The National JlepHhliiuiu of the

pronounced one of tin loveliest
women who ever trod the mar
hie halls of the Treasury. Ma r

dance with her earlier life. It does
hot seem inopportune to place her
here among these women, as the
ilect.lht prominence of her lr.it
hand in national affairs wili in
terest many in knowing where Gov.
Chamberlain found his wife. The
daughter of Dv A M I i-.gor.soil, for
many years u member of Congress
from New York- she was reared in
luxury and enj iveii all the advanta
ges, ul high educational culture. A ft er
the death of her f ither and when his
business matters were settled, the
daughter found herself in penury,
with an ihvilid mother looking to
Ik r, as tin: \vc:.k ever d ) to the
strong. With the highest sense of
duly, she built the walls of protect
ing love around the mother, and did
the work cheerfully and well, that
her hands found to do. Ii -r father's
friendsj .among them Willian Pitt
I-Ys.-endeii, obtained for her an ap
pointment in the Treasury Depart
ment, and there .-he remained dis
charging Iht duties with the utmost
satisfaction, until her marriage
around Which there lingers en nigh
of romance to make it interesting, j
Mr Chamberlain, at the lime A it or- I

Now, Mr. Editor, this brings us to
our point. We ask of Mis Excel
lency the appointment?if such be

We do not mean to ask for this ap
I point incut on the ground of recogni
tion of lights alone, but upon the
higher plan of complete fitness for
the position.
Our candidate is W J PeTreville,
Esq. A od why docs Orangoburg ask
for his (lectio;: to the olii/e in ques
tion ?
We make it, first, because we have
some one competent. 2nd Because
we are r.f the li t Judicial Circuit
3rd. Because we have had no repre
sentation outside of the Legislature
since reconstruction. What has
Charleston today? 1st. .She has
her Attorney General. 2u I. She has
her Congressman (from which results
a large Federal patronage.) And
she has always had .Solicit ir !
Now, Mr Ivlilor, I believe the
people of ibis county are as one on
this question. They want the Soliei

hook or by crook. Voi'ku.

Poplar Township,
July 1UU 1877.
To (he JStliior of lYews ami Times :
Our usually quiet neighborhood
has been in a perfect ferment for the
last few days, owing to a recent visit
down here ol* one Straker, a nogro,
who says lie is a lawyer, who came in
company with ex-Treasurer and ex
convict Humbert. The insolent con
duct 0/ Shaker to the Trial Justice
Hush, before whom be bail a cas<*, and
to the white people generally, has
stirred bad feelings between the races,
or, at any rate, has made.the negroes
very inso lent to their employers. lie,
Shaker, is to be down here to -morrow,
Thursday, ami the negroes have
generally notified 1 he whites that they
will not work on that day, b3e?/ise
Mr. Straker says they must covi e
to hear hi in speak. The negroes are
perfectly wild; in fact, they seem from
their conduct to imagine that Shaker
will learii them some plan by which
they can get the "top rail" at the bo t
torn again.
Now, Air. Editor, in the name o 1
peace and protection to our wives and
little ones, we protest against the
conduct of ibis man Straker in hold
ing political meetings while our crops
are suffering for work,and in stirring
up the negiocs against the white
people who are their best friends. If
Straker wishes to make political
speeches, let him retire to 13ihntl la',
lie has pestered this people long
enough. We can stan 1 bis impudence
and his incendiary talk no longer.
His conduct, in the Trial!Justice's
Court last Friday, was such that a
wbit'j hoy who came to testify against
Iiis client ivas so tcrrHiid that hi
could scarcely give his evidence, and
after he ha I testified some what in
behalf of St raker's client he, Straker,
then promised tin; witness that he
should have protection. The Trial
Justice Was compelled to order St rak
er'down several lim '-s au I to threat
cii to iiilc him on account of bis out
rageous beha\ ior.

Are manufacturing the Celebrated
"Daniel Pratt Cotton Gin.V with Revolv

which are improvements patented by them
in July 1873.
Any ordinary plantation hand can feed
these Gins, and*they will turn out more lint
in the same time than any other Gin, and
by theme of the adjtftttablc seed board,
which can be adjusted while the 6:a is.
running, they can be made to pick the
seed much cleaner than any other Gin.^Q
The experience of overv planter who has
