For tlio past few days there have been arriving in this city, from dilfer ent pai ls of the State, representative Democrat* who were summ ?nid to take part in a conference to-day, at the headquarters of the Democratic State Committee in St. James Hotel.

A correspondent from New York city represents .Tammany and Kelly ism as visibly on the wane during the last week. The, leaders are weaken ing very much. They live by poli tics and, as is always the case with such men, they are looking after their bread and butter. They are begin ning to understand the situation and realize that the death knell of Tarn many is certain it they persist in their opposition, and with it goes their occupation, which is otimc-set-k ing. Tho defection in their camp is represented as increasing. From this aspect of affairs we think tho Demo cracy can count on New York again as of ynrc in spite of tho gigantic ,'iolt, c.-pe^ally when we consider the fact that ine uj?j.:?.: ?!? Or 'r.t,.??.,vuiv has greatly strengthened the Kmin stiti parly in the rural districts with the liberal and right-thinking MC:i ol' the Slate. The State University.

' The subject for consideration was the report ol the special Committee on the organization of the Agricul tural and Mechanical school in the University. The plan was favorably considered and regarded as feasible, and highly important, and it is be lieved will soon be consummated. Fur the Orangcbiiv;? Times. Sunday School Celebration at Coiigaree. Mr. Editor: If there is one religious gathering to ho preferred to another, it is the assembling ol a Sun,lay school for a celebration or pic-nic; lor what can be more pleasant then to see all the children of a neighborhood gathered together with their parents and friends lor the encouragement of such a cause as a Sunday school ? On the fourth Saturday in Sent, it was our pleasure to attend one. of the pleasnutest Sunday school pic nics wo ever attended. At about 11 o'clock the children commenced gathering in from all directions. The table had been previously arranged by the worthy Superintendent, air. V. \V. Horlong. At about Pio'clock prayer was ollbred in behalf of the Sunday school, Superintendent and teachers, alter which followed a re view, the scholars acquitting them selves admirably. Then followed an addressby Rev. D K. Spigner, which contained humor with instruction to excel any lhing I had ever heard in the way of a Sunday school address. Alter the address the Superintendent requested all to vacate the bouse for a low minutes. The scholars were then called in one at a time ami each ttgrceably surprised by a bundle of candy; then they passed on out atiho I other door, so tho surprise was to all. Each teacher then took charge of his cluss, formed them in two ranks and stood till dinner was announced, then all marched gallantly to the table where a dinner was spread that showed that the ladies around Cougaroo know jnst how to cook and prepare a pic-nic to please the children, and some that are not children too, for it seemed that all present enjoyed tho dinner as much as they did the address. When all had done full justice to the inner man, there was taken up of the fragments several baskets and boxes full. Then followed speeches by some of the scholars, and short, and appropriate addresses by the .Superintendent, which showed that his whole soul wai with the Sunday school. All praise and honor is due Mr. Herlong for tho efficient manner in which he has managed the Sunday school, he being the only Superintendent that has ever carried a Sunday school success fully through a summer at Cougar ce Church since it has been a Churrh. He is a young man who ma'-'cs no great display of religious ideas, but it scemi that his nature is especially adapted to the instruction of children, and when the Church selected him for Superintendent, it w.ia i step in the right direction, ami the right, man was put in the right place. Cong Ait ke. [For the Orangehurg Times. Our Homesteads. Let ns Deantify Thein. jlfr. Editor: Perm it me to call the attention of some of the mauy renders of your valuable paper to the importance of making their homes more attractive, more pleasant. The beauties seen around tho habitation of man, ex hibit in the main, the reflex of a happy spirit and a cultivated intel lect ? Rnnh ij the onndition of many ol the rural seats of Orangehurg County. Your kind attention there fore will be claimed whilst we pre sent some of the prominent features of the following names : Oaklaud, Ashland, Glebeland and Cedarland. The firat will be readily recognized by the number of beautiful oaks that encircle the dwelling and farm lot. These chroniclers of time-progress are carrying out the grand design of the husbandman, not only in beautifying his place, but of adding something far better than beauty and shade, tho stimulus to .study the works of naturo and from its silont and