Grand Rally at Easley Station. Thero is to be a grand rally at Eass Joy Station, on Friday the 3d inst., t.o-morrow. Every body, and the balanco of mankind, are ins ited to be prl'SCJnt. The noble women of Pickens can dJO much tow'ards the success cf our cause on jTuesday next.. Lect them urge their fathers, h usbhands, sons, andl( brothers to go to the polls and cast their votes for Tildlen and Hlampton. One Ticket. Attorney General Stone has decided that there shall be but one ticket.- ] Tenames of the candidates for Pro-." siden tial .Electors, and for Congress and StaLto and Coun ty officers and for or against theo Constitutional Amend mont, will bo on ono and the same ticket. Upon the Constitutio,nal Amendment, regulating tho school tax and its distribution, the Demo, cratic party vote, Yes. Young ladies, we mean those not married, if your sweetheart fail to go to the p08ofll onpTesday next, L.nd vote for Tilden and IIampton, "kick" him the first opportunity you get, for we will assure you ho wvill not make4 a good husband. Each Club in the Connty should appoint committees to soo that every Democrat goes to the polls and vote. Democrats of Pickens County, re-. member that upon your efforts next TaeBday depends tho success of the cause of honesty, reform and home rple. Let every one do his w~holo Rolitios are the only busi ness follow. ed in Ahe State at present. COolored Democrats in Columbia bog fm ,ore troops, as they are en cour aged and protected by tho soldiers. Send them along. . He Lies. Tho correspondont of the Unions Heriild,'represents that tbo Radioal poWVo'w at this plaeo was broken iip by bgnds of m9unted rifle clubs. This is a fiale as the party repre4entod by tho-nion,Heruld, is venal t d tor, I'upt. 1le says the riflo clubs gallop ped up and deninded a division of Lime. This is lie No. 2, for the "divi. .ion of time" was demanded before tho arrival of the speakers, .as the published correspondenco between the L4ijIaor.of Lhis paper and the Chairman of' the Republican party in the County will show. Tihe same cQrrospondent came into our office, in company With the gentleman who bore the noto re, fusing a division of time, and ho took part, in the eonversation which follow ed about it. So ho lied knowingly. ie says the riflo clubs were armed with pi,tols. This is lie No. 3. Thorm wore no tirmed men, besides, there 'are no rifle clubs in the County. The mounted men were members only of Democratic clubs. 1o simply lies from the beginning to th end of his Com1municat.on. But it %ill hurt no body. The colored people are coming over to us by the thousands, and Hampton will beat Clhmberlain by t.he colored voto alone if' we all do our duty. Let every colored man in this County be visited by some influential Democrat before tho election, and explain to ihem the importance of voting for Hlampton. Their only fears are that f Hampton is elected some of their )olitical rigirlts will be taken fromn them. Their rights are as firmly fixed is the whito man's, and all you have o do is to convince them of' this fact. Phen they will votO for Mampton witLhout liesitation. There are soeic men in this County vho have voluntarily disfranchised hemselves, for they have not voted in the war. We u n1derstanl that ;ojno of them say they do not int end to b'ote in thuis election. Theli Repuiblicarns Jlaim all such voters, but we believe Lhey are good Democrats, and wi I v'oto the D)emocr'atic ticket if' they turn ut. Theoy should go to the polls and vote and save thcmselves from beinig claised with the IRepublicans. The11 lyinrg proclunation of our M as sachusett.s Governor, made the tro~ops believ'e that they would have to fight as soon as they cr'osscd the linre of this State, and accordingly, am muni Lion was issued to the m. IBut wi hen they arm i ved , they founnd every thrinmg SO quiet and peaceable that they aoulId hardly r'ealize that they were in Southr Car'olina. Theliy, ho wever, saw hr'ough the trick, and lot, thei r im, wrecations fall fast and1( thick upv n the ~onspir'ators against thre liberties of south Carolina. Thley wvill not be vorth much to the Radical party. In five more days the question of onstitutional liber'ty or centralizea lespoptismi will be settled. 1t theo Jomocrats succeed, of which there is carcely any doubt, the constitutional 'ight.s of every class and cendition of itizens will be respected and protected; mut if the Repubiicans succeed, at east four more years of misrule and ppr'ession will follow. No intelligent lan, it seems to us, can hesitate for a noment to east his vote for the entire )emocratic ticket, National State anid :oun ty. Every Demnocr'at in Pickens County ihould, if' possible, be at the polls 'hren they are opened on Tuesday norn inig, and remain there until they rc closed. Let every man in Pickon.s County v ho vazlutes life, liberty and prioper'ty, o to the polls on T1uesday next and 'oto foi- Tilden and IIamp)ton. The Radicals broke up the Demo rarie meeting at. Beaufort, last wveek fter General Hammton had spoke. 