Chairman Greer had, said Dr. Tiiiinieriiian. laughingly, requested this morning that there should l>c no dealing in i>ersonaUtics, yet he had lieen the tirst to violate his own rule. Dr. Tiiiuueriiiau salid that at J<aurens a gentleinan haul asked him why it was that catndidaites of lleformers were either lawyers or farmers, like himself, who owned broad air res anil haul done no niainual ladior. lie haul informed the gentlemain he wais mistaken, lie, the s| leaker. haul guided the plow, pulled the hoe and done all manner of drudgery. lie diil not projHise to maule ai poiitieal speech: his otliee wais not ai pojiticad one, but he wishes to say thait he haul lieon am aulvoeate of silver when some of those hIhi IiiiiiI-iihiiiIIiimI :11hi111 it toduV. were as sil.mt .is the (lead. < ItKKitS Kolt WHITMAN. When Mr. Whitman was introduced, he was loudly chivied. Mr. Whitman said In- was proud of Union's exhibition In iv today, lie took this opportunity of saying that his relations with most of the candidates had been most friendly. He Wggcd pardon for sa\ing it in his prcsenee, hut his relations to his honorable opponent .lo'iiu It. Harrison, had Iteen most pleasmt. That gentleman had treatetl him with eourtesv and respivt. lie presented Mr. Harrison tothem. asking their attentive hearing to him. If there was one man in South Carolina who rivalled M. ('. llutler in courtliness. gciitlemanliness. good fellowship, that man was John It. Harrison. Mr. Whitman regretted that he could not sty as much for his opponent, who unfortunately, was not here today. If he was here, lie would ask these bo\s to request Mr. Kllerbe to explain why he had repeatedly insulted him. He had repeated it. because, as these (xople knew, lie resented insults by turning the other cheek. not oil on tiiKit: i:i:? oi:t>. Mr. Whitman then turned on the !Iefertn record and the schools and collegi s. lie told how the pledges of Kefoi'in had not I veil kept. II Iw was made governor.

As t<> Tillman, lie paid his respect a to him a^ heretofore. Hut. slid Mr. Whitman. I have not said lie was a liar, and 1 was going to tell him so to Ins fare, as one of nix opponents has done; not that lie was a dictator, as another had conceded. These things might lie true, hut he had not slid so. The man who two years ago was crying most loudly against rings, had now, in some mysterious way, insinuated himself into a political ring that had grown upon the ruins of the old ring and was running for governor (Kllerlie.) Was it not funny. X- To IWI'MVKKUS. When Mr. Whitman made his frequent references to the papsuekers, he always excited applause. "We are going to make him governor" siid an ardent admirer in the crowd. This was a practical age, lie said, and one that needed a common sense, practical governor. II elected, he promised to give the people such an administration. At tiie ( lose of his speech, Mr. Whitman was heart ilv applauded. 1 taring Mr. Whitman's speech. (Jovcruor Kvans.
