I. _*J. jcnceof the citizens of Beaufort County, vill give ns their cordial support, we mter upon onrhtbors with strong hearts ind willing' hand*. THE REPUBLICAN I»i:FEAT. f Tho Republican party smarting under i crushing overthrow, seems to us to be n danger of falling into error only Irss atal than the original one, la conjuring' ip reasons all but the true ones, for its'; i gnal delent. Why the people have isen up in their mi^ht, and deposed from eepor.sible positions so many of their uworthy public servants, is beat known r> those who indulge iu weak attempts to alve over the wounds of the sorely strickn party. One administration iournul ;oea into & long jcr»»maid over the "mis- i akc of the party," last winter, in not givng the West all the currency it clamored or; as if New York and Massachusetts verc not as profoundly interested in resriction, as the West in expansion, and us f the party had not b en routed even nnre signally "h->r*« foot and dragoons,*' n those States, than elsewhere. Another lagacious leader of the Republicans asmrcs us that [the hue and cry about the 'third term"' was prime cause of the dis ister : that the wicked Democrats and iisaffcctod Republicans succeeded to jetber in convincing enough of the ignorant classes, that a third term me iut em pire and despotism to change the whole result. Another, the orgau of the President, assumes that the whole mighty change is but the first in a scries of "neat (ricks" on the part of th» Den ocratic h ad- ers, who int< nd thereby to secure and cm braco General prant to themselves, audi run him in 1876 as their own candidate. To ub it seems the most senseless folly to seek ia such di ingenious ways tbscure the real and pa'ent meaning of what may justly be termed the revolution if 1874. Within the compass of three or ibur years have been crowded so many schemes of villainy in liigb places ; such jutrageous breachis of ar'y every comnand in the Dccaloguo: such fearful prostitution of public trust; so many re rolling instances of a corrupt bargain wd salo of place and power, and such utter demoralization of tho public conscience, that it w ou d seem us if the most partisan journal would hardly care to risk its reputation for political sagacity by assigning false reasons for the catastrophe. First and foremost in this record and first also to be rebuked by the steru logic Df the ballot, is the Republican President. And he i3 not as blame-worthy as arc those who judged so unwisely as to imagine that he was one of the few whom ;fie world has known, who united great nilitary qualities, with transemdant j capacity for the administration of civil JTuirs. It is remarkable that men cele>rated for military prowess are generally bund to b r h rd strong statesman In ivil life a great gencal is frequeutly |i ,nd strangely the creature of impul e : j nfluenced in his political movements by j he last snatch of inf-rmatiop ; and often he creator*; of the Ian. aide-de-camp who ias his enr."

For instance, the natural and proper line Jfor {the South {Carolina jRailrood after reacliing Bnuichvilic should have been in continuation of its straight line to the ocean, and would necessarily huvc struck the deep writer and durable harbor of Port Royal. It cannot be denied that but for the disastrous concentrating of Railroad enterprises of the 8tete of Georgia, upon Savannah whose bars sto becoming barriers to the ingress and egress of shipping that the cotton interest would have bui't up an immense southern city, more profit* ably at some place like Port lioyal, where the necessity of shipping to Liverpool via New York, would have been avoided. The bar and harbor orCharlcston, evcii if it should ba dredged out two or three feet would not enable her to compete with Port Royal for direct trade by ocean steamers that require eighteen 01 twenty feet of water least, to cross its boas while the expense of keeping it so, dredged, must entail an.annual tax upon shipping, equal to an expense of lighterage as employed in SavannAb to overcome the samo difficulty. Had the Railroad concentrations lnen originally made upon such a p >rt aB this, am they must event ua'ly be made, in the interest of comu.crcc instaead of lieing frittered away upon two impracticable ports like Savannah and Charleston, Port Royal and not New York would now be the " Queen City" of the Western IlemUphuro. Shrewd and knowing ones now predict, that in a few years New York will no longer be the great shipping point of the Southern staple, and since the rnnthilitiM nf Pni+ ln*«l . .. i-»_ r *»«J »I ui« OU YT1UCIJT sustained and so thoroughly recognized that the great ware houses and docks .for the conduct of the cotton trade heretofore necessarily making Haw York its eiupor ium becuuso no where ;else was hitherto found capable will be'established at this wonderfully endowed port, for such purpose. The advantages which such project poscssescs over tiu heretofore system of aare houseing cottou in New York instead of keeping it stored and on deposit m a snutluru port subject to order either for foreign or domestic consumption is engaging the attention of merchants engaged in the cotton trade. To say nothing of the saving of expense of rcshipment and rehaudling, what an immense saving in expense of storage is to be effected by such a plan, when one considers the value of space in ware room and dockage in New York, as compared with the Jimitlc&H facilities possessed around our incomparable hnrlmr.

