' Our town was troute S it aiday to one of those oi l facbioucd ucgfo gatherings so frequent- 1 ~ ly seen and heard tu the memorable years j Radical riot In this Stale. j The County Convention met in thcCourt House and was called to order by lis*' County chairman j Jim Dopa.?s, when June Mob'oy harangue'l the 1 assembled solans. Members attempted to speak, but the Chairman lit his cigar, turned iiis back j upon tliein and said "l il be 1 ?d if I hear you." I This brought out the full lung force of the con- j vent ion aud a perfect babel of voictls aemmenced j " to shout, "Mr. Chert man !' "Mr. Chcennau !" : We never heard u more boisterous and disgrace- 1 i, ful meeting. At length a little order was ob- j fiiilio.l nml Mttlilitv'o r?i?? .a ts.l .Jrttxl for delegates to the State Convention was proposed , ' ami, not withstanding it would have puzzled a : 0 Philadelphia Lawyer to say how the vote stood, ' the chair announced that June Moblcy, Jim Repaux and Charley Wade were declared elected, y At this about one hn'f the Couvsqtion rose to (i their feet and such shouting and linguagois 1 rarely heard iu a street riot. So disgraceful was the conduct that the Sheriff had to go into the Court House and quell the riot and take posses1 sion of the room. Thus ended what Mobley c calls the Republican County Couvcutiou of Union | TtiK bl.yCl.t. Noi satisfied with the proceedings an l results ' of the Mobicy-liepuux meeting, a large number i of the more respectable and intelligent colored I I men of the County held a Convention ou Tues- j (. day to protest against the action of tiie so-called convention, and to elect another act of delcaauis to trie state Convention. The Couvculiou was organized by the election d of Tinsley Clark, Chairman and J. J. Kinard <1 Secretary. e A motioti was made and carried unanimously Is that a petition be forwarded to the State Kxccut tive Committee asking that a more competent and acceptable County Chairman he appointed. The following delegates were elected to reprc0 sent the Convention iu the State, Congressional 8 and Judicial Conventions: J. J. Kinard, IV (}. c Cannon and (?. C. Tucker. '' This was one of the most orderly meetings of colored people that ever assembled in this town, c ... .. . ... ... notwithstanding the irrepressible mischief milker, Jiin Depaux xvus there and ma le several ^ attempts to break it up. The speeches were sens.. iblc and model ate in language, and the great,1 est decorum marked the proceedings throughout, L until Ocpaux called the Secretary a d?d liar, u when rather than disgrace tlieinaelves by a difliculty with such a fellow, the meeting quietly e adjourned. - a Sudden Death of Mrs. W R. Briggs. n Our community was startled on Friday morning last by the announcement that Mrs. briggs, wife of (.'apt. W. 11. briggs, died very suddenly, 0 about 11 o'clock the night previous. Mrs briggs retired in apparently as good health and 11 spirits sis she had ever enjoyed, hut about 10 ^ o'clock she awoke her husband and complained n of nut f?:cli??yc well. She got tip and moved ' about the room a few minutes. Feeling better she returned to bed. but soon after told her bus" bnnd that she felt very strangely, and threw one u ! mm across him. He lifted the arm and found 11 i it powerless, lie then called for water to bathe her face, but upon applying it lie found that life was extinct. The doctor pronounced it a case j of apoplexy. j Mrs. liriggs was a woman of rare energy, and I' ' in every good work in the ncighhorhot d she i wns the lending spirit. As a member of the ' Methodist chinch she adorned the christian | profession by a consisiant life of humility and "j 1 Godly fear. ! >'he leaves a devoted husband and children v !

Of the composition of the convention, the AV/r* says: It is a noticeable fact that of the white delegates I in attendance, many of them have been "apos| ties of grceubuckistn" for the hist threo months, ! and that in reality a fusion of the two parties has taken place. If any one wishes further proof that Grccnbackism and Radicalism arc only parts and parcels of the same corrupt party, we don't know where they can tiad it. We endorse fully the following forcibly ex pressed sentiments upon this subject, which wc cut froiu an able editorial in the AV?w : Any man who thinks at all must know that li.O J.ww.lwl Ito.linnl C? ..I. ?' 1: | ......... v 111 uniiii ; wouKl make the first to lie remembered as pleast ant ami peaceful by comparison. It would l>c I ibe pleasure and policy of the negroes and white J men who compose the party, to grind down the white people of the State, crush the last spark of hope or spirit from their hearts and visit upon us the accumulated malice of the last years. Vet wiiite uicu?South Carolinians?join in to bring those consequences upon us. 'Ihe men who compose the (Srcenback wing of lladicalistn are deliberately planning the murder of the State and the everlasting ruin of her people.? Scorn for the miserable associations upon which they have entered, ami bitter hatred for the t. rong they plot against us, arc the feelings with which all respectable citizens must regard those miserable creatures. Let them never lie forgotton ! Let the undisturbed peace that will ensue Irotn their defeat not move us to charitably condoning their fault. Lack of success in execution does not lessen the guilt of carefully designed crime. The men who aid Radicalism , I now should he handed down for the execration of j generations to couie. Bloodthirsty Speeohos A correspondent of the Columbia lteyialer, writing from Newberry, gives an account of the Radical Convention held there last Tuesday, and further says : Frank Mix, a delegate, ntale a very inflammatory speech at a barbecue last week, saying that if the white people di I not give tliein whatever wages they asked, they would force them to it cr tltey would kill and cat their hogs, cows, horses, sheep, ami everything they had in the way of cattle, "and then we'll begin on tlicir j babies in t heir cradles and eat them." [A voice in the crowd : "Yes, 1 feel like I could oat a baby now."] "Then we'll kill their women j ami eat them, ami, lastly, we'll kill their men, 1 I we will exterminate them and inherit their lands, i ] I or have our price.

