Address ofthe State Democratic r Executive Committee. The State Democratic Executive 0oJM*ttee yesterday adopted unani mously the following address and or '.:'dered1-it, to be published : HEADQUARTERS STATE DEMOCRATIC EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE, CoLUMRIA, S. C., Aug. 22, 1878. To the People of South Carolina: The State Democratic Executive Committee announce to their fellow citizens that the State canvass i ill formally open on September 10th. Already the counties in general are ready for action, and the Committee cannot doubt that the campaign will - be as brilliant as brief. Throughout the canvass the De - ocracy of South Carolina will have but one rule of conduct. The plat form of 1876, adopted and reaffirmed Sin 1878, is the supreme law of the Democratie party. By it the highest and the lowest are bound. No person, or body of persons, other than a State .-Convention, can change or modify its Saise, provisions and patrotic declara . ions. Within the lines of the piat form the Democracy are safe. Out Sside of it and beyond it, there is no true Democracy in South Carolina. No issue not made in the platform and A.neonistent with it can be raised. o issue made on the platform and osistent with it can be ignored. The platform of the Democratic Ortyof South Carolina is at once a iitory and a prophecy It is the eoord of what is past, and the as ZI surance of what is to come. In it are ered Democratic principles and -Democratic practice. The issue in < South Carolina, as made by the Demo Ofratic party, is not an issue of race. 0 'Onthe contrary, the objects of the -Dem6ocracy, in retaining control of the are to complete the reform of to punish public criminals, to in the purity and ability of the ebvernment in all its branches, to X,4ower the rate of taxation and lessen '.?h&bnrdens imposed upon the people, to ensure peace and concord, and, in eluding all else, to give equal and CoM e protection to every public right person and property, in order that the Government, in the hands of the ratio party, shall be the Gov nent of no one section, of no one 4 ce, of no one class, but the whole ople 9f South Carolina, without lim h iation or restriction. N i-o far as time and opportunity have ~dmittd, the Democratie party has ketto the letter and in spirit every '~"j~egeor promise made in the plat jom-of 1876. The State officers -elected two years ago are again the candidates of the party. With the ~same platform and the same candidates olding beneficent possession of every - department of the State Government, :the Democracy of South Carolina Sdeserve success and command it. igilance is necessary. Action and -ineessant -work are indispensable. 'Unity must be had. They who slum ber on in false security, they who postpone 'preparations for the figh':, drthey who encourage or permit dissen i~ iozn and division, for any reason or upon any pretext, are as much the >:public enemies as the political lepers -hom Democratic rule drives into the :z enitentiary or out of the State. laeontents, laggards, disorganizers, -shah not pull down the Democratic -< prty, although they multiply its diffi culties and make the struggle harder andsmore desperate ; and, when the S battle is-won, as it shall be, the Dem Socratic party, for its own sake, will will pass sentence upon any who, not 'being with us, are against us, and -make them, for all time, politieal out e 7asts, despised by Democrats of their own race and shunned by the colored -:'Democrats who have been tried and ~ave kept the faith. -For the white Democrats, the State Committee are sure, no other exhorta tion is needed. They know full well ~that Deinocratic rule is worth having, S ad that what is worth having is worth keeping, and will be kept. SBy the colored Democrats, as the State. jommittee believe, the solid advantages of an enlightened and hon '' est government are thoroughly appre eiated. They have seen and felt the I -difference between integrity and ras eality, between lofty justice and parti san rule. The hope is that the colo red people, in larger numbers than ever before, will march beneath the folds of - the Democratic banner, and -so assist the Democracy in perpetua -. ting the work of Governmental reform anid industria Irestoration. The reign of ignorance and vice in - South Carolina is past and gone. Virtue, intelligence and elevated statesmanship shall, as during the last two -years, control the pubhie - afairs of South Carolina. For this Alepeople fought in 18'76, and the sceptre then grasped for the first time ---in- eight years by pure and strong hands will not be laid down and shall not be wrested away. -JOHN D.

