The State Canvass..
Gen. Hampton and his associates
have nearly completed their gran'd
march from the mountain to the sea.
Beginning at Anderson, September
the 2nd, he will close with Columbia,
November the 4th. To-day he is at
Georgetown. His campaign has been
a remarkable one; there has been all
along his route the most overwhelm
ing enthusiasm ; at every appointment,
except one or two, he has spoken to
immense gatherings of white and col
ored; at no time has he uttered any
sentiment that any man of any party
could find the least objection to ; his
political opponents, with all their
venom and spite and propensity to
lying, have made no attack on his
character or his record or his motives.
Wherever he has gone he has bad the
very best order-; not a single disturb
ance has occurred at any of his meet
ings. If in a heated political camu
paign his character and presence are
so highly respected by all and so po
teat for good, how happy will South
Carolina be when he is her Governor !
The radical party once buried in
South Carolina there is for it no resur
rection.
At least, that was the opinion ex
pressed by the Union-Herald May
1st, 1876, and is, no doubt, its opi.n
ion to-day. Why ? Will not the
colored people still be in the majority
as they have been hitherto ? Certain
ly. It will be in their power, if they
wish, to put the democrats out and
the republicans in at any succeeding
election. Why, then, does the Un
jon-Berald think if the democratic
party gets into power now it will re
main in power ? Simply because it
knows, -and the radical leaders and
carpet-baggers know, that the demo
cratic party will give to the people of
the State a gorvrnment so far supe
rior to the present and the past rad
ical government that they will desire
no retura'to radicalism. It will be
here as it is in Arkansas, Mississippi
.a thr outhern States where the
steady!
The great ci-isis is near at hand. In
'ess than a week the coutest is to be
decided. and we are to know whether
this State is to be plundered further
by the unscrupulous officials that have
brought her almost to ruin and bank
ruptcy, or whether she is to be gov
erned by wise and honest men who
will study to secure the people's good
and not their own self.aggrandizenent.
The contest is one of the most intense
interest; it is one that the honest
people cannot afford to lose. If Cham
berlain and his crew should be elected
it would be the greatest calamity that
could befall the State. The people,
white and black, have had no pros
perity for eight years, and can never
have it under the unscrupulous and
corrupt rule of the present leaders of
the Radical party. The only persons
who have prospered, who have made
money and lived comfortably, have
been these same men who have held
the offices and got the salaries and
what Nash calls the "pickins," that
is, stealings. But there is hope, a
strong and well-grounded hope, for
better things. The Democratic party
and the honest mea in tue Republican
party have risen in their might and
said, "Thus far, and no farther.'" The
outlook to-day is exceedingly encour
aging. It only remains for the reform
party to continue in the same earnest,
.active, peaceable course they are now
pursuing, and victory will be theirs.
Let them feel and manifest all the en
thusiasm and determination possible;
let them "yell" for "Hampton and
Reform" till they make the welkin
ring from the mountain to sea; but
then let them not be driven by the
taunts and jeers and indignities of the
Radical leaders to any act of violence.
The hcpes of Chamberlain depend on
getting up a row. The Democrats
are determined to disappoint him.
The ballot-box is their only intended
means to victory. By that they will
command him and his corrupt asso
ciates on the 7th of November, in the
most unmistakable language to "step
down and out," and give place to
honest and competent men.
Judges Cooke and Mackey.
These two Republican judges were
elected to the Bench by a Republican
Legislature. 'We do not remember
ever to have heard any charges of cor
rption, incompetency, or unfitness
alleged against them ; certainly not
by the dical party till they declared
themse yes opposed to Chamberlain.
Before that time Chamberlain's Union
erald was always ready with words
of praise for them, and when some of
the Radical members of the last Legis
lature were attempting to bring charges
against Judge Mackey, this same
detestable organ and Governor Cham
berlain were his most vigorous sup
porters and defenders. They had no
fault to find with the Judge then.
But a change has come over the Gov
ernor's dreams. While these men
supported him, the Union-Herald
praised them to the skies; now that
they support Hampton instead, it
attempts to vilify themi in the most
shameless manner. This is the tune
the organ plays now : "The burden of
the campaign is now to be put on the
two Catspaws." "Cooke and Mackey
are now put forward by the Democrats
to talk treason. They are dubbed
Republicans. The jails are full of
such Republicans, and ought to be
fuller by two." So we have a new
definition of "treason," one that never
occurred to the stupid intellects of
Johnson, Walker and Webster, but
was reserved for the great mind of the
great "statesman and scholar" from
Massacusetts to conceive.
Cooke and Mackey are not the men
to be driven from the line of duty by
Chamberlain's mud-throwers. They
ae not the men to see this their native
State pillaged and disgraced by a gang
of infamous Radical carpet-baggers
for the sake of any party name. They
have taken a manly stand in this cam
paign. They have proved that they
love their State more than their party,
as every true patriot does. They are
Republicans. They can say witi
Chamerlain, in all sincerity : "The
party-may she ever be right ;" but
they will not say with him, "right o:
wrong- my party."
A Sensitive candidate.
L. Cass Carpenter is a very sensi
tive man for a public speaker-very
When he was here, the 16th, he cu

democrats interrupted him. At Pick

predicted in May. Speaking of ti
success of the democratic party
Arkansas and Mississippi, it said :
We can easily conceive of a lil
state of affairs being brought about
South Carolina. It only needs ti
success of the ring politicians of tl
State in their effort, begun in the la
convention and mneasurably successfu
to set back the hands now pointing t
ward reform. Let the party indica
to the people of the State that inster
of progress there is to be retrogressio
that "there is two years of good ster
ing" in South Carolina if the repub~
can party can secure it, and the m
chine here will tumble to pieces
quickly and be as hopeless of repa
as in Arkansas and Mississippi.
The party has indicated to the pe
pe of the State that instead of pi
gress there is to be retrogress ion ;th
it expects "two more years of go<
stealing." A.ll the contingencies<
which the prediction was bi'sed ha
happened, and the prediction itsE
will soon be verified. The machil