A GOLDEN TEXT. During the last two or threo years no charge has been so often in the mouths of the people who thought they were supporting tho Administration, as that of treason to the Republican party. When Mr. Greeley with equal foresight and humanity insisted that Jefferson Davis should l>e tifed or bailed, and denounced the pitiful narrowness which excluded y- ar after year a few thousand Southerners from the privileges which were aecor d;d to their neighbors and their laborers, he was furiously abused by meQ who were as incapablo of comprehending his motives as ihey were of imitating bis beneficent life. When they cited him to appear l»efore a little inquisition at the Union-League Club to give reasons why he should not be cut oh' from among the loyal, he answered in that incomparable letter, which will always remain a mas terpieco of reason aud of rhetoric, giving expression to the scorn which his emancipated epirit felt fOr those " narrow-minded block-heads who would like to be useful to a great and good cause, but did not know how. " In that letter one golden phrase which then%eemed startling to many ardent Republicans, but whicu is seen every year to be truer and wiser. » Your attempt to bate a great enduring party on the hate and wrath neeettarily engendered by a great Civil War, ie at though you thould plant a colony on an iceberg which had tomehote drifted into a tropical ocean. " These are beautiful and memorable words, and tbe Republican party would have l>een in far better plight to day if it had listened to them when they were uttered, But they were met with the loud anger of tljo viol- qt partisans, or the louder laughter of fools. The policy of wrath and hatred seemed to them the best for all purposes, i hey could make more money and more votes by it than by any other. It brought forward and vrpi, in |iuum; ii ic Hucn men as Butler and Logan, whose denunciations of rebels covered a multitude of iniquities. It proved the cloak to every kind of corruption. A rogue had only to drapa himself in the star-spangled banner to steal at his leisure. A man who suggested that even Southerners had somn right and some interest in the country, was instantly the target of tlio?e glib scoundrel*, who were stealing the South poor in the name of liberty, and their purblind associated in,the North never failed to support them. No emineuce, no abilities' no luster of virtuous fame could protect a man who would not join in the hoarse cry of a vujgnr and narrow hatred. Sumner offended in, this way, and an obscure d inagogue could stampede the General « ourt of Massachusetts to censure him for it. Truinbull chose to follow his instincts of lawyer and gentleman, and lie was turned out of the seat in whicli he had for eighteen years done his State a* much honor as service. Wo will not recall the infamy of that campaign of foulness in which Greeley was hounded to hia grave, No one will d^ny that for e.glit years after the war ended, it was m re damaging for a public man to counsel justice and charity to the South than it was to ba caught pilfering fr m the public che*t. But the iccbjrg ban drifted into war nor nod the colony at last finis iU footing insecure. This year the manager/* of the Republican party, confronted l»y Utc moat serious pa ril they had ever m't, loaded down with a rcc rd of fr.iud3 misrule and abuse of jmjwit which cou>d j not bo cxp'aincd away, and ovcr-.di idow* ed by a still mora important dsngr ari-ing fnun the greed and selfish caprice « f the Pieddmt,.still could think of no iasuto fire tlie hearts of the voter.* and keep their linna steady, exoept tho old appeal < f wrath and hatred, i'hey could find no other argument to make people vote for the Administration except that the pcoplo of the South woro rebels and murderi rs. It was tried onco too often, j The sped has lost its power. Tho war was ended r early ten years ago, and if the. South is not yet at peace, tin re is no liopa tliot Gont-rnI Grant ran pacify it. If the crimson storbs were tru-, there w uhl bo no aruum. nt in theui. But ;hey are fabc, and the oeotile h»iv« m- a I I' islicd by their vote# the calumny and tbr blumlrr tt>gethcr. 'J he words of Mr. Orccley, wcicli were it stumbling bio k to the patriots of the Custom-bouan when I hoy re nttored, are now the coiuiuo:. thought ol" every one. The |>olioy of u.ite u».d wrath will never win another c..!fttio:i.

THE REPUBLICAN I»i:FEAT. fTho Republican party smarting under

i crushing overthrow, seems to us to ben danger of falling into error only Irssatal than the original one, la conjuring'ip reasons all but the true ones, for its';ignal delent. Why the people haveisen up in their mi^ht, and deposed fromeepor.sible positions so many of theiruworthy public servants, is beat knownr> those who indulge iu weak attempts toalve over the wounds of the sorely stricknparty. One administration iournul;oea into & long jcr»»maid over the "mis- iakc of the party," last winter, in not givngthe West all the currency it clamoredor; as if New York and Massachusettsverc not as profoundly interested in resriction,as the West in expansion, and usf the party had not b en routed evennnre signally "h->r*« foot and dragoons,*'n those States, than elsewhere. Anotherlagacious leader of the Republicans asmrcsus that [the hue and cry about the'third term"' was prime cause of the disister : that the wicked Democrats andiisaffcctod Republicans succeeded tojetber in convincing enough ofthe ignorantclasses, that a third term me iut empire and despotism to change the wholeresult. Another, the orgau of the President,assumes that the whole mightychange is but the first in a scries of "neat(ricks" on the part of th» Den ocratic h ad-ers, who int< nd thereby to secure and cmbraco General prant to themselves, audirun him in 1876 as their own candidate.To ub it seems the most senseless follyto seek ia such di ingenious ways