The State and Con grssional nominees, besides other speakers, are expected to attend. Gov. Hampton is now in feeble health, but we hope he will recupe rate sufficiently to be with us the 10th. A few of the up-country ap pointments are: Laurens, Septem ber 12th ; Edgefield, September 30th ; Lexington, October 3d. *~ The Bond Court. This Cour-t, composed of Judges Thomson, Aldrich and Hudson, State's Attorneys Youmnans, Pope and Meetze, and such other lawyers as have State claims to contest, ad journed Friday to October 1st. At torney-General Youmans being ab sent in Massachusetts to represent the State in the Kimpton Habeas Corpus proceedings, and Mr. Meetze being at home sick, Mr. Pope did not care to proceed without the op pounity of consulting with them. The Smitten Cities of the West. The accounts from New Orleans of the spread of the terrible scourge are heartrending in the extreme. The number of ~victims increase every day, and the deepest gloom spreads over the doomed city. In one day there were 136 new cases, and 41 deaths. Clear Springs, Miss., and Fort Eads are experiencing the fever. At Grenada it is reported as the most fatal and malignant fever ever known in this country. In Vicksburg the cases are in reasing-quarantine abolished. Memphis in the same sad condi bion. Two yellow fever deaths reported .t quarantine off New York-no new cases. Twelve hun dred dollars have been subscribed at Norfolk for the fever ocalities. 50,000 persons are reported as aed from New Orleans. The negroes at Grenada are drop ping down like sheep, and will not belp each other. Ninety-three deaths up to date. LATEST.-Up to the 24th, at New Orleans, there -have been 1,673 eases and 534 deaths ; in Vicks burg, for 12 days, 400 cases and 69 deaths ; in Memphis, during six lays, 144 cases and 53 deaths; Port Sibson, 118 cases and 9 deaths. A~t Grenada so many of the remain og population are stricken with ever that definite information can 20t be obtained. The New York elevated railroads tre causing great trouble, and it is ;hought that when they run on Suna loys, which will be f.hecae son,n How Can narmony Be Se cured? The County Convention Thurs lay, the 22nd, was the most inhar nonious Democratic meeting, of my kind, it has ever been our for :nne to see. Faction reigned sn )reme. Democrats were arrayed igainst Democrats in bitter hostili ty. And for what? Because one ;et of delegates wanted C. H. Su ber for the Legislature and another wanted George Johnstone. An utsider would have supposed that only two men in Newberry County were fit to go to the Legislature; and each faction acted as if it thought the salvation of the County depended on the election of its man. So intense did this factious spirit become that passion usurped the place of reason, and it finally be came necessary to adjourn the Con vention, to give the delegates and the people at large time and oppor tunity for calm deliberation. Now that such opportunity is given steps should at once be taken to prevent a similar occurrence. Newberry County has already suffered much from Thursday's proceedings, and we cannot afford to further jeopar dize her fair name and her most sa cred interests for the sake of any one man, or any two men. It is not by any means necessary, and we make bold to say that it is by no means important, that either C. H. Suber or George Johnstone shall go to the Legislature. There are other men as competent, as patriot ic, as faithful, as well qualified in every particular, as either of them, who would serve the State and County viith as much credit and as much usefulness-men whose nomi nation would put a speedy end to strife and dissensions and restore peace and harmony to the people. The only proper and safe coarse open to the Democratic Party of Newberry County is to drop both Suber and Johnstone. The friends of both owe this much to the good name of the County ; they owe it to the cause of friendship between neighbor and neighbor ; they owe it to the peace and good order of the community ; they owe it to the whole State, which looks to New berry to do her duty in maintain ing a solid Democracy. As matters now stand a compromise is utterly impossible, and a victory to either faction would be as bad as a defeat. One will not withdraw from the field unless both do. Then why should both not agree, for the sake of unity and harmony, to retire ? If they will not, or cannot, agree to retire let the people, who are the friends of both, retire them. Only in this way can harmony be se cured. _____ The Abbeville Democracy. Abbeville