Our Merchants.?The merchants J
f ..aiiuinn ! Iirt most />fllpr- !
pricing and public spirited in our south ra
country. A call upon litem on be- !
half of my worthy object never passes
unhesdcd. This has been proved in , 1
sn eminent degree not only daring the |(
trying campaign of 1876, but also on;
many other occasions. As evidence of "
thrir enterprise, it is but necessary to 1
mention the many stores which are '
kept constantly filled with seasonable j 1
goods of all kinds at the lowest prices, j *
and to state another fact, vi*.: That1
Camden is the best interior market for j
cotton in the South. Who says there j
is no enterprise in old Camdeu ? j ^
A Dastardly Thick?One might ji
recently, while a few guests wero cn- r
gaged in pleasant courersation with t
Mr. George Aldcn and family at their t
home, some miscreant, utterly lost to
' very elevating influence, found enjoyment
for a moment, in seeing how well }
iie could strike the front door of Mr (
AlJen's residence with tiling-shots. I
Five shot took effect?four lodging in 1
or breaking costly glass about lb.'door. J
a?il one penetrating tho green-boose, {
One shot?an ordinary size buckshot?
wts found, and from that it was inferred
that the siimr-shot or 'bean-shooter' was
used. Such conduct cannot be too severely
condemned, and the Town Council
should adopt stringent measures to pre*
vent the use of such things.

Independent Candidates.?Mur- I
ray, of the Anderson Intelligencer, d>es
not take much stock iu independent f
candidates. Ilcar liiur: |
An independent candidate in the com- 1
ing canvass, is a mau who is indepeii- '
dent of any principle? ?r, in o'h-r '
words, he has no principle. Kortu lati.y \
for the good of our County and State, J
the Dcm 'craiic party of this County in :
independent of such unprincipled hu- '
man scum."
And ngain :
? _ i
"The uian who runs as an independent
candidate this year docs so becausj ho
cannot get the endorsement of the good
people of the County, and because his
desire for office is greater than his 8'df
respect or his patriotism. He is a first- J
class hypocrite, and is unwoitliy to bo (
trusted in any position.

I Odd Fellowship is a moral, not a religious

of human suffering. It does not array itself
against the Church?its lodges are not
the council rooms of enmity to rel'gious,

otherwise. A'l its ericles and instructions i
on these subjects, find their warrant and

and strife in the outer world, are left out.
side of the ante-room. The members meet
as a band of brothers, not as a political
banditti, and discussions foreign to the interests
nnd purpose of the assemblage is
entirely inadmissible. <
As a marked instance of freedom from (
all sectional strife and animosity among
Odd Fallows who fully appreciate the spirit 1
of the Or ler, may he mentioned this fact :
That is the Grand Lodge of the United
Statss, during its several years of meeting,
when the entire country wan convulsed, (
the acals of the whole delegations from the
sixteen seceding States were left vacant,
uot one liaing occupied by representatives
frotn the non-scceding States. They were ,
held in trust for the absent brethren when
' grim vissged war should have smoothed I
his wrinkled front," and the absent brothera
were ready to enter into the fold again.
The first who resumed his seat in the Grand
Lodge, after the war, was representative j
Glen, of Georgia, and frotn the hearty, i
brotherly welcome given him, he taid he
was at once reconstructed.
One of tiie chief ends and aims of the
Orderis to allay human suffering: it, there- ,
fore, war? against vice in all its foims? '
intemperance, that "gigantic crime of
crimes." is condemned by the entire spirit,
if not hy the direct letter of the laws of
the order ?if a member so far forgets bis 1
duty to hi * Go I. Ins country, to bis family 1
