. . MEMORIAL DAT.
Hoaday next the 12th tart, bu bm fixed
up^/w ??Memorial Day," to celebrate by
all tha mcau we hare, the memory of these
brare act, who Ml for a cause we lore and
venerate. It wattw little to (km now, '
what we may do. They have their reward,
their wan are ended. But It dee* matter a
great'deal to thoee of ua who are left be
hind^ aad to theae who are to come after u,
that ?*the earliest floorers of Spring )he green
est laurels that our woods may bring" should
dock their graree in beart-felt appreciation
of all they did for us.
Death makes sacred and eaabahas {hearer
the associations connected with that pact. In
"hichtbey lirod and yielded their young
lives to a sense of daty, and we bat honor
ourselves, in honoring them. It ie some
thing to got rid of the |elfl?h struggles of
every day life, and make a sabbath of a day
- like (bis^to gire our anbought tribute te
n*he devotion o f theee brsre men, many of
them poor and simple, who like sosae knight
of an old^p time, went forth eimply to'do
th%^r "deeof'r," their doty as our men would
havo called it, without hope of adrsnoement
or reward, cxcept that of honor.
No soUUyry that ever lived excelled our
oWd in this recognition of individual charac
ter j?t no one then refas^e avail them
f selvc? of the opportunity, that oar ladiss
have so earnestly and beautifully offered
them, lo j?y this tribute; bat for once re
member, "that man does not lire by bread
alone," that there is a higher plane of life,
where we are not forced to breathe the sord
id, if nrceAiury, atmosphere of oar working
day existence, but by the noble associations
of great and pious memories purify oar own
souls.
Some of our people have exhibited an
apathy about this, that is to us surprising.
It has arisen from a want ofthat recognition,
of no much that lies beneath the surfkee'
that makes life rich and worth the baring.
Lives of great men all remind as
We can make oar lires sublime,
And departing, leave behind as.
Footprints on the sands of time.
HAY DAY IS CAMDEK.

<? The morning vac glorious, and bright

Pl?y?l the sunshine and dew-drops, the
bird* and the breese,

On the Up of the year, Mt Uauttful May.
How well theae line* describe the morn
in^of the first day "of the month oftowers"
iu Camden, those who wore present, and
hare any appreciation of a day "so
pure, eo bright?* bridal of the earth1
sky," can well attest. The contrast

forward to the Amn l
by Uie Sunday ftchool of the Metk
ist Church; 4o'which had been invited ths
. J^fcchers and scholars of the schools af the
* several other denominations in Camdoa.
At an early hour on the first of May the
larger number of the scholars, with their
friends, asseasbkod at the Methodlat Church,
whence they proceeded in various vehielss
to the grounda of Capt. Adam Teams, one
and a half sailse from ^own. The pro e seat on,
of soma In sen or twenty oonvsyanoes, was
proceeded by a oompany af young gentlemen
connected with the t'*Cnmdcn Cornet Band,"
(lisoewjning sweet ninaie as they rode through
vthe street. For an hovr after the main body
of pleasure-seekers had "gone a Maying."
the street were occasionally enlivened by
later visitors to the fm^i scene. It was a
' (ratifying toml*<nt la tie celebration of tk?
flmt'day of the merry month of May, for her
wershippers to realise the fart that, for one
day at leaat, the differences of/miM were laid
aside, and wherever the (asar*s eyes were
?turned naught hut peace, plenty. Wee and
harmony preTaflcd: WkHe all uniting In
the', wild Joy of jourft enthusiasm, testified
their appreciation of beautiful May,^wa

THE COMiyO MAM.
T? political swtlooh k to saj tke least,
not my encouraging. Candidates are loesa
i?f tp in almost countless array, end tke
campaign may be considered as thirty be
gun. 80 far, ex-attorney gsmial Chsm
berlala aad ex-governor Scott are akead la
tke race for tke nomination for gnkernatori
al k on ore. U is understood aad believed
that oae of tko two ssentieaed above vtU be
tke ring nominee, bat which one Is uncer
tain. Senator Eoktrisis la also alluded le
as tke coming man, but k la doubtful if ke
can be Induced to give up kie present posi
tion for any gift wkick might be proffered.
Attorney-general Melton staa<ls some
chance, but Is not in tko Ibre-ground.
Upon tke whole, it Is not yet dear who
holds tke strongest attitude in tke direction
of the gubernatorial chair, but It is concedcd
on all sides that the nominee of the conven
tion will not be saoh aa one as will be accept
able to the masses of thoee who desire an
honest admiaistratien,fwitbout regard to par
ty foaling. In this connectioa, we subjoin
an extract from a letter to tke Augusta Cb*
Mihtliomafiti, written by a Columbia Repub
lican. Here what he has to say :
"The report has spread like wild-fire
amongst tke Radicals, that Moses is making
tkreats to turn ths State over to the Democ
racy in the next election. Mosee declares
that if he is defeated ia the convention, no
Republican need hope to carry the Stats. Re
appointing Democratic election commission
er* In each of the Counties, a foir election
oould easily h* held, which would result in
a sweeping Democratic victory. Moses has
a fine house, costly fbrniture, etc., but no
money, and he has no Idea of going out of
office now. A purse ef $80,000, raised by
the Democracy and presented to him, would
do the work. Why not buy a governor, who
offers himself for sale, as well as a mule or a
horee ? At all events, may of tko lending
Radicals are becoming soared, and you need
not be surprised if tke Legislature assembles
to impeach him at an early day, as there
was no adjournment mtu die, and tkey can
assemble on atwo thirds null of both houses."

to tolemte apreed-eagle resolutions and
speeches oa matters which do not concern
tbo American people, which they do not un
derstand, and over whieh the Amsriosu Gov

in Congress should aot be pcraaiited by their

inaugurated by Secretary Fish aad Admiral
Polo, of the questions at issoe between the

The debate in Congress on the Louisiana
bill baa helped oa the good work, and im