County had her Prima ry Election Saturday, the 17th inst., for candidates. The number of votes polled was 2,716. For Sena tor, Di-. J. C. Maxwell received 2, 574 votes. The nominees for the House of Representatives are: W. K. BradlIey, 1,836 votes ; R. R. Hemphill, 1,779; J. H. Rice, 1,721; H. H. Harper, 1,719 ; Sam'l Mc Gowan, 1,718. Probate Judge, J. Fuller Lyon, 2,406. County Com missioners, S. J. Hester, 1,633; G. M. Mattison, 1,387. For School Commissioner and for the third County Commissioner no candidate got a majority. There was only one candidate for the Senate ; nine for the House; one for Probate Judge ; three for School Commis sioner ; and eleven for County Com missioners. The election passed off quietly.__ _ _ _ The Laurens Democracy. The Democratic County Conven tion of Laurens County met Satur day, the 17th, and made the follow ing nominations: For the House of Representatives, J. Wash Watts, Wade Anderson, J. B. Humbert. Judge of Probate, A. W. Burnside. County Commissioners, Hugh Lea man, Willis Jones, J. T. Medlock. School Commissioner, D. T. Dial. Coroner, C. E. Franklin. For County Treasurer they recommend ed Jasper Martin, and for Auditor, no choice. The candidates for the House and for Probate Judge and two County Commissioners, and the School Commissioner are the pres ent incumbents. orth Georgia Stock and Fair Association. The First Annual Fair of the Torth Georgia Stock and Fair As ociation will be held at Atlanta, a., commencing Monday, October 21st, 1878, and continuing one ~veek. It promises to be one of the argest affairs of the kind ever 'own in the South. There will >e $14,000 distributed in premiums rn exhibits: ~4.500 in pu'ses on 4tate Sunday School Conven tion. Representatives from various Sun :ay Schools in the State met in Greenville on Wednesday, and or ganized a State Convention by Blecting as President, Prof. J. H. Carlisle; Vice-Presidents, Rev. W. P. Jacobs, Rev. Dr. Hiden, R. D. Senn, Esq., Rev. Dr. Muller and T. Hay, Esq.; Secretary, A. P. Abell, Esq.; Assistant Secretary, Rev. T. E. Gilbert; Statistical Secretary, Chas. Petty, Esq. The reports from the different Counties represented were interest ing and encouraging. Teacher's Meetings and Institutes elicited an animated discussion. The following questions were found in the "Question Box": Do not the excellent Sunday School papers and magazines of the pres ent day take the place of the libra ries ? What is the Superintendent to do when neither he nor his mem bers can lead in singing? Do Sun day School celebrations at which children are required to sing and recite, result in good to the school? The best methods of reaching the masses ; the influence of the Sunday School on the Church; the best methods of organizing County Conventions; International Les sons; and the Influence of Sunday Schools in Families, were among the many interesting subjects dis cussed. Newberry was represented by Rev. L. Broaddus, T. V. Wicker and J. 0 Peoples. Spartanburg and Charleston were suggested as places for the next meeting. State News. It is reported that Governor Hampton has recovered from his sickness in Spartanburg, and has gone to the mountains. The 20th was the hottest day of the season in Charleston. At 2 P. M., although the wind was blowing with a velocity of six miles an hour, the thermometer registered 97. The colored people are having a good time in Charleston catching catfish. Never before were catfish so plentiful. All the old Maumas and little negroes are improving the golden opportenity. A colored youth, fifteen years of age, was run over and killed by a switch engine at the C. C. & A. R. R, Columbia, the 21st. He was trying to jump on the engine while in motion to get a free ride. Mr. A. M. Boozer, Clerk of the Supreme Court, in Columbia, and his wife, were poisoned from drink ing buttermilk, on Wednesday morn ing last. It is supposed the milk was poisoned by the cane. It is possible they will recover. Jeff David has again been re spited by the Governor, and this time till the third Friday in Decem ber. This is the third respite, and was done on the recommendation of the Judge before whom the case was tried. He will serve that time in the penitentiary. The "army worm," says the An derson Intelligencer, has made its appearance in this community, and is destroying the crops of young turnips, clover, etc. The worms at tacked the washing of a gentleman in town the other day and ruined the clothes. At present the rav ages are confined to small spots, and we hope that the pest may not become general.

