well call the December Peterson. It
is the handsomest number we have
ever seen of this excellent magazine—
a hint of what may be expected for
1891, which will be its fiftieth anni
versary. The “Cupid” on the title-
page is an enchanting little fellow,
and the steel and full-page wood-
engravings are very beautiful. The
opening illustrated article, “Some Ice
Carnival Sketches,” is in Harriet
Latham’s sprightliest vein. “A
Problem Never Solved,” is the best
story we hare ever read from Edgar
Fawcett’s facile pen. “From Christ
mas to Christmas,” is a capital tale
with a series of admirable illustra
tions. “Along Lake Como” is anoth
er finely illustrated paper. These
are only a few of the number's at
tractions. Lncy H. Hooper’s Paris
letter gives the newest fashion chit
chat, and the colored plate and other
designs the latest styles for out-door
and home wear. ’I'he needle-work

Gordon and Hampton.
The legislature of Georgia has
given Macune and his crowd a black
eye by electing Gen. Gordon United
States Senator instead of Pat Calhoun
who suddenly developed us the Alli
ance candidate. Gen. Gordon and
Mr. Norwood had conducted a bitter
campaign, but when the Norwood
faction found out that Macune was
trying to run Pat Calhoun as the Al
liance candidate they rallied to Gor
don’s 8iip]H>rt and the old war horse
was elected on the first ballot. The
Georgians are certainly to be congrat
ulated upon Gordon’s election. We
hope the Georgia legislature has set
the South Carolina Legislature a
good example and that Wade Hamp
ton will be elected to succeed himself.
If Gordon deserves to be sent back
to the Senate from Georgia on ac
count of his services to the State,
Hampton deserves even more at the
hands of his State. The cry these
days is to send to the rear those who
fought in the war, because, as some
of the new fangled leaders say, they
are behind the times and young, pro
gressive men should take their places.
In the first place, it may be doubted
whetherer they are more progressive
than their Democratic predecessors.
They have just entered th; arena.
In the second place, what ha’-e they
done in comparison to the sacrifices
which Wade Hampton and men of
his stamp have made for constitu
tional law and state rights. The
tendency to, despise war records,
which is growing among us,' shows a
low state of political morality and
speaks badly for the people that cul
tivate it. Nothing that a man can
do gives him a greater claim on his
countrymen, other things being pret
ty much equal, than distinguished
and uselfish service in time of war.
Therefore, it would be a stigma on
the fair name of South Carolina
should her Legislature elect a man
to succeed Senator Hampton who has
nothing whatever to recommend him
for the position. .. . •
l*>-r me 0. 8. Senate.
State Chairman Irby has just
loomed up as a candidate for the
United States Senate to succeed Wade
Hampton. People have been won
dering for a long time what position
Irby was after, and now the mystery
seems to have been solved. If he
has succeeded in making Tillman
believe that he (Irby) is the right
man for the place and that Tillman
should rest of his laurels for a while
he is a sharp fellow. We know J.
L. M. Irby is a sharp politician, and
he is as unscrupulous as he is sharp.
The State has already been disgraced,
but if the Legislature elects Irby to
the Senate our humiliation and dis
grace will be complete. Let us hope,
but we are afraid it will be a vain
hojx*. that gCme conservatism will be
displayed and that Senator Hampton
w ill be re-elected.
A Good Party Man.
[National Reformer]
“Hois' a good party’man.” “Al
ways been true to his party.” These
are expressions one often hears in
modern days. It is deemed as very
essential in the choice of candidates
to nominate a man who has never
swerved from his allegiance to his
party. This may all be very good in
its way, but when it is made the
qualification par excellence, it be
comes the fruitful source of many
evils. The base and venal, the cor
rupt and unscrupulous can present
as good, and in many, instances bet
ter, claims for support at the hands
of their party than the most upright
and conscieneious of its adherents.
The pure statesman and honest citi
zen will endeavor to keep his party
from falling into the pitfalls of cor
ruption and yielding to the tempta
tions so often presented to serve the
interests of certain classes. In doing
so, he will frequently find himself
a itagonizing a large portion, if not
a majority of the representatives of
his party. Honor demands of him
that he should do everything in his
power to keep the record of his party
clean; but an imperial custom de
mands that he should stultify his
manhood and obey the dictates of
his party caucus. Thus the highest
prizes of socirty are held out to the
most unscrupulous. One of the
great needs of the hour is men who
will not be bound or influenced by
party caucus.

