The meeting uf the Oraugmburg Democratic Club for the election of delegates to the Convention waa held at Firemen's Hall on last Tuesday eveninif, pursuant, to call of the Presi dent The utmost harmony prevailed throughout, and a good delegation eha ted.

There was a large attendance, ami great enthusiasm manifested. htltfor Orttttf/i'littrif Titties: Al ter partially recovering from the blues caused by several cifcumstau ces combined. 1 once more trouble you with a batch of nonsense. It is really distressing tot hinU how poor human beings will allow themselves to build castles to he blown down. ami stiller disappointment, and Ilten revive ami begin (lit* same thii g over again. 1 will just give you a lew items of ms experience i.. Ibis busi ness. As I lohl you before, as soon a- 1 could raise the fund-- by selling col ton, I would semi in my Card an i ouuciug myself :is a candidate for t In- much co\ eted otllee of < lerk of Court. Now von don't know how closely 1 watched that cotton, and it scorned as if it would never open. 1 almost wished sometimes it would take rust, shed ofl'and open. I stein ally thought of pulling oil' the bolls and putting timtu in the sunshine to open. All ''.i>. time we had rain nearly every day. Cotton ju--t kepi growing and would not rust ti bit. And then the County KxcctitiveCom mittee gels in a hurry and appoints linearly Convention, und even this would not. make eottou rust. Now can just imagine how I f( It. Well, I hud tb : bl?ea in style. Spr a . f :<rj frier, lz :iis?tovered my condition, and to ec?nc(ice, told we this card busi ness ?!i(\:." ?. ftvc conch force any bow, and it was not likely the Convention would not ice t hose cards, bill w ould j order dark horse-, and if I would -ill electioneer I would come in a- i dark h?rst1; but the same trouble was there I hud no friends, so I thought I would not go to tow n to electioneer us some do, been use you meet so ninny Inger beer friends there who tool von nnd don't stick as close to you us they do to tin- beer. I have seen candidates taken in by this class of friends. So after thinking over nil of this, I concluded to go out through the country, and leave my tobacco home, even sons to make expenses as light as possible. My idea was to talk to the old men mostly, as the young men arc generally candidates for something: and not because they arc too lazy to work, oh no! we don't have 'them kind" in this County, but have many like myself, not lazy i lud born tired So I approached a ! I gray hailed old man, whom I have openly heard speak of his public life, j and to my surprise he told me he thought 1 would <uit splendidly for aj call* boy. I thanked hint for the compliment, as I thought that meant 1 was mit green at all: but when he added, ??prov ided you don't get over in e pastuie," 1 w as ready to go home, but concluded I would go further from home, where folks don't know me so well. I soon found out it was a goo<! way to ascertain the opinion of other folks of ourselves, and you are likely to lind that they don't think of you as you do of your self, ami I am satisfied there will be tunny who will make the same dis covery soon. I toll you these cam paigns are great institutions, by which you can find out yourself, and other folks, too. Well, since all my other plans have failed, I shall try the dark horse plan. Hut how will the Convention know who is the dark horse? I am afraid I will miss this chance too, as 1 know of several wV arc darker than I am. Couldn't I paint up a littlc'r Now. if it wore a green horse they wanted, my chance? would be two to one against the field, if Mr. Gray-hair knows anything. I have one consolation, however, that is. if I am deceived I will have big 1'olK.d fur company, as 1 know several who will be as badly deceived as a great many are about their cotton crop, of w hich I w ill speak hereafter, if you desire, but will not mix p -li t ies a nd crops. Well, as my plans have all been (hanged, and foule Olio has taken up my old name. "Many Voters," I will change, and sign myself, Yours politically, Dakk House. Okanoeiuim;, S. <'.. Aug. IS, 18801 JCtUtnr OrHH'n'hurij Time*: I'ermit me the use of :t small space in your columns, in reply to ipiite a number of correspondents, both in your ow n columns, ami those of the Dvmwrot, the burden of whose song is. the ''Court House Wing." It is amusing, and would appear ridicul ous, (were it not for the apparent earnestness of sonic of your corres pondents, who live distant from the Court House,) to notice to what ex cess and extreme of language, Ihev permit themselves logo, in denounc ing what I hey term the rin /. a lid I hell in ending these communications, (us was tin- ease a few numbers back pi your |?aper) admit that they had no personal know ledge of the existence of this >?