tbscure the real and pa'ent meaning ofwhat may justly be termed the revolutionif 1874. Within the compass of three oribur years have been crowded so manyschemes of villainy in liigb places ; suchjutrageous breachis of n» ar'y every comnandin the Dccaloguo: such fearfulprostitution of public trust; so many re

rolling instances of a corrupt bargainwd salo ofplace and power, and such utterdemoralization of tho public conscience,that it w ou d seem us if the mostpartisan journal would hardly care torisk its reputation for political sagacityby assigning false reasons for the catastrophe.

First and foremost in this record andfirst also to be rebuked by the steru logicDf the ballot, is the Republican President.And he i3 not as blame-worthy as arcthose who judged so unwisely as toimagine that he was one of the few whom;fie world has known, who united greatnilitary qualities, with transemdant jcapacity for the administration of civilJTuirs. It is remarkable that men cele>ratedfor military prowess are generallybund to b r h rd strong statesman Inivil life a great gencal is frequeutly |i,nd strangely the creature of impul e : jnfluenced in his political movements by jhe last snatch of inf-rmatiop ; and oftenhe creator*; of the Ian. aide-de-camp whoias his enr."

A GOLDEN TEXT.During the last two or threo years no

charge has been so often in the mouthsof the people who thought they weresupporting tho Administration, as that oftreason to the Republican party. WhenMr. Greeley with equal foresight and humanityinsisted that Jefferson Davisshould l>e tifed or bailed, and denouncedthe pitiful narrowness which excludedy- ar after year a few thousand Southernersfrom the privileges which were aecord;d to their neighbors and their laborers,he was furiously abused by meQ whowere as incapablo of comprehending hismotives as ihey were of imitating bisbeneficent life. When they cited him toappear l»efore a little inquisition at theUnion-League Club to give reasons whyhe should not be cut oh' from among theloyal, he answered in that incomparableletter, which will always remain a masterpieco of reason aud of rhetoric, givingexpression to the scorn which his emancipatedepirit felt fOr those " narrow-mindedblock-heads who would like to beuseful to a great and good cause, but didnot know how. " In that letter one goldenphrase which then%eemed startling tomany ardent Republicans, but whicu isseen every year to be truer and wiser.» Your attempt to bate a great enduringparty on the hate and wrath neeettarilyengendered by a great Civil War, ie atthough you thould plant a colony on aniceberg which had tomehote drifted into atropical ocean. "

These are beautiful and memorablewords, and tbe Republican party wouldhave l>een in far better plight to day if ithad listened to them when they wereuttered, But they were met with theloud anger of tljo viol- qt partisans, or thelouder laughter of fools. The policy ofwrath and hatred seemed to them thebest for all purposes, i hey could makemore money and more votes by it thanby any other. It brought forward andvrpi, in |iuum; ii ic Hucn men as Butlerand Logan, whose denunciations ofrebels covered a multitude of iniquities.It proved the cloak to every kind of corruption.A rogue had only to drapahimself in the star-spangled banner tosteal at his leisure. A man who suggestedthat even Southerners had somn rightand some interest in the country, wasinstantly the target of tlio?e glib scoundrel*,who were stealing the South poorin the name of liberty, and their purblindassociated in,the North never failed tosupport them. No emineuce, no abilities'no luster of virtuous fame could protect aman who would notjoin in the hoarse cryof a vujgnr and narrow hatred. Sumneroffended in, this way, and an obscured inagogue could stampede the General« ourt of Massachusetts to censure himfor it. Truinbull chose to follow hisinstincts of lawyer and gentleman, andlie was turned out of the seat in whiclihe had for eighteen years done his Statea* much honor as service. Wo will notrecall the infamy of that campaign offoulness in which Greeley was houndedto hia grave, No one will d^ny that fore.glit years after the war ended, it wasm re damaging for a public man to counseljustice and charity to the South thanit was to ba caught pilfering fr m thepublic che*t.But the iccbjrg ban drifted into war nornod the colony at last finis iUfooting insecure. This year the manager/*of the Republican party, confronted l»yUtc moat serious pa ril they had ever m't,loaded down with a rcc rd of fr.iud3misrule and abuse of jmjwit which cou>dj not bo cxp'aincd away, and ovcr-.di idow*ed by a still mora important dsngrari-ing fnun the greed and selfish caprice« f the Pieddmt,.still could think of noiasuto fire tlie hearts of the voter.* andkeep their linna steady, exoept tho old
