COLUMBIA, S. C. Wednesday adorning, August 28,1872. For President of the United Slates. HORACES GREELEY, of New York. For Vice-Fresident B. GRATZ IIIIOWN. or MUinurl. Blect Your Best Dieu. There are eight or nine Counties in our State, suoh as Anderson, Fiokens, Ooonee, Greenville, Spartanburg and others, in which the white people have a olear majority, and can elect whom tl. j please to County offices, cud to repre? sent them in the General Assembly. The delegates from these Counties have been, since the radical changes effected by the Reconstruction Aots, the only modicum of representation allowed to the property-holderi or white citizens of the State. They have not, heretofore, been sufficient in numbers to prevent mischievous or corrupt legislation by their mere votes, and therefore none of it is chargeable, properly, to them. Still, they have not entirely met the expecta? tions of the Conservative oitizens of the State. They have generally voted right, but, with a few honorable exceptions, they have not been active and earnest in their denunciations of wrongs and frauds which were being committed under their very noses by tbeir scheming and venal assooiates of the Badical per? suasion. The Republicans, indeed, have repeat? edly charged that some of the Demo? crats were no better than themselves, and were equally ready to engage in illi oit legislation when they were allowed to share in tho spoils. We are slow to give oredenee to such infamous charges, especially as we know that the Demo? crats, with very rare exceptions, recorded their votes against all swindling mea? sures. It serves to show, however, the necessity for the seleotion of men of irreproachable character, and also of ability and experience, so far as is prac ti sable. We have had enough of half-way com? promise men, such as the Dem?crata in the Legislature have frequently been. Even if they are honest and faithful to their public trusts, they have no power, and exert little, if any, . influence. So far as praotioal results go, snch men might as well Btay at home. One earn? est, capable member, able and willing to apeak persuasively, is worth to ns in the present General Assembly a dozen ordi? nary men, of small calibre, who conflue tbeir legislative efforts to voting aye or nay upon the questions as they are put. A gentleman of high character and ability will command the respect and esteem of the very worst men, and will exeroise a powerful influence over them. The voice of one honeBt man will put to flight a legion of thieves. In ordinary times, electors may be allowed to gratify their personal preferences for individuals io the selection of public officers, without serious detriment to the interests of the community. Now, however, when at best we can secure but a small minority in the Legislature, it is incumbent upon every good oitizen to Bet all other con? siderations aside, and vote nut for the mun he may like best, but for him who, he knows, will be able to render tbo best servioe to the State. There have been two causes, in our judgment, which have heretofore hin? dered the white Counties from selecting, in all cases, their ablest and best men to represent them in the State Government. In the first place, gentlemen of cha i toter, such ns had been wont in better days, when public office was a mark of distinction and honor, to accept posi? tions, were disinclined to be thrown in with such a disreputable crew as they knew would be congregated at the State House. In the second place, tho best mon in our State were, as a rule, the most pro? minent in the war, and those, too, who, from an advanced age, were not active participants in the clash of arms, were identified with the past history of the State. It was very generally oonoeived that men like these would be especially dis? tasteful to the negroes, and with a view, therefore, to counting the negro vote where the majorities were small, second rate, compromise men were fixed upon and eleoted. We trost this short-sighted polioy will be no longer pursued. Tho Democratic or Conservativo members of the Legisla? ture are our forlorn hope. Each one should be a tower of strength in him? self. Greenville has led off in the right direction by plaoing B. F. Ferry at thc bead of her tioket. We hope the other Oounties will follow her good example, and send none but pure and, as far oe they can, able and influential representa? tives to the Legislators. Darwin is to publish a new work on "The Expression of the Emotions ia Man and Lower Animals." TKO Bollar?' Address. We publish, this morning, the address whioh the "True Republicans," or Or? ites, have made to the citizens of the State. Though containing nothing new, it