Miller said the next stel t for the convention would be the elee t tion of delegates to the State couven, tion, but before doing that he desirec to oft'er a series of resolutions. At the mandate of the last State conventioi I the Governor of South Carolina was e required to do what was never don4 before. There was a moral obligatiot resting upon every man who expectec 1 -to be a candidate to go before the peo 1 pie land discuss the issues of the da.y 1 This G3overno- Richardson has donE e and he has been compelled to carry - load of infamy when no other man has been cleaner than he has. Col. Mille1 e said he was not.the champion of an3 ring or clique, yet he desired to see fail play and honesty. Col. Miller paid hiigh tribute to the character, integrrit) d patriotism of Governor Richard .son. The honor of South Carolina,saic r Col. Miller, has been untarnished it t his hands. He has complied like an with every demand made upor him by his State. Feeling as I do it this matter, it is that I offer to thi: convention the following resolutions: r XH EREAS, The Democracy of Souti Carolina, in convention assembled, ir .the city of Columbia, by formal resolu e tion required those gentlemen, wh< should become candidates ior the Stata otices to meet the people and discusi e the isgues of the day, and meeting: e were appointed for that purpose by th< State executive committee, and H EREAS, John P. Richardson alonE .has met the requirements of the sait resolutioni by cans. ~',g the State as ~adiate for the .aice of Governor W H E REAS, The said John P. Rich Sardson has proved zealous and faithfu as Governor of South Carolina; there fore be it Reored, That we, the Democratic r party of Newberry County. in con vention assembhlled, do hereby pledg< ourselves in favor of the renoninatiol of John P. Richardson as Governor, al well as the renomination of the othe; e State officers. Dr. 8. Pojp said that at a time iki this he obhected to coming before th< convention. He had not a word to say against J. P. Richardson. He did not think he was the only man im South Carolina entitled to be Governor. There was no precedent in South Caro lina giving two terms to any man as Governor. In 1882 Iennedy and Brat ton canvassed the State, and Thomp son was nominated. He had nothing to say against Rich ardson, but there are many other good men in the State just as much entitled to be Governor as Richardson. Dr. Pope thereupon offered the following as a substitute for the resolution of Mr. Miller: WHEREAS, There is a diversity of opinion as to who this county favors for Governor; and WH.EREAS, It is proper that a full expression shall be given, coupled with the vote of this convention, as to the same-now be it Resolved, That as each man is nomi nated for the position of delegate to the. State convention, he shall say whether he is for Hon. John P. Richardson for Governor, or against him. Mr. Miller moved to lay the substi tute on the table. Dr. Pope called the ayes and nays, and on the call of the roll the motion to table was lost by a vote of 122 to 74. The following is the vote: Ayes-Jas McIntosh, Y J Pope, J c Wilson, It .

Mr. George Johnstone thought the substitute was not explicit enough. He said we should know who we are voting for. If we are against Richard son let us know who we are for, and he moved to amend the substitute so that delegates when they are nominated shall state who they favor for Governor, and not simply whether they are for or against Richardson. Dr. Pope- thought the substitute as plain as the noonday sun. possibly a little too plain. He moved to table the amendment. Mr. Johnstone thought that motion unfair, as it cut off debate, and Dr. Pope withdrew the motion to table. Mr. George Johnstone then spoke to his amendment. He was not there to champion the cause of any man for Governor, but he believed in fair play, and if the gentlemen were opposed to Richardson let them say who they favored. If they are agreed on a manl he saw no objection to naming him. That was fair, he thougnt. Dr. Pope renewed his motion to table the amendment, and the ayes and nays were again called, and the amendment was tabled by a vote of 104 to 90. The motion was then on the adoption of the substitute of Dr. Pope. Mr. W. H. Wallace then spoke against the substitute. He thought the whole thing harmful. Why single out J. P. Richardson? He has made a good Governor. He has met every re quirement and responsiblility put upon him by his party. If we can't send delegates to the State convention of good judgment, and able to act for themselves and the best interests of the party, why we had better not send any. Mr. Wallace then read the amendment to the State Democratic Constitution adopted at the last State convention, which says candidates for Governor and Lieutenant Governor shall be expected to address the people and define their position on the issues of the day. Dr. S.~Pope then spoke for his substi tute, and Mr. George Johnstone against Mr. John W. Scott was opposed to J. P. Richardson's renomination. He thought J. C. Scheppard was the favorite of the anti-Richardsod party. Mr. Geo. B. Cromer thought that Democratic principles made it neees sary and incumbent upon South Caro lina to nominate J. P. Richardson, who is a manly man. While the dark horses were galloping around loose in the pasture J. P. Richardson was obey ing the call of his party in making the canvass of the State as mapped out by the State executive commnittee. After Richardson has obeyed your call wvhy do you want this convention to sit down on him? The question was called, and the sub stitute off'ered by Dr. Pope was adopted. nThe following delegates were then put inomination: Sampson Pope, J. A. Sligh, J. R. Irwin, P. C. Smith, J. L. Wise, John WV. Scott, J. C. Neel, T. J. Hunter, W. A. Hill, R. (. Carlisle, and G. G. Dewalt, Messrs. Smith, Hill and Carlisle declined and the other eight gentlemen, on motion of Mr. J. S. Hair, were elected by ac clamation. All of them anti-Richard son. Mr. Scott favors Sheppard. Who is the choice of the others we do not know. .1 'he new constitution prepared by the execntive committee to be submit ted to this convention was read during the enrollment of the delegates. On motion it was to be published in the newspapers and brought up at the next convention for adoption. Mr. J. A. Sigh sent the followIng resolution to the secretary's desk, which was read and adopted without debate: Resolved 1, That our delegates to the State convention be instructed to sup port any proposed amendment to the Constitution of the Democratic party of the State, providing that all nomi nations for office in the party shall be by primary election, and that such pri mary election shall be held in every county the same day. Resolved 2, That the General Assem bly be requested to p)rovide by Statute for the conduct of said primiary elec tions, anld especially for the closing of all bar-rooms, and the prevention of drunkenness and disorder at the polls the same as on regular election days. Upon motion lof Dr. Pope the con vention adjourned sine die. Evervone should see Wright & J. W. Coppok's Uniderwear before purchas ing. It is as comfortable as ornamnen tl.

