The Cooatltutionnl Amendment* to bo

juegiaiaturo or Boath Carolina, at Ita
last session, passed two Aots, proposing chan|W
in the Constitation of H? 8ut?, and eaoh
of which is to to submitted fo a rots of the
people for adoption or rejection. The first
one is in reference to tho change of time of
holding the general State elections, and is as
follows:
Strike oat all of that portion of 8eetion XI
of Articlo 2 following the words " eighteen
hundred and seventy," occurring in the fourth
and fifth lines, and insert the following: "And
forever thereafter on the first Tuesday follow,
iag the first Monday in November, ia every
second year, in snoh manner sod at snoh
places ss the Legislators may provide."
Should this amendment he ratified, the day
of election for Governor, Lieutenant-Governor,
Attorney-General, Secretary of Statu,
State Treasurer, Comptroller-General, Superintendent
of Education, Adjutant aad Inspector-General,
and Congressmen, also members
of the State Senate and House of Representatives,
Solicitors of the Circuits, Judges of
Probato, Clerks, Sheriffs, School and County
VVIUUIIOOIVUQIO auu VVlVUVro, Will UU 1UBUU VU
come on tbe mmo day of tbe month as that of
President and Vice-President in Presidential
years.
Tbo manner of voting on this amendment
shall bo as follows : Those in favor of tbe
amendment shall deposit a ballot with tbe following
words written or printed thereon:
" Conetitutional Amendment? Yet." Those
opposed to said amendment shall east a ballot
with the following words written or printed
thereon : " Conetitutional Amendment?No."
There cau be no objection to this amendment;
in fact, it is really desirable that all of these
elections should be made to come off at the
same time. Our cleetions now are much too
frequont, causing great distraction from business
and farm work. Therefore, we think
all sensible and right-minded people will vote
for its adoption, which wo urge them to do.
Tbo second Amendment to the State Constitution
is a much more important one, affecting
the interests of the people of the Stato
more forcibly and intimately, and it should
hare their close and earnest attention. If it
is adopted and then honestly adhered to and
executed, its ratification will bo of vast advantage
and protection to the entira State.
This second amendment relates to the further
increase of the public debt of the State, vis :
Articlk XVI.?To the end that iho publio
debt of South Carolina may not hereafter be
increased without the dtfe consideration and
the free consent of tbe people of tbe State,
tbe General Assembly is hereby forbidden to
create any further debt or obligation, either
wj i no lo&u 01 illQ C real I. 01 iuo vjr
guarantee, endorsement or otherwise, except
nrHinarp an/1 nnwoMt Knainaas Of tlx?
State, without first submitting tbe question as
to the creation of any new debt, guarantee, endorsement
or loan ot tbo credit, to the people
of this Stato, at a general election ; and unless
two-thirds of the qualified voters of this
State voting on tbo question shall be in favor
of further debt, guarantee, endorsement or
loan of this credit, nono shall be created or
made."
The manner of voting on this Amendment
shall be as follows: Those in favor of the
Amendment shall doposlt a ballot with the
following words written or printed tbcrcon:
"Conetitutional Amendment, Article XVI?
Yet." Those opposed to tbo Amendment
shall east a ballot with the following words
written or printed thereon : " Cinititutional
Amendment, Article XVI?No."
Let every voter adopt thin Amendment, and
urge upon bis friends and neighbors to vote
for it. If there was lacking anything in the
approaching election to induce the people to
turn out and vote?and there is everything to
causo them to make any reasonable sacrifice
in order to attond the polls on that day?this
Amendment to the State Constitution, forbid*
ding the increase of the debt of the Stato be*
fore submitting it to the people, should cause
them to rally to the polls. Of course, with a
corrupt Legislature, any and everything can
bo perverted, and we have, at best, but little
to hope for an honest administration ; but the
adoption of this measure can certainly do no
harm, and is calculated to be a great and allpowerful
protection to the interests of Sooth
Carolina. Let it be adopted, as with one
voico.
There Should be no Apathy.
Wednesday, the 16th day of Oc
tober, the time for the holding of
the State, Congressional and County
elections, is last approaching,
and however busy and otherwise
engaged the people may be, they
must bear the fact in mind. The
men then elected, will remain in
office, some two and some tor four i
years; it is, therefore, an impor- ]
tant day.
It is well known that the Republican
party of Greenville County ,
is in a very large minority, and 1
that there is not the ghost of a ,
chance for them to (rain a single <
man on tbeir ticket, through real 1
strength. But there is danger qf ,
their success, through the indiffer- i
ence or apathy of their opponents 1
If the white people do not bestir
themselves, and go and vote, and
see that all their neighbors do the J
6ame, they must make up their ]
minds to defeat and prepare iu ad- ?
vancc for it. Such a result will \
be shameful, and a lasting reproach j
to them! and will not speak the <
troth, as the poopie or Greenville, ;
as a whole, are whito in their col- (
or and Conservative in sentiments. |
Let nothing keep our peoplo from ]
Totinir: Dormit no interest to have \
CT W |
tbem neglect the polls, long enough 1
at least to east a ticket; leave cotton
picking alone for one day ; attend
the polls. Ihere should bo J

