The bear which was reported in
our neighborhood sonic days ago,
was a verity, a:', we have hud sulll

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.