Langford will move into his new dwelling this week. Mrs Nina Norman, of Walhalla, is Dn a visit to the parental home in her ative town. Glad to have you with f us Nina, The new firm in town will be styled, chumpert & Crooks. Success to you boys. but you have a hard road to travel. Mr. James Wise, of the firm of Wise Bros., has returned from the North, where he has bought a large and well 5electecl stock of general merchandise, The Prosperity High School opened on Monday - with 47 scholars. The morning was very inclement hence the small number. The number of bales of cotton sold here for the year ending August 31st, 188, is 9,210. The number of bales sold since September 1st is 26. Price today, 8 @ 9 cents, Mr. James Schumpert has returned from the business college at Poukeepsie, N. Y. He took the full course pre scribed by that institution, and has his diploma. A certain young clerk in town, not out of his teens, asked a lady merchant the other day if she had any "stove scissors." Guess what that young man wanted? The rains-the pattering rains, have come at last, and exeunt drought and Intense heat. The mercury now remains in the bounds of a reasonable 1 living temperature. From the increase of force, and ex tension of shelving, we judge that our merchants are preparing for an un usually large trade. New goods are daily arriving and in the course of ten days every store will be "chock" full. Messrs. H. C. Moseley and S. S. 1 Birge are now in the northern markets making purchases of fall and winter goods. Geo. William says he intends buying the best selected and cheapest stock of goods that A. H. Kohn has ever offered to the public. He also thinks he may get him a New York girl to stand at his side and make change for him while he sells to his numerous customers. The author of that special in the Co lumbia Register of the 4th inst., either purposely misrepresented the people.of the lower section of the county or he is lamentably ignorant of thc' issues in volved; it may be that he is "sore" from the fact that he is not a delegate to the State Convention, or he may be "sore" over some past or future offe At any rate it is certainly in bad taste to try to foist such unwarranted reason8a on the opponents of Governor Richard son for exescising their views and pro - fessions. HERALDINGS FROM NO. 6. The health of the township is good. Dr. W. M. Dorroh is at home again. Miss Mary Burton will teach the Trinity school. Mr. K. D.

Rain in abundance, cotton opening very slowly, and very little picked in the township. Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Burton and Miss Ferguson, of Laurens, spent several days in the township last week. Our roads are not in good condition, and road working ought to be the order of the day. Our defeated candidate is doing very well. I believe he was only election eering for one vote. Whisky was used freely at the polls at Longshore's Store on the 28th ult. Will we ever get to the place where the candidate who puts the bottle to the voter's mouth will be left? TELL. MARRIAGES.

Pitnman and L. C. Hinton in the presence of a large assemblage. It was af 'ecting to see the young and oTd as tey gath ered around the bier and the grave with tear ful eyes and beautiful flowers as the offering of their affection and esteem. Mrs. Mahon made a profession of faith in Christ in early life under the ministry of Dr. Teasdale. She was a devoted and useful Christian, striking in person, cultivated in mind and heart, of pleasant disposition and manners. She was not only useful, but very attractive in every relation of life. And whether as a asor's wife, in the home, or church, or et, no one could be more missed in the community in which she lived. Her last illness was pro tracted and paininl, but It was borne with unusual submission, and patience, and hope The end was calm, undisturbed and peaceini. ' So fades a summer cloud away, so smnks the gale when storms are o'er, so gently shuts the eye of day; so dies a wave along the shore.
