WANTED-An agent in every town ship in Fairfield county, to solicit subscriptions to THE NEWS AND HERALD. We intend this year to make THE NEws AND HERALD in every way a better newspaper than it has ever yet been. Especially shall it be our aim to furnish in its columns a complete map of the fleld of poli tics-county, Stato and general. We are pr(pae'od to offer induce - ments to any parties who will un dertake the work of canvassing, and we hope soon to hear from several applicants. Domooratic Meeting, Pursuant to the call previously made, a meeting of the enrolled Democrats residing within the crr porate limits of Winnsboro was held in the court-house on Noiday night. Mr. Goo. H. McMaster, the president of the township club, called the meeting to order and stated that the object for which it was called was to make nominations for intendant and wardens of the town. Mr. McMastor expressed the hope that the proceedings would be characterized by harmony, and by a desire to promote the welfare of the town and of the Democratic organization. He then declared the meeting ready for business. Col. Jas. H. Rion rose, and ad dressed the meeting substantially as follows: Before the . meeting takes any action as to the nomiinaition of can.. didates, I desire to offer a few general suggestions. My sole object is to preserve hmarmoniy and unanimity in the Democratic party. A failure on thle part of the organi - zation in town will be but the comn mencemnent of greater evils, aind would extend, inl its bad results, into thme country, We should carry out the policy that has hitherto brought us success-we should be united and harmonious. We should meet in caucus, select our candi date, and then stand by him. We should act in such a way as to pre vent the wveakness that would result from one wing of our party having to throw itself on the other party for success, We have re cently witnessed in neighboring towns the bad resulta of dissensions ini our ranks, and the benefits of harmonious action. In Columbia the Democrats were united, and they succeeded in carrying the city. In Camden there was a division, and persons outside of the party came in and exercised influence. In Winnsboro, too, for that matter, wve have been divided. We have had one warm contest, and it is there fore difficult to go on without a contest now. I think that contest was unwise, and we don't want aunother. I advise that both the candidates in the late election should be withdrawn, and some third person nominated, If one of . the former candidates be nominated It will be more difficult to harmon. ize than if both are withdrawo If both cannot be induced to with draw, then one,of them ought to and let ims have the other. I hope there is nothing "put up" and4 arranged beforehand, but that we are h)ere for consultation and con.. elderation. We have ever'y reason to fear that these dissensions and divisions may extend beyond tbe corporate limits of the t.own, This 'would be disastrous. Willis Goode moved that a comn mitto of five be appoine to ..a upon the two candidates (Messrs. Neil and Miller) and ascertain if they were willing to withdraw. Mr. A, P. Millor rose, and spoke in substance as follows: I have been once fairly and squarely elected to the position of intendant. I believe this is ad mitted. I do not want any discord or any rupture. To ask me to withdraw now does look like stifling me, but I do not wish to cause any dissensions. I therefore withdraw, and nominate, for the position of intendant, Mr. James A, 3rico. Mr. Jno. J. Neil rose and said It is well known that I did not seek the office of intendant, but was put forward in the matter. I hard ly know what to say, I have had no conference with my friends, and scareely know how to act, It I had put myself forward in the contest, I would feel free to act, but under the present circumstances I would like to consult some of my friends. I am placed in an awkward position, and wish time to consult. Before the last election I signed a paper agreeing to compromise and with draw, but the other side would not consent. [After consultation with some gentlemen present Mr. Neil continued :J For the sake of har mony I withdraw. I do so,however, with great reluctance, and only in the hope that my action will liar monize the party. On motion of Dr. T, T, Robertson, the thanks of the meeting were unanimously tendered to Messrs. Neil and Miller for withdrawing for the sake of harmoiny. On m ot, \''r. T. R. Robert son, M1r. James A. Brice was unani. mously nominated, by aclamation, for the position of intendant, Nominations for wardens being then in order, the following..named gentlemen were put in nomination : Jno. J. Neil, A. P. Miller, W. N. Chandler, R. W. Phillips, R. M. Huey, J. F. McMaster, J. H. Own - mings and T. R. Robertson. Mr, Neil declined, and nominated Mr. R. J. McCarley. The meeting then proceeded to a ballot, which resulted hI the choice of the following-named candidates for wardens; W. N. Chandler, R. J. McCarley, T. R. Robertson and J. H. Cummings.
