The bear which was reported in our neighborhood sonic days ago, was a verity, a:', we have hud sulll cient cvulem-e 1 > show. A hunt was organized among our young men. who went, hut could lind ho trace of his having been about for several days, and it was generally believed that this tramp had spent not more than twenty-four hours in our swamps, and had gone away to parts unknown to us. The lit t lo excite ment consequent, upon his presence, was rapidly subsiding among the whites, when it was caught up by the colored population, and t lien it was that tin; wildest and most ex aggerated stories were hourly repeat "d: His track vavled In 'i?.e from i that of it dog to that of an ( lephnnt, went beyond oven that and reached the moderate dimonf.ions of the head 'ob dat bar'l." Eyes,ears, mouth, each particular part was specially dwelt upon and magnified 500 di a meters. I noticed that' ti.o larger tile 'darkies eyes were and the more protuding, the Inrg'cr the bear looked ' to him. It is surprising how the poor brute could stand such stretch ing. as before they finished, his tail (which is stnnge for a bear) was as long as the Hag stall'on ude Kail' hiiildin," arid bears had been report eri of till sizes, between ;t hog and a liox.carl! The uninitiated would'havc cnhcluded that there was ten full regiments, and that all had not been seen. His iigility and physical pow ers in turn were dilated upon and the most wonderful stories told, and the rtfnsl astonishing feats of strength attributed to him. He could jump ?lot) yards at a single leap, "iahe n tree in he arm an' tw is em right oil' pnioWC," and at. lust lo cap the cli max of wonders lie was seeii by ono fellow, sitting upon liifHinunehes in the lop of a pine 700 feel high, near ( 'nl. Folder's fish I rap, in Ettisto t.'.vamp complaicently brushing a way liie gnats mid inosquitos with a dried cow hide as a fan. Strange lie was noi smoking n pipe! How could Joe Cain muster up courage to attack such n monster single liandodV lint hedid, and re turned,' like the noble Roman exclaim lug ucm\ vilify visi! TKe night was dark. Murky clouds veiled out the stars. Creeping mists spread over iiill and dale. No ?ephyr stirred?so still that we could only say of things "they be." Joo went and placed himself directly in the path where the monster took his nightly prome nade. The extreme heat caused I'.ruin to delay until a late hour his usual ramble. Heavy sleep closed down the eyelids of this champion who was to get so much the better of the majestic ' breech-loaders as to bear the palm alone." Flow long he slept he knows not, but he woke to see the object of his vigil before him. "The heart of the sleeper beats high in his breast/' He arose and girded himself for the fray?he ran his eye along tin' trusly barrel?the "red glare" of his rille "painted dcatli on the sky"?the surrounding forest caught tip the echo, and bore it away from hill lop to hill top?doc with drawn bowie rushes into "the nnmi nent breach" to finish a contlict so gallantly begun?but "hunter-boy'" wou to thy dream of delight ! There he lay stretched out in his death throes?no use to plunge.your bowie to the hilt and sever the small thread of life still remaining?he is dead! lint "aihazenieiit confronts him with images dire"?it is uobear at all?it is, Mr. Kirk liobmson's red yearling calf! ( '-est. fallen, Joe gathers tip the spoils, reports the facts?pays damages, and so ends the "teapot tempest." Mr. JCdiior: As nominations are in order, allow meto nominate every man in Crange burg County, lor any ollicc the Con vention may give them. Hut let me make a suggestion to the Convention, which will soon meet to.elect men to fill the County oillces. Then" 5* a certain (dement (dangers one) which is always ve>\v prominent, among us. and thai is whiskey which is running the County; and now to the point When a in tin is put before the Con vention as a candidate, ask him this question: 1 >o you drink spiritus liquors? If he says yes, then drop him, like a hot brick, and bring in another horse, again he may say no, and at the same time he engaged in the sale of the same, drop him quick er than any one else, because he is the one that does more harm to the County than nny one else. I nm a farmer and know of what I speak. What wcmake is by hard labor, ami when we get through a days work we would like to lay down at night in peace, but instead of that we are thinking of the rogues stealing our cotton and currying the same to these very liquor shops, which are .so rouinous to us all. 1 feel proud of the last Grand Jury, who put such a tax on those who want to engage in it. Now Gknti.kmks of the Conven tion, don't put. a whiskey seller in the Held, or any man who will buy seed cot ion from any one after sun down, hul look all the while to the interest of the farmer, who hears most of the btirden. We have among us plenty <d" good men In send to the Legislature, and 1111 all tho ofliccs j without going into (heir ranks. IV j ware of ih>- ol'dceseekers. Von can hardly turn a corner in our Burg, but you have sbnic candidate* after you, ;| jl?;i.hg \ our aid in the t "onvon lion. This is wrong, no bod\ wants 16 work. All want ollicc, and arc so ready to say what should be done for the people, ai -I It* he Was elected look out for the many great things he would do. We have a right to an nounee whom we please, but let all be quiet till that boy meets, and when i hey say such and such are nominal ed, 1 b< n pi fi >r i hem with all your power. Don't think thai your vote is all that i.