was Che first to wake, aroused hy

The camp was struck, and, after a
hasty meal, a few minutes were de?
moted, to a council of war between tho
young American end his trusty lieu?

"What do you say, Campignoa? Shall
we follow this track through the woods,
or turo back into the lake? For myself,
I think that our traillies by land. What
say you?* "
<&?ba?y?ii ore right, sir. Like most
qi: my breed, I am a fatalist, and I be?
lieve that our finding this dannel was
ar?tt?e more than luck, and that we

"Fontanel Say rather Providence* ft
**Aa"you wiTi see, t am only a rough
?Sailor, and leave such nice distinctions
ta my betters.*
The tran's levity Jarred upon Dun?
bar*?? sensitive nature. Brought up tn
{fee atmosphere of a New England
borne, he felt that, if ever there was a
tfcne in hfe life when he needed the
interposition of a Divine influence, it
was now, - and the Frenchman's words
t~0 TO U3TKSOWN
^?ere not pleasant io hi-? car; but he
restrained the reproach thai, roso to his
lipa, and quietly asked:
**Shall we leave a guard with the
boat?"
?**What is tie use? ^ If we .ever ccmet
back-which I very much doubt-even
if the sampan is stolen, we car. bu i . d a
raft; whereas, if the natives mean mis
^'f?Se^&masi singiehand would be no
more protection to our property than a
lady's pet spanieL "
^Then what shall we do?"
? "Find a hollow tree and hide our
trapa in it-the food we cannot take
with us, the ammunition we should ho
foolish to overburden ourselves with,
?t will be short commons with us for a
I ~time, I fancy, but we must march
against tho enemy with light oaggage,
?or we shall die by the roadside before
we can reach bis lair, which I fancy
^lies some distance up this Wooded
wilderness."
This being agreed upon, they put J&e
project into execution* anti each man
carrying a rifle, pi stow,' a limited sup?
ply of ammunition and a few day's ra?
tions, they turned their footsteps to
the winding path, which led to tin
known dangers
flf J?very step they took was fraught
with peril The forest and jungle were
alive with the distant cries of wild ani?
mals, strange reptiles lurked in the
grass beneath their feet, and a thou?
sand smaller pests retarded their prog?
ress and drove them nearly to madness
with their persistent annoyance. Thus
myriads of "eye flies," no bigger than
pins' heads, half blinded them, any
every now and tht-n one of the party
1 would have to stop to pour oil on some
-tick or leech which had buried itself in
?is fiesh
Oh, f or one breath of fresh air; one
.draught of clear water! Days of bum?
ing beat, nights reeking with malaria,
and not a drop of fluid for the po relied
throat but thc stimy water they got
from some stagnant pool, which they
I could only drink after straining it
through a - piece of linen, and which
was warm and bitter to tho taste, and
brought the strongest among ti jem to
the threshold of death's door) And thc
strongest among them was not Authur
Dunbar, with his massive frame sa l
limbs of a Hercules, nor the two na
t lives who might have been expected to
endure the miseries with less suffering
- than the Eoropeai?; but Capt- Cain
pignon, whoso stout frame shrank from
the exposure, but whose tread was thc
most elastic and whose cheery words
animated his companions to fresh exer?
tion.
f*You bear a charmed lifo," Dunbar
said to him, fretfully, one day. "As xor
myself, I feel as though this cursed cli?
mate was stealing my very manhood

lh?$?WiB benothiugjjWfc. for me
- Munich yon m?st 'not'"wsw?-'of do?

which showed every one of his gleam?

yon. what would become of these
brave fellows who are t?rottit?sr along
with their tongues lolling out of their
months like do^rs?"

