JONES & CO., Proprietors. PRIMARY FOR (ONG R EM. It is very desirable that the pri marv system of election be adopted for nominating congressmen. Only in this way can the choice of a larg portion of the citizens be expressed. If the nomination be made by con vention, the entire issue. in this county at least. will be centered in the fight for two men : or that is the present indication. The contest will be as to which of the two candidates in the field shall get a majority of delegates in the county convention which shall send delegates to the congressional convention. The lpeo ple of this county can well imagine what kind of a contest that will be it will be bitter. The county will be divided into partisan factions over the two candidates, and in all proba bility the unpleasantness of 1, l will be' repeated. Primary election will obviate this.--Newlerry Obscreer. We have no objection to the pri mary plan of nominating congress men if the people want it, and if it be practicable in the present caln paign. W\e find, however, that the Constitution of the Democratic par ty of South Carolina provides only for nomination by convention : ARTICLE vi. The mode and man nor of nominating candidates for county offices or for the State. Ju dicial and Congressional Con.en tions, shall be regulated in each coun ty by the respective county conven tions. ARTICLE vii. The State Convention shall be composed of delegates from each county, in the numerical pro portion to which that counrty is~ en titled in both branches of the Gene ral Assembly. . AnrE xiii. Representaion inJu dicial and Congressional Co'nventin shall be on the same basi, as in State Conventions. A majority of deleh g'ates shall be present at a conven tion to constitute a quorum for nom inating a candidate either for con gress or solicitor. * * * As1 soon as a Congressional or Judicial Convention has nominated the party candidate for congress or solicitor. it shall adjourn sinie (ie :and whenever a candidate to fill an unexpired term of either office, has to he nominated, it shall be done by a new convention of delegates fresh from the peoplde. The executive committee of e'ach congressional district or judicial cir cuit shall consist of the severl coun tv- chairmen of the respective couni ties and parts of counties comp~osing such District or Circuit. * ** It shall require the consent of a mna jority of the whole executive comn mittee in any district or cirenit to call a nominating convention. This certainly shows that anmi nation of congressmen and solicitors by the primary plan was not contem plated when the Democratic party in convention adopted the present Co~n stitution. The only article of the Constitution that could possibly b e construed to give the congressinonal district the power to change from the convention plan of nominating to the primary is article vi., qjuoted( above. And this evidently has reference to the manner of electing delegates to the Congressional, State, .Judicial and County Conventions, and of nom inating candidates for county oflices, which may be done by prmr ec tion. In Charleston County del egate.s to the State, Judicial and Congres sional Conventions are elected by primary-, and it is perfectly compe - tent for each and all of the several counties comp)osing the Third Con gressional District to call their Coun ty Conventions together and iamnend their constitutions so as to conform to the primary mode of electing dcl egates, each cotty would have to act separately in the matter and one could adopt p)rima~ry and anoth er continue the convention plan, but to vote directly for a candidate for Con gress. W~e believe. (as we statted on April 28th in the HEREDu .xU NEW5) that it would be necessarv for the Democratic party of the State to meet and so amend the present Con stitution. as to give the Congression al District the powr. to vot" byV primary in nominating a candidate for Congress: the same would have to be done to enable them to vote directly for State officers. If this is to be done the State Executive C'om mittee should call a convention at once and settle the einest ion. The primary it seems is de'sire.d by. the p)eole,l( and they certain]yr Lauv. t - power to control the miachin&ry of the~ party if a majority of themn agree upon a play', but if a ae Convention was called and a majo.ri - ty of the delegates should vot e to J.AK J Di4 % continne the convention plan. it would necessitate callii i another convention to nominate siate offi ei rs which would take a great deal of their time and we have thought that it wuld i" impracticable for us11 i! t1" pre-en;it campaign, however if hlele are willing to 'i Ve, tle time t: holding County and State Conventiols in order to adopt it. we are willing and shall render such asi-tane as may be in our tower. to bring about this result: at the same time we are not alarmed by what the U1,srver says about the un pteasantIess of 1 N4 being repeated. We can speak for one of the candi (ates antt can say\, that he has never been the cause of any unpleasant ness. which has occurred in a con Vention of the Democratic party in Newherry County. either in 1 4, or any" other time. We refer to Capt. JaLs. N. Lipscomb. If our construc tion of th? Constitntion is not cor rect, we w tu be glad to have the ilmatter explaitneU. The primary plan of eieetitg delegates would enable the counties to agree uponl one of their cai ldattes or to elect