while the colored niaii is poli'ically tI' equal of the white wan in South Caro lina, he must stand upon his own merits. (Turning to the side of the stand where the colored people were collected.) You must stand upon your own footing. You cannot be put upon any better one merely be cause you are a colored man. We propose to protect you and give You all your rights; but while we do this you cannot expect that we should discriminate in your favor, and say because you are a colored man you have a right to rule the State. We say to you that we intend to take the best men we can find to represent the State, and you must qualify your selves to do so before you can expect to be chosen. Proper qualification is necessary in all cases, and the white man who is afraid to enter the race upon such terms does not deserve to be called a white man. I not only want to impress on the white people to treat the colored peo ple with kindness, but I would go further. I would give to them every facility for education. The greatest statesman and philosopher of England has said that education is the chief defence of a nation, and no philosophi cal remarr was ever made with greater truth. I would see our people edu cated. And when I say this I do not wish to be misunderstood. I am not one of those who believe that be cause a man can read and write he is necessarily a better man than his fel low. I know he is not necessarily a better soldier, because while many of the Northern States boast that more of their people can read and write than those of almost any other nation in the world, and while they taunted us during the war with the opposite state of affairs as obtainirrg here, I would rather have taken our men (whom they alleged could neither read nor write) when I wanted good shooting done than any men I ever saw. I mean by education, then, not only intellectual education, but edu cation of the heart and soul-to lift our people up and teach them that the only true knowledge is the know e of God ! It is a mistake to suppose that, though wanting this, a man who can read and write is educa ted. The history of the past teaches us that the best educated peop'e the world has ever seen could neither read nor write. Look to Athens, the eye of Greece, where Plato and Aris totle lectured, and Demiosthenes charm ed the people with his eloquence, day by day- There were no better people than the Athenians who listened to them; but those Athenians could not read nor write, and coming down to our day and generation, the old men of this State can look back and sus tain me when I say that there were no people of this continent better in structed as to the true theory of our gov ernment, and in all that concerns gov ernmental policy, than were the people of South Carolina in former years, and their knowledge came from the same source as that of the Athenians of whom I have just spoken ; they were instructed by their great men who came frequently through the country and discussed before them the great ques'tions of the day. Now, my friends, I want not only that education, but the diffusion of a general education-that the rudiments at least should be placed in the reach of every man, and the colored people allowed the Gpportnity of bettering their condition. I want them to be made good citizens,' and I believe it can best be done by giving to their children education. When they have learned the rights, duties and respon sibilities of citizenship they will be happier, and will make -us happier. That is my general view as to the treatment of the colored man. Say to him, "You must work out your own destiny. You have been placedihere in the providence of God, and made a citizen. Show that ydu are capable of being one." In iall great struggles the weakest are thrust aside. If the colored men are wise they will try to link themselves by hooks of steel to the white men. The best friends of the colored men are the old slaveholders. I will make a predic tion to you now, and though I may not live to see it fulfilled, many of you will. It is this; that the time will come when Northern Republicans will want to take away from you the right of voting,, and those who will rise up to save you and defend your rights will be the white men of the South. They- will defend your right to vote because it gives to the South infinitely more power than we ever had before. It gives us thirty-five more votcs in Congress and thirty-five more votes in electing a Democratic President; and do you suppose men are such fools as to give up that right? No ! not if the colored man shows himself worthy of the boon. .I have said that the time will come when the colored man will join .with the white man simply because their interests are ident.ical, because they inhabit the same soil, and the same sky bends over them, and the prediction is being verified. Any man who looked beyond the mere question of the hour would have seen that the time would come when this violent condition of things, this up setting of all the theories under which we have lived, would he rectified, and the races which were living in a com mon country would have to work for the good of that common country. I would give them every opportunity for education, would help them and en courage them to come into the Demo cratic ranks. They cannot remain Republicans and yet vote in the Dem ocratic primary elections, as they wished to do here a few days ago; but if they will come in as Democrats and vote as (such, they will be wel comed, and I would