. The Sumter Watchman was founded
in 1850 and the True Southron in
1866. The Watchman and Southron
bow lias the combined circulation and
influence of both of the old papers, and
is manifestly the best advertising
medium in Sumter.
Amendments to the Constitution.
At the general election in November
the voters of "the State will decide upon
the adoption of the proposed amend
ments to the Constitution of the State.
. We gje the following synopsis of the
JointResolutions respecting the same,
in order that our readers, being acquain
ted with their nature, may cast an in
telligent ballot:
1. Joint resolution to amend Section
8, Article 8, of the Constitution, re
specting the Disqualification of Electors.
It is proposed that Sec. 8, Art 8, be
emended by inserting therein after the
word "murder" the following words:
Burglary, Larceny, Perjury, Forgery
or other infamous crime, so that the
Section when amended shall read as
follows i The General Assembly shall
ever pass any law that will deprive any
of the citizens of this State of the right
of suffrage, except for treason, murder,
burglary, larceny, perjury: forgery, or
any other infamous crime, or dueling,
whereof the persons shall have been
duly tried and convicted. Those in
; javor of the amendment shall deposit a
ballot with the following words printed
er written thereon: "Constitutional
Amendment." Yes. If opposed, No.
The foregoing Joint Resolution was
adopted at the regular Session^Feb. S,
and approved Feb. 9, 1882.
2. Joint Resolution proposing an
amendment to Sec. 11, Art. 2, of the
Constitution, relating to the time of
holding elections.
The provision of this Resolution is to
amend the Constitution, Sec. 11, Art.
2, to read as follows: "The General
Election for Senators and Representa
tives shall be held in every second year,
in such manner^ at such time, and
at such place, as the Legislature
may provide." Those in favor of the
amendment will vote Yes. Those op
posed, iVo, as in the other case. Adopt
ed and approved at Extra Session, in
July, 1882.
& Joint resolution proposing an al
teration and amendment to Sec. 3, Art.
2, of the Constitution, relating to the
forming of new Counties.
It is proposed to alter and amend the
present law forbidding tbe formation of
new Counties of less than six hundred
and twenty-five square miles, so that a j
new County may be formed containing
an area of only four hundred square
miles, and a population of the one-hun- j
dred-and-twenty-fourth part of .the
whole number of inhabitants of the
State. Those favoring the formation of
lew Counties will vote Yes Those
opposed, No.
Each of these Joint Resolutions pro- j
vide* that if a majority of the qualified
voters of the State vote in favor of any
amendment so proposed, and two-thirds
of each branch of (he General Assembly
shall, after such election, and before
another, ratify the said amendment by
yeas and nays, it shall be and form a
part of the Constitution.
The amendments relating to the "dis
qualification of voters," and the "time
of holding elections," seem to meet with
general approval on all sides, the advan
tage derived from their adoption being
quite obvious; but the one relating to
* 'the formation of new counties" has
created a division of opinion among the
newspapers of tbe State. The advocates
ef the proposed change urge that the
formation of new counties in the Demo
cratic portion of the State will enable
the party to hold the Senate for years to
-come; the building of other court
houses will increase the property of the
State and create new centres of business;
will lessen the inconvenience and ex
pense of those having business with
public officials or in the courts, by short
ening the distance to the county site.
The arguments of the opposition are
mainly objections to the expense which
is likely to be ineurred where a new
county is formed, and the possibility of
the foundation in the lower portion of
the State of a larger number of counties
than above Columbia, enabling Repub
licans whose numbers are proportionately
larger in the Southern part to gain
representation in the Senate.
The political results in the case we
propose to ignore. If any advantage is
derived by the. Demecracy from the
adoption or rejection of the measure it
must of necessity be entirely temporary.
Counties which to-day, may give a Re
publican majority, may poll a vote of j
quite a different character in less than a j
decade of years. We regard the matter j
as entirely non-partizan having refer-1
nee only to the wishes and convenience j
ef those whose- interests would be j
promoted by the passage of the amend- j
ment. Its adoption does not mean the |
compulsory formation of new counties j
but the privilege of so doing where it is j
deemed of advantage?a privilege which |
would scarcely be abused where a modi
?um of intelligence prevailed. We j
are in favor of the adoption of the three i
amendments.