Democracy at Williamston. To-day the Democracy of William ston again throws its banner to the breeze. At an early hour and a given sigarl, they seemed to spring like the historic clan of "Roderic Dhu," from rors, and hills, and heath crowned dingle, till they stood before us in proud array, presenting a solid front and unbroken ranks as if to say such is Democracy. I think the object of the meeting was a Battalion drill, but I will not vouch for the assertion, be ing deficient in the military branch of education. Messrs. Orr, Brown and Murray were the orators of the day, and added new lustre to their already widespread fame as -indefatigable la borers in the cause of Democraoy. We missed the soul-stirring music which the Anderson band has heretofore dis coursed on such occasions; but on the whole the day was a pleasant one in all respects, and we trust served to in crease the roll and strengthen the ranks of the noble Democratic army, which fought such a perilous fight and gained such a signal victory in bhe dark days of 1876. All honor to them and their leader brave, Hampton's the man the State t) save, Aain well pra that victory rest, For THE HEnALD. Our Washington Letter. WASHINGTON, D. C., August 21, 1878. 11 Gen. Sherman has gone, as the National Republican thinks, to the Txs border, the act probably "meaus busincss." It is to be regretted that Conkling's Senate Committee, appoint ed specially to take charge of our rela tions with Mexico at a time when, as now, the Administration threatened w.4 r, did not make at least a par.ial re port before Congress adjourned. The fact that war with a weak and demor alized people like the Mexicans can have but one result is not an argument for such a war. There is, practically, no limit to our resources in men and money. Of the latter Mexico has none whatever. If war is declared we shall add an immense strip of val uable territory to our present domain, assume several milli(ns of dollars of doubtful claims against Mexico, add also to our debt the cost of the war, and still have the same border trou. bles we now have. If there is any honorable means of avoiding the con test we should avoid it, and Congress, if it assembles in time, should take such action as will compel the Admin istration to be cautious. Various charges, which seem to have some foundation, and which will certainly be investigated, are made in connection with the bill, passed at the last session of Congress, by which the United States general government is made to guarantee the payment of principal and interest of the District Three-sixty-five Bonds. A New York Bank held several millions of them and made an enormous amount by the rise in value of the bonds consequent upon the act of Congress. It is charged that ready money was paid to some members and that others were guaranteed the profits on certain amounts of the bonds. Two members of the Senate Committee on the Dis trict of Columbia-both Radicals are mentioned as having profited in the last mentioned way. On the part of the House Committee the names of men of both parties are mentioned. The subject is of great interest, as these bonds have been largely pur chased in the East and North. If we are to believe that Kearney ever had any commanding position among workingmen, we must admit that he seems to have lost it. Whether his own coarseness and lack of method have injured him, or his advocacy o: Butler, will be a mystery for a long time. Whether Kearney injured But. ler or not is another. That each in jured the other is likely. Kearney may in some things be worse than Butler, and in others Butler worse than Keazrney. You remember the indiffere.nce of the woman when her husband and the bear were fighting. It is easy for most of us to refrain from shedding tears when we see Kearney lose his influence with the deluded laboring man, or when it be comes plain that Butler has lost all hope of preferment. The Health Officer says Washing. ton will not have yellow fever as an epidemic this time, but he expects a few cases. He will quarantine as soon as the disease reaches Norfolk, the only place from which it is likely to come to Washington. The high gov ernment officials have very generally left the city, but upon engagements made prior to the fever scare. SOLON. For Sale-A fine country residence, with choice surroundings, etc. This frequently means that the occupant wishes to regain health ; because a residence in a malarial district will induce blood poisoning, and bencee disease. This can be most expeditious ly counteracted by the prompt ad ministration of Dr. Bull's Blood Mix ture. FoR THE HERA LD. Reunion.' ST. MARK's, EDGEFIELD Co., August 17th, 1878. EDITORs HERALD: Presuming that you, as well as your readers, would like to hear of anything that pertains to the interesi; of Newberry College, we send you the following epitomized acount of the reunion held at St. Mark's in Edgefield County, on the l'th inst., by the alumni, students, and ex-students of Newberry College, in the interest of education and said institution. At ten o'clock the audi.. ene assembled in the Church. Rev. C. P. Boozer, pastor of above named Church, was called to the chair. The exercises were opened with prayer by Rev. S. P. Hughes. An address of welcome was delivered by Rev. C. P. Boozer. Rev. S. P. Hughes was then introduced to the audience, and spoke on the subject-Education Practically Considered. Dinner was then announced, and after an intermission of about one hour the audience reassembled in the Church. Mr. Elbert H. Aull, of Ninety-Six, was then introduced, and delivered an address on The Educational Claims of the Rising Generation. Prof. Geo. D. Haltiwanger was next introduced. Theme-Education and Newberry Col lege. The exercises being at a close the audience was dismissed with the benediction by Rev. C. P. Boozer. Owing to the inclemency of the weather the crowd was larger than we anticipated, which manifests the deep interest these good people take in our College and education. C. P. BOOZER, President.

