"Time brings its revenge," and "politics" not only makes strange ^.bed fellows," but does a great ff many other strange things. One of the strange things, as well as one of boldest piece Of. assumption, ' and presumption, to be found among all the remarkable events of the last -campaign, is to be found in the appropriation of the name of "Straightout Democrats" by the Haskel 1-Ha mp ton faction, or more properly speaking, the "Independents" in this State. It is but right and proper to call it ,_.ihe "HaskeU-Hampton faction," or Independents, for that is the ijgpper name now unless we go " back and give them the name that neral Gary used to- call them % and that was "the fusionists." r General Gary waa the real leader % of the Straightout Democracy in ?876, for" it watfhe who forced that plan of campaign-first in Edge field, and then in the State, and but for his individual, heroic efforts, the State would not have been redeemed in 1876. He defined "Straightout Democracy" as "a white man's party fighting for white supremacy" in South Carolina. It was in pursuance of this * policy that he called the 12th of August, 1876, meecing, at Edgefield which decided the course of the campaign ; for it not only decided the action of the State Convention in nominating a straight ticket, but was followed up so vigorously by . Geo. D. Tillman and others, at Blackville and Newberry, that Chamberlain was driven out of the field before Hampton got into it at Anderson and the fact is that Hampton never had any real fighting to do, but was carried around on the shoulders of. our > people, while General Gary remained at Edgefield with seven ?- companies of United States troops :' to contend with, but carried the election after spending $3,000 of his own money by such am j or i ty as secured the election in the State. After the election Hampton . claimed that he had united the whole people-white and black |by his f'concilatory policy, and that his election was due to 18,000 "negroes, whom he said has voted for him, thought Straightouts like . Boh Toomba and Mart Gary thought that" bribery and intimi dation, pure and simple," did the work. ' After, the election Hampton became the outspoken, advocate of the "fusion policy," ?. e., of taking all the negroes we could get into the Democratic party, and allowing them- to vote in our primaries, conventions etc.. This is history, as reference to the speeches of Hampton, Hagood, Connor and Dawson, at Blackville, in May, 1878, will show. General Butler answered these speeches from "Stonelands," in Edgefield county, soon after, but erelong he had reconciled his differences and joined, the fusionists in their campaign through the State, while his old friend, .General Gary was . soon given the cold, shoulder by the executive committee, because he asserted the principles of white supremacy too strongly at Green ville, and was forever left out in the cold. They even violated all fairness and party precedent and principle in 1880 to secure the election of Hagood and to prevent Gary from having a chance before the people. General Gary died in 1881 and was prevented from going before the people in 1882, as he had intended to demand a Straight out primary election and time mov ed along with Ned McCrady's eight box law, until the old straightout followers of General Gary found another leader in B. R. Tillman, who claims to be as he is, "the political child of Gary." The Tillman party had boldly announced the principle of "White gnpremacy," or gtraghtont De mocracy" and as soon as it became evident that he was about to carry the State, the Haskells foolishly brought Hampton down to "divide time" with Tillman, and to dictate tbeu politics of the State, though he was no candidate. Haskell the socalled Straightout was charging around hurrahing for Hampton, and insulting the invited guests of Columbia and Richland, by groans and hisses for "rotten Democracy," B R. Tillman was nominated however, by the regular Democracy, when, presto, change, the immacu late^Haskell flies the Democratic T?lMi" I "ii ll track, bolts the whole party, ap peals to the negro, votes for Ensor and at last is thrown, very heavily in the November races, although he is a Straighout Democrat Hampton could not, pr would not condemn his jtpostacy, so down hf goes, and the real "white supre macy .w Straighout Democracy,ian at last in possession of the part} and State. Shade of "Mart Gary," when wert thou, when Alack Haskel' waa calling himself a Straightou1 Democrat while running on ?ar Independent ticket, appealing t< the negro, and voting for Ensor Surely thy spirit must have beer abroad in the State, in 1890, whei thy friends were contending for th? principles to which you had giver birth and life, but for which other! reaped the reward. A derisive smile must have passed over thj face, when these men called them selves "Straightout Democrats;' and when Hampton fell, tell us Oh! friend of former days! wh( loved the State so well? who did e< much, and received so little? Wai it fate, the triumph of principles a just retribution, or simply th< voice of the people? One cac easily recall that proud and gal lani form as it waa seen, too often alone, when everybody seemed U worship only at the Hampton Haskell shrine, and when, lik< Eome undaunted gladiator, tha clarion voice was heard in th< Senate, battling against the Radi cal fraudulent debt, which wai saddled on the State, and contend ing for principles which have sinc< triumphed. ' They refused the recognition am reward which you had fairly won and all too soon, you were laid ii the grave-though time ha brought its revenge." Looking to the future and re Imembering that "history repeati itself," and that the example o Independentism has already beei set, we may rest assured, fron what we already see, that this fae tionwill drift back to the oh Hampton idea, and the negro wil be appealed to to decide the con flict between the regular Straught out Democrats and these Inde pendent "Fus ionists." The"Thir teen" have already appealed an< surrendered to the Independent and they are preparing to ignor the regular Executive Committe and to run a separate schedule o their own. Any excuse will b goodenough for men who hay already made up their minds tha neither principles nor party shaj govern their actions, unless th nomination is made to suit then It has more than once been hinte that "the gentlemen would hav I to use the negro to control th ' State"-a vile heresy to the whit ?race and the principles of whit j supremacy. Our people may as well look ouj for the issue will soon be upon ut and if as it seems probable, th attempt ie made we must make thj campaign for straightout Demoq racy and white supremacy B< memorable that it shall be th lastef fort to negroLze the State.

