After five years of editorial work as editor of tho Laurens Advertiser, Mr. J. C. Carlington severs Ins connection with that journal to go to Spartanburg, whore ho and Mr. W. M. Jones will edit the Dally Herald, a now daily paper to be started in this enterprising city at an ..\rly day. Mr. (.arlington has made for himself quito an enviable roputation in his management of tho Advertiser, willoh has steadily grown in popular favor all tho while. Tho (.'OHIOKU congratulates Mr. darlington on tho upward and on ward stop taken by bim in journalistic lifo, and wishes for him much success in his new enterprise. Mr. W. W. Hall, of I,aurons, has pur chased from Mr. Carlington the Adver tlser, which ho will edit, in the future. Ho outers tho Held of journalism with a bright and trained mind, which argues for. lum, though tho youngest editor in tho State, a brilliant mid successful career. Ho has many friends in Wal halla who remember him as a student in Adger College, where ho was familiarly known as "Willie." Since leaving here ho has graduated from tho South Caro lina College, and was admitted to the practice of law at the last term of the Supreme Court. Here is our ~ "Wil lie," and may success crown your every offert. The Force Hill. It is highly probable thal the Federal election bill, popularly known as the force bill, will la? defeated in Hie Senate. Senator Quay, ?if Pennsylvania, is leading tho opposition to its passage, notwith standing Ibo fact, (bathe is a dyed-in-the wool Republican. He is a wisc and far seeing politician, and be believes ils passage would bc a suicidal policy on the part, of the Kcpiihlicuu parly. He. bas taken a bold and determined stand against the hill, and refuses, so fur, to heed the cracking of the parly whip by Heed, Hear, Chandler, and others ?if thoir ilk. Common sense and a knowledge of Ibo situation as it is, reveals to those Itopuh lioans who are not howling and sectional partisans, the mischievous (endancy of tho bill to the Republican party itself. Hence as good political managers, not a few Northern Republicans seo with Sena tor (Juay that this u d prove not only a blunder in legislation, hut had polities in every way even for heir own parly. And it is (his political foresight that will defeat the hill, rather than any love for the Sontb (hat may act?ale tho Republican leaders. Still let us honor (he names of (bose who have the courage to daml up in tito face of great and consuming party rage, to ?lo battle for what they conceive to be conducive lo Hie common good ol Mic whole country. Mississippi's Constitu? ional Con vention? The Constitutional Convention of Mi sissippi has been in session for several days, discussing tho suffrage problem, and trying to deviso ways ami means to overcome the negro majority in Hie State. The rapidly increasing negro population in (he Ya/.oo Helta is alarm ing, and threatens to Africanize Hie State. The people realize their muni neut danger, which must bc met before the State is in the throes of a corrupt government. This makes tho experi ments now discussed ill tho Constitutional Convention very I n lo resting to tim peo ple of every .Southern Stale, and espe cially to those in which the negroes arc in the majority, as they are in South Carolina. Quito a number of expedients bavc hoon proposed. Kducational and pro porty qualifications, female suffrage under certain restrictions, increased poll tax, disqualification for certain crimes, tho Australian ballot system, are among the most, practical measures now being discussed. Last Thursday the whole day was spent discussing a plan to bestow suffrage pp every woman owning three hundred dollars' worth of property, her vote to bo cast by written proxy by some male relative. The plan developed wonderful strength, and was referred to the Fran chise Committee. Prominent delegates say this plan, coupled with the Austra lian ballot system, is the best solution of tho suffrage problem, and believe the Convention will adopt il.