We arc becoming a philosophical demonstrative people, but occasionaly we meet with natural phenomena that we cannot solve, and, of course call on you nnd the correspondents of the Tunes to help us out of the dilemma. My narrative is a short one, summed up in haste, as follows : A few days since a renowned and highly respected farmer, known iu this section for truth tnd veracity, took a stroll through hi.s farm to o-jk at his cotton. When lie left home he i wore by I lie holy poker lie did not have a cent >f money about his person. \\ hen he had gone hroiigh his cotton field lie ran his hand into his >ockct for a chew of tohacconnd pulled out what ic thought to he some leaves of the weed, but up in examining the wad lie found it was not tobacco it all, hut a veritable genuine Greenback f>v? 1 liar l-ill.

We had (he pleasure of meeting to-day Mr. i Carson, salesman of the Southern Calcnlar ( lock Company, whose district headquarters 'or Western South Carolina are now at Grccn?ille This is a Southern enterprise, in Iho lands of Southern men, hut they tlo not ask patronage on this account. All they ask is that >nch and every oi.e examine the clocks for him:elf. The Company sell their clocks exclusively from wagons, therefore avail yourself of he opportunity o?' seeing it when the salesmen call on you.

"Power ia Always Stealing from the Many to the low" The Cotton Brokers associations, Commercials^ TniTellora and newspapers arc busy during the hot days of August in speculaAoy upon: the next cotton crop, all of which speculations are very much like those of (he pretty milk maid who counted her chickens before they were hatched. These speculations, neverthel.ss. are not void of interest. They are not mere air castles, built for the amuietnont of enthusiasts, but are M^snde^.to havejin,inttuence upon the ma/- ^ ket and to put the points in the possession of the X.

The money changers of Wall Street Control not ouly the cotton market but every other mar* ket, when it becomes their interest to do so. A CJinbiuHtion can be ctfected in a few days so compact in its organization, so secret in its operatic ns and so swift in its execution, as to sweep away all opposition. The money power with its net work of National Hanks all over the land, its syndicates, its Railroad Magnates andTelcgraphic facilities, holds in its hands the destiny of the republic. The proclivity of the times seems to be to run into combinations where the influence of capital can be most successfully displayed.^, l'owcr is always dangerous, when it can be^^B secretly and wisely used. Much of the legisla lion of the day is in the interest of the money power. Legislative tactics have become so adroit and efficient that it is no easy matter to divine what will be done or what is the object There is always a "wheel within a wheel," a "power behinJ the throne," which regulates the movements. This Sand lots Hoodlum, working men's party element, which we so see ovcry now and then cropping out in large cities, is not confined , to cities ; it may be found everywhere. It is the .. .? volcnuo which underlies all societies, the same trouble that has invaded the world's peace since the terms rich and poor have become words of meaning. It is just now the "bet?noir" for our statesmen. Statesmen ! alas ! where arc we to look for statesmen in these days of political trickery and humbuggcry? 1'. Q. R. For the Times. The Shot-Gun Tournament at Spartanburg. ^ Mr. Ki.itoii:?Tho shot-gun Tournament has . ended, but we cannot let it pass in perfect silence , nor allow it to be numbered with the things that "were" without a word of thanks and commcn dalion so justly due to the Spartanburg Team and the citizens of that enterprising town.? That the Tournament was a grand success is tiie opinion of the visiting teams and every spectator All things were propitious for the occasion?tho place, the time, the teams. The sport commenced ou Thursday the 2(ilh ami continued until Tuesday 31st instant, yet such was the zeal displayed by the contestants, and so great the enthusiasm manifested by the spectators that the interest in the Tournament did not grow less but rather increase I unto its close. Tho Spartanburg Team cannot be too highly complimented for the success of tho first Shot-Gun Tournament In Upper South Carolina. A tnoro suitable ground for the sport could not have been selected. Nothing that was necessary to the success of the sport was left undone. The visiting teams were snugly quartered in their respective booths, with every convenience at hand, while the comfort and case of (lie spectators were not forgotten and good order was maintained throughout. The tournament was onductel in a fair and . .. wt??tv?t I*ia%? ?f liliu lb nua TCI J CAUIl* ing to a mere looker on to see the interest manifested by the captains and members for Ilie success of their respective teams, nothing occurred to mar the pleasure of even the mast sensitive. The members of the Spartanburg (li.n t'iub did all in their power to increase the pleasure am' make more full the joy of their "rivals in arms" and succeeded in so doing splendidly.? livery one felt that if he himself was not a member of a team, he was nevertheless the next friend to a member, and an ardent advocate of the cause of Snot-CSun Tournaments. To the Spartans at iargo, wc arc glad to say, they were pleasant days spent in their midst, and (hat wc highly appreciate the liberal aid and hearty support tlicy gave to the shot-gun Tournament at Spartanburg.
