Seventy-nine ^?didates were voted for at the Primary, twenty seven of whom were running for Conn ty Commissioner however, the pop irfanry of ona was somewhat limited, he having received - but two votes. We aOppose bis political aspirations were forever nipped by this cruel reverse. ? -iQfcf?W* Cleveland's letter of accept? ance is: just what it should be-clear, %$$est and conerse. But few public ?fn "emu point to a more consistent re -corcL as the enemy of fraud and trick* ccry/tsan .-Grover Cleveland ; and our poBtieallife would receive a wonderful ^mpetus should be be elected. Every honest man should work for his success. Primaries are all the rage now io our Sute-. Almost every day we hear of tome new election. The State is one ~'vgn from the mountians to sea board, and each day, hundreds of patriots are telling the people in 4peeebes of fervid eloquence her badly tfey want ?fice. Wc expect that is the reason for enroot, dry weather. : Boiler the Beast is out with his letter of acceptance to the Presidenta! nomi? nation. It is directed to Ol y con st i t tfewts* and covers six closely printed a?umns of solid matter. Bo tells ali Wt JL&OWS, has a panacea for all the ills .f tne liody politic and closes with a ?j?K?D?address to the Democratic Par .f 4)f Massachusetts, O he is a lovely gstfeietanf There is nothing like unto ss* jnpoa- the earth, in the heavens ?d*e the earth or ra the waters below. ^Bbe?jOaisTT??e correspondent of thc Chronieie and Coftstitvt tonnait st t speak if&of a paper published there says its adkortab taste like a beefsteak flavored with chili sauce, and the paragraphing is endowed with that literary abandon tuat creates lunger of the mind as soon ii "the newsboy conics in sight. Is:ow ?atVthe kind ef paper to have at Breakfast, if thc bH4 of Jare does not suit just tumble the whole thing out of tho window and make a chaste repast ont of those beefsteak editorials and tawing paragraphs. Ahoot a month ago news of Gen. Gordon's death was received and wide? ly and sympathetically commented on. Aod now the General writes that he is Jj^fio means dead. Be says he rs safe and everything is tranquil, and asks for new? of the exp?dition-for his relief. He riso says he intends to remain at Khartoum, harassing the rebels by steamers until the expedition arrives. Gordon gives warning that thc Nile -fir nc fri are very rapid and dangerous j at present Every body and the Torips j especially were pitching into Gladstone j fer laving Gordon to his fate but G lad- j stone seems to bc on the winning side j sswso&l. \We saw, some weeks ago a statc mcnt that Governor Robinson of Massa ehttsetts had issued a requisition upon the Governor of Illinois for F. I. Moses, whilom Governor of South Carolina, charged with obtauing money kl a fraudulent manner from several j ?ft?seos of Massachusetts. Governor ? Robinson is not consistent, for when j this same F. I. Moses, some years ago ] was obtaining many thousands of dollars j from the people of South Carolina, by j fraud and trickery, Robinson and bis < party defended him as a good Itcpubii- j U ls it any worse to steal a few ! Ired dollars from the wealthy citi- j of Massachusetts than many thou- j sands from Carolinians ? v : Gen. B. F. Butler, in his letter of I acceptance, speaking of himself says : j .3Too will have one adv::.:tage j hi yonr candidate-you will have i to spend no time defending j hi?. His doings have been known to ! die country for more than a quar?er of! ?century. Every act of his life ha? ! bees under