"I know it, Campignon," Dunbar said,
"but I bi?ve provided against such a

^and coonah tOToako these faithful fel

For a j^vnaiuutee. the Frenchman
walked csJjfcin "silence. Suddenly he
turned to Arthur and said, eagerly:
"Whet made you tell n*o that? Have
you no?"fear that -1 should play you

I yet without having metjsvith any adven

treme heat o* midday and in the dark?
ness which overshadowed them like a
j curtain before the moon rose, they
slept, stretched on light hammocks
which they hung to tho branches of
tices.
j It was during one of these resting
spells that the first disaster of conse?
quence occurred- One among thom had
i been accustomed to watch over the

i by European and Dative. On this oc?
casion Campignon had been on duty.
Ko noise had aroused tho tired sleepers,
1 yet when they woko it was to find the
Frenchman missing-^the frenchman
1 and the dog. In vain they cried aloud
; till thc. woods reechoed their voices; in
' vain they fired off tlieir rifles and
waited a response. The Frenchman
was cone (rom their midst, and, what
wes worse, he had taken their best rifle
and their dog with him
"Oh, the false-hearted traitor! to
leave me like this for a few paltry,
pieces of gold!" Dunbar groaned, when
the natives who had scoured the woods
returned after a vain search. |?o could

It Made Them all Sick.
The town of Dexter, Mc, boats of tbe
hardest hearted set of wags to be found
anywhere. The most of thea? are on the
lookout conftautly for the ?ul ject of a
practical joke, and hardly a ?ny passes
that they do not, and ene. Thc latest,
related by tl e Lewiston Journal, is on a
! frosh cigar drummer who thought his
m- rchandize better than anything of the
sort OJ earth. In his travels he carries
tu his coat pocket a big cigar case and
advertises himself and his goods by giv?
ing freely of his braods to any who will
smoke them. He wss in Dexter this
week. Thc day was hot and he left his
coat and cigar case on a chair while he
sat in a cooling draft in the dcor. Gae
cf the jokers got a rubber comb aad
broke ont tweuty teeth. They were
small and sharp. luto the end of each
cigar a rubber tooth was pushed and
with a small nail the tooth was driven
in out of sight The tobacco leaf came
together, oumpietely hiding the tooth.
Thru the jokers waired for the Ufan.
Soon ;he cigar mau, now well cooled
[ down, began busioess. Going into a
store l.o first gave away a cigar wbmh
ihe intended customer be^an to smoke.
Soon the air was odoriferous, not, with a
sweet and fragrant smell, but with one
not unlike that of old guiilocks or burning
rubber boots. The customer sickened
j and threw away thc weed, and said he
i had cn baud cigars enough to lust all
j summer. Another dealer had a similar
i expedience. Stili another was given a
j day's nausea, and when that drummer
I got through vritb his gifts he W<JS hated j
j by nearly every cigar dealer ia town,
j ?e pucked his goods ia sorrow, and
j doe* not kuow to thia day that an old
i rubber comb from thc stable box of a
! hostler wrecked him commercially in
j Dexter.

