The Contention which inet in Columbia on last Thursday was an honor to the Sta?c. The thoroughness and I rapidity with which it did its work, < coupled with the harmony and enthusi asm which characterised its deliberations, t indicate clearly that the spirit of 187C ' f-tili dwells in the hearts of oar people, > and that on the 5th of November next, < tb?y will roll up such a majority fur Hampton and Home Rule as will fur- j cvc*r crush out Radicalism in South ( Carolina. The party ha* again planted a itself upon the broad platform of equal | rights, good faith, liberality and genuine 1 reform ; and the characters of the mm ] who constitute the State ticket, ns dis- f covered from their record, furnish the i strongest guarantee that the promises i made will be faithfully fulfilled. Notli- t ing now remains but for the Democrats of South C-irolinJ to keep th-ir ranks closed and move forward to victory. J The County Nomine ting ' Convention On Thursday, the 29th of August, one of the most important conventions 1 that has ever b?eo held in K n-haw i County will assemble in Camden. We i say one of the inner imp ortant, because I upon its action will depend in a very ! large degree the progression or retro- * ^ression of Democratic principles in our county. The manner in which the i convention shall discharge the trust con- ; fided to it will contribute much to our ] success or our defeat. If it will emulate < the example of the receut State Con- i vcntioc, which was characterized by j perfect harmony and boundless cnthu- i aiasm, we may move forward with every 1 assurauco of victory. But if, ou the < other hand, personal wranglings and i mean whiskey be allowed to disturb its i deliberations and influenco its action, i we might then, ere the battle is joined, f as well write upon our banners certain 1 defeat and everlasting disgrace. But there is no reason why snch a ( dire calamity should necessarily befall j -i n ?tinr n?nnU trt I _ uie muwrvnv v?> r~~r * thoroughly organized, aud the loftiest patriotism marks and controls their conduct. Upon them depends primarily ihe manner in which the convention will discharge its duties. Let ample notice be given of the meetings of the clubs; let every member who can leave home , respoud to ihe call; let delegates be | chosen not by combinations in the in- , terestg of any particular candidate or candidates, bat by a free and untrurnelled vote of the people whom they are <o represent; and let the delegates thus chosen be men of patriotism and integ- ( ilty, who will perform faithfully the trusts imposed upon them. If these , conditions are observed in the selection ( of delegates, the oonrention of the 29th of August will reflect credit upon , the oouuty and make victory sure on 5th of November. , Editorial Items.

June 6th, 1878 "On and after Monday, September 2d, 1878, cotton covered with J*x tow bagging containing shives (or mall pieces of straw) or manufactured from unr?'tted or imperfectly rotted flax, shall be deemed unmerchantable, and i hall not ho good delivery in this market." Reliable reports from Havana state that a negro riot broke nut there on the 22d instant, in the locality known as Los Sitios. The principle cause of the lissatisfaction among the blacks seems to have been thcircontinuancc in slavery ifter the liberation of all those who sur* -eudcred at the oollaps of the rebellion. During the disturbance, the police tharged, sword in hand, killing and rounding a great many persons. The rioters then dispersed, and fled to the ?wamp8 around Atares Castle. Only a ew arrests were made. All the ring eaders escaped. A Party of masked men. variously estimated at from forty to 6vc hundred n number, rode into Monroe, La., at 1 >'clock iu the morning of July 30, and forcibly took from the Parish jail f<>ur jegroes charged with murder, conveyed them to the courthouse square and hung diem to the limb of an oak tree. Three )f the victims were implicated in killing J W. C. Fitegerald last May. Eitrgerald was a white constable at Treotoo. who had attempted to arrest them for disorderly conduct. One had been sentenced to imprisonment for life arid two others were remanded for a new trial. The fourth victim was charged with waylaying and murdering another negro in cold blood, and had teen sentenced by the District Court to the peniteutiary, but had obtained a new . trial.

The guards fired upon the fleeing convicts and two of tho nino fell to the ground, their leader, Duboso, falling dead from a bullet which passed through his neck, shattering the rpinal column. The other prisoner was shot through the jaw. the hall passing out of his mouth, tie and four others immediately surrendered to the guards, and the thrceothers escaped. Up to a lute hour last evening they had not been recaptured, though the officers had high hopes at the hour our reporter left the prison (H o'clock) jf bringing ilicoi in.

(Friday the 2Gth inst.) \Ve left Lib- <1 erty Hill about 8:30 o'clock in buggies, ^ carriages, wagons Ac., and after tr.nol- j ing eight or ten niil^s over the roughest road I ever saw, we reached our desti- | nation about 12 o'clock. We found s-'V j eral ladies and gentlemen from Fairfield, ? Lancaster, nnd Chr9tor oounlics. awaiting our arrival. After exchanging "paw shakes" Ac , the people were soon scat, tered. The older members amused themselves by discussing politics, farming. housekeeping, Ac., while the young 1 p?'npl?? nuiused themselves hy playing ' whist, boat riding nnd rambling over j. the ' Rocky Mount,'' gazing upon the f beautiful scenery which was grand in the extreme. Would that my pen ' had the pow?*r to describe the views 1 that met our eyes For miles we heheld a chain of picturesque hills stretch- ] ing southward from where we stood, so I beautiful as to make one foci that they ' belonged rather to heaven than earth. ! between these beautiful hills flowed j the silvery waters of the Catawba river, which increased the grandeur of the sight. All of the young people seemed perfectly absorbed, and judging from their countenances, I imagined that they were "lost in wonder, love and praise." We found, not far from the ferry a two story house built entirtly of rock, ( which had been built years ago by Mr John Kingaberry, who forfberly owned r the ferry. It is said that he had his f ccflin made for several years before he 1 died, and that he had it suspended above 1 his bed until his death, which was in ) 182G. He was buried upon the top of t Rocky Mount, whero a suitable mono- ? ment has been erected to his memory. ' After visiting all of the places of interest ? we repaired to a place of rendezvous until dinner was announced. And you i may rest assured that we responded i promptly to the call. Delicacies and f substantial were on hand in the great- . est ffrofusion, and of such a quality as to satisfy the most fastidious.
