No douht the cattic exhibition at Columbia was larger and better than ours, for we must confess that iu that department we made but a poor showing, either in number or the quality of the few shown.? We must do better next year, and, like Mr. Hunter, take thein to Columbia for higher premiums.

With sincere regret wo announce the death of this pure citizen and profound scholar, which occurred at Home, (Seo., on the 27lh of last month. Mr. CauiTuigton was horn in Laurens District in this Slate, "where he spent his youth and several years of his malurcr life." flu then moved to Newberry, nn?l was elected Professor of Mathematics in (lie Lutheran College at t It at place. lie was twice married. His first wife was .Miss Mary Williams, oldest daughter of the late Col. John I). Williams, of Laurens ; his second wife was Miss Jeter, sister of the Hon. T. IL Jotcr, present Senator from this County, who, with four interesting children now iiiouru their irreparable loss in the death of a kind husband and father. Robert Carlington wne one of the purest men, in thought, word and deed, that we ever knew and although one of the brightest scholars in the country, his modesty was so great that he shrank from any public display of his intellectual abilities. It may truly ho sai 1 of him that he was modest to a fault. A good mat: has gone to hia long home. Somebody, in the Charleston Journal of Commerer, uoniiuates Hun. W. l>. Simpson for the expected vacancy on the Supreme Reach. A good nomination ? ho could not have made a better. No man in the State would confer greater honor upon that high position than the Hon. W. 1>. Simpson. Thcgreal objection to removing him from his present position,?being rx officio President of the Senate ? is that Swails, a colored member of thai body, whose skirts are not believed to be clean of the tilth and otfenses which attach to Nash and others who have considered it the better policy to resign their positions, will succeed him, and preside over the Senate. We believe Snails was elected President at the last session, but before the decision was made in favor of the Hamilton gov ernmcut. Bat for this danger, our great admiration for the high talents and pure character of Col. Simpson would long ago have induced us to press his claims toaseat upon the Supreme Bench, if a vacancy should occur. At present", however, Wright holds ou, like a cork in a Sarscrferilla bottle.

The Duty of True Democrats. i Greenville, Ocl. :5l), 1877. Kuitor Union Times :?The signs of (lie times are so plainly legible that rightly to construe them aasi^o deduce from theui the lessons they teaV|r1$e*nd a medicine only of that sense which *we call common. ,In that policy of Mr. Hayes which has raised s# many Democrats to the Seventh Heaven of i/jntcnt, ami drawn upon him from the extremists of liis pifcty so many muttered anathemas and outspoke^ threats of defiance, we can find only good intentions ; so far, it is true, exhibited in creditable and praiseworthy deeds; but having yet to meet in open (ield with a bitter partisan antagonism, to be pacified only by a greater or less concession to its demands. Already wo see Mr. Hayes, with the olive branch of peace in ouc hand held out to the South, extending the other in quasi frieudliness to Ilia very creatures whose deliberate and unrelenting animosity towards tlie Soul li made his policy of conciliation as much a necessity as it is claimed to be an evidence of good will. "Hy their fruits ye shall know them;" and no oue more than the present writer is more.ready to Tttffcord TV NrT.llayfca the full trieamfre of his'deserts. If it be found that principle laid the corner stoue of that "Southern policy" of Mr. Ilnyos which, as it is iterated and reiterated, has inaugurated a time of jubilee, to be indefinitely prolonged, then the Democracy of tho South, on all question not subversive of established Democratic tenets, can and should be found ft force to which he may not in vain appeal, but ?I}tid tlie poiut must be made here ?should Mr. Hayes lower that standard of honorable observance of constitutional law and spirit which he has invited all true patriots, regardless of party, to support ; if, in a word, he be found construing his duty to "parly" as justification for patronage of the declared and implacable enemies of bis "policy," it is no more a question what the Democracy of the South shout i do in the premises. The Southern Democracy, in B.uuh qase, must be a unit of constitutional opposition ; the "Solid South" must, whilst biding its litnc for ultimate deliverance from "Republican domination," maintain its ranks unbroken, and regard as traitors an I outlaws all who, for sel(' aggrandizement, would tamper with its declared principles. It is not to indulge in the gloomy utterances of the pessimist to assert that, front whatever cause, general demoralization, political, religious and commercial, rules the times. If all that is implied in the term organization be not, in letter us well as in spirit, rigidly maintained, avenues of approach will he left ungcrdel by which will enter iusidious influences, from at home an 1 abroad, fatally detrimental to that unity and solidity of attitude which alone can prevail to the altimutc'o. erthrow of outi constitutional aggression, and to the restoration of a Government of ? juti-ii'ii',1 oiid responsible power._ There are "powers"' now operating in this I Country, of a potency for evil unkuown to or too little appreciated by the Statesmen of pastlintes, and notably amongst ihciu is that power of wealth centered in individuals and corporations; from the malign influences of which how many of the honorably mighty have fallen, and how many of the safeguards of popular free G ivermcnt have been weakened! There is a possibility?call it, if you will, a strong probability?that this and other powers j for evil will Ijc sternly rcbukoil su l l>i?I 10 st.inil [ aside at the next 1'rcsideutiul election. It' we ' would see this probability a certainly, v.-e shall not allow oursolves to he hlindo I hy the misty ' halo i't" Mr. Ilnyes' .Southern or any other "policy, hut, whilst rendering unto t'li-sar the things that arc Caesar's, carefully see to it that wMrour lamp* kept trimmed and hurtling, we wait for the advent of such a Democrat ic victory in 1MS0 as will, facto as well as <7?' jure, consign all "policies" and all parties that cannot show on their face the broad seal of the CoiiNtitution of cur fathers, to the lumber room of j moral and political monstrosities. Briefly, our victory is before, not behind us.? ] Comment on this very palpable truth is needless. ii. i:. For the Times.
