When I asked him about Sherman's approach, he burst into a loud laugh and slapped his leg and was so tickled that he did not calm down for two minutes. "Excuse me, stranger," he finlly said, "but whenever I think of how I fooled Gineral Sherman it tickles me all over." "Did you fool him ?" "Wall, I rather reckon." "How ?" "Wall, you see, that's my place up thar' on the rise. When the war broke out I was the most cantankerous rebel you ever saw. I swore I'd fight and font and fit till we licked the Yanks if it took a hundred years. I reckon Gineral Sherman heard of it." "Probably he did." "And after he took Atlanta he made up his mind to gobble me. He knew I'd swore to 1 on/1 )iD OAlDa All (T (lie ueiuie JL 11 3U1ICUUCI, aim Iiv vuiuv U.W..Q down from Atlanta with over 70,000 men to surround me. Mighty cute old man, that Gineral Sherman!" "Yes." "Wall, they got here one night about 10 o'clock. I reckon that nigh on to 30,000 of them surrounded my house up thar' and called fur me to come out and surrender and end the war." "And of course you did ?" "And of course I didn't! That's whar' the fun comes in. I wasn't home at all, but was down in Varginny with Lee. They entered the house and sarched and sarched, and went to the barn and called and called, and when the old woman finally told 'em I wasn't at home they was the maddest crowd you ever sot eyes on. They had hoofed it all the way from Atlanta to git their paws jon me, and had their long march for nothing! I expect Sherman was ready to bust with madness, and I reckon he won't never quite furgive me. It tickles the old woman worse than it tickles me, and you'd better come up to the bouse and hear her tell what them 70,000 Yankees said when when they got here and found me gone."?Detroit Free Prexs. The Minister Ceased to Wonder.?Aproi>os of the Egyptian trouble, we wish to relate a little story, the circumstances of which occusred during our trip to the Holy Land several years or more ago. He was a devout Christian, and had made the study of the Bible and a proper understanding of the big book the highest aim in life. When he arrived at the Sea of Galilee his heart was filled with awe, and he felt enervated and cleansed by the thought that he was gazing on the very spot where his Saviour once stood. Approaching the boatman, he addressed him 1 -?-A k ?..A IHKIo uii/1 nnm Ill Ills CI101CC31 HlHUll' (U1U njlll LIIUIS cum will mentary iti hand, awaited an answer. "Ah ! what 'smatter 'th yer ? Why don't yer talk United States ?" asked the man contemptuously. He was a real live Yankee who was picking up a living by ferrying tourists across the sea. "So this is the Sea of Galilee," devoutly murmured the searcher after knowledge. "Ya-a-s." "And this is where'our Saviour walked upou the waters ?" * Ya-a-s." "How much will you charge to take me to the exact sjiot ?" "Wa-al, you look like a clergyman, an' I wont charge you nothin." The devout one boarded the boat, and at last pointed out where the miracle is said to to have occurred. After gazing at the waters, and dividing his time between glances at his books and devout ejaculations of satisfaction, the searcher signified his willingness to return. "Charge you $20 to take you back," said the speculative Yankee. "But you said you would charge nothing." "Naw, didn't. Nothin' to bring you out. Twenty to git back." "And do you charge every body $20 to take them back?" asked the. astonished searcher. "Ya-a-s. That's about the figger." "Well, then," said the devout one, as he went down into his clothes, "no wonder our Saviour got out and walked."?New York Dispatch. A Texas Beggau.?It is very rare that you meet with a Textis beggar, but for cheek, he, or she, as the case may be, has no equal. A woman with a snuff stick in her mouth, has been prowling about Austin taking up con triDutions lor several aays past. Her demand is based on the assertion that she is a widow; and her husband was a mason". A kindhearted gentleman, whose assessment she had fixed at tifty cents, gave her a quarter, remarking: "I've only got a quarter." "Wall," said she, removing her snuff stick to expectorate, "I reckon I'll have to credit yer for the other quarter until I come in again, but I kin tell yer, as a friend, that onless yer come down to a cash basis yer never will have more than a quarter about yer clothes. Ef I didn't demand cash down, after awhile I wouln't be much better off than you is," and she let the quarter drop into her pocket among a handful of half dollars.? Texas Sifting?. Altogethek Likely.?A well-known and l>opular Nashville sporting man who went to the Louisville drill, put up his entire pile on the Porters; after that, he borrowed from every friend in Louisville, bet that, and then bet on credit. After drill was over he was standing despondently in the rotunda of one of the hotels trying to think if there was anybody left who would loan him money to come come home on, when he was approached by a gentleman in search of Owen McGloid. For for some reason he appeared siezed with the idea that Zan?we mean the Nashville manwas McGloid, and approaching said : "Excuse me. but are vou Owen McGloid V" "I don't know ; I reckon I am ; I'm owing everybody, and I expect I am owing McGloid along with the rest of them," was the despondent answer. ?Nashville American. A Candid Colored Voter.?The colored voters are