Thanksgiving Proclamation.
By the grace and favor of Almighty
God the people of this nation have
been closing the days of the passing
year, which has been full of the
blessings of peace and the comforts
of plenty. Bountiful compensation
has come to us for the work of our
minds and of our hands in every de
partment of human industry. Now
therefore, I, Benj. Harrison, Presi
dent of the United States of Ameri
ca, do hereby appoint Thursday, the
27th day or the present month of
November, to be observed as a day of
prayer and thanksgiving, and I do
invite the people, npon that day to
cease from their labors to meet in
their accustomed houses of worship,
and to join in rendering gratitude
and praise to our Beneficent Creator
for tne rich blessing He has given to
us as a nation, and invoking the con
tinuance of His protection and grace
for the future.
I commend to my fellow citizens
the privilege of remembering the
poor, the homeless and the sorrowful
Let us endeavor to merit the prom
ised recompense of charity and gra
cious acceptance of our praise.
In testimony whereof I have here
unto set my hand and caused the
seal of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington,
this eighth day of November, in the
rear of our Lord, oue thousand eight
hundred and ninetv, and of the in
dependence of the United.States one
hundred and fifteenth.

Gov. Kichardaon’s Thanksgiv
ing Proclamation.
In the providence of Almighty
God, the year, now drawing to a close,
pall. %> r cn our people to offer the
sacrifices of praiseand thanksgiving.
The year has been crowned with
the goodness of the Lord in the in
crease of the ground, and the gather
ing of a bountiful harvest; in the
prosperity of all departments of
business; in the flourishing condi
tion of our schools and colleges; in
the universal health which has gen
erally prevailed throughout the State,
and in the many mercies vouchsafed
to us by an over-ruling Providence.
No greater stimulus can be imparted
to a people than a sense of their de
pendence upon a gracious superin
tendence of their affairs by an all
wise Benefactor and Redeemer.
To accept the truth of revelation,
that all things work together for
good to those who acknowledge God
and serve Him, is an inspiration to
labor and to pray, a guarantee
those blessings which are certain
the obedient and the thankful.
The very ground of a nation’s
joicing is that Almighty God gov
ems righteously, the pledge of a
State’s increase and prosperity, that
praise Him “in His noble acts” and
“according to His excellent great
ness.”
The hope of every well-ordered
family is the hope of every well-or
dered State—that her sons may grow
up as young plants to bear the*fruits
of a true manhood, and her daughters
may be as cornerstones, polished after
the similitude of a palace, that her
garners may be full and plenteous,
that her sheep may bring forth
thousands and ten thousands, that
her oxen may be strong to labor, no
leading into captivity and no com
plaining in the steets.
The wise man who expresses this
universal hope bids us remember that
its fullest realization is assured to
every people “who have the Lord for
their God.”
Now, therefore, I. J. P. Richard
son, Governor of the State of South
Carolina, do hereby appoint and set
apart Thursday, the 27th of Novem-
ber, as a day ot general thanksgiving
to Almighty God, and invite our peo-
C le of every denomination to assem-
le on that day in their respective
G « of worship and render the
the praise and gratitude which
are so justly due unto Him and so
becoming in ourselves who are His
people and the daily beneficiaries of
His providence.
In testimony whereof I have here
unto set my hand and caused the
great seal of the State to be affixed,
at Columbia, this seventeenth day of
November, A. D. 1890, and in the
one hundred and fifteenth year of the
Independence of the United States of
America.