'ol. Yo< mans and J udge Cooke tried o0 speak, but were howled dlown. Gon. Iampton then informed the colored rOn dies that six offieers of the United States fleet was p)resent, in citizonas ulothes, and( had witnressedl their con clorct. This fell like a bombshell a mongst them. Marion Republicans d n't onthuse wo'r a copper. Call out the r'itT-rafl Daniel and mnako 'em enthuse. A colored Democratic blacksmith in Marion has a HIamp)ton hammne, for the head of any Radical intimnida,. The Register remarks that all the army is in the field, and thre boys are wondering whore in the devil the in mergentsanre? Duties of Supervisors. In .speakiqg of the duties of super, vsor0, the 14ews and Co;riar says: One o,fhe Federal Superiisors of leet! at each voting precinct, will be a )emock, the law requiring that the tYa. tipRjervisors at each precinot shall be of "different political parties." T.ae Ptupervisors are apthqrized ,and i'quired "to challenge any vote oftered by any person whose legal qualifica Lions teither of them may doubt,;" to be and remhin where the ballot boxes are kept, at all Uimes after the pollo are open, until every votebeas has been counted, the canvass of all votes polled be wholly completed, and the proper and requisite certificates or returns be made, and "to personally inspect and scrutinize, from timo to time, and i at all times, on tho day of election, the manner in which the voting is done. They are required to personally Ecrutinize, count and can - vass each ballot cast in their voting precinct, may tako and occupy such position as will bost, -onablo them to see eauh person offering to vote, and at the closing of' the polla aro required to placo themselves in such position as will enable them to fully perform their duties in respect to tho work of canvassing the ballots. Supervisors. 'I he following are the Democratic Supervisors of the election at each voting procinct in Pickens County: Easley, 0. S. Bolt; Liberty, Job F. Smith; Central, F. V. Clayton; Uur rican, J. J. Herd; Pickens C. 11., Q. V. Taylor; Dacusville, B. F. Morgan; Pumpkintown, J. D). Ml. Keith; Eas , a tatoo, Jacob Lewis; inklo's, Silas Ilinkle. rbo following gentlemen have been appointed by recommendation of the Republican party: Eisley, A. M. Mauldin; Liberty, Thos. Parkins; Contral, IR. W. Folger; 1urrican Thoinas Stewart; Pickens8 C. V., W. E. Welborn; Dacusville, fReddin IRack ey; Pumpkintown, J. B. Hester; Estatoo, II. J.Lewis; Hinkle's TI. N. M%cKinnnev. Chambci lain says Elliott is the most corruptL man in the ~Rdical party. Elliott says Clhaimbem lain is a scoun drel and lho holds evidence in his possesioni to convict him of felony. Duiinni was the leader against Carrdozo wyhen the Legislaturo undertook toc remlov e him o frmom the reasu rersh ip, andl said he wasI a consumated scoan, drel. Cardozo says Danun is as cor' r'upt and mean ats he can be, &c., &c. These aro'the favorite candidates on the Raidical ticket for the principal officer in the State. They know each other wvell and we believe they all tell the truth. Can .any .honest man vote for theom? Accr'ding to the last census there are 74,160 wvhito voters in the State. IIamplton will receive at least 70,000 of that number, and will be elected by twenty or twenty five thousand ma j ority. The11 despoerate game of' Grant and Chamberlain to carry this State for the Republican party b)y beyonets, is dlemoralizing the party in the North ern States, which in.sures the election of Tilden and Hendricks. Is there a prIecinict in the County which cain give a sclid Democratic vote on Tuesday next? We think there are two or three, and will anx, iously awvait the returns to see. If any voting p)rec'net in the County gives a~ solidl Demnocratic vote on Tuesday next, wve shall move, that the other pr'ecinets in the County get up f'inds and prIesent a suitable medal to such precinct. The Republicans aroe claiming those who do niot propose to vote on Tues (ay next. Let them turn out in order to save themselves from being classed with the Republicans. All the mer'chants of Charleston have agreed to close up) on Tuesday next and devoto the day to the cause of Uanpton, Reformff and Home Rule Let the merchants (of Pickons do like, wise. There are seventy two colored De mocratic clubs in Barnwell county. The county is set down as safe for one thousand Democratic majority. The Press and Banner says that Abbeville county is good for One thousand Democratic majority. Dunn said Chamborlain was a thuief; Chamberlain returned tho corn pliment; and now, t.hey both admiro Did Chaberlain raise his voi e in danunoiation ' the Civinhoy thas cre? Not a b1t 4f it; but he set h4.to and the instigatoO f the :4, U4 0. Bow en, to cover it and eeq e kuilty wretches ah ni uh as asi After Hampton is'eleoted t ere wii bo , no more Cainhoy affairs.
