A rumor was floating in our streets ye,s
erdav evening that a meeting was t?? b
held iast night for the purpose of organ
(zing another Democratic elub in on
town. For the sake of good Democracy
evc hope the rumor was unfounded. Ab
fville already has a well organized clui
'hose doors are wide enough and whosi
intensions fire ample enough to accom
nodate all good Democrats. We need n<
ther club hero. There is no limit to th<
uembership roll of the club already ii
txHtonoe, and its ollicers are men whosi
lead all good citizens should be willim
jo follow. No deubt we had a secomi
rlub here in '7G?a "young men's club;'
but the new club spoken of cannot pro
jess to be a revival of Club No. 2, for it;
ncmbers assisted iU the re-organizatioi
pf Club No. 1 this year and one of then
wt as a delegate therefrom in the Count}
Convention. It cannot be a young men'!
Iub, for the club already existing is pre
(led over by a young man, and vounj
len are represented in it to a prepondcr
ing degree. Besides, no public sum
,ons has Jieen given to the young met
[ the town?of whom we ourselves are ;
wt; and surely if the purposes of the
umorcd club are fair and pure, the or
ranization should not be kept secret
*io advertisement, no placard, no circular
o far as we know has been issued calling
oung men to the meeting.
There are manv objections to the form

f its usolessness. It would ho unfair t<
lie county clubs, many of whom outminbor
the Abbeville club. Tho seven
otc's in the County Convention to whicl:
t .would be entitled would give AbbevilU
indue influence. Already Abbeville has
utUcient weight ami influence in t!u
'ounty Convention, and we are undis>osc?d
to favor any movement that would
iicrca.se that influence and crowd out and
eigh down the influence of the country
elegates. If Abbeville have fourteen
otes why should not Cokesbury or
reenwood or Ninety-Six have fourteen
ach? In justice to the other clubs in tho
ounty, 110 second club should be formed
ere. even ifthe*>UK?r looij plubs were
rilling to ifivo the Court House so great
n advantage.
We sec no good reason fera new club.

TUc man vvlio has so little judgment as no
to know that property must be raided o

one Iivini; upon it possesses of disposing <?
tlie productions raised upon it to advutitagi
in an accessible market, must certainly bi
one of those grcon-cyed fellows who speni
more time in meddling with other people'
business than in trying to Inform themselve

economy.
The prosperity of a people depends vcri
much upon Industry and good common sense
and he who is a foe to the one must be a foi
to the other also. We want n sample of anti
helium days, but that sample can never bi
procured hy obeying or tolerating the com
maiuls of Ignorance and stupldityl We wan
energy, ln'dustry, and enterprise, these mora
virtues are the only salvation of our country
Wheu we can behold the present system o
butchering the soil disappear before an en
lightened system of agriculture, the houses
brluges, and roads assume an appearance o
private and public thrift and enterprise, thei
will our lands be enhanced In value, and our

^ ^on*
The reputation it has attained, in <consequence
of the marvellous cares it
has produced during the. last half century,
Is a sufficient assurance to the
public that it .\vill continue to realize
the happiest results that can be desired.
In almost pV?ry section of couatry r there
arcpdrsons, publicly knbWti, who"
have been restored from alarming and
even desperate diseases of the lungs, -
by Its use. All who have tried It acknowledge
Its superiority; and where
its virtues arc known, no one hesitates
as to what medicine to employ to relieve
tho distress and suffeirlng peculiar
to pulmonary affections. CiiEimv Pectoral
always affords iustaut relief, and..
performs rapid cures of the milder va- .
rietles of bronchial disorder, as well as
the more-formidable diseases" of the "
lungs. j...*-.. *- . I
- As a safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset
the Throat ana Chest of Childhood, it
Is Invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudes arc rcscucd and restored to health.
This medicine gains friends at
every trial, as the cures it Is constantly
producing arc too remarkable to be
forgotten. * No family should bo with*
out it, and those wli<x liavc oucc used
it never will.
Eminent Physicians throughout the
country prescribe it, oud Clergymen
often recommend it fion their iuiowledgo
