that ta tire event it became necessar

the latter had expressed the desire
M ah one eb ou ld be placed at the bea
all the Coafed crate infantry, atri
Geo. Wade Hampton ?boaid orcnp
simitar position in the cavalry ann
the service. When the ?reseat go<
nor of Virginia made his historic c
paign, resulting in the overthrow of
Readjuster-Radical Government io t
Sute, he rode en the saddle of
oncle? the immortal Lee, and his n;
created ao enthusiasm that swept ev
barrier from his path. The name
Lee became the slogan of the fight ;
proved aa potent in the campaign
politice aa it bad been onee in that
War. General Mahons has taken a ?
SOB from this leaf of bjptory and is i
trying to nado what was done by
same magic spell. General Lee's mai
waa a little too large for this li
..cheap John" politician-it won't fi
and DO mao could have kbown this I
ter than Lee himself.

Major Charles McGregor, as he was {
ing into his yard after nightfall, v
shot through and through the body
one J. W. Cody, a professed friend,
was not known for a bog time who t
assassin was. Finally Cody, to t
amassment of everybody, confessed
having done it and offered to let ]\j
Gregor kill him in expiation of t
crime, bat before this confession Co
had expressed great concern at the i
ness of his friend and helped to nm
bia. Cody was indicted, and bis tri
set for last week at Warren ton, t
scene of the former shooting. Wb
the ease was called Cody did not she

alighted from hts buggy, McGrego
with a cocked pistol in hts band, deli
erately walked over to him where 1
stood conversing with some gectleme

without the slightest show of resistant
on the part of.the latter, shooting hi

?EB COTTON MARKET.
Eeports intended, evidently, to ic
jare Sumter and -beneft. the amalle
towna -in tbis Chanty,'have gained cur
renoy in .certain .porticos of the Count;
utterly -wtfhout foundation in fae!
TbesO'ieports are that cotton brings
better price at Maye&viile, Bishopvill
and .other little toctos -'.han it does oi
the Sumter market. We are not sui
priced that such reports should be cir
calate?!, bot we are surprised bcyon<
measure kbat anybody should -be s
credulous as 'to be iarposed on by them
In towns of the size of those m eu ii on ed
the price of eveny pound cf cotton sol?
is known to-every n?ae tn the com tn uni
ties about the towns. There are so fev
people that everybody knows ever'
body else's business, and when a hand
some price, probably paid for that ver1
purpose, is given for one bale of cotton
the fame of the transacci?n is spreao
abroad and talked about until ut.thin!;
ing people believe ibis .pc i ce to be a fai
example of the matket. The manife
abf nrJity of these reports ought to b<
their own refutation, but some people
respire to be told notwithstanding
-manifest aban*cities. There are rnor<
than twenty active cotton buders in tin
City of .Sumter, hence ?e cornie
titioo among them is so grrat a.?
to compel t?ie buyers to JMV th<
very big heat pri?es the -markets wi!
. warrant. Tbe ?ame coodi?iuos do no!
obtain in smaller places, wbe*?*be mer
chanta buy very H-t-tie besides -tba-t OE
which they already have claiJJS in tbe
way of leine or for agricultural advan?
ces, and in those instances wbere cotton
is placed upon tbe market ince of such
claims there are not enough buyers to
force the prices op to the last notch as
ii the case is Sumter.
The cotton buyers of this place, too,
frequently buy lots of cotton at those
smaller points. Only last week, a
boyer bought a ?ot of twenty bales at a
small town, paying of course, in order
to get it, an advance on ike price of?
fered by local buyers. Wheo the pro?
ducers consider tbe manifest advant?
ages of Sumter over other points io the
County they muot .see that tkese reports
are mere gasconade, haviog their
origin io isolated instances or tbe
studied designs of the small buyers in
small places to build themselves up at
the expense of Sumter.
We would like to see the report of
sales ?or any one week si any of these
bragging little towns compared with the
sales of Sumter for the same period.

