The reply of Gen. Hagood is as
follows :
COLUMBIA, May 6, 1880.
J. E. Brown, Esq.. President of
Carolina Democratic Club, New
berry, S. C.:
DEAR SIR-Your communication
3d instant is received, forwarling to
we the invitation of your club to ad
dress a mass meeting to be assembled
under its auspices.
I beg very sincerely to aeknow
ledge the gratification afforded me by
this evidence or appreciation on the
part of my fellow-citizens of New
berry, and my sense of the kind terms
in which you have been pleased to
convey it.
The issues of the approaching po
litie:l campaign are to us of the
gravest consequence. They involve
the maintenance for the next two
years of the honest and ecououical
administration of State affairs which
was inaugurated in 1876, by exer
tions previously unparalleled in our
political history, and which it will be
difficult to repeat. They involve also
that which alone can place as beyond
the danger of relapse and Radical
rule, and at the same time give us re
tease from the political strain under
wvhich we now labor. The Democracy
have got the State Government, and
and they are going to keep it. but
from the peculiar position of South
Carolina she is liable to be a battle
field between the two National parties
in everv Presidential election so long
as the "Republicans are in power in
'Washington. We need repose and
rest. Four years, if no zmore, of'
National Democratic rule will give e's
this and afford our people time to be
come thoroughly harmonized and,
solidified under the broad banner of
equal rights for all and good govek'
mient for the whole. Politics will not
then be, as it is now with us, a mat
ter of State life, and our people can,
sin a greater degree, turn their energies
?o material progress, while populatien
:and capital from abroad will, in con
fidence, seek to share in developing
the abounding resources of our fav
ored clime.
In view of the magnitude of the
interests at stake, I feel that no risks
should be run which prudence can
avoid, .and that if ever there was a
time when personal aspirations should
be subordinated to the general good,
it is- pro-eminently so with us now.
The united energies and barmnoniousi
action of all the good men of South
Carolina are needed for success in our
local struggle,, and for worthily bear
ing' our part in the great effort for
national i egeneration.
Among the causes, in my appre
hension, tending to impair this har
niony would be a personal canvass be
fore the people by those whose names
have been mentioned by partial
friends for nomination upou the Sta-te
ticket. The heat of mere personal
p-artisanship likely to be engendered.
would be an element of discord be
fore the nomination and a drawback
to harmony afterwards, which we can
iiot afford to encounter.
The friends of every man who is
put forward at such a time as this
for prominent place should be assured
that his record is sufficeiently pro
nounced and known to enable the peo
ple to pass upon his merits without
commentary from himself Theyt
should be passed upon by the pec
r,ie after the fullest and freest dis
c-ussion in the press or otherwise, but
a discussion originating with and
-among the people themselves, and the
decision be reached upon considera
tion of known principles, chiaracte1
and qualification. The unbiased ver
dict of his fellow citizens thus ren
dcr-ed should, as I am sure it will, be
accepted by all who have been hon
c-red by mertion in this connection.
And whether it assigns one to the
baton of leadership or places him in
the ranks, his energies should, and no!
doubt will, be cheerfully and freely
given to the general welfare.
Impressed with these views I have
declined from other sections of the
State invitations similar to that which
vour club has honored me. In this,
as in every other act of my public
life. my course is submitted to the
verdict of those whose interests are at
stake; it is based upon convictions of
what is best for the welfare of m

The Greenville News
Has been bought by Messrs.
Lucas & Richardson, who are
practical printers from Charleston.
Mr. A. B. Williams is to be the
Editor. Mr. Williams is well known
to every man in the State who keeps
ap with the times. It was he that
went with the emigrants to Liberia :
on the Azor, and his letters in the
_Vews and Courier describing the
voyage and the country were read
with interest everywhere. It was
he who wrote the letters to the
same paper describing the treat 1
ment of the convicts on the Green-'1
wood & Augusta Rail Road. These t
letters produced a profound im
pression on the public mind and
led to ta e.orrection of the abuses
complained of. fe is a tireless
worker, and as a writer his style
is forcible and pleasing. He has
an abundance of plic1, brain and
perseverance, and under his leader
ship we expect to see a great im
provement in the Greenville Ners.

