noble, big-hearted gontloman, Samuel
McGowan, when ho roaches his home
at Abbeville, retired to private life by
a gentleman of his own little vlllago.
Judgo McGowan was born In Lau
rens near Cross Hill and not far from
the banks of tho Saluda; recolved an
academic education at Grconwood and
entered tho South Carolina College
from whieh ho was graduated with dis
tinction in tho class of 1841.
Ho immediately road law with Che
Hon. Thos. O. Perrin, of Abboviilo,
and on boing admitted to tho bar en

ion as partner with his distinguished
proceptor. A Democratic administra
tion having doclared war with tho Ro
publlo of Mexico, his Irish hoart and
noblo impulses impelled him to sustain
his country's arms and wo find him a
private in the ranks In tho Palmetto
Reglmont of voluntoors for Mexico.
He was Immediately promoted to a
captaincy and served throughout that
war with honor to hlmsolf and credit
to his State. Aftor two years' sorvlce
returning to his profession, having
contributed to oxtonding our bound -

turned aftor four years' hostilities, to

learned, honest and patriotic judgo he
has dono distinguished sorvlco for his
_peoplo and Stato. South Carolina has
had few more learned among her
groat judges- 8ho novor had a braver
or honestor. All his Ufo long ho has
kept frosh In his heart a lovo for tho
hills and vales of old Laurons where
-?^??lils young manhood first essayed Its
strength; theso ho will not forgot.
After a while will come a generation
that will do honor to his noblo service.
Wo havo no commont to mako on
the motives and tho manuor of his re

hlsirecord is unwritten; timo will toll;
bat much talent, learning, patlenco,
diligence and untold lovo of country
must distinguish tho worthy wearer of
tho judicial robe so ungraciously torn
from the shoulders of this groat judge.
In his retirement ho and those who
honor and respect him can rejoice that

Tho Democrats of Georgia met In
convention and nominated a Govornor
and othor Stato ofllcors. Thoy met as
Democrats, deliberated as Democrats
and as Democrats adjourned to go to
tho country and light all comers.
Thoro was no clique, cabal, or exclu
sive council who had met "In a corner'
and brought with thorn a cut-and-dricd
ticket for porfunctory endorsement.
In Georgia they havo Democrats, Pop
ulists, Groonbaekers, Third Purtyites
and Republicans, but no shams. Thero
is manliness in Georgia. Even Tom
Watson, so worshipped and carried
about-on-the-shouldors-of-mon in South
Carolina, had to choose under which
banner he would march. (How is it
in this Stato and where aro you at?
They ondorsod tho national democratic
platform and Cleveland's Administra
tion and falling to do that they would
havo stood up in Southern manhood
and choso another name and a new
allegiance.
