of tho Columbia County Republican stripe.
Come to Life. Only a fow months
ago tho Abolition presses rang with tho
cry that tho Dcmocratlo party, as a party,
was dead and buried. If this was true at
tho time, they must admit that tbcro has

moots in January, will elect Jcsso D.

which is tho case of John Wilkes, who
was repeatedly expelled by tho British
House of Commons, and as often roturned
by his constituents.
t-GooD Times. Tho "good times"
promised by tho Abolitionists aro now be
ing realized by tho mechanics and working
men of this town, in tho advanced prices
domanded for all articles of family consum
ption. Coffee has increased four cents per
pound within a few days, and now sells at
thirty-six cents, making it a luxury in
which tho poor cannot afford to indulge
Tho samo may be said of sugar and mo
lasses. Buttor is up to twenty cents per
pound, eggs ono shilling per dozen, and
other necessaries of life in tho same pro
portion. Cotton goods cf all kinds, which
used to sell at a shilling per yard, now
command trcbol that price. Boforo the
advent of tho present Abolition adminis
tration poor women could obtain an ox
ccllcnt calico dress for about twolvo shil
lings ; now trebel that sum will not pur
chaso even an ordinary print dress. In
short everything is going up to starvation
prices, while thero is no advance of the
wages of tax-burdened working men.

was not tho Administration of Iluohanan
against which the people of tho South re
belled, it was against the election of Abra
ham Lincoln, whom thoy believed to be
an Abolitionist ofthe "highor law" order,
and consequently President Buchanan was
in no wi3o responsible for cither the acts
of Abolitionists or Secessionists. If the
Abolitionists could havo succocded in for
ring tho Administration of Buchanan into
a war with the South, thoy would then
havo endeavored to havo made the Demo
crats responsible for ah tho oonscquenees
of the war. It is usolcss for tho fanatical
leaders of a fanatical party to endeavor to
shirk tho responsibility of their own con

For the Columbia Democrat .
Orani:vii.le, Nov. 21, 1802.
Mr, Editor : Quito an unimual cx-
eitomont was created in our littlo town
this morning in consequence of a rumor
that our Post Ulhcc was to bo removed.
It came about assuddouly upon us as did
tho removal of Gen, McClollan. It was
an unlookcd for occurrence and it is very
doubtful whether any ono except the par
tics conueetod with tho affair dreamed that
such a thing would occur, as Win. Fritz
is a very conservative man, aud was claim
ed by the so-called Uniou party, as a sound
union man.
Mr. Fritz has held tho office for the
last ton years, and during tbo whole period
no fault has been found wilh him, in rela
tion to his official duties. When tho pros
cnt administration camo into power, the
Republican party as it was then called held
a convention, and concluded to leave the
Post Office remain under tho chargo of
Mr. Fritz, becauso ho was a good umon
man. From that period until the present
everything moved along smoothly.
But thero is a screw loose somoivherc
now; as to tho causo of bis lcnio' nl vo
aro left in tho dark ; in fact it is a very
sneaking and cowardly procccdurc, nnd
must havo been contemplated and exeou
ted in tho dark, probably by a few Knights
of tho Golden Uirele
We aro loft to conjecture the causo of
his removal. It most certainly could not
have been because ho votod For L. iiazar
us for ltcpresontativc ; nor because he vo
ted for K. F. Clark, J5-n., ior Uongrcss
That would most certainly indicate that Ilo
was a good anion man in tho estimation
of the uo-partv party J hey certainly
would not remove him tor taking an active
part in putting down the rebellion, and vo
ting for those whom ho considered the most
conservative
What in tho world can bo the wonderful
cause? We must think again, it 13 a diffi
cult question to solve. JNow 1 think wo
havo hit the nail on tho head ; wo are ablo
to eivo the great and groivous charg
against Mr Fritz. Olc of tho board be
longing to tho no-party party made a great
discovery on election day. What was it
Ho discovered that Mr. lritz was a no
party man. Why says ho, "he voted but
one short tickct.nl! thercst wore long ones,"
(meaning Democratic tiokcts I suppose.)
No party man, and his no-party friends
could not stand that no how, they camo to
the conclusion that ho was disloyal, and
that they could live without liim, aud that
he was no longer worthy to hold tho Post
Office.
In accordance with their idea of the
matter Mr. Fritz has dono a grcvious
wrong, ho merely practiced the principles
they preach. Wo may safely say that tho
removal of Mr. Fritz, is duo to his voting
those long tickets. It appears that tho no
party party wants a party man to tako
charge of tho office, tor God's sako lot
them have it for a oouplo years, if they can
find auy balm there to heal tho shattered
remnants of their despicable party, let
them do so.
Wc must infer from the present circum
stance, that tho no-party party has at last
become a party, they found that tho result
of tho lato elections wcro not very promis
ing in tho future, for their no party uniou
Eebenio,and henco thoy havo removed their
hypocritical union masks, and look about
as thuv did in 1800 when they oarried
banners with but sixteen stars inscribed
favorable. Anxious motliors and helpless
wivu with tears, tremblingly inquire
whether their sons and liuibands nro still
safe. These nro not times of former days.
Tho wholo nation North and South is thus
in sympathy for thoir friends, praying for
succcsi. and n vicorous proaecutiou of tlio
war, that peaco may onco moro bo cstab-
ished, and conlidonoo restored.
But wo hesitato that tho Southern Con
federacy will receive a recognition, and
doubt too, that tho Abolitionists shall ac
complish their selfish ends, whilo tho rob-
cl arc contending tor a coutedoracy, tue
iVbolitionists for emancipation, counscation
tholt and robbery. Domoeraoy is con
tending for the Union as it was, tho Con
stitution as it is, and tho 'institutions of all
tho States unimpaired, waging a political,
but safb war, against two grent tectional
parties, with encouraging prospocts ot suc
cess. J his war is waged against tue iw
olition party to its utttor extinction by tho
Domoeraoy with that powcrtul weapon,
not tho bavonet or cannon, but tho ballot-
box; leaving secession die a natural death
because tho one can not exist without tho
other.
The groans and pangs of death of tho
bolition nartv. already shako tlio North
from the coutro to its circumfercuco under
the lamentable doom, that thero is no res
urrection. And Recession if need bo will
e pierced with tho sword to hurry it on
and meet the samo fate.
Tbo time is not far distant when all
men wi'l realize that white men arc still
better than the "nigger," nnd tho ''irro
pressiblo" conflict will also perish at the
end of this Administration.

fluently asked what has beeoni3 of tho
case of the persons arrested in this bor
ough a few months since by the Cliic
of Police, under the tyranical order o
the War Dcpartim nt, which wave linens
for depriving innocent men of their lib
cities 1 We answer by saying, that E. 15
Chase. Lsq., is prosecuting his busincs;
as District Attorney ot tho county : Jl
Kiilp is nssidimiK in his aitcntion lu th
duties of Kcgistev of Wills, and Mr. Ir,
Uavcnpnrt is quietly pursuing hit voca
tion at his homo in Plymouth. Nonco
these men have ever been apprized o
their offence, nor have they been per
milted to face their aecusors. They
stind among us as monuments of a politi
cal persecution, such as an Abolition
Administration alono could inaugurate
the victims of a petty spirit which their
cowardly persecutors dare not openly
take the responsibility of. We under
stand Mr. Rickets, the then Chief ol
Police, has expressed his regret at the
part he played in tho disgraceful arrest,
in allowing himself to become tho agent
through which such ''small business"
was transacted.
We learn that a prosecution is about
being instituted against Mr. Rickets, as
the oilier who made the arrests, for false
imprisonment. Luzcrnt Union.