is a capital address, as coming from Republicans. Tho charges therein set forth of corruption, fraud and venality against the present State Government, have appeared, time and again, in the columns of this and other Conservative journals throughout the State. They come, however, with greater force from a body of Republicans, for there are hu? miliating confessions of the misdeeds of their own political associates, and are, therefore, undeniable. Whether the bolters will do any better than the un? bolted, remaiua to be seen. Their State ticket ia certainly far preferable. But what about the Legislature? How is that to be reformed? Other men may be selected, but they must be inexperi? enced and uneducated negroes. They will be poor, too, and when subjeoted to the same temptations as their predeces? sors, upon what rational grounds can we hope that they will not yield, too, to tbe glittering allurement of the gold of the lobbyists, who will swarm around them with their jobs and schemes to "develop the resources of the State?" THE WEST VIRGINIA. EJECTION.-The latest returns from West Virginia indi? cate the eleotion of Jacobs, the present incumbent, who ran as an independent Democrat, over Camden, the regular no? minee. The now Constitution, upon whioh the people also voted, is still in doubt. ?s generally conceded hitherto, the result of this eleotion can have no bearing upon the Presidential election, the issues being generally of a local cha? racter. The Republicans having no ticket of their own, voted the independ? ent ticket, whioh, it is stated, represent? ed also the mass of the Liberal party. THE RIOHT OP A PHOTOGRAPHER TO EXHIBIT PORTRAITS.-The New York Woi'ld says: A case that is of interest to almost everybody-at least to those who think enough of their personal appearance to have themselves photographed-came up before Judge James W. Fowler, of the Third District Court, Friday morning. From tho evidence in the case, it seems that an artist named Carl Heoker took a photograph of a Mrs. Wilson, and kept the negative in his possession, as is the oastom among photographers. Not a great while after this, the husband of the lady was stopped in the street by a friend, who informed him that Heoker had a large painting of his wife on exhi? bition in his gallery, for business pur? poses. Becoming very much enraged at the artist's "impertinence," as he styled it, he at once repaired to his place of business, and after making sure that the beautiful painting of his wife, whioh was not yet removed from the artist's easel, bad been painted from her original pho? tograph, the infuriated husband at onoe said he would give the astonished artist jost live minutes to choose between re? moving the pioture at once or have it rent io a hundred ribbons. The artist at once said he would remove it to Mr. Wilson's residence, which he did. The artist's assignee now sues Mr. Wilson for 890, which amount he alleges Wilson agreed to pay for it. Aooording to Hecker'o story, Wilson, upon seeing the picture, offered him 390 for it, if he would but chango the expression of the mouth; bot in consequence of the illness of Mrs. Wilson, it had never been done. Still the pioture was in Mr. Wilson's pos? session. It seems there were two large paintings made-one taken for a lady friend, which was also in the house of Wilson-and in consequence the evi? dence of witnesses was decidedly mixed. The question, which has never before been raised-whether a person paying for a photograph has a right to the nega? tive, aud whether an artist who has un eye for tine features has a right, in case one of his customers happenu to bo a woman of peculiar beauty, to exeoute a large painting for business purposes was ono which Judge Fowler took under consideration. He reserved his decision, giving the counsel on either side the pri? vilege of submitting any briefs bearing upon the question. SINGULAR CATTLE DISEASE.-The farm? ers of Berks County, Pa., report a singu? lar disease among the oattle. Within a few weeks, a number have gone blind, some in one eye, but.most of them in both eyes. One farmer has twelve head, some entirely blind, and others partially so. One calf, at three days old, never out of the stable, lost its sight. On some farms two, three and four are vic? tims of the disease. The nerve of the eye seems to die from within, and the eye becomes white. Horses have thus far evoaped the ailliotion. # - THE CATERPILLARS TN FLORIDA.