throughout. Added to his conspicuous

his etudition in the inv. his instructive
experience. and in those manly qualities
OF heart which make him general fa-
vorite, this independent and dignified
attitude before the Legislature served to
conciliate respect and attract suffrages,
irrespective Of party affiliations. But
party men were keen enough to see this
support going forth from Republicans to
one outside Of their organization, and
they hastened to put stop to it. Their
Journals and spokesmen raised the hue
and cry. The rank aud file were leo-
tured upon the virtue of sticking to
their party, Of standing by their colors,
and of strictly drawing the party linea.
They were asked, "Are not ALBANIA and
Pbarpar, rivers of Damascus. better
than all the waters of Israel? May We
not wash in them and be olean?" It
never is difficult to arouse the party
spirit, and men even of independent
mind and character shrink from the
party lash. It was 40 in this case. Par
tisans with their thralls hassened to
their tents and wigwams, their club
rooms and other resorts, and comforted
themselves with practicing the party
manual and repeating the party cries.
The consequence was, they were pre-
pared to look with favor only upon one

The Srcno OF Eleetfon-N unnfnG Debate
on Candidates.
The joint Assembly convened at P.
NJ. for the election Of Judge. w. n.
Jones, of Georgetown, was the fret to
address the joint Assembly. He said
that as Republicans, and as a race, they
were making history. They should see
to it that it be worthy. He stoutly
urged upon them to do no violence to
their Republican faith. They should re-
member and heed The example of two
judges being elected to the Supreme
Court OF the United States expressly to
uphold the reconstruction policy in tho
Southern States. We should show, he
said, to tho eyes OF the civilized world,
by electing oolored man to preside
over the Eighth Circuit, that We have
the talent and learning necessary to the
highest stations. He nominated, after
eulogistio remarks, W. J. Whipper AS his
candidate. Humbert, of Darlington,
nominated Thompson 81. Cooke, OF
Orangeburg. as gentleman, . Republi-
can, and a man of ability. Jervey, OF
Charleston, seconded the nomination OF
Ar. Cooke. He deprecated the effect Of
sending up to district composed moro
largely of white than of colored men
colored Judge. Strife would at once be
fomented. He desired to make this
election test of principle rather than Of
color. he did not favor the election of
Whippor, therefore, and he was equally
opposed to the choice of the circuit,
(Gen. McGowan.) It was not advisable
to elect man standing in direct opposi-
ton to the party in power. Elect a dis
Greet Judge within the party lines. who
would quiet the chronic troubles in the
upper part Of the State. Sperry. OF
Georgetown, seconded the nomination OF
Whipper, and justified the choice of q
man Of color, by reference to the accept
ableness Of Judge Wright on the su-
preme Bench. Ellis, member from Alb
beville, nominated Gen. MCGOWAN, as a
man learned in the law and friend of
the poor.
Boston, of Newherry, proposed the
name Of Goodlett, Of Piokens. Hamil-
ton seconded the nomination OF Whip