a microscope lighted by thc ! Jarid fires of hate and slander. Ile is fti unharmed, and has no opinion to la?c back, no policy recant, and no jost charge to explain for what he has doce either in peace or war.' Most of the above is true. With a cast iron! cuticle, a check of brass and utterly j Toid of conscience, nothing short of a j stroke of lighting could interrupt the j serene march of the .Beast' in its career j fi absolute andsclSsh villiany. When Col. Tillman made his speech j of thanks, after hu late re-nomination, j lie SO far forgot what was due to him- j self as well as to his audience as to ! make an attack upon prohibition aud i the advocates of temperance. Mr. ? ??iman bas a reputation for courage I i? speaking bis convictions, and he ' a?y tbink that this insult to thc tem? perance sentiment of his constituency will he looked upon as only another proof of that courage. Wc think how? ever, that thc temperance voters in ! < Col. Tillman's District will, when thc | time for the next election comes on, rc- j Kember bis want of prudence or want j j of sense, whichever it may be, and put ! ss ?mi sot so brave. If our law- j i makers only had sufficient coroprcben- | sion to see it, the temperance senti- j ment is not a passing whim, buta very deep conviction that has come to stay. The New York Sun through its cor? respondents and in its editorial columns j has at least fifty times repeated thc stale { lie that Cleveland was nominated by j the Republican malcontents of New York. The fact is, Cleveland's name j has been mentioned as a probable Pres- I ideutial candidate ever since he was chosen Governor of Now York, and as soon as people fouud that the Ghost of Greystone would not be a candidate, public opinion has been crystallizing around him as a suitable man for thc reform President. OUR PBXM?BY. We have seen in our exchanges, evi? dences of discontent in *ome of thc counties in which primary elections' have been held, caused, it is said by ! sharp practice on the part of some j of thc voters; and we refer to this i matter so that our people may be on their guard agaiost the very appearance of evil. We believe the Primary System the most satisfactory plan of arriving at the wishes of the people but there is so roach cumbrous machinery about it, that many oppose it because of its in? convenience ; and if sharp practice and trickery be added to these objections, j the people will look upon it with still j greater suspicion in the future. Let every Democrat, and moro cspe- j cially the candidates and election ofii jeers consider^ themselves honor bound j to oppose anything that savors of j crookedness on election day, for if the j nominees expect an enthusiastic support j from the Democrats of the County, they must be able to show a clear record as j to the ways and means by which their Domination was received. Bolting has become so fashionable in politics that many persons who are not strict party j men rather enjoy straying into other j pastures. We think such an act a j serious mistake for any Democrat in the present campaigu, but there are many who do not think sc and they will vote as they think, regardless of thc party j lash if th -y are convinced that fraud is j used in thc Democratic fight. And j now that we have preached our sermon j we will close by urging every Democrat io the County to come out aud vote the } 6th of September. Heigiiboricg Counties. Clarendon Enterprise : Primary j election oo Tuesday 2nd September, j -At thc school house on Capt.

