The Cincinnati would-be architects of
ruin seem to be making regular business
of claiming adherents without the slightest
shadow of authority. They claimed Pres
ident Woolsey, Of Connecticut, and he re-
pudiated them, saying that he should sup
port the Philadelphia nominations. They
claimed Captain Ward, well known and
influential politician of Michigan, and he
repudiated them. And these are samples
of others.

Atlantic ocean was thoroughly aroused, as

But Mrs. Partington's spirit was up-she,
too, was aroused-and the way her mops

pe.inuuent and Forfeited Lands.

The sales of delinquent and forfeited lands
IN this County, advertised to take place on the
first Monday in June and days following, have
not yet been made. We are informed that fur
ther delay may be expected, but it would be
unwise for parties to postpone payment, where
they can possibly raise the money, as the sales
can be made at any time deemed proper by the
authorities. Mistakes have been corrected to
some extent, and numerous parties have paid
the taxes and costs, thus reducing the adver-
tised list very considerably. The result of
these sales in other places is shown by the fol-
lowing extract from the Ke0acee Courier:
Tracts worth one thousand to fifteen hundred
dollars were bid in by the owners for one dol
lar, thereby settling taxes amounting to seven
ty-fve to one hundred dollnrs. The instruc-
tions from the State Auditor did not permit the
redemption of forfeited lands by payment of
past due taxes and.assessments, which several
parties offered and desired to do before the sale
We know of one instance when ninety dollars
were rendered for taxes for three years on q
good tract of forfeited land and refused, and on
the sale the land brought one dollar. By this
course four or five hundred dollars, which
would have been saved, weSe lost to the State,
which must also make up deficiency in cost of
sale. From the sale here, we judge the sale of
forfeited lands instead of replenshing will far
ther deplete the Treasury, as the aggregate sale
did not pay the expenses VI advertising, &C.

Not Represented.

The counties of Marion, Marlboro, Chester
ield, Laurens, spartanburg, Oconee and An
derson were certainly not represented in the
State Democratic Convention, which met in
Columbia on Tuesday last, as no meeting was
held in either of the Counties named for the
purpose Of appointing delegates. So far as we
know, the counties of Clarendon, Colleton,
Barnwell, Edgefeld, Fairfield and Beaufort
were likewise unrepresented. Several of the
delegations from other Counties were under in
structions, which savored strongly of opposi-
tion to any representation at Baltimore. Be-
sides, there is every evidence to believe that
some of che delegates were nearly self-appoin-
ted as the attendance upon public meetings
fol, thatpurpose has been notoriously slim and
lacking enthusiasm. From these facts we con-
eiude that the white people of South Carolina
are not in favor of sending delegates to Balti-
more, or taking any very active part in Presi-
dental politics just now, whatever may have
been the result at Columbia.

In a Nutshell.

Mai. Theodore G. Barker, of Charleston, in
note to the editor of the Columbia South
Gurolinian, regarding bis views as to the wisest
course for our people in the pending campaign,
thus forcibly expresses concurrence in the pol
icy recommended by this journal:
1t has been my conviction for some time past
that the minority in South Carolina should alb
stain altogether from organized political action,
and that the beginning, the middle and the
ending of the politics OF our property holders
and tax payers should be to cast their weight,
individually, at the polls and elsewhere, in
support of the best ticket or men put forward
by the Republican party of this State To
make this influence effective, olIr people should
remain uncommitted on every point, until they
come to vote, and then be prepared to sustain
the Conservative men of the State Republican
party-if any such can be found. If not, re-
frain from voting altogether.
Anterior to the above expression from Maj
Barker, correspondent of the Charleston
News over the signature of "W. L. T." strong
ly urged similar views. His initials point to
one of the foremost young men of the State,
and we presume that our talented friend, VIM
L. Trenholm, Esq, is the author of the articles
over this signature. His argument in favor OF
non action i. condensed into two short para
graphs, at the conclusion of his letters, which
we take pleasure in reproducing as follows:
1st That we make no organization whatever,
and have no meetings or conventions, and con-
duct no discussions concerning the Presidential
election. 1t is a matter in which we are pow
erless to accomplish anything, in which our
interest is remote and minute and about which
we really know little, and may we'll care less.
I'd. That in the calm thus produced good cit
izens use their best exertions to harmonize old
antagonisms, to improve the character of Che
local officials and members of the Legislature
to be chosen in October, and to bring into the
public service at home or in Congress the best
of the QrQa!able men.

ton that every effort should be made by the
School Trustees of each School District in the
County to procure competent teachers for the
colored children.
Inquiry was then made for information as to
the amount each School District was entitled
to receive under the appropriation, upon which
VIM. q. Haynie, Esq, School Commissioner,
gave the desired information to the satisfaction
the Convention.
On motion of T. F. Anderson, it was
Resozved, That the proceedings of the Con-
vention be published in the Anderson Intelti-
gencer.
On motion, the Convention was adjourned
