Ervin was ordained to the Gospel ministry in the Baptist Church on Sunday last at l'endleton, the ordaining presbytery consisting of Revs. M. McGee, i ll. Carter, T. P. Hell and the Deacons of the l'endleton church. Mr. McGce was made chairman of the presbytery, and after a thorough examination of the candidate and all were satisfied of bis fitness for the high calling of the Cospel millistrv, he wan regularly set ajmr; to the work. Mr.Carter preached the otdiuatlon sermon, taking for his subject the pastoral relation, Mr. McGce il?ade ?be ordination prayer und Mr. Bell delivered the charge. The service through out was impressive, and was attended by a large and attentive congregation. Mr. 'Er vin is a young man of education, culture ami line intellect, and gives promise of gr-'ut usefulness in the Master's cause. He is now pa-tor of the l'endleton and Leba non churches, One of the most heart -rending accidents occurred in our city last Saturday afternoon that it has ever been our dutv to record, Two little boys, Berry and John Wilson aged respectively about seven and live years and sons of Messrs. J. E. and S. P. Wilson, were sent by tue latter to his father's brick yard to get a pair of shoes, and upon reach ing the brick yard the little boys climbed upon a heavy slab that was lying across the beads of two hogsheads, and in dismount ing it is supposed that Berry jumped dowi. first, which caused the slab to fall to the ground, one end of it striking little John on (be hack of the head and crushing his skull. His little companion hurried to Mr. Wilson and told him that John was hurt, and Mr. W. went immediately to bun and found him in un unconscious condition. He took him to the residence of Mr. J. F. Wilson, where he died in a few minutes. The uhMicted parent* have the sympathies of all our people in heir sad bereavement. The remains were interred in the Presbyte rian graveyard Sunday morning. There was a Greenback meeting at Hun ter's .Spring on last Friday, at which Maj. T. H. Russell and W. W. Russell spoke for the Grecnbackersand Hon. D. Wyatt Aiken for the Dem?crata. The meeting had been called at the time of the County Demo cratic Convention, for the purpose of pre venting the Democratic speakers ?rom meeting them and exposing their misrepre sentations and real purposes. Col. Aliceli 1 very efficiently represented the Democracy, and showed that the pretended new party was only a wing of the Republican party, formed for the purpose of splitting the Democracy as far as possible. At the con clusion of the meeting a Greenback Club of eleven white and nine colored nu n was formed, with Mr. . G. Fret well as presi dent, Mr. David Palmer as vice-president, and Capt. G. W. Belcher as secretary. We regret the formation of this club, fur we bad hoped that there could not be found half a dozen white men in Anderson coun ty willing to help in the work of dismem i bering the Democratic party. This club will not injure the Democracy, ) 'l c011" tains no man of any considerable political influence Iii its ranks. It is only the name of having a Greenback club in Anderson County that we regret. THE COUNTY CONVENTION.

The resolution from the Pcndleton Club was then taken up, und after some remarks In it.s favor by Maj. G. W. Marett, Mr. D. 11. Russell ottered the following os a substi tute : itetolved. That the delegates to the Stute Convention be apportioned among the Democratic Clubs according to the vote cast in isso. The substitute was lost. Maj. A. S. Todd then made an earnest speech against the adoption of the resolu tion, it was a new departure, ami the Convention should be very careful before making any depurture from the old customs of the party. He was in favor of giving the country the largest number of delegates to the State Convention. The same spirit that prompted the introduction of this res olulion would creep into the election for County officers, and make divisions among the people. It was a mero subterfuge to say that the city of Anderson would arro gate to itself the right to naine the delega tion to the State Convention. Col. J. G. Clinkscales agreed with Maj. [Todd. and spoke against the resolution. He said that the men who were sent to the State Convention should he selected on ac count of their fitness to represent us, and not on account of their residence in anv particular part of the County. If they all lived in one sect ion it made no difference, If they were the best mon to be found. They were sent to represent M"; whole County, and not some particular section of it. Col. R. W. Simpson spoke in favor of the resolution. He said that then.- had been dissatisfaction in the past, and we should now carefully consider the matter of giving satisfaction In the selection of delegates to this Convention. It was of great impor tance, :ts allegiance to the Democratic party was voluntary on the part of the citizens. J There had been complaints of cliques ami rings ail over the State, and this was the way to stop such complaints. Col. Clinkscales replied to Col. Simpson, paying that he did not see the necessity for dividing the County up into sub-divisions. The delegates should be selected from the County at large. The resolution would narrow things down to too line a point. Dr. \V. C. Drown heartily concurred in what Col. Clinkscales had san'. He had heard the cries about town cliques, city cliques and Columbia cliques, but did not believe them. He could see no end to the thing when it was once started. It would result in discord, and it would not be long before you would hear families complain ing because some one of their number had not been chosen os a delegate. All dissen sions should be frowned down, and the Democratic party kept united. Maj. Todd then introduced the following ns Substitute for the resolution before the Convention : Uesotred, Thut we, as individual members of this Convention, agree that in selecting the ten delegates to the Stute Convention we should