proposition that cannot brr deniod,ui
an inferior grade of cotton be mi
factured into this covering-and in
case, it could only be used without
for covering of the finer grades ol
raw material. Besides its iuferit
as to strength, rendering its use
general shipment precarious, co
bagging will thus bring loss upoc
user. Something else will have to
found that will do as well a.* jute
cost less. What the something
will be we cannot even conjecture,
suggest that, the best way cut of
wilderness would be the must pr ac tic
way,-let the National Alliance es
!bh a jute factory of its own, aud fi
isa the product to the farmers at
actual cost of manufacturing it. .
plan is feasible and is the only plai
which we can think, that can get
farmers cut of the dutches of

TRIENNIAL CO?-?VENTIOI
This, the main governing body of the ?
copal Church in the (Jutted States, me
New York city on the 2nd inst., at
George's Church. Th" convention is <
posed of two house?, the house of Iiis!
consisting cf about seventy members and
house of clerical ?nd lay deputies, consis
of four clerical and four lay deputies from
diocess, or about four hundred merabei
td!, among them some of the most dis
guii-htd men in the whole country, wei'
favorably known in the Councils of I
church and state. It is too early yet in
session to have arrived at many results, ii
of the work being first done in committee
reported to the convention for fina! nen
The revision of the Prayer Bo)k and H;
ual, the question of the colored people and
church's duty and relation to them, ilse
tension of mission work, these and such i
are the important questions that will come
fore the body for consideration. The qt
tion of marriage ard divorce is receiving
profound consideration to which it is en till
The convention is notable also tn that it
the one-hundredth year since the Episco
Church was fully organized ia this land,
haviug Bishops, consecrated ia Scotland r
England, and charged with the spirit
oversight of the church.
Among the questions that have come up
one touching a system of provincial coun<
ili>*i sh-:!! be intermediary between thc D
cesan Convections and the General Conv
tien. Such a system is in accord willi
ancient system of pairiarchaVs tt:at preval
in the early church. Thc country is so iai
and the dioceses so numerous, that a bo
like ?he general convention is unwieldy 1
cause of its size, Rad i;.s wotk is so great tl
it would be much better done if it ccuid be
6ome extent adjusted by provincial counc
before getting to the supreme governi
body.
The question also, of the reardon of Cnn
ians o: Christian unity will receive much ;
tendon at this Convention. 1: is widely f
that the method of long divisional and fri
ticnal Christianity which has been prevai?i
since tte reformation has about had its da
and that it is ??;oe now to return to whoient
and. if possit.!?, unity among those who 1
lieve. Some eft be ablest minds in ail-o
nominations have so expressed themseivc
and it isevident thu there is among Cari:
ians a reaching oui ia that direction.
Une S'.d event in connection willi tl,
meeting of trie general convention is, th
Bishop Vail ci Kansas, died cu route to Ne
York. Appro: ??ate memorial services we
held by the convention, and a committee w
p.ppom'ed to attend his funeral. The de: eg
lion from South Carolina is composed of ti
venerable Hov. Dr. C. C Pi nek ney of Ora
Church, Charlesto?j the Uv v. J .im Joboso
of St. Philip's Church, the Rsv. ll ?bert Wi
son, of .St. Luke's, Charleston, who ?.OPS i
the piace of the u-v. A. T. Porter, D. I>
detained by illness in England, and the Kc1

HST CREASE IN CRIME.
At no time since the old of "goo
Sterling" iti South Cardin?: has the court
of this countv been so numerously ailene- u *

sons, all negroes, on trial for their iive?
Five ?V'r rape and three for murder.
lt is oft?.:) said that an unusual numb*
o! crimes indicate a "boom-' in the iocalit
in which they occur, cn th? reasoning tba
crimes .re usually commited 'hy stranger
and by a class of strangers who only v?5?

hov.ever, does not apply in the present in

We were fortunate enough to be present at a recent bank- j
ru-pt sale held in New York, at which goods were sacrificed at i
ONE-HALF the cost of production io buyers with the I
nerve to tackle the immense quantities of each lot offered. We
promptly bid for the best bargains, regardless of quantities and
propose to give the people of ?Sumter the advantage of our pur?
chase. We can therefore conscientiously say
This will be a Slaughter Sale.
