A resolulion was adopted that Presidents of clubs should serve pro temporeas members of the County Executive Committee, in cases where clubs have failed to present nomina tions. Stiles R. Mellichamp, Eiq , oflered n resolution in favor of the primary election system of nominating candi dates. Aftor discussion, the mutter was roferrcd to the County Execu tive Committee, to bo reported upon by them to a subsoqtient Convention. On motion of Capt. F. M. Wanna maker, it was resolved that the mini mum number of momhors requisite to entitle a club to representation in Convention, shall be 25. The following preamble and reso lutions '.vcrc then adoptc.l by a unan imous vote, the Convent*!jti rising and enthusiastically applauding the sentiments expressed therein : Whereas,*tlie wise, prudent and impartial administration of Governor Hani} ton has nobly vindicate.! tho pledges of the Democratic party, made during (be last rampab/n, r?ml litis not only met with the approval of the Democracy throughout tho ?State, hut has also commanded tho admiration and respc of all parties and hy its benign inh._?jiico produced harmony among our citizens of all classes, and, whereas, the future suc cess of the Democrat ic party, the pros perity of the State, ami the happiness of our entire people, depend in great measure upon the continuance of his noble, conservative and success ful ad mi nisi rtintion. Therefore, be it Itemized, \\y the Democracy of Orangeburg C.mnty, in Convention assembled, that we fully endorse the administration of our Governor, and that wc deem it of the highest im portance to the Democratic Party, I and to all the people of tho? State, that he iihould be our stau lard bear er in the coming campaign, and that we hereby pledge oursolvei to giv_' to Wade Hampton *eur heart) and unanimous support. The convention tbcu adjourned fine die. Ja&. F. I/.t.ah, President Jas. S. II by wan i>, Secretary. - ? ? ma- - ? irwn - Gen. Jas. F. Izli e. It will be seen by the proceeding of the County Democratic Convention in another column in this is-me, that the above named gentleman has been re elected Chnirm n of the Democra tic Executive Committee for Orange burg County It is diflien 11 to Hud a man in whom are combined the qualities necessary for a successful political leader, and especially is this true in a country where t'io op posing party is so strong and deter mined as this. A political expe rience, acquired under the teaching of the most exciting and turbulent times; a prudence, embodying accura cy of judgment and prompt action; a moral courage, based upon a con sciousuess of right and a resolute w ill; ami an honesty of purpose, winning the confidence of those he serves? these arc all necessary qualifications of a political leader to insure the suc cess of bis cause in an exciting cam paign and we are greatly mistaken in the man if our citizens d > not find these qualifications happily combined in the person of our future leader, Gen. Ja.?. F. Izlar. With tho advice of such mcu as compo.so the Execu tive Committee to aid him, the futurj looks not halfso douhtful as wj first supposed. Let a willing and uuitod party hold up his hands and cheer his heart in the midst of the c inflict und wo feel sure that Democracy will prcvaiT. ^Whilst we congratulate the county on the re-election of Gen. Iz lar, we know that there are both for him aud for our citizens months of toil and self sacrifice but a glori ous reward in the victory they shall o bluin. Gov. Wade Hampton. For more than a month it was announced that Gov. Hampton would put i he Democratic hall in motion at Anderson near the foot of the Blue lvidge Mountains and give it an im peius that will carry it triumphantly through the entire length of the State to the sea. The scones on Wednes day all along the line 01 railroad from Columbia to Anderson was hut the fulfilment of the prediction then so confidently made. Scarcely had the train, which carried the Governor and party, cleared the surroundings of Columbia before multitudes of j enthusiastic citizens began to crowd the stations along the line of the route- Tho first intimation of the ovation, which was dev< loping at every point, was given at Prosperity where a large crowd of people were in wailing to sec and, perhaps, hear the Governor. From tho platform of tho cars he made a short but eloquetij speech which was ended by the train moving on. At New berry over three thousand assembled around the depot and as the train rolled to its position cheer after cheer went up as the mass closed around to welcome their chief. Three military oompanks, one of which was colored, wore drawn up in line to do tho honors of tho occa sion. An old dray was quiokly converted into a stngo and tho Gover nor, amid the olieers and shouts of tho multitude, stood as only Hampton ca n stand until order was scoured. He thanked them for this manifestation of their