Let us tr^Tn conviqtiou to bring out such men as’no negro can refuse to vote for except that he simply wants to Vote a Radical .ticket; then let ua work to convince such, if thero be any, of their error.. Some,men talk as if it makes no difference' whether t6e negro votes with us or not, we will carry the election.4 This should fiotbe the feeling of our party, we slipuH try to so show to the colored man that in the Democratic ranks are his,only friends. This is not hard ts do. They have been born on our so*, they ifnve, lived upon our soil aud they will die upon our soil' Convince them of this fact and the day will be not far distant When there will be no use for conven tions nor primary Clectihns, but like of old, n;en may be brought forward and elected upon merit alone. This is whet vfe are looking forward to, and we can not be disappointed. Lots of the work can be done this time, lots in 1880. Let uft devise some plan of op eration and go to the task like Demo crats of 187C. Now, Mr. Editor, I expect you would like to know about crops.

Mr. Edttou : I once loved foxhunt ing, and the consequence is when I see a bound dog until this day my pulse beats quicker. Tho other day while going from this place to Wiljlston I met a negro boy with a very lean look ing puppy. When near him I noticed it was of the hound pervasion by the ears of the puppy, as they were about all yomcould see. I asked the boy what was the matter with the dug. His answer was, “He got de mange, sir.” He looked lilio he-had been washed in concentrated lye. I asked hia name and he said it was Hockter. Now, sir, what I want to say to you is that the DerAocrotlc party up hero seems to be as dead as Hector. I do not know whether Hector is dead or not, but when I saw him be looked like he would die, and so does the Demociratic party up here—it looks like it will die. We held a meeting this evening to elect delegates to the convention soon to be held at Barnwell, and it was » difficult! matter to get enough together to make a eeleption. N"W this ought not to bo' so. Where is alhttae vuiliUHUsm that we displayed in old Barnwell in 187G? Has it died out ? If so what Is the cause ? Is It because we have tried to improve upon the old and successful^, plan of selecting our candidates for the Legielature aud other offices by Intro ducing uew plans and systems ? or is It because wo thiali, tho victory won forever ? -If the last is what the party think we have done they make a mis take.

Tl»e Aaor’s Terrible Trip—VVlio arc to Itlaure. [News and To-da-y wo publish the first ieUcr received from Mr. Alfred B, Williams, who, sailed from Charleston on the 'bark Azor, bound for Liberia, This letter gives particulars of the strange aud sad events briefly mentioned In the telegram from Mn iera, and brings before the public, with strong yet ten der touches, the light and daik sides, the mingled tragedy aud comedy, of the Asor’s terrible voyage, Reading this letter, so fresh and raev while so thoughtful and discriminate^, we con gratulate ourselves upon the success which has so far attended tho boldest adventure iu the history of Southern journalism, success largely due to the constancy, courage and abfdty of the gentleman who, with pboncgraphic ac curacy, reproduces every noteworthy event In the novel experiences of the African ommigrants from Charleston. There was an errorTn tho tranemis- wlon ef the Madeira telegram. Sailing from Charleston on April 21, the Azor put iu>t Sierra Leone ou May 28, and reached Monrovia at midnight cm Juue 2. The bark proved herself to be a fast sailer, as we anticipated, but the winds were baffling and, with the loojr calms, protracted the voynge. When the Azor was only two days out, it was discovered ^that the' pro visions were bad and unfit for use. There was a superabundance of meal, flour and rice and a good quantity of pork and salt beef, but the flour w*8 coarse aud black, and the meal only lit “for hogs to eat. *y There was meat enough, but it waa not meat sup plied by 1 the Sxodus Assbclatiou. With the exception of five barrels, the m^at belonged to "the stores of the emigrants/’intended for their support in Liberia until ttojr firstaSofr atomlrt This is a bad beginning, as It is mentioned by Mr. Williams that the emigrant* are putirejy without money. How they will livu in a strange land, f epnllese as almost all of them are aud helpless as are too many of them, we shall hope to learn in ewbse qurnt letters. The emigrants proved to be docile ignoramus, ai concletrd ah stupid, Mr. William* says * that the Rev. B. V. Porter, tho President ot the Exodus Association, assured Col lector Baldwin at Charleston that he “knew” Curtis was qualified to set as ship’s physician. This agrees with our own Information on the subject! Collector Baldwin was wilfully and deliberately misled. In truth. In the wprds of Mr. Williams, this maa Curtis “knows about as much about medicine as a street-car mute. 11 Mofe mfechtevous than a mule, Cur tis administered medicine of thd na ture .and probablo effects of which he knew nothing. To a poor creature who bhd the measles, Curtis adminis tered la .the course one morning, Coffee with an infusion of ginger, a Dover’s powder. 6nd. ( Fria’i Balsam.” She died the same day. Calomel and jalap wefethe favorite prescriptions, and it soon became uecessciry for Capt. Holmes to prohibit any further-cxper- ithenting by Dr. Curtis. The emi grants hid been assured by tho asso ciation that a physician from Wash ington would accompany the Azor. Upon this they relied. Not only was there no physician, but there was no such medical stores as good spirits and wines, sago and arrowroot. When stimulants were needed for the sick the slender private stores ol Ctapt. Holmes and Mr. Williams were resor ted to. With a short allowance oj water, with food of poor quality, and with out a physl ilan, it is not strange that the death roll should have been so large.

These four make the whole number of deaths 23, as M the tele gram from Madeira. There were two births during the passage. Tor the deaths that took place, aboard of the A-»r 9 the Liberian Lxodus Associa- on. are, In the main responsible. Their deception, their bad faith/ their miamansgement, their falsehoods and evasions, led to the long delays in Charleston, to the Impecunious con dltion of the emigrants, and to the sickness and death of more than a score of the ignorant aud thoughtless people-who hoped to find in Africa more freedom and more ease than they knew in the South, Theirs is now the freedom of death, and the ease of life eternal. , It cannot be doubted that Capt.
