question from a purely business
point of view. We commend it, there
fore, especially to public attention.
What he says applies with equal power
to all other business enterprises. They
are all injured by this iniquitous exemp
tion from taxation of government bonds.
Houses are not built any more than ships,
.because the capitalists prefer to have
property that is exempt from taxation. —
Carpenters, masons and laborers are all
; most injuriously affected by this discrimi
nation in favor of the bonded privileged
class. Capital invested in bonds is dead
capital, and gives no one employment.
The Democratic Convention at New
York put itself upon record most distinct
ly iu favor of the taxation of bonds. We
quote from it:
“ 4 Equal lana.iou of every species of prop
erty according io Its real value, including gov
ernment Ponds and other public securities,
To this platform, our candidate for
President, Mr. Seymouf, has given in his
adherence. He had previously, in pub
lic speeches, also advocated an equal aud
uniform system of taxation. The Radi
cals are opposed to taxation of the bonds.
They exempted them originally, and
are still in favorof continuing the policy.
Mr. Hiram Grant is the bondholder’s
candidate, he having been nominated
fiist by a convention of rich bondholders
in New York, and he is-bound by ties of
gratitude to protect the exclusive interest
of his particular fiiends.
THE PUBLIC DEBT.
An Increase of Over 853,000,000 In One
Sloulli.
From Juno to July the Public
Debt rose from $2,007,827,812 to
$2,060,833,392,' or more than $53,000,000
in One month.
At this rate, when will tho debt ho
paid ? It could and might, withlionost
management and common sense, have
been very much decreased. But
wholesale robbery and plunder have
been, tho rule, n»™B '“t tm-oo
years there has been collected under
tho Internal Revenue law and in the
custom-house the- gigantic sum of One
Billion, Two Hundred Million Dollars 1
And still tho debt goes on increasing.—
After deducting all payments of Inte
rest on this crushing Debt, still there
remains Eight Hundred Millions to he
accounted for 1 Eight Hundred Mil
lions squandered in three years—years,
too, of profound peace!
tSyPlorida is tho paradise of chrpet
baggery. The people of that State are
oppressed by a usurpation as hateful as

Yours, very rspectfall^
Let It bo noted, now, by every candid
reader, that Andrew Johnson has main
tained, and General Grant has deserted,
this policy. When wo say it was the
policy of Lincoln, wo mean that as Pre
sident he gave expression to it. It was
the policy of tho wnole people; it was
tbo policy of all the Democrats and all
the Republicans, and only tho clique,
then small, of Radicals dissented from
it Tlu*v showed their weakness by
nominating Fremont, at Cleveland in
180-1, against Lincoln and that yeiy
poliev The nomination was a total
failure.. It was some time before the
Radicals captured Grant. It was not
till they held out lo him tho glittering
bait of a- Presidential nomination that
ho stumbled into their toils. He was,
for a while, an obsequious follower of
Johnson. He kicked Stanton out of
tho War OHice, and took tho place of an
ail interim. Before tho Congressional
Committee his testimony was very
damaging to the Radicals. He answer
ed as follows to the questions they ask
ed him:
o Do vou recollect the proclamation that la
called the ••North Carolina proclamation?”
A Yes, sir; that, was too first one published
giving a Slate government. ,
Bv Air. Woodbridgo— Q. I understand you to
say that Mr. Lincoln, prior to h»s assasslnotlon.
had inaugurated a policy Intended to restore
?
q! You were present when tho subject was bo*
f °A resent, I think, tw’ro before the ns
slnatlon of Mr. Lincoln. wh6n a plan was read,
O. I want to know whether the plan adopted
bv Mr. Johnson was substantially the plan
which had been Inaugumted by Mr Lincoln as
the basis for hlsfutu.o action?
A. Yes, sir, substantially, I do not know but
that U was verbatim the sumo.
Q. I suppose the very paper of Mr. Lincoln was
A.°l sliould think so. I think that the very
naner which T heard read t,wico while Mr. Lin
coln was President was the one which was car
ried rl"ht through. ,
By ftfr. Churchill—Q,. What paper was that?
A The North Caiolinap'-oclamatlon,
O You staled that the North Carolina procla
mation was a continuation of the project submit
ted by Mr. Lincoln. 1 wish to Inquire of you
whether you over compared them to ascertain
whether they wore the same.or not?
A No sir; I never compared them. X tools
them to ho the v6ry same papers. The papers
wore substantially the same, if not the very
same.
The Radicals began then to think
they would not catch Grant. They
opened upon him with nil their batter
ids. Theodore Tilton informed the
world how Grant had been drunk in
the streets on Sunday; Wendell Phil
•lips told how the redoubtable hero fell
before “a whisky bottle;” -Greely
spread the facts on the wings of the
New York Tt'ibune. Whether alarmed
by these novel missels which the Radi
cals hurled at him, or tempted with the
prize which, with the other band, they
hold out to him, Grant yielded. In the
Radical impeachment plot, he threw
the whole weight of his military office
to sway the minds of the Senatorial
judges to a conviction. Thus he viola
ted every principle of propriety and
honor; he deserted his own convic
tions, if any ho have; ho proved him
self a fit tool for the Radicals. Verily,
ho has his reward—their nomination.
Forney was able to say of him, “ he is
a Radical candidate on a Radical plat
form.” — Age.

are being made by exhibitors with great

old quids of tobacco, pnd dilapidated tooth
pics beneath its trail; and when some
poor wight treads thereupon to find his
feet rolled suddenly from under him, and
rhis oar saluted with ” brute” from cherry

change suddenly. It would bo a good