yet instruc tive lessons, to rise higher and yet higher in the scale of human intellect until, like the representative of Bashan, they shall stand as pillars and finger-boards to the passer-by, by which he may profit if he will. The next may be gtyled the seat of pleasure. Benevolence being writ ten upon every thing that imparts notoriety to the site; it may not be out of place to suppose, that, in tho study of nature and of art, in all their vari ed relations, the mind will become more or less imbued with the spirit they inculcate; and therefore it has become* the seat of pleasant associa tions not only to the family eirele but also to tho friend and stranger. This devoted spot surrounded with so many beauties has its counter-part only in the intelligence and refinement of its happy inmates, i Glebelaud also stands forth in tho bright category. Offering a 'Cart blancho" to the pencil. The diagram ol the site and farm gives a distinct view of its extent, modus of culture, and promise. Tho habitation is en circled by beautiful shrubbery, culled from the bright nursery of naturo. In front of tho dwelling may bascon, a parterre skillfully laid out. Tho emblems of appreciation constancy, must have been traced by a delicato hand, the two largo hearts fronting each other, separated by a walk re presenting "the vale which the sweet waters meet." Tho two rotundas or mounds "ivith many other designs equally significant lill the area. In an this we see both tas'eaud refine* ment illustrated. May the living pic. twes within recr be mirrored in the beauties without. Cederland?This lovely spot is clot lied with the badge of perpcrtuity. Its claims upon the happy family are echoed back with notes of uioeeiett accord. May its perennial caste ever encircle the hah tat ion, render ed sacred by many pleasant associa tions; and may it always be ? verdaut oasis, where the pure in heart may dwell aud place upon its record so mi bright mouument to its praise. Til ETA. How He Convinced Them. Ex-Governor J. W. Tbrockraorton certainly understands all the arts of an old Texan. In his speech defend* ing Ed. Bomar, at Gainesville, after haying spoken about an hour he said : ''Gentlemen of the jury?It is said by the prosccutiou that because the deceased was in his shirt sleeve* when killed,be bad no pistol." Here Mr. Throckmorton pulled off his coat and stood before the jury in bis shirt sleeves. "Would you say," continued Mr. Throckmorton, "that I am uot arm ed because I am iu my shirt sleeves. Look ! do you see my arms Y* cried be, holding up his hands. No signs of arms could be seen. Mr. Tbrockraorton then drew a, pistol J'rom under his left arm, anoth er from under bis right, one from each boot, and a huge bowie knife from the back of his neck, placing them upon the table. ' You see, gentlemen, though in my shirt sleeves, I could be well armed.'* . This was a clincher, and it carried the point, entirely destroying the argument ol the prosecution.?Dallas Herald. He Calls Them "Gentlemen." Grant's speech to the gathering of Ex-Federal and Ex-Confederate sol ft;*?ra nt Ooif'.nnd CaL. was not suffi ciently stalwart to suit Z. Chandler or Blaine er Sherman. Gen. Sher man refused to give his countenance to a fraternization of Union and Con federate soldiers, and even, Hayes nppars to think that the war is still going ou. Grant, however, wont so far as to say: Gentlemen of the ttco Armies and Karies: I am very proud of the welcome you have given me to-day. I am particularly happy to see the good will aud cordiality existing be tween the soldiers of the two armies, aud I. have an abiding faith that this good lceling will always exist. Thus united we have nothing to fear from any nation iu the world." Ho actually calls the ex rebels gcntlomen, and is proud of tho wel come which they iu part gave him. If Grant were au expert in gentlemen, his opinion might be more valuable. Still this conccssiou will be a source of sadness to Z. Chandler aud Deacon McKce.? Baltimore Gazette. Good Will Between tho People of the State. We deem it essential to say a word or so to the people of South Carolina upon tho ftbovo subject. God knows we do so in no spirit of dictation, but simply as a citizen having nothing te ask and nothing to seek but peace and good will between all classes and sections of our fellow-citizens and of the State we own aud cherish as a common mother. We fear our un oflice-soeking people are losing sight of the common good in tho personal partisanship we are indulging in some localities. To shout for this or that man is catching, and depraving as well. We may in the end lose Bight of South Cnrolina and our own su preme welfare in the angry porsenal broils into which we may fall. We are the best of us but human, and when the feeling of opposition is fully aroused we may wreck a world in bet ting on a fly. " Vcrbum sat.,>?CoZunt? bia Register. mm * --*mm?
