The barbecue at Wadlingtun's is to be a great big a air, for we karn that, b-. side the substami as well as other light and refreshing contributior.s from the town and district, the nei7nborbood of WadiingtonS where Tiue day's grand gathering is to take place. has contribu ted over one hundred carcasses. Just think of it! one hua'red fat carcasses leef, mutton and p->rk, from one neigh borhood We 'ave not heard from Sa lnda O} Toty n precinct, but feel satisfied that that there too will there be a plen tiful abt' :dance. Only a Way he has. At a e&nt Republican ioininating Con vention in Orangeburg, which the decent republicans present denounced as most riot oas and disorderly, and one that they ought to be ashamed of, Hoge was fiercely charged with altering a tote, and when presented for record, Ransier took it from Ioge and tore it up. The Orangeburg News says that the ex posed, self,confessed wretch, just convicud of a small and foul villainy, and cowering before :he indignant colored men, had the impuderce .o go into the pnlpit, where he said "be could not tamper with any votes," and there delivered his villainous speech against the Reform Party and the wounded hero, Gen. Rutier. One moment self-con, victed of crime, and cowering with the cold perspiration in his face, and the next attack ing a brave, true man! Don't be Idle. We hene that no nian will be idle in the contest tiow going on, the battle which is to drcide whether honesty shall prevail or whether thieves, robbers and uturderers shall lunger be ierm:itted to hold power. Every man can do somethirg. It.stant in I season and out shouid be the common im pulse now. There is no time for lagging, for 1ai:irg; every man has his own wo:k to do. Occe let our citizens feel this in its full force, and Newberry will carry the day in spite of the liea of the ri.g party, or ' eott's Wiuchestet';; only let us be true to ourselves and work with a rim. If an es ample is needed we point to Judge Carpen ter, the hardest working ma-n in rie refort party. Look at his vim. He's a whole Monday and Tuesday's Meetings. We need hardly remind the ciizes of Newberry of the .rneetings announced for next Monday anti nsday, the one at Salu. da Old Town, and the other at Wadiington's Cross Roads; atsboth of which a general and large turn out is expected. It is a duty to be there, and it will be a pleasure also, for there will be such light thrown on the is s'.s before 2s as canmnot fail to satisfy the most doubtful -or wavering. Go to theseb meeting.s then, one an d all,and let no interest g cause vou to remain at home. Judge Car- n penter and Gen. Blutler will address thte t meetings, and perhaps Gen. Kershaw. The clored citizen and the white citizen g Rre alike'interested in the Union Reform n tnovement-- in thec rescuing of the State o fromd the band of pira:es who are now fat- it reutig on the public treasury, and every o matn whto w-ould have a change will hear ofI something at these mteetinigs which will be p:-oStable as to thme great issue before us. There will be feasts of good things beside in the way of barbecues. Let vr man attend, white atnd black. Eopeful and Cheering. 1 The signs oif the times are indeedn ho9peful and cheering, and we believe ii that-a strong pull, and a pull altogethem', I ~ill bring the old shi pof State clear of ti the quick-snds which arc threateningt tom engutlf her. It cannot be accomplished, however, without work, a good, honest stripping for the contest, and a sInking P w oif nll little party feelings of jealousies, or I doubts, as to the 6itness of thims mran or that, for this or tbe other little position, I or direction in the work ; and it will matter but little in the general result, if em that result be a success, and a glorious success it will be, if we nnite heart and Ia hantd in giving it aid, if some things are 04 not what we would wish thenm. It ist ettough that we are perfeect,y, heartily, st honestly satisfled with our standard bear- W ers, Judge Carpenter and General But- am ler iTherefore let us unite with sacred P~ earnestness in furthering this good cause, and let all minor differenes and appoint- g ments alone, for we have oot the time to gI trouble ourselves about unimportant g points. We believe that the right men t are at the head and -front of the battle. Is not that enough-t As to Judge Car penter, no more~6itting man could have Ca been selected in this emergency.! pbys. ically and mentally-he is bead and shoul- by ders above any man that the ring can foi troduce. and th.ey are shaking in their boots that their opponent is so formida- ad ble, and that their position is so weak and cr m.o untenable. Judge Carpenter is fear-.P 1ess in his exposure of the fraud2s and i corruption of the piratical crew, and his dissections shake their guilty souls ; hia ljoldness too, is refreshing, and his scath- of ing, bilting, shar p utterances,' effectually silence thme pital yeipings of the thievesG who have long si-na parted company with truth and honesty.. We may safely say that we will win the fight, if therep is anything in truth, fairness, honesty atnd pluck, and we will have no going E haek o:: that, but stagtforward press a w ithI every energy to the end, the bitter end fQr the radical ring. Let every hon rst man, black and white, say then, suc- b ien to the l'iion Ref->rm Party, thef Sh^ort Trip to Columbia-What we felt, saw and heard. On a recent flying visit to Columbia, our conveyance was the big new coach of the G. & C. R., R., of shich so much has been said, and we did not like it at all. It was the tria trip of this huge brown sided and green-backed rnonster, hnd two accidents had already occurred, one detention by fire on the track, and. one run off, neither owing, however to tlfe new caravan, yet as we stepped ;.n its platform, after, viewing its 6reat sides and length, and already a',quainted with the mishaps of the da. , we felt scared. As the train moved, it was bard to real ize io spite of the -elaborate decorations, anP" handsome and comfortable internal arrangements, that we were not on the inside of some huge monster, a whale perhaps which would roll over directly, or plunge down, or some fearful bird which might get frightened, and opcning its great wings, soar away with us. For the first ten or fifteen miles it was im possible to feel easy, we never expected to get back to Newberry, and but for the Bobbing which bolstered uson either side-Bob Land and Bob Leavell-who were unremitting with advice and cheer, the Herald's unfortunate senior would have gone back on nature. Courage being finally infused, and finding that the cus sed looking thing did not. fly, or roll over, or anything of that sort, and that it really moved along with more satisfac tion than the old concerns,we took heart, and enjoying it, arrived in Columbia, spite of the long detention, by daylight. Columbia is improving on every hand, new dwellings and new stores every where going up, but business, as it is here at home, is rather flat. Amvg the .gns of improveent a-nd advance is the large addition being made to the store of the Messrs. Kinard's, which, when com pleted, will make it second to none this side of Charleston. Success attend them and all others vho help to add to the business and prosperity of the country. We were pleased to notice also that the G. & C. R. R. has its Auditor's office now over the new banking house, over which Mr. Hardy Solomon so gracefully presides. The change will be found a great con enience to parties having business with the officers of the road. The South Car lina Bank and Trust Company's office is, as already mentioned, immediately underneath, and is handsomely fitted up, :ool and airy, and is doing a good busi 'ess, although so lately established. We found the offic:rs all that we :ould expect, pleasant and attentive. i'e would like to givo a few particulars f men and things; of Bro.

