Pope Pius the Ninth, the two litiu- j
dred and fifty sixth successor of St.;
Peter, closed his long and eventful life .
on the evening of the 7th instant, in
the SGth, jcar of his ape and the 3l2nd '
year of his reign. His decease was not j
unexpected, aud arrangements have been ,
made to choose his successor.

The Executive Committee.
At the meeting of the Democratic
Executive Committee, at the Wheeler
*" ^ An TlnirpJ'ir nitsllf

den. J. D. Kennedy was elected perina-!
nent Chairman, and important steps
taken, looking to tnc thorough organization
of the party for the next campaign.
A fall report oi the ptoceeuings of the
Committee has not yet been received by
u.?, but will appear in our next issue
Primary Elections.
The subject of primary elections for
the nomination of candidates for office1
at the next election is engaging tins at- j
tention of those who have been obser-;
ving the course of event4, and who have
not failed to discover that the Demo- j
orats will have to work early and late!
if they would retain profession of the
State government after thisjear.
In many respects we regard the coming
contest as more serious and of
greater importance than that of 1S7G.
We were then out of power, and by the
force of oppression were joined together
in one compact organization fur one
common purpose? the defeat of the
Iiadical party and the consequent redemption
of the State. And the enemy
was powerful aud defiant, and we knew
where and how to fight him. Now,
however, the circumstances nro different,
Though Chamberlain, Whitemore,
Cass Carpenter, Patterson, Paiker and
many other villains of the Gr>t grade
are to be counted out of tl.c contest,
the Radicals arc still strong i:i unscrupulous
lovdcrs'and voters, and arc moving
stealthily to accomplish our overthrow.
They are not only perfecting
the organization of their party for this
purpose, but it is hinted tiiat they ore
expecting aid and comfort from certain
quasi-Democrats, whose greed for office
is greater than their love of country.
On the other hand, how is with in the
Democratic party ? One does not haveto
tax his powers of observation very
much to perceive that the thorough organization
and perfect discipline of
ISTtJ is wanting?that divi-ions and
dissensions resulting in a greater or less
degree frou: the workings of office seeking
politicians, have sprung up in our
ranks?and that we are going to be
defeated in November, un'os we exercise
(lie jireatcf-t caution and foresight
in planning the campaign. To triumph;
it wiil be necessary to jut forth our
full strength at the j>olls; and to do this,
there must be the utmost harmony ofac.
-? tion and unity of purpose in our party.
IIow to secure this harmony and unity is
jLL question to be considered. Whatever the
plan will procure the nomination of:
candidates acceptable to the largest j
number of voters, is the one which should
k be adopted. And this can be attained
^ in no way so cfT? ctually as by primary1
elections for members of the legislature '
"V*-- and county officers. A convention)
may do its work ever so faithfully and
well, but the defeat of candidates will
often chill the ardor of their friends,
and it will in some instances ho whin-;
t pered that the convention wag "captured"
or 4 bought up." In primary
elections nothing of this kind ever occurs.
Every man votes for whom he
pleases, and only the strongest men? '
those who will lead to victory?are
I id rittr Iloitin/trfiltft frinnrlu I
llUIUlllUlbU. begin
to consider this matter, fi-r as
surely as the sun shines we will have to
to win Alter ihe election in November
I we may judge of our right the State
govern by the manner in which we have
a retained the power which we now have.'
Th? Legislature.
Though they arc not to be classed as
chronic fault-finders, many intelligent
and thoughtful people in this soetion
ave beginning to think that it is about
time f>r the Legislature to do some- j
tiling, or adjourn forthwith and go'
home. Xeaily three months, at five
doll irs p'T day lor each member, have
been consumed, and nothing lias been
done tli.it might not have been accoui-j
piiihed in three weeks. And jet tlie '
^ most important matter?the debtrjues- |
tion?lias not been touched. Abun- <
I dint tine has b* on had for the expnU ,
s'on of whatever superfluous oris tho i
various members had on hand when '
tlie Legislature convened, and a n otion
to go hot earnestly to work would be '
in order. The sudden stopping of safe- |
fv valves would precipitate but few ex- 1
, plosions.

leport of the Bond Commission, jio
The Commission, consisting of Sena-1 (j
ors li. A. Mcctzc, I. I>. Witherspoon ! in
uid W. A. Walker, and of Represent a-!"'
ives J. A. Bamberg, J. (J. Coit,?II. A. Jcr
Shaw and William iiood, and appointed
to investigate the bonded debt of the I p
State, submitted their report on Thurs-!0
day. The report is very voluminous.',,
and covers the whole ground, showing ; j1
that the commission have been faithful jv
in tha discharge of a most difficult and r
important duty. It shows that the j')
amount of Consolidation Bonds out J
standing is $1,.'IMG,290, which agrees
with the report of Comptroller-Gencrai
Ilagood, which wc published last week. {
The Commission fiud that, of this j
amount, bonds amounting to SI,GOO,000
arc undoubtedly valid. They urge
souse objection to tiic remainder because (
of tlie character of the vouehcts, hut
show that no forged or duplicate Consul
iuution bonds have been issued,.and say 1
I
that "all the Consolidation bonds, coupons
and certificates of stock produced
beforo the Commission bare been issued ;
in proper form," except the amount of.'

Mako Them Known.
Mr. II. 15. Rhctt. member from
j J
Charleston, moved recently in the llouse j
of Il'-presentatives that all of the testimony
taken before '.lie Investigating
Committee Le published. It was intended
to show by publishing the testi- ;
uionv, just who have been engaged in j
plundering the Slate. It was opposed,
j however, and killed upon the ground 1
that it would reveal too much to parties
against whom proceedings will be intituled.
There are, nevertheless, some
people who think t!ie rep art ought 10 '
have been adopted, that the people
might know who the Democrats arc
that have been too intimately associated
with the corrupt Radicals.

| Corbiu.
The Senate Committee, appointed to
j investigate Corbiti, have submitted their
report. They find that lie bought his so
called election to the I". S. Senate, and
recommend that the Attorney General;
institute against liiut such proceedings j
as may be proper. I

Tho fitato Debt. j i
We were nmotij; those who favored u '1
thorough overhauling of tint State debt;
but, after reading the series of articles
un ihe subject which appeared recently t
in the Charleston <imf ('oitriif(
I
we arc convinced that the honor and '
interests of the Stat ? ri quire that the-1
adjustment of the debt, as accomplished .
under the consolidation act of In"". |
should be accepted by the Democratic;
party. Our contemporary, in its issue J
of the 6th instant, foriiiu'ntrs the whole
question in the following maucer:
Tin- Uenerul Assembly will soon l.e en- i
gaged in considering the rejort and re-it
coioinendations of (be Itond Commission.).
There is infinite danger in dalliance or do- i
lay. The (acneral Assmhly must, so far us
lies within its nulhoriiy. determine ihe 1
volume and character <d' ihe public debt a' I
(lie present session. And rarely has any 1
legislative body had such ail opportunity
lo distinguish itsef for patriotism, and for j
a regard for the highest interests of the ;
people, as is now within the grasp of tuc:Oeneral
Assembly. : t
