"Wants to be an Editor.*' The editor sat in his Bauet um and looked the old man m the eye, Then glanced st the grinning, yoong hopeful, and mournfully made this reply: *3B yonr son a small un hound edition or Moses and Solomon both ? Can he compass his spirit in meekness aad strangle a natural oath? Can he leave all his wrongs to the future and carry his heart in his cheek ? Can he do an hour's work In a m?nate, and Uve ? on a sixpence a week ? Can he courteously talk to an equal, and brow? beat an impudent duncev Can he keep things In apple-pie order, and do a j half-dozen at once? Can he press all the springs or knowledge with quick and reliable touch f And be sure that he knows how mnch to know, and knowa how not to know too much ? Does he know how to stir up his virtue, and put a check-rein on lila pride ? Can he carry a gentleman's manners with a rhinoceros' hide? Can he know all. and do all, and ba all, with cheerfulness, courage and vim I lr so. we perhaps can be maklug an editor oaten o' him. The farmer stood curiously ll-tenlng, with wonder j his visage o'erspread ; And he said, "Jim, I guess we'll be goln' ; he's probably out of his head." THE CAMPAIGN NEWS. Greeley Against Grant-A Paper Tor the Teople. The Presidential Campaign for 1872 bas opened. It will be the most exciting that the country has ever known. The issues, in? volved are extraordinary in character, and come directly home to every citizen. The overthrow of Grant and the election of Greeley mean Honesty and Reform in the National Administration, the triumph of Law and the restoration of Peace and Harmony throughout our land, and a retara to the ? fundamental principles of government which prevailed in the better days of the Re? public. The most intense interest will naturally be felt io the progress and result of the straggle, especially in the South, where the material prosperity of the people and their relief from organized persecution and rob? bery are involved. We mean that THE CHARLESTON- NEWS shall at this joncture in no respect fail to deserve the favor] which has been accorded to it as an earnest, enterprising and outspoken chronicle of the events of the day.

THE CAMPAIGN IN COLLETON. The Radical Parties In the Field-The Sc to em tn g of Hr. McIntyre, -who De? clares for Moses-A Convicted Trial Jastlce-One for Scott-The Matthews Barder-Condition of the Crops. [FROM I OR OWN CORRESPONDENT. 1 WALTERBORO' August 2. The campaign is regarded as a serious mat? ter of business in this county among the spall-fry politicians. These hewers of wood and drawers of water are now holding forth at our corners, and for the small inducement of drinks they "cry aloud and spare not;" but no enthusiasm among the rank and file re? wards their perspiring efforts. They look for? ward with eager eyes to more substantial per? quisites than split-skull whiskey and racking headaches when the treasury will be opened and their pockets be distended witb public plunder. Serious complications and misunderstand? ings, o? the most unpleasant nature, are dally .disturbing the irater nal felicity ol office-hold? ers and candidates for office in our county. Threats of removal and the most damaging I .exposures are now as common as tau cent watermelons and eager candidates. The resignation ol Mr. J. W. Burbidge, county auditor, caused general regret; aod the subsequent appointment of Dr. J. Edward Glover, wno ls au uncle ot the* treasurer. Cap? tain Grace, was the cause of much dissatis? faction, especially among Republicans, (who, at last, seem to object to put up lamlly Jobs like those at the White House, ) upon which dis? covery, Governor Scott revoltea the appol nt ment of Dr. 6. and the acceptance of Mr. Bnrbidge's resignation, and notified the lat ter that he would be expected to perform the duties ot his office till further orders. It is re? ported, on reliable authority, that F. W. Sas portas, an incompetent trial justice of Sum? merville, will receive the appointment when Mr. Burbidge ls elected cleric ol the circuit j court, for which he is a prominent candidate. Colonel George F. McIntyre, our non-resi? dent senator honored us with a visit last week, as he always kindly does before election. He was interviewed by prominent leading Re- J publicans, and promised graciously that the jrrexielection should be a fair one. No bal lot ?tufBng, no military intimidation, no false counting, but everything should be right, for he ls not a candidate now. He also promised to return at once to Columbia and have Cap? tain Grace removed and have a treasurer ao poited who will give satisfaction and restore confidence. He bas bed precinct meetings at many places without any notice, and dele? gates to the county convention (which has not yet been called) elected, who will all favor his election as chairman of the delegation to the State Convention, which he says he would not miss for five thousand dollars. He ls a strong advocate of yoong Moses, the lord of attaches, and ls willing to bet all he makes at f the convention on his election. There are two well