The political campaign has opened, the Union Reform candidates are already in the field, and the State may expect to be hcld, between this and the end of Octo ber, as c. citng and as important a can vats as ever engaged the hopes and sym pathies of a people. On the one side will be ranted the enemies of good govern ment, the retainers of the Ring, the venal pol.iticians who have added millionsto the 'tate debt and have filled their own pock ets while emptying the pockets of their so-called fellow-citizens. On the other side iill stand the intelligence, the worth, the honesty and the decency of South Carolina-all leagued together for the one great purpose of obtaining a State Government which shall make life and property secure, and may be banded down, with becoming pride and confi dence, to the second and third genera tion. There is no splitting of hairs. The whole canvass is a square and fair contest between honesty and dishonesty, economy and extravagance, public purity and public corruption. With an organization as thorough as that of the Radical Ring, the Union Re form party an carry the day ; but a po litical rabble cannot hold its own against trained and disciplined forces, the more especially when the larger battalions and the better discipline are both on the same side. The Ring count upon the igno rance of their adherents; the Reformers count upon intelligence and upon truth. And the one sure way of exposing the rascalities and deceptions of the Ring, and of proving the broad generosity and enlarged liberality of the Reform move ment, is by giving the Union Reformers a rallying point in every precinct and county in the State. The formation of Union Reform Clubs will set discipline against discipline and organization against organization. It will do more than this. In each precinct the Reform Club will be the centre around which may crystalize all the elements which gives force and life to the Reform party. And the Clubs will gain rapidly in strength. When the standard-bear ers of the party pass through the State they will add hundreds of names to the roll of the Reform Clubs; every effort, every speech, every campaign document will widen their sphere and increase their usefulness. And without Reform Clubs it will be very diflicult to carry on the campaign. When announcements are to be made for mass meetings, the Re form Clubs should take the matter in hand. When speakers are appointed to canvass a district, the Reform Clubs in the district should spread the news abroad and make preparations for their reception. When documents are to be distributed, the Reform Clubs must do the work. The clubs, also, will have the duty of supervising the voting, so that no illegal voters may sneakingly cast their ballots for the Ring. In a word, the Reform Clubs will bring the State Executive Committee face to face with the people. The chain will be un broken--begisring with the small central body in Columbia, and spreading out with increasing strength and thickness into every corner of the State. By means of these clubs the whole people will be joined together ; they will feel the touch of the elbow all along the line. We hope, then, that steps will at once e taken for forruing Reform Clubs. he people should form Precinct Clubs, nd from these may be organized a Coun y Club. Union has already moved in his matter, and the rest of the State hould follow her excellent example. ith a good cause, with good candidates, ith a Reform Club in every township, rith a long pull, a strong pull and a ull together-we can and shall be sue essful.-Lancaster Ledger.