ROOMS OF THE EXECUTIVE Coil
OF THE CONSERVATIVE DEUOCF
OF SOUTH CAROLINA.
COLUMBIA, S. C., July 18th, U
lion. John L. M. Irby, Cha
State Democratic Comraitt
South Carolina, Washington,
SIR-I read in a newspaper o
urday, and have since received
letter of 13th inst., in reply t
communication of 4th inst., in y
I requested, in behalf of the C<
vative Democracy, that the
Democratic Committee take ink
sider? tion, and explicitly de
what is to be done at the Angus
mary in regard to Third party
who ofter to vote, and whether e
ment in a Democratic club is r
sary to entitle one to vote. I s
that you had been reported ii
press, in favor of allowing Third
ty raen to vote, and in favor of a
ing Democrats not enrolled to *
and that your published views
evoked discussion, and that opii
differed as to their correcti
adding that it was necessary to t
election that all doubts should b
at rest on these important pointi
the State Democratic committe
its next meeting, when we desii
submit our views, as the represe
tive8 of our wing of the Deraoc
of the State.
In your reply yon state that
"know of no Third party in S
Carolina," and that you "then
conclude that any white man, kn
co be a Democrat, who takes the
gation at the time he votes at
primary election, will, and oughi
be permitted to vote, whether he
hitherto favored a Third party, or
been an Independent Ilaskellite
now favors Prohibition, Worn
Suffrage, or otherwise. You
that the State Democratic Commi
will meet Tuesday, the 26th inst
consider this and oilier questions.
The obligation taken by the v
does not settle the question, for
prescribed by the rules of the p
in the following form : "1 do
emnly swear that I am duly quali
to vote at this election according
thc rules of the Democratic pa
and that I have not voted befon
this election.
I am surprised to leam that
"know of no Third party in Sc
Carolina,'' in view of your predict]'
at Chicago that Cleveland would
carry South Carolina, and the c
logical conclusion from your ut
anees, is that you expect the Rei.
Heans to carry South Carolina
Harrison. This cannot happen,
less white men desert the Democn
party for the Third party or for
Republican party. Should such r
be allowed recognition as Deraocr
and participate in the primary to el
delegates to the September conv
tion, which is to nominate the Dei
eratic electors ?
I do not wish to be misunderst<
here. The door* of tiie Democrf
party-the party of the people
ever open tor accessions fror?
people of those who ma^nave b<
connected wjth *f?aev parties :
they shouloV'Vender full allegiance
its pj^t^rm and its candidates.
Importer of Weaver, the old Gre
back party's candidate for Preside
and now the Third party's candid:,
on substantially the old G reen bs
platform, cannot be a Democrat at
same time ; and if not a Democi
should uot participate in our r.
maries.
As to the matter of enrollment, 1
State Democratic constitution <
clares that "the club rolls of 1
party sha!I constitute tiie registry ii
and shall be open to inspection by a
member of the party, and the electi
under this clause (i. e. the Augi
primary) shall be held and regula!
under the act/' etc. Tho ru
adopted by the State commit!
contains the expressions, "Qualify
tion for membership in any subor
nate club of the Democratic party
this State, or for voting at any Den
eratic primary, shall be as fuHows
etc, and enrollment is not mention
as one of the qualifications. You a
no doubt aware that these clauses a
construed differently in diff?re
counties, and this is a sniTicient reas<
for a more explicit declaration fie
the State committee.
You also state that the "qestion
appointing more than three manage
to conduct tho primary eiectioi
will also be considered at tiie mcetii
of the State Democratic Committe
and I have no doubt that it will 1
considered in that fair and imparti
spirit, which belongs appropriately
the bod}', which is the executn
organ o? the entire Democracy of ti
?tat??, and not of any particular win
or fiction.
In the conclusion of your lette
you have made-permit me to state
au i!loo;ical distinction. You co
o
sider that only Democrats who ai
aggrieved, or who represent a gricM
ance, should have audience of tl;
Sta'e Democratic Committee. Yt:
also assert that the State Demoorati
Committee is competent to exerch
i's delicate and important fuuctioi
"without interference t/r s"<j/c.?tio}> j rn
(tn;/ one:%i and add, "We are in
disposed to convert the State Derm
eratic Executive Committee into
dehating fioctcfy for yues'iuim of inn
yhidry grievances. '*
T?os pretension of exclusivenef
i
and infallibility would ordinarily I
remarkable as the utterance of a Den
ocr?t; but this is a "record-breaking
time, i call your attention to th
fact that the matters in question aris
from some of your personal utterance
in the capacity of Chairman, and
can hardly imagine that you assei
for yourself the right to commit th
State Democratic Committee to th
position you have indicated, or thy
you mean to dudare that you are th
I master and not the servant of th
? Democracy of the State. We woul
i free you from the embarrossmc-nts t
j such a position by declaring that l
acknowledging your legitimate ai
! tinnily as State Chairman and th
j jurisdiction of tho State Democrati
! CommUtce, we claim it as our righ
to address yourself as Chairman, o
the ?tate Democratic Committee a
any time, upon party matters whicl
: concerti us as Democrats, and to pre
: sent our views upon such questions
! and wc feel assured that while
! '.'howling duwn" may suppress frei
I speech from the stump, such a coursi
i wili not bc imitated by the Statt
! Democratic Committee winn consitl
. ed mg matters important <;; a fair a:?v
impartial primary of the party, even
though the State Chairman desire
such suppression.
The ieiter of the 4th inst, was sent
by me as chairman of ihe executive
committee of the Conservative De?
mocracy of South Carolina, and as
sucli I accept your notice of the meet?
ing of the State Democratic commit?
tee on the 26th inst., and will inform
my colleaguns.
For them and for myself, I reiter?
ate my statement in my letter of the
4th inet., that "at thc next meeting
of the State Democratic committee
we desire to submit cur views on
these questions as thc representatives
)f- one wing of the Democracy of
the State." Respectfully yours,
SAMUEL DIBBLE,
Chairman Conservative Democracy of
