The Convention did well in adopt ing the plan of primary elections. There can scarcely be a doubt that it is a far superior sys tem to the former one of nomina ting conventions. Every Democrat will now have the opportunity of choosing candidates for himself, instead of choosing other men to make the choice as by the old way. And it is a better plan than that which prevailed before the war the "scrub" race-every man for himself, and the most popular man for the office. We mean to say it is better than that plan would be now, under the circumstances that surround us. There is room for scheming un der any plan. There is bound to be wire-pulling. You can't keep a politician from seeking office and using underhand means to obtain it, no matter what plans are adopt ed. What the people can do, how ever, and what they ought to do, and we believe will do, is to order these "journeyman patriots, look ing for a job," to take back seats. Let every man, in these primary elections, vote for the man of his own choice and suffer no dictation from any quarter. These "journey. men patriots" will have their work ers in every township and at every precinct to tell the people how to vote. Resent all such interference as an insult to your manhood, your intelligence and your citizenship. Use your own judgment. If the man of your choice be defeated in the primary election, be sure he would be defeated in the real elec tion. Further support of him after that would be useless and foolish. Submit your choice then to the -choice of the majority of the party when you come to vote for officers; but in voting for candidates be guided entirely by your own choice. If such principles as these con trol the Democrats of the County the primary elections will work well and the professional politician will soon become a thing of the past- So mote it be. The Sout Carolina Press Asso ciation met in Charleston Wednes -day, April 24th, remaining in ses sion three days. The following offi eers were elected to serve for the ensuing year: President, F. W. Dawson, Charleston News and Cou rier; 1st Vice-President, R. B. Rhett, Charleston Journal of Comn merce ; 2nd Vice-President, T. B. Crews, Laurensville Herald ; 3d Vice-President, D. J. Carter, Lan caster Ledger ; 4th Vice-President, W. J. McKerral, Marion Star ; 5th Vice-President, J. T. Bacon, Edge field Advertiser; Recording Secre tary, A. A. Gilbert, Pee Dee (Dar lington) Watchman; Correspond ing Secretary, E. B. Murray, An derson Intelligencer; Treasurer, Thos. F. Greneker, Newberry Hsx One hundred and seventy-five of the Liberia emigrants. men, women and children, were left behind in Charleston, to await the second trip of the Azor. They are nearly all from the upper portion of the State. The Exodus Association has pur chased for $700, 270 acres of land on the Wando river, ten miles from Charleston, where they will place these waiting emigrants and fur nish them work and support till the Azor's return. In our notice of the Blair resolu tions last week we inadvertently used the caption Tilton vs. Hayes. We take this opportunity to apolo gize to Tilton. He has done a great many mean things, but he never stole the Presidency. William Orton, President of the Western Union Telegraph Compa ny, died in New York, 22d uilt., of appoplexy. Vice-President Reed as een chosen his sucessor. The officer who arrested ex-Gov. Uoses in New York three weeks %go has returned to Charleston without his prisoner. He says the State furnished him no money to pay expenses. He describes Moses' condition to be a pitiable one. A man by the name of Whitbeck in Albany, N. Y., attempted to kiss a Mrs. Mead. She sued him for $1,000 damages, and the jury gave her $400. Pretty dear kiss, espe cially as he didn't get it. McLin, Chairman of the Florida Returning Board in the Presiden tial election in 1876, has publicly declared that the Tilden Electors were elected in that State by a ma jority of several hundred. The Summer Mfeeting of the State Grange will be held at Spar tanburg the 2nd Tuesday in August. The House, Thursday, passed the Senate bill repealing the Bankrupt Law. Editorial Correspondence. CHARLESTON, S. C., April 27,1878. The readers of the HERALD who feel an interest in the fourth estate will be pleased to learn that the Fourth Annual Meeting of the S. C. P. A., so far as business is concerned, is now of the past. It was a delightful reunion of the Knights whose titles fortunately are made only with quills or Faber's best soft lead. Our reception here in this beautiful and historic city 'was all that could be wished and more than was ex. pected. The city in its most charming garb, that of Spring, is brimful of amusement and alluring excitement, the Easter Festival, given by that splen did corps, the Washington Light Infan try, the Floral Fair, the Catholic Fair, and more of a like delightful character, lending such attractions as are impossi ble to be resisted, have brought to it hundreds of visitors. The Press was honored by cards of invitation from right and left-indeed, they fell in grate ful showers, giving us the 'open sesame' to every entertainment; it is needless to say that such kind consideration was most highly appreciated. An invitation by Collector Baldwini to an excursion around the Harbor in the U. S. Steam er Moccasin, was another compliment of which the Association did not fail to show appreciation. This happy event came off Thursday, and so courteous were the officers of the trim little steam er, so genial the Collector, so sweetly delicious and cool the strawberries and cream, so placid the waters of the bay and invigorating the breeze that a con, templated trip to Florida was brought to a full head on this bright and auspi cious morning. The rural editors are determined to try so much of the sea as is afforded by a run to the land of Flow ers, and make an exploration of the St. Joha's river. At eleven o'clock this morning, sharp, the Dictator will lift her anchor and bear away the happy number who have determined to make the venture-and it is probable your correspondent will be one of them. It is hoped that we will not be gobbled up by the alligators which swarm in those strange waters, and that we shall all be permitted to return and sing of "-A Life on the Ocean Wave." Before closing this hurried letter we would make special mention of Capt. Win. A. Courtenay, whose attentions were marked with the greatest kind ness. It was in the magnificent hall of his company, the W. L. IL, before men tioned, that we held our meetings, and largely to him are we indebted for that and other distinguished favors. And now adieu. Should we essay the Florida trip, we shall tell something of "the sea, the sea, the deep blue sea" when "the Dolphin shows its back of gold." G. The healthy growth of the baby is dependent upon its freedom from the pernicious effects of opium. Dr. Bull's Baby Syrup is the best remedy known for the diseases of early child hood. A Campaign Slander. When Dr. R. V'. Pierce was a can didate for State Senator, his political opponents published a pretended an alysis of his popular medicines, hoping thereby to prejudice the people against him. His election by an overwhelm ing majority severely rebuked his tra ducers, who sought to impeach his business integrity. No notice would have been taken of these campaign lies were it not that some of his ene mies (and every successful business man has .his full quota of envious rivals) are republishing these bogus analyses. Numerous and most absurd formulas have been published, pur porting to come from high authority ; and it is a significant fact that no two have been at all alike-conclusively proving the dishonesty of their au thors. ECONOMY IS WEA LTH, Poor Richard says. If this be true, then it is wise in every family to use Daryeas's Satin Gloss Starch in preference to any other, be cause It is the most economical ever mann factured in the world. It is the most econom ical because it is the best; it is the cheapest because it is the best. It is purer, whiter, and stronger than any other starch. it has received the highest award over all competi tors in the four quarters of the globe. Don't be deceived by your grocer. Ask for Duryeas' Improved Corn Star.ch for food, and Duryeas' Satin Glnss Starch for Ig.undry purposes, and take no other. Dr-C-W--nsn' e+--- and--- O The County Convention. PRUNIARY SYSTEM ADO-TED.