beginning to understand i>olitics as well if not better than most white voters. One of the candidates for an office at the municipal election at Austin iK>t long since relied on the fidelity of an old family servant to help him out among the colored voters. The candidate was beaten. After the election he was told that the colored political friend had voted against him. lie did not believe it; but meeting him one day the ex-candidate said: "I'll give you a dollar, Jim, to tell me who you voted for." "I voted agin you, boss." "Well here is the dollar for your candor." "Look here boss, if you am gwine to pay for the candor, I mout as well own up. I voted agin you free different times. Three dollars more if you please, boss"? Texas Siftvujs. Like Mr. Beeciier.?"I often cross the street to avoid meeting a man," says Mr. Beecher, "not because I have anything against him, but simply because I do not feel like speaking to him. I suppose all men are this way." Yes. nearly all men are that way, Mr. Beecher, and we are glad you mentioned this subject, for it gives us a chance to agree with a great man. We sometimes cross a street and climb a fence to avoid meeting a man, uot because we have anything against him, but because he has something against us?a little bill, Mr. Beecher.?Ark ansas Traveler. ^J*Zeno, the Greek philosopher, believed in an iron-handed fate, but he was good Calvanist enough to round off a theological point very nicely. When his servant said in excuse, "Master, remember that I was foreordained to steal the money," lie replied, as he brought the thong down on the fellow's back, "That may be, but I was also foreordained to flog you for it, and don't you forget it."?Herald.

In other columns of this issue we publish an editorial from last week's Yorkville Enquirer in reply to our article on "The County Can- 1 vass," published in the JferuUl week before 1 last. The burden of the Enquirer's editorial is to show that its communication signed ujMany Voters" contained no threat that any man would be defeated in the primary elee- ' tiou who favored the proposed amendment to 1 the Constitution reducing the area of the counties. We spoke with a knowledge of the ! full import of our lauguage, and while it is true no such threat appears on the surface, our cotemporary ought to be willing to admit 1 that that inference is the only reasonable one that can be drawn from it. What else could the correspondent have meant by forcing upon the candidates in favor of the amendment an issue which he must have known would arouse a sectional feeling against them that would perhaps ensure their defeat, as electors in the primaries are moved more by prejudice than by reason V He certainly knew that the Democratic voters in the section of the county favoring a division of York county and desiring to make Rock Hill the seat of a new county were in the minority, and he must have known that the forcing of the issue would excite the same feeling against the legislative candidates from Eastern York which seems to have pervaded the Western side in the last Senatorial primary election, when, the Enquirer will remember, the candidate from this side of the county did not receive a single vote at some of the precintcs, all because of his known advocacy of the new county movement, and when as we are reliably informed, at one pre cinct, at least, it was said that in voting for Maj. Hart they were voting against Rock Hill. Again, we failed to appreciate the "pertinence'1 of the correspondent's question, and we regarded it, as everybody here did, in the light of the spider's invitation to the fly. The Constitutional question, as the Enquirer is forced to admit, is a matter for the people, of all paitties, to decide at the polls in the General Election next .Novemlter; it is a question with which the candidates for nomination in the primary election have nothing to do, and their position on the subject as such candidates can have no effect on the final result. Hence, we utterly fail to appreciate why the correspondent's query is a "pertinent" one. Remembering alt the circumstances by which we find ourselves surrounded in the forcing of this unfortunate issue upon us, we are willing for the public to draw their own conclusions from the communication in question, and to say whether*it does or does not contain an implied threat that the candidates favoring the proposed constitutional amendment will meet defeat in the primary election. The Enquirer claims that the "Practical and Pertinent Question" was signed by all to whom it was offered. We deny it. We have conversed with at least one gentleman from its own town who informed us that he not only refused to sign it, but denounced it as a ! movement that would deprive Eastern York of representation in the General Assembly. He took about the same view of it that we did, and we contend that is the only rational conclusion that can be drawn from it. If the new county advocates had been known to be in the majority in this county, would "Many Voters" have propounded his query, or would Mr. Grist have admitted it to his columns with his endorsement'? We pause for a reply. If the fate of the constitutional question "depends upon the vote of the people," as our cotemporary says it does, and which we heartily admit, where is the sense or the justice in making it a criterion of merit ;is