Governor Elect Thompson. Mr." Thompson is a remarkably handsome man. He is of medium height, well built, very erect, and has a decidedly military appearance. He is a fine tactician, and brought up his company, the Governor's Guard, to the highest pitch of discipline. When the Palmetto Regiment was formed, about two years ago, Mr. Thompson was made Colonel, and at the Yorktown Celebration Colonel Thompson's command was high iv praised for its martial bearing and excellent discipline. Congress adjourned Tuesday, the 8th inst., at 3 p. ?. Mr. Vennor predicts that "August will ba another month of storms and unusual rainfall, with one or two re markably low corves of temperatur e I expect snowfalls will be recorded in extreme western and north-we? tern sections, and cold rains at more southerly stations shortly after the middle cf the month." If Mr. Ven nor had glass sides and a stem of mercury running up his spine he'd be a combination barometer. Paris Simkins on the dominations. Coming out of the Postoflice the! Reporter met Paris Simkins, of Edge Held, an intelligent colored man, for raerly chairman cf- fr;e ways and means committee of the House and now a clerk in the Postoflice. Sim kins in reply to a miestion, said that the nomination, in iris opinion, was i capital one. He said "the Slate ticket, as put out by the Democrat:. Convention, is a good one, and I can't see how the colored pecple can re ruse to support it. Col. Thompson as proved his friendship for our race the steady and unremitting inter ho has taken in their education, .?hejhonld have, if he ha? not, fidence and support.'* "per. Fur the Advertiser.

Mr. Rambo thinks a capitation tax of one dollar per annum would be preferred by any and &U parties, repairs of road.s being let to | contractors, they giving good andsuilicient I bond.? to ensure good and sufficient roads. Agreeing with Mr. 1 tambo in all of the above, allow me to add that very possibly three men and six mules, with ditching plow, ditch .scraper and road scraper, would do as much in one day on an ordi nary road as fifty men under tho present, hoe system of scraping the highways. A contractor could buy and nae those im-' plements; an individual roadworker can not. Numbera of horses, mules and wheelcarriages are bought annually to wen- nut upon oar miserable roads, paying another unseen bril heavy lax to the mule men and wagon makers, by the farmers of the county. If some man of figures could count the cost in this regard it would astonish the people greatly.