delegates favorable to the candidates of anlother cuitnty ; and in c,uinties where no cain1didates were p!reseited. they could Vote for delegates who would suplp] ort the calit=:ate , a majority of th. voters of the couity or Cottn tie'. We believe this would be the most acceptable pl:I1 after all. As the "[retty large contingent of voters in Newberry County who (the Obser ver savs) do not want either Mr. John stone or Mr. Lipscomb." can get up a ticket for any candidate they pre for "from another county." The objection to a direct vote by primarr for a candidate is that the larger counties would have the ad va itlge of the smaller if there were but one cani?ndate from each county and the plurality plan adopted. There art also other objections which we will point out if .a Convention is eal!ec. L'0r AR IIlH)T. Several papers in the Third Con gress ion al District have stated thet strong solicitat!uu is being presented to Judge J. S. C=thran. of Abbeville. to indce him to enter the race in the Third Congressional District for the purpos' of retaining the repire sen tativye ini Abbeville County. Judge Cothran is a charming, able and popular man. andl would make an acce pt:dl e anti distinguished rep re sentativl. He has high qjualification f or that kind of work. We admire his genius and his worth, but we do not think he shion1id consent to make the race which i.s urged upon him. Abbe.ville County has had the repre sentative for ten years, and there is, in our judgment, no justification for (alling on a Circuit Judge to enter the race to keep the other counties from having the Congressman Thes~e.counties have able and up right men. who) have wor'kd as hard for thaeir country antd have as strong c:lams upon the peop)le as5 the dis t inui hI sons of the distinguished (.oun't of Xbbeville have. We have no 0 tb)teti n to Abbevilht' having. a j;nil share of~ the ta bie honors. She ld has man al> :uil worthy 501ns. but we (0 hot like to see the spirit man ift<. towards thIe other coutieWs wh~i b i iwn inl the etTort to beat th'im d..wn. ('ven if she has to call onl II (Cent J udge to enter the race to do it. Judge Cothran has an ex dit:d position. and should not con sent to leave it simpl o tepr poset of iwrVting the haudable am bition! of otheOr gentlemen. for no higher offense than that they do not live in Abbeville Counity.--Aniderson flibp-Tey-r. The Intelligencer is right. and ex preses the sentiment of a goodly 'nmber of the p)eople of the Third Congressional District: and if Ander son. Oconiec. Pickens and Newberry will say (as they have in their power to do) that the nomination shall be envti to that citi:en resiinig withlin on1e of these counties who it can be oH: willit best represent the larg'est munbeir of the Democratic voters of the distict, the p)ositioni will be filled fo onc by a candidate living be un the . borders~ of Abbeville. and *n no1't mixed upj wit.h th proposed u diil t riansfer arrangfemenlt.

Unselfish, almost inexotic his views of politics, General Bratton S never vet r'ceived the rewards which ;rateit people should pay him for his titarv and civic services. OtR GOVERNOR. We were not surprised that Gover ir Thompson should have refused accept the position of Commis. )rer of Education offered him by c President, for we believe that he .lies too highly the honors con rred upon him by the people of this ate to resign it to accept another. e admit that the temptation was eat. nearing as it is, to the close of s term of oflice, but we believe that people will honor him for it, and ii show their appreciation of his t ion by conferring upon him addi. al honors. Gov. Thompson has ade one of the best Governors the ate over elected. We believe that has 'lone everything in his power serve the State faithfully, and that deserves the well done of the peo e of the entire State. We have -n impressed with the courteous ann,er he receives and hears the pe tions of the people, and have atehed with pleasure the interest .keu in each case which has come ier our observation. W e are requested by the Green lie News to say "that Mr. Orr was ned as Judge. Cothran's successor t The News, without a request or nt from anybody, and without the ice or knowledge of anybody. he subject has not, so far as we now, been spoken of in any way or en alluded to by Mr. Orr or his ersonal friends." We take pleasure in complying ith the above request, at the same me. we had heard Mr. Orr's name Lentioned in this connection, before e saw the suggestion of the Green ille News. and it looked very much if there was a plot somewhere, and ere was some reason for thinking , as M r. Orr's friends made him Soli tor Cothrau's successor, and might e .to make him Judge Cothran's accessor, which cannot be done un ss they elect Judge Cothrsn to ongress cr some other position and rate a vacancy. Abbeville and the Congressman. Th e A bbevilleo Messenger quotes our 7ti of 1:mt wveek in reference to Judge otha's being brought into the race w Cungress to hold the representa vi' in that counity. and says: We nould like for our neighbor to :ne the p)apers which have made the atoents. lThe editor of the Intelli 'neer cerL:tiily knows Judge Cothran cil enongh to know that he would not iir th rc with any such motives. he is the heni quialitied man in the dis -it for Congressmian-and it is univer alv :nimHittedl ihat lie is-he ought to be i.r'rjpresenltat ive evenf if he were born iA in:a.