to the candi dates V We submit that it is not a legitimate issue as between candidates in the primary election, and if persisted in to the extent of depriving any section of the county of its just rights, it will destroy that harmony in the Democratic ranks which is so essential to success, and the i>ersons who forced the issue must bear the responsibility. The citizens of Eastern York don't intend to be ignored and disfranchised to gratify any clique or clan. They are willing to submit to the will of the majority, fairly expressed, but wp mistake [ their temper if they will allow a few men, who are pulling the wires and hissing on the dogs of war, to oOw the seeds of discord in our midst without making a ringing protest. The Enquirer talksabout the Legislature creating the issue ! The Legislature had nothing to do with creating the selfish and unwise issue which has been forced ui>on the candidates in York county through the agency of the Yorkville Enquirer. .If it did, it created an issue for York county, alone, as we hear of it nowhere else in the State. Our cotemporary thought it.was uarroijuncc" on the part of the Gaffney Carolinian to suggest such an issue in Spartanburg, but generously informs us that its praiseworthy object in York is "the enlightenment of the voters of the county? the Rock Hill Herald included." It is well for us, perhaps, that "Nature to all tilings fixed tlie limits lit, And wisely curbed proud man's pretending wit.'" Else we might be swallowed up by our profound and sagacious cotemporary. The Enquirer seeks to make it api>ear that we are opposed to a discussion of the j measure. Xotliing that we have said will I warrant such a conclusion. We are not opl>osed to a free and full discussion of the question on its merits at the proper time and in the proper spirit. In our article hist week we did suggest that it would "be best to eliminate all suck questions entirely from our local canvass." By this we meant, and we thought we had made our position plain enough for the Enquirer to understand us, that it would be best to eliminate all irrelevant questions, such as the constitutional amendment, from our primary canvass, since the candidates chosen at the primary elections have nothing to do with the adoption of the amendment other than as electors. The Enquirer asks, "If this [the constitutional amendment] and similar questions are not to be discussed in the primary canvass, where can they be discussed?" In reply to this question we contend that it should be discussed by the people in the county and State canvass, and not in the primary canvass to foment discord and dissensions in our party ranks. We would not be understood as writing in the interest of any candidate, as that is not our purpose. We are lighting what we believe to be a false issue, thrust into the canvass perhaps with no evil intentions, but which has already aroused an immense amount of bad [ feelinc and which threatens the harmonv of l the Democratic party in this county. Heliev- i ing that it ought never to have been sprung as I an issue in our own party, we intend to tight it to the bitter end. Why the Caiibage Heads.?How many of our readers can tell us why the cabbage makes a large compact head, instead of a loose open one, like the collard V In the wild state, the parent does not head. There the process is this: The plant sends up its tlower stem ; in the spring, bears seed and dies, and the j seeds are scattered upon the ground, and almost at once the young plants begin to grow. The next year the new plants bear seed. And thus the process goes on indefinitely. Hut the process with the cultivated plant j is different. In this case the parent, after | blooming, and maturing its seed, dies, and j the seed are gathered by man, and kept till ' the late fall or perhaps the following spring i before they are planted. Thus time is lost to j the plant, and its tendency to tlower checked, I and it does not bear seed, because the natural growing of the plant (late summer and fall) is delayed too long, and the plant husbands its j resources for another season. Were the seeds planted as soon as gathered, ' the new plants would make no heads, but run j to seed the very first spring. This is why | some of our late varieties of cabbage, if plant- j ed too early in the spring, have a tenden- j cy to run to seed the very first year, as is sometimes the case. It is not until the time has i been delayed for several months, that the dis-, position to form neaus is acquired, r or mis reason, the older the cabbage seed are the bet-, ter they will head. The seed of the present ' year's growth should not be planted before |; spring; and in all cases where it is desired to plant seed in the fall, old seed should, if pos- ' sible, be procured. The seed of cabbage, turnips, mustard, kale, &c., keep good many years, !: and are generally better to plant than the new. i1 A cabbage left to mature seed should be 1 pfuned several times during the Spring. One man was asked by another with j< whom he was not on the best of terms, where i he had taken up his abode, "Oh!" he replied, j "I'm living by the canal at present. I should i be delighted if you would drop in some even- ] ing." I ?he ftate fctaoctiitg. STATE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM. full text of the constitution as amended, august 2, 1882.

