As will he sr-eii from an article else where, the (Egyptians defending Alexan drin raised a flag of truce in IS hours after tho bombardment began, and pend ing negotiations Aribi Pasha's forces withdrew from the city, leaving it in the hands of the Redimios and libera ted convicts who sacked the city, mur dered large numbers of the foreign -ettlers in the city, burned large districts >f the city and committed innumerable outrages of every description. When the Kiigiish discovered the condition "f affairs they immediately landed, ami bo gttii putting down the disorders with an iron hand. Murderers nnd house burners were shot, and rogues lashed. The Khedive united with the English in trying to restore order, and things are now being conducted in an orderly man ner. Aribi Pasha, with his army of live or six thousand men, lias withdrawn to the interior of Egypt, and for the pres ent things arc in a very unsettled condi tion. War may be ended soon, or it may he slowly dragged along for months. If no other p.nvers become involved the consequences will not be serious in ils effects upon European markel*, but if the groat powers become involved a tremendous conflict will ensue. This, however, is not probable. As it is, tho Egyptian supply of cotton will he mate rially diminished hy the demoralization of tho agriculture and the destruction of the penco of that country. This may make the demand for our cotton rather hotter this year than usual. The scenes in Alexandria havo been fearful. Its wreck is complete, and the world in sympathizing with her people, who nro suffering a thousand fohl moro from the treachery of Aribi Pasha than from the English bombardment. nit-: i>KMocnAC\"8 danokii. It cannot be otherwise than a source of regret to every thoughtful Democrat to sec in different portions of our State more or less of controversy and faction manifesting itself in the Democratic Clubs. Unless this spirit is checked, the end of Democratic ascendancy in South Carolina is not far distant. Factions weakened the Republican party few years ago to such an extent that although ii.cy Hau . majoni? 1011} mousanu voters, their party by schism nnd lack of unity of action, lost tho Stato government, and have not yet been able to recover it. With this practical lesson as to tho re sult of divisions, -tho Democratic party ought to avoid the rock upon which the Republican majority was wrecked. In all dissensions ono or tho other party is apt to be wrong in the beginning, but ns a general thing if the other party does not assume mistaken position, the dis sension Is not apt to extend very far. Most commonly both sides in a contro versy aro apt to take indefensible ground in some part of tho dispute, and there Is the point where crimination nnd recrim ination begin. In politics there is but one safe rule to govern our actions, nnd that is the right of majority legitimate ly aud fairly exercised to rule. The majority of to-day, however, may be the minority of to-morrow, nnd tho very ex istence of political ascendancy in South Carolina depends upon tho principle of bearing and forbearing, which will malo tho members of tho party willing to yield their personal views and wishes to those of tho majority, trusting to the vindication of time, and those change? in opinion which are sure to make things even sooner or later. In difficulties like those which have occurred in aome parts of the Stale, the advocates of both sides are more than likely to bo excited and act with very little deliberation. Things are said that are useless and unkind? that only fou instead of heating the breach. Two much pride of opinion nud love of victory are permitted to en ter into men's opinione, and actions aro taken which to outsiders aro useless, if not ridiculous, and nine times out of ten upon sober reflection in cooler moments are regretted by the participating parties themselves. We hope in future that all differences between Democrats in South Carolina may be averted. We have fighting enough to do against our com mon enemy, and it is moat unfortunate to wasto our strength in quarrels with each other. Unity of purpose is not enough. It requires also unity of action to defeat the Republicans in South Caro lina. It is better for us to yield our preference as to some things, than to risk losing the control of South Carolina. At i resent the Democracy is in no dan ger, but if tho local dissensione aro con tinued it is only u question of time ns to when these troubles will distract our counties and the Stato itsolf. "Letthere bo no d?vnom among you," is an In junction which may well be given to the 1 Democrats of South Carolina. We can not afford them. They will lead ub to disorganisation and party ruin. t Tho Club meeting? to be held next Saturday arc very important in their re suit? to the Democracy of the County. It is to be hoped that every Democrat who can do so will attend the meeting of the (' ) to which he belongs. Senator Hampton says that he can bot serv? as President of the South Carolina University, even if he should he elected to that position. This announcement will make the ??lection of Col. Thump* sun for the Presidency very certain. Tho split in the Republican party of Pennsylvania has not been healed, al- j though tin most strenuous efforts have been made to secure a settlement. The result is that the Regular* and tho Inde pendent!* are fighting one nuotimi as hard as they are fighting the Democrats, and the cons?quence ta that the Democracy stand a good chance to carry the State this Full for the lir.-t time in many years. If Pennsylvania should he wrested from the Cameroun itrttl turned over to the Democrats, we veit Id elect the ?ext Pres? ident with all ease. In that event it would not be difficult to name him, for <ien. Hancock would be the man, The County Kxecutivc Committee has requested the Democratic Clubs at their meeting un next Saturday to do three very important thing*: Ist. Tu elect one delegate to the Cuiiiiiy Convention for every twenty-live members <>f the Club as ascertained by the Club list of I8H0; 2nd. To elect a member id' the County I'xecntivc Committee from ea h club; and, "rd. To Instruct their delegates to the County Convention lu voie for the .Majority or the Plurality plan of nomi nating candidates, as the Club may pre fer. These are important matters, and should bo attended to by as full meetings as possible. To this end every Democrat shoultl attend his Club meeting and vote as Iiis judgment dictates. Judge Pressloy has decided that in all appeals from Trial Justices in criminal or civil cases the case is tobe tried upon the evidenc e h? cut up by the Trial Justice, and that the appealing parly is not en titled to have a new trial in the sense uf offering new evidence or -wearing wit nesses on the appeal. This decision makes it important in all oases before Trial