II luteAi n^jr i IU. ? I IB <*?? WHAT FAULT AO THJSY FIND WITHUA1 We have waited patiently from (he beginning of the canvass to learn what solid ground of complaint against the Democratic party the Ureenbackcrs and their Africau allies have. They talk vaguely about extravagance, and the multiplication of offices and the increase in expenditures; but they tail to show a single instance where the Democratic party has been unfaithful to its trust, or wastefni iu its use of the public revenue. As we haveshown repeatedly an enormous reduction in Iho expenditures has been effected since the Democrats came into power. The ordinary expenses of the govern_ mcnt averaged $1,11)4,DUO a year for the seven years ending in 1874-75, aud only 567,*200 a year for five Democratic years ending in 188U-81 The only expenditure which is tuuch greater under Democratic rule tha i it was in Radical times is for the interest on the buulic debt, which is notv pnid promptly and in full. In no single- instance can the Greenback-African party show extravagance or waste on the part of the Democracy, and when they nro challenged to specify the nature of their grievance they usually take refuge iu the office of the Railroad Commissioner, charging that this is an unnecessary office and of no benefit to the State. But at the present t.nte there certainly will be \cty ltitle sympathy with those who contend that the supervision of the railroads is not rietirnt le, and as a matter of fact the railroad Commissioners office cost the Slate nothing Acc r uing to law, theentiie expenses of the Railroad Commissioner, including aalnry and expenses of every kind, nre borne by the corporations owning or operating inilronds within the State. Tho apportionment of the expenses according to the gross income of the roa .s is made by the Comptroller General, and the apportionment is collected with the other taxes and put into the treasury. When we go outside the complaints of extravagance and waste, tho Grcenlmckers have no reason for grumbling except such as they can find in the Uegistration law and the Stock law. The registration of voters is in compliance with a mandate of the Constitution, and the Grccnbackers will remember perhaps that the failure of the Republicans, when in power, to provido for the registration of voters was one of tlie most serious charges that the white people brought against them. The Cons'itution requires that thcrt shall be a registrafion of voters and the registration must be beneficial. It prevents repealing. It prevents voting by minors. It compels every voter to vote in the election precinct where lie lives, so that ihcre shall he no undue crowding at nny particular poll. So is it with the multiplication of ballot-boxes. R is nothing new in litis State, and the objeet iu view is one that should meet with the approval of every good citizen. The Stock law about which so much is said, docs unquestionably press heavily upon the people in soine parts of the State, but with the Stock law, as with tho Uegistration law, the proper coui se to take is to seek for the amendment, or repeal, of the injurious legislation at the it mils of the Democratic party. it is not probable that, under tho most favot note circumstances. Ilic tirecnbnck African party will have more than a handful of Representatives in the State Legislature, an I their advocacy of any measure will not conduce to its calm and impartial consideration. They will go into the Legislature ns enemies of the white people and allies of the negroes, ami their denunciation of the Registration and Stock laws will confirm the Democracy in their support of these measures. On the other hand, if the opponcuts of the Registration law and of the Stock law remain in the Democratic party nnd vote for the Democratic candidates, t hey tnay feel sure that their petitions will be carefully considered, and that no pains will be spared to relieve the Registration law and Stock law of features winch are not indispcnsiblc to their successful action, ami which causes loss or serious inconvenience to nay considerable number of persons. The Greenback ers, ns the opponents nnd enemies of the Detncratic party and of Democratic legislation, cannot expect niuc'i favor; but, if they join with the Democrats nnd vcite against the common enemy and do their duty as Good Democrats, they will find that the Democratic Legislature, this winter, will do everything in its power to help and relieve them.?A'etr* and Courier. Thk Cavalier and the Puritan-?The publication of the new serial story, "The Cavalier and the Puritan, or Love and Loyalty," by "Pose Ashleigh," of South Carolina, will begin in The Weekly Xeics on Wednesday, November 8, and in The Sunday Xe.we on the following Sunday. This story was written expressly for The Weekly Ac km by the accomplished author, who, ns a South Carolinian, expects from the people of her own State at least as cordial a reception ns has been given Iter in the North, where her writings are well known. The first scene of the romance is in a New York Court-Rootn, where young Robert Cleinenceau is on trial for the forgery of his employer's signature. The evidence is damning; he is convicted. At the utterance of the verdict, "guilty," the young danghter of the employer ar.d prosecutor falls swooning. She is the secret girl-wife of the condemned man. Thescono changes. On the battle-ground of Trevillion's Station, a Confederate officer passing over the moonlit field, so dearly won that day, gives wa ter to n dying Federal colonel, who moans out a | last message to his unnamed wife and commits to his kindly foe a packet containing a full confession, by the real culprit, of the forgery for which this ebbing life has innocently suffered. The Cavalier anil the I'uritan is of intense interest. The plot is cunningly stretched through a maze of mystery which one seems ever to be at the end ol, and only reaches with the last chapter. The characters are numerous and striking ; there is power in their sketching and virility in their words. It is a South Carolina novel, instinct with her spirit, loving of her history, redolent of her flowers and fields. The characters arc not placed in the State as they might be placed in Maryland or Kentucky. The local coveringis vivid. About the central thrend of the story are woven the horrors of lleconstruction times. The Kuklux make their midnight rides ; the Ileform orators of 1870 speak from the hustings; the rivals fight a duel. The graphic sensationalism of the scenes is only surpassed in constructive ability by ili3 tenderness of the love passages. The Cavalier ami (he I'uritnn is a varied and strong story. It can stand on its merits and command n host of readers irrespective of its origin. One of our objects in publishing this story, as iu publishing the charming romances of John W'ithcrspoon Krvin, Hilton II. Iirooine, Mrs. Clara Dargan McKcan, Sidney Le llreton, Miss Jennie Drake and others, is to encourage native talent and to show that, iu the matter of literature at all events, a prophet is not without honoi in his own country, when that country is South Carolina Supervisors of Election. The following appointments of Democratic Supervisors of election in this County, have been made by the United States Circuit Court : Union, K. W. Tinsley ; Cross Keys, D. N. Wilburn ; Goshen Mill, I.