-Mr. P. B. H. Dudley, a successful and expe? rienced planter, writes from Archer, Alaobua County, one of the finest sea island cotton regions of East Florida, that the caterpillars have brought terrible havoc in the cotton fields, so that he doubts whether half a crop will be made. The New York Herald, of Saturday, reports "a further deoline of about one per cent, in the new South Carolinas, whioh securities were not favorably in? fluenced by the oharaoter of the conven? tion proceedings yesterday." A man has sued his barber for cutting off his moustache. The barber says ho didn't see it. The old-fashioned high Spanish oombs are reported to be coming into uso again. Action of the Democratic Stat? Elten tlve Committee. The Democratic State Executive Com? mittee, after a full and free conference, yesterday, adopted the following resolu? tions as embodying the policy, in their opinion, proper to be pursued by the Democracy of tho State iu the present canvass: Resolved, That in the present state of parties in South Caroliua, wo deem it unwise to nominate a Democratic State ticket, and decline, therefore, to call a convention of the people for that pur? pose. Resolved, That Laving adopted tho policy thus indicated, .we demand of the Republican party that they fulfill, iu good faith, their public pledges, and give to the State an able, honest and econo? mical government, under which extrava? gance and fraud shall cease, and all classes of citizens shall be faithfully aud intelligently represented. Resolved, That we now place ou record our unqualified condemnation of the cor? ruption and robbery whiob, as the Re? publicans themselves confess, pervade the executive and legislative depart? ments of the State Government; for whioh corruption and robbery the Re? publican party of this State, as sustained by the Federal GoverDmeot, is alone re? sponsible. Resolved, That wo deem it of the first importance that the Democratic party bo organized in the several Counties, for the purpose of obtaining, by snob means as may seem best, the largest measure of local und legislative reform. Resolved, That the Chairman of this Committee appoint, at his leisure, a Chairman for each County in the State, who shall carry out in the respective Counties the objects of the preceding resolutions. The following resolutiou was alao adopted : Resolved, That the members of thia Committee from the different Congres? sional Districts have authority to make arrangements for tho nomination of members to Congress for their respectivo Districts. AI. C. BUTLER. Ch'n Stale Democratic Ex. Com. Convention of tile Fourth CongreHaloiiul District. The undersigned, by direction of the State Democratio Executive Committee, request that tho Counties in the Fourth Congressional District, which have uot already elected their del?ga os, will hold County Conventions and elect delegates to the Democratio Couveutiou of thc Fourth Congressional District, to be held in Columbia, on Monday, Septem? ber 9, at 8 P. M., for tho purpose of nominating a candidate for Congress. Each County will eleot as many delegates as it has members in the lower house of the State Legislature. S. P. HAMILTON, W. D. SIMPSON, W. H. WALLACE. Memb's State Ex. Com., 4th Con. Dist. MB. EDITOH: On the night of the 19th, some of the young citizsDs were rather jubilant from having partaken too freely of refreshments at the Republican cau? cus. Being somewhat noisy and demon? strative on the street, they were accosted by a policeman, (Henry Goodwin,) who ordered them to appear at the Mayor's Court the next morning. As this was their first offence, his Honor discharged them, after hearing the case. On the same night, (the 19th.) this policeman was found by some of theao young men asleep on his post. They took from him his hat, belt, club, badge and handker? chief, withoat awakening him. Perhaps he, too, had attended that caucus. For this, he was arraigned before the Mayor, and fined 32.59. Policemen should be cautious how they rudely accost citizens for the same offence of whioh they them? selves are guilty. CITIZEN. A FEATCBE OF CITY LIFE.-A profes? sional gentleman, well known m this city, had not seen his son for a long period of timo, owing to the fact that the latter retired to bed ero the former returned home, and in tho morning the father always loft home before the son got out of bed. One morning tho lady of the house managed to got the father und son together at the breakfast table, and by way of a joke remarked: "Son, let mo introduce you to your father." "How do you do, father?" said the hope? ful. "I don't remember ever having met you before, but I have heard ma speak of you." When you meet old people who are sick, do your best to make them com? fortable. Tho London Era says: "Miss Edith Challis, a well-known actress in London and New York, while traveling some months since, was very attentive to an old lady, who fell ill on the journey and