Casby on the 23d inst, issued an ord? postponing the election for mun hip al officers or dexed for tho 2d'day of June; This seems to-us t be wise, and will doubtless arrest much of the ex cttement in our towns and villages at the tim? ol th*election of county officers DECORATION OF SOLD TEES' GEA VES. The ladies of this village and vicinity, will meei on nest Saturday evening, 30th inst., at 5 o'clock, st the Baptist church, to- decorate the graves o: oar veteran- soldiers whose bodies sleep in th? graveyards of our village. We feel confident tba the mere announcement of this meeting, will in turo & large assemblage of those who esteem it ai ssiixnable privilege to pay such tokens of. respect to the memory of fallen heroes- Remember that the exercises begin at the Baptist cbarch on next Saturday evening st 5 o'clock, GRANT AND COLFAX. Oar readers hare observed that these mea have been nominated by the late Convention of Radi? cals in Chicago as the candidates for President and ^ -? Vicc-Presidcnt on the Radical ticket in the ap? proaching Presidential election. We know of nc man who is more perfectly qualified to represent t tho sentiments and designs of this extreme party than'General Gbast. His continuous insubordi. nation and disrespect as a military officer of high - sank to his superior officer, and his ingenious in? trigue, and persistent efforts to insure the im? peachment and removal of President Johksox, pre-eminently entitles aim to- the leadership oi that party who. have trampled under foot every vestige of constitutional liberty and justice. Ii the conservative people of the nation, however, will only ase those means which may be brought under their control, we believe that G bant may be defeated, and denied the pleasure of ruling with a rod of iron an already oppressed and down? trodden people. ? : ? - TF5 DISTRICT VS. COUNTY ELECTION. The election for officers to fill tho several County . .and municipal positions will, we suppose, without question, take place on the Second and Third days ' of Jane. Tho time is bow so short that it is not probable, as many have supposed, that any change will be made in the time of the election. It should also be remembered that thc elections were order? ed not specially ia accordance with the new or old State Constitutions, but under the paramount au - thority of the Reconstruction Acts of Congress. It is, therefore, of the very first importance that all of oar strength and energy should be directed in securing the election of the conservative candi? dates nominated by the good and conservative people of the District. We are gratified to know that the people have become so ranch, interested upon theso important issues, and we feet confident that the 2nd and 3rd days of June will not be for? gotten oi?-neglected by our people. Let every one turn oat and vote for the nominees of the Conserv? ative party. It will not be forgotten that just be? fore the recent election of members to the Legis? lature that it was publicly announced that the Radical party of this District would have no can? didate for the Senate, but the action of that party showed conclusively that the announcement was only an additional evidence of tbat trickery se characteristic of the entire party. Surely thc good people ot Anderson District cannot be so unsuspecting, and so blind to the real interests of the District as to be deceived by any announce? ments that may be made by the Radical party for District officers. Judging the future by the past, any announcements that they may make is no cer? tain evidence that their votes will bo cast in ac? cordance with, such announcements. No man who feels interested in the prosperity and welfare of the District should, on any account, stay from the the polls in the coming eloction. The conserva? tive people of the District can carry the election, if each ono will manfully discharge his duly at the ballot box, which the interests of the commu? nity so imperatively demand. ? TEE WORK GOES BRAVELY CN. We aro glad to notice in our exchanges that Democratic Club? are being formed in every sec? tion of the State, and that our people are going "rigorously to work preparing for the contest which baa been forced upon us. The distinctive line between- the two parties is being more perfectly drawn avery, day, aadall are