By order of the grand Assizer, D. A and T. P. D. Order F. F. SOUTH CAROLINA XBW8. Georgia is advocating the claims of Senator Brown for the Chairmanship | a ^ C) has of the National Democratic Committee. Ex-Occupant of the White House, K. B. Hayes, is said to be a candidate for the postmastership of Fremont, his native town. The position pays a salary of $2,500. We would be glad if the President would appoint him and the Senate unanimously confirm the nomination. Mr. Hayes could then congratulate himself ou having good titles to the office. Governor Cleveland has had the moral courage to veto the bill to pro vide a pension at the rate of twelve dollars per month to the New York survivors of the Mexican war. Such measures are generally introduced and passed for political purposes, and here tofore no one has dared to refuse to Vote for them. Governor Cleveland has taken a departure, and the New York Herald compliments him for his firmness, courage and good sense. Alexander Sullivan, the recently elected President of the Irish National ague of America, is about thirty reaiw of age. He stumped Miclii- |(or the constitutional amendment ^to negroes the right of suffrage, tan active abolitionist. He was a jican until 1872, but at that time tie Liberal movement and sup- ireeley for the Presidency and since been a Democrat. He Haw with A. 8 Sullivan, of foi k, and has been for a number irs in successful practice in Sago. Greenville and Anderson are push ing their respective claims for the next session of the State Normal Institute. The former argues her larger popula tion, cool amt wholesome atmosphere, University buildings, street oars and omiiibnsses; the latter, that time about is fair play, and tliat Anderson affords ample facilities for tlie accommodation of all who may attend the session of the Institute. As to which the prefer ence should be given, if to eitlier, we arc not prepared to say, but at least the session should be held in some of the northern cities or towns of the State. A cool place should bo selected by all means. It is strange indeed that not a single applicant throughout the First Con gressional District (which Includes Charleston), applied for the appoint ment to the Naval Academy at An- «U?ty and well-selected board organized and equipped, met on the 27th ult., to pass upon the merits of the applicants. Of course the board adjourned sin* die. Mr. Dibble will now be justified in nominating a candidate of his own se lection. We hope some ambitious young man will be selected, whose course at Annapolis will reflect honor upon the appointee and credit upon the State. Toe New York Truth (Rep.) ap pears with a long editorial on the very significant question, “Is the Republi can party dead?” T'i'uth says it is a case of “suspended animation,” and that “recovery is almost impossible” be cause there is “blood poisoning.” Tim specific offered for the malady of the party is to turn out the “half-breeds.” The New York Herald, commenting upon the suggestion, says: “The plan seems to us to have great merit. It is a sure way to harmony, and harmony is what the party needs.” The preg nant question forces itself to the front, Can the Republicans afford to lose the Garfieid-Blaiue clement ot the party? If no objections arc heard from that quarter, certainly the Democrats noodn’t complain. Jefferson Davis, a short time ago, said to a correspondent of the Boston Herald, “That he did not like to be interviewed, because he is constantly being abnsed, maligned and vilified by the press.” He further said: “What le <ltio from mo by way of hospitality I shall only be too happy to extend to you, but wo must let politics alone. I am not a public man, nor am I public property. I %ra not a seeker for office nor is any office seeking me. I am a plain, private citizen, who in the eve ning oftys life desires to live in quiet and peace witli his neighbors, without molestation or outside interference.” Mr. Davis, report says, is growing very feeblo of late, his hair has become entirely white, and the old gentleman takes but little interest in the affairs around him. —Capt. J. A. Minnekin, of Bull Swamp, Orangeburg county, who is now in the seventy-first year of his invented an ingenious ma chine for nulling up stumps which is pronounced a success. —The stockholders of the Granite- ville Manufacturing Company held their annual meeting last week and re-elected the same officers. This com pany has paid during the past year a dividend of twenty-one per cent., which shows the profit a well managed factory can make in South Carolina. Senator Butler says that the most important economic question for the people of this State is the improvement of our public highways. He says he intends to stndy the subject and then give his views in one or more commu nications. If he devises a satisfactory system, he will justly be regarded as a public benefactor. —A murderous assault was made on Mr Edward Mnultbu, in York county last week, by Henry Blalock, colored, who attacked him with a knife, or with several