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.

Mr. Vennor predicts that "August

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.

and Gen. Kennedy were respectively

not resist the call of his State.
The first ballot then proceeded un
der suppressed excitement. The cal!
of the roll resulted as follows : Tota
vote cast 314. necessary to a? choice
153. of which Thompson received
112, Kennedy .107, Bretton 95.
The announcement of the volo wai
hailed with loud cheering for th<
different candidates and the Conven
tion proceeded to a second ballot
ThiB ballot resulted as .follows : To

Gentleman ol the Convention, it

the honor which you have confer?
upon me is une which I neithei
licitad, expected nor desired,
would be less than the truth if 1
not express ray profound appr?ciai
of this honor, coming so nnercpeei
Iv as it does. My relations with
other gentlemen who were c iii :ei
nomination were euch that I co
not without dishonor ha've ent*
the canvass against thvra. Tl
were other reasons why 1 could
desire the nomination. 1 had loci
not without 'nope and not with
ambition, to the filling ol a posi
in my chosen profession in whit
trusted I might have served S<
Carolina. But the uall of this <
vention, which I recognize aa a
of the people cf the State, has I
made and I appear to answer
call and to discharge the duties
have imposed upon me to the be
my ability. It is not proper ii
at this time to offer any ( BUgges
as to the course wbbh this Con
tion should adopt, in the framin
a platform of principles, but I
confident that it will contain tb?
dinal principle.* of that old J
sonian 7)emooiacy upon which
maintenance of iree institntioi
this country depends, and I be
that you will recognize the ir
tance of economy in the allai

A Proposition to Entirely _
(ionize Oar Present Insufficient
Road Working System.
EDOEFJELD ADVERTISER- Being re
nuested by Air. llenajah 1 lambo, ?ne'(il the
moat practical men in tue county, to cai! j
the attention ni" thc Legislature to thc ;
present miserable, insufficient, and ante
diluvian manner of keeping the public .
mads in repair, yo? will oblige by giving
this a placo ?B the Ai>YEP.TLSEB, that il
may roach its destination. 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. TUA VELER.

A Dismal Failure.
Tbs attempt to connect Sadat
Butler with tbs massacre of prisoni
in the Hamburg riot is a dismal la
ure. Senator Bntler'sown (estimo
explained how the mistake Laif
have been made innocently, but il
utterly wrong to revive or perpetu
it. A prominent Pennsylvania Dc
ocrat, who had read Congressn
Miller's speech, writes to a friei
under date o? July 28, as folio*
'.When 1 was South a year ag<
stopped off at. Hamburg, which
inst across the Savannah River fi

person there, placed the blame of
riot on the negroes who wanto
shot an innocent white man \
stood at the entrance of the railr
bridge. Also that Senator Bull
presence there was in the canacit
