The fir* days proceedings were devoted tc organization and Edward McPherson o Pennsylvania was chosen president Spencer and his crowd were ousted their opponents being ndmltlcd. Gov Clmmberlain was put on th<3 commit te on resolutions and our townsman Lt. Gov Glcavos, was made a vino president. Th second day was devoted to speech mak iug, the nominations, find the adoptioi of the platform. The platform opens with congratuln lions on the part of the Republican party, since, under Providence, it wa called upon to purge the country o slavery and establish a government b the people and for the people. It dc clares that the tnited States is nation, not a league, and the Rcpublica p{-riy is the defender of popular govern njent. It proceeds to Btate in detail th duties of the party, via: Protection c our citizeus everywhere; a steady pre grcae to specie payment, senators am representatives should not dicta t appointments; fitness and capacity to b passports to office, und its maintcnanct unfaithful officers to be swiftly punished tecoinmcnds a constiutional aracndmeu against appropriations for schools unde sectarian control. It reaffirms opposi lion to further grants of lands tor rail road purposes; asserts the duty t protect immigration; suggests a vcr moderate resolution relative to an it . quiry into the effect ot Mongolia immigration on moral and politic! grounds; favcr3 a respectful considers liou of woman's claims to participatioi iu the government; reaffirms tho d uty o suppressing polygamy; the duty to th soldiers is recognized and sectiona strife is deprecated. Jt arraigns ill Democratic party as the same in char actcr and spirit now as when it sympn fbized with and was allied to treason and accuses it of being unwortli; ami] incapable. It declarei that Gran deserves the continued gratitud ai the people for bis patriotism anc services; and there shall be 110 mor popf ponemcnt of specie resumption. O11 Friday the first business was ti ballot for candidates. Blaine as wa t xpccted received tbe largest vote of an; candidate, Morton next. Blaine's friend worked bard but it was evident that tb adherents of tlie other candidates wer aot disposed to support liiui when tb men of their choice should be dropped fll* ballots were had when Blaine hrn WS, the highest un to the time. Bristol Ill, Conkling 82, Ilays 113, and th ros4 scattering. Ou the seventh ballc Morton's name was withdrawn and tli vote concenrrated on nays end Blain and resulted in Blaine 851, Hays 38aud Bristow 21. As 379 was a majont the nomination ot Mr. Hays was mad trounimoas. William A. Wheeler c Hew York was then nomiated for vie president. The vote of the South Ca; olina delegation was cast for Morto with one exception, which was for Bris tow, nntil the final vote when it cas seven for Blaine and seven for th successful candidate. Hulherfoid B. Hays of Ohio, th Republican candidate for Presiden Is fifty four years of age, was born i Delaware Ohio, and graduated at Ken yon College, and afterward attended th Cambridge Law school. He serve* thrt mglt the war, entering the army a major and left it n major-general. H baa been a member of Congress tw< . terms and has been three times electe< Governor of his native state. He is i man ot ability and integrity and siiouh fee be elected will make a good president M. Hays will doubtless poll as large i rote as cither Biame, Mortou or Coukling and his opponents claim that ho can b beaten much ensi-r than Bristow. \\ itl the nomination of Hays-and Whcele the Republicans expect to secure tb electoral vote Ohio jind New York,-bu should Tilden be nominated at St. Loui he would carry New Yo*k by sevent, five thousand at least, and his populurit would no doubt secure for the Dcmocrnc Connecticut, Indiana and other state that are called doubtful. With a soli* Southern vote for the Democracy am New York, Connecticut and Indiana, thei aoccess ie almost assured and with cithe Tildcn or Hancock as their standari K-nrers the Democracy feel conldeat of victory.

