The State of The Hamburger looks well thus far.
We have gained largely on the popular vote, mud
there is a fair chance that may have carried the
Legislature. The Tories have probably carried the
State, but by a diminished majority. We copy
the following from the last Cincinnati Republican,
Thirteen counties have been heard from, giving

in 1886 was lS4.-This would seem Ia be an i'm
mense gain; but comparing the same counties with
the vote of 1885, when the Van Buren, majority IN
the Srate was upwards of 6O00, the gain is some
thing less than 1000.

New PApEs.-We have received the first num-
ber of new paper, published in Cheraw, by the
Rev. w. POTTER, entitled tho Family Visiter. It
is handsomely printed on ncw type, at 81 50 in
advance. We fear that unless the Editor odhercs
rgdly to the cash principle" bis price Of subscrp-
ton will be found too low. In" defining bis position
he says: 1--WE have bcun asked what course We in
tend to steer amidst the present political excitement
of the day. For the information of all our readers,
VIC say, unhcsi:atingy, that wo shall pursue an in
dependent course-not q neutral one. We shall
not, however, enguge in political strfe-we are no
poticiun;-but we shall furnish our patrons with
such political information, in tie way Of intell-
gcnce, as we may deem important, regardless Of
the dangerous influence Of party d;ctutiou, which
so often destroys the character of newspaper
But the Presidential election will soon be over, and
then hope, sincerely, that all excitement on the
subject will end.