Rt-lhilon. - I Reported tor tho Koowoo Uourior.] Tho annual re-union of Orr's Iiogi mont of li dos was hold nt Sandy Springs on tho 10th and 14th in stant. Hy a resolution adopted at tho proviouB annual meeting, all the sur vivors in tho counties of Abbeville, Anderson, Oconco and Piokcns wore invited to bo present and participate in tho pleasures of the occasion, which was ono ot moro than usunl interest. The plan of assembling ard re kindling tho camp-fires on tho night previous to tho festival day was ohsorved this year, and in tho after noon and evening of tho 13th, wagons and buggies, laden with pro visions, bedding, ?fcc, wore seen wending their way to the rendezvous, and moro than a hundred veterans bivouacked and spent the night on the grounds in recounting thc hard ships of the march and camp lifo, and in reciting thrilling incidents of bnttlo and scenes of the late war. This is said by those who observe it to he one of tho most pleasant fea tures of these re-unions. Notwithstanding thc morning of the 14th dawned with lowering clouds, threatening rain, yet these soon broke away and the day devel oped into a very propitious ono, and before eleven o'oloei- A. M., there was gathered on the grounds a very large assemblage of ladies and friends from far and near, to groot thc sur vivors and to contrihuto hy their presence to the pleasures of the day, and prominent amongst them 1 may mention Mrs. Orr, thc mother of Orr's Hcgimont, and Mrs. Lc(lbcttor,< widow of the lamented Col. 1). A. Ledhottor, who, besides nu.ny other bravo members of this Kegiincnt, surrendered his lifo in defence of tho ?South on thc bloody field of Second Manassas. These devoted women never fail to attend these re unions when il is practicable for them to do so, thus manifesting thc abiding interest which they still retain in tho survivors of this splen did regiment. An interesting programme had been arranged hy tho committee for the occasion, but conflicting duties and engagements prevented thc at tendance in person of some of thc selected speakers, and thc pleasures of the day thereby curtailed. The meeting was called to order by tho President, Col. G. Mci). Mil ler, and thc exercises of thc day were inaugurated with an appropri ate prayer hy the Rev.-, after which tho address, prepared hy Judge J. .1. Norton, giving a history of Orr's Regiment, from its organiza tion to its departure from thc Coast of South Carolina lo the battle-fields of Virginia, in his absence, holding court, at ttpartanburg', was admirably read hy Col, Co timm. This very carefully prepared and interesting address forms, wc learn, thc first chapter in thc history of Orr's Kcgi incnt, and is to he followed hy others in succession, covering tho entire poriod of its service during tho war, until tho whole has been completed. The audience was next entertained hy Col. K. K. Howcn, who gave a complete history cd* thc services ren dered hy thc 'Jd Kcgiincnt of South Carolina Rifles during the entity period of thc war, with thc excep tion of two campaigns, when he was prevented hy sickness and wounds from hoing present with tho Regi ment, lo-wit : The fi wt Maryland and ICast Tennessee campaigns, which is I to bc supplied by other members of this regiment in tho future, and thc whole to he put together ami care fully compiled for publication. This Regiment was organized by the gallant Col. .lohn V. Moore, of Anderdon, S. C., who also yielded up his life in devotion to his country in thc second battle of Manassas. At the ?-loso ol' Col. Bowen's address, the President announced ii recess of one hour and a hall' for din ner, which consisted of a splendid basket picnic of substantials and delicacies, prepared by tho ladies and friends of thc survivors, which wa> in keeping with the well-known hos pitality ol' thc good people ol' thal community, and was most heartily enjoyed hy all thc participants During thc recess thc busy candi date could he seen passing from oin group ol' citizens to another, muk ?tlf. himself ngrcenblo to all. After recess thc audience re-asscni hied, and was entertained in ai address by Col. .1. S. Colhrnil, llpoi thc political questions of the day and he gave some wholesome advice touching the importance ol' unity ii thc Democratic party in our State whicli was listened to with deep In terest by all present. Ile said thal he had never sought ollie; that tin people had been very kind in elect lng hint to positions of honor; ilia: he was grateful to them for it; thai his political ambition was satisfed and announced his desire ami in ton lion to retiro to the pursuits of pri vate professional life as carly as prac ticab'c. The Colonel caine dowi from Washington, and said he hat travelled over live hundred miles ti he present at thc re-union; that lu could not forego the pleasure o hoing present ami mooting willi his old comrades in arms nt lonst once ft year, and that ho expected to attend those nnnufll niootings ns long ns ho wn? able to do so; and After a tribute to tho momory of tho Hov. A. 1*. Nicholson, who had boon present with us the yoar beforo, but had now crossed over to tho other sido, ho olosed Iiis address with some vory practical