ORR FrRsT RADICAL Court A FAILUR

OuR FIRST RADICAL COURT A FAILURE.
According TO recent Act of the b.
gus Legislature, the Court of Common
Pleas was ordered to sit at Marion, last
Monday, but his Judgeship, Jaybird NJ.
Rutland, failed to come, although, on
Sunday afternoon, there was large
number of his Judgship's sable brothers
and sisters at the depot, ready to grasp
his hand, and hug and kiss him too, and
clay der cases fore 'im.'' We presume
the reason that his Judgeship didn't
come, was because he could not ''raise the
wind" high enough to pay his railroad
fare.

Good Nuts for Rads to Crack.

A colored man IN washington city re-
Gently was lectured by Radical politi-
clan for becoming "restive in the traces. "
The colored man replied:
"Under your teaching we have aiienat-
cd from US the mass of the white people
North as we'll as South; you have got
the offices and the emouments, while
we have done the work and have to stand
out in the cold. For one, / am done
with you"
A business letter from New Orleans
to gentleman in Atlanta, referring to
to the political situation says:
81 am glad to inform you that have
never known such change in the celored
population as has taken place here in the
last month. don't think there will be
one sixth of the negro voters WHO will
vote the radical ticket in November, in
Louisiana and Mississippi"
The following is something new, and
one of the most strikingly attractive fea-
lures We have yet seen. Think Of five
hundred ladies on horseback in grand
Democratic phalanx:
A telegram from the State of Iowa, re.
c)unting the enthusiasm and success of
several Democratic demonstrations, says
of one, that there were 500 ladies on
horseback in the procession. The States
were also represented by thirty-six
young girls, dressed in red, white and
blue. The attractions were so great that
the number of people who assembled
was not less than 10000.
A great gathering of blacks took place
at Abbeville on the 5th, and was any
thing but a successful demonstration.
The negroes were disappointed in what
they heard, the speakers in whom their
hopes were centred, were constraire |
from conviction to warn them to be
peaceable and quiet, to avoid all conduct
which might precipitate conflict be-
tween the races. So it works. Radical
ism is receiving its death blow.
The Greenville Mountaineer learns
that the negroes who have been led by
Bates, in Union district, have wisely
concluded to be led by the william no
longer, and have entered into written
contract to abide by the laws and keep
the peace.
A Colored Democratic Club was Or
ganized in Aiken, S. G. Quite large
number have already signed the roll.
The Greensburg Qnd.) Expositor,
heretofore a republican sheet, has de-
clared for Seymour and Blair. 1t says
that "the German republicans of Indiana
are abandoning that party by thousands
and enrolling themselves among the sup
porters of Seymour and Blair" They
see how the wind blows and act wisely.
The Ohio State journal, violent radi.
ical sheet, frantically exclaims:
For Heavens sake, friends, work!
Work, from this day until election, or
We are beaten in Ohio, in Indiana, in
Pennsylvania, in New York, and in the
whole country!
A correspondent of the New York
Citizen, writing from Missouri, says: I
have cheering news from Missouri. I
have no desire to mislead any one. Re-
liable citizens inform me that the State
is sure for Seymour and Blair. The
Democrats have made strong nonina.
tions in each Congressional District, and
are thoroughly canvassing the State.

We refer with pleasure to the card of
Messrs. Brodie & Co., Factors and Com
mission Merchants, North Atlantic
Wharf, Charleston. This house is well
known to the most of our merchants
here, and perhaps to all as substantial
one, and the gentlemen composing the
firm reliable business men. Planters
and others will consider the facilities Of.
fered by them.

Rev. j. T. ZEALY.-The announce.
ment that this gentleman has resigned
his pastorship of the Baptist Church in
this town, and that he is forced by the
limited support afforded him by his
school, to seek another State, and q
wider and more prosperous field, will be
received with deep regret by his friends,
and the community generally: Mr.
Zealy, during his short residence 10 our
midst, has endeared himself to the pee
pie by his gentle, unassuming manners,
and his great usefulness, not only in his
ministerial character, but as an instruc-
tor Of youth, and the severing Of these
ties will give much sorrow, not only to
him, but to those with whom he has
been so intimately connected, in the
triple relation of pastor, teacher and
friend. We trust that he may find a
warm and hearty welcome where he
goes, that his earnest piety and eloquent
teachings, will be appreciated, and that
his spiritual and temporal comforts may
be many.