not so steeped in scheme* of plunder and
dishonesty. This difference it i* not easy
to say is a small one. We judge them by
their own reoord and words. The first
thing they did after their return, placing
thsir candidates in the field, vai to announce
that if the Conservative* dared
place a tioket in the field and take advantage
of the split in the Republican party,
they would immediately withdraw and return

Noble Words from & Noble Msu<
Horace Greeley, the Liberal-RepublicanDemocratic
candidate for President of tho
United States, bas been visiting a number of
places and cities in the West-Pittsburg, Cincinnati,
Indianapolis, Cleveland, etc., etc.,
and bis reception ss he proceeds is a continued
snd enthusiastic ovation. At many of the
places ha has made pointed and able speeches,
The course of Mr. Greeley is in such marked
contrast with that of Grant, the latter preferring,
to bang around the watering places and
keep mum on every issue discussed by theAmerican
people, except when be talks horse,
drinking mean liquor and smoking cigars.
The effect of Mr. Greeley's presence in those
Western towns will have a tremendous effect
upon the people in that whole section, in tboapproaching
State elections of Pennsylvania, Ohio
and Indiana, ocourring on next Tuesday, 8th
inst., as well as in the Presidential contest
We quote some of the words he speaks at
he has been progressingt
" Had be been a Southerner. daring the war,
educated si Southerners were, he might have
acted as they did; but being a Northerner,
be bad been one of the first to adv-ieate peaee
when danger bad passed, though not without
securing the liberties of the blaoks." "There
are white men stiil disfranchised, and for them
ue now pieaaea." " We bad been generous
and just to the blaeks ; lot ue at least he just
to the whites." " Jf the people onlj krew the
whole truth about earpet-bag governments,
there would be no doubt of the result of this
canvass." " The South bad greatly sinned,
but greatly suffered and repented, and should
be forgiven." " The rohbers of South Carolina
would he on a dead raee out of that State
two days after they beard a pew Government
was elected against them." " When be went
bail for Jeff. ?>avis, bis aetion was not for the
man; it was an overture to the whole South*
era people. Millions of men felt that act of
kindness to their seetion. For their sake, he
deemed it wise to do as be did." " Men say
I shall be defeated ; hut I cannot be defeated ;
I may not succeed as a candidate, but the effort
I am making to bring the people into
more trusting relations with each other eSnQOt
fail, it must succeed."
At Indianapolie, Ind., Mr. Greeley was introduced
by Hon. D. W. Vorbeee to the audience,
end announced aa the watch word of the
j re sent canvass, Reoonciliation and Pacificaion.
He said tha country was oonfrontad
eith deadly peril of oorruption. A canoer is
tating into her vitals, whereof the eeeence is
purchased by legislation, bribed publio warrants,
and betrayal of the highest traits.