knives in fact, and would have killed him but for the timely assistance rendered by several white persons present. He was finally dis armed and was sent to jail for trial. —The ginhouso on the late Mrs. Gilder’s place, in Edgefield county, was burned down on Tuesday night, the 17th ult., between twelve and one o’clock. There is no doubt that it was set on fire. A negro named Bob Grant was suspected, and the evidence Is pretty strong against him. He was arrested, but escaped from bis guard, and is now at large. This is the second ginhouso burned in that section re cently. —In 1882, 4.000 liens of all kinds were filed in the clerk’s office at Abbe ville, averaging one hundred dollars each, making $400,000; up to this date in I88tl 3,600 have been tiled, averng- niucty dollars each, making $.'5’24,000, which leaves a balance so far in favor of 1883 of $76,000. More liens will he filed, perhaps enough to make up the deficiency. Not more than half as much corn has been shipped to that place up to the present date as was shipped up to the same date last year. —The committee of twelve citizens appointed by the town council of Cam den to consider the application of the Monumental Association to place the monument in the centre of Broad street where it crosses Laurens street on Mrnumental Square, have decided that there is no reason why permission should not be granted. Capt. C. C. Haile and Mr. T. R. Cantoy, surveyors, decided that the removal of the can non, which is now the main landmark of the town, would not interfere with any surveys of the town. Work upon the foundation for the monument is to commence at once. —Anderson’s prospect for a factory is brightening. No formal subscrip tion list has vet been started, but is expected to begin at an early day. Several large subscriptions have been promised from business men in that city, and a great many smaller ones are expected. The planters around An- iutcrest in the enterprise, and several of them have promised various sums, ranging from one hundred to two thousand dollars. Altogether, things look decidedly encouraging just now. —On Monday afternoon, tho 28rd ult., an encounter took place between Mr. T. Cartmill and Mr. P. P. John son while they were going to their homes in the Fork from Orangeburg, in which the latter was killed. It is said that they become involved in an altercation ou the road, and words led to blows, and a struggle ensued with the result mentioned. Mr. Johnson’s throat was ent and his face was badly S ashed. Tho matter excites a great eal of interest on account of tho fact that both of the parties concerned are well known in the community. Cart- mill can’t be found, and it is supposed that he has fled, but his wife, who is charged with being an accessary, has been arrested and lodged in jail. —Mr. Albert Guerry, flic artist, has now on exhibition at his studio his masterly portraits of John C. Calhoun and William C. Preston. These por traits belong to one of the literary societies of Wofford College, which is certainly fortunate in the possession of such wonderful productions of artistic skill. No words of ours can do jus tice to the genius which has preserved for coining generations the striking features of Carolina's greatest states man and greatest orator. Of Cal houn’s portrait, Col. James H. Rioli, of Winnsboro, who probably knew tlie great original better than any man now living, says: “I prefer it to any likeness I have ever seen of him. The coloring, posture, expression, and even tho dress are truthful. All the full length paintings I have seen give an erectncss of posture and an appearance of self-assertion that are not natural. The slight stoop and appearance of unmindfulncss of self in your paint ing are true to life. What strikes me most is the expression, and I must say I am curious to know how you could have so truthfully portrayed it. It is not his expression when in the anima tion of conversation or siteakiug, hut when in deep abstraction of thought. When so abstracted his eyes had an enlarged appearance as if looking upon no particular object, bnt gazing into the far distance, his mouth compressed, and all his (eaturcs evincing his deep conviction of the truth of momentous conclusions, to which his reflections were leading him.” Ho Whiskey! Brown’s Iron Bitters id one of the very few tonic medicines that are not com posed mostly of alcohol or whiskey, thus becoming a fruitful source of intemper ance by promoting a desire for rum. Brown’s Iron Bitters is guaranteed to be a non intoxicating stimulant, and it will, in nearly every case, take the place of all liquor, and at the same time abso lutely kill the desire for whiskey and other intoxi cating beverages. - Rev. G. W. Ric®, editor of the Atnerican Christian Re view, says of Brown’s Iron Bitters: Cln.,0.,Nov. 16, i88i. GentsThe foolish wag ing of vital force in business, pleasure, and vicious indul gence of our people, makes your preparation a necessity; and if applied, will save hue ■ dreds who resort to saloons for temporary recuperation.
