article in lbs Advocate and was
j very much taken with it at iirst. His

that white folks were already too scarce
I in iiiis rrmntrr. and. besides, there aie
j ii good many- of these "moccasins", I
i au? if they arc all "kicked" into a i

i would be calculated to get up a bad |

lives. Mr. H. \V. Desportes last
night killed one with a slick as the |
animal was coming from under aj
bridge near the residence of Mr. li. D. j
Dolick. Mr. Desportes mistook it for ;
an opossum, but he was soon undo- j
ceived whan he lifted the animal by j
the tail. Jir. Desportes presented the
vauskratto Mr. Mars Cooper, who'
this morning stuffed it to praserre it. I
The animal measured a little over two
I'ect fiom lip to tip. The skin is said
to be worth several dollars.

LET US GET TOGETHER.
Messrs. Editor: ? doubt it seems
strange to many ?f your readers that
tto Iiutc two distinct factions iu tlic
Democraticparty, but however strange ;
it may seem nevertheless it is true. I
which, in my humble opinion, is a
very serious thing.
Situated as we are, having the negro j
element either to be bid for bv the'
factioMS or run in opposition to us, j
which means ruin either way.
The BejjTO is virtually out of politics,
and I say keep hiui out, and the
only tray to do it is for the white
people to be united, and I h?pe before
.inr further vrronirs mar be perpe- j
(rated by either faction to widen the j
breach that -rrc will be united a.s we
were i? *7Gr when we give that grand
rally, not a> a faction, but as a whole,
which resulted in victory for the
Democratic party. I thiuk our situation
at present more serious than
prior to TO. For then it was white
man against negro; but now it is
white man against white man. Yes.
n-rtvci tii-j'i tir. is father against
son ami ?on against father; houses I
arc divided: and house divided against
it--If cannot stand. Mar God speed
the day when a r* conciliation vrill be
brought about and unity restored.
"Woe be unto thai man who shall throw

so much as a stra-jr in the way. Better
for Soutii Carolina that that man had
never been hern, or that a millstone
were hanged about his neck and he
thrown into the middle of the sea. I
am anxious t? s?e peace and harmony
restored in our ranks. So I have a
proposition to suggest, which will not
be asking any condescension from
either faction." but to meet on equal
ground*, and it is simply this:
Let the two County Chairmen - call
the two Executive Committees .together
and order a prk.ary election
for the purpose of electing a Couiuy
Chairman and an Executive Committee,
allowing- each club to elect its
own committeeman, not for Gov.
Tillman er Col. Haskell or any particular
man, or set of men, but for
the good and welfare of the Democratic
party. Lei; the'cry for conservative
men to the front go up above
this dear old lawl of ours; for if they
were ever needed it is now. For now
is the acceptcd time. Xo tirac to say
who was right, or who was wrong,
but let lis try and improve in the
future by the errors of the past, aad
let brotherly love exist in all of our j
lawful ar?ealions, and we will be al
better, happier, and msrc prosperous
people. i>. ii.