subsequently died. Las? week Miss Challis was greatly astonished at receiv? ing a letter from her executors, to the effeot that the kindness shown to the old lady had resulted in her being remem? bered in her will to the extent of a clear ?2,000 a year for life. In consequence of this she retires from the stage." Huxley truthfully says that "tho suc? cessful men of this world are not those who go off at full gallop, but, if I may use raoing phraseology, t li oso who 'stay.' It often happens that those whose early career is slower and gentler than those of others, exhibit a greater amonnt of mind, and tougher staying power, and come in at the winning-post at last." The manufacture of dolls' shoes has become quito a business within a few years past. A single concern in New York manufacture 50,000 pairs per an? num, using about 20,000 feet of morocco and sheep, mostly scraps, besides cutting considerable whole stock of all the fa? shionable colors. Do Witt Clintou will bo immortalized in a monument at Albany. 1 Many and wonderfal aro the myste? ries of palaces. The newspapers of Vienna relate how a sentry at the royal r?sidence saw a female figure, in a long white vail, issue from the apartment of the late Archduchess Sophia. Again and again the vision appeared and disap? peared, eluding the vigilance of the sen? try; but one night he came up with the specter and thrust his bayonet into his back. Then it turned out to be a beard? less young man, at first taken for a priest. He proved to be mortally wounded, and, what is remarkable is, that the soldier who killed him has been locked up in an isolated cell, while the court maintains rn absolute silence on the event. IK, INTO AND UNDER -Tho vexed question of tho proper mode of baptism was thus disposed of lately down South, by "Uncle Ciosar," a colored preaoher: "Now, breden,"said he, "I hear great foss about deso words in and into; and folks want us to believe dat dey mean under, and dat when de Scriptur' speaks of an individual going down into de water, dc Bible mean to say dat he went under do water. S'pose some day I goes ober to see Brudder Solomon, and Brud der Solomon wery politely say, 'Uncle Cicsar como into de house,' do anybody s'poHe dat dis nigger would 'jo under de house ?" A noted scold in Pennsylvania recent? ly received such appropriate punishment as that meted ont to Aunnuias and Sap? phira. She would invariably burst out into Zantippe violence, whenever an op? portunity offered. Ou a late occasion she began to scold ber husband so in? temperately that sbo dislocated her jaw and bas not been able to .speak B word since. Peace, for tho lirst time in ber domestic history, uow reigus in the household. A lady who recently got herself up most gorgeously for a diuuer ut ono of the Newport hotels, b&d the misfortune to sneeze just as she sat down, wheo suddenly tho half of the waist of her dress ripped ont, and somebody had to pul a shawl around her. Her dress was au excellent fit upon a well-proportioned form, and huviug been made upon a single-thread sewing machine, thesnoeze broke the thread. A grey bair was espied among the raven locks of a fair frieud by a lady. "Ob! pray pall it out," she exclaimed. "If I pull it out teu will come to the funeral," replied the lady who mado tho unwelcomo discovery. "Pluck it out, nevertheless," Baid the dark-haired dam? sel; "it's no sort of consequence how many come to tho funerul, provided all come ?D black." It has been tho popular notion in this country that shad could not bo induced to take a bait, and when captured it must be by the net in some form. A Connecticut fisherman has. however, discovered, after a series of experiments, that shad will bite at a peculiar kind of artificial fly, with which he has been very successful. That was a very touching incident that of the little school girl who refused to define the word clown SB "a low, vul? gar fellow," and for her stubbornness was punished with the ferrule and de? tained in play hours, all to no reforma? tory end. The little child's father proved to be a clown in a circus. An Ohio woman has recoverod 87,000 of a liquor dealer, under the new law in that State, for "the loss of her hue band's society for three years." This is putting a high figure upon a man's so? ciety, certainly, and many would be willing to dispose of their company fer a smaller sum. A meeting was held at Pomaria, S. C., on the 9th instant, to raise funds to erect a monument to the Confederate soldiers. Several hundred dollars were raised.

Mr. L. Carr sent us, yesterday, a few apples whioh had been baked by the sun. It is, of coarse, not nurprising, when we confider the excessive heat of the past fow days.