treat them not only with justice, but as a Democrat other point on which I should detai1 you, and I find the fatigue of speak ing is greater than I expected. I will, however, say one worc upon the dangers which are threatening our party. The !greatest of these, in uy apprehension, is that of an Indepeti dent movement. le who sets up his own individual judgment as a rule of action, and refuses to act in full and perfect accord with our platform, in spirit as well as in letter, is an In dependent, and an Iudependent at this crisis in our affairs is worse than a Radical. Ile places himself, by his own action, outside of the pale of our party and he should be ruled out of the party. He who is not with us is against us and should be ranked among our opponents, for anopen cue my is far less dangerous than a pre tended friend. Our party must be kept fully organized, perfectly cow pact, and thoi-oughly disciplined. Every member of it must yield iai plicit obedience to its dictates, sacri ficing, if need be, his private judg ment to its expressed policy, and subordinating all personal ambition to the public welfare. Another danger lies in our confi dence. The Democratic party thinks it is invincible, and it is so when thoroughly d:sciplined and properly led, but if we have divisions and dis sensions, and if we allow ourselves or any men to set up false gods or in doctrinate us with political heresies and lead us from the straight road which led us to victory in '76 ; if we are neglectful and forgetful of the great issues under which we are fight ing. that great and invincible party which has lifted South Carolina from the depths of woe and degradation into which she had fallen-that par ty will be scattered as these leaves now shimmering above us will soon be scattered by the blasts of October. We must be united and move to gether, for on that depends now the very life of the State, not the mere supremacy of one or another party for an hour. Your children for genera tions to come will be influenced by your action. I am not now-God forbid that I should be-advocating a policy simply for momentary triumph or personal gratification. No, I have been looking far beyond the present day-for it has seemed to me that I have been able sometimes to catch transient glimpses of the future through the veil that hides it from us -and I have thought that in that far future, in the day when you and I and all of us shall have been gathered to our God, I could see a great and happy State and people. Our chil dren's chiildren-wise by the errors we have committed, chastened by sor rows we vicariously have borne for them, instructed by the experiences we have gained-shall build up a new and great country. They will lift up South Carolina and place her where God intended to her to stand-with a united, free and happy people, walking on the great road to National pros perity and peace. I have seen that future, and have worked for it ; I have prayed for it. And, surely, if in the good providence of God it is iven to us after death to look back upon the scene of our labors here, even the pleasures of Heaven would be brightened by such a view. I trust in God it may come. It would be the hightest reward that could come to me if in the hearts of those descendants of ours yet unborn they could say that I had worked for South Carolina. I would feel if God had left me sensible then of any emotion, the greatest throb of pride that could stir my heart. And I would want no nobler epitaph to be placed on my tombstone than that I had been true to South Carolina, and in war and in peace had done my whole duty to her. God save our State, and God for all time to come bless her people. [Great applause.] The speech was listened to through out with great attention and made a. profound impression. The colored por tion of the audience, of whom there were not a few, were notably interested i every word that was said, and man ifested their pleasure and satisfaction coninually by demonstrations as un mistakable as they were subdued. "What do you think of it all ?" I took occasion to ask one old man of a group. "It was as good as preachin' to me," he.replied, and I said no more as I knew he had sounded the depths of possible expressivenes so far as he was concerned. Fatigued as he was, the Governor allowed himself no rest, but in response to an earnest invita tion tendered him by a. committee of colored men, he delivered a second and appropriate speech to the col ored people at night in the Court house. The cheering which marked its close and was continued on the streets for half an hour after he had r6turned to his hotel, afforded ample evidence of the wholesome effect of his words. C. McK. Pompeii. Excavations at Pompeii prove the city to have been one of the most fashionable and beautiful of Roman summer resorts, and but for the erup tion it might have remained so to this day. As with Pompeii, so with thou sands of people who have beauty of form and feature. They might al ways be admired but for the erup tion, that makes the face un sightly, and betrays the presence of scrofula, virulent blood poisons. or general debility. There is one reme dy that positively cures these affee tions, and that remedy is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It is the best known tonic, alterative and re solvent. It speedily cures pimples, blotches, liver spots, and all diseases arising from impoverished or impure blood. It also cures dyspepsia, and regulates the liver and bowels. Sold THOS. F.

