POLITICAL INTELLIGENCE. ee POLITICS IN SOUTH CAROLINA, Zetter trom Governor Orr on the Situation— He Opposes the Reform Union Movement, and Goes for the Republican Nominees, {From the Columbia (8. 0.) Phosntx, August 16.) CouumBrA, 8. C., August 15, 1870, To THE Eprrors ov TAB PH@NIX:— My Dear Srrs—I enclose you herewith a commu- ication expressing my opinions of the present po- litical situation in South Carolina. The publication of it would be gratifying to me if you have space in your columns, 1au, very respectfully, yours, &e., i JAMES L. ORR, Mr. Eprror—In response to inquiries addressed to me by my friends, iu jetiers and otherwise, I shall p very briefly to state my opmions on the politioal issues presented to the people im the can- vass NOW progressing in this State, Li vote lor Scott aud Ransler, republican nominees for Governor and Lieutenant Governor. 2. I cannot vote for tue nominees of the Union reform party, because, in my judgment, the purpose which they propose to accomplish 49 entirely iupracuicable, and the nominations made vy their convention will not only accom. pliah no results, but the consequences of the Romina On anu © VASK may, be pernicious. inhe aVOW' urpose of the convention et re- Jorma io the aduninistration of the State govern- ment. In some of its departments retrenchment and reform are doubtless greatly needed—some of its oMecesare flied by incompetent and rough men, who spould be driven from the places they occupy. More economy in the @ppropriation and disburse- ment of pubile money should be practised. How are these oljects to beatiained? The only reforms in the State goverument that can be suc- cessfully accomplisued, at least for many years to come, must be vy anu through the republican Highs and tte ons. ‘they have control of all the departments of the State government, and have a majority of more than thirty thousand voters to pi nerve and perpetuate that control, So long as opi Party, disavowing republicanism, is im the State io defeat and displace them, so long will party Lig and appeals to party appliances preserve its unity and su- premacy. If we Want an illustration of the al and constancy of party organization in secu! well-perpetuation, look to the State of Ver- mont, for thirty years prior to the war, when it annually rolled up its 25,000 or more majority for the whig party, despice ail the eiforts of the democracy, aided most of the ume by federal influence aud patronace. When you attempt to reform a party hy destroying it—wbich is the present mode of reform adopted—the iirst law ol nature, welf-preservation, appeals to each member of that party to it the new move- ment and aveit its destruction. Such an an- tagoniam bas another most baletul influence.

The colored vote 1s, and has been irom 1867, nearly a anit for the republican ‘ty, ana have they acted unwisely or uupatriotically in their ardent devotion to the republican pariy? Suppose our conditions, the white race, were reversed; that we and our ancestors had been slaves for 200 years—that a party had made war to give us freedom—that tt had succeeded—that the same party had pertlled its own supremacy py guarantecing to us our civil righis, and, above all, tae baliot—the effectual weapon of preserving those riyhis—had been secured to us by solemn constitutional enactment by the same party, and we were, in the iace of all this, appealed to by those who had opposed all these great boons to jola with them in overthrowing the party of our deliverance and — redemp- on, would any white maa for a moment tolerate with patience any such 4 proposition? Would it not be most ungracetul ior the coiored man to renounce such @ party, wheu tis very existence is now threat- ened? Some of fis leaders, white and colored, may be incompetent, corrupt, treacherous; but he would exhibita strange obliviousiess if he would consent to Jon ap antagonistic organization to destroy his own party, even beiore he nad attempted to retorm it. The relative popuiauon of wiite and colored are 8 three to four. aud te vote may be assumed to be the same. ‘The coiored majority 13 more than 25,000. Assi that the great mass of the colored voters wiil sustain the repubitcan parcy and the foregoing views, med by the experience of the last five years, does i not conclusively show, if there 1s dishonesty and peculation departments of the. State government that it cannoc be reformed by a retorm party + Don’t the figures show that the votes are too nume- Tous on the other side? ‘This view of 25,000 majority 4s on the assumption that every white man in tae State votes the reform ucket; but when the ballots come to be cast it will be found that many white re- publicans in Souiu Carolina— more whites ‘Who will vote the republican than blacks who will vote the reform ticket. if Thave shown that reform cannot be accom- plished through we reform party, it devolves on me stow how not ouiy reiorm is to be accompilshea, but how a large iniusion of the inte:ligence and vir- tao of the white Trace can exercise fis just and legiti- mate influence in the counsels oi the State. it must be done through the orgauization of the republican party. ‘Ihe wise al experienced in good faith must go into the republican party, acquire a fair gud legitumate influence, ald in se- lecting the most competent and deserving men for iticlal positions 1 ihe republican ranks, and when vonfidence has been attained, by g faith and sincerity, then the highest intelligence and virtue willbe revoked oy the repubitcan convention for services in the offices of trust and responsibility. ‘The greatest ovstucie in accepting this suggestion by many conscieutious men who Dhve heretofore belonged to democratic and other organizations was removed by the nominations and plattorm uf the late reform convention. The distinguished nominee of that convention for Governor 13 # repab- ican; his associate for Lieutenant Governor, no less distinguished, was formerly a democrat, The convention Was