Frimary Elections.
The subject of primary elections has
been pretty generally discussed by the
press of the State, and in evrry county,
when the question has been submitted,
they have been agreed upon as the most
satisfactory and best mode of making
nominations for county officers and
members of the Legislature. Conventions
generally do their wot k well, but
they do not always make up the best
and most available tickets. Situated as
the Democratic party of Kershaw county
is at the present time, it is not merely
advisable, but absolutely necessary that
the nominations for public officers be
such as will give satisfaction to the
party, draw the voters from their homes
on ?he day of election, and result in
the comoletc redemption of our county.
i i
In no way can all of this be accomplished
fo effectually as through the instrumentality
of primary elections. Every voter
would then have an opportunity to indicate
his choice for every officer from
State Senator down to coroner. We
believe that the most representative
plan is the best. The convention, to
meet on the 24th, of April, will probably
decide in favor of or against primary
elections. If they are agreed up
on, the Convention will also arrange a
p'an by which they can be conducted,
the votes counted, and the result declared.
With nominations by the peo
pie, our victory is assured.
Justice in South Carolina.
Our readers will remember that, some
time since, a petition for the pardon of
that notorious villain, L. Cass Carpcn*
ter, was circulated by his wife among
the members of the legislature?Gen.
Gary, as was said, even carrying the
paper arouod forher-nearly all of whom
signed it, the plea being that the unfo-tunate
man wag broken in health
and his family utterly without the
means of support. The petition was
also signed by many other leading De
J fTnmrttnn fie
iHOcrats. ana uuvunui uauiptvu, ?
any other man would do, pardoned hiui.
If any one wishes to know how the
wretch regards the kiodne.-s shown,
read the evidence of his ingratitude in
the following lines, which arc taken
from the Philadelphia Timrt :
Was'QIngton, April 1.?Kx-llcprc?
tentative L. Cass Carpenter, r?f South
Carolina, who was in prison in (Columbia
for over three months, convicted for preaeuting
fraudulent claiui" for printing
aud advertising against the S'afe, arrived
here on 1 hursduy, having been pardoned
by Governor Hampton, lie says
there is no protection in South Carolina,
and thai if the colored Representative,
Smalls, Senator Patterson orcx-Govcmor
Chamberlain ever go to that State again
they will certainly be s- nt to the penitentiary.
He says Patterson is still
tinder right indictments, mostly for
bribery, and that if tsnia'la uo?s n??i return
and stand his trial ho must forfeit
his 810,000 bonds. He thinks Senator
Dueler has b< cn ??f no si rriee to Pattert>->n,
and that Duller and Hampton arc
not as fricndlv as formerly, and therefore
lJutlcr will not be able to help Patterson
in the future. He does not think
Patterson will ever return to South Carolina.
According to Carpenter, Senator
Patterson still adhere* to liutlcr, and
says he will vote forPutler as against the
claims of Corlin to a neat tn the Seuate.
Carpenter says that every juryman who
convicted him offered to indorse his application
for pardon, and thut two jurymen
made affidavit that they voted tr
convict him, believing th< i>- lives would
not have been safe otherwise. He said
he never applied for a pardon or allowed
his friends to do so for him.
Tho Columbia Election.
The result of the election for uiunici
j>d officers of the city of Col urn lia on tin
first of this month must send a thrill ol
joy throughout the entire Slate. Tin
entire Democratic ticket, with that old
Ilomao, Capt. W. 11. Stanley, at its head
was elected. Organization did thi
work. ^
Ijg v - Refuses to Assign Counsel.
Persons, who have been much abou
Couit Houses during tho last few years
must have observed the l;.ge number o
parties who are defended gratuitously
by counsel assigned them by the Court
Judge Iludsou takes the proper view o
the subject, as will appear from the fol
lowing extract from the Voikvillo A'/i
q Hirer :
Judge Hudson pen ruptorily decline.*
to as.-igo counsel to defend person
charged with crime of less degree thar
capital o fir uses. This course, which
by the way, has a precedent in the ac
tion of Judge Mackcy at the last fern
Ire presided here, will have a happy
effect in checking crime in the future
Heretofore, petty crimes have b?*ei
committed almost with impunity, tin
perpetrators being assured in ndvuncc
by the repuinMou of Sheriff (ib-wi as i
dieter, that they would he we'l fid anr
cared for, and when the time for tria
arrived, able counsel wouid he assignee
them, and they would stand, in a r<a
sonable degree, a chance cf actjuittr.1
Such will not bo the case hereafter. S<-\
is the inle applied to colored prisoner*
alone. Id the case of tho State apain>-l
31 ill wood, a while man, who was with*
out couofel, the Jildgv plainly anooun*
cod tliut it was not in the province of
(lie court to assign counsel; that lie
had uo more authority to direct a lawyer
to defend him than to command a [
farmer to donate him u quantity of corn.
Aside Irotn the salutary effect which
will follow this ruling, it will also be a
relief to the members of the bar.
Cotton Mills.
We extract from Speight's Daily
XncfjjajHr :hc following concerning;
the Cautpcrdown factory, which .-hows j
what cotton mills can do in tho South : '
I'pon inquiry wo found that the com- j
sumption of the factory was about 15 i
bales per day. This raw matciial was j
increased in value by being iimnnfic-'
turcd some two to three-fold That is 1
to say after being spun the product !
amounted to some 30 to 40 bales in j
lvalue. Tlius shipping fur any day's j
| work what amounted to the cotton yield
of three or lour ordinary farms and of
soate 1,000 to 1,200 farms annually.
The manufactures consist entirely of
yarns, mostly of fine numbers, being up
to o0.
The horse power of this factory perhaps
averages two hundred with ordinary
head of water. Two auxiliary steam
engines arc employed with one hundred
and fifty horse power. Fifteen hundred
cords of wood are annually consumed.
The factory employs some two
hundred hands, and it is estimated furnishes
the support of some four hundred
persons.
Several thousand dollars is paid to
employees every month, thus putting
that macli money in circulation.
All the yarns are sold North, and
owing to their fineness and regularity,
for they are beautiful, they find a ready
Sale.
Supposing that Greenville County
produces 5.000 bales, Camperdown, by
her busy spindle9, turns them into what
iserjual to 15,000 to 20,000 hales, for
which so much money or money's value
is returned.'

