Brother Williams, of the Green
villo News is oft on a visit and is not
holting himself responsible for the
editorial which appears in his paper
--Otherwise we would knve somue
kind word1s for~ im t.his week.
-Pic~kens Aentinel.
The News forgot to say that thme
b)rothier referred to is at home andl on1
deek and has been so thme last two
weeks. But wvhy should the supposed
absence of the individual-who is not
running for anything or needing any
personals this year--deter thme SEN
TINIl from saying anything it has to
say of the News, wh)ethler "kind
words" is intend(edl iron,ically or oth
erwise? The News is able to take
care of itelf no matter who comes
or goes."
The kind words are as follows:
"With all your keeping, keel) cool.
Let not your' editorial heart b)o troub
led, when the third District refuses
to "cut him down,".
Thie State Conviention.
Every democrat in the State is ready
to say of the Convention, "well (lone."
So far as the nominations for oflice
are concerned, this will b)e said with
manifest en thusiasm, but our entu
siasm fags-e-ntirely fades away
when we consider thme manner in which
the resolut ion i>roposed1 by Col. Orr,
was literally (ongulfed--not by straight
forward, manly, loagical argument
but by a tumnultmnous opposition. The
reobation was to so amend the con
Bti tution of the Demnocratic Party,
that hereaft'r rep)r(sentation in all it.s
"siventions, shall be based upon the
proeeding democratic vote. It was
not putt down in a manner calculated
to make it stay down. Rt must he
crushed by argument, or' it will finally
p)revail. Thore were no argumenits
to crush it, or they would have been<
employed.
Representation in all representative
bodies is apportioned according to thet
number represented. Congressmen
represent all the peopleh in the Stamts
from which they are elected; miemb ers
of the St.ate Legislature represent all
the people in the counities f comn whic.h
they are elected; Co uty democratic ,
conventions are constitun d aind called
together for the interesi of the demo0
cratic party, and the deA. t Mz are
app)ortioned to the sever.al townshis
according to the nmnbehir of (democrats
in each, as showni by thefir resp)ective
votes, But the rule of represenltationi
in the State Demnocrat.ic Convention is
anomalous. It is a bodAy which puir
ports to r'epresent the interest of the
Democrai,ic party, bu1.t mfefmbers' are
apportioned to the comntios according
to the number of people, ir'respective
~4poiticsulaith. It is unsuppored
16titgess.
Pickens Prohibition.
Thie salutary effects of prohibition.
a it is in this county are admitted
on all hands, but On the part of ti
few, there is some desire to have the
question submitted to the voters. Out
of the nine questions which our Lib
erty corrCSpOndentt thinks will be put
to the can(idates for the Senate and
House, at the Liberty meeting, four
are in regard to the whiskey ques
tion. The camlidates havo all ox
pressed themselves in favor of local
option, that is, if there should
be a division of sentiment on the
subject the question of license, or fl()
license, Rhouldl be submitted to the
p(ople. But the matter seems to be
of so little import, that it has not
been particularly (iSCUSHed. So far
as we know nothing has been said as
to the propriety, or impropriety of re
pealing the prohibitory laws
governing the towns in this county
and leaving them to local option.
This is what local option as it
now stands meanu. This will
not do for our small towns, for in a
short time, a sufficient number of ir
responsil)le non-taxpaying voters couldi
bo inlporto|to vote license. But if the
(Iuestion were sul)nitted to the coun
ty the result would makne I) change
in the present state of niairs whatov
er. Pul)c sentiment overwhelming
ly supports the law as it now stands.

A I'olitictl Feature.
There is no doubt that the nomine
for Attorney General was nominated
entirely on his character as a man and
his ability as a lawyer. For nothing
whatever can be truthfully said
against the ability of his competitor,
Attorney General Miles. He has
been faithful, competent and most,
efticient. But the Nws and C( our
ier seems to think that Charleston
was somewhat snubbed by bi4 defeat,
and thinks it ulnIaccountal)le that Iticlt
land and Orangeburg did not stick to
Charleston's man, in as Iuch as
Charleston has always supported
measures in which lichland was inter
ested, and three times helped to elect
Orangelburg'smtan to Congress. This
does not s<quare with the loctrine that
character and ability are the only
true tests, and our contemporary has
always enforced this view. It may
be possib)le that Richlaid l thinks
Charleston supported its Ieasures
because they were proper andl right;
and Orangeburg may think Mr. Dib
ble was supported for Congress, he.
cause Charleston thought lie was
the mo)~st siuitale maun. If the sup.
pmort in either caso was umponi differenit
grouinds, it shoul have bieen known,
so that ihland and Orang.eb)urg
could have known the extent of their
obligations.
On the 4th inst. the campn~aign
opened at Central with a good pros5
poet for an easy going, good hiuor
edl race. The can didates were gre(t
ed by a large crowd, and1( munch inter
est was shown in the addresses deliv
ered1 by thte canid(at es for the Gen..
eral Assembly. The sene was oren
sionally enlivened wvith music by the
Liberty Banid.
The canididautes all strike from the
shoulder, for lower salaries andu fewer
oflices, aind we see no prospect for
any dhirect issues to arise mutong
them. They stand alnost on1 the
same p)latformf. At a meeting held
before the speaking com mence'd the
following who lesomeo and1 timnelyV reso
Iluti.ons were un1)animitouisly adopted:
Whereas there is a growing desire
among the peoisple that the gover

Old lIckenM. -
The Keowco Courier, under date
of July 29th, contains the frollowing
fromn its correspondent, "Particeps,'
in regard to the re-union of the sur
vivors of the town of Old Pickens:
The annual re-union of the surviv- C
or 3 of the town of old Pickens was a
celebrated on last Thursday, the 22d (
instant. Tho day was auspicious and a
the occasion lrougllt together a few
of the surviving inhabitants of the
ancient town and (quite a number of
their descendallts and friends who
still feel and cleriih a lively interest
in the historic grounds, where onco
stood the Co trt house, town, and
public )uileings of old Pickens Dis
trict, with their surroundings, but
where now scarcely "one stone is left
u)on1 another," and almost nothing
left to mark the site of what was once
a prosperous town. The only build.
ing of any public interest that remains r
is f. e Union Church, a neat and sub- c
stantial brick building, whero towns
people were wont to meet and wor
ship. This building is still used for
Union church purposes. Upon these
sacred grounds a few of the survivors
of the old town and neigborhood have
met onco a year for a few years past,
for the purpose of spending a day in
perpetuating the memory of the old
town. On this occasion there were
presnt representatives from Pendle
> ' t .n, New Pickens, Walhalla, Seneca
City and from the neighborhood of
1 the old town, nulmbering about ser
enty-tive in all. The day was spent
o in revisiting the various spots of in
e tereist an1(d recalling pleasing ilni(dents
H and( hallowed associatiolns of the past.
o About 1 o'cloWk p. In., a royal pie inc
t wa(s sprea(d inl the Irick church, which
Owas slperahundant an0d consisted of
11 not on}'y the substantials, 1but also of
ef every deliaecy that the ingenuity of
1 Wollan has b een1 ab le to invent, and
H rich and rare enough to satisfy the
greatest Epicnrean. Thanks to the
1- ladies for their splendid dinlnner.
e About 4 o'clock' p. im., after hay
1r ing resolvedl to m(1et again inext year,
t a little later, say about the first of
s August, and extending a Iost t rdial
invitation to all survivors, tlheir de