cull} matnly of geutlemen who formerly belonged to the democratic party. The platform adopted, in essential feature, was re- publican; it accepted and proposed to sustain the fiteenth constitutional amendment, and made no pouleal issue with the repub:ican party except re- tor! ‘To vote for either of the nominees for Gov- ernor i. to vote for a republican; to sustain either of the platforms 1s to sustain the leading features of republican principies. How, then, can a voter sus- tain the reform party—its nominee and plattorm— ‘aa say his devotion to principle precludes him from joining the republican party ¥ Before the convention met many persons objected to uniting wiih the republican party because it in- volved an abaudonment of political principle—demo- cratic or other, Such as went into the convention, und such a8 now sustain its action have broken down that barrier, aud can very quietly and very conscientiously walk into the republican ranks— especially as every one of the old anti-war issues be- tween the democratic and republican parties have passed away or been seitied. If no substantial difference exists in the princtples ofthe republican and reform parties, how much more could have been accomplished through the republican organization at the October election, to reform abuses, than will be accomplished by the reform party. Suppose one hundred of the most intelligent white citizens in each connty had gone {n good faith and with frank sincerity ‘into the re- publican organization, can 1t be douvted that their intelligence anu moral strencth would have secured honest nominees? If members in the last lature were corrupt, would not suck an influence have defeated their renomination? Who can doubt ity This would have been effective and practical reform, and it would have gone a great way to break down that distrust of the colorea republican felt towards the native white. A distrust which Was at first even natural, and which was greatly in- creased in 1868—the first election in Which the whites participated after reconstruction—when the Diucks Were attempted to be persuaded to vote for 4 party whose avowed principles looked to their dis- ftranchisement, isit strange that the colored republican should be cautious and adhere with pertinacity to his party? Can we justly hope to exercise that political Anguence over him which we now constantly do in all the other relations and duties of life until he 1s convinced that we intend in good faith to protect him equally with the whites, not only in his: proj » but in all his civil and political ts? If the whites of the State heretofore adneringto the democratic party have renounced its principles and consented to vote for @ republican for Governor and for a republican platform, why should they allow mere prejudice of @ party or name to keep them aloof from an organization in which, if they enter, they can justiy claim and enjoy the confidence of the colored mau and-effect. the reforms needed, and elevate into the service of the State men of the Aighest intelligence and virtue. The nominee of tne republican party for Lieuten- ant Governor 13 @ col man. Does not thelr num- ber of voters entitle thay race to nition in the omictal positions of the state, when they nt a mau qualified to flil the position he seeks? Is such a nomiuation 80 Obnoxious as that the ticket should be rejected Was not the name of a colored man pre- sented to the reform convention for Lieutenant Governor, and did not leading white delegates of that convention urge the nomination of a colored man? And why was @ colored man not nominated? the proceedings of the convention show that It was vecause the Mame was withdrawn by a colored man, -My conclusion, therefore, is that the tntelligence of the white race in the State can never be made of any avail in influencing ihe management of its governmental affairs unt it secures the confidence, politically, of the colored race; that the colored race ig devoted to the re- publican party unalterably, and will continue so a8 Tong asthe organization exists, and that such de- votion ig the natuial and women result of many kindnesses to them; that the old issues between the democratic and republican parties are settled or superseded; bank, tariff, internal improvement, &c., are DO em living issues, and the aMliation with the republican party on existing issues in- volvesg« sacrifice of principles, Thaé< chis eet question was doubtful before, the platrm nominees of the late reform con- vention Temoves every obstacle in the way of those who Were delegates and now support its action in South Carolina, That having practically adopted its principles, wis- dom admonuunes, espectaliy the whive race, to enter @nd affiliate witn whe republican party, acquire in- Nuence with its members, and through them correct abuses and perfect reiorms, That the antagonistic po- sition of the reform pare, not only to the corruptiuns and abuses of the republicans, but to the existence of the party itself, not only pene all hope of enlisting its” members under their banner, but forces them in thelr campaign to look more sel(-preservauion than to any corruption or misman- agement of its members, and to that extent 18 a serl- us injury to the State, That, notwithstanding the fact that just cause of complaint may eaist against the republican party for sins of omission and commission, they have done much to ameliorate the condition of the white people of the State; ameliorations which the Legis- lature of the State, in 1865 and 1865, refused to rant, That party has secured a homestead to the ead of every family. ‘Thousands of women and children in this State would have been houseless and homeless, naked and starved, but for the beneficent provistons of the homestead enactment, Every voter thus protected should re- member, when he comes to cast his vote, who fur- nishes a shelter, in sunshine and storm, over the heads of his wife and children, despite the stale claims of heartiess creditors.