It is the practice in most, if not all, of the counties for the democrats to nominate, either by the primaries or the conventions, suitable persons for County Auditor andTreasurer, to be appointed by the Governor. These offices, we think, should be elective,but they are not; and so long as the law leaves the appointing power in the hands of the Govern or he should be allowed to use his own discretion in exercising it. Whatever information he may need to guide him in making these appointments he can ascertain in his own way. If he prefers that the people should recommend candid ates he can request them to do so through conventions or primary elections. If he prefers to get his information through other channels he has the right to do so. It is due to the Governor and to his position that he should not be dictated to in this matter. The Governor would do exactly right if he should treat as impertinent all unasked-for re commendations, whether they come from private individuals or county conventions, or from any other quar ter. After the Governor's election in 1876 he called on the county con ventions to make recommendations. This he may do again after his re election-he certainly cannot do it now. It is better that this matter remain in statu quo till after the next election, and that then the Govern or be' left free and untrammelled to exercise this appointing power in whateves way he may think fit. The State-Fair. From the preparations being made and the interest already man ifested, we look for a better State Fair than usual this year. The grounds and buildings are being put in fine condition, and special opportunities will be afforded for the exhibition of stock and machine ry. The railroads will reduce the rates of fare so low that all who wish will be able to attend. The number of visitors will be very large. We hope Newberry Counlty wll1 be well represented both in visitors and exhibitors. Let all who' have stock or articles of any kind of superior quality prepare to put them on exhibition. The Fair begins November 12th. The Yellow Fever Is still raging. New Orleans, Vicksburg, Memphis, and other miie are sumering terribly and are. For the U. S. Senate. It seems to be the settled pnr iose of some newspapers and pub- < ic men to keep Gov. Hampton out I f the United States Senate. They t peak of his making the Guberna orial office a stepping-stone to that I >osition. They' would make the ( mpression that Hampton is schem- t ng for the place, and in the same 1 )reath try to persuade the people t nd the legislators-to-be that he t annot possibly be spared from the tate Capital; that the salvation of he State depends on his being 1overnor for his whole term, etc., tc. We do not know whether the xovernor has any desire to go to he Senate; but whether he does )r not he is our candidate for that )osition. As for his making his )resent position (to which he will >e re-elected in November) a step ing-stone, that is the very silliest Dosh. Everybody who knows any hing at all knows that Governor ampton has not sought the posi ;ion of Governor, either as a step ping-stone to a higher position or or any other purpose. He accep bed the nomination in 1876 and in 1878 reluctantly, at great personal 3acrifice, as a pure act of patriotism. Ee has been made the pack-horse for the South Carolina Dermocracy long enough ; he has borne his bur den, a heavy one, cheerfully and without a murmur. He has endan gered health, has sacrificed ease and comfort of mind and body; he has placed the State beyond the reach of danger. He has done all for the State. It is time now the State should do something for him. We hope the Legislature will elect him to fill Patterson's place. Lt. Gov. Simpson can fill the Governor's chair, and will make a most excel lent Executive. Reduce Freights. Can't the S. C. and the G. & C. R. R's. let up a little on their freight charges to Newberry. Our merchants and cotton buyers are constantly grumbling, and with good cause, at the excessive rates charged them. Newberry has done more for the G. & C. R. RI., and the S. C. R. R., than any other place, far more ; and yet these roads seem to be trying to crush her very life out with their exor-bitant charges. Have corporations no gratitude ? Can't these roads show some consideration to Newberry, since they depend so much on her for patronage ? Can't the same thing be done for us that has been done for Anderson ? From the Anderson Intelligencer, we find the following : The Greenville and Columbia and the South Carolina Railroads have reduced their freight tariffs to An. derson in all cases as low as they are to Greenville, and on some classes of goods it is a little lower. This is applicable to freights from either Charleston, Columbia or New York, and therefore removes all cause of complaint so far as the town of Anderson is concerned, and places our merchants in a position to sell goods as cheap as the mer chants of Greenville or any neigh boring town can do, or to pay as much for cotton or other produce as other towns do, and hence our people should bring their cotton, &c., to Anderson, and buy their supplies, goods, &c., at this place. Now we don't find fault with this ; indeed, we congratulate An derson on her good fortune. But why should Anderson receive fa vors that are denied to Newberry ? Why should Newberry not be treat ed as kindly as Anderson has been ? The Republican Policy. We see more than ever the ne cessity of Democratic unity. There is no use to disguise facts ; or to speculate longer about what the Republicans may or may not do. It has become evident to all who had any doubts before that they in tend to nominate a ticket, and such a ticket as will require the united efforts of the Democratic party of this County to defeat it. Their ad journment the 25th ultimo without action was not caused by reason of any doubt as~ to their policy. That is folly settled, and the sole reason of the adjournment was the infor mality of the call under which they met. Their plan is to nominate a ticket composed of Republicans and Democrats. And in selecting their Democrats they will take popular men ; for thus they hope to draw away support from the regular Democratic ticket. A man named Hoffman, with a dozen or so aliases, respectable Looking and well dressed, was ar rested in New York City a few days ago for bigamy. In the District ~.ttorney's office he was confronted Day of Fasting and PrayEr. Gov. Hampton has set apart Fri lay, the 4th, as a day of fasting, iuniliation and prayer in behalf of he Yellow Fever sufferers. He ays: "I request all God-fearing >eople, not only to offer up on that lay their earnest prayers to the hrone of Grace that health may be estored to our stricken land, but o bestow charity on those who, in he providence of God, have been eft desolate and bereaved."