confidence, assured them that the good of South Carolina was the only principle which s'iaped his course and would continue to be tho guide of bis conduct, recalled to their minds the words uttered last \.;.r. that be would be tho Governor of tho whole people, to-day these words wo e veiified, and predicted a glorious victory for the Democratic party nex t Full if our people will only cultivate harmony and good will. At Helena a crowd of colored people gathered nround the cars aud about the windows to see him. Gov. Hnnpton bowed and address a few words to theciowd and as tho whistle sounded and the train moved slowly on, a middle aged colored woman stretched her arms toward tho gover nor ami shouted : "Governor Hamp ton ! you stag Governor, ice's had a butter time since you was made Gover nor than we'u bad since the tear." At Suluda, Ninty-six, Greenwood, Hodges, Ilouea Path, indeed every where, Governor Hampton had either to make a speech, or go out on the platform to bo looked at and shake hands with his admirers of both sexes and colors. At Anderson the train ran up amid iho thunder of cunuou, the cheers of the multitude and the music of tho baud. A lino of color ed torch bearers wero in waiting to escort the party through the brilliant ly illuminated town to the city hull where the last speeches of the day were made, after which all retired to enjoy rest for morrow's work. Political Amnesty. One of the last nets of the General Assembly was a concurrent resolution investing tho Governor with the power to cause to be entered an order of nolle, pros in any ense which may nrise under the facts reported by the Joint Investigating Committee. This may be all web enough with such a man us Hampton, but it is giving a latitude scarcely judicious w here fraud has been found to be so general among officials of the gov ernment. Let every leading Radical white or black, jS'orlhcrn or Southern man pay the lull penalty of his rascality. Let every important official whofeathereJ his nest at the public expense, answer for bis crimes. Let every Democratic member of the old Legislature who fingered the pie bo taught the whole some lesson that honesty is the best policy even iu politics. Let only the dupes nud tools employed by the^c head officials be pitied and pardoned. This is not vindictiveue^s, but it is meeting the demnud-i of justice and the requirements of the times. If any other course is tobe pursued it. were far better for Congrtss, if such be possible, to enact that tho years between 1868 aud 78 be forj?t*?J}^yj||fc not a page of its disgraceful history bo written ? ??? - - ? - Anderson. On Wednesday last Gov. Hampton Gen. Moise, Gnu. McGowan, Judges Mockey aud Cooke and Cols. Coth ran and Hoyt made the first tpeeches of the campaign. Auderson had the honor of opening the bust campaign, and again she sends out. a political eucbusiusm which will not cease to widen until the sea-board ?hall seud hack to the mountains an answer con j veying the joyful news of a complete and glorious victory of the broad aud I liberal principles enunciated to-day? 1 principles which will return Hainp I ton to the Governor's Chair and a full Democratic Legislntjre to the halls of our capitol. These principles have ulready re stored peace and partial prosperity to the people throughout our State; have given safety to our lives and protection to our property; and have secured the supremacy of the law and the faithful administration of the Government under houost Democratic officials. The horde of radical vultures, who lor so long a time preyed upon tho vitals of our Slate, havo been driven away to their places of refuge, and Carolinian once more brcntho the pure air of their native climate. H such have been the results of tho efforts of 1876, who can predict the greater conse quences of the efforts of 1878. Let harmony prevail among our peoplo and a oneness of purpose character ise the eilbrt of ev?ry section, then shall next Jsovcmber place our State in a position to make hor fu ture as glorious as her past has bcon. Tho following resolutions were voted upon and unanimouily adop ted by the multitude of citizens, who met together'at Apderson from all the counties in the upper part of the Stute. These resolutions will be the key note of the preseut campaign. Let them be, with equal unanimity, adopted iu every county of the State: Be itre*olvt(?t 'That we havo in creased confidence in tho wisdom and statesmanship of Governor Hampton to make the future of South Carolina as pure and glorious as was her past and that wo are assured that her honor and welfare arc securo in his hands. "Resolved, That it is the sense of this meeting that Governor Hampton should he nominated for re-election, and we do hereby nominate him as the choice of the Democracy in An derson for re-election at the ensuing election, and that we pledge him our undivided support. "Resolve.