On Friday, Oct 20, Mr. A. D. Byers, living near Goudeysville, was struck with paralysis, while weighing cotton for Mr. A. F. Kindrick. lie became insensible that evening and continued in that condition up to the time of hisdeath, the following Monday. ?ss?

Our efficient Treasurer informs us that on the ovening of the 31st of October he received odicial instruction to extend the time for the collection Of taxes to the 10th of this mnnlli. next Friday. Up to this time 3,809 tax receipts have been issued, leaving nearly 1,300 to be paid in the next week. This can bo done if the tax payer* will coine forward promptly, but if any considerable numb.-r delay payments until the last few days, as they usually do, it will be impossible for tho Treasurer to attend to all, consequently those who have not paid when the time spires will l?M? ika paaally at UU par aaui. added to their taxes. A further extension of time uill not begiven. a #? ? lists for the old man middle, aged and young in every style, ut Cotton's. # t lug oi ttie Uoard.nnd that will be the day before the election, and we are somewhat surprised at the neglect of the Clerk of the lloard in not giving the above notice according to the law making it imperative upon him to do so which is as follows : "The annual meeting of the lloard of the County Commissioners shall be held on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, and the Clerk of the lloard shall givo notice of the time of holdiag said meeting, by inserting the same at least onco a week for four weeks previous to such meeting in any newspaper published in the County." The law further goes on to say that the notice shall require all accounts or other demands against the County to be deposited with the Clerk of the lloard on or beforo the 1st day of November. Sudden Death in Greenville. On Suudcy night last Mrs Elford, widow of Chas. J. Elford, Esq., formerly a prominent lawyer of Ureeuville, was taken sick and died very suddenly, in the lecture room of the Daptist church in that city. She had walked to the church with her sister in-law and appeared to be in her usual good health, cheerful aud plea sant; but just as she had takcu her seat in the pew aud before the service commence I, was takcu sick aud removed to the lecture room be low, where she died before tucdioai attendance could be procured. The congregation assembled, all uncouscioas o. the sad occurrence, when the Pastor arose and in a voice tremulous with emotion startled the audience with the auuouncenicnl that Mrs Elford had diod since the congregation assembled, and was then lying a corpse in the lecture rootu below. "The an nouncemcnt came like a thunder clap upon the audience nnd myny gave way to manifestation!] of grief as tlie choii^ saj^gi t"l'ake the nauie of Jesus with you" and the congregation sadly left the church." Every Democratic Vote Neededt Every democratic vote in this county must be cast nest Tuesday, for the State, Congresiunal aud County ticket. The leaders of the Greenback radical movement are working night nnd day, in the Counties with negro majorities, to bring" out and concentrate the whole radical vote upon the Greenback State ticket, to overcome the democratic vote of the upper counties, with the expectation of electing tlicit ticket in that way. In the same way they are working in other Counties of this Congressional district for the election of Dave Elkins over the tried and true democrat, Hon. John II. Erius. To prevent such a terrible disaster it will be necessary to pole a full democratic vote in every county in the State, and particularly in the upper counties. The neglect of fifty democrats to vote in Union County may elect the Greenback State ticket and give Elkins Col. Evins' seat in Congress. ? Much Sickness. Old citizens tell us there is now more sickness in this County than has been known for twenty' five years. The sickness is nearly all from chilli and lever, nr.d in some sections it very eeriouslj affects cotton pickin . In this town there art but few families, in which there are no! from one to three casses. In the past ten dayt we have seen a number of the most robusi men in the County looking but little more than mere shadows of what they were a month ago ' Every man, woman and child has a dose of quinine in hint or her and the wet ticket men tell us it is all for the want of whiskey, while others attribute it to the weather, liut whatever the cause may be? "We're a' shaking, shake, shake, shaking, i "We're a' shaking nt our houso at home. Extraordinary Weather. This is the most extraordinary Fall evet known in (his section. It is now the 2d day of November and w? have not had a frost sufficient to injure the ten derest plant or flower. One gentleman informs | us that in one field of late planted cotton the blooms are as thick as his main crop was ear ly in August. No one has put on winter cloth ing yet, and it is pleasanler on tho piazza aftei i sun-down than in the house; but the effect ol this fine weather is to cause much sickness al . | through the country, and unless we have mors seasonable wen)her pretty soon, physicians pre diet an increase of sickness.