Tell us-. pray, when is this continual muin g dowii of men, simply because ier are Abbeville men, to cease? Has f ecome a political crime to be born in e cnty that gave birth to Calhoun, [cDuflie an d others equally well noted Sthe history of our State? Does it dis ualify a mnau from holding political fle,'b)ecIaute his home is in Abbeville ? :would sem so, when such ably con acted papers ams the Anderson Intelli ier is willing to use its columns in tt direction. The.( remarks of the Intelligencer are imair to Judge Cothran,and places him Sa position he would not occupy under y ciremtnstanices. We would say to our friends of the [.ssenge(r that the ground upon which -e made the statenmnt was an article in e Amndersoni Journal, which said: We learn that there is a movement on >ot at Abbeville C. H. to secure Judge ,trn's~ consent for his uame to go 'fore thme convention for nomination as me )emocratic candidate for Congress this district in case Col. Aiken's state iheal th will not permit him to be in e field. Abbeville purposes to stand v Col. Aiken if he is in tihe field, as we le informed, but if lhe should be out it deemed certain that Judge Cothran's mn-n is the only chance to hold the rep wattat ive in Abbevllle County. This paragraph was copied into differ t papers in the district and out of it, nd for near three weeks not one word dielahner was uttered from any ur.e. Th'le paragraph was copied, we ell, inm One or more papers at Abbe ille, n;d their acquiescence in the state went by silence naturally induced the pressioni that Abbeville''s position was rrety stated. We have not uttered ne ord of eensure for Judge Cothiran, t we did dissent from the idea that .beville shou,ld call into requisition te services of Judlge Cothran merely to nab her to retaini the Congressman. uge Cothmran may be unanimously Ominateil for all that we know, and if ~we are satistied that the interests of ie district will not suffer, for we know m to be an able gentleman, and we ke him, but in all candor we think Ab eville has had and still has enough. he Associate Justice, the Circuit Judge nder two men, one of the Code Coin missioners, Solicitor and member of Con ress for ten years are a pretty good w:re for onme county, and it is no dis Lrageent of Abbeville nien to say that mew other men should have some show in the honors of the State. Ander n and Oconee have never had any ing, an.i Newberry anid Pickens have v very little. Therefore it is not in ip)arageent of Abbeville men, but in eien,e of other men, that we wrote. the Messeniger will show us where we ae ever said or done one single act run down: Abbeville men we will be :1 ti m:nke amends. T'hey are as o::oral". as intelligenit, and as high mned as the men of any other county, t if they combine to hold everything iAheville we think they might reas aably expect the other counties to mht:e to secure a little in the distri ation of the public ofisces.-Anderson rf//iener.

We have just received a copy of a "Grammar School History" of the United States, written by Miss L. A. Field, of Georgia. We have not had time to examine it carefully, but think from what we have read in it. that we will be highly pleased with the book. It is written in a plain, comprehensive style and seems to be well suited for common schools. We should be very careful in de termining, at our next meeting, what history is best adopted to meet our wants. The committee in their re port recommended Swinton's series. not that it is faultless, but that it is the best of the list from which they had to select. We don't doubt that the series is very good, but we know that the author lived "across the line" and therefore could not have been in full sympathy, with the Southern people, in the "lost cause." It is true that sectional jealousy should be smothered, and that States' lines should be forgotten. Genera tions, however, may come and go; the political face of our country may be changed; the fraternal ties of friendship may bind our people to gether, but the time is in the far fu ture when a Southern man will fail to delight in reading, from a South ern standpoint, the brave and chival rous deeds of those who follow d an unsullied but unsuccessful banner of a noble people. Teacherx' Association. The Teachers' Association met Saturday 5th. On account of un favorable weather the attendance was rather small, but, as usual, a lively interest was manifested. Only one of the lecturers, Miss Mamie Whites. was present who read a well prepared essay on "Map Drawing." She clear ly showed that this subject demands more attention than is usually given to it: that to understand geography thoroughly, it is necessary to devote much time to the study of map drawing. The teachers, generally. expressed their opinion that it is highly beneficial, but not always ex pedient in our country schools, where there are so many children, and so many wants to be supplied. The subject of holding a conven tion of two or three days during the smmer was brought up, but it was deemed best to wait until the next meeting to decide when it shall be held. We hope that the next meet ing of the Association will be well attended, since we have postponed the subject of text-books until that day. Teachers are beginning to feel that the holidays are near, for the time for commencements and school exhibitions is at hand. The closing exercises of the Female Academy will take p)lace this week, and will doubtless be well attended, for the young ladies of Capt. Pifers school never fail to draw large crowds to their exhibitions. The exerci.V of the Prosperity High School will also take place this week. We would be pleased to attend both, but of course cannot, since they are at the same time. On next Sunday the College commencement will begin with the preaching of the Baccalaureate ser mon by Rev. Dr. Alleman, of Penn sylvania. On Sunday night Rev. Dr. Grier, of Erskine College, will address the students. On Monday and Tuesday there will be exercises at the Opera House, and on Wednes day the class of 18863 will bid fare well to their alna mater. Wofford College Commaencement. We thank the young gentleman of Wofford for an invitation to their com mencement exercises, which will be hel:l Tuesday, June 15th. The commence ment will begin on Sunday morning with the sermon before the graduating class. It is expected that Bishop Dun can will deliver the oration. Trhe ad dress before the Literary Society, will be made by Senator M. C. Butler. The Calhoun Debaters are Messrs. J. -E. Ellerbe, S. B. Jones, Jr., J. L. Jefferies and J.

Thue Alumni Orator is W. HI. Wallace, Esq., of the N'ewberry Observer. He will make his address on Monday morning. The graduating exercises will take place Tuesday morning, followed by Senator Butler's address. The mnarshalls will be Messrs. J. E. Ellerbe, J. M1. Rogers, J. L. Jefferies, G. L. Wilson, J. C.
