Io spite of all the phases of influences which have been brought to bear against it, the meeting, to-day, will ba large aod influential. The whites will be out ia force, and there will be a large rep? resentation of our oolored people, tnaoy of the latter coaling with an earnest purpose to hear and learn. Aod we doubt not good impressions will be made upou their minds. In DO case has a Radical meeting in Sumter been disturbed, or the speakers intetrupted by those differing from them. The most obnoxious of their speakers have, time and again, said what they pleased, and delivered most offensive and insulting speeches without molestation iu any way. We claim the same right for the Union Reform speakers to-day. There will be no disturbance, or attempt at disturbance, on the part of the Reform? ers; and, in advance, we notify the Radical leaders to this effect. We in? tend to put this matter beyond doubt. We understand the oolored militia is to be out to day ; and we have it from trust-wort hy sources, that the Captain here has ordered the men to carry so many rounds of ammunition. We can? not seo the necessity for this. No one is disposed to interfere with the right of the colored man to vote-no one, on the Reform side, expects a difficulty, or will countenance any who deport them? selves in a manner calculated to pro? duoe a disturbance. The meeting means peace and order-free speech and fair play, and nothing more ; and this it in? tends to have. gsjrju Judge Carpenter, Gen. Butler, Capt. Tupper, and Messrs. Moroso and Leo, of the Courier and News, arrived yesterday, and were properly received at the depot. Gen. Kershaw will arrive to day. B?fA. Our reader? will enjoy the in? teresting letters of our accomplished correspondent, C. H. M., published on our second and fourth pages to day. THU PLANTERS' WARBIIOVSK. Messrs. CHAS. H.

TOSH Thc sad news of this death reached our town on Sunday morning last, buy? ing occurred tho day previous, at her res ?deuce at Lynchburg. This estimable lady was well known and greatly beloved, in this immediate community, whero she resided up to tho time of her marriage with Mr. JAMES G. MCINTOSH. She was the sister of our much beloved friend and fellow citizen, D. J. WINN. Our sympathies, as well as those of a large circle of friends aro warmly extended to the nilli ct ed re? latives of the deceased lady. DOUBTFUL CHARACTER. A person, calling himself Dr. G. N. LEVISON, applied, on Monday last, to tho Master of one of our Masonic Lodges for assistance. Whilst tho necessary arrangements were being made for protection against imposition, and for extending the assistance sought, the party disappeared, making his way off on foot on the Railroad track iu the direction of Kingsville. The Wil mington Star of Aug. 24, makes un? favorable mention of a visit of the same person to that city, in the capacity of a lecturer. Our exchanges at Columbia and j Augusta would do tho Masonic Fraternity service by mentioning these facts. TBE COTTON MARKET. A letter from one of our leading merchants, now in New York, and re? ceived by us on Monday last, says : "Tell our planting friends they need not look for any advance in cotton. Were the war at once to stop, cotton would not advance. The supply is now equal tn the demand, which ha3 not beon the case fer tho past few years. I look lor steady prioes for the next thirty days, and by the middle of October, I think it will be down here to 15 els, which would make it 9 to 12 at Sumter/' Mr. Wm. E. Mikel!*, one of the most promising of tho younger members of the Charleston bar, died Tuesday morn ing, after a painful illness. No man of his age was more trusted or loved ; nor was it doubted that his ability and in? dustry would make his nature years. profitable to himself and honorable to 1 tho State. tO- Ta* (Jola mb i?

"The power of troth ?JJ thoa illustrated. "Nor is tbero any doubt now aa to tho "unanimity with which the effort for "Reform will bo prosecuted. On tho "part of the sober, intelligent and vir? tuous people of the State, there is but | 'one roice. Political prudery . and a 'certain sentimentality may iofluenoo a 'few.men to decline to enter heartily 'in the movement for Reform. But 'the great mass of tho people opposed 'to Radicalism aro taking a sensible* 'view of tho matter, and sro seoking 'by praetioal means to save the State 'for themselves and their posterity.'* SUNDAY BOllOOIi PBOOBBD1NGS.