C., September 28, 1878. The voters of Township No. 4, Club No. 1, held a meeting to-day for the purpose of reorganizing. John McCarley was called to the Chair and M. M. Buford requested to act as Secretary. Owing to the resignation of the pre vious officers, it was moved and car ried that we go into an election for officers. The result was as follows: James S. Spearman, President ; John McCarley, 1st Vice-President ; M. M. Buford, 2nd V'ice-President : Win. Ray, 3d Vice-President ; J. W. Scott, Secretary ; W. C. Cromner, Treasurer. After the election of officers it was moved and carried that we have a Democratic Mass Meeting at Mt: Ta bor Church on the 11th of October, at 10 o'clock A. M.

A few evenings sinee, just as dark ness was falling around the mjarble walls of the Capitol, one of the police men on duty there w.s -addres:ed by a little man, closely muffled and his face hidden, whom he describes as a subdued and wearied person, with a request to be allowed to enter the chamber of the House of Representa tives. H-e wished, he said with deep feeling, to gaze upon the seat not very long ago occupied by the greatest of Americans. The kind-hearted officer granted the stranger's request, and stayed at the door of the great hall that he might not appear to look too curiously on the patriot's emotion. After an unavailing effort to check what he seemed to think might appear to his conductor an unseemly degree of feeling, the little man went down the long aisle to the seat in which the member from the Fifth Maine district formerly sat, when, at rare intervals, he sat at all, and there gave vent to his overflowing soul. The room was dark, 1 and the policeman, supposing this was some South Carolinian who wor shipped the memory of Calhoun, or some remnant of the latter days of Massachusetts, who had not forgotten Webster, and that he had simply mis taken the seats, himself dropped a tear for the great dead of the two sections and silently and respectfully waited until the visitor's grief was partly over come, and then received him with fit ting solemnity at the door and accom panied him from the building. In going out they met a member of the House,and that policeman's faith in the modesty of man was in an instant shat tered forever when the newcomer said to the little man-"Hale, old fellow, how are you." OUR ONLY REFORM ADMINISTRATION. Secretary Schurz, they say, is to follow the lead of the other members of the Cabinet and make speeches It seems as if this Administration felt itself.bound by circumstances to vio ate every rule and promise on the in violability of which it came into office I do not recall a pledge that has been kept-except the one that Sherman made, but now denies, which was that the people ,vho stole the vote of Lou isiana should be protected and re warded. COMMISSIONER SPEAR AND REFORM. Commissioner Spear of the Patent Office was, as I wrote to you som~e time since, requested to resign. He has delayed so long that his attention has been called to the request, and he will doubtless soon tender his resigna tion. It should be said that this is believed to. be a political movement, and does not indicate either irregular ity or inefficiency on the part of the Commissioner. It is simply a blow at Blaine an~d Hamlin A SCHEME OF BUTLER'S. That wild man of the political woods, Gen. Butler, with an assurance that entirely befits him, has gone out West to purchase the favor of Senator -Bavid Davis with promises of Presidential. support. The warmest friends of Butler will not deny that he lacks the strength which comes from having the sympathy of the better classes. A mong all eminent public hiien I do not think of one who' would be of more service to him in this emergency than Senator Davis. On the other hand it must be said that the Senator could form no other alliance so utterly ruin ous to him as one with Blutler. What. ever the latter's chances may be of carrying Massachusetts, it is certain his favor would be an injury to any other State. HOW THE GREENBACK PARTY AF FECTS THE STATES. In former letters the fact has been noted that the "Greenback" question has damaged Republicans in Republi can States, but has not injured Dem oats in Democratic States. If the reader will carefully go over a list of all the States he will see how little we as a party lose. It would see by the latest reports that New Hampshire and Iowa are to confirm this general truth. SOLON. Extra Liabilities toltialarial In retion. Persons whose blood is thin, digestion weak and liver sluggish, are extra-liable to the attacks of malaria! disease. The most trifling exposure may, under such condi tions, infect a system which, if healthy, would resist the miasmatic taint. The only way to secure immunity from malaria in localities where it is prevalent, Is to tone and regulate the system by improving :weak ened digestion, enriching the blood, and giving a wholesome impetus to biliary se cretion.