Address of the Democratic Ex eentive Committee. tas -~~~ in To the Democratic Ioters of Net- kn tal berry County: Po Differences of opiniocs and personal c' preferences divide you. You who as ot soldiers stood bravely shoulder to shoul- Ai der in war, and who in peace have op- b posed an impenetrable front to the v jo tyrannies and exactions of a common al foe, have become temporarily disunited t Ut at the very hour when victory offers ju se to crown your exertions. Personal av feelings, assisted by unfortunate acci- is M de dents, have unexpectedly disordered your otherwise invincible ranks, and threaten, unless speedily brought under de he your control, to work a disaster which pe all the power of Radicalism failed to ' C effect. of co A crafty and remorseless enemy D watches these divisions with gloating to eyes. He expects you to be torn si asunder by your own dissensions, and SV upon the ruins of your party hopes to fi build a more formidable structure of e aC tyranny than that we have lately bro- t ken down and trampled under foot. 1( g) He counts upon tumult and even - bloodshed in our ranks; he fancies himself already holding the balance of power between contending factions of G , Democrats; he dares to imagine for z himself victory, power and plunder re achieved for him in security by our tu struggles to overcome each other. M It is in your power, and in yours b alone, to thwart these designs and P ai make peace, harmony, success and r blessings for the County. And to ef- I b feet these things, you have only to A C4 throw aside all prejudices, to forget ti past differences, to bold your personal feelings under control, and to set be g fore your minds, as the only proper s b objects of your efforts, harmony and fellowship amongst yourselves and peace and prosperity for the County. tj The eyes of the State, and of other States are upon you: the fair fame of the County is at stake; your own o honor and patriotism is on test; the happiness of your wives and children, vi the fortunes of an imnioverished and ' long ill-used people are in your hands; the fate of our future times, in no 1 small degree, depends upon your action. ~ Is it, therefore, possible that you will C suffer pride, prejudice or personal af- e fection to render you careless of your duty? ? We trust not. We know too well a your heroism and magnanimity in the a past, to doubt about your bearing in ' the future. You know the interests si b of the people; you know the vast re- S sponsibilities resting upon you; you love your country too well to let any. I thing stand in the way of its prosperi- b ty; you are too wise and too noble, to ti let any individual feeling, or any inidi- ti vidual interest or ambition operate b against the general welfare. h We therefore implore you, by your I dignity and sense of duty, by all the b responsibilities and aims of an honor- g able life, to subdue all personal thought ~ and feeling, and to join hands and hearts in the struggle for the public welfare. Let us move forward, as one man, proclaiming everywhere and at all times our watchword, "HarmonyA and union amongst all Democrats, and c down with all Radicalism !"

The September number of the ECLECTICL MAGAZINE opens with one of the best studies of American politics that has ever appeared in an English periodical. It is entitled "The Lire and Times of James e Madison," but it covers a much wider field than its title would seem to imply, and is, in fact a comprehensive and philosophic survey of the eventful twenty-five years which followed the close of our Revolu tionary War and shaped the political des- C tinies of the country.

C., Aug. 1st. 1858 id fell asleep in Jesus in Spartanburg, Jul3 nd, 1878. Sister Moore was blessed with pious pa nts who endeavored to train her in the nur re and admonition of the Lord, and wa erefore by the trace of Go4, early in life ade ready for the acceptance of the trutt it is in Jesus. At the age of eleven sh came convinced that It was her duty ani -ivilege to become a member of the church id accordingly asked pernission of her pa nts, which being granted, she was receive' to the Methodist Episcopal Church South Rev. J. A. Porter, at Georgetown Station lthough she lived from this time forth i nsistent member, attending regularly t e Christian duties devolving upon her, stil ie did not claim regenerating Grace unti ovember, 1874. This occurred at a reviva ieeting conducted in Spartanburg, by Evan elist George Pierce and Rev. J. A. Porter he then received the witness of the spiri earing witness with her spirit that she wa child of God. She was married to David Fleming Moore aly 21st, 1875. Iz this new relation she con nued to walk. humbly before God, and he niform piety was, as he testifies, a gres iritual blessing to her husband. Her last illness continued nearly thre Lonths, and during the weary, painful hour f this season of affliction, her meekness o pirit and resignation to the Divine will wer iost conspicuous and deeply impressed al ho ministered to her of the value of the re gion of Christ. Her physician remarke iat in a practice of thirty years he had no ritnessed a more per:ect model of patience Sister Moore was not aware of the fatal na re of her sickness until the day she passel way. When first spoken to by her Pastol ev. J. M. Carlisle, concerning her prepara on and readiness to die, she expressed het alf as not being entirely satisfied with he endition and prospects for the future; di! ot feel fully prepared. She asked that pray r be offered. Not long after this, with a coun mance beaming with delight, she trium hantly exclaimed: "It is all right-Jesa as forgiven all- my sins-I can now sat ~od's will be done." A friend repeated thi ords of the song, "What a frienid we bay< SJesus," and she requested tVbat it be sung Dd sang it with them. At the close she re tarked, "Jesud is my friend."