EM., Savannah, writes to ask ' wlhere the land of Nod was, whither Cain went after he slew his broth jr Abel. Where did Cain find a wife ? ' From some old records dis covered in the city of Nineveh, and which would answer to the land of Nod, it is seen that the word Nod means exile, or that Cain went into exile. Tradition sayeth I he went into the land of Eraz and . also the land of Acra. Tradition also saye th that Cain 1 was forgiven by God, and the mark ? set upon his forehead was the sign of forgiveness. The curse was: 1 'A fugitive and a vagabond shalt 1 thou be in the earth." Cain said 3 his punishment was greater than 1 he could bear: "Behold, Thou 1 hast driven me ont this day from ' the peace of the earth" that ia from 7 among my kindred-"an d from Thy face shall I be hid; and i shall be a fugitive and a vagabond in the ?. earth ; and it shall come to pase ) that every -one that findeth me } shall slay me/ God saw the deep } repentance of his heart and. for? ? gave him ; bnt he did not allow ' him to live with his kindred, foi 1 he went into the land of Nod, oi b exile.

JfervjpDIsplayad br a Tnaatrtoal Manager la ? Foolhardy v cat. . ?Sam T. Jack la a' splendid bluffer," said a gentleman from Kansas .yester day. "I remember him best when he was traveling through Kansas with a burlesque road company. He once struck Dodge, City with a big opera bouffe troop. It was years ago, when. Dodge City was. at the very verge of civiliza tion-just hanging on to the edge, as it were. There was no regular show house, and no decent hotel. There plenty of money, though, and that brought Jack and his company. The town was full of cowboys and roughs, and they all determined to see the show and incidentally have some sport with the management. "Mr. Jack learned this and realized the necessity of impressing the natives with a due sense of his awfulness as a fighter before the show began. At that time one Peter McCarthy was the deputy sheriff of Dodge City, and was a reason ably efficient officer. For this reason it was that he felt in duty bound to warn Mr. Jack of the awful possibilities of exhibiting himself on the streets, of Dodge City in a white ping hat and a fancy vest. The well meaning deputy sheriff affected to despise tenderfoot bnt because of this feeling of official responsibility - which sentiment was doubtless more thoroughly aroused at the thought of a possible free seat at the show-he started in to give Jack timely warning, and began his remarks as follows: M '.Bs yon the show bossf asked Pete, .Vi am, sh*,' was the reply. " Ton all allow to act ont in the town hall tonight I reckon? " Tes, sir.' * 'You goin y'sel? ** Yes, sir/ " 'Be you goin to rustle around town much in thet thar white stovepipe hat? 'Well,' said Mr. Jack, who had be* eome tired of being catechised, *if yon will submit your questions in writing provided y on can write-I will lay off a ? day and frame my answers for you, but let me ask a question. Why do yon want to know whether I will rustie or no, and why this pointed reference to my Greeley hat?* ** 'Wall,' responded the sheriff, a tittie hot himself, "canse I kern in hyer to give yer a pointer; ef you do war thet hat down town the boys are a-waitin fer yer and they'll shoot it chock full o' holes. They dont low no sech tiles In Dodge.' Pete then looked at Sam as much as to say that he thought the hat would not be worn. But the sapient I Sammy smiled serenely and said, 'That's the trick, is it? Well, that's funny. Now, if the boys in highfalutin hilarity should miss the hat and hit the wearer what would be the result/ 'Yon joutstan your chancee, but 1 reckin y* wont do that-it's kinder ticklish; not but thet the boys ar? good shots, bat the likker is a kinder lively an-an-wall, they m ought raise a little ha'r, you know-see?' *t 'Just 60,' said Sam as he continued writing. When he had finished he turned to Pete, and holding in his hand a sheet of paper asked that genius if. he could read it Pete could and did.' It read as follows: : I WILL STIOOT rna MAN WHO - ; : Dxnta TO SHOOT THIS HA*. : ** ?Now,' said Mr. Jack, T will be going to Wells, Fargo's & Co.'s office, near the depot, in jest ten minutes-and I go loaded always. I will wear this paper thus'-and he pasted the sheet to tbs front of his hat 'AH the boys can see it Tell those who will dare to shoot-if any-that they had better shoot for blood.1 Pete's jaw dropped at the ulti matum of the tenderfoot and the latte fe display of nerve. The upshot was that the manager wore his tall white Greeley bat-and wore his cartridge belt and guns. The boys were congregated out side the House of Blazes, to care for their hides-and a feeling of respect for the nerve of the wearer prompted them to applaud at his action instead of shooting at his hat, and that night he hung out the sign, "Standing Boom Only," at 7 o'clock-Chicago Post Ships Wrecked In Fair Weather. Very few persons know the number ol ships that have never been heard from after leaving port: In Great Britain alone, in 1878-4, there were 80 vessels . missing; in 1874-5, 187, and in 1875-6, 1 101; between 1884 and 1889, of 10,668 re 8 ported lost the fates of 848 are unknown, e and even this list is lees than more oc curs to information would show...