M. j Every delegate should be on hand at j that hour -The cotton worm has j appeared in some of the fields iu the ? eastern portion of this county. No ; alarm has been caused by its presence, j as most of the cotton has done all that j it can do this year, and is now shed- j ding off its leaves. If thc worms eat all t.he leaves it will only make the cit- j ton open sooner than usual, and not j lessen thc crop either. Florence Times: On Friday last a ! tramp applied to a lady for something j to eat, and thc family were at dinner j The lady filled a plate and sent it to the ! man, when he returned it. saying that j if he could not be allowed to come in i and eat at thc table, he would not ac- j ccpt the proffered meal. Such ?mpu- i dence is unheard of, and if cur people ! would refuse to help these vagabonds, I it would forced them to seek some ero- ! ploy meut for a livelihood. -Work ? on tlie artesian well is progressing \ steadily. A delay was occasioned last, i week, after reaching a depth of eighty- j five feet, by thc pipe refusing to go \ down, aud it was withdrawn and rc- j sunk, since which time everything has ? been working: smoothly. Pieces oft wood were brought to ?hi.' surface from ! a depth of otto hundred feet, and in- ; foresting developments have been made '. in the different .-trata through which the boring has passed.

Cooper then picked up a hoo as j if to drive him out of the yard. Aaron j resisted apd Cooper dropped the hoe I and started back in his house. Aaron seized the hoe, ran up behind Cooper, struck him on the top of the head with tiic eye of thc hoe, breaking Cooper's skull. The negro ran off and has not yet been arrested. Trial Justice Camp? bell immediately issued a warrant, and a posse have been searching over si ?iee, but up to 9 o'clock Tuesday night Aaron had not been caught. It is thought 'nc is in Sumter County Tho difficulty originated from Aaron accus? ing Cooper's children of stealing ronst iug ears, and went to Cooper's house with the sad result above stated. South Carolina College. Mr. Editor : Allow me to call the attention j of parent? thinking of sending sons to College j in tho Fall to the advantages of the South j Carolina College. What is said arises from j no objection to, nor intended as invidious | comparison with, other colleges: all have j their proper spheres to fiil and there should j bc antagonism between none. ? would he most happy to see the walls of all lilied to their uimost capacity with students. Unfor- j tnnately, this is not so; but it it not for thc j want of competent professors. The three causes more apparent than any other ore, i first, the inability of oar people generally to bear the expenses of sending even one out of j a famiiy of several boys through College ? j second, the want of preparatory schools at j :ome; and third, tie want of proper npprc- j ciation by parents generally of the great j advantages derived from higher education. ! , i On this latter subject, good essays are being j continually written by Juniors and Seniors : butl fear it will take much more than these to arouse our people to that sentiment which made our little State, before the war, great among j greater States: her sons foremost in the ! councils of the Nation in all learned pro fes-j sionsand the walks of science; and without which our beloved St?te must he left bt-lund in that race of progress in which such giant strides are now being made. Pur ray pur? pose is merely to make more iprn^rally known that ihe State Ins furnished at her Capitol a College which will compare 1'avoraUy with any in our country, and has obviated as far as she can the want of pecuniary means of pa ; rents, and of preparatory schools in the coan- ; try. The Faculty cf the South Carolin:; College is now fall iu ?ill aejnirtinents, consisting of Dr. McBryde, President and Professor of Agriculture, having Mr. Sam!. J.

Without giving the particular studies of j these shorter courses suffice it to say that the object is to meet by them thc cases of those who cannot take more tuan two years, yei wish to give that time to preparation for some special business in life. There are also Elective Courses in which parents may elect j such studies of different courtes as they rm y prefer, with concurcnee of the Faculty. Al present there is and may be continued for a couple of years, a 5?t-Collegi;?te Class: in which any student deficient, when enter? ing, on particular studious, may make up the deficiency, if he can. and put himself abreast ot' his class in ail it studies.

A negro named David Aaron, became en? gaged ia a difficulty with Mr. Edward Cooper, a white mau near Cartcrsville, ahout five miles from this place, in Darlington County, last Tuesday, in which Mr. Cooper was chop? ped in the head with a hoe, inflicting a ghastly wound which is pronounced fatal by Dr. Palmer of Cartcrsville. The negro fled but was captured in Clarendou County near the Turpentine farms of the Messrs. Peirson. Mr. RobertTuncil and brother, while on their way from the back swamps of Ly tidies River to Lynchburg, last Friday, killed a large rattle? snake measuring six feet long. If we only knew which of the brothers acted as principal in the slaughter we would certainly give him the title of colonel, and be up to the times by yelling out three cheers for Col. Tuncil.

PRICED CREAM BAKING POWDER tl* lest in all] !hese respects. I have just made another examination of the "Royal,"! "Andrews' Pearl"5 and ' Dr. Price's Cream,7' and the results are ! the same as formerly. DR. PRICE'S CREAM is free from1 AMMONIA, while the "Royal and Andrews' Pearl*' both con-! tain Ammonia. The final reaction of DR. PRICE'S CREAM is acid, while the "Royal" and "Pearl'' give an ALKALINE ! reaction, which LEADS to DYSPEPSIA. " Price's is a pure, I clean and elegant proportion of Cream of Tartar and Bicarbo- j nate of Soda, and there does "in no wise enter into it anything j that deiileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or j maketh a lie." In raising power "Price's" stands at the head. The relative amount of Carbonic Acid Cas dven off by the same weight (10 grammes) of these powders, heated in the j same wav. is as follows: Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder, - G50 cubic centimeters. \ The Roval..GOO cubic centimeters. I Andrews' Pearl, - - 543 cubic centimeters, j I have used PRICE'S in my family for years. "Even if j the price is higher PRICE'S is always the best.*7 PROF. R. C. KEDZIE. Lansing, June 3, 18S4.
