ington correspondent of the Charleston
Courier says:
"From all parts of the county we have
assurances that the nomination. of Davis
and Parker will be accepted by not only
the Reform Republicans, bnt by the
Conservative Democrats, and all Demo-
Gratis are necessarily conservative. 1t is
true that some inveterate politicians will
hold out against the proposed New De
parture," but as Justice Chase has we'll
said, it smoothing new for the Democracy
to bring back the Administration to the
cardinal principles of the Federal Gov
ernment. 1t is not a deviation from,
but return to, the original principles
upon which the Government was fOun-
ded.
Leading and lifelong Democrats of
various sections of the Uuion, now here,
declare that there will be no hesitation
on the part of the Democracy in follow
ing the lead of the Liberal Reform Re-
publicans. They await with deep inte-
rest and much hopefulness the action of
the Cincinnati Convention, which has
been called by the Missouri Liberals and
Conservatives.
The Democratic members will, for the
present, forbear from any demonstration,
but will be prepared to follow and sup

MEETING AT ABBEvILLE.-A letter to
the Columbia Union from correspon-
dent at Abbeville, states that upon the
arrival of State Senator Hollinshead, of
that county, he was received at the depot
by the brass band of the village and
with other marks of appreciation. An
improvised meeting was held, when the
recipient of these favors expressed his
views of the situation generally, and
particularly as regards the County
School Commissioner it is stated, for his
refusal to sign the teachers pay certifi-
Gates.
The letter says;
"Senator Hollinshead explained in
detail, the necessity of having good
man at the helm as School Commission
er, and as far as he (Hollinshead) was
concerned, he had been, and intended to
be hereafter, using every effort in his
power, to not only provide good teach
ers, good books, etc, but to provide for
the payment of such teachers, indepen-
dent of anybody who may endeavor to
thwart such q maglnnimous and impor-
tant institution as the education of the
freed children in South Carolina needed.
Although the object of attack was pres
ent, no reply was made. The school
teachers in this district were notified to
be present Friday, March 10th, 1872, to
receive books, etc."

The HISTORY OF A NATIONAL REMEDY.-Here
is the history of the most celebrated tonic Of the
age in nutshell. In 1901 was announced that
certain combination Of vegetable ingredients.
with pure d:ffusive stimulant, was working
wonders in the cure of chronic dyspepsia, nerv-
GUS debility, liver complaint periodical levers
rheumatism and constitutional weakness The
unpretending name given to the specific was
PLANTATION BITTERs. The statement attracted
the attention Of insalds everywhere. The new
remedy received fair trial. and the results more
than confirmed all that had been said in its praise
Thence forward it was grand success. The bu~
siness columns of the press spread the glorious
news far and wide, and the martyrs to indiges
ton, biliousness, physical prostration and prema
ture decay, as if by common consent, sought re-
lief from the new vegetable restorative. They
found aohat they sought. From that time to the
present the increase in the demand for Plantation
Bitters has been one Of the most striking events
in this age.
For Coughs, Bronchitis and Consumption, in
its early stages, nothing equals Dr.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery.
