R. LOMBARD HO. FOUNDRY, i Machine and Boiler Works. ^iie- Political Outlook in Vir ginia.. Ou AVedhesday last, the Denio- eraUc RtAtc Convention of Virginia, met at RiChhiond and nominated on the first-ballot Gen. Fitz Hugh I^ee for Governor. Capt. Philip W. Mc- Kertney, of Prince Edwards County, was his most formidable competitor and ‘received a handsome vote, but opon motiop of Mr. Fitzgerald one of his proruineut supporters the vote was made unanimous for Gen. Lee. The nomination Is probable the strongest that could have been made, but it will take untiring intelligent work to defeat tlie Mahone Republican readjuster •combitiation. John S. Wise the Re publican candidate is a son of the late Henry A-. Wise, and although a very emtio individual, is personally popu lar, jUst in tlie prime of life and a splendid stump speaker. The Dem- ooruts 'carried tlie .State by only six thousand votes for Cleveland which <is ho big thing for a State like Virginia. Mr. Cleveland's retnarka- blc policy in regard to the distribution ‘of offices lias done nothing whatever Ho strengthen the Democracy of that •State. On the contrary we have rea son to believe that Mahone possesses a powerful influence caused by the fact that his satelites hold at least two thirds of the Fed eral offleed of the State. The Collectorship of Customs at Rich mond, Petersburg, Alexandria and Yorktown, tlie United States Post-of fice at Petersburg, Farmville and other important places, besides numerous County Post-offices are all in the hands of our political enemies, and Mahone and Wise are the very men to utilize to the fullest extent the great advantage which this influence gives. Besides this it is stated that Mahone and Wise will not want for tlie sinews of war id cat money. The re tention of offensive partisans, notably in the case of the Collector of Customs at Yorktown, a most odious partisan, has been very discouraging to the citizens of a closely contested State like Virginia, and if tlie Democracy sustain defeat in the coming election much blame can with perfect proprie ty be laid at the door of Mr. Cleve land, who seems to pay far more at- j»ap/.ra cji the New York Jdfiigwainp influence than to the reasonable requests of the mem bers of his own party. The situation is critical demanding leadership characterized by calm, thoughtful, fearless and invincible determination. The campaign prom ises to he exceedingly interesting, and will no doubt be productive of many exciting episodes. General Grant’s Funeral. The funeral obsequies of General Grant M’ill take place next Saturday, and will be conducted with more jxmip and pageantry than probably has ever been witnessed at the funeral of any distinguished person this coun try lias ever produced, How far this ostentations sorrow conforms to ideas of Republican simplicity and a nice sense of propriety are matters for each one to determine for himself. The body will be Interred at Riverside Park, which is simply an extension of the great pleasure ground of New York City, known as Central Park, It appears to some people both North and South, that a-more inappropriate spot for a funeral and a grave could hardly have been selected. But, as it is no funeral of ours, the South has no objections to offer. It is rumored tiiat Col. J. P. Thomas will resign, and that the Supcriutcn- deney of the Citadel Academy, will be tendered to Gov. Hugh S. Thomp son, who it is believed will accept. We hope the rumor will turn out solid truth. Governor Thompson pos sesses not only the scholarly requis ites for the position buta vast amount of hard common sense backed by rare executive ability, that willjcnsure a career of prosperity for this institu tion that has never before been at taiued. We are not an enthusiastic admirer of this class of institutions and would prefer to see the same money spent on the .South Carolina College that is given to the Citadel; but if the institution is to be kept open we desire to see it flourish and be come a credit to the State. Under the present management the machin ery seems to be conlinunUy getting out of order- The Orangeburg correspondent of tlie News and Courier of yesterday says, the people of tlie town are re joicing over tlie removal pf Rev. Noah Webster, who for nmuy years has discharged the duties .pf postmas ter by proxy, to the great .annoyance of the good people of Orangeburg. This correspondent says that this man Webster, ‘from the time he sat foot on wur soil lias been the worst and liilterest/oe of the white people.” It takes Mr. Cleveland a loug time to see these things, but after awhile, we sup pose, his broom will reach .all around wad others will be removed* who now pocket government money which .they do not earn. The Daily Record is the name of tlie new evening paper which takes the place of the Columbia Yeoman. It is edited by Mr. H. N. Emiyn, who has been connected with Journalism fur many years. We have placed it ou our exchange list, and extend to it our best wishes for a prosperous career. - Sir Moses Montefiore, the great phiftmthropist, died at his home in Ramsgate near London, at 4.30 o'clock Tuesday afternon. He was born Octo ber 24th, 1784. ing plank of the platform, which is precisely* wluit the Legislature of (Jcorgia has ju-t incorporated into tlie statute law of that Statejaml is pre cisely what the Prohibition Democra cy of this State demand, and are de termined shall become law in South Carolina. The following is the plank: •“Reaffirming the traditional oppo sition of the Democratic party to all sumptuary laws, or laws unduly* in terfering with individual liberty, we recommend the General Assembly to pass such laws us will permit each county or district, at special elections held , for that purpose, under proper regulations, to decide for itself wheth er the sale of spirituous liquors shall be legally permitted within its limits.” Tliis prating alujut sumptuary laws is innocent and harmless. We have before shown in these columns whav sumptuary laws really are, and it is a fact beyond dispute, that the average politician knows as much of the ac tual significance and force of a sump tuary law as a blind mule docs uIkuiI Sunday. If not instructing, it is at least amusing to hear them discuss it occasionally. The beauty, however, of this plank iu tlie Virginia platform is, that while it begins with buncombe it ends all right, by echoing the true sentiments of the property and intelligence of the great Democratic party of Virgin ia. If it did not, it never could have been adopted. Tlie