[From The Greenville News.j Reminiscences. The death of a relative or dear friend always prompts, in a sympathetic mind, a retrospect of the past ; the past ! oh, how full of sweet as well as sad memories-of buried hopes-of neglect of the first duties of life! Hw often' the thought comes to us, unbidden-if we had only done our duty to ourselves and to others, how happier would we now be, and how briglper would be the future for us here 'and hereafter! But I do not propose to indulge in sentiment, tho' it be the soft whispering of the di viner part of human nature, which in spires the beart to worship the ideal of the beautiful and the good. A day at Newberry, tho' in the midst of political excitement and party'strife, in which personal am bition sought to gain its ends, re called to my mind the changes which time had wrought in a few fleeting years. Since the year 1849, when I first became acquainted with the peo pie of Newberry-a mere dot in the progress of time-what a change has taken place in her people! Then, O'Neall and Johnstone, bright lund naries of the Bench of South Carolina, were in their prime, and a host of others, tho' not as eminent, still dis tinguished and useful iR their respec tive spheres, have pasgA away. Gen eral James J ,.well, afterwards _____r o--'hen stood at the head of the Newberry Bar. With him, every member of that Bar have gone to their last account, except Major Lam bert J. Jones and G. G. DeWalt. John Caldwell, one of the most brilliant men of his time, was then living ; so -was his brother, Patrick C. Caldwell, both first cousins, by blood, .of John Caldwell Calhoun. It is sad to follow the catalogue of the dead further.; But I am constrained to do it. Y. J. Harrid-ton, the old Clerk of the Court, and one who always was found in his office, as Deputy, John S. Carwile, both held in the highest es timation by the people, not only for their official integrity but for their private virtues. Hugh K. Boyd, then the Ordinary of the county, General H. Kinard, Sheriff, Francis B. Higgins- Senator, eight years wn-rT the county; Drayton Nance, once Commissioner in Equity-a man of the old Roman type, who always dAed to do his duty, as he conceived it, irrespective of consequences; Rob ert Moorman, Ex-Senator from the county, than whom no purer man ever sat in the councils of the State ; and my old and cherished friend, Col Simeon Fair, to whose ability -as a lawyer, and great virtues I could not pay too high a tribute-all these and many more I could name are num bered with the dead. When I visited ther cemetery, where most of them lie buried, and moved amidst the scenes where I have so often met them, the words of the poet came back to mind with freshest fragrance : 'Ifeel' like one who treads alone some ban . quet haHl deserted, Whose lights are fled, and garlands dead And ali but he departed." Among the members of the Bar who are now missing, are Thomas H. Pope 'the father of General Y. J. Pope, who' was eminent in his pro. fession, and had the largest practice of .any lawyer then at the Bar; Henry Summer, that good-and kind hearted man so distinguished for his love of books and devotion to general literature; George Eppes, who died just as he was rising into a lucrative practice; Col. A. G. Summer, more widely known as a journalist, and student of natural history and science If I were to give the names of the dead in other professions and pur suits of life, whom I once knew in this county, it would swell the list almost beyond credulity-and this in a ishorter space of time than thirty years! I am not yet entitled to a place upon the roll of "old men," tho' on t'other side of the hill, still, when I call to mind the havoc time has made in this community, I almost feel that I am verging on the con fines of another generation of-boys and girls whose hearts, now buoyant with hope and life leap with joy at the prospdct, before them, but who are destined to follow their fathers and mothers in the same cyele in which they moved. A. C. G. Fat Man Made Haippy.--Loses 61 lbs. PRATTVILLE, Ala., July 20th,18'78. BOTANIC MEDnIIE Co., Buffalo, N. Y. Gentlemen-About three months ago I commenced using your "Anti Fat," at which time my weight was 219 pounds. By following your di rections carefully I have succeeded in reducing my weight to 158 pounds. This is all very satisfactory and pleas ant; but just previous to my Dom mencing the use of your medicine, I had purchased two suits of fine clothes at a high price, and find to my dismay, that they are entirely useless to me now. When I put one of my coats on, my friends tell me it looks like a coffee sack on a bean-pole, and when I put the pants on,-well, description fails. My object in writ ing is to ascertain whether you have not in connection with your medicine business, an establishment where your patrons, similarly situated, could ex change these useless garments for others that would fit. I think you ought to have something of the kind, as it would be an inducement for many to use the Anti-Fat, who now object to using it, in consequence of the loss they would setain' in throwing aside valuable gar ments. Just turn this matter over in your mind... A "Clothing Exchange'' is what you want in connection with your Anti-Fat business. Yours truly, GEORnE BOYD. T.he ier a . THOS. F. GRENEKER, EDITORS. W. H.

