A BOLD ADVOCATE FOR GENERALIZATION
The loyalty and devotion of Parson Brown
LOW cannot be questioned, we presume, and his
utterances reflect the opinions of the Radical
party, albeit like his prototype (THADDEUs
STEvENs) these utterances are sometimes in
advance of his associates. We give an extract
from recent letter, signed W. G. BRowNIow,
and dated from Washington, in which the doc
trine of the abolition of the States is boldly
avowed as his political shibboleth:
'Had I my way would so reconstruct the
government of the United States as to form a
Strong central government here. in the District
of Columbia, and organize the States as SO
many colonial coporations, as absolutely depen-
dent upon and subject to the will of the central
power at Washington as are counties to States.
'Thus would wipe out and exptirpate the
whole theory and pretence of State rights and
State sovereignty, to which we are mainly in
debted for the late rebellion.
"While only speak for myself Ibelieve that
Congress and the country are looking in the
same direction"

JUDGE CARPENTER. Charleston Re
publican announced on last Saturday that this
gentleman was acting with the Citizens Party,
and it was possible that he would be the nomi-
nee of that party for Governor. Judge CAR
PEWTER writes to the editor that this is an
error, and that since biz ..-Sion to the. bench,
he has refrained "from taking an active part
in politics" He concludes in the following
terms:
1t is true, though a Republican, that I have
very decided views in reference to the want of
fitness and integrity of certain men who have
obtained political preferment from the Rcpuh-
lican party and in private hfe, among person
al friends of all shades of political opinion, I
have not hesitated to give those. views express
sion. But am not and have not been can
didate for the Governorship at the hands Of
any party, and have not sought, nor shall /
seek, such distinction.

RELIGIOUS IrEMs.-The Southern Baptist
Convention, recently in session at Louisville,
KY, was we'll attended, and its members en-
braced many of the most distinguished divines
of the denomination. The proceedings were
chiefly confined to the consideration of reports
from the Domestic and Foreign Mission Boards.
The Theological Seminary at Greenville met
with WARM encouragement, and an earnest ap-
peal in its behalf secured s25OO to assist in the
education of young men for the ministry. A
resolution was unanimously adopted adverse to
cooperation with Northern Baptists. Rev. B.
MANLY, of Greenville, was appointed ON the
Sunday School Board. The next annual con-
vcntion will be held in ST. Louis ON Thursday
before the second sabbath in May, 1871.
The Sunday School Convention of this State
met in Charleston on last Thursday, and con-
tinued in session until Saturday evening. The
proceedings were entertaining and instructive,
and the representation from the various eoun-
ties full and gratifying. Messrs. R. S. HILL
and JOHN III. CLARK were the delegates in at
tendance from the Sunday Schools of this place.
The former was elected one of the Vice Presi-
dents of the Convention. Adjourned to meet
in Charleston on Wednesday after the second
Sunday in May, 1872.

FATAL Acc1DENT.-On of the most fearful
accidents it has been our lot to record occurred
on Sunday last, resulting in the death of Mrs.
SAa1UEL-RE1D, of oconee County. 1t seems
that, in company with her husband, she-left
home in buggy for the purpose of going to
Walhalla, and only s. short distance from their
residence the horse took fright; and Mrs. REID
was thrown from the buggy, meeting with al
most instant death. Her remains reached here
on yesterday morning, and were carried to Va
rennes Church for interment. She was ma
tive of this county, we believe, and leaves nu-
merous relatives and friends to mourn her un-
timely death.