suggestions to inquire after tho necessities of indigent sur vivors and that steps bo taken, if doomed necessary, to raise a perma nent relief fund by voluntary con tributions to moot their wantt?. At tho oloso of this address tho Association of survivors hold its usual business mooting, re-elected all of its old oflicers, and after dispos ing of all matters brought beforo it, adjourned to meet again at the usual timo next yenr. This mooting wns conceded hy all t,o havo boon tho largest, most plea sant and entertaining that has yet been held, and tho gonoral hope expressed that these occasions will grow moro and moro interesting from year to year as time rollh on, until tho last survivor shall have passed away, and then that their children after them will continue to perpetu ate them in memory of tho devotion and patriotism of their ancestors, and to this end a resolution was adopted making tho sons, and also tho brothers of survivors who were not old enough to have participated in the great struggle for Southern freedom, eligible to membership in the Association. I). Long- Creek Locals. LONG CKICKK, S. C., August 20. Du A it Cou ui KU: AS it has been some time since 1 have seen a local from this section, I will give you a few dots. To-day it is raining, and from pre sent indications we look for a wet spoil. Karly fodder is now about ready for pulling, and fodder appears to bo firing and baking on tho stalk worse than usual, especially upon manured lands. The corn crop will be about an average prop for this section. Potatoes and vegetables are very good, except cabbage, which owing to the bad stand which wc got in our gardens generally, will bo n light crop, though there are a few gardens that are linc. Gus C. Arve, N. I?. Shoad, Jonas and Sloan Phil lips and James G. Lee are among out best cabbage growers, and all of them have (Ino gardens. Tho npplo crop is very spotted. A luv? orchards are full, but thc ma jority have very few apples and some none ut all. J. I>. and J. E. Phillips' orchards have several hun dred bushels of as nice apples as any you see shipped from the Northern market. They have over 20 varie ties of apples growing. Have tried both the native and Northern nur sery apples and generally our native apples do tin?, best. Thc first primary is over. Our people have not taken the interest this year, it seems, in the primary as heretofore. Out of 11*0 or 130 voters in Pulaski, only 78 votes wore cast. Don't think our people take m nell to Tillman as yoi. Thc building committee bas cm ployed T. J. McKay, of Tulillah Kails, to rc-build tho Baptist Church house at Long Creek. Thc lumber and material are nearly ali to the place and will nil ho ready by time it i t needed. Thc house is to bo 80 by 50, Li feet high. The child' work man, with several hands, commenced work'the '2t)th instant, and expect to complete it by the first of October. Thc neighborhood has subscribed liberally and as many as 14 wagons in one day were engaged hauling the lumber from Capt. Parker's mill. Thc lumber was all hauled free gra tis. Wc will still have to raise $7f) Ol' $KI) to complete thc house. We have received several liberal contri butions from citizens of tho county, which has aided us greatly in secur ing our lumber and enabling ns to re-build. 1 loping success to the old and re liable K HOWICK Co PIM Kit, I will close this hurried pen scrap.

MO.IUNKIN, Secretary. .flin Congressional Election, Tlitvii District, Felitov Williams, of thu Greenville Napa, thus philosophises over tho election in tho Third District last Friday : Lot tho gleeful granger of tho Third District lift up his voice in joyful acclaim and chant merrily of his glorious victory. Murray, whoso record in tho House and Se?alo was for low sala ries and rigid economy, is downed; Benet, tho man whoso brains and onorgy did mor? than atty other unu force to establish tho farmers'col lego, is ovorthrown; Bowen, a farmer of farmers, sturdy, practical, trusted business man, who has la bored hard and successfully for Ids people, his county and his State, is slaughtered in his own county. Nor ris and tho sub-treasury aro in tho lead. Citizen Josh Ashley, that aw ful representative of an effete aris tocracy, Hie ring and the oligarchy, is slain in Anderson by horny-handed sons of toil called to tho service of their country by tho acclaims of a caucus chorus of two or three dozen patriots; over in Bickens tho free and untrammeled voice of a secret Alliance conference has been heard echoing among the mountains, and so on and so forth. How sweet and nice and snug and convenient it is to have our repre sentatives and officials chosen for us by little groups of able citizens gathered hi private confab and slic ing out the cake and handing it around among their friends ! What a deal of intellectual wear and tear and doubt it saves tho in dividual voter to have everything cut and dried and fixed for him ! What a vindication it is of tho right of the people to rule, what ntl illus tration of the high principle of self government Captain Tillman told us ho represented, what a manifesta tion of erual rights and showing for all and special privileges for none ! But it will all come straight.. Our people may submit once or twice to having their representatives and of ficials chosen for them in advance, but they will not do it always. They will begin to kick over the traces presently. They will realize that they have been ruled and fooled. They will demand a return to free, fair and open races with each niau on his merits and they will enforce thc demand. Citizen Ashley will, we hope, live to have his revenge along with a good many other citizens who, like him, have done the shouting and tho working, swallowed the ?lust, and faced the (langer and been shared out in tho divide. WHAT THU OTIIKK S1DU SAYS. [From thc Charleston World, j In thc Third Congressional Dis trict of South Carolina the result of tho lirst primaries puts Hon. D. K. Norris, of Anderson, in the lead with -1,71) I votes, ami Hon. George Johnstone, of Newberry, second, with 2,380. Tito i,S|f> votes, which were dis tributed among Messrs. Murray, Boned, Bowen and Calhoun must now bc divided between Norris and Johnstone, and it is reasonable to sup pose that Norris will obtain that pro portion of these voles which will give him the nomination. The chances, then, are that the Third Congressional District of South Carolina will be represented by tho nominee of the Alliance, and that in this Slate, we may fairly pre sume, that of tho seven Congress men, three will bu Alliaticcmon. In the three States, then, ol' North Carolina, South Carolina and Geor gia, out of the twenty-six Congress men olected, tho Alliance will bo reprt sen ted by more than half, or nt least fifteen. In Alabama thc movement is nothing like half as strong, and pro bably not more than two seats at thc most will fall to Allianeemen in that Stale, while in Kioridll, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, Tennes see and Virginia it is yet too early lo fonded! the result. If in the other Southern States t he organiza I ion is as strong as in North Carolina, South Carolina ami Georgia, fully half or more' than half of the Congressmen from the' Southern States would be Alliancc mon, but this is hardly the' case; and, allowing for thcdilTcrcncc, we should presume' that, from twenty-five' to fifty of the Congressmen returned from the Southern States to the next Congress will he Allianeemen, and, there-fore', if the movement is any thing like' as active in Ibo West as it is in the South that thc Alliance, while' it will not contre)!, will have! a for midable- band in the coming Congress and will ?1 > much towards shaping tho legislation of thal body.

To the Voters of the Third Con gressional District : I (lesivo to express my thanks to tho voters wlio lind tho manliness to vote for mo against tho combined inlluenco of certain tuon of tho DisHot Alliance ^vho assumed to roprcbont tho whola District. In their address thoy wero so engor to make it strong they deviated slightly from tim faots. Thoy said thc Bub-tronsury plan had boen uni versally endorsed by the county and sub-Alliances of tho whole country, whoo the fnots aro that ninny sub Allinnces, to my knowlodgo ns an Alliniiconum, had not endorsed the plan. Thoy- sny that boforo ondorsing Mr. Norris tho District Alliance con sidered tho position taken by onoh of thc candidntcs. Serious objec tion is made in their failuro to pledgo themselves to support Alliance demnnds, uiiintluenccd by pnrty cnu ous. They sny Mr. Norris is the only candidato who has complied with tho request and pledged him self to support thc demnnds, and tho District Alliance has unanimously endorsed him ns thoir candidato for Congress and every true Allinncomnn is urge lo give him his hearty sup port, It is known that tho County Alliance of Abbeville positively re fused to endorse Mr. Norris. Another slight mistake. From thy standpoint 1 don't think any honest Democrat could pledgo himself to support any measure, uiiin tluenccd by party caucus. Thc more thc sub-treasury plan is discussed <tho objectionable features arc so apparent that al most every man is fast becoming unqualifiedly opposed to it. 1 did not care to havo any news paper controversy during thc cam paign, but think it \yell t'> have thc facts made part of tho record. I will bo obliged if the newspapers of tho District will print this, so thrtt it may be scon by all my friends. Respectfully, li. ?. IlOVVKN. At Elizabeth, N.

They carried me on, my speed increasing, Objects Hew by me, my Hight unceasing, Through waving fields of golden grain, (Ju ito ready for tho harvest, now near hy. Through marsh and brook tho "Ray State Shoes Kept my feet both warm and dry. Through .'ordant pastures swiftly speed ing, Whore nerds of cattle wero gently feed ing, Sleek boise and hog and stately ram Were munching luxuriant grass, Through far-reaching meadow, of sweet-scented hay, In shoes of fortune ? quickly pass. Through wide fields of corn, rankly growing, My cup of joy seemed overflowing', And now t came to understand, I was on the road to wealth; Per, In "Hay State Shoes'' I lind found thc key . To the palace of tho goddess of health. Now my advice is to buy those shoos, celebrated, And your speed toward Wealth, bo ac celerated. AUS. IIANDERSKN.