becoming impressed with;the fact that thia is not only to be a white man's government, but that ovorv one will be forced to identify himself clearly with either one party or the othur. In on emergency like this, the good people of this country cannot afford to Bhow any countenance or respect to men who re? ?ase to identify themselves with those who are toiling to save oar eountry, our honor, and our in? terests from threatened impending ruin. And it is not unfair to presume that the sympathies of those who -raf usn or decliue to affiliate in any -ray with th* conservative people of this eountry are with the Radical party, and they are not entitled to any more, if even as much countenance, as thoBe who have publicly avowed, their sentiments, for the want of moral courage hos moBt likely kept these would-be neutrals from taking a bold, monly and decided stand. While we shou?d never be unwilling to receive all who may become disposed to abandon their damnable radica] heresies, and accept che platform and principles of the conservative people of the countyy, yet wo should never allow ourselves to compromise anything, where principle is involved, with those who have left no stone untamed, to ac? complish our uti jr ruin. No such compromise can be desired or accepted. With us everything is in? volved, ana we must either gain or lose all ; and if everything else is lost in a contest so unjust and forced upon us, let the honor and dignity, of our manhood never be sacrificed. Let the conservative people everywhere feel that they are necessarily united in interest and destiny, let these organi? sations everywhere be kept up, that the members of this whole party may take counsel together, and then whatever course of action may be decided ppon, then let avery one manfully and faithfully act with the decisions of his own party, and vote for.-every one who may be nominated by his party. Individual preferences and personal considera? tions should all be lost sight pf ip our determina? tion to act together. It is only in those places where success is doubt? ful that our RaJicjal enemies propose,, evep indi? rectly, compromise upon men and offices, and the people should see that po Buch compromise is ab lowed. The conservativo people should see to it that they be not compromised, either through men or n.ca?ures, by that party which owes its very. 1::? tu h.. biasing obligations, its low canning arid ?ta wicked, unjust, and unrighteous purposes TEE GAEPET BAG62B3? Tho senior editor of the Cincinnati Commercial in writing front Washington to his paper, and speak? ing of the appearance at Congress of the Senators from the reconstucted States of Arkansas and South Carolina, very properly, says :. Now, there is no seasou to believe that the per? sons presenting themselves here as Senators of tho United States from Arkansas and South Carolina, represent even the negroes of those States. They ure adven tarers, representatives of little more iban their own audacity ; and they will become, if permitted to enter the Senate, the most abject of party serfs, because they will have no possible vitality outside their party. This may be a recom? mendation to Congress, but I do not believe it is to the people. If the Arkansas and South Caroli? na reconstruction is the sort of thing Ben Wade is wanted in the White-House to promote, the less we have of it the better. -o THE HON. SCHUYLER COLFAX. The announcement of the nomination of Hon. Bchcyleb Colfax, as the nominee of the- Repub? lican party for the Vice-Presidency, in tho ap? proaching Presidential campaign, will render in? teresting the following sketch of his life, gathered ?jem a. biography which appears in Radical papers North.; Schuyler Colfax was born on the 23d of March, 1828, in New York city. His father was an officer of one of tho New York city bunks, and died four months before the birth of Schuyler. In the veins of the Speaker runs the blood of the revolutionary fathers ; his grandfather, General William Colfax, having boen the commanding officer of General Washington's life guards throughout the Revolu? tionary War. Speaker Colfax receiv.edan ordinary common school education, ami theu obtained a clerkship in a store. After three years' service he removed to Indiana, and settled in St. Joseph county. For four years young Schuyler