The Governor, yesterday, appointed John H. Schofield, of Greenville, Notary Public; A. J. Evans, of Orangeburg, Trial Justice. TUE HEAT.-There is no sign of any broaking up of the intense heat that has prevailed for nearly two weeks and at intervals through this summer. All the storms so far reported have been merely looal. Hurricanes of extraordinary vio? lence, accompanied by thunder and light? ning, have swept over portions of Massa? chusetts and New York. Sudden floods, but not more destructive than is usual at this season, have occurred at the West. We must wait, with what patience we can, for the welcome sign of the ther? mometer down again among the seven? ties-a consummation for some time de? voutly wished, aud whioh cannot now be long delayed. PHOENIX HOOK AND LADDER COMPANV. This Company held a regular meeting last night. A letter from the builder was received, stating that the truck wae ready to be shipped. ? telegram wae also received, stating that the truok would he shipped on Saturday next. A committee of the Company will proceed to Charleston, next Monday evening, tc take oharge of the apparatus there. Thc Company will parade on next Thursday to escort tho truok from the depot to thc house. We are infoimed that a large amount of the subscriptions are yet un paid, and that the Company is desiroui that our citizens will respond withoul delay. PHOCNIXIAXA.-Hard to beat-A boilec egu.

GREAT EASTERN MENAGERIE, MUSEUM ANS CIRCUS.-This colossal and popular establishment, the largest, we believe, in the country, is wending its way in this direction, and will play in Columbia, giving three exhibitions, on Wednesday, September ll. No institution on the road has ever given, or can give, tho im? mense amount of satisfaction that the Great Eastern does. The fact alone that it spreads three aores of tents, six in number, is evidence sufficient of its gi? gantic proportions; but when we remem? ber that these immense pavilions are well Ulled with moral and instructive amuse? ment, then some idea of the grandness of this affair can be formed. Six tents will furnish just six limes the amount of amusement we generally get, besides affording capacity abundant for all who wish to go, thus obviating the terrible jam and crush usually occurring at such places. To tell the wonders of the zoo? logical, and ornithological, and curious collections, would take more space than we can allow. The well paid and trusted agents of this great show have explored every land where startling attruotions can be found, and secured everything worth purchase, regardless of cost. The jangles of India, the forests of Africa, the sand deserts of Arabia, the palace pens of Egypt, have all given np their natural treasures to make complete the elegant menagerie, caravan and hippo? drome of the Great Eastern. The dou? ble circuB performance by a renowned double troupe of acrobats, gymnasts, equestrians, voltiguer?, posturers and clowns, at the samo hour, in separate tents, strikes us as bomethiog new and startling in the annals of the arena. The separate orchestra, brass bands and corps of performers ara all complete. We look for an immense outpouring of the people. Messrs. W. W. Durand and Scott, the popular agents, were in this city, yesterday, making the necessary ar? rangements for the mammoth show. TARTON'S LIFE OF GREELEY.-This is one of the most notable books of the times, and decidedly one of the best written and remarkably interesting of American biographies. "We do not pro? pose to review it from a political stand? point, for it is not designed ns a mere campaign book, but a work of standard value, from the pen of a writer of estab? lished reputation, whose biographies of all eminent Americans are well known and highly valued. Mr. Parton's writ- ' inga are all attractive on account of the oare he exercises in collecting incidents, and the ingenuity with which he weaves them into the story of a life, to relieve the tedium of dry faets and monotonous narrations. Such a work cannot be re? viewed in the compass of an ordinary book notice, and it is therefore best to simply inform the reader, that it was commenced several years ago, before Mr. Greeley was thought of as a Presidential oandidate, and faithfully written as one volume in the series of Parton's biogra? phies, simply for its general interest and intimate connection with the history of the country, for near half a century. Commencing with his birth, and follow? ing him through all the vicissitudes of early years of trial and adversity, the Behool which developed the wonderful power that marks his riper years, and carried him forward to the time when the people honored him with the nomination for the highest place in our land. Not written in the interest of party, it is a full and impartial history, entirely free from partisan bias, and worthy a place in every library in the land. As a book of reference, a guide to young men and an incentive to renewed activity for every aspiring mind. The volume is a large duodeoimo, elegantly bohnd and appropriately illustrated, and is Bold through the canvassing agenta of the National Publishing Company, Atlanta. All things considered, and all political predilections aside, it appears to na one of tho best and most generally desirable hooks of the year. LIST OF NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. W. W.
