I tried to set him to talk about the situation in South Carolina, hut he said that he would rattier hear the views of others who were here nil the liine'than to advaneo any Ideas that lie might have upon the subject. While he was here he visited theMtate-IloiiRe several: times, went to the postoftlee after his mail, j rode through the streets and out into the country In a buggy very much as any other Citizen woitld do, and wherever he went was] cordially greeted by the people, who think1 just as much of him now as they did in lS7'i. | For some time there have been frequent F M 1'ope to.I s lilaK", 1, l, ifoa/.cnrin, i t I I,ip<eoni1>", trust-vs. 'J'i jicrcs, 1 township. f-7). j ! bounded hy lands of Mrs Jones, .1 W Foosliee,! j Holmes and Durham, W <' '(irillin, ltobertsuii | ; Tii.vlor A Co., in Ninety-Six. j 15 1* Kinard lo Paninl Koinan, 2 acres, 1st [township, Sin, bounded bv lands of Kmina : Starncs, Julia V Kinard. and Sarah Kdwards. | Kliz I, Hugliey to Jacob Miller 1 Mere, hou^e [and lot,11th township HVi'i. bounded by Mrs i Wasinansk I.

While heartily in spinpathy with < the state Democracy and willing, "as all good citi/.ens should he," t-? gi ve all possible aid to!