defined wings of the Re? publican party in Colleton. One pride them eelves ou being the extreme Radical wing, composed of all the carpet-bog office-holders Md negro politicians seeking office, inflam? mable, Incendiary white men and honesty liatlng characters whom resoectable people, black and white, shrink from like a pestilence; men who oppose nil peace and. good feeling! between races and parties, and wbo, li lol- [ lowed, will lead their rece to ruin This class ?re advised by such men as Solicitor Wiggla, who told the negroes here, at a Grant meet- J lng, that If the" ,oted for Greeley, and tal? lowed the aurice of Charles Sumner, they would be put back into slavery, which original discovery they attributed to the scintillations of the sublimes): unrewarded genius. The solicitor seemed to agree with them as to his , being unrewarded, lor he immediately drew all the money In the treasury, and the jurors abd witnesses (whose crops bad been ruined Dy two weeks' absence) had tosell their checks , cn the streets for sixty cents on the dollar. Tba other wise ls composed of a few white native Republicans and the more honest and better disposed negroes, who proclaim their intention to pu : In office none but honest and capable men li they can be had. McIntyre, li I may credit the leaders of both these par? ties, has promised them both bis most disin? terested support. Both wings go for Grant. The white people will go lor Greeley, and sup? port the best of the two local tickets, If there is any ehoice. At tbe last term of the court, A. W. Smith, a colored trial justice, was indicted for mis? conduct la office, to wit : Receiving a bribe, packing a jury to convict prosecutor, tamper? ing with the jury, extortion and oppression, habitual drunkenness, all of which was fully proved, and be war onvicted bv a jury often colored and two vt .e men, and ls now under? going sentence in tue Jail. The Governor re? insert, to pardon him, to his credit be lt put, though strong efforts were made by politi? cians, and Smith was allowed to go to Colum? bia to see the Governor. Holmes, the escaped convict, who killed Mr. Mathe wea in Beaufort, whose death sen? tence was commuted to Imprisonment in the penitentiary lor life, and who broke away and escaped from the guard some time since, was captured near this town last week, and awaits in irons the requisition of the superintendent of the penitentiary. The corn crops lo this county are the finest made for years, although lill last Sunday But? lering for rain, but may soon be regarded as made. The colton is not near so good as the corn, but if lt meets with no accident the crop will be very fair. WILKINS MICAWBER. JOTTINGS ABOUT THE STATE. -Mrs. Annie P. Simpson, of Laurens, died on the 30th ult. -Miss Margaret Graham of Chesterfield, died on Saturday. -Miss Martha Beaty, of Union, died on Monday, aged eighty. -Berry Briar, convicted of grand larceny at the January term, 1872, of the Court ol General Sessions for Greenville County, Judge Orr presiding, was on Friday pardoned by the Governor. -The bar at Pickens on court day were men or weight-Major Perry, 21G pounds; J. P. Reed, 226pounds; W. E. Holcombe, 256pounds, and John R. Holcombe, 223 pounds. - -That portion of the Port Royal Railroad between Augusta and Sand Bar Ferry has been finished. Au excursion train passed over it Saturday afternoon. -The train over the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad ran over an unknown colored man, Saturday, lu Lexington County, about one mlle from tbe Congaree bridge. The head, an arra and a leg were completely severed and Ute breast crushed. -A negro laborer on the Port Royal Rail? road was severely injured Thursday morning by the pile-driver lo operation at the bridge of the Port Royal Railroad, near Sand Bar Ferry. He was carried to Augusta and placed under medical treatment. -The Edgefleld Advertiser ls Informed, In regard to the reported resignation of the presi? dency of the Charlotte. Columbia and Augusta Railroad by Colonel William Johnston, that no such thing will probably take place. -Mrs. Gibbs, the wife of Dr. J. H. Gibba, of Union, met with a painful accident on Tues? day last, by the discharge of a pistol she was examining, which went off in her hands, the ball striking ber In tbe leg, and Inflicting a se? vere flesh wound. The wound ls not danger? ous, and she is dclng well. -On Sunday afternoon last the house of James Blake, on the Fuller plantation, St. Helena Island, was struck by lightning. The chimney was thrown down and the floor ripped up. Robert Deas was hurt by the fall? ing bricks. Simon Goodwlnc, Ben Deas and a little girl were stunned by the lightning, but none of the persons are seriously Injured. All the persona were colored. THE GROWING CROPS. The Columbia Carolinian says: "The copious rain which lell here on Thursday has had the effect of reduclog the temperature manv de? grees,' so that 1er the past two nights sleep has been a real restorer.'' The Chesterfield Democrat says: "A severe drought is prevailing in this section, which