*?, That wo recognize only ?wo political parties in this State, the Democratic and the Radical, and that we will hold in contempt all who shall seek under the name of Inde pendents, or any other name, to di vide the Democratic party and thus establish Radical domination and plunder. The Special Court. Oho of the last acts of tho Legisla ture was to elect Judges A. 1\ Al drich of the Second Circuit, T Thomp son, eight circuit and J. II. Hudson, fourth circuit to compose the Special Court for the trial of the Bon 1 ques tion. 'I he personal character for integrity and legal ability, which these gentlemen possess, is a guaran tee that all questions submitted to their judgment w ill be honestly and fairly tried; and that, all persons will be satisfied w ith the decision given in 'each case. It is to be hoped that tho character of (he Court will prevent pro ouged und expensive litigation and bastin a .-peedy adjustment of the public debt question. ?ov. Hampton's Visit to Anderson. 'Ihe ovation to Governor Hamp ton to-day, recalling the enthusiastic demonstrations during the campaign of 1876. has been received every where with the greatest eclat. At Newherry the tra:n stopped twenty minutes, where several thousand people were gathered. Gov- Hamp ton and Gen. Mobespoke, and were cheered at every sentence. At Pros perity, Silver Street, Ninety-Six, Greenwood, Hodges, Honen Bath and Belton, similar greetings were accord ed t~. the Governor, who responded briefly and pertinently. On his arrival here, the demonstra tion was exceedingly One. The town was illuminated, the military w is out in full force, the band was playing, and a line of torches was carried by Ojdored nieu _J[po,ui _t.!te depot to the public square. Gov. Hampton and (.leu. Moise again responded to the welcome, addressing 2,000 citizens. The scene on the p i.ibliu a j ure was beautiful beyond description With the public buildings aud private houses illuminated from garret to ha ement. A notable feature everywhere has been the enthusiasm of the colored population.? Columbia Register. Character. Character is a fortune. It pays a better dividend than bank or rai'road, stock. The young man who goes forth in the world with an unim peachable character, can never suffer permanent defeat. The blows which he receives fiom his antagonists will bound back from such a character, and all the injury they inflict will be upon him who gives them. In every emergency it is the man of character who is sought. Those lacking this beautiful jewel may for a timo crowd themselves forward, and so long as nothing of importance is at s'nke, be permitted to enjoy prominence in state and social affairs; but when the crisis comes, when government is threatened, when society is menaced, when it is a special honor to be promi nent, character is scrutinized, and only he whose character is spotless, is selected to lead. At such times, brilliant reputations fade as the meteor fades, and their possessors find that reputation is ouo j j thing ?ad character quite another, 'they then regret that this important difference had not been thought of before. But tho world seeme to learn little from those lessons which indi viduals so ofton loarn under severo circumstances. The world, us a rule, is careful of its reputation. Tho question is not what I am, but what will the world think of me? With a knowledge o? the ndvantagos of character, may eveiy young man who reads this, Btrive to live in such a way that he can respect himself, and be utterly regardless, so long as ho is right of of the opinion of the world. The following singular advertise ment appeared in one of our western oxchnuges : Wanted, a man?!o elope with my wife. He must be a man of courage and strong as an ox. He must be one with a healthy constitution anil be able to do with little sleep. A sailor would suit best, ono that's been accustomed to big blows. My wife has many good points for a man who could appreciate them. I cannot. She can talk faster than a railroad whistle can scream. She doesn't care much for the nmeuities, but is very powerful on the acerbities of life. She would be a good assistant in a vinegar factory, she's so sour, and would be a noble companion for a man living in a country where there are plenty of bears, she's so powerful in hugging. To any man who feels like enticing my wife to elope with him, 1 will pay 650 and the expense of the elopement. Should my bless ing be considered of any consequence, I'll throw it in. For further particu lars, apply to Henry Jinks. . ?- i-3 - ? 0m - - A counterfeit of the new silver dollar is reported already in circula tion, mi excellent imitali >n of the genuine coin, from which it differs only in weight, being lighter by .about ten grains, and containing some eighty-three cents worth of silver bullion. As comparatively few per sona are familiar with the appcaranco o the genuine new dolar, the cottu t: rfeit is dangerous.
