The seRebelo Hampton.

That is the name by which Mr.. Sneak
Loyal delights to call him; and Mr.. Sneak
Loyal hates him with all the ferocity of
''frst-class christian" because the

Well, General Wade Hampton came
North and attended the Democratic
Convention at New York on the 4th of
July, 1868. He came to see and OBJ
serve and to know what the true people
of the States mean. He was called on
for opanah and he yielded to the call
In that speech he said this:
"The present Legislature of South
Carolina consists of 156 members, and
of these 100 are negroes. The other Sc,
whites, are nearly all carpet-baggers,
miserable adventurers from other States.
The whole Legislature only pays $500
taxes, and of this sum one Conservative
pays $500. This Legislature so COM
posed of negroes, paying no taxes, is au-
thorized to tax the people to the amount
Of $1O,OOO,OOO a year. This is the kind
of Government which a Radical Con-
gress has imposed upon proud Ameri-
can State-the land of Sumter and
Marion"
This is the Reconstruction which
Usurpation has forced upon the people
of the South. And this is the act which
the New York Convention have pro-
nounced Null and Void. And by all
the powers of united and earnest Will,
the people intend that it shall be in
truth and deed Null and Void Urbana

A New Bayonet.

from the Springfield eMass.) Republican. 23d.l
Col Edmund Rice, formerly of the
10Th Massachusetts, Regiment, and now
of the 10th United States Infantry,1is in
the city. having been ordered to Spring
field to superintend the manufacture at
the Armory of two hundred bayonets, of
a new pattern, of his invention Col.
Rice's bayonet has been favorably re-
ceived at the War Department, and has
been strongly Recommended by many
Of the most distinguished officers of the
army. 1t issthe very extreme of novel;
tyli in design, and proposes to meet very
different uses from the traditional long,
sharp, slender weapon, first introduced
at the siege of Bayonne. The nbayonet
invented by Col. Rice is, in fact, steel
trowel, nine inches long, and three or
four wide. It certainly is not as impo-.
sing as the old fashion, but claims to be
more useful 1t is designed to enable
troops to cover themselves with rapidity.
In the last war, the troops did this with
knives, spoons, fingers and their bay
onets, with which, however, they could
not scoop up the, earth. This provides
butln always Will ldCllJl0S VI 0utT6uCu-
ment. Col. Rice estimates that a line
could throw up twenty inches of dirt
in ten minutes,,s so that troops need never
be ceught out of shelter. That this
weapon would not answer all the pur-
poses of the bayonet must be admitted; !;
but it is urged that that weapon is now
obsolete; that not hundred men were
killed by it during five years of war
that the rebels persistently threw theirs
away, and that they were kept in the
hands of our troops only by Furnishing
those who lost them, and charging them
with the expense of new ones. That if
this was so with muzzle.loaders, the old
bayonet will be still less necessity
with the breech-loader; while at the
same time the urgency of being covered
will be vastly increased ly the deadlier
efficiency Of the new arm. Col Rice's
bayonet is intended to be worn habitu-
ally in the sheath at the side, the guns
are to be stacked by the ramrod, and the
bayonet will only be fixed on guard, &c.
This novel weapon certainly makes a
good case for itself at first sight, and,
however the Ordnance Department may
come to regard it, we have no doubt off,
GERS of infantry will generally look ON it
with favor, ~

Dangerous Ground.

The NeU York Commercial advertiser
cautions the Tribune thus: 'a.a
1.-THE Tribune is raking up the record
of Horatio Seymour, made at Tweddle
Hall Convention, in February, 1861.
The Tribune had better let that alone,
for the reason that SO many of the Rad
ical leaders in this State took part in
that Convention. 1t would not do to
have some of the speeches made there
by some of the Iri63nc's friends repub-
lished. 1t would be rather awkward"

The Democratic Prospect.

p, Hon. s. J. 'Tilden, of New York, in a
recent letter to the great Democratic rat
ifcation meeting at Washington, closes
with the following: ."'f' ~
speaking from an experience ofmore
than thirty years of political observation
and political action, do not hesitate to
say that in no Presidential conflict since
the days of Andrew Jackson have omens
of fvictory to any party or any cause been
so clear, so numerous and so inspiring,
as those which now cheer the party of
the National Democracy to battle in the
cause of American liberty"