It makes us feel that there too little of justice extended to the allant people of that proud old com onwealt h-her Hamnptons, Butlers, and hers, who bore themselves so nobly in fnce of the "Lost Cause," and who v suffered so much from the results fthat trying conflict-when we see cen ure passed upon them for the efThrt ey are now making to redeem the tate from the misrule which has bank. pted Charleston, nnd threatens to nkrupt the whole State. For our own art, we wish them success. Unlike leorgia, the negro population <,f South aroina is largely in the majority over e whites, and the effort being now nade in that State by the conservative arty, through a combination with the oderate blacks, to rescue the State om the misrule that has brought it to e very verge of bankruptcy is a com nendable one, dictated by the lof:iest atriotism, and participated in by as rue and honorable men as ever drew ord or shed blood in the Confederate ause.

Sondley, one of our most es teemed citizens, at his residence in this village, from consumption, on Friday last, in the fo*ty-fourth year of his age. He was a native of Newberry, but had resided here for the past fifteen years, and during most of which time he oc cupied the position of Depot Agent of the Greenville and Columbia Railroad. Of delicate health and frail o'ganization it is a matter of wonder that the vigorous will and earnest purpose kept back so long the ebbing tide-that niind tri umphed so long over matter, and life re sisted so.long the approaches of death. At last death came as the friend to give relief to the suffering and rest to the weary. For many years a member of the Presbyterian Church, an honorable, upright man, a public spirited citizen, a faithful and efficient officer-of affable deportment, and genial, companiorable temper-he possessed in an eminent de gree that blended harmony of character -those attributcs of mind and virtues of heart-which secure respect and inspire love. In his death there is to each one of us something of personal bereavement; and we mourn not the useful citizen but, the kindly beaming face, uhich spoke out the loveable qualities of the man. As a man he was universally popular, and the people of our District generally will cherish for him a green place in their memories, whilat they drop a tear over his tomb. The funeral services, were conducted in the Presbyterian church of the village on Saturday lart, and impressive dis caurses were delivered by Rev,_ J. 0. Lindsay, and Rev. W. P. Dulose; after which the remains were interred with Masonic honors, in the cemetery of the Upper Long Cane Churcb.-Abbeville Press. DrEAtDFCL SccsEs ms ALABAA.-PS sengers by last night's train confirm the reports of the unfortunate difficulty be tween the whites and negroes a, Cross Plains, Ala. It seems that on Sunday evering last, a white boy and a negro had a quarrel and fought. Several other negroes and whites coming up, a general row ensued. The negroes were aispersed. but having armed themselves, returned, and meeting the white boy, with whom the first diffi culty occurred, in company with a nun ber of ladies, fired into the party. This so exasperated the whites, that a large number armed themselves, pur sued, captured and hung a Mr. Luke, carpet-bag school-teacher, who is said to have urged the negroes on and four o! the ring-leaders among the negroes, and also shot and killed another negro. Luke was taken to a house before his execution and allowed to write a letter to his family. In his letter he denied having ineited the negroes to revenge, but claimed to have persuaded them to desist. The affair is a most unfortunate one, and happens, we fear, at a most unfor tunate time fur the people of the South. It is however, but what we may. expect as the practical workings of the firtecnth amendment, and other laws- having a tendency to bring the whites and blacks in antagonism, and keep alive the flames of the "irrepressible conflict."-Rome Southerner, 13th.

It's A WAY 'rHEY IIAVE.--In Xar-d even the othecr night the DeLarge and owen factions held independent meet gs, and each meeting elected wrard elegates. The DeLarge faction are now out in a card, statitng that E. P. Wall, the resident of the opposition meeting, and Bowenitc, of course, had brought vo ters over from the adjacent parishes and sands, who came to vote for Biowen del gates, on condition that they should be fur,ished with transportation.