PIPER'S - ESCAPE FROM A PJvCK OF HUNGRY CREATURES. Attacked by Half Starred BuiU Oa a Lonely F oro?t Boad, aa Old Mw F in di a Car? with Two Op-toga, On? ef .WltUeh tba Woive* Didn't Know Ot Benjamin Piper, an old pioneer! j of Jefferson county, Wis., ned a thrilling adventure with a pack of wolves. ? It was one evening while he was matting his way from Watertown, on foot Tl 1 ere was snow on the ground, and it had List ed long enough to make wolves unusu ally fierce and savage with hun; ter. Piper had been warned -by friendu in Watertown not to attempt tiie trip; but he told them that he had not the slight est fear. Numerous large timber wolves had been seen near these same forests through which Piper had to pass, mit as they had hot yet ventured to attack; any one, little attention had been paM to their presence. Bnt - now, in their des perate hunger and while lurking ' about for something to prey upon, some of them had discovered Piper, and.1 at once set np a howl for ihr companions. But Piper was utterly indifferent to their howls and walked boldly along. Suddenly, jost as he turned a sharp comer of the Roadway among thedense timber, a large gray wolf walked across the road slowly and deliberately about two rbds ahead 'of him and then turned and. leisurely recrossed to the sids from where it came, swinging its tail aloft, and with the hair raised on its neck. It also howled in a dismal manner, at if to harry ap itt companions, whose answers now began to come from many direc tions. Piper marched utraight aheacl ae if nothing had happened, save thal; he picked np a good sized dub, intending to throw it at the animal should it ap proach him again. A moment later the same wolf trotted ont from the brush ! mnch nearer to him than before, and Piper hurled the olnb at the animal with amendons force. But quickly stepping aside and dodging the weapon, the wolf planted itself in tile middle of the road and was not disposed to move any farther, but showed its teeth savagely and uttered more howls for its companions. ? T>ESTERATE SITUATION. Piper now began to get frightened. He gathered sticks and stones and hurled j them at the wolf until it was glad to get ( ont of his way and lot him proceed. But he knew from the sounds still coming behind him that a pack of the animals was on his trail and he would need to make haste or they would soon overtake him. He was a strong man and very fleet bf foot.' bat ho had had no expecta tion of winning against a lot of wolves in a foot race-, should they determine to pursue him. So be concluded that be must at once bring all his wits into play ! and, if possible, deceive them. The for est trees around him were rather small to ' climb and be safe among their branches, and he did not relish the ides of being kept np in a tree all night in spch cold weather. The desperateness of the situation called to his mind a singular cave con? faining two narrow openings, and he concluded that it might afford him pro tection and give him a chance to defend himself. So away he hurried for the cave. It was now long af ter dusk, bat the moon shone brightly, yet owing to the shadows of the trees Piper experi enced considerable difficulty in finding the entrance to the cavern. Before crawling into the narrow passageway he secured a large, heavy club to use should the wolves attempt to follow him into his retreat. He. was scarcely habit dozen feet inside ere he heard their hor rible howls near the entrance, and saw their eyes like balls af fire glaring on him from the outside. At first they seemed disinclined to follow after him, apparently fearing a trap, bat finally the boldest one started inside, and then all squeezed themselves into the opening until it was jammed tight. A BAD HALF HOCE. As the forward wolf came within hfe reach, Piper pounded it with his clut until it was utterly disabled, but thc 1 great pressure of those from behind con stantly brought the heads of others neara and nearer. Piper never stopped fight ing, bat whacked and beat and gouged and disabled wolf after wolf as thej came within reach. But at length thc entrance became so perfectly filled wit! wolves that they could neither get for ward nor 'backward, while their savage howls resounded in the narrow place with such deafening effect that it made Piper tremble, and his sole thought wai to get out and away from them. Groping around wita his hands hi found soma good sized, loose stones, with which he hastily filled into the opening jost in front of the wolves as tightly ai he could pack it, and then, with club ic hand, he crawled along and sought exil at the opposite entrance to the cavern The dismal darkness prevented him from seeing anything, and it was some tim? before he found the way out The wolves did not know, or else had forgot ten, tins entrance, and Piper left them still howling with fury crowded into th? narrow month of the cave at least sixty yards away from where he had emerged, He now made his way to the road again, and two hours later had reached home. A few days later he visited the cavern, bat found nothing save a few bones, th? dead and wounded wolves having been, as he supposed, eaten up by their raven ous companions.--Cor.