The last rallying democratic) meeting, which was held yesterday, was not equj^l iu numbers to many such meetings held here before, but what was wantin , in numbers whs made up in the enthusiasm of those preseat. j There were but few red shift* in the proors ion, mostly from the UaioQ t&a aM^ever lailhlui Ml. Verpon Club. w A stand had been erected for the speakers in the Grove of the Female Academy, which the Ladies beautifully decorated with garlands and wreaths cf evergreens and fl wers. About 600 good democrats assembled, with a large number of Ladies, to listen to the words of truth autl wis. dom from the eloquent speakers, Hon. J. II. Evins, Senator Butler, Hon. Leroy F. Younnns and J. R. Ahney, Esq. Wo wish wosould publish tho stirring patriotic speeches delivered, but that is impossibleWe are truly sorry that every democrat in Uuion County waj not present to hear them, for we arc satisfied they would have aroused the working energies of every good and true man for the cause of home rule, honest govcrnmen1 and the supremacy of the white race. The Uniou Cornet Iland was out in full force and added to the spif^< f the meeting by the excolleut music it discoursed. Extra Meeting.

It will be observed that as there will be n< Presiditial electors or Circuit Solicitor to b< voted for at the next election, only six boxes anc six ballots will bo required. The section also, to our mind, settles the mat ter nbout voting for the constitutional amend menlsi upon which many of our contemporaries are just now so greatly exercised. It says i soparnte box shall be provided whon ever avoti is to be taken on any special question or ques tions"; so that any ballot cast it any bo: but that provided for it by law would be iuvalii and could not bo counted. Death of Mr. Nathaniel Ramsay. The Columbia Regitler of last Friday brough us the sad intelligence that this much respectei old gentleman died at His residence about si: miles from Columbia the day before, at thi advanced ago of 82 years. Mr Ramsay was a sot of David Rausay, the historian. Before the wai he was discount clerk in the Bnnk of the Slate and possessed considerable property. lie suf fered severely by the war, and during the lot ter years of his life was in straitened circum stances. Mra Vinson's Millinery., Ladies who have visited Mrs. Mary Vinson'! Millinery rooms tell us her stook of Fall am Winter Millinery is undoubtedly toe handsomest and cheapest they have even seen in thi market. To this good testimony we will add Mrs. Vinson is one of the most tasty Mil'iners in the State, as well as being a most iudustri ous and worthy Lady. Those wanting milliner; should call on her. A Badioal Ticket to be Sprang. It is suspected by many that a county ticke will be sprung upon u? at the election nex Tuesday.

The late exibition of the "Union Agricultui al and Mechanical Society" was not as succesi ful as we had n right to expect. There hi been a good deal of sicknoss in the count; the weather lias been exceedingly favorable fi harvesting die cotton crop,'the political campaig aud tho late publication of the Premium Lis may be put down as the principal factors in tl failure. There is no reason, however, for giving up < being discouraged. There are good farmers i this county who feel a deep interest in its agr cultural improvement, and cane, if they will tr; ! make the exibition a credit to the Couuty. The President, Secretary and Executive con mittee, wiH doubtless make good uso of tl experience drawn from tlii lato exhibition. 1 1 is mortifying to make the confession, bui it ' just as well to speak plainly, there iR an unai 1 Countable apathy pervading (he agricultural poj ' ulntion about taking an interest in such exhib > tions. If the prosperity of every branch < 1 business is bAsed upon agricultural progress, 1 is manifest that every thing done to give ' prominence and lead to the development of tl 1 county resoures must be pro bono publico.Every proffession is interested in it and sboul strive to tnako it a success. I In the field crop department we saw eon 1 very fine specimens of while and red wlieat1 the old red May nud the Orleans or Alaban wheat ? which had been grown successfully b two farmers for over 20 years in the count; There w^re some fine specimens of corn whit made 50 bushels to the acie, and one epeeimei , exhibited by by that enterprising farmer.