The Democratic party of South Carolina, in State Convention assembled rcallirming the principles and declarations of the State platforms of 1870 and 1878, and their continued devotion to the principles of the National Democractic party, and pledging to that party their earnest co-operation and support, declare the following principles as formulating the policy of the South Carolina Democracy in State and Federal affairs, and invite the aid and support of all good citizens in carrying them into effect: 1. Wise and just legislation, the impartial administration of equal laws, economy with efficiency in every department of the State government. 2. Popular education is the bulwark of free institutions. Liberal appropriations for the l>ublic schools for the whole people. ; 1 J. The systematic efforts of the Republican party to obstruct reform and destroy good government in South Carolina by turning to partisan purposes the appointing power of the Federal government is a standing menace to the people of this State and a growing danger to good citizens in every part of the Union. The Federal oflices in this State are made political infirmaries and training schools for the defeat of honest government in South Carolina. 4. Honest home rule. The Democracy of Soiith Carolina, vepresehtihg the taxpayers of the State and a majority of the whole people, invite and have the right to expect the sympathy and support of their fellow countrymen in their strenuous efforts to preserve an intelligent and eqnal administration of the government. ?.

The extension of the franchise, as a political result of the late war, has enlarged enormously the number of present and prospective voters requiring education in the public schools. The burden was increased, while the ability of the State to bear it* was diminished. The Federal government, by liberal appropriations from the Treasury, on the basis of illiteracy, should help the Southern States to cure the evil of non-intelligent suffrage. A national danger calls for national action and national aid 7. Civil service reform, appointments to minor offices under tests that will indicate the qualifications of the applicant, promotion by merit, a fixed tenure of oflice, and no removals, except for cause. 8. Blackmailing public servants, under the guise of political assessments, converts the public treasury, to the extent of the contributions called for, into a campaign fund for the advancement of a i>plHieal party, thus taxing the whole* people for partisan purposes. 9. The present protective tariff robs the many for the benefit of the few. The duties mi imnnrts ttlinnlrl h? ileerpascd. arid an earlv repeal of the duty 011 cotton ties, 011 the machinery used in the manufacture of cotton and wool, and on tools and agricultural implements, will stimulate manufactures and be a welcome relief to the fanner and laborer. 10. It is most desirable that the internal revenue taxation be abolished, so soon as this can be accomplished without rendering permanent the existing protective system. Rigid economy in the conduct of the government will hasten the day when the tariff shall be as moderate as in the early days of the Republic and the army of office holders employed under the internal revenue laws be disbanded. 11. The public credit?National and Statemust l>e religiously maintained. 12. In the conduct of affairs in this State the Democracy have lieen actuated by but one desire, and that is to promote the greatest good of the State. Only within the Democratic party and by party action can defective legislation be remedied without imperiling the safety and well-being of the State. Democratic unity is public safety and private security. 13. In the State, justice and equality for all, to insure harmony and good will between the races ; in the Union, 110 sectionalism in policy or feeling. An indissoluble Union of indestructible States. One dag, one country, one destiny. STATE DEMOCRATIC COMMITTEE. STIRRTXO ADDRESS TO THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS. Rooms of thk 1 State Dem. Executive Committee, i Columbia, S. C., August 15, 1882. j FeUoic-r.itizen;s: The candidates nominated by the State Democratic Convention at Columbia are worthy of the supjiort of the whole people. No other political body will, or can, present to you-candidates for State offices who have equal claims to your confidence. The Democracy of South Carolina have received the nominations with unfeigned satisfaction, and are determined to elect their candidates. It will be an unmixed blessing to the