Jlurrylmr tkroueb to the baflk yard he saw his tho end of a broken clothes line to keep tho newly washed garments from the ground. "You've got here at last, have you!" exclaimed tho wife as she caught sight of him. "Yes, I'm here?what's the matlor ?" he repeated. "Here I'vo been holding this broken line for over an hour?over a full hour, sir !" she snapped. "I was determined to die right here before I'd let theso clothes down ! ".But why didn't you call some one ?" he innocently ir<iuirod. ''There's that new family next door?tho woman would have como over in one minute."

Sealing tiie Vow.?A correspondent of the New York Commercial Advertiser, writiug from the llouud Lake camp meeting, tells the following story : Many peoplo sleep in the samo tent here, boiug separated by partitions. As young Methodist fellows arc thrown with pretty young ladies a good deal, it is nothiug against them that they sometimes fall iu love. Last night they say, this happened : A young Methodist fellow from Ballston had while a dozen of cold hearted fellows wore trying to sleep, they were continually annoyed by tho lover's spoony talk, which they distinctly heard through the cloth partition. They heard him say in a low, sweet Clarendon voice. "Now. Caroline, ilnar do Int. ni3 seal tho vow?do !" "No, .Tames, I cannot. What would my father and mother say ?" replied a sweet girlish voice. "l>ut, Caroline, you have promised to be mine?now let us seal tho vow?let us, do let us?wou'tyou??do kiss me ?" "No, .Tames, I cannot, O, I cannot? In ? momma *.!?? > tout partition parted, and a big whiskered brother, who wanted to sleep shouted, "For Heaven's sake Carrie, let Jim seal that vow. IIo'll keep us awake all night if you dou'i." Tho vow was scaled. Words Fitly Spokkn.?Those fellows who aro eternally ranting about the disloyalty of the South, would have their mauners improved by reading the following from the Washington Post: "The Southern people BHM?BPRWBPWP^^^^^roncsWxqniUlican to tell us frankly what.hc would think ofthc SouthAn people wcro they to treat their ex-soldiers with coldness or contempt? SVould not the world have reason to despise the South if it should prove ungrateful to or neglectful of the men who fought for the cause that they deemed just ?

It seems to us that they might be permitted to show their kindly feeling for their own soldiers, in their own way, so long as they obey the laws and menace 110 man's rights, without bringirur down 011 thoir heads the abuse of Northern journals or , howling demagogues."

A doctor called to sec a patient whose native laud was Ireland, and whose native drink was whiskey. Water was proscribed as tho only cure.

Headquarters State Democratic Executive Committee, [ Columbia, S. C., August 22, 1878. ) To the People of South Carolina : The State Democratic Executive Couimittco announce to their fellow-citizens that the State canvass will formally open on September 10th. Already the counties in genetnl are ready for action, and the Committee cannot doubt that the campaign will be as brilliant as brief. Throughout the canvass the Democracy of South Caroliua will have but ouo rule of conduct. The platform of 1870, adopted and reaffirmed in 1878, is the supreme law of the Den? cratic party. By it the highest and the lowest aro bound. No person, or body of persons, other than a State Convention, can change or modify its wise provisions and patriotic declarations. Within the lines of the platform the DeII1CI O 115 liu ti uo A/vuiwt aoj an k/utlt ' ?*i %j11 ifrt. No issue made in the platform and consistent with it can be ignored. The platform of the Democratic party of South Carolina is at once a history and a prophecy.? It is the record of what is past, ami the assurance of what is to coiuc. In it are declared Democratic principles and Democratic practice. The issue iu South Carolina, as made by the Democratic party, is not an issue of race. On the contrary, the objects of the Democracy, in retaining control of the State, arc to complete the reform of abuses, to punish public criminals, to maintain the purity and ability of the Government in all its branches, to lower the rate of taxation and lessen the burdens imposed upon the people, to ensure peace and concord, and, including all else, to give equal nnd complete protection to every public and private right of person and property, in order that the Government, in Hie WndH of ibo Democratic party, shall be the Government of no one section, or no one race, of no one claqs, but of the whole people of South Carolina,'without limitation or i iKlsiu lion. So far as time and npportunity have admitted, the Democratic parly has kept to the letter and in spirit every pledge or promise made in the platform of 187t?. The State officers elected two years ago arc agnin the candidates of the party. With the same platform and the same candidates holding beneficent possession of every department of the State Govfimsflnl^lifl^ BjPPSBBfiHKBBPlH^H^^Waispensable.? Unity must be had. They who slumber on in livlsc security, they who postpone preparations for the fight, they who encourage or permit dissension and division, forany reason or upon any pretext, arc as much the public enemies as the political lepers whom ucmocratic rule drives into the Penitentiary or out of tlie State. Malcontents, laggards, disorganize , shall not-pull down the Democratic party, although they may multiply its difficulties and make the struggle harder and more desperate; and, when tho battle is won, as it shall bo, the Democratic party, IW'its o'Yy'A'snktrpNfill P"** sentence upon nny who, not being with us, are against us, and mako them, for all time, political outcasts, *Je- | spised by Democrats of their own race and shun- ' ne l by t lie colored Democrats who have been ( tried and have kept the faith. For the white Democrats, the State Committee arc suAi, no other exhortation is needed. They know full well that Democratic rule is worth having, and that what is worth having is worth keeping, and will be kept. I$y the colored Democrats, as tho Stato Committee believe, the solid advantages of an enlightened and honest government arc thoroughly appreciated. They ( have seen and felt the difference let ween integrity and rascality, between lofty justice and [ artisan rule. The hope is that the colored [ cople, in larger numbers than ever before, will much beneath the folds of the Democratic ban- ' icr and so assist t lie Democracy in perpetuating lie work of Uovcriimeutal reform and industrial 'est oration. The reign of ignorance and vice in South 'arolina is past and gone. Virtue, intelligence nd elevated statesmanship shall, ns during the 0 ist two years, control tho public all'airs of South itiuiiuit. i'or iins ino people fought in 187'S, ml the sceptre then grasped for the first, tiino leigh t years by pure ami strong hands will o! belaid down and shall not bo wrested away.