ject of human slavery and had2
stood so nobly by the colored race1
in their political rights, could not
consistently refuse to do what it
had asked the nation to do-to ele

showing. But the Conference did
not see it in that light, and "the
colored man and brother"~ is stil L

Of the South met in Richmonnd ~

!e season hais not vet opened'l at
Willi:ouston, but we are here not%with
staiiding and enjoying a brief re-spite
from labor, thanks to our iostess. Mrs.
R. C. Sharpe, whose invitation to coeUi
up was taken advant:age of last Wednes
day. Yesterday. Friday, was :l big day
for Wiili:amston, it being the occasion
of a larae picnie, made by Ninety-Six,
Greenwood, Cokesblury, Ilodges and
Belton. There were fully six hundred
people, and they caine vp on a special
excursion train, loaded, we are happy
to say, wiii a store of the choicest of
substantials and nic nacs. I)r. II. I.
Epting. (our readers remember him,)
made an address of welcome, which
was responded to by Capt. Parks, of
Greenwood, then the crowd disported
themselves at will. It was our plets
nre to pick our nick with the Cokeshury
crowd, or rather with Prof. Jos. Pritch
ard and his lady, who piled on the ago
ny till we had to cry hold enough. It
was a delightful gathering.
In the afternoon, as before announced,
the graduation of two of President Lan
der's pupils took place, to which a gen
eral invitation had been extended, and
sO) overwhelmingly accepted that our
distinguished friend was unable to carry
out his programme as first inten+ied.
The graduates were Miss Gilian Alston
Weber, daughter of the editor of the
C/ristian Adcocate, who was present,
and Miss 1)ora Anderson, of Williams
ton. The exercises, notwithstanding
the fearful jam, were interesting and
pleasant, and at the conclusion, as th_
picnic crowd were thinning out, Mr.
Lander announced that now having
room he would indulge those who re
mained with an exhibition of the C:alis
thenic exercises, which we assure our
readers was a treat worth seeing. The
College, we are gratified to s;y, i; in the
helthiest condition of success.

p)y by the erection of a cotton factory of
the same dimeusions as the Piedmont
the purchase of a site being efected on
Thursday last. It is designed to have
't completed within the year, and some
of ')ir prominent citizens are stockhold
ers in the enterprise.
Before returning home we shall stop
at Cokesbury and break bread with our
good friend the Rev. C. Ti. Pmitchard
and his estimable family-this will oc
cupy Saturday and Sunday.
We cannot conclude this brief letter
withlout a word in commendation of a
naOSt excellent lady, Mrs. Sharpe, our
hostess. She certainly knows how to
keep a& hotel, and caters in a most de
lightful manner to the wants of her
guests, and we assto;e sucb of the public
as come here this summer that there
will be no cause whatever for grumb
ling. The fare is most excellent, could
not be better, while the food is prepared
in the nicest and most appetizing man
nr. It woul be unpardonable in us
id we not add, that spring chicken en
tered largely into the hill of fare every
day of our stay. And now we wvil not
afilet yoLu goQr but say adieu till next
we meet.
"I Don't Wrant That Stufif,"
Is what it lady of Tloston said to her
husband when he brought homc some
medicin'e to cure her of sick headache
and neuraWia which had made her
miserable for fourteen years. At the
first attack thereafter, it was admiui
istered to her wihsgetc god results,
that shie coutinued its use until cured,
and was iladue so enthusiastic in its
praise, that she induced twentry-t vo of
the best families in her j.ife!e to ado)pt
t as tneir reular family mecdici-ue.
That "stuir' is liop llitters.