a circus. 1
Gov. Perry on the Constitutional
Amendments.
Ex-Gov. Perry writes to the Enter
prise and Mountaineer as follows:
At the next general election the peo
ple of South Carolina will have to vote
on three constitutional amendments,
which the Legislature proposed at
their last session.
The first, which excludes all persons
convicted of an infamous crime from
the right of suffrage. It is to be pre.
| sumed that no honest and intelligent
j voter will object to this amendment.
! Criminals, who have been convicted of
larceny, arson, burglary, rape and mur
der, should have nothing to do iu
making laws for the State or electing
^public officers. This will be a very
proper and wholesome amendment to
our State constitution.
The amendment, which proposes to
give the Legislature the authority to
appoint the day, on^ which our State
elections shall be held, is also a very
proper one. This will enable us to
I prevent the United States in supervi
sing bur State elections, which they
now do by ordering the Congressional and
Presidential elections to take place at
the same place with our State elections.
The other amendment which propo
ses to give the Legislature the power of
making a great many new counties in
the State ir decidedly objectiooable.
The expense of building new court
houses, and jails, having an additional
number of clerks and sheriffs, an addi
tional number of juries, solicitors, con
stables, judges and other public officers,
will amount to thousands and hundreds of
thousands of dollars and increase the taxes
enormously. But this is not all. Each
new county will have to have a Sena
tor. This will give the lower country
and the negroes entire control of the
Senate, which no Democrat or upper
country voter should sanction. I know
it is said that a Democratic Legislature
will not do this. But what certainty
have we that the Legislature will always
be Democratic ? Local influences may be
brought to bear on a Democratic Legis
lature, to divide some of the large coun
ties in the lower part of the State.
We should let well enough alone.
The counties, now, are not too large for
public convenience. If this Constitu
tional amendment should be adopted",
there will be applications for new coun
ties by the dozen ; every depot and cross
road store will wish a court house. By
all means, vote against this amendment,
which will prove a dangerous aud most
expensive experiment. Our taxes are
already sufficiently enormous, and we
can cot well bear any addition to them.
Death of Bishop Paine.
A despatch from Aberdeen, Miss.,
announces the death, at an. early hour
on last Friday morning of the Right j
Rev. Robert Paine, D. D., Senior Bish- j
op of the Methodist Episcopal Church |
South, in his eighty-third year. Bish
op Paine was born in Person County.
North Carolina, November 12, 1799, j
and removed to Tennessee early in
the present century. In 1818 he joined j
the Tennessee Conference of theMetbo-1
dist Episcopal Church and did pastoral
work until 1830, when he became j
President of La Grange College, in ;
Alabama. He continued in this posi
tion until 1846, when he was elected
bishop. He was a member of every
General Conference of the Methodist
Church from 1824 until 1846 and was
Chairman of the Committee of Nine
which reported the plan of separation,
on the basis of which the Methodist
Episcopal Church in the Uuited States
was divided. He .took a prominent j
part in the Louisville Convention of j
1845, which organized the Methodist j
Episcopal Church South. His 'Life |
and Times of Rishop McKendree' is his j
best known literary work. Bishop i
Paine was a learned and earnest preach
er and a man of great executive abil
A son of Mr. Eli Hood, aged about
16 years, who lives near Pacolet Depot,
Spartanburg county, was bitten by a
dog some weeks ago, but it was not cer
tainly known at that time that the ani- j
mal was mad. Symptoms of the dis
ease were recently developed in the boy
however and he finally died in convul
sions. The dog that did the biting and
several other dogs which he attacked
have been killed.
A young man started for a drive
twenty miles with his sweetheart, j
through an uninhabited tract in Minne- |
sota. At a point about midway ofj
the lonely route the pair had a bitter
quarrel. The fellow unhitched the i
horse, mounted it, and rode away, leav
ing the girl alone in the wagon, j
where she remained all night, and next
day walked home.

place on August 6th during a camp meet- j
ing, in which an inocent young white j
man named Joseph Harvard was set I
upon by an iofuriated mob, and after j
being shot by one of them was beateu '
almost to a jelly by the others. The [
woman raised the first howl which ex
cited the mob to the desperate work.
No attempt was made to rescue them
and not more than fifty negroes from |
whom violence was expected were in
town. A detachment of military j
from Macon were present for protec- j
tion.

The correspondent of toe Cologne
Gazette in Egypt writes from Cairo:
Herr Janson, the correspondent of the
Stockholm Dagblad, saw with his own j
eyes how the Egyptians wounded in j
the trenches of Tel-cI-Kebir, half an i
hour after the attack, were killed by !
English soldiers. He counted eight j
wounded incapable of offering any re- j
sistauce, who were^bot in his presence
and one who was stabbed. Lieut.-Col. i
Thurneisen a native of Austria, and !
one of those officers in the Egyptian j
service, who, by way of taking part j
in the operations were attach
ed to the English headquarters, also
witnessed the slaughter of the wounded
in a helpless condition. He saved the
lives of several. Two other persons
have told me the same story. By none
of the numerous English officers with
whom I have spoken has the killing of
the wounded been contradicted.' k

KNOCKABOUT SUITS.
(PATENTED.)
Ten Reasons why the "KNOCKABOUT" is the best Suit now
in the market for Boys7 wear.
I. ?Becanse the "KNOCKABOUTS" are made frdta double warp and dooble-aod-twist,
uotearable and wear-resisting fabrics.
II. ?Because the "KNOCKABOUTS" are trimmed in the most substantial manner, none
bnt indestructible materials in thread, linings, buttous, &c, being used in their
manufacture.
III. ?Because the "KNOCKABOUT" Pants are made with our Patented "Cavalry Knee,"
thereby insuring the greatest durability.
IV. ?Because the "KNOCKABOUT" fabric being a light color is not objectionable, as many
suppose, for it is in reality a neutral shade which will not soil easily, and will not
show the dust.
V.?Because the t:KNOCKAB0UT" as its name implies, is a neat, serviceable outfit3 and j
is well calculated to stand any amount of rough usage.
VI.?Because the "KNOCKABOUT" is produced solely to supply a want of an honest
wearing, substantially made BOY'S SUIT at the low price of $5.00.
VII.?Because the "KNOCKABOUT" has proved an inestironbfc blessing to every Father
who has to buy, and every Mother who baa tu mend, the clothing of the irrepressible
boy of the period.
VIII?Because of the above given reasons the "KNOCKABOUT" Suits commend tbemsejres
to the taste, judgment and pocket of those to whom the amount of money expended
during the year for Boys' Clothing is no inconsiderable item.
IX.?Because, since '-nothing succeeds like success," the great success of the "KNOCKA
BOUT" thus far proves it to be just the.Suit ihat was needed for Boys' wear.
X.?Because knock-about as much as you will, nothing will be found ttrifcuocktbe
"KNOCKABOUT" Suit that is manufactured for
$5.00. 1
