THE DOWNFALL OF RADIcALIsM.
The Barnwel Sentinel has an article ON an

any sort OF peace or quiet. Any attempt, by
nation OF ideas, interests, or feelings. must
constantly prove abortive and unavaillng.
In another article it predicts the speedy
downfall OF Radicalism, thus:

THE FEELING IN FAIRFIELD.
A citizen OF Wlnnsboro', OF high character
and standing, sends an energetic protest to
the Columbia Phonix against the 'third par
ty" movement, supported by the Winnsboro'
News. He says:
And, first, let me declare my firm belief that

THE THIRD PARTY MOVEMENT.
Tho Winnsboro' News still harps on the