served as a c erk in a store ia the little village of New Car? lisle, and when seventeen years old, upon receiv? ing an appointment as deputy county auditor, re? paired to the county seat, South Bend, where he has since resided. At an early age Mr. Colfax commenced to take an active interest in political matters, and frequently published his views upon the questions of the day in the local newspaper, rle soon acquired reputat ion as an able writer, and, in 1845, became proprietor and editor of the St. Josopb Valley Register, published in South Bend. Though commencing with small means and a small subscription list, the paper, by its general inter? est and the editorial ability displayed, soon be? came remunerative. Mr. Colfax was a Whig as long as there was a Whig party, and at its death he joined the Republican party. In the Whig party he had risen to some prominence, having been a delegate to and ono of the secretaries of (he convention which nominated Gen. Taylor. Mr. Colfax's first nomination to Congress was in 1851, when he was beaten by 200 votes. At tho time of his second nomination, the Nebraska bill was the most exciting issue before the country, and the representative from the District having voted for it, against the desires of bis constitutents. the anti-Nebraska men immediately selected Colfax to take the lead in punishing the delinquent, and elected him by 2000 majority. From the year 1856 up to the present time, Mr. Colfax has been successfully elected by large ma? jorities. Mr. Colfax was an enthusiastic suppor? ter of Mr. Lincoln in the campaign of I860, and as long as the latter lived he loved, respected and trusted Mr. Colfax, in whose judgment he placed such implicit confidence that it has been said he rarely took any steps affecting the interests of the nation without making his intentions known to him. In 18GS Mr. Colfax was chosen, and has since remained. Speaker of the House of Representa? tives, and has acquired a high reputation as a shrewd and kindly chairman, and a skillful parlia? mentarian. For the Anderson Intelligencer. Storeville, S. C., May 22, 18C8. Hr. Editor: The citizens in the neighborhood of Storeville met, on the 14th of March, for the pur? pose of organizing a Democratic Club -r and, as other clubs have published their proceedings, we ask a place in your valuable paper, to- report our existence in the Democratic family also. At the organization of our club J. M. Brown was invited to take (he Chair, and A. C. Jackson requested to act as Secretary. Kev. Wm. Pearson, by request, explained, in a few brief remarks, the object of the meeting, and urged the importance of concentrated action on the part of all good citizens in rescuing themselves and their posterity from the iron grasp of Radical ? rule.

Any article of this constitution may bc altered by a vote of two-thirds of the members present at.any regular meeting, subject to the rati? fication or rejection of two-thirds vote al the suc? ceeding meeting. Those present rere then invited to subscribe their names, whereupon Home tweN? persona sign? ed tho constitution, and the list has increased since. At a meeting of the club, 22d inst., the Execu? tive Committee recommended the following resolu? tions, which were unanimously adopted: Resolved, That in the event any future Legisla? ture imposes a burdenMome and onerous tax upon the land-holders, (hen we pledge ourselves nut to rent land to any one who favors and supports such Legislature, unies* they agree lo pay their pro rata share of the uixos upon said land. ResolveaTThnt we favor the policy of employing no laborer unless He is able to produce a written recommendation ; and furthermore, in selecting tenants and laborers, wo will give the preference to those who belong to the Democratic party. Resolved, That innemuch as there are a number of Radical emissaries traveling over the country as shoemakers, blacksmiths and journeyman work? men, we pledge ourselves not to countenance them by giving them any employment whatever. On motion, it was resolved (bot our stated and regular meetings be held at Storeville on Friday, before the first Sabbath in each month, at 9 o'clock a. m. On motion of Dr. J. Brown, the Editor of the Anderson Intelligencer was requested to publish the constitution and proceedings of the Storeville club.