-What General Buger Nays4 in
Transmzitting Attorney-Gen
eral Taft's Order.
General Ruger, who commands the
Department of the South, with'hcad
quarters at present at Columbia, has
issued a circular order to commanding
officers of posts, in which he defines
their duties under the circular of At
torney General Taft. His view of
a the matter of employing the military
I iu a peaceable State in a time of pro
I found peace is of unusual interest to
the people of South Carolina at the
present moment. The commanding
general, after reminding the officers
s that the orders are explicit and -fur
- nish all instruction necessary for their
n guidance, says:
9 You are expected to be prompt and
firm in the execution of your duties,
y tempered, however, with sound discre
- tion and ierfect courtesy. Whenever
bodies of troops are stationed in or
sent for duty temporarily to localities
. where disturbances are apprehended,
they may and should exercise a strong
influence in the interests of peace and
[t ood order-not by offensively or un
>- duly meddling with local or political
[f affairs, but by courteous, upright and
. discreet conduct, inspiring all parties'
with confidence in their desire to pro
tect lives, property, and, so far as they
legally can, the right of all unoffend
d ing people whom the civil authorities
)r way fail to protect. Impress it upon
s the minds of your officers, when sent
on detached service, to let it be 'dis
' tioctly and decidedly understood that
their influence and that of their cou
o Uands is all on the side of good order
t and justice; that they are aot therein
d the interest of any political party, ex
" cept so far as either may be benefited
iby the enforcement of law in protect
it ing the unoffending and restraining
)r violence and disorder; and instruct
e- your officers that their actions and
j. premises will be expected to corres
' pond. In localities where disturbances
of a political nature are apprehended,
undue or excessive intimacy with ac
b- knowledged leaders of either party
7 would almost inevitably lead to the
destruction of an officer's influence for
~egeeral good for the community, and
nis, therefore, to be avoided.

iAt a meeting of the Newberry Bar, held on

eadopted:
VIt having pleased Almighty God, in the

remove from -earth our friend and fellow

hResolved, 1st. That while we bow in hum

of a valued friend, a public-s,>irited and use

is- Aye, that is the question. Is it better to
ll quiver from head to foot in the paroxysms
leof fever and ague, or to banish the atrocious
hdisease by a course otf that standaird anti
lc. febrile remedy, Hlostetter's Bitters. There
be cannot be much, doubt as to the response of
the malaria-stricken to this inquiry. From
every locality on this continent whose inhab
itants are tormented with the shivering

en only genuine preventive and eradicant of

of fever and ague districts well know how
as utterly inadequate to do more than give a

LITTLE LILLIAN STEPUEVNS.
This lovely chi'd of Mr. Pickens Stephens,
vith the fresh bloom of life on her cheek,
vas taken suddenly fiom the family circle
md carried away to the spirit land October
he 7th, 1876.
She wa, a brigIt Ild loveable little girl,
Id lhad won the affections not only of the
iom1e-Circl, but of many others, who saw in
ier the qnick perception and a gent!eness of
Paiitier ihat would make her, very early in
ife, both the s.ife guide and the centre of a
jappy home. But while yet it was morning,
md before-lotg before-the sun had risen
:o the zenith, the reaper came and reaped
this sweet flower. She died of diphtheria.
illian was born Maret 20th, 1870. She
:os,ed over the river only a little in advance
)f others sonn to follow. If only our ears
vere not so dail might we not hear her from
the heavenly land singing some sweet senti
nent as this:
,I shine in the light of God,
His image stamps my brow;
rhrough the shadows of death my feet have
trod,
And I reign in glory now.
Lo breaking heart is here,
No keen and thrilling pain,
No wasted cheek when the burning tear
Hath rolled and left its stai-i."
LITTLE EMMA STEPHENS,
Who was sick with diptheria during the
illness of her sister, whose death is recorded
bove, was separated from her by the dark
river for only one day, and was then, also,
released from life October 8th, 1876. Emma
was born September 16th, 1872, and was just
entering her fifth year. Sprightly and affec
tionate and obedient, it is hard to know that
we shall no more hear the glad voice, nor
meet the merry laugh that burst so often
from her glad heart.
"We miss her footsteps on the stair,
We miss her always, everywhere."
These two little sisters were united in life
and they were not separated in death. They
were buried in the same grave.
Lillian and Emma lie side by side in the
new grave. Oh! God help tie stricken ones.
LITTLE IDA STEPHENS.
Another and the last child of this sorely
afflicted family, whose illness with the same
disease, diphtteria, was of much longer con
tinuance and of a more painful type, was re
moved from them by the hand of death Oc
tober 19m. 1816. During Ida's illness hope
and fear alternated in the balance; but at
last the disease baffled the skill of the phy
sician and loosed life's cord. She was born
September 23d, 1874, and was jast entering
her third year.
Two other children of Mr. Stephens and
wife had been taken from them some three
years ago. And now there are five-all they
have ever had-side by side under the beau
tiful cedars, and five in Heaven.
"Oh! heaven is nearer than mortals think
When they look with a trembling dread,
At the misty future that stretches on,
From the silent home of the dead."
"The eye that shuts in a dying hour,
Will open the next in bliss;
Tbe welcoie will soa-rid in the heavenly world
Ere the farewell is hushed in this."