Justices to have the evidence prop erly taken down and fully reported. It has a great advantage to the country, however, in not requiring a oust of wit nesses to be brought lu the Court House and kept here a week waiting for some trivial appeal from the Trial Justice Court to be called in the Court of Com mon Pleas. This will save the various counties hundreds of dollars every year. According lo the reputi of the .Super visor of Registration, the white majority in Marion county is 1,058. The Marion Sfar saya : "So Democracy is safe in .Ma rion, if the Democrats themselves don't kill it by divisions ami quarrels in their own family." This admonition might with great propriety ho extended to the Democracy of the whole State, lor un fortunately minor differences are being allowed to interfere with party harmony in various parts of the State. Divisions in our ranks arc fraught with the most serious consequences and dangers to nur material aud political prosperity. Our people should in every part of the Stato remember that only by harmony and unity of action can the Democratic party expect to hold the Slato government. Realizing this fact, every Democrat in South Carolina should bear and forbear, rather than do any act that will bring Bchism or discord in our ranks. .JDIK1K IVALLACK DKCLIMvS. Ilelow we publish a letter from Judge Wallace to the AVtra and (.varier de clining to permit his name to go before the State Convention for tho Guberna torial ii?iUi??liult. i'?iis teller ought, in j our opinion, to induce the public to look I nljnu'linrtt frir ibg nominee for thi:? im portant ofllce, although there is no doubt that Ju Jgo Wallace would be in every respect a most desi ruble candidate for our party. His record as Speaker of tho House is historic for its chivulrous bear ing and its sirici impartiality, its fairness aud its ability. His record upon tho Rendi is equal to tho best for dignity, learning and justice. His persoual in tegrity, his attainments and hie command over rien mark him as the peer of any man in the Stato in influence unel popu larity. It is not to be wondered that he should have been pressed against hie will for this position, but we think where so many men of ability and fitness are will ing to eervo as Governor that it would not bo right to call a man (rom service equally important and more congenial to his tastes and aspirations. Judgo Wal? lace is doing the Stato very excellent service, and for public and personal rea sons he prefers to remain in his present position. Wo think Judge Wallace is right, and though wo regret that we can not have his services as Governor, we are glad thnt the strongest reason for not getting them is that he is now where he can Borvc us better. Judgo Wallaco saya: 2b the Ulitar of Utr Sevi und Charier : Suggestions of my name in connection with tho nomination for (Jovornor by tho approaching Democratlo Convention hav ing appeared In tho newspapors, I think it right that I should muko public state ment in rogttrel to the matter. In the oarlv part of the present yoar a feeling of disconteut existed In* some parts of tho Stato among good men who wore strongly opposed to ivrtain con spicuous euactmonts of tho Legislature. Timo and opportunity for reflection havo satisfied those that every general elec tion In South Carolina Involves moro momentous Issues than aro supplied by tho Registration Act and stock law, ami that they cannot, in good conscience, because tboy aro opposod to certain Acts of tho Legislature, imperil good govern ment by f?idiiTorouco, or activo opposition to the only party in the Stato that can secure it te Ita people. Anel now, with Insignificant oxcoplions, our gallant aud patriotic people nre united with respect to tho approaching political contest. The political situation In this State points with absoluto cortalnty to tho easy oloc t Ion of any nominees that tho Democrat ic Convention will nominato. The duties of my present ottico are in tho Hue ot tho labor of many of tho heat year's of my Ufo. I trust I will be par donod for saying that an exporienoo of nearly Ilvo years In performing them has prepared mo to rendor more substan tial sorvlco to tho State In my prcsont ofllce than I possibly can as a candidate for Governor. These reasons, together with othors which need not be stated, but which aro imperativo, require mo to deoline to allow my nnmo to go bo'.oio tho Conven tion for nomination for Governor. W. H.

No plan has yet been agreed upon, unit It w-oui? 1 take u great deal of time and causo Homo | delay to arrange all tho details necessary for the propor conduct of the elections under this plan. It would bo well, how ever, lor the Stato Convention in August to take this whole matter under consider atimi and adopt sucb actions as uiity bo deemed best foi tb? party und tho .State. a kw n.vsis of e a . Thcro is another matter which Is thy of some intention. According the I constitution of the Democratic party ouch county is entitled to representation in tho ? State Convention in proportion to ita rep resentation in both branches of tho Gun oral Assembly. There is a feeling In fa vor of changing this rulo and making tho Democratic vote in tho diff?rent coun ties tho basis of representation In the Stato Convention. According to tho present rulo counties -..Inch have the smallest Democratic stretigt?i aro entitled to equal representation in the nomina ting convention with counties which bave tho greatest Domocrutic. strength. Berke ley .County, for instance, with total Democratic strength of less than three hundred voters, has a right to send two more delegates to the Siaie Convention than Anderson County, where tho reg istered strength of tho Democracy Is freally in excoss of the Republican voto, 'hp s?nie statement of facts will apply to many other counties in the Stato, wldcb aro represented In the conventions of tho party not in proportion to the number of Democratic votora but accor ding to their total population. It is reasonable thai in shaping tho policy and in choosing tho candidates of the parly the counties which do most to secure Dotnocratto victory should bo entitled to the largest representation. Tho voting strength of the party, and not tho total population In lue different counties, should be tho basis of represeut.Mton In tho conventions of tho party. There aro a number of excellent Democrats lu Berkeley and llcaufort Counties, but there aro not enough of them. Tho Constitution of tlie party should bo changed in this important particular. I have favored such a policy for years, and tho exceeding fairness of tbo propo sition must strike every ono with great forco. There can bo no chango in tbo composition of tho August Convention, but that body should deviso somo plan by which th?ro can bo somo inore equi table basis of representation than that which at present exists.?J.
