A mooting .itivo Committeo of tho so locratio party is called for proximo, but for what and [?an open question. Tho Po rt havo called a convontion of own to put out candidates for .?nor and Stato olilcors and tho jcratic organization, through committee, has, llko tho swarthy Ho, lost Its occupation. Tho call ho 7th of Juno thoroforo is ontiroly rfiuous; peoplo ought not to bo jrud unnocossarlly; thoro Is enough y with that which looks to a prac l ond. Tho nowspapors are guoss iho mooting Is Intended toarrango hpaign. Well? Whon the ticket it out tho candidates can only pose, t; will bo nobody to contest, to op , to uuory, to raiso an issue. Tho ubl'nunis will hardly campaign i oi iigala*t. thorn; thoy are dead as (us C.eiur and will hardly rovlvo to ko a live campaign. So then, tho ospuct for a lively political scrim igo in- South Carolina is a barren jsort. The idea of listoning to dry do sided oulogies on the school houses to havo built-in the last live yoars is rcouraging to those of us who enjoy 0 rattlo of tho kottle drum, the rush nd tho shout of the excited mass, the irtvor tones of the young man eloquent, die keon repartee, noble and 'stilling poriods, the loud and resound lug acclaim. All this we aro to forego, 't would 80om that thoro are two can didates for U. S. Senator, but this ffloe is filled by tho Legislature, 'hero may be others; tho two oandi ites haV?

Still they might pass in review ul let the peoplo look at them; it nht be a free show and many might ike advantage of tho educational ad vantages?a sort of Chaw-talk-qua. As we have hinted tho prospect is lark and droary. Nevertheless, some hing turns up now and tlion and a bc ..iad-qntil driver rises to exclaim that he days of chivalry are not over. Why then may wo not expect sonic Allant Reformer, like tho redoubtable Juixoto on his noblo Rosinanto, to ?Jive his plumo and charge the vast nd vacant air and ride down somo far vay ghost of a dopartod Bourbon. A lit, but disgraceful commentary UX tho tlmos is tho discussion as to e passing upon the liquor question ?this court, or that court, before Mc JWan goes out and Gary goes in. mt politics should enter into the mat ? of tho election of Judges ought to bojmath a people of tho lowest p/o sioijs to decency.