We desire to make a few prelimi nary remarks to begin with. The fact that the legislative nomination by the Convention has produced widespread dissatisfaction is too apparent to attempt to deny or to conceal it. That such a nomina tion woU1d not give satisfaction we were fully convinced beforehand, and therefore gave such advice three weeks ago as we thought and still think would have obviated all dissension and trouble. The senti ment of a large majority of the vo ters of this County is against the nomination of two lawyers for the Legislature. Whether there is any foundation for such a sentiment does not affect the matter. The fact certainly exists, and since the nominees are to be elected by the voters of the County, if elected at all, this sentiment is entitled to consideration. But it is too late now to argue such questions: the nominations have been made ; and the only question before the Dem ocracy of Newberry now is, shall we support the nominations ? We answer, Yes, support the whole tick et from first to last. We hope we have seen the last Nominating Con vention in this County ; yet so long as we have a Convention we should abide by its action. This is the only safe course. We are not yet out of the woods. If the Democrats will only stick together this Fall they can rescue the County from the very last vestige of Radical rule; but one false step may ruin every thing. We must remnember that we have an enemy, strong, united and watchful, whose policy is to divide and conquer. Let the Democrats fall out and divide ; let them put two opposing tickets in the field, and this old party of corruption and hate will have no trouble in running in a ticket of their own. Their greed for office and power has in no wise diminished ;their organization is more complete and as firmly united as ours; they out number us; they have declared that they intend to have represen tation, and they will have it, and the Democratic party will be igno miniously defeated, unless it be united. Let every Democrat then stand by the regular nominees, and do what he can to secure their elec Gov. Hmtnhss a eo The Yellow Fever. MEiPS, Sept. 20.-The official report of Yellow Fever deaths in Memphis up to date is 2,240. Many deaths were never reported. Sept. 21.-68 deaths yesterday, and 64 to-day. NEw ORLEANs,Sept. 20.--69 deaths, including 22 children under seven years of age. The fever is spread ing in portions of the city, and many are dying in the surrotinding coun try on the plantations. Sept. 21.-62 deaths, among them 26 children under seven years of age. Sept. 22.-Deaths 40; new cases 195. Total cases to date 7,837; total deaths 2,470. GREEN\VILLE, MIsS., Sept. 20.-To tal nirnber of cases to date 350 ; deaths 133-for the last 24 hours, 18. VIcKsBuRG, Sept. 21.-12 deaths; no abatement. 19 deaths at Vicksburg the 19th. Grenada, Baton Rouge, Holly Springs, Canton and other places are still suffering, but most of the inhabitants have either fled or died, and consequently the death rolls are comparatively small. Within the last seventy years New Orleans has had twenty-seven visitations of Yellow Fever. New York up to the 22nd had contributed $218,907.00 ; Philadel phia, $95,000.00; Chicago, $57, 838.00; St. Louis, $69,350.00; Boston, $43,000.00; Baltimore, $50,000.00; Cincinnati and Pitts burg, each $20,000.00; San Fran cisco, $48,400.00; Charleston, $11, 294.77. The above is only a sam ple taken from some of the largest cities. Butler Gets Nominated Twice. The Democratic Convention of Massachusetts met at Worcester, the 17th, to nominate a Governor. A majority of the delegates elected to the Convention were in favor of B. F. Butler, familiarly known as "Spoon Butler," or "Beast Butler.' The State Executive Committee had previously declared their intention to exclude all delegates who were in favor of Butler. The Butler dele gates, numbering nine hundred and seventeen, taking time by the for&e lock,met in the Hall at an early hour annx resolved to hold the fort. They nominated Butler for Governor, and also nominated other State officers. The State Executive Committee declared the Convention adjourned, to meet in Fanenil Hall, Boston, the 25th instant. As the Conven tion was composed of 1,440 dele gates, and Butler got the votes of 917 of them, it looks very much as if Butler has got the Democratic nomination. Butler had previously been nodhi nated by the Greenbackers. He stands a very fair chance of being the next Governor of Massachu setts. Noble Woman. The Memphis Avalanche says, that since the breaking out of the Yellow Fever in that city parents have fled and deserted