The 32nd annual meeting of the South Carolina !*!?? * A nt was held nn lliii Isle of I'hIiiih iii the Hotel Seashore last, week. i lie universal verdict i* that this meet ing wan the beet and most siiccin* #ul ever held in the life of tin; An ?ociation. The editors upon their aniv-il in Charleston were met l>v a commit tee and given free transportation over tho street railway, tin- boat line and the suburban trolley in (be Isle of Pal ill H. Another e vi donee of hospitality was the illoi'.s of the proprietors of the hoii'l lo give to the members of the Associ ation their beat looms. I he wel come given liy Mayor Khett was sincere, as the vjsitois found (throughout their stay. The business meet itigs ol the A" aociaiion wele most ^ulei est ing and instructive. They were made d?u bly pleasant l>V tlio presence of ho many lady luewjbers of the Associ ation. The only sad incident connected with the meeting was the rc?dfciia tion on account of his health, of Mi c. C. Langston us oecrelary of the Association.

On Wednesday a visit, was iii-nle to the forls und gariisons on Sulli van's Island und a day's trip around the harbor and up and down tho rivers on the IVistaiia, a government boat which is admira bly suited for such purposes.

The banquet given Thursday uight by the local press and tin city of Charleston in honor of the Press Association, whs thoroughly enjoyed by the large number of guests in attendance. In addition to the social feature* already mentioned there ??? tin one continuous feature that ulToni ed great pleasure?the surf bath ing. This in itself would have af forded abundant enjoyment to all The people of Charleston left nothing uudone to inalTe the editor* enjoy themselves, and we are gtaii to say the Association is lo meet there again next year. Maj. Hemphill, our host, of the News ?fe Courier, Ims this to say of the visitors: ??The Convention has been the largest in every way tliat. the As sociation has held in the thir'y-one years of its existence, but this i-t not of llrst importance. Those <<t us who have been familiar with no Association for years and who h.-;vr been part of it recognize a highei character in its personnel and a more serious purpose in its proceed tags luMii at any previous time. Editors of fort!most position, w lu-, for a long time have abscultd themselves from the CoBvention*, were present again, and suil ot!un? of equal repute, who have not bri n mem tiers, joi tied it. 1 he iiumlii r ' f hangers-on of persona who are >? truly newspapermen, who are t..?i proud of the calling and eagei t>> give to it the best that is in ttiem (for ulwavs there are some of im* kind about tho Press Association meetings) was fewer than ever lit ? fore. The body was composed of master craftsmen, of men who have "made good," of experts to whom tbe making of newspapers is a business requiring unstinted lint loving toil and worthy of the ex penditure of the best talent, whethct directed to obtaining a clean typo graphical impression from the press, | sr of iunkiug a strong editoiinlf impreeeiou upon the public. ?The men who stand at the fiont of J urnalism in South Carolina, the Orderly sergeants by whose button* *11 the enlisted men drees, are those who have begun at the bottom and learned all the details of the "shop," ?o that by them correct justification of * line U deemed no lees essential than the well rounding of a period. ...