P.crs Ui.-More than one colored man wa< heard to say on the fourth in stant, that in ten years from this time there would not be a white person in this State, that the State belonged to he colored people, and that they inten ded to drive the whites out.

W THE WEATIIER AND CRors.-Our imme- Ca diate vicinity is still suffering for rain, only a De slight shower having fallen in several weeks, a and that scarcely sufficient to lay the dust. *j Crops and gardens are all but dried up in the belt thns deprived of rain, but we are re joiced to sNy that good seasons have blessed the district generally.

ACCIDENTAL DEAT.---We record with ter pain the death of Mr. Bennett Stuckman, which sad event occurred at the house of his pa father, on Saturday last, near Zion, in the to neighborhood of Stony Battery. The par- ty ticulars are as follows: Young Stuckman, fre the deceased, and his brother, were preparing for a squirrel hunt in the afternoon, and just set before starting, the gun of the latter, which let ad been placed in the piazza, by some ani eans fell, the cock striking the floor, and tyl aasing the gun to explode, the contents etered the breast o f t h e unfortunate ria oung man, killing him almost immediately.

We have Iat 1 lways had the strongest desire to get to that Sch favored land of flowers, fruits and quick evel rowing vegetables, and to enjoy the fresh 1' Ps and invigorating breezes which continually a ome from the gulf, laden with spicy odors. 9 e have longed for it because we loved it, nes' n because we love the beautiful and good B always. We have never gone back on this et ove, and never will. Jus t now we desire it ore ardently, however, than ever, and for Thi hy ? because the ills at piesent endured are L lmost insufferable, a lodge in some vast Pas wilderness, shut out from human sight and of ompanionship, provided th toshr tor. was pure, would he more preferable than the eve, charged and intolerably offensive air we now and have to inhale. We would just as soon be 'l hut up in a radical ring caucus than sit pre n our office with the wind blowing from theth South. The nuisance complained of is posi- Ihan lvely shocking, and we make an earnest ap -__ peal for its abatement, otherwise we will be frced from the pressure of this smell to give vacation and stop the Herald till frost. Do SC please, somebody, take it up, remove it, bury it, hide it away, sell it, do anything with -Cors it, rather than that we should be forced to ct desperately. WICKED ME'CovENTIoN.-This seems s1 to be the age of Conventions. Every ele.80 ment of society-relIgions, social, educa' C:1 tonal, scientific, mechanical, political or ; what not has been represented in Conven- do, ton. Never was the like known before.- B Surely it must be the age of reform-a gene ral reform. The need of another convention ad is yet apparent, a conventioni of wicked menNo and boys.

July 6, 27-im. asr TIHE "tPAIN KILLER"- Y lhe oreign and domestic demand fo,r Perry Da- this i& Son's great medicine-the Pain Killer- thin was never betfore so large as is has been of late, and we think the time has arrived when the de- aiing tlaration may be made. without the possibility of refutation, that the city of Providence. in thme State of Rhode Island. 'of the United States of america, has furnished the entire habitable wil! tlobe with a medicine, which, in point of uni-b rersaliy of demand, extent of usefulness, com- .abu plete efciency for all the purposes for which it a designed and wide spread,enduring popularity, is never been equalled by any medicine in Eu ro or Ameries. whi euniversitalty of the demand for the Pain' K iler, is a novel, interesting, and surprising fe 'ord< ue in the history of this medicine. Its "fame bas gone out." into every quarter ofthe habitable iobe. The P'aln K filer is now regularly sold in 'I [arge and steadily increasing quantities. not on- J ly to general agents in every State and Territory _ f t the Union, and every Province of British - America, but to Buenos Ayres, Brazil, Uragumay, Peru, Chili and other South Ameri can States to the Sandwich Islands, to Cuba and other West India Islads; to England and Conitinental Eu- To ope to Moabque aa cr Zanzibar and atlier African lands; to Australia and Calcutta, Rangoon and other places in India. It has also, been sent to China, and we doubt if there is any oreig port or Inland city in Africa or Asia, 3 which is frequented by American and European ope missionaries, travellers or traders, into which the m ain Killer has not been intr'oduced and been ',oght after. The extent of its usefulness is another great t.es ~ature of this remarkable medicine. It is not nly the best thing ever known, as everybody will confess, for bruises, cuts, burns. &e., but for ysenery or cholera, or any sodt of bowel com, J plaint it Is a remedy unsurpassed for efficiency ........ d rapidity of action.