t something of what we saw while there.
c First of all we must, admit that we
I have never before had the good fortune
' of meeting with n more clever, social
r and hospitable set of people than we
c found there. The farmers were all
0 busily engaged planting, and everything
moving on finely. We were pleased
to find that the farmers in that section
p have adopted that only wise and sucV
cessful phtn. that small farms and dorn??
v tic fertilizers pay best. We were told
that there wa? by far a larger acreage of
grain planted there thiss"?son than ever

. aroused and taking active parts in the
grand and noble cause of education?

The Work of Ihe legislature,
Mil. KlUTOa?The J.egi-laturc has
adjourned. The public arc dissatisfied
with the re-'u't of their labors. Sufficient
allowance is not mode f>?r difficulties
they had to contend with. One treat
complaint is, their failure to reduce the l
number of offices. The County Commissioners,
School Commissioner. Auditor
and Treasurer am all new and
salaried offices. Can they he abolished
without a change in the Constitution of
the State ? Are there not within our
party a large number of men willing to
accept these offices and perq nisi tea ? Is
it n t a fact that the pressure of officeseekers
was as embarrassing to our
Legislators as was the opposition or
antagonism of the Radical party? Our
Legislature, at its list scssirn, has done
much for the public good, and yet much
remains to be done. They have given
us Judges that we arc not ashaiucd or
afraid of; they have materially reduced
I our taxes; they have settled the (juesiion
of the public dtbt ir. a manner satis
j factory to the people; and last, but not
least, of their good acts, they have adjourned.
Iii a future article I propose to discus?
the propriety of abolishing certain offices.