Governor Hoffman has, by proclamation, ordered an election to be held in the fwenty-eighth Congres- sional district oa the 8th of November next to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Noah Davis. The Republtcan County Convention in Portland yesterday adopted @ resolution declaring Governor Joshua L. Chamberlain the choice of the convention for the United States Senatorship, to be elected by the Legislature in the piace of Lot M. Morrill. In the Eleventh Indiana district the democrats have nominated S, 8. Anthony for Congress. In the Eleventh Ohio district the republicans have renominated John T. Wilson for Congress. In the Fifteenth Ohio district the republicans have nominated William B. Sprague for Congress. In the Fourth Obio district tne republicans have nominated W. B. McClurg for Congress. The Boston Journat has the following in regard to the Wendell Phillips prohibition movement:— President baker, of the Prohibitory Convention yesierday, had to put the best face possible on the Movement, and 80, as is the custom with all presid- ing oflicera on such oc sasions, he predicted the suc- cess of the party this fail! His hearers of course wok the wish for the father of the thought and made the proper allowance. The most enthustastic pro- hibitionists at the close of the convention thought it possible that they might cast ten thousand votes for their State ticket, and indicated that they would be satisfied with that result as a beginning. G, 8. Orth, now represenilug the Lafayette dls- trict and who deciines # renomination, takes the stump in Indiana, Mrs. Adela McKeon is an independent candidate for Congress from California. A correspondent says:—“I was in Greenville on election day and saw ex-President Johnson vote the conservative ticket, It is a mistake to suppose his health is bad. He is in fine health and spirits. He stopped on the streets and talked with his friends in @ quict, farmer-like manner, and seems to be very popular with all classes of people. He {s pressed to allow his name to be used for Congress, but he has refusad up to this time. It is believed he could be easily elected.” A Western paper says the democracy of the Sixth district of Iowa are going to try the old “people's party’ trick this fall. These “people” will meet at Fort Dodge on the 80th of Angust. Jack Orr will bury that movement with a majority of 9,000 votes. The Democratic State Central Committee has issued a circular to the democrats of Missouri, giv- ing their reasons for recommending that no aemo- cratic State ticket be put in the fleld next fall. The comunittee, however, urge the election of as many democrats as possible to tue Legislature, but in no case, where they have no candidate, to vote for any one not publicly pledged in favor of removing ali suffrage restrictions. | Bill Lansing, Bob Stewart and Larry Kilnam are | anxious to supersede John C.

