THE REPUBLICAN ST A i ? CONVENTION. , Wc lako 'lie following from the reported pro- 1 ceedings of the Republican State Convention hchl in Columbia on the ldtli niul Nth iust. It ehows the weakness of the party and its wil- t < lingncss to amalgamate with any other party ; organised to defeat the prevent white govern luciit of South Carolina, and proposes to make , Col. Cash their leader to cany the Slate by tiie shot-gun system. On the first day the following resolution was adopted: lirxolceif. That this Convent ion endorse the nominees of the Stale ticket of the Independent < Greenback Labor Reform party. A substitute was ollered : That ncommittee I of seven be appointed on the part of this Con- : volition to confer with a similar committee on the part of the Independent party of the State i on the nominations which they have made and , < uinvr 111.111 vi s \> me n milj twine ii |> i That nocords with the suggestion of the \\ liitc letter. | SmaMs said : The tlreenhael; ticket h i I been | . spoken of as very weak, bill it was as strung as | couhl be expect el from such poor materia!. It was certain that we couhl not elect a single in in oil a State ticket, ami, in the name of tiod, let rs lake the tlreenbaek ticket an 1 help them to elect it. A ilelcgate from Vork sa'nl. lie " was unwilling, liowcver, to lake th mi upon their empty piom ise to do belter for us than the Pemoerals. We had been caught with that sort of chall before, ami now wo must have some substantial assurance that they will share the I'oiinty ullices ami Legislature with us in consideration for our support of their Slate ticket. Miller of Rcaiifurt, chargeil that the revenue tlepattmeiit was running the Convention ; that Lrayton had imputed men Irom other States an 1 appointed iliein to ollice, to t lie exclusion of good men, while ami hlack, only that lie might I nek the Convention with them and outvote /tniirii Republicans.

We will certainly do so at the ballot box. Our crop prospects now are very fair. Cotton is not opening as fast as it did last year. We have just commenced picking and last year by j this time we were nearly half done. The farmers arc beginning to sow oats and I think the acreage of small grain that will be, put in this year will exceed that of last, which is certainly a move in the right direction. We are gettin ? awfully tired of having our, " I c ?rii cribs and smoke houses so far away ; our j cribs and smoke-houses arc in Chicago, C.nc:n- I tinti, St. I.ouis, etc., and it is awful expensive ( to get a piece <>f in out or a bushel of corn.