threatens disaster to the corn and cotton crops. We learn tbat the blooms and forms on the cotton are being parched dry aud railing off to an alarming extent, and vegetation of every kind ls wilted. The weather has been warm the entire week." The Laurens Herald says: "The weather for several days past hos been exceedingly warm and dry, and cropa are beginning to need rain. We have heard of but little rain havlog fallen In tbe county for two weeks past-none at all at this place during that Serlod. A few more days of such sun as we ave had for the past Ave or six days, will materially iojure the corn and cotton." TBE FRENCH LOAN. The demand of the French Government upon the patriotism as well as the resources of the French people has been promptly and magnifi? cently met. No sooner bad the enormous loan ot three millards ot.irancB, equivalent In our money to six hundred millions of dollars, been iairly put upon the market, than the subscrip? tion lists were filled to quadruple that amount. M. Goulard bas abundant Justification for say? ing that this shows that by the war France proved herself to have Buffered, not decadence, but expiation. Never was a financial ventui e crowned with so splendid a result; but Fra; ce does not now lor the first time exhibit to the world a noble evidence of its patriotism and self-trust. In the autumn ol 1870, when the prospects ot the nation were the gloomiest, when the German hosts swarmed over the fairest provinces, and the Empire had given away to what seemed anarchical contusion, a loan was asked for. and triple the amount de? manded lor the salvation of France was eager? ly offered within eight and forty hours. At about tbe same period victorious Germany asked her subjects, too. for a loan. Wbat was the response? The amount offered did not reach the figure proposed by Bismarck, by millions. The contrast le full of significance. The French, especially peasants, have au unalterable, an lnvlaclble faith In France. In the bitterest hour of humllatlon the French could pour out their last resources; when Ger? many rode on the topmost tide of loreign con? quest the Germans refused to trust their money in the hands of their rulers. *. The present loan exceeds by millions any loan which has preceded it. Three milliards have yet to be paid the loreign conquerors as the penalty of defeat. Two hundred millions must be raised to cancel the home deficit for the coming year. France ls gloriously equal to the occasion. Her fields have at least not been seared by the blight ol a dead patriot? ism. Her wealth ls Billi at the service ot "la patrie." Her confidence In the Government is manifested by deeds which speak, not only louder than words, but louder than the deeds of the battle-field. Truly, history may be searched In vain for the parallel of this accept? ance ol' the burdens entailed by a war unique in disaster, which seemed io leave no ray of hope even for national existence. Two-fold the whole amount of our own national debt Is forthcoming lrom French pockets, in the course ot French rehabilitation, in a day. Who shall say now that France ls in a state of de? cay; that she is plunged In that moral ruin which precedes material ruin? Who shall deny the nat'on which, struck to earth, ever rises endowed with new strength, the rank and portion of one ol the great powers oi the earth? It ls impossible to view this marvel? lous capacity for recuperation without admira? tion ; or lo see a nation rising, a? France ls ris lnsr, from the ashes of a most cruel and de? vastating war, without presaging for her a future, under the Republic, of power and progress such as perhaps she did not attain under Louis the Great or the Napoleons. fHamtfactttres.

LABARRAQUE AND Co QUINIUM LABARRAQUE Approved by thc Imperial Academy of Medicine The Qainlnm Labarraqae is an eminently tonic and febrifuge Wine, destined to replace all the oilier preparations of Peruvian Bark. The Bark Wines usually employed inme dicine are prepared from Barks which vary considerably in the degree to which they possess the desired properties. Besides, owing to the manner in which they are pre? pared, these Wines , contain scarcely more than the traces of active principles, and these always in variable proportions. The Qninium Labarraqne, approved by the Academy of Medicine, constitutes, on the contrary, a m?decine of determined compo? sition, rich in active principles, and on wich Physicians and Patients can always rely. The Qninium Labarraque is prescribed willi great success lor persons of weak con titution, or for those debilitated by various exhausting causes or past sickness ; for youths fatigued by too rapid growth; for young girls whose development takes place with difficulty; for women in childbirth; and for aged persons enfeebled by years or illness. lt is the best preservative against Fevers. In cases of Chlorosis. Anemia, orGreensik ncss, Ibis Wine is a powerful auxiliary of Hie ferruginous preparations: In conjunction, for example, with VALLET'S PILLS, the rapidi ly of its ucl ion is really marvellous.
