The Legislature.
Next Monday our delegates will leave j
for Columbia, to be present at the meet-j
ing of the Legislature, which takes place;
on the following Tuesday. The Legisla- j
ture as now composed will be made upj
largely of new members, or members j
who have not participated in legislative j
honors for years. From our own County J
wo return two members of the Wallace
House, two members who served in the
Legislature before the war, and send one]
new member who goes to the General j
Assembly for his first term. As far as|
.? ?'Wtrftre-mformed there is no very impor-1
tant legislation to be enacted, and we pre
Rume that the wisdom and experience
which the old members will bring to that j
body will enable the General Assembly
to discharge their duty to the State in
an acceptable manner and in a reasonable
length of time. Among other matters
which will command the earl}- attention
of the Legislature, will be the recent action
of the State Board of Equalization,
and the subject of taxation; the re-enactment
of the lien law will probably be i
urged ; the phosphate business will come
?n nimin: the no-fence law will probably j
be passed ; the election of a Circuit Judge!
to fill Judge Shaw's place will not be|
neglected, and it will bo a special wonder
if somebody doesnt't "stand and deliver" |
on the necessity of a constitutional convention.
I
There has been some expression by
individual members as to who will likely i
. be the next Speaker of the House. lion. I
J. C. Sheppard, of Edgefield, the Speaker j
of the last House, is understood to be a
candidate for re-eloction; General John
D. Kennedy, chairman of the State Executive
Committee, is also prominently
spoken of for the position. At present it
Is hard to predict who will be the speaker, |
but the chances are now in favor of Gen-'
eral Kennedy. "When we "consult the
books of the sibj'ls" we find a disposition
on the part of some of the members not!
to award everything to Edgefield, though
we believe no-ic deny that Mr. Sheppard
made a fine speaker. Colonel J. "\V. R.
Pope, Mr. John T. Sloan and Colonel
James A. Hovt, aro prominent candidates
for Clerk of the Mouse. Colonel
T. Stobo Farrow, of Spartanburg, is aj
candidate for re-election to the position j
of Clerk of the Senate, and will probably j
~~Iiave lively competition. Governor
Hampton and General Gary, of Edge-;
field, will be the prominent candidates j
for the place made vacant in the United
States Senate by the expiration of Honest
John J. Patterson's term. While it'is
contended by some members of the General
Assembly that General Gary will,
develop more strength than his opponents
oxpect, yet, as far as we have heard, it is j
, + generally oonceded that the Governor J
will be our next Senator. Our citizens j
would regret to lose him as Governor of,
the State, yet by electing him Senator, it j
will be well for us to have so able and:
.Oy*V*
influential a friend in the United States
Senate at the inauguration of the next,
. President. The Governor, if elected, need ,
pot resign the Gubernatorial oflice before
December, 1879, at which time the next j
Congress meets. Even if fleeted, he can ,
serve out fully one-half of lii.s term as
Governor. We have heard it said that j
Lieutenant Governor Simpson is a candi-;
date for Chief Justice, with the chances
in his favor, but we are under the impres-}
slon tbat tbere is no vacancy in this office.
Colonel Robert Mack ay, of Greenville,
who was door-keeper of the IIouso for
the last two years, will not be there again. '
He has received an appointment on the J
Revenue service in ureenviue, as store-1koepor
and ganger at the handsome salary 1
of one hundred dollars a month. His (
place In Columbia mast be tilled by '
another.
Constitutional Convention.
- * The Anderson Journal of hist week has j
a well-tempered article on the necessity j t
of a Constitutional Convention. We are!,
as ready as the Jonmul to admit the ad-i(
vantages which on:1 people are to derive 11
from a better State Constitution, but we! j
believe our people are not yet ready lor j1
ho important a work. The change of a: j
State Constitution is not to be thought- L
lessly made, but should be done with do- \ j
liberation, after tho lirst Hush of so great. j
a victory as we have achieved has passed (
away. Thoso of our people who assume c
"' -v. to be political leaders necessarily have ,,
but a limited experience in the practical (
arts of government, and of course the ,
masses know less. For twenty years our t
people have been out of politics, and (
i there^ceais^to Ja? but fc\v acknowledged t
^,^46fttfers amongst us. Everything is to (
some extent in a chaotic state. The
younger politicians of the State, we be- |
* lieve, as a rule, in their own opinion, are \
,V wiser than seven men who can give a ,
' reason. In discussing political questions t
of the greatest moment they express f
themselves in the most decided manner, a
and at tho same time putting at a dis- c
count the "wisdom and experience of j
those who were trusted leaders before
K,. those new-Hedged self-constituted leaders
were born. The pretensions of "Young
America" -were never greater, and of (
course as many of them would be elected
to a Constitutional Convention as could
L . by hook or by crook pursuade the people (
r to confer this honor upon them, when t
each embryo statesmen would feel called i .
.? " upon to offer an amendment, whether it *
be an improvement or not. We have had j
elections enough for the present. The ,
State Legislature has given impracticable
and inexperienced young men ample f
; opportunity to air themselves, and we ]
-think tho boj's and office-seeking politi- .
cians might profitably rest a while for j
4 their country's good. Let us discuss the ,
proposed amendments to tho old Consti- ]
- .tmion, aud see wherein it is deficient, and h
*"-wherein it may be advantageously al- {
tered. We will be pleased if the Journal ,
will ventilate the grievances of which it j
would be rolieved as well as tho improve- t
* # ments which it proposes. It is easy to c
tear down but it is sometimes difficult for c
inexperienced builders to erect a better r
structure on the ruins.
However defective and onerous the j.
present Constitution may bo, wo are op- c
posed to a Constitutional Convention un- ^
til after the next Presidential election in t
'? JS80. We will then have time to make j
tip our minds as to tho desired changes,
and our political situation will have
Vv V assumed a normal con.litlon.