Arrival of Bishop McFarland in Providence— Serenade by the Hibernian Socicty. (From the Providence Journal, August 18.] Probably no ecclesiastic of the Catholic Church in the United States is held im greater esteem by his flock than the Right Reverend Bishop McFarland. During Wie years he has been bishop of the diocese of Hartford he has endeared himself alike to the priests and people, and he is justly respected by those of different faith, Tne duties of his adminis- tration somewhat impaired the Bishop's health, but | we are happy to learn that during his absence te has improved. The Bishop readily responded to the call of the Pope to attend the Keumentcal Counctl and took part in the proceedings up to the time of the adoption of the dogma of tnfallibility. Alter the adoption of the dogma a num- ber of the Americ bishops, among them Bishop McFarland, took their departure for home. When it was ascertained here that the Bishop was to come home this month the Catholics of Prove dence and vicinity determined to manifest tneir pleasure at his return by giving him a public recep- Uon, Aconvention of the ditferent Catholic socie- ties of this city and vicinity was called, and arrange- ments made for giving the Bishop, on his return, a grand welcome demonstration. Fifteen societies ‘Were represented at the convention, tweive of which voted to take part in the reception. Mr, Thomas F. Carroll, of the Sts, Peter aud Paul's T. A. Society, ‘was elected Chicf Marshal for the occasion, and each society was insirucied to furnish to him a mounted aid. No less than #1x bands of music have been engaged for the occasion. As soon as it was aunounced yesterday that Bishop McFarland would arrive last evening a Special meeting of the Hibernian Benevolent Sick and Burtal society was held in the afternoon, and it Was resolved that the soclety serenade Bishop McFarland, at his residence in the evening, At eight o'clock the society aasembied at thelr hall, 29 eybosset street, and notwithstanding the short Notice fully 200 members were present. At half. oe eight the ey ey in line, and headed by jhe American band, D, W. Reeves leader, marched Up Weybosset street, through Dorrance, up West- minster into High, throug! Fenner into Pond, hait- ing at the episcopal residence. The band here Parias vices: propriate to the occasion, which, hea Hulshed, Bishop McFarland appearea at the | door and after the cheering of the assemblage had , subsided, spake substantially as follows;— } My Kinp Farenpg:—I return you my sincere thanks | for thisjovation, which, I am'sure, Was not prompted by any personal motive, but given as evidence of your faith and Catholic spirit. You have come to see me on sy return from the Holy City, in which assembled that t gathering Of prelates of the Catholic Charch, As I shali soon, probably Sunday, meet you in the church, I shall have more to say to you. “Again, kind friends, | thank you, At the conclusion of tie Bishop’s femarks the band Played appropriate selections, among which were “St, Patrick’s Day” and ‘*7ne Wearing of the Green.” The latge crowd present repeatedly cheered, and, alter the playing of a few airs by the band, the soci- ety formed into line again and marched back to their hall, where they were dismissed.

WALL Srrmer, } Taurapay, August 16—6 P, M. NATURAL HISTORY, ‘The several markets here were mostly noticeable to-day for their entire absence of special features and complete lack of interest, This even is saying too much in thé way o% parscular desoription, such having been their condition for several days past. It haa been before noticed here how this stagnation 1sacommon circumstance every year at this time, When 80 many men more familfar than Van Am- burgh with some of the most dangerous of beasts which they affect, vary their zoological studiea by seeking knowledge of one more ferocious and treacherous than belongs nere, in fighting whom they find @ substitute for the excitement which a sort of informal truce on the part of the milder mannered brates of the street deprives them of. But beyond that it is certain that the market, having been tuned, as it were, to the war note. 13 paralyzed by the tn- completeness of the news recetved of the situation of the diferent belligerents, Of course, in a general way, the larger number of dealers, strongly leavened with Germans, accept the despatches as conveying intelligence of continued Prussian successes, while there are others who place a different interpretation upon them, and sustain themselves by much force ol argument, The result necessarily is an indisposi- tion to trade, and, in the absence of transactions, a weak feeling in the m arkets. GOLD OFF. Gold declined to-day to 116},, upon a firmer feel- ingin the London market, both in respect to con- sols and bonds, The following table shows the prin- cipal prices:— 10 A. M. i ILA, M. 116% 12 M, + 116% 1PM. - 1:85 P.M ‘116g & 1185, Gold loans were made at 1 to 6 per cent for carry- ing and exceptionally fat for borrowing. The ope- rations of the Gold Exchange Bank were as fol- lows:—Gross clearings, $47,953,000; gold balances, $1,252,243; currency balances, $1,484,330. FOREIGN EXCHANGE continues dull and steady at subjotned quotations, Sterling, franca and other continental bills are merely nominal, but the following are brokers’ rates.—Sterling, sixty days, commercial, 108% a 10034; good to prime bankers’, 1094; a 109%; Dankers’ rates, short sight, 1105; a 110%; Paris, sixty days, 6.13% a 6.1234; short signt, 5.0734 a 6.06%; Antwerp, 5.13% a 6.1234; Switzerland, 5.13% a 5.1234; Hamburg, 36 a 87; Amsterdam, 41}¢ @ 4194; Frankfort, 42 a 4234; Bremen, 80 a 8054; Prussian thalers, 74 %. The specie shipment to-day was $267,000. MONEY IS MORE ACTIVE and the rate on call loans has advanced to four and five percent. The Bank of England has reduced its rate of discount one per cent, and the rate now stands at four and a half per cent. This reduction Was generally expected in view of the tncreasing ease in money tn the open market at London for two weeks past. Telegrams from Washington to-day State that the currency balance 1s now $89,000,000. The decrease yesterday 1s attributed to the destruc- tion of $12,000,000 mutilated United States notes, and the increase to-day ts said to arise from the re- placing of the old notes with new ones.