State, however, if there shall be a truce to political sinie, ana nonest men, wan nuuc.it inuimsc ami without regard to their political associations in the past, unite in voting for the upright, capable and faithful candidates who are now before the people. The Democracy cannot be expected to continue to load themselves down with taxation for the benefit of their former opponents, if these persist in preferring political tramps or imported vagabonds to Carolinians of proved worth and acknowledged merit The principles declared by the State Conven* tion as formulating the objects and intentions of the Democratic party are intelligible, liberal and progressive. They look to the preservation of Ilonest Home Rule as the paramount need of good citizens of every condition in life, and they pledge to all the people the just administration of equal laws, and economy with elliciency in the conduct of the Government. In the broader arena of National affairs the South Carolina Democracy stand pledged to the reform of the tariff system, so as to lessen the burdens on the people, and to the reform of the civil service as a meansof purifying politics. When the political workers shall no longer have a hundred thousand Federal offices as a lure and bait for their hungry dependents, the power of combinations of unscrupulous politicians will usmirprilv he broken, and for every candidate within his party, there will be a fair field and no favor. The Democracy demand likewise that the Federal Government, by liberal appropriations from the treasury for educational purposes, help the Southern States to convert the present and rising generation of freed men into intelligent and responsible citizens. In all things the South Carolina Democracy . solemnly bind themselves, before their fellow-countrymen, to pursue that public policy which will make the whole people content, by securing their rights, guarding their privileges and fostering their growing prosperity. The State Executive Committee remind their Democratic fellow-citizens that, while the control of South Carolina has been won by the party, and with that control has come the intelligent administration of governmental affairs and peace in every Carolina home, the power of the Democracy can only be maintained and consolidated by eternal vigilance and untiring effort. The Democracy are not so strong that they can afford to disagree or di""1" Oicuninn nniv wnillfl hp US DPriloUS HS iii the historic campaign six years ago, when the State was wrested from the grasp of the ignorant and corrupt. Toleration there should be within the party lines. There is ample scope and verge there for the assertion of individual views and opinions. But those who abandon the party or oppose it, because the measures they prefer have not been adopted, make themselves the enemies of good government, whether they choose to masquerade as Independents or boldfy flaunt the blpck Hag of the Republican party. Political solidarity is as important as ever before, and there is less excuse than in any previous canvass for discontent and desertion. Opposition to the Democratic candidates and the Democratic platform, in this campaign, must be taken as proof of invincible ignorance, or of greed and ambition that would sacrifice the brightest hopes of the State for the gratification of personal desires. The State Committee earnestly urge their fellow-Democrats to exert themselves to the utmost to bring out a full vote, and to spare no pains to swen tne raiiKS 01 tne eoiuren i^emouracy. By well-considered laws, repeating and ballot-box stuffing are alike guarded against. The Democracy, therefore, can go into the canvass with the assurance that the strength of the opi>osition will not be increased by trickery or fraud, and with the satisfaction of knowing that, in South Carolina, there shall be, beyond dispute, a free and fair election. By personal exertion, in exhibiting and explaining to individual voters the benefits and blessings of Democratic rule, the Democracy can command the intelligent support and continuing co-operation of the colored people. To this end no labor, no jiersuasion, no argument should be spared. So will the Democracy be proud of the triumph they shall enjoy, as the lawful and legitimate result of just administration, wise nominations, liberal principles, and systematic and unflagging work. This we owe to the State, and we owe it to the traditions of the master-race to which we belong. Victory we must have ; and Honor with victory. James F. I/.la it, Chairman. G. D. Bryan, Wm. Munro, J.
