From the best information we now have,
Brother Belts was born on the first ddS Of the
present century. He entered the ministry In
the South Carolina Conference In 1918, and
was for ffty-four years one of Its most useful
and influential members. Upwards of thirty
I'VE years OF this time, probably, was spent IN
what isknown as the Peedee country; hence
the name of Charles Belts was q household
phrasein all these lands. and the death of no
one In this section would be likely to create q
wider or more profound sensation. AS q de-
tailed and complete account Of the life and
labors Of our departed father In Iarael will ap-
pear hearafter, yet as members of the District
Conference, with which he was connected,
this tribute is due to one from-whose large ex-
perlence and sagacious counsel we lave de-
rived such benefit, and whose fndefatigable
labors, pathetic sermons and powerful prayers
have contributed 80 largely to the permanent
establishment of Methodisn, more especially
in this part of the conference territory.
We rejoice to know that while his death
in hand. : For some weeks God had evidently
been leading him into a closer communion
with himself, and when the voice at midnight
came, as q veteran, tranquil amid the alarm
that pervaded his family, and catching bis
Captains eye,
"His spirit, with 8 bound.
Left it's encumb:rng clay,
Ills tent at sunrise on the ground,
A darkened ruin lay" Es.tf1
RESOLVED, That we tender 10 Sister Belts
and family our Christian sympathy and
prayers, that He, who has promised to beta
husband to the widow and a father to the
fatherless," may be their portion in time and
in eternity.
Resolued, That we recommend the erection
of q suitable monument at his grave, by the
church In the bounds Of this district.

We take no hand IN this fight 30 far. The
Democratic Convention Is to meet In July
perhaps 1t may be sooner. To that we look,
and by that we will be guided. That il the
political flag we expect to fight under.
i[From the Augusta ConstitutIonalIst.1
1t is premature to speak of what the action
OF the Democratic party will be. There must
and for q deliberate survey Of the field. That
great party is uncommitted as to its course. II
will not be true to Its traditions and to its duty
II 1t act hastily, excitedly, or under the inspira-
ton OF past prejudice and passion.
From the Savannah Eews.1
We congratulate our Democratic friends On
a .cousummation which augurs 80 favorably
for the restoration of constitutional govern
ment. The nominations at Cincinnati leave
the question of the actual and permanent dis
indignation Of the Radical party no longer In
doubt. A less partisan nomination might
nave resulted In serious compromise and Ger
tain defeat of the friends of the constitution.
All the real elements of strength of the Gin
clnnatl organization are within the Radical
party. It can receive little If any aid from
the true Democracy OF the country, while It,
must, by dividing, weaken the corrupt and
revolutionary dynasty now In possession of
the government. It only remains Tor the
Democratic party to promptly organize Ita
forces and enter vigorously and confidently
into the canvass.

The action of the convention YVES wise. It
meets most OF the conditions; lis candidates
are strong In the North and Northwest; both
of them have been idenlifed with all that has
been good In the Republican party; both are
men who excite great personal enthusiasm;
both come before us as consistent and bold
advocates Of amnesty aud OF constitutional
rule; both declared open opposition to mill.
tary rings and governmental corruption. If
the Democratic party Is wise, Its candidate Is
nominated. If it ls determined, It's victory is
assured.

FoN IN INp1AsAponrs "A day or two

chased q parcel OF Roman candles for the

inquire into particulars, he made the
door in two gigantic leaps. All the occu-
pants OF the room Immediately endea-

worthy determination not to be dis
tanced. the proprietor Of the candles
forced himself into the midst Of the
throng, endeavoring irantically to escape.
In the meantime the candles fixed and
popped. giving strength to the evident
impression that the party was being bonn.

THE LATE ELECTIONS.

The result attained in the late elec-
tions in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana
and Nebraska by the Liberals and
Democrats is not disoouraging. 1t is
true that in Pennsylvania, Backalew
was beaten for Governor by larger
majority than was expected, but the
Liberal gains in Ohio exceeded the
most sanguine expectations of the
friends of reform. In Indiana Hen
bricks is eleleted Governor by small
majority, but enough to indicate TO a
certainty that the electoral vote of
that State will be cast for Greeley in
November. The Democratic State
Central Committee of Ohio have is
sued an address to the Democracy of
that State in which they reproach
them for the apathy shown in the late
election and urging them to repair
the mischief done by rallying to Gree
ley in November. The address says
the result of last Tuesdays election
shows that Ohio was lost by a failure
to poll the usual Democratic vote
Mortifylng as is the fact, justice to
the Liberal Republicans and an ear
nest desire to retrieve the misfortune,
requires of US to declare it." This is
just as we feared it would be, but it is
not to late to retrieve the loss, and
the lesson taught the country by the
result in Ohio, will, we trust, be n
salutary one. The action of the Lib
erals in raliying as they did has GER
tainly convinced their Democratic al
lies of their earnsstness in the cause.
There is nothing more certain than
that victory is within reach of the
Democracy if they will only grasp it,
We trust that in Oregon, at least,
Democrats Will do their whole duty.
Victory is only for the brave, the &C
tive and the vigilant in this age. We
have little faith in the the protes-
tations of fidelity to Democratic
principles of men who stay at home
when the cause they advocate needs
their aid at the polls. If we desire to
be freed from tyranny let us make
use of the means within our control
to dathropa tho tvrap.