Republican aide, doring tha present cam* 8p
paign, vti delivered on Monday night, in m
tha Court House, by Hon. D. T. Oohbin, one Si
of the moat pointed and effeolive speakers pi
ol the Boilers, and even entire Republican sa
party.
After being introduced and a brie' pros 7*
logue from himself, ha took his text and si
proceeded to its consideration. Hie ik?-me Qi
was F. J. Mosks, Jr.. and lie discussed the ea
demerits of It in a most thorough and com- in
plete manner. He commenced with Mr. p
Mobks as Adjutant and Inspector Genera), tt
telling his audience how he spent in that
office $110,000 in enrolling the militia, r*
work that could have bean done with $10, io
000 ; next, as agant of the Arm* Transae* p'
tion, squandering $200,000, and accounting ^
for 00I7 $90,000. He proeesded then to ju
speak of him as Speaker of tlio House of b:
Represented*es, ccnneoting his subject with #J
assisting in tba passage of the plundering h;
Acts of the Greenville Railroad Swindle, '
the Railroad Conaolidation Bill and the | ir
Blue Ridge Bill, showing the assistance he a<
rendered in those corrupt measures. Also, j K
up the Validating Bill, whereby a
debt of six millions*.' or nasi v fraud,
ulent, was saaaied upon lbs Stite, the very
Aet bearing on its face its frm dulent char- l'
acter; its passage by the Legislature b-ing ^
through the support of Mosks. He next l<
followed him in his pay certificate history, *
issuing near $700,000, when the legitimate 0
expenses of the Legislature could not have
exceeded $150,000. How the State Trcssu- rc
rr had been robbed by means of these eer- b
tificates, leaving tha State Lunstia Asylum,
Penitentiary, Ac., "to live if they eould. die
if they mustexposed his tricks in giving K
away certifieatea to secure his nomination
for Governor, entering into the detail of a
great deal of the minnti ?. After dwelling ol
with considerable length upon this charge, b
in which he denounced him a thief, apply*. ^
ing against him repeatedly the worst epi ai
thote regat ding his honesty, he passed to w
Mr. Cardozo, the osndldate for State Tress* 01
ursr on the Regnlar tioket. Some one in ^
tha auJienee, inquired of Mr. Corb a if
these mosslrous crimes charged to Mr Mo*
sxa were true, why lis was not prosecuted
in the court*. The reply was that the fuels 11
and eerU'n figure* had come to light only ''
recently; that he was not the proper official
to doit, but that the Solicitors should
enter suit against him. Mr. Cardoso was
then completely shown up in his connee re
tion with the issuing of the six millions
of fraudulent bonds, his connivance
with Scarr, Parkbr 6 Co , In that great
and fraudulent transaction. Ths speaker vi
alluded to the connection Mr Cardozo had gi
with the nominating convention in Colum- W
bia, whereby he there went oontriry to al
the instructions of his constituents, and
many thitigs connected therewith.
Mr CoaiifN alluded also to the roonees ft(
I tion of Mr. Tomlixson with the Phosphate ^
Bill; sod upon the authority of Timotot c,
Hurlkt, cleared him of the oharge of pay* ?,
ing the money for bribing the hill through tb
the Legislature. P
Mr. Cormn, in appealing to the colored v?
Republicans to sustain the ticket of Mr.
Tomunsor. told them that if they did not c
vote wisely and for honest men in prefen Ul
enec to dishonest once, the position always
maintained by the Democralie parly, that
the celored people would voU fur had men as w
readily at for good men would be true, there ^
fore if they failed to give their support to the *1
Trne Republicans, the position of the Dem * '
oerats would be right and the advocates of ^
giving suffrage to the colored people have G
been wrong. th

Mr. O. F. Waters?Dear Sir : ( have
just packed and forwarded to the St. Louis
Pair, one bale of Cotton, raised from the
seed of your white hloom. Presuming that
you would like to hear my opinion, as to
the growth of the cotton, since 186C, I have
given perronal attention to my farm, have
tried the Jelhro Zipporah and other cotton,
and have well nigh concluded that thtre is
hut little difference as to value and quality,
trom my tavorite ootton. The send obtained
from you, however, differs maldi*
al'.y from all I have seen, the color of stalk
and leaves being very different ; it a so
grows different from any 1 ever saw, boil*
ing from the beginning, and limbs more
thao all other cotton ; is aLo more proliflo
than any I have seen ; and my experiment
with it, proves that it stand* the heat and
dry spells that we are subjeot to, bener
tbno any other ootton, and is the best cotton
grown for dry, sandy land. You know
I hud but twenty four pound* ot seed ; with
them I planted near two and a hall acres,
near my house, in poor land, on the 16th
May. 1 ahull make two bales with two*,
thirds of a stand. For fear I would
lore a seed, I planted it as I wanted it to
stand ; not more than two-thirds came up.

I have shown the cotton to * factor of ?*
perience, who pronounced it worth from 20
to 25 per cent, more than the common varieties.
I ahull plant my entire crop next
year in the suine seed, disposing of ten or
fifteen buehels to my ueighbors and others.
Every farmer ought to have the seed.