as nearly as possible disf ibute them equally throughout the County. ? Col. Simpson said that there was no ques tion as to u united Democracy, but them was dissatisfaction. He did not say the dissatisfaction was just, but it existed, never theless. He moved to lay the substitute on the table. Carried. Col. J. C. Strihling said that the State Executive Committee enlarged the repre sentation to the State Convention this year with a view of popularising the matter, and bringing it prominently before the people, and this was what the adoption of the resolntion meant to do, and would do. Mr. J. Belton Watson said thut it had been his misfortune recently to meet two adversaries of the Democracy, and it was on the hobby of cliques and rings that they harped most. It was best to adopt the principle embodied in the resolution. He regarded it the only means of bringing sat isfaction to all the people. The resolution was then adopted. Capt. J. M. Glenn moved that the Con vention go into an election for ten delegates to the State Convention- Carried. Mr. \V. S. Brown moved that a majority of tho votes east be necessary to election. Adopted. A motion to elect ono delegate ut a time wn; voted down. A motion to elect by ballot was* adopted, A number of questions were then asked ! as to how nominations would be made, and for some minutes considerable confusion ^CapL II. R. Vandivcr moved that a recess be taken for fifteen minutes, to give the delegations from the several sub divisions tinn to prepare nominations. The question was put, and the chair Ue claied the motion carried. A "division" was called for. when the vote was again taken, resulting 77 for recess and 75 against recess. The chair then adjourned the Convention for fifteen minutes. At tho expiration of the time for the re ccs", the Convention was re-assembled. Mal J. N. Vandivcr moved to reconsider the voto by which the resolution to appor tion delegates was adopted. Col. Simpson moved to lay the motion on the table. Adopted. On motion, it was decided that where only one person was neminated from a sub division, Mr. . . . ?bt should cast the I ballot for the Convention. The following nominations were tuen 1 made by the chairmen of the joint delega tions fr m the several sub divisions : 1st. Co.net nnd a -Or. A. G. Cook and Jesse P. McGee. _ . 2nd.

I unii the gentlemen nominated from those sub divisions were announced as elected. A ballot was then bml on tbo nomina tions from the other sub-divisions. Pending tiie report of the tellers, the Convention proceeded to business. Dr. W. c. Brown moved that the chair uivu of the delegations from the sub-divis ions from which delegates had own elected be authorized to make nominations fv>r al ternates. Adopted. Mr. t?. '. Toily offered the following res olutions /{esiliteli, That the delegates to the State Convention elected from this body bo, and they are hereby, instructed to urge the adoption of an amend men t to the constitu tion of the party m this State, by which all future Convention? of the Democratic party in South Carolina .shall he composed of deli-gate.- Bp|tortiohed among the several Counties of the State according to the Dem ocratic vote polled in each County for the regular D?mocratie ticket. fiesolted further, That said delegates be instructed to urge upon the Convention the adoption of the primary system for the nomination of Congressmen . and if such system is uot adopted for \A\9 whole State, then our delegation to tire Congressional Convention be Instructed to urge its adop tion by the Third District. Dr. \V. c. Drown and Mr. <J. . Prince supported the resolutions, and they were adopted unanimously, Mr. W. t?. Brown Introduced tho follow ing resolution : Itesolvut, That the County Executive Committee, in framing rules for the gov ernment of the Primary Elation, be in structed to provide that no one shall vote at said election unless the person so offer* ing to vole shall present his certificate of Registration, or produce other evidence of his registration satisfactory to the managers ol election. Mr. Q. E. Prince favored modifying the resolution. Col. Simpson oderai "the fol lowing as a substitute : Rcsohctl, That n<> person who has been known as an avowed Radical shall be al lowed to vote at any primary election, un less he has been u member of some D?mo cratie. Club for at least one month next preceding said election. The Substitute was adopted. Mr. ti. . Tolly introduced the following resolution : Resolved, That the powers pertaining to this Convention be full) and completely vested in the Executive 'Committee ut ail tittles when there is no Convention in ? ? isiem e, except that such. Committee ubali have no power to reverse or amend any thing which has been distinctly acted on by this Convention ; and to this end shall have power to pass rules for the govern ment of the Primary Election, to cai! Club meetings for County purposes, and fix the time ol such meetings, and perform auch other acta as in their judgment may con duce to the successful conduct of the party ; Provided, That such action shall not be in coullict with the Constitution of the party in the State or County, and shall not con flict with any enactment of this Conven tion. Col. Simpson moved to lay the resolution on the table, but withdrew his motion to allow discussion. Mr. Tolly spoke in favor of the resolu tion, and thought It was necessary to the good of tho party. Col. Simpson opposed ita adoption, on the ground that tuo County Commlttoe had sufficient powers, and that thoso pow ers wore fully delined by the constitution of the party. Col. Rucker moved to mfor the resolu tion to a committee of live, with instruc tions to consider aud report to this cou vontlon. Col. Simpson moved that tho wbolo matter bo laid on the tablo. Carried. Maj. <t. W. Melico thon moved that tho Majority rule lor nominating caudidates in primary election bo adopted for tho government of tho party in this county. Col. L. K.