,T ' Thk Georeia Lezislature appointed a 1
^>. . committee to investigate the action of the j
" * . Governor in signing some railrcad bonds. :
* . That committee refused to sit with open
doors, and excluded the newspaper re- j
porters. The Atlanta Constitution, how- ,
over, with commendablo newspapor en- <
terprise, published their proceedings
promptly and correctly the next morning
after each session. We commend the ac- 1
? tion of the Constitution, while we fail to 1
. - 1 see good reason why tho committee
* - should want to veil in mystery their
action as public servants.
Ix our opinion the .newspapers are :
wasting a quantity of Drinter's ink dis
-' ' cussing Tilden's chances to be the Presidential
nomine? of the Democratic party
in 1S80. The country has had enough of
m Tildcn. We will in the next race, bet
onr money on a new nag. All this talk of
patting him on the track again is just
tjiafc much of waste breath.

Death <f Colonel F. E. Ilnrrison. j ]
This distinguished citizen of Andcrscli
County died of laryngetis with typhoid! 1
fever, at his residence at Andersonville j>h
last Saturday night at twelve o'eioek. j lVc
Colonel Harrison's military record fori of
courage and efficiency was all that the Lis
most ambitious could desire. He entered j an
the Confederate service as Captain of tin
Company I?. OriVs Itegimeftt, at Sandy tin
Springs, in July, ISfil, and served as Cap-1 i|,j
tain and the intermediate offices until he. ;l))
was ]?romotcd to the command of his: w]
regiment. In command of one of the UH
finest regiments in the service, lie took a | |JU
liigli stand as a military oflicer, ami was (0,
much beloved and respected i)yhissnb- s(((
ordinutes. At the battle of Gaines" Mill,
in 1802, near Richmond, he was soseri- etj
ously wounded that it was for several (,f
months before he could resume his posi- thi
tionin the lield, and tinally, owing to the pj
effects of which, as well as his failing jjhealth,
he was compelled to resign his < .,
commission, and return to his family an wj
invalid. an
As a citizen lie was idolized by his a ,
neighbors, ami looked lip to as their tj,
leader in all matters of public interest, oll
and 110 one of the community in which he 1
lived was ever more useful. For a whole.-bo
life a devoted Christian and an earnest
worker in the affairs of the church, and (|0
for many years an Elder in Roberts Pres- H<
b.vteria Church, where his personal scr- l'1(
vices and liberal contributions of mate- ]
rial aid will be sorely missed.
Colonel Harrison was married three of
times; first, to Miss Ross of Pendleton, sa
second, to Mis.*, Perrin of this place, the
daughter of Hon. T. C. Perrin; third, ,)a
in February last, to Miss Cothran, of this an
town. The latter survives him, and to
whom the sympathies of this community
go out warmly in her great loss.
We were not intimate with Colonel fe^
Harrison, as he lived at his old family Gf
ho ncstead of Andcrsonvillc, but after cr(
he married in Abbeville, wo had the co,
pleasure of meeting him occasionally. i,r,
lie was a gentleman of the old school? no
courteous, dignified and modest. Like [
most of the class to which he belonged, a 1
he was prudent, conscientious and high jj
toned?-a Christian gentleman, an honest coi
man, the noblest work of God. It is a I
matter of painful regret that persons of J
Colonel Harrison's type are one by one He
passing away, and their places are not pli
being filled. tal

The State Board of Equalization.-- for
A .Misleading Statement. on
In tho Columbia Jicf/i.stcr of Tuesday an<
November liitli, wo find a carefully pre- ov(
pared tabular statement of tho "lieal Es- 1
tate subject to Taxation as the Assess- f'1
ment for the Fiscal year 1878." It is wei
imagine, the report which General Ha-jma
good iu his letter to our County Auditor Prc
said would be published by the State I
Hoard of Equalization. It furnishes a of
great deal of information compressed in- ilcc
to a clearly arranged and convenient 1^1C
compendium. But the State Board have
been ver3r unwise in speaking of the previous
assessment as being that of 1877. j
It is quite true that "the assessment up- <rr0
on which the taxes of the present year vie
are being collected'' is the one which cor
held good in 1S77. But when was that tha
assessment made and by whom ? It was w}j
made, as the State Board for 1878 knows are
very well, by the Suite Board lor IN 4? ,sul
a tan-gathering, tax-stealing, tax-demu- am
ring Board of Radicals, a set of 'publi- fit;
cans and sinners of the deepest dye. It vac
is misleading to call the previous assess- or':
ment that of 1877. It is a sttpprcsaio ve'i thi;
For distinctness' sake wo shall hereafter, gni
in referring to the old and the new assess- Cat
incuts speak of them as the Radical As- as j
sessmcnl of 187-1 and the Democratic As- tun
sessincnt of 1878. The fact seems to be eac
that the State Board of Equalization ye*
have run against a radical machine, and "T
instead of destroying it, or improving it, yGS
or of making a new one of their own.
they have just repainted it, rech listened
it, regrcased it and vet it agoing. UnL