Under any other circumstances 'e would -avoid this publicity, but are ow constrained by the kindness of ur friends. The month has contin ed in keeping with its auspicious be inning. On Good Friday the Kings reek congregation, and a number of ersons in the neighborhood in which e live, and others from your village, egan to gather at our home and con nued to come Antil the house was' uore than filled. Previous experience ad taught us to submit to the hospi ulity of such visitors. Without any efinite conceptions of what would oc ir we watched the spread of the en ~yent that is peculiar to such ocea ons. The liberties taken with th-e astor's family, the consciousness of oing good, and the unrestrained fel wship, give to these occurrences a ch pleasure of their own. When e hour for dinner arrived we were vited to preside at a magnificent ast. In the quantity and quality of ands and in the number and charac r of the guests it could not be ex 'lled in the County, and in both of Lese you know that we think New rry beats the world. In merry talk id general enjoyment of the table the >ur passed away- very pleasantly. fter some time spent in agreeable nversation, one of the crowd inform I s in a neat address why they had come to our house and made it the st Friday that we had ever seen. e said that the K. C.

When, in ri plying to his address, we looked rouni on that crowd made up not only o our own congregation, but of all th denominations in our community, ani realized the objects of their visit, w experienced-a pleasure that could no be expressed in words. We confes that we failed signally to express ou feelings, a colder heart than our would have been overcome with suc, kindness. That our errors should b overlooked, our infirmities borne witt and our feeble efforts to do good s warmly appreciated was far more tha we expected or deserved. As the da wore away the crowd dispersed, leai ing us a cheered, encouraged and hal py household. The psalm sang tb night was one of thanksgiving, an the incense from our altar was joy an gladness and gra;itude. And no when we meet at our table or mov about in our home and see everywhei some token of affectionate regard tw thoughts come up frequently.

It is a large an valuable ball; and if you, Mr. Edito had seen it, you might have criticise its symmetry and proportions-but you had been with us when we sep rated the different parts and foun them all useful-just such t.hings are needed in the family of a counti parson-you would not wonder th. we are truly grateful to the good pe ple who contributed to its compositio In addition to the donations th we received, a bountifuxl dinner w. prepared, in the yard, of which ~ partook in picnic style; and thei was left over and above, a goodly po tion, upon which we feasted for sevr ral days, after the kiod donors ha departed.
