We have received the copy of "some ol letters,"' for publication. We presume the it terestlng part of these letters is the bad spel ing. For instance: ,,Sbool:" "malisher company; "sed"alters," etc. In the first place no mnu has a right to spe iu thlR way unless the phonetic style 1 adopted. A man is justified iu wrong spelling on! when he wishes to print provincialisms c home-made words, that are not in accor with our language. To misspell words, isau offense against th language, and we all offend, often enougl even when doing the best we can. We it k tontionally put no bad spelling iu our papei however often ii may occur, our rule 1st A do the best we can under the circumstances. f " "' The Election. The election for six delegates to the Stat Conveutlou came off yesterday. As far as w have heard the day was a quiet one, thougl t considerable interest was felt In all parts c the county, and generally a pretty fair yot ' was cast. At Abbeville the vote was, we believe, tb lurooct oi-or nocf nt thin oreniut. Mr. \V. C. AlcGowan the Conservative can didate, ran right along with tbe leading K< formers, receiving the votes of both faction! and the Conservatives, without regard t previous factional bias, voted for the reforn candidates. Only a few men remaine< away from the polls at this place. The campaign was one of the pleasanies that we have had for years. The candidate were cordial in their relations, and the pet pie bad none of the factional feeling. The result has proved the wisdom of no going into a trade, combine, or armed neu trality, by which the delegates were to be dl . Tided between the factions. The race wa every man's race, and as a result, we bellev that harmony has been restored to our pec pie. If this be true, and we believe it is true then this campaign has resulted in good.

McDill <S: Tolly at Abbeville. In many respects Mr. CUnkscales was , wonaerfui man, and his career has been a re markable one. Possessed of good judgment and indorunita energy he was one of the notably successfu farmers of this county, and although he uie with reverses when he went into ventures d whose result was lelt to others, yet he neve i. lost his spirit, and always was equal to tin , emergency.

Mr. Cliukscales belonged to oue of tbe old est, as well as one of the most numerous fam e illes in Abbeville county, and. like his name , sakes and kindred, he was noted for his bou ' esty and inteerity. Honest himself, he ac corded the same high standard to others, am r, this confidence in .human nature, sometime 0 cost him dearly. THE FACTORY. e Everything Moving 011 Xicely?

Duriug the trial of au important di Q(j vorce case before the superior court o Cook county, Illinois, recently sum * marized a portiou of what a wife has i ry right to claim in the following force y; ful language: )rt "When a woman gives up her sou , I "and body to a man in marriage, sh< i "is entitled by the spirit, the sanctity y:!"the divinity of the relationship, t< iet I "more than a mere husband-at-law, t< j | "more than a house for a shelter i "clothes to wear and food to eat; she ii ; "entitled to respect, to confidence, t< n" J "companionship, and to unfalterinj ly I "love; she is entitled to chastity, ai ia.i "spotless as is demanded of her; no | "chastity bom of ice, but chastity lik< ! "charity, that doeth no evil and think ds I "eth no evil." ly ' There is not a husband in this broat Qe land worthy of that name who wil .. in his heart di9tent from this declara ld tionof what is due to a wife. To( ik many men are, however, prone to per il- suade themselves that when thev pro *? vide all needed material good things for home and wife and keep their per n" sonal lives clean, they are meeting al ?. and really marital obligations. Thej ad are too apt to be forgetful oftheconli ry dence, unfailing respect, and mon . than all the companionship, to saj 1? nothing of the love, which are due ev 11 ery good wife.

De Water a* a IHMlnFectanl. It is not generally known, perhaps id because it may not be always credited Qe that pure, fresh cold water is one o the most valuable disinfectants, inas much as it is a powerful absorbent m Every sick room should have a larg< g- vessel of clear water, frequently renew at ed, placed near the bed, or even be , neath It. This not only absorbs muct ' of the tturtful vapor, but by itsevapora So tion it softens aud tempers theatmos at pbere, doing away with the drynes ag which is so trying and depressing t< . an invalid, or even to persons in healtl ne for;that matter.