their chil dren, children have deserted pa rents, husbands have deserted their wives ; but not one wife has desert ed her husband or her children. "0, woman, in our hours of ease, Uncertain, coy and hard to please, And variable as the shade By the light, quivering aspen made WVhen pain and anguish wring the brow A ministering angel thou." Now, Go to Work. We do not think that candidates ought to work for their own nomi nation ; but after they are nomina ted it is their duty-to do all they can to make their election sure. Let the nominees go to work and stump the County. They will nev er be elected unless they do work. Judge Bond, at Baltimore, has decided that a Receiver must be appointed for the South Carolina Rail Road. Mr. Jno. H. Fisher has been appointed Receiver. The case of the G. & C. R. R. will come up next December in Colu-nbia. Among the convicts at the Au burn Prison are forty two lawyers, twenty-seven clergynmen, and thir teen physicians. F. L. Cardozo, ex-State Treasu rer, has been appointed a first-class Clerk in the Auditor's Office at Washington. The official statement of the cot ton crop of the United States for the year 1877-8, is 4,773,865 bales. T Massachustt Rhh'cnns State News. Mrs. Gen. McGowan, of Abbe ville, died the 20th inst. Large and enthusiastic gather ings greet the campaigners through out the State. Rev. Sidi H. Browne will soon move the Christian Neighbor from Columbia to Augusta, Ga. The freshet on the Wateree last week submerged and destroyed 100,000 bushels of corn in Kershaw County. At the primary election in Lex ington County, the 14th, Dr. Ger hard Muller and G. Leaphart were nominated for the House. The County Convention of Rich land adopted a resolution request ing the Legislature to re-establish the South Carolina University. The Aiken Democrats have nom inated for the House of Represen tatives, James Aldrich, Jno M. Bell, Thos. J. Davis and J. D. Brodie. - Thirteen convicts from the Coun ties of Aiken, Sumter and York, arrived at the Penitentiary the 17th. Only one of the number was white. The Williamsburg Democrats have made the following nomina tions: For the Senate, Sam'l W. Maurice. For the House, Geo. J. Graham, J. R. Lambson and Dr. Z. R. Fulmore. At the Democratic primary elec tion in Greenville County, the fol lowing Legislative ticket was nomi nated: Wm. C. Cleveland, Thomp son H. Cooke, Milton L. Donald son and J. Thos. Austin. Austin is the only old member. Richland County Convention met the 17th and nominated the follow ing ticket for the Legislature: Sen ator, Jno. H. Kinsler; Representa tives, Jno. C. Seegers, Jno. E. Ba con, Jno. C. Haskell, Jno. A. El kins and E. McC. Clarkson. The National Executive Commit tee has appointed Senator McDon ad, of Pennsylvania, and Congress men Randolph Tucker and Eppa Hun ton, of Virginia, as Speakers in this State during the campaign. They will come early in October. Foa 'rHE HERALD, Large and Enthusiastic Rally of the Democracy at Long shore's. The impaign opened on Saturday, the 21st inst., at Longshore's. The representative men of Township No. 6, the Williams, Burtons, Long shores and Petersons were there, and a considerable number of colored men. Mr. Higgins called the meeting to order, and introduced as the first speaker Hon. C. H. Suber. Mr. Su ber gracefully acknowledged the comn pliment paid him in his nomination a position he had not sought-and then urged the importance of an united Democracy in the coming contest. He warned the colored portion of his audience of the delusion,.about to be practiced in changing the names of parties; that there were only two real parties, "The Democratic" and "The Republican ;" that the attempt to in duce them to join a new party under the name of Greenback or National Labor, would be like the traveller who, allured by a dazzling light in the dis tance, reaches it only to find it a mirage. "To thine ownself be true, and it follows as the night the day thou cans't not then be false to any one." 'Hon. Geo-rge Johnstone was intro duced as the second speaker. In a forcible manner he drew a picture of the happy condition of the people now, and by an able analysis he contrasted the periods of 1876 and 1878. He called to the attention of his hearers the str'king fact, that from two mil lions of taxes yearly they had been reduced to less than eight hundred thousand dollars. He challenged the examination of his record in the last Legislature, to prove that all the pledges he had made to the colored as well as to the white man, he had faith fully carried out, and then in concli sion eloquently called on the voters of Township No. 6 to vote the whole ticket as nominated by the last Con vention. The two "scarred veterans" of No. 6 were present, and in brief but grace ful manner announced that when elect ed they would do their duty. The feeling in Township No. 6 is very harmonious and the ticket will receive an unanimous vote of the white and colored voters. As a pleasing incident it