A despatch to the New York World
estimates the Republican majority in
Maine at from II to 10000. The re-
turns come in slowly, but seem to be
conclusive that nearly every town
shows large Republican gains over last
year, when the majority was 1000.
There have been small Democratic gains
in several towns.
A later dispatch says 26 towns give
Chamberlain 1920, and PlllSbury IT,
54s. Last year, the same towns gave
Chamberlain 1s,167; Pillsbury l3,993-
Republican gain 3,4S7.

Oar Mass Meeting on the 22d.

Remember the grand rally, fellow.citi-
ssns, appointed for Tuesday, the 22nd
inst. Rally democrats from all parts of
this district, and other districts, and
come in on that day. Let US have a
rousiag time. Come by rail, by wagons,
on horseback, and on foot if you can
: come in no other way, Only come, and
Ies yonr tramp be heard, as of the mar

Everywhere triumphant. There is fire

fire. Not the blue, sulphurous fame
eSkindled by the radical party, and bor-
fowed from the regions below, and which
:Hnot sniothered must burn up friend
aBafoe. Fight FIRE with fire and put
that other out, which can be done BY
working all together. - -.-
Ra6iealism is in its death struggle, in
It's last throess q congestion has seized it,
and the frantic efforts of carpet-baggers,
rO6bers, shoddy-ites, GRANTEES, etc. ETC.,
cannet help it. Come one, come all, and
blow the fire of democracy into fame
which will put courage into the tearts
!. 6f The weak and desponding.
And ladies come also, turn out from
: Aevn and eountry; lend US the inspira-
/. lion of yoar presence, for this is no idle,
common occasion, but one in which you
are needed to make the bright particu-
bar part. We guarantee that the occa-
sion win be so interesting, so inspiring,
so full of hope and cheer, that you will
almost determine to stump ityourselres
Soy Seymaus and Blair, democracy, love-
order, peace, happiness, and every other
Blessing which will follow their election,

Think of procession in the State of
+ Iowa, in y hich 900 beautiful ladies, all
2en horseback, took prominent part.
How grand scene was that!
The eolored people are also invited to
come and hear the truth, to come into
4he sanshins and out of the darkness.
Theleagsss are breaking up, dissolving
Ike morning mists, and the leaders turn

reads Radicaiism is Doomed!
The order Of exercises will be:

OBITUARY.

HARRIET BOYD, the wife of the Rev. J.
NJ. Boyd. Local Preacher of the Newberry
Circuit, died September 4th, 1863.
She was born in the city of Columbia, Oe.
tober 22nd, 1899, and was left without a
mother al d years of age. Was raised and
educated by her Aunt, Mrs. S. Cromer, who
is now a member of the family. Joined the
NJ. E. Church, South, in 1851. Married in
1854. And was happily converted to God in
1856 at the Rutherford Camp Ground. Her
illness was short yet she was not confound-
ed. Her faith was strong. And her hope
as an anchor to the soul, sure and steadfast.
She gave her father>in>law, the Rev. M. n.
Boyd, to understand that all was peace and
calm. And in conversation with her hus-
band on the morning Of her death, she said,
now trust wholly in Jesus. 60 to join
our two little ones gone before. And then
turning her bright eyes to her husband, said,
will you not bring the others with you. And
said she, if am sent as ministering spirit
to the heirs of salvation, I will come to you.
And when about to cross the river of death,
her husband asked her is she now thoughs OF
any text of scripture appropriate to her pres
ent feelings. She said with emphasis. "0t
death where is thy sting" And though weak,
of David. "Though walk through the val.
lev of the shadow of death, I will fear no
evil" Thus ended the life of this noble
christian woman.
She is gone, but has left name fragrant
with her many virtues, unaffected sweetness
of temper, and kindness of heart. Her ex-
change is one of inexpressible joy and never
ending felicity. May we like her, enter into
the company Of Angels and the blood>
washed throng, to sing the praises of Him
who saved US from eternal death.
Life's duty done, she sank to rest,
Upon her dear Re6eemer's breast, S.,-r:Q
While heaven and earth coubinet0cPy,
How bless the righteous when they die.
