CAMDEN, S. Jl'NE 4, 1878.
Camden and Columbiai
Though situated but thirty-two tuilcs
apart and connected by rail, it seems
that there cannot he daily cumuiunications
between Camden and Columbia, i
For several months tlie schedule of the
South Carolina Railroad was such that i
it was impossible for the mails to come
from Columbia except upon three days
in the week, Hut the schedule has
been changed, and ore can go to or
conic from Columbia any day he chooses;
and still the mails come bul three times,
a week. The policy of the government,
ns we understand it, is 10 have the
mails to go whether passengers do or'
or not. To i!i:s ca-'e passengers for
Camden i'rom the North and Northeast
como through without delay, while the
mails stop in Columbia three days in
every week. Therc are facts. It is
therefore unnecessary to enter into an
argument to prove that a screw is loose
somewhere. It is evident that such is1
the case, and wc call upon the govern-;
uicut officials to give the matter their;
attention, and see if they cannot give [
Camdon a daily Northern and Northi
astern mail.
A Suit For Damages.
Col. Edward F. Stokes, who, it will
ho remembered, was imprisoned in,
Greenville for a year er two by Judge
Cooke for refusing to testify in a case
that was being tried before him, and
who has leeu particularly noted for the
last ten years ou account of his extreme
Democratic views, nnde a speech recently
in the streets of Greenville, for
which ho was arrestcJ by the police and
J _ I ?'? rvMur^ilionQn
congnea an maui ?. ? ....
Co!. Stokes has sued the city council of
Greenville for damages. In reference
to the matter tho Abbeville Medium
says :
Col. Edward F. Stokes will shortly
en'er suit against the c.ty of Greenville
for the recovery of one hundred thousand
dollars damages. The ground upon
which this action is based wo de-;
tailed in our last issue in giving some
account ol Colonel Stoke's all.night
continent nt in the city guard house in
violation of Lis rights as a citizen of the
[/' State and in contravention of his rights
as guaranteed in the first amendment of
the constitution of the 1'nited States.
The trial of the case will develop some
very interesting and important questions
of constitutional law.
?ditorial Item?.
The lladicul State Convention will
meet in Columbia on the 7th of August.
Gf.W Grant is coming prominently
to the front as a candidate for the liepublican
nomination f r the Presidency

f Through the influence of Scu*tori

The State of Ohio is taint; rc-di*??1

Mrs. Kate Southern, who was!
convicted of the murder of Miss. Cow-1
art, will not be hong. Governor Col. !
quitt 1 ss commuted her sentence to ten

The feeling in favor of the re.nomi.
nation of Governor Hampton and all of
his associates in the executive department
of the State is almost unanimous,
if we may juduc fiom the tone of our i
i
cxcnanges.

Mr. Christian K. Ross says that of

are now pro\ided with comfortable!
homes.
A Reaction of opinion is setting in
throughout the entire country in regard
fo the Florida-Louisiana investigation.
At first, not only Republicans but many
Democrats opposed the action of the
House of Representatives in appointing
a committee to investigate the frauds alleged
to have bceu committed in those
States in the election of 187fi. Rut with
the sober second thought, the country is
fast coming to the conclusion that, if
frauds were committed,the guilty par tics
should be found out and punished, to
the end that there will not hereafter be'
a repetition of such conduct.
With commendable enterprise the
Charleston Xiirs aw? Courier sent its
regular Columbia correspondent, "G'.|
McK," to ''interview" Bald Mountain,
as soon as it was announced that it was
rer.t in twain. After a rough journey,
the correspondent reached Bald Mountain,
and then, after much climbing and
many narrow escapes, he found a erov;
ice in the side of the mountain, but in
dicating nothing more than a land slide,
which is of frequent occurrence among
mountains. "C. McK," writes n very
readable letter to his paper on the subject,
and concludes by saying that the
whole thing reminded him of the ancient
adage of the mountain and the mouse.

conversation the massaere of Custer

Hampton told him of -tho incident
! about the glass, and asked if Mrs. Cus]
tcr would like it, to which, after being
communicated with, she replied that
she would prize it doubly because it
had been the property of two brave

1 Washington that the Senate Committee
on Commerce has increased the figure
of the proposed appropriation in the

for information as to to when news may be

There is no cable telegraph station in
Liberia, nor, wo believe, within many

with Liberia by steamer, we
are officially advised that the mails for
Liberia arc dispatched from South

Thf. denial of General Crant respecting
the assertions of Dick Tnvlor and
Gideon Welles, which appeared in
yesterday'* RejjUter, has reminded the
Washington /W of an anecdote of:
Andrew Johnson told by a correspond-j
ent shortly after the latter was elected ,
United Flutes Senator. Tbo correspondent
was interviewing Andy on
general principle*, and asked him if
he really believed Urant would taken
third term* "Take!" replied Andy,
with even more than Lis usual vehemence
; 1-Take! he would take any*
t
thing that was offered him! Why, d?u
him, he once took the lie from
me!" The nnexdote is not altogether'
unsiiggpstivc at the present time, when
Taylor and Welles conflict with <1 rant's

Tiiert was recently lorn in this
county a pair of twins, who, 1.a 1 they
lived, would have been a greater curios-;
ity and a more puzzling question to
physiologists than the famous Siamese
twins. Oq the 1m!i instant, a white
lady, living about 1U miles from Vorkville.
gave birth to female twins, who
were connected by a baud or continuation
of the skin, extending from the
breast to the pelvis. On account of the
narrow width of the band, tho iufunts
were drawn in position face to-faco Thev
were both unusually large, and were i
otherwise developed. One wa3 still

years and borne children, all of whom I

Ma. Kpitob :?The small grain crops are I
being harvested by the farmers in this nnd
surrounding enuiitry. Wheat is scarcely j
an average crop, on account of the rust. I
have seen few fields this year that was not j
damaged more orle?<- t>v rust, bate wheat
has sulfered badly, the crop being nearly a
failure. The "He! May" variety seems to i
he the best adapted to this climate, as U
mature, very early, and is generally too t
far advanced when the rust strikes it to re-j
reive much damage* (/apt. b. b C'yhurn's
premium lot of wheat, which was sown in 1
this kind, yielded thirty busheb per acre
of as tine wheat as 1 ever saw grown in this
or any of the wheat growing districts north
of this. His oat crop is exceedingly fine
The yield ot the entire crop is estimated i
by competent judges to he between twenty
five hundred and three thousand bushels.
He is certainly the Aiken of Kershaw
Count y in raising small grain crop-<. And
his harvest feud reminded one of the good
old times of long ago, when peace nnd
prosperity dwelt in the land.
In politics wc are all harmonizing, and
