Professor Kennedy and Captain Cochran
are supposed to have received the
votes of those who refused to vote for j
General McGowan ? these nine votes _ii.
controlling the action of the Club as far b.
as the General was concerned.
As soon as the result of the nomination jwas
made known the friends of Gen.
McGowan expressed their dissatisfaction,
some of whom we are informed immerii- K
ately withdrew from the meeting. After Dj_
which the mooting nominated J. F. C. ^

. We wore not present at tho meeting of me
the Club, and cannot vouch for the ex- ^
actneaa of the report, but give it upon in- jjei
formation which is eenerallv accepted as rrK
correct. The opposition to General McGowau
at Abbeville is supposed to havo js g
been tally represented. tJrj;
The weak opposition, only nine, as fic{
well as well as toe prompt and decided t^e
action of the gentlemen who have withdrawn
from the club, show moat conclu ively
the real hold which he has upon
the hearts of his neighbors, who know
Lira beet. By common consent, tho
wishes of Ninety-Six, Lowndeaville and
other sections are to be respected and we 1
seo no good reason why theso localities ?re
should disregard the almost unanimous OQ1
. ~ wisb|of Abbeville. According to the rule ad;
of geographical politics, Abbeville is en- oth
titled to a Representative, and our Th<
nominee should receive that considera- ccn
tion from others which we accord to con
them. Abbeville has not dictated to any
elnb whom they shall nominate. We
have only expressed our own preference. T
At the proper time shall show our respect me
for the wishes of others. nig

Sad Accident?A Fearful Leap. S
Last Monday afternoon, Mr. John
nox, one of the principal merchants of J
La town, together with Mrs. Knox, and
r sister, Mrs. Motte, went driving in t
i baggy. As they were descending the *
il beyond the residence of W. H. Par- c
r, Esq., in the direction of Long Cane n
lurch, the harness broke or became dis- ti
atod in some wav. The vehicle ran o
on the horse. The horse instantly b
jiped into the gulley on the side of the s<
id which is ton or "twelve feet deep, u
rying the vehicle and occupants after tl
n, nearly killing a whole family. Mrs.
jtte's Bkull was fractured, and her a
lole body and liinbs from the shoulders si
? paralyzed from injuries received, a
rs. Knox's injuries wcro prin- V
ally internal. The buggy having C
len on her in sotno way "or having v
ssed over h^r body, inflicting injuries r
lich it is feared may prove fatal. Yes- t<
day her symptoms" were not at all sat- tl
nctory. Sir. Knox himself was much ti
inaed"about the head, the thii?h and the fi
and has suffered greatly since the ac- v,
lent. cj
\.t the time of the occurencc some ne- tt
) children were playingon the grounds w
Ittle way off, who reported the aeci- s<
lit to thctr mother who ran with all pos- a;
ile speed to their relief, but Mr. Knox's si
11 dog which had followed the buggy Iold
not allow her to approach to ren- n
r needed relief. The fact was then re- ai
rted to Mr. Parker's family who at fc
oe hurried to the scene. Mr.'and Mrs. oi
iox were romoved from the gulley and w
iced in their buggy, when the colored C
>ple who had assembled drew it home, fl
s. Motte being in an unconscious state w
s placed on a litter and carried to Mr. Si
iox's residence. ir
)rs. Templeton and Parker were im- m
diately summoned, and ever since cl
/e been untiring in their effort* to ro- s<
re the sufferings of the unfortunates, fr
e neighbors appreciating the condition ai
i household, every member of which tl
to great a sufferer, have been unremit- a
5 in their attentions and kindly of- w
:s. Monday night friends sat with w
m during the whole of the night, and tl
t night numbers were ready and
cious to render any service possible. fo

Sensible Talk on an Important Subject.
Editors Prtss and Banner .
An idea is gaining some currency ia
his county that a moment's reflection
vill convinco any one is false and mishievous
in its tendency, namely, that in
lominating candidates'for tho Legislate
reference must bo had to the section
ftho county in which they live; that Ab eville
Court House must have a rcpreentative,
the lowor Savannah one, the
ipper Savannah another, and so on
n rough.
If this plan of choosing candidates be
dopkxl und persisted in, Abbeville will
r>on be degraded from what it has been,
nd ought to be into,'a third-rate County,
^hat prescriptive right has Abbeville
Ourt House or Ninety-Six, or Donaldsille,
or Bordeaux, or Lowndsvlllo to a
epresentative? Has it come down
) this, that a man must owe to
le accident of his residence his elovaion
to an office of honor? The idea is as
ilse as sin, it is monstrous, it is at war
ith tho cardinal principles of republi
in government. We do not ciect a man
> honor him or to please the section in
rhich ho lives. Why should one ropresntative
be elected from Cokesbury and
aother from Due West, if Cedar Springs
tiould happon to have two better men ?
iet every man ask himself, "who will
lost worthily represent us?" Let him
nswer the question honestly and vote
>r those men, and we need have no fear
f the result. If this course bo pursued
e shall be able to send a delegation to
olumbia next Fall that will not only roect
credit upon Abbeville County, but
ill promote the interests of the whole
tato. Nothing in politics is ho debasig
and demoralizing as geographical
ominations. They causo rings and
iquos to be formed; they promote
. homing and wire-pulling; they are the
ultful source 01 sectional jealousies and
limosities. Lot us select our best men,
ioso who aro honest, intelligent, and inependent;
who are acquainted with the
ante of their county; who can and will
ork most faithfully and efficiently for
ie good of the whole State.
Let no locality presume to offer a man
r the suffrages of the people unless he
the peer of any other in the country in
lese respects, and if one club can offer
x Ruch men we can do no better than to
ect them all. Let us repudiate the idea
' restraining any club to one candidate
of electing ono number from a section
allhazzaras reguardless of his qualifiitions.

an infallible eurejfor colic In horses
nrnles or cattle. This preparation was pattentod
June 30, 1869, and In tbe short time
M-hlch has elapsed since has attained a rcpu
tatlon un equaled by any patented medicine I
on the globe. We nave In our possession tes- :
tlmonliufi from numerous persons who have
used it: 1
I have bad two occasions to use McCords
Colic Mixture In coses that seemed desperate. ,
The success In curing was apparently maglo- ,
al. it Is administered without trouble or do- .
lay, Is speedy in action, and I think Is so val- ,
uable that every person who manages horses
or mules should kecd It at hand.
D. L. WARDLAW. ,
I saw Mr. McCord nse h!s medicine on a )
mare that had been travelling, und was seiz- '
ed with cnunp colic. The animal was dropping
down f. equently and in great pain. In <
a short time after the medicine was given?In i
ten minutes, nt the farthest,?the animal was
ncssrd nnd driven oft", and learned subncoucntly
she performed the Journey and had (
no more colic.

I have had one occasion to use McCord'e (
Colic Mixture. It was very effective and I
think is an excellent medicine.
