jPKAT^L OF GEN. MANl^AUI/T.
On last Tuesday, jit South Island, near
tGeorjjetown, Adjutant and Inspector
^General A. if.. Manigault died in the
sixty-second year of his age. llis death
^was tho indirect result of a severe
wound received at Franklin.
Gen. Manigault Was a noble type of a
.Southern gentleman. He was literally
Without fear and without reproach. In
jtimes of war he served his country with
fidelity and honor. In peace ho has
lived as becomes all good citizens: And
in death has left to his posterity the
heritage of a stainless name, and a warm
place in the love and confidence of
Jhe people of this State.

We had intended to reply to the ex
^traordinary articles of. the I*reus and
panncr on Dr. Waddell and his famous
school, and show how on a former occn.
JJiou .that paper held and expressed very
^different views. But absence from home
has prevented carrying Qut of our intension.
So wo copy an article from the
Press and Banner signed "X. Y. Z."
that thouroughly answors our neighbor. [
Indeed tho writer does him up so well, '
.that we simply write below it "them's
our sentiments."

was decided upon ho wooild lot tho people
know if he was a candidate for Congross.
Tlmt that was the position he
had always occupies and was the one
j ho occupied to-day.
Mr. Gary moved to lay the resolution
on the table, and called for a constitutional
vote, which resulted as follows :
yes 1342 ; no 2399. The tollers on the
primary election reported as follows: (see
tabulated statement.) Mr. lionet said he
had expected to be a candidate upon tho
the primary, but had never expected to
opposo Judge Cuthran if ihe election
should be by convention. He therefore
asked the Convention to support Mr.
White's resolution. Mr. White withdrew
his call for a constitutional vote
on the adoption of the resolution. The
resolution was thon adopted by a viva
voce vote. Mr. W. P. Calhoun moved
to fix the 2nd primary for Friday, Sept.
3rd. Mr. Graydon moved to amend by
fixing Sturday, Sept. 4th. The amendment
was adopted, and the 2nd primary
was ordered to bo held on Saturday, 4th
September.
The next business in order was the
oleation of twelve delegates to the Congressional
Convention to be held at Seneca
