the trouble to stretch out their hands and
pluck the fruit which swings over them. The
struggled is not hopeless Is full Of hope.
Already the cause has made far more. pro-

The whites have only to allow themselves to
hope. This will lead them to work. And
work gives us the victory.
We must not expect the Union Reform
party to be a political mitrailleuse, which,
with the turn Of crank and '.gruntins
"roll," exterminates the enemy. Long
taw fighting will not serve in political cam
paigns. Thoroughly prepared, and well
drilled, the people must meet the Scott Ring

the political way of "giving them the oayo-
net" in October.

from the Bennettsvile Journal that several
Union Reform clubs have been organized In
Marlboro, and that the people are waking up
The Abbeville Press says: ''If we have
many more such rows as that which took place
at Chester on the 18th Instant, we Shall SET
down. the defeat OF the Republican party as
certain"
We observe that Colonel McKlssick is In
the field az the Union Reform candidate foI
Congress- In the Fourth Congressional District.
Colonel McKisslck is genuine Carolinlan,
and man Of fine Judgment and earnest char
acter. He will, we hope and believe, be tri.

The I.aurensyille Herald says: "Mr. Jas.
A. Hoyt has been named In connection with
the Senate, as representative Of Anderson.
His recognized abilities point him out as q
suitable man for the times. With such men In
the State Legislature, we might hope for an
early destruction of the Orr-Scott-Whitte-
more. party.'
The Clarendon Press, after giving the rea'
sons for Its long reticence, says: 1.-THE people
at large adopted the course recommended oy
the Union Reform party. For time we en-
tertained views in regard to the party. that
made us hesitate in giving expression to our
line of conduct After mature deliberation we
feel it our duty to support Hon. R. B. Carpen'
ter for Governor, and General NJ. G. Butler for
Lieutenant-G Governor, and we heartily Wish
them God-speed in their efforts to reform the
evils that exist in high places, by reason of the
power Of bad men,,
On Saturday, the: goth instant, in response
to call from the Union Reform club, one OF
the largest and most enthusiastic meetings since
the war of the citizens of Cheraw Township,
was held at Brooks Mills. The colored popu-
lation was largely represented. The meeting
was organized BY calling Mr.. E. N. Wells 10
the chair, and Mr. s. G. Godfrey was requested
to act as secretary. Addresses were delivered
by Captain H. McTver, Mr. G. W. Duvall and
Colonel J. C. Colt. The speakers all ably aud
earnestly called the attention Of their hearers
to the present critical condition Of public at
fairs. The corruption and extravaganza Of
the party were held up to view, and such an
array Of evidence and figures were presented
as to carry conviction to the minds Of the
most obtuse.