should be recorded that three of the candidates, Dr. William M. Dorroh, Andrew J. Livingston and Euclydus C. Long shore reside in Township No. 6. There is no record of a single failure of DR. HARTER'S FEVER AND AGUE SPEcIFIc to effect a speedy and per InanAnt cure. Its use has robbed this FOR THE HERALD. Our Washington Letter. WASHINGTON, A. C., September 18, 1878. Wliat Macaulay says of the causes i e which have strengthened and pepetua tvdone of the great churches is full of t insLruction to all who desire the success t of an organization of men. He clo quently tells how those who, by rea soil Gf their peculiarities or weaknesses, t would have been causes of dissension in any other church, have by wise policy become the most zealous and able propagators of the essential be liefs of this one. Perhaps the Demo crats of Massachusetts and not a few other States would profit by a careful reading of Macaulay at this time. The all important task before them, and before all lovers of Constitutional Government in this country, is to wrest from Radical control every place of power-the Congress, the State Governments, and the General Government. They should insist on "uity" in this. They will hardly 1 suffer from proclaiming "charity" in all else. This might even include amnesty to 1 so great a sinner as Butler. Granted that be is a trading politician, an insincere, selfish politician, and that 1 he and his followers hold ideas which, if they should control the future legis lation of Congress, would be dan gerous, iI don't believe he is a whit more insincere than Blaine, Hayes or Sherman, and I don't believe any theory of finance or general legisla tion which he or his friends can in vent, if made to control the Govern ment, could bring a surer or a deeper desolation than will the Radical party if continued in power. Nothing could be worse than that. In the Republican party, recent events including the election in Maine, have produced great and general con sternation. It is said with an ap pearance of truth that Mr. Hayes has undergone another of those.remark able changes of conviction on the financial question, the first of which was made known a year or so ago1 prior to an election then about to be held. All there is here of the Re publican party excepting Secretary Sherman, is claiming that the party is the father of Greenbacks and their best friend, and the Secretary's head is not "level" on all financial ques tions. T he National Republican loudly laments that the Radicals failed to proclaim in Maine their devotion to a currency issued directly by the Gov ernment.. Mr. Gorham, Secretary of the Republican Congressional Commit tee, of which the late Eugene Hale was Chairman, regrets that instead of earging the Democrats with attempt ing to "Mexicanize" the Government, he did not devote all his time an~d elo quence to proving that the Republi cans were the original and o'nly gen uine Greenbackers. Up to yesterday the cash contribu tions of Washington to the yellow fever sufferers had exceeded twenty thousand dollars. The supplies of provisions had also been large. SOLON. Heroic Devotion at the South. Catholic ad Protestant, ,Tew ad Gentile, Have Faced Danger to the End. The Chicago TCmes, which has had exceedingly full reports from the fever-stricken cities of the South, says : "The singular truth appears that from the outbreak of the fever at Grenada, through its ravages in New Orleans, Memphis, Vicksburg, Green ville and in many smaller towns, it has never been charged that a clergy man of any denomination fled from his charge or failed to do his duty. Some fathers have left their families, some doctors have run away from their patients, but there is not a single in stance reported, from the beginning of the plague until torday, of any rep resentative of any form of religious j belief de:erting his post. Hardly a day has passed in which some clergy man, or some sister has not given up life while in the discharge of the ten derest offices. It is a record in the presence of which the bitterest blas phemer cannot find it in his heart to jeer or jibe. It is a manifestation of ] practical religion that touches every heart. The devotion has been con fined to no sect. Catholic and Pro testant, Jew, Gentile and even Budd I hist have faced the danger unflinching ly and have braved it to the bitter end." While Judge T. J. Mackey was holding court in Aiken, an intoxicated fellow walked into the court room, and approaching his Honor, said : "Judge, does you allow spectators in this court ?" "Yes sir; you may take seat," replied the Judge. The seat_ was taken, but after a short silence thes ourt was astonished with a peremptory emand that "This court will now ome to order," coming from said individual. "Mr. Sheriff," said the udge, "put this man out gently, for h lie is a practitioner at the bar, yet it t is evident he has not learned the rules f court." a The blood when deficient in iron, a~ uilds up unhealthy tissue.