- necessary, but work da\ ami night iil! the victory is won. Kxciisc me for trespassing on \oui time, bnl I think it the duty of some 0'ic to inen I ion I he above fuels. Fan; Pi.av. luhtn:' (~>r<tut,-bu tj Times: The i ime for i he meeting of I hi Con it I \ Democrat ic Nominating Con I venliou i-- neural hand. Thereon numerous candidates in the Held. L'he town of Oraugeburg, a* usual, has her complement for the ofliccs thut />"//.' We hnvenol heard of any candidate from that "favored Sec tiou" for County Commissioner, pre sumabiy because "it tloes not pay." They have a candidate for Clerk, (Sheriff, Judge of Probate and Sena tor. The question that we desire to loach upon is, shall they have all the meal and the country all the bom ? If left with them we feel certain such would bo the case, but shall it be left with them? It should not. They have about one-ninth of the voting Democrats of the County, and arc therefore entitled to one ollicc out of nine. The Convention will be composed of probably one hundred and twenty delegates. Of this number the town will send about twelve, and yet they claim the right to name at least three out of the twelve ollices, and they the three (hat pay. In the face of these facts the duty of the country delegates is clear. It is true that \ hen told the country ?lelegales will come with minds of .heir own, and will not he influenced by the Court House maynatcs, the\ (the town people) smile and reply. "Oh! they always say that until the time comes, when Col. so and so, fr in the town has to tell them how to vote." Still, we assert again that the country : elegates will n t be in lluenccd by the town, but act upon their own judgment and good sense. Let those who are chosen to repre-" sent the Democrats of the country settle this question once for all time, ami show the town that they have rights and the ability to maintain them. The country is entitled to and should say who arc to till the ollices. Let them look well to tin meat, and : ot be content to bite the hones. The country bus no right to complain of rings when, as shown above they have the power to control the Convention and c heck the evil influences of such combinations. Will they do it? is the question. In conclusion, we say to our conn try friends, look well to your laurels and don't he "shared out." Already we hear of offers of compromise from the country to the town, and would ask why any compromise :it tillV Itditvr not into such unholy alliances. Don't barter away the wishes and rights of your constituents. It will In; urged that their candidates have none other than patriotic (*') motives in seeking oflice, and that "inone\ is the root of all evil." Remember that yours .arc just as patriotic, and that those w ho make these assertions, cry coulinually for "more root." We have no reeling against our friends of Orangeburg, and write w hat we have written for the good of t he people. X. * Editor Or mgeburg Time*: The first of August 1880, being:i holy day (say the sabbath) we arose early in the morning anil drove along through the meadows and pica sanl groves, and the beautiful song stcrs flitting from branch to branch of the tall oak ami pine, and t he sing ing of these beautiful songsters made us happy on our road to the (.'attic (.'reck Camp-meeting, at the same time thinking wc would lie made more happy by hearing the songs of saints, and the words of God illusi ra ted by able divines. Wc soon landed and heard the trumpet sound call ing all to appear and hear what the promise of the Lord was to poor mortal man. We repaired to the altar of worship. Wc heard beauti ful singing, ami an excellent exortti lion. All seemed to be good, wc perfectly happy and delighted, noth ing could give us more happiness*. Hut we soon found that rapacious op pi c. sion of the poor, and oslent at ions g merosity to tbxs rich, seem to go hand in hand. What large s.miis are often grabbed or w asted in feasts for their rich friends, compared with the scanty pittance w hich is given to the 1.r neighbors that was situated on the camp ground prepared to give bread to the hungry. Hut the rich or ostentatious, only would call those whom were dros*j 1 in wltal they thought was a rich man's apparel, and the poor went unnoticed, still lu iiig m ar neighbors. Persons ap pear to be neighbors, and uro often slighted, nol that they can- for t'teir rich provisions, only for friend ly acts. Give n dog a po-iee of bread, although In* seems cross, he beeom >s pleased und Ion.I of you, but, it does not take bread to make man fond of you, only .-.how him respect und he is \ our friend, t hen w hat good tan be expected from this OS t cubit ions profusions. Rev. Ilrown's explnnations and practical observations were grand, i was admirable, so much so that I thought about old limes, in the days of old father Towns. I remember he came walking up to n tent with u stange young man, ami said brother Sandel here i.s a poor young man that has not been eared for, he has nol had any bread to eat. I heard of his death the other day. I know there in no need lohe sorry, for lie is caught up into high Heaveu. We fared Sumpliously, hut our neighbors had no baud in it, those who called us to partake with them we believe good hospitable fa indies, they know nothing about ostentation. 1 must say there were imitations of t be parable of the rich man and I .a/.a rus. The ministers of the gospel did their duty, for they warned all to lice from the wrath to come, and lay hold on the leaching of the Savior, so may we be all guided in the truthful way of Heaven.