CHICAGO REPUBLICAN CONVENTION. Chicago, May 20. The Soutbern States were called, and represent? ed on all committees. Governor Hawley, perma sent President, was introduced to the Con? vention by Governor Brown, of Georgia. The Southern States are represented among the vice Presidents and Secretaries in the permanent or? ganization. Chicago, May 21. In the Republican Covention, the Committee on Resolutions reported, congratulating tho country on the assured success of the Congressional plan of reconstruction. Congress must guarantee and maintain suffrage to the Southern loyalists ,* de? nounces repudiation as a national crime; the sa. tiona! obligations must be paid in letter and spirit ; the Government should be administered with the strictest economy ; corruption and extrava? gance, fostered by Johnson should be reformed.? Abe Lincoln's death was deplored. Deploring Johnson's accession, tho resolutions denouuee him as a usurper, violator of the lows, obstructor of reconstruction, and justly impeached of high crimes and misdemeanors. No citizens, native or naturalized, must be imprisoned when abroad, ex? cept for violations of law. Eulogizes thc soldiers and sailors?their bounties aro obligations never to be forgotten ; their orphans and widows are the nation's wards. Immigration should be fostered by a liberal and just policy. The Convention sym? pathizes with all the oppressed people who are struggling for their rights. The resolutions were adopted?2 or 3 only dissenting. Gen. Grant was unanimously nominated for President. Governor Brown, in announcing Georgia's vote, said the maxim of the Georgia Republicans, was "enemies in war?in peace friends." On the first ballot for Vise-President, Wade received 149; Fenton 132; Wilson 109; Colfax 118; Harlan 16; Kelly 6; Creswell 14; Pomeroy 1. On the fifth ballot Col? fax was nominated, reciving 552 votes. The Con? vention then adjourned subject lo the call of the President. The following is the text of platform wherein tho South is effected: 1. We congratulate the country on the assured success of the reconstruct lion policy of Congress, as evinced by the adoption, in tho majority of the States ?ately in rebellion, of Constitutions securing equal civil and political rights to all ; and it is the duty of the Government to sustain those instal? lions, and to prevent the people of those States from being remitted lo a state of anarchy. 2. The guarantee by Congress of equal suffrage to all loyal men at (he South was demanded by every consid?ration of public safety, of gratitude and of justice, and must be maintained ; while the question of suffrage in all the loyal States proper? ly belongs to the people of those States. -o PROM WASHINGTON. Washington, May 23. Grant was serenaded last night, and in response said : "Gentlemen, being unaccustomed to public speaking, and without any desire to cultivate that power, (laughter,) it is impossible for me to find appropriate language to thank you for this demon? stration. All that I can say is, that to whatever position I may be called by your will, I shall en? deavor to discharge its duties with fidelity and honesty of purpose. Of my rectitude in the per? formance of public duties, you will have to jwdge for yourselves by my record before you." Washington, May 23. The House was called to order, and immediately adjourned. Both Houses met to-day. The Executive Committee of tho Western Union Telegraph Company have issued orders to their managers to deliver no-more private telegrams to the impeachment managers. Those already ob? tained were furnished under a misapprehension of instructions. Pomeroy denies the authorization or knowledge of the Cooper letter. The Test Oath.?In the order directing the as-, sernhling of the South Carolina Legislature, Gen. Canby prescribed that the members elect should subscribe to the "test oath." Thc following para? graph, which appears in the Northern papers, in? dicates that Geu. Canby has made a mistake, aad lhal the oath will not be required: "According to a Washington telegram, General Grant has inst meted General Meade (hut thc oath prescribed by thc Reconstruction Acts to bc taken by all persons 'elected or appointed' to office in (he 'so called States of the South, is not to be taken by those elected under any new Constitution which may be adopted, unless The Constitution itself so provides.' " - ? A despatch Crom Lake City, Florida, says a few days ago, nearly t wo acres on a farm, in Ham? ilton County, suddenly sunk to thc depth of fifty feet from the surface; thc surrounding land filling with water and submerging the tops of the tallest trees. The ground is still sinking, and now covers four acres. St roams aud creeks loose themselves in the surrounding country, which forced an outlet in this way. These sinks occur occasionally, but this is the large-it and deepest known. ? Speaking of Hancock for the Presidency, the New Orleans Picayune says : "If a man who was cither equivocally or plainly on the war side is to bc chosen, we would much prefer one who fought for his principles, and* who, if kept out of his seat by Radical usurpation, will fight for it until he gets in." ? The National Intelligencer says, that Stanton's letter of resignation is in the hands of ono of his friends, who is instructed- to present it os soon as there shall bc final acrion of acquittal of the Presi? dent under the impeachment charges. ? New Orleans papers mention (ne carly ar? rival of the army worm, the destructive enemy of thc cotton plant, va- the fields east of the Missis? sippi: ? It is stated that Oen. Meade lias promised to pardon the seven citizens of Green County, Ala? bama, who have been banished to the Dry Torgtu gas by a military commission. ? A Chicago letter, alluding to the immense crowd in attendance on the Republican National Convention, says : "Thc South Carolinians have brought tents and cooking, utensils, and intend to camp in the suburbs." ??Tho Galveston' Commercial Bulletin, of the 16th instant, says: "Advices from the interior relative to the condition of ibo growing crop, have, until'within a few days, been very encour? aging, but now information has reached us from several sections reporting that the worm had made its appearance, but whether or not it is of the species that created so much devastation' last year is not definitely stated."

