THE STATE JOURNAL.

| The STATE Journal enters spon new career,
under auspices which promise permanence and
1 increased usefulness
This paper will be Republican. The organ OF
no wing or clique, it will aim to represent the
policy of the National party; to build up a heal
thy National sentiment and inspire love of the
whole country.
1t will not be the vehicle of personal detraetion
nor be used to get its pets into Office to keep
others out. The safety Of all is in the triumph
Of the cause; and TO secure it, all must labor
zealously and deyotedIy, and take their chances
in the general result. 4s
Aiming to treat every member of its own party
generously, it will be just to its opponents. 1t
will discuss all questions Of public interest fairly
and temporarily. Asserting the right earnestly
and resolutely and batting no jot or little of the
truth which it is called to declare, it will aim to
speak the truth in love-"
1t will commend genius, patriotism and virtue
everywhere, and be as prompt to expose corrupt
tion and inbecility in its own party in another
We shall advocate all measures to advance the
public good, originating in our own party or out
side There are vital questions enough between
us and the opposition without seeking issues
where all good men should stand on common
ground Ug fa ass. t.4si

The following is more extended notice
of the difficulty which occurred at Culpeper
courthouse Saturday between Mr.. Lewis
and Mr.. Carneal, a carpenter:
The latter met Mr.. Lewis ON the street
and accused him of assailng his private
character in court. Lewis tried to explain
to him that he had only done his duty for
, the Commonwealth. Carneal then struck
him with Ratchet on the hip. Then a
regular fight ensued. F
They were separated, and Mr.. Lewis
went TO his office and returned with friend
to where Carneal was at work, and chal-
lenged him for fair fist fight. Cameal
came out with a Ratchet in his hand, and
refused to put it down, and accused Lewis
the second time of scandalizing him in
court. Lewis then called him sd
liar,o and Carneal returned it. Lewis then
threw rock at him, and Carneal threw his
Ratchet at Lewis. Lewis lodged, aud
gathered the Ratchet, made for him. Car
neal ran some distance, but Lewis, getting
in proper distance, threw the Ratchet at
him but missed his aim. Then struggle
ensued for the Ratchet, which Carneal man
aged to get hold Of, inflicting severe
wound in the back of Lewis, also severe
wound in the forehead, which knocked him
senseless. They were then parted, which
ended the fight. Mr.. Lewis was carried TO
house near by and proper medical assis-
lance procured. His wounds, though Sc
we're, it is thought will not prove fatal.

We shall be happy TO see the old hulk of

Having. been deputed, in pursuance of

whose names are subjoined, we do hereby
call the above named convention to meet in
the city Of Columbia, South Carolina, on

Meridian.
As the convention did not advise as to
what should constitute the ratio of repre-
sentation, we suggest that the respective
States be representatively apportioned the
same as they are in the Congress Of the Uni
ted States, to wit: one delegate from each
Congressional District, and two from the
State at large, and two from the District of
Columbia. The several Congressional Dis
tricts will elect their own delegates, which
elected delegates may meet and elect two
for the State at large, unless the respective
States shall otherwise provide by State con-
ventions.
Those who may be accredited as dele
gates should meet the convention prepared
to remain in session a week, il necessary,
as questions requiring mature deliberation
will doubtless be brought before it, and
should not be disposed of precipitantly.