' Port Royal as u roul Depot. 6 For several months Mr. D. C. Wilson receiver of the Port Royal Railroad, ha 0 been trying to secure the establishmen s of a coal depot at Port Royal, and t< y haT? the government make a thorough 8 test of some Georgia coal that has beei e on hand fot that purpose. Mr. \\ llso: e claims that bituminous coal equa' if not s <* perior to that now in U6c by the navy car L- be furnished at Port Royal and at n lowe ^ figure than it can be brought from th * North for. When in Washington a fei e dajB ago he secured the necessary ordei for a board of engineers to make ?he tea e and tl?e work began last Wedncsda; e and was concluded on Friday. The coal used to make the test cam J from Dade county Georgia and was take ? from mines owned by cx-Gov. Browi The board of 'engineers consisted ( Chiefs King ot the Dictator, McNear r* of theAjas and Hams of the Plymor.tl n The Plyinout'i was especially assigne >* for this duty, her machinery being be^ t adapted for making the tC3t. It was at tin ? intended to run to Charleston under tli steam from the Georgia coal but atelegrai ? hiforuied them that the Plymouth coui '? not get over the bar owing to her heav n draft, 17 tcct, until the high tides abot - the 21st, so she was made fast to tli e wharf at Port Royal and during th ^ sixty hours of the experiment she di< 9 her# Ij^st to try the firmness ot tba ? structure. The coal was brought along Q side in the railroad c irs to within twent 1 fitot of (ha alaamaa ... la ? - e 1 .vw v* ?uw oictiuivi tTiivu it w 119 unrciun B weighed. After passing through th * furnaccB the ashes were all weighed am t. noted down to see how much stenr B producing coal is consumed to gcuerst a certain amount of steam. J The final decision of the engineer li will not be known until it has passci r through the proper channels but fror ? what we cor. lenrn the officers are mud t pleased with the coal and will repoit o * it very favorably . If this c?nl shout y be adopted by the government the Por y Royal Railroad wi^ll reap a harvest fror y it in the way of freights and more dock * would have to be built for its nceomino 3 dationat Port Rovul. Vessels drawini ] If feet could steam up to within 20 feet o r the cars so that the expense of lmudlinj r would be trifling. inn bvunri TliKASHRKfl. The court house was crowded Fnda; morning with our citizens anxious t know the result of the cases again* - George Holmes, county treasurer. Th I first case called was tor lulling to mak t monthly reports of school funds. Mi t Holmes was represented by W n. Elliot n Esq.' and Jos. W. Moore Esq., and th [ State "tl?y the Attorney G-.-niral. M: Ii Holme's counsel claimed that the indict-j r ment on the charge for failing to make j el reports did not assert, nor tho proscy | cation offer to prove, that during the 1 i, time for which the report was called for l,j there were any receipts or disbursements t and that the law required tl.c treasurer t, to report only when there were such; e receipts and disbursements. His Honor J ;s said that the presumption was that there h I were receipts and the inference wus that I I in failing to report tlie treasurer was ! attempting to conceal the facts, but His i >- Honor did not consider it the duty of the j h I treasurer to make such reports if there c j were no receipts nor disbursements and us i. this fact was not shown lie ordered the i-1 indictment quashed. Ilojtbought a civil 1 I j suit would have been preferable, and a ' 3, i mandamus the proper way to obtain the I- report. i e ! The second charge against Mr. Holmes ^ o | was for buying Teuchcis Pay certficatcsnt . e | a discount. Mr. Elliott moved to quash i- this indictment as llie law was not literally J e : quoted and that the certificate was issued e in 1873 subsequent to the passage of an yj act requiring all the trustees to sign a > el teachers certificate while the one in 8 | question was signed only by the clerk of the board and therefore the certificate '81 was illegal and no olfensc was committed . e ! by its purchase. His Honor decided that h I -..ii! "i nit v.uuiiuiiiu nut ui'iug signed i>y tue r> j whole board of trustees was an illegal ?t | draft and no better than waste paper and A j therefore no offense could be charged by o i the purchase, and if the treasurer had i-1 paid any such certificate out of money 1 e in the treasury he could be sued for its ( d I return as having been illegally paid. 1 11 On these grounds he ordered this indictt ment quashed. i, 'l'lie third indictment was for the tmd proper disbursement of school funds, or n rather the payment of money on improper vouchers. Mr. Elliott argued tliat this ( le indictment was void as it did not state t- the persons to whom the money hud s been paid, the school district fur which 0 1 drawn, on what account, nor whether for d ' s rviccs as teacher or some other service, it The Attorney General did not d consider it necessary to give the name >t of the payee but it rested with the prose- , cution only to show that tlio money had ( '3 been improperly expended and the ^ 11 defendant would be liable and if the ^ 1 money had been paid out on an improper ^ r voucher it bad not in fact been paid out j c at all but still remained in the treasury, j > Judge Maher decided that the money was j i {3ti!I virtually in the treasury and that e ilic illegal vouclurs could not be consid- ' r i as valid and tli <t the money was still i subject to the payment of certificates, and ^ > that the tr-asirrcrs bonds were liable for such payments. The indictment was * thereto c quashed. Theio was one more indictment against j, | Mr. Holmes, the n ost serious of all, that t of paying money of one ti seat year for * , indebtedness contracted in another fiscal | ( year, but owing to the alyjencc of an ini f 1 portant witness the case was postponed! n to the October tcim. And this ended, ai | 1 u least for the present, the case of George j 1 j H< lines, treasurer. i 1 ,r The case against the county coinniis- J 1 sioncrs indicted for paying n bill not ; j . i cmized, was then called, and after a ,s short trial was given to the jury who t returned a verdict of not guilty. k y T. McCants Stewart is nu ardent supporter of Gov. Chamberlain far ru-elcc- ] c lion. He says in a letter "I ain of those n who believe that he has borne aloft the J. republican banner of reform through ( ,f day-light and through darkness,through sun shine and through storm, "high above all danger and dishonor," and that to-day it floats in his grasp over acorn- J d moi.wealth partially relieved of the pub it lie contempt and bitter scorn in which 2111 inHicrnnnf nufimx ' *- *?> " ......W.I ..U.ll 11/ 111 ion. n ?