/?//, but are so im formed by others. We noticed in an address, delivered before a Grange, a short time since, ami published in your columns, the same excess of langu age. of which we are .speaking, if flu* address to which we refer, should be read by one lifly years hence, it would convey the idea that the fur liters of to day, were placed in irons, incarcerated in prisons, ami every righ< of free born citizens taken from tlieni, and wen- in very truth the slave-, and servants of the merchant, the lawyer, and all men of all pro fessions: in the liglil of the very ex- j exacted, position, which our farmers justly occupy. All this is simply ridiculous. In the same line of thought, we notice a communication in your last issue signed "X," in which he speaks of the///'//ami its inllueuces in the most extravagant manlier, advising his country friends to look well to their ??laurels," ami retiring to the rumors of a comprom ise, ftteud* with them,to cntoj not, j into such "unholy alliances,' ci tu other words, to have nothing to do with the unclean thing, can any t hing good come out of Nasaloth (Oraugoburg) V or euu we hope to handle pitch and not soil the fingert}. This is t he true meaning of some of tin communications we have been rending for the pmd lev weeks, ami all based, on the liierest rumor of a rhuj :.t the Court House, ami can re ???? ii ? ii PT^~'I? .1. . .? suit in nothing but evil to all tho people. I venture the assertion, thnt :it no Court [louse in the Stute, enn there bo found a purer, or more de voted body of Democrats, than :ii Orangeburg. During the campaign ol"7(i I was in a pTisition t<> know the amount of time,of brain ami of money, that was required of those who live at the County seat, ami represented the Democracy from the Court House Club. I think it is a well acknow ledged fact, that it would be well nigh impossible, to run a successful campaign without the hearty co operation of the town people, and I fail to see the justice or sense, of follow ing so closely, with the cry of nil//, which has an existence only in the minds of a few, w ho perhaps are not so unselfish in the end they have before them, as they would w ish us to believe. In conclusion, Mr. Kditor, you will forgive inc. ifl intimate that ye Kdi tors are somewhat responsible for the credence these rumors have gained, as creators of public opinion and leaders of the same, with n know ledge, that there is not a shadow of truth in this oil repeated story of a riiii/. With a well timed and esirinst word, you could have convinced vour readers, ofthe non-existence of snob a thing us a ('mot J/diisc Hint/. S. Mr, Editor: j? Relieving it would bo gratifying to your many readers to know that the Willow Swamp "Straightout" Demo cratic Club is yet in the land of the living, and is wide awake to a sense of their duty, and in response to a call of our worthy President, Dr. Dowling, met at Mr. J. W. Reed's residence, on Saturday, the 14th inst., at about 4 o'clock. Dr. Dowling called the Club to order, and iu a few well chosen rem irks, stated that the Club was entitled to four d? legal es accord ing to their number enrolled, in the. coming Convention. It was moved ami carried that, every man nominate his own delegate, and that the four receiving the high est number of votes be the choice of the Club. The following mimed gen tlemen were duly eleetetl: C T Dowling, .) K Williamson. .1 II linker ami 15 D Moss, which gave entire ?fitittinctioii. t ^ It was then moved and carriid that the delegates be instructed as "o wdto would be their choice for the County ollieos! upon w hich Dr. d. ('. Ilolttmn was nominated for llepie seniative. ami received the iinani '.nous v<do of the club. Mr. .loseph Uiddnson was noini mited for Olerk of Court, and like wise, received the' entire SlippOlt of the club. M r. ('. \\. (J lover was I hen nominated for Judge of Probate, and Benjamin P. Izlar was nominated as his opponent, which took up some little time in discussing their merits and claims upon the peo ple, which resulted in favor of Mr. (ilover. The next eliort was to lind a suitable man for the Treasurer's ollice, w hich is the most important of them all. and t he < luh could think of no innu more worthy ihnn Mr. Rob ert ( opes. ,,i.il the delegates were in structed especially t<> recommend that he be retained in his present ollice. Mr. Panning was nominated for road Commissioner and sustained by the club. The delegates wen* also in s( r net cd hy the club to recom mend thai the Auditor's and Master in Kipiity cilices ho abolished. I he Seii.'ttorship was not men tioned, w hieb. I think, was an over sight on our part. So. Mr. Kditor, you see. that we are not scllish, ami ask only but little with the hope of getting mir wishes.