Stephens and embraced in ihe Dis? trict over which he is Presiding Elder, will hold their Annual District Meeting at Greenville Court House, S. C., beginning Wednesday, the 3rd of June next, and continuing until the 7th, inclusive.

May 27,1368 49 1 Nominations by the Republican Party for County Officers. Sheriff : WILLIAM McGUKlN, Clerk :? Capt. JOHN W. DANIELS. Probate Judge: Major VV. \Vr. HUMPHREYS. Sciroot. Commissioner ; JOHN WILSON, Coroner; Capt. ALEXANDER DICKSON. Cocntt Commissioners : W. SPENCER MOORE, Capt. R. JUNKIN, HENRY GENTRY. In placing Mr. Wilson's name before the people, I we will state that it was not at his request, or known to him, and done through no disrespect for Mr. Gentry, the Democratic nominee. Mr. Wil? son ie a gentleman favorably known to the com? munity as a Magistrate who gives justice to all, irrespective of race or color. His age and expe? rience is what we need to perform the arduous duties of the office, and wc feel confidence in his power to settle any difficulty which-may arise ; for it is a well-known fact thai he sett les three-fourths of the cases that come before him, without going into Court, thereby saving the State a,Yast amount of money. To prove our willingness to do justice to Mr. Gentry, we Lave nominated him for County Commissioner. The Constitution provides that no man who is not an elector can hold office, and for that reason alone we nominated Capt. Dickson (a registered veter) instead of Mr. Norris. In nominating County Commissioners, we have selected disabled men, who deserve the support and confidence of their fellow-citizens. Mr.- Moore has been unfortunate in having both arms broken-re? cently, but will be able to discharge the duties of his office, if elected. H-e is a farmer, and a Chris? tian g?ntleman, loved and' respected by his neigh? bors. Capt. R. Junkin has twice in life defended his country by shouldering his musket. He was a member of the famous Palmetto Regiment, whicli performed its duties so well in Mexico ; and in the late war, no one acted more nobly. He was se? verely wounded in fighting for what almost every Southern man believed was right. Mr. Gentry is a young man who commands, by his moral character, the respect ot all who know him. He lost an arm in the late war, and al? though a stranger to most of our oitizens, we trust he will reoeive tbe hearty support which is due him. We have no objection to thc gentlemen nomina? ted by the opposite party ; but they are among the wealthiest citizens in our county, and are able to live in comfort without th? addition of an office. We have not made it a strictly party issue, but have selected those whom we think capable and most deserving. They are not disfranchised, and can serve if elected. Although some of them were in the late war, they stand ready to do as much fr" th? Government aa they have done against iL 27, 1868 49 1 NEW SPRING ANO SUMMER GOODS. -:o: KEE8E & McCTJLLY, ABE RECEIVING A LARGE AND WELL SELECTED STOCK OF SPRIEST Gr & SUMMER GOODS, CONSISTING OF Seary Dry Goods, Men and Boys' Hate, Fancy Goods and Notions, Groceries and Hardware, Boots and Shoes, Iron, Nails, Ladies' Hats and Bonnets, Crockeryware, Ribbons, Flowers, &c, &c., &c., &c.
