FOR TIE JOURNAL.

We live in an age of wonderful events
and scarcely il day fails to bring its own pc.
aulTar addition to the protracted catalogue
of the new and wonderful The world Of
science advances with steady rapidity and
ever and anon, with unabatcd interest, IRE
read Of new discoveries, Which convince US
that the theory of progress in the human
family is we'll founded and true.
But in nothing does change so clearly
show itself as in the political world, the mu-
liability of which is blended in its very axis.
tence 10 prove what have said, We hav e
but to cast Il retrospective. glance over the
country as it was four years ago. Then,
the columns of our political enemies were
long and thick, and pregnant with the
strength of years. Now, this mighty pha.
lunx has been burst asunder, without the
stretch Of nerve, or the cxertion of sim
gle faculty on our part. -Four years ago, We
viewed foremost among our foes, the very
ones who now lead us: Horace Greeley,
Carl Schurz, Charles Sumner, Charles Fran
els Adams, and host of others, the celebri-
ty of VIII ON speaks too well of the soundncss
of their views. And now, the revolution,
80 long the subject Of prophecy of politi-
clans, has had its beginning, verifying the
assertion that "the Radicals of ono year
ago, become the Liberals of the next"
You have, Mr.. Editor, noticed the pre-
posterous character Of sentiments very muck
in circulation among the prejudiced portion
of our citizens concerning the Liberals.
1t is asserted that Horace Greely has come
over to our sentiments, and that SO complete
a change Of political views, indicates duplici-
ty and want of sincerity, not knowing that
'ee are the onos who have changed, and
that Greeley and others had the magnanimity
to trust, and receive US. The other party

The Grant Democracy.

Mr.. E. +. Stokes, chairman Of the SOCIAL.
ed Executive Committee of the Democratic
Party of South Carolina, gives public notice
that during the remaindcs of tho campaign,
his head quarters will be in the city of Co.
lumbia, and all Democrats Of his way Of
thinking are invited to send him their names
to be inscribed upon roll of PATRIOTS"
which he intends to keep.
Mr.. Stokes may be man of honor; very
likely he is, but when he undertakes to op-
pose Greeley, he certainly aids Grant
Grant will furnish him all the money he
and his coadjutors need, ond since it has
been made public that the Baltimore Boilers
Convention was gotten up and run by the
New York Day Book, and since its foun-
dation has been broken up by the desertion
of its founder, is it not time that all sensible

to the summit, seven miles, is accomplished
in tFmty-fve minutes.
The University is yet in its infancy, but
gives promise of great things and this year
there are between two and three hundred
students in attendance. The boys are the
best behaved set we have ever seen, and their
behavior shows the effect of the excellent
discipline which is brought to bear upon
them. There is, in point of situation, no
place superior to Sewanec, as the health of
the boys is excellent and many persons visit
it annually for the benefit of their health.
All the schools have been thoroughly organ
lied and there is every prospect of the
University proving thorough success Un-
fortunately, our stay here was short, and we
did not see all that We desired, but we saw
enough to recommend the institution to any
one who desires to give his children a first
rate education, under excellent moral infu-
ences.
10 shew how inconvenient travelling some
times, is we will narratc our experience, in re-
turning home. Leaving Cowan at o'clock
in the afternoon, we reached Chattanooga at
4 Is and leaving there at 4 30, we reached
Atlanta at - 20, p. NJ, and remained there
until 8 80 o'clock, next morning, whence
we arrived at Augusta at Is that afternoon
and reached Columbia at 10 30 o'clock that
night, where we had to remain until two
o'clock the next day. Making the entire
trip of more than five hundred miles inside
of ffty-four hours; we laid over twenty
four of them.
We conclude our narrative recounting
an incident which was related to us by q
gentleman near Sewanee: During the ter.
riblc fights around Chattanooga, two large
trains of wounded soldiers of the enemy
were going from that point to Nashville.
About two miles this side Of Cowan, il q
tunnel mile in length, and upon passing
through steep down-grade, isreached. The
engineer of the rear train was not well ac-
quainted with the road, so that he let his
engine out as he passed the.tunnel. While
running round a curve, he saw just in his
front, the other train. Seeing that.a collis-
ion was inevitable, he leaped from his en-:
gine, leaving the train to its fate. Rushing
on, the trains collided on high embank-
nent, and nearly every car in both trains
was thrown from the track down the preci-
pice, killing more than two hundred Of the
unfortunate soldiers.
What q fate for those who had escaped
the death of the battlefield!

OBITUARY.

Died, suddenly, in Camden, S. c., July y,
1872, CAMPBELL DOUGLAS, Jr., in the seven
tcenth year Of his age. ''"..
The subject of this sketch was youth of w.
usual promise: His sudden and unexpected
death afforded another illustration of that Oft
repeated saying, "Dcath loves n shining mark. y
lie was born in Charleston, S. CoFebrnary
10, 1855, and from the earliest childhood gave
hopes of bright and promising future. But
these hopes have all been crushed by the unre-
lenting hand Of death, and the grave has closed
over the cherished hopes and expectations of
family and friends. And yet, short rs his life
was, he had secured the love and respect of NIL
who knew him. Probably no youth in this city
was more generally esteemed. His death has
made sad void in his own home, for he nobly
filled the place of son and brother. His po-
lite manners and pure character gained him n
host of friends outside of his own home, who
sympathise deeply with the family in the heavy
loss they hdyo sustained. At the time of his
death lie was taking short rest from his labori-
Gus duties in the Western Union Telegraph Of
=
fee Of this city, where he was employed He
was the leader of the singing of the Sunday
School of The First Baptist Church, and when
the sod announcement of his death was made to
the school, teachers and children wcpt together
over the loss of one whom they all loved so well.
They wcpt again, as they followed his remains
to the Cemetery of the First Presbyterian
Church, and among the names that will llngcr in
their memories, that of Campbell Douglas will
shine brightest among them all. ..
While we cannot interpret the mysterious
providence which las so suddenly terminated
this young and promising life, still we know well
that " God is too wise to err; too good TO be un-
kind L. H. s.

PerniciOuS PurgatiVes.

The brilliant idea of half century ago
that the weak and ailing could be bled
blisteIed and salivated into condition o.
health and vigor is happily exploded; but
violent and prolonged purgation is still, TO
some extent, in vogue. We have impos-
tors who are daring enough to offer to the
world, as tonics and restOratives, the most
destructive catharticS, unmodified by a
single stimulating soothing or restorative
element. Compare the operation OF one OF
these terrible nOStrums with that of Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, in which are COM
bined the three great curative elementS-a
tonic, an Alternative and an aperient. The

strength OF he patient, while II restores the
suspended functions OF the Secretory or

fence or pain. II is simply choice be-
tween restoration and prOstration.

Oue OF the incidents OF the campaign

which took place in Tennessee Tor the
position OF member of Congress at

and General FRANK CHEArHAM, q gal
LIANT. jolly, cool natured and popular
ex Confederate, had received the regular
Democratic nomination. Claiming that
the convention that nominated
CHEAruAM did not represent the
will OF the Democratic party,
and animated, not unlike the
ii-,ngu shed Governor Of West Nir-
.infa, with q desire to "uurity the

announced himself IS an Independent
candidate for Congress all "stumped
the State" in that capacity. In the
course of the canvass Mr. JOHNSON had
much to say in disparagement OF the
Convention system OF making nomlna-
tons. and repeated all the arguments
hat were 80 familiar to the people OF
West Virginia prior to the August
election. Mr.. MAYNARD appealed to
the Republicans to stand by their nom

the Democrats ratifying the choice OF
