The company feels its ability to build
the road to the North Carolina line
and retain its management until that
is accomplished, then they will he
ready to consolidate, but they do not
propose to give up their franchise at

THE GENERAL PLAN FOR THE
CANVASS.
Campaign Meeting in Edgefield OD
the Twenty-Third of October.
The State Democratic Executive
Coramittee met ia Columbia on Tues
day, the 15th instant, and arrauged
the general pian tor the canvass of
the State, and appointed committees
to arrauge and carry out the details.
The first c impaign meeting is to be
held in Anderson on Thursday, Au
gust'31st, followed by a meeting at
every Court House in the State, clos
ing with Charleston on the 2Sth of
October. The campaign meeting for
Edgefield County is to be held in this
town on Monday, October the 23rd.
Special mars meetings were also
appointed in ? lie several Congression
al Districts, that for the Second Dis
trict being at Blackville on Thurs
day, the i2uc? of November.
The entire canvass will be vigor
ously prosecuted; and when it is over
with, the Ureenbackers, who ara now
raising their heads with ccn-iderable
assurance, will conclude that it was
the biggest and vainest job of their
lives when they undertook to over
throw the Democratic party in South
Carolina.
An Urgent Word to Our County
Executive Committee.
On Friday, the 1st S'-ptember, the
day after the Priunify Election, let
our County Executive Committee get
to work at, least by IO o'clock A. M.
Iudeed we should very strongly ad
vice that the Committee begin the
work ot summing np at this hour,
even though but one third ol if1?
members be present. We consider
this matter extremely important, for
we well remember the tedious and
trying scsnes of the summing np in
?880. A vast crowd was present
from all parts of the county, await
ing the public announcement of the
result. But still, notwithstanding
their natural and laudable anxiety,
their intense exciteinen!., their tedi
ous vigil, and their long fast, they
were forced to depart homewards
without hearing said announcement
-unsatisfied and cheerless. The
Committee did not begin their work
until 12 o'clock M.: and, if we re
member aright, the announcement
was not made until niue o'clock at
night. And then the eri-ir's voice
fell upon the silent air.

The Greenbackers proceed fro:
the vicious principle, "all things I
all men in all places." For Mair
they are prohibitionists, in Nort
Carolina anti-prohibitionists, in Sont
Carolina they are opposed to high(
education, in New York they are i
favor of both common and higher et
ucatton, in Massachusetts they ai
in favor of qualified suffrage, inSout
Carolina they are in favor of au ni
licensed, unbridled and unqualvfie

Ben Hill a Methodist,
Senator Hill had never been an in
religious man. He had long been a
member ol thc Methodist Church,
and his bob! masterful nJnd had nev
er tried to soar above the simple ten
ets of the Christian faith. Ma*iy
persons will remember Mr. Hill's
gathering about, him the visitors in
the juniors of one ol'our North Geor
gia resorts, one Slimmers Sabbath
Day, and delivering an impromptu
lecture on "Faith" which moved half
the assemblage to tears. His great
intellect, and biselo.juence here went
hand in hand. He bad always been
the gentlest, and fondei-t of husbands,
and it was Gen. Evana' lemark upon
the close of a long acquaintance with
him, that he had never seen a more
devoted domestic character or a firm
er holder of the faith.
