respectfully suggest, through your paper, to
the Democratic Clubs Of tho State, that, in
our opinion, the whites would succeed
much better in making Democrats of the
colored population, if the Democratic Clubs
would detail certain suitable members ol
their clubs to talk 10 the colored people.
The plan that has met with success in the
ncighborhood Of the writer, is for some
sensible nau to collect the negroes Of his
nelghborhood together, and not make a
speech, but talk. and ascertain the COM
plants that the negroes mako against the
Democratic party, and show them the folly
of their objections. Mass meetings do
very little good with this class. Demo-
cratic Clubs that have tried this plan have
met with much success, and South Caro-

How TO FIT COLLARS TO HoRsEs'
SIroULnERs.-It is very important to
haro a collar fiji nicely and snug!y to
the shoulders Of tho horse. 1t enables
him TO work with 4 great deal moro
case ard TO apply great deal more
strength. II prevents CALLING and
wounding, as tho friction is avoided
Collars arc SO made, or should be 50
mado, as TO throw the chief force on
tho lower part Of tho shoulder. Tho
horse can apply but little strength on
tho upper part, and for this reason
breast collars arc coming greatly into
voguc-as tho strength is exerLcd on
tho lower part of the shoulder But
VIC started out to tell our readers how
to make u new collar fit the shoulders
of the horse. The collar should be
purchased of the proper s;zo; Just be.
Joro putting it on for tho first time,
mmorsc it in water, letting it rcmaing
about q minute, and imm ediately put
it on the horse, being careful TO have

bottom as to fit tho shoulder, and then
put tho horse to work. The collar
by being wot, will adapt itself to the
shoulder, and should dry on tho horse.
When taken eli it should be left in th G