provision is found ed in a reasonable regard forjustice and common sense, by permitting each county to decide for itself, whether it shall continue legally to permit the poisoning of its citizens by the sale of spirituous liquors. Tuis is all that Southern Prohibitionits contend for. Those who have tlie Temperance cause really* at heart, do not ask for a sweeping prohibition bill, covering by one single act, a whole State. Tlie de sire is to proceed county by county, so that public sentiment may always ac company tlie passage of a prohibiton law; the citizens of each county being supposed to be the best posible judges of the wants of their respective com munities. We commend the recent action of the Georgia Legislature, and still more recent action of the Vir ginia Democratic State Convention, to the careful consideration and thoughtful study of our Rep resentatives in the Stale Legislature. In this connection, we desire to give just a few words of caution to those holding legislative positions in South Carolijjft, and it is simply this. Act ' reasohaolyTrf*tfiia mu tT^rjlTcmf tVriW-idv the advancement of tl£‘ Temperance cause with tlie same respect and sound discretion that you would any other measure submitted to your cou- sideration. Draw largely upon your common sense for guidance, leaving fine spun theories woven of incongru ous fabrics severely alone. Don’t utter the stereotyped phrase of tlie liquor- seller, “ that prohibition don’t pro hibit,” more than a dozen times in any one speech that you may* make, otherwise you may subject yourself to the ridicule of plain common sense people, who will naturally be curious to know why such a desperate fight is made by tlie liquor men if “prohibi tion don't prohibit." Above all things don’t get scared and buckle and truc kle to tiie imperious behests of the liquor-sellers with- such alacrity ns to expose yourselves to the suspicion that you are not free agents, and that you had better be at home iu respecta hie retirement. By an observance of these simple rules much good may re suit, and reasonable and moderate measures inky be passed, which will win the approval of a large majority of your coustitueucy and materially advance the best interests of society. A contrary course may bring to the front extreme men who will stop at untiling less than a bill providiug ab solute prohibition for the whole State. We charge nothing for this advice, but nevertheless, it had better be heeded for wo mean what we say, because we know whereof we speak. There is no use to meet the impreg nable arguments of Temperance men by assuming an air of offensive digni ty and calling all prohibitionits fanat ics, demagogues and extremists; that time has passed and those who play that role, simply array themselves against the best elements of sopjety, and brand themseves with the trade mark "intolerant biyot." Thpy are like the fine ffcntlcman who, when told that his coat tail was on (ire was too dignified to admit tlie fact and recognize the situation, until the stern logic of the flames left him in verv undignified plight. In conclusion, we would mildly re mark, that tlie Prohibition Democra cy of South Carolina intend to hold the fort, and demand that their rea sonable requests shall be treated with the same respect and consideration that has been shown the Temperance question, both in Georgia and Vir ginia by the great Democratic party, the yreat party which represents as no otherjHirty can, the best thouyht of the projnrty and intelligence of the South. The time for parleying lias passed. In the future, nothjpg will be accep ted, but substantial intelligent action in behalf of “God, Home and Native Land.” Of those who spurn our cause with contempt \yte ask no quarter uud they shall certainly have none. Mb. Tillman Watson, one of the alderman of tU,«city of Columbia, has been requested by the Democratic Club of Ward 4 to resign. It is inti mated that if be fails to comply, the aldermen will expell him from their Board. He is a married man, with a family of children, and on Thursday last publicly engaged in a disgraceful horsewhipiug affair with a negro by the name of George tshrewsberry, with whom he quarrelled for visiting a colored woman whom he (Watson) was in the habit of visiting. Tlie affair has created considerable excite ment. native State. While the exhibit is almost perfect iu every department, it is proposed to still further increase its attractions by making many addi tion-, especially is this the case in re gard to the Women’s Department. We deem it only necessary to mention this fact for tlie noble daughters of our Htale to rally to the rescue and make such contributions of their handi work, as will reflect credit upon them selves and tiieir State. Tlie exhibit will form tlie basis of the Industrial Exhibition of the Agricultural Society of South Carolina, which honored organization will cele brate its Centennial Anniversary on the 23rd of November next. The ex hibition will be conducted under the supervision of Hon. A. P. Butler, who has been appointed Commissioner General together with the following Commissioners at large, viz. Gov. Hugh S. Thompson, Hon.J. N. Lip scomb, Master of State Grange, Hon. D. P. Duncan, President State Agri cultural Society, Hon. A. S. J. Perry and Hou. W. D. Johnsou, besides which two Commissioners have been appointed from each county. The Commissioners for Aiken are Messrs. C. K. Hendeison and E. J. C. Wood.

The Temperance Worker, published at Sumter, is the official organ of the Temperance organization s of this State. It contains twenty-four col umns of printed matter, embracing editorials, news paragraphs and in structive selected matter, with only a few advertisements, as the pur pose ofthat journal is not so much to make money as to diffuse wholesome information to the people of the whole State on the Temperance question. It is ably edi ted by the following corps of writers: Rev. H. F. Chreitzberg, of Sumter, Editor; Rev. J. M. Pike, of Summer ville, Associate Editor; with Mrs. S. F. Chapin, of Charleston, S. C., and Rev. John G. Williams, of Blackville, S. C., as Corresponding Editors. The price of the paper is only sixty cents per annum, and tha head of every fam ily in the State whether a total absti nence man or not, cannot do better than to provide his children with one or more copies of this wholesome and instructive journal.

The T a U Mali Gazette’s revelations of the disgusting social crimes in English high life arc still the prevail- ng spusation in London.