A Radical SfumPer, or q Radical
ir-' -gffFvei Siumped. fUsE aU sii1


Some time since, we, here in Van
Vert, like most large towns, were visited
by circus. Nothing very strange about
that, however. But what we started out
to do was to relate little episode in the
life of certain ex-preacher, who, in a
Radical speech at the Court House the
other evening, declared that "the Dem
ocratic party was composed of thieving
Irish and Dutch and few mean aohite
men," on the day of the circus, after it
had commenced, approached the agent
at the door, and called out the Mayor
who was seated inside with his family.
The agent, thinking riot was brewing,
or some terrible event which required the
immediate presence of the Mayor, en-
tered the arena and called Justify for
Mayor Alexander. The Mayor, being
very modest man, thus being singled
out. "got pretty red in the face,' when
all eyes were thus directed to him. ol
With official duty calling for his pres
ence, he succeeded, after much crowding,
pulling and tramping corns, in making
through the crowd to the door. There
he was confronted by this ex-preacher
with the request that: "Say, Mayor,
give me complimentary ticket; 1 don't
want to pay these scoundrels any
money! The Mayor is not, as gem
eral thing, a profane man, but it is said
by our informant, who overheard this
conversation, that some expletives were
brought into requisition by the Mayor.
The chap, however, succeeded in "go-
ing" to the show. He assisted the team
sters in carrying in the lion cage, which
admitted him. He talks loudly of
Mieoing Irish, Dutch, and mean aohite
men. There is not Democrat in this
wide world that would stoopto as low
and mean a thing as he did in the above
performance.-Na Van Vert Times.

The Conventions.

For quarter of century we have
been in the habit of attending Demo
cratic Conventions, and witnessing the
mode and manner, the spirit and pathos
OF those institutions; and we must say
that seldom have we witnessed such per-
feet harmony and good feeling among all
the members present as at the Whining
ton Convention of the 23d inst. Every
Democrat present seemed full of faith
in the success of the candidate, be he
whom he might, then and there nomina-
ted. No one hesitated-no one doubted
this result. The ballotings, which were
many, were conducted in the most
friendly and good humored manner, each
contending earnestly but good naturedly
for his favorite candidate, until the final
result, when every one came in most
gracefully. and gave the nominee his
cordial and enthusiast c greeting, prom
Using the best efforts for his election
The name Of Barrere seemed to harmon-
ize all, and every body acceded to his
nomination with cordiality and zeal
The good feeling and earnest resolves
of the Convention constitute a hatter-
ing augury of coming success. The
glorious cause Of the people is moving
Steadily onward, and the time draweth
nigh when the Radical destructionists
will be driven from power. 70 this end
let every man who values the liberties
and respects the Constitution of his
country go to work and work faithfully
and earnestly from now till the election.
Better work few weeks now for your
country than be compelled, to work,
work, toll, toll, the balance of your days
for the benefit of the bondocracy and
extravagant party in power, who eat
out your substances and gather gold
from every drop of sweat from your
brows.-Broacn County Neaos. % l''.

Now, reader, self-abuse, venereal dis n
ease badly cured, and sexual excesses,
are all capable of producing weakness
of the generative organs. The organs
Of generation, when in perfect health,
make the man. Did you ever think that
those bold, defiant, energetic, persever-
ing. successful business men are always
those whose generative organs are in
perfect health? You never hear such
men complain of being melancholy, of
nervousness, of palpitation of the heart.
They are never afraid they cannot sue
ceed in business; they don't become sad
and discouraged; they are always po-
lite and pleasant in the company of la.
dies, and look you and them right in the
face-none of your downcast looks Or.
any other meanness about them. 1 do
not mean those who keep the organs in
famed by running to excess These will
not only ruin their constitutions, but also
those they do business with or for.
How many men from badly cured dis
eases, from the effects of selfabuse and
excesses, have brought about that state
of weakness in those organs that has re-
duced the general system SO much as to
induce almost every other disease -
idiocy, lunacy, paralysis, spinal affec-
tions, suicide,7 and almost every other
form of disease which humanity is heir
too, and the real cause of the trouble
scarcely ever suspected, and have doc
tored for all but the right one. .s5,l - In

The National Debt.

sGrecley Says that the exact figures
Of the national debt are 81, 49l 324-

twenty-five hundred millions. They
collect some four hundred millions
n year in federal taxes, which is ab-
sorbed in meeting the interest Of
this debt and our current federal
expenses and Deficiencies. At this
rate when will the principal of the
debt be so far reduced as to give us
an apprcciable reduction of our
present high taxes, high prices and
the premium on gold! That is the
great question of the day--a ques-
ton which is largely suggesting the
