The Charleston Nscs. through its cor

mongrel boiling Democratic ticket. We
have travelled the county, and arc posted as
TO the views Of the Republicans Of Colleton.
Chamberlain, before the nomination, was
the unanimous choice of the Republicans,
and he certainly has lost mono Of his
strength; besides, Colleton always supports
the regular nominee. The county was thor
onghly canvassed two years ag, by the
Tomlinson Party, and although the county
chairman and commissioners of election
were active supporters of that party, he
only received about four hundred votes in
the county, fifteen of which were Republi-
eau. The present poll will not carry thu
half that the Tomlinson ticket did. Itcor-
responds with the statements of the Neps
and Courier before the Convention as to the
immense strength of Governor Moses; that
he would sweep everything in the Conven-
ton; but behold, when the Convention met,
he received one voto in one hundred and
tw enty-four. Tho Conservative vote that
supported in n small degree the Tomlinson
ticket will not endorse any ticket gotten up
by such notorious characters as Mcintyre.

To Ike Editor Of the Daily Onion Herald:
That the people of the State may know
how the bolter's delegation to the Greenhorn
convention, to be held ut Charleston on tn
I'd prox., was gotten up, and the extent Of
the same we desire to say that the me citing
was held in Trial Justice w. II. Thomas'
Office and consisted of soma half dozen per-
sons, NIL from the town of Newberry.
The parties agcd in the meeting have
never had any influence in this community.
One Of the delegates was pardoned out Of
the pentoniiary. Another is recent i'm
porta ton, whose history, MS far as known,
is of the most Objectionable character,
preacher, lawyer, trial justice, school teach
er and -baggcr-in short. an adven-
turer. The remaining one, constitutions

sum Ed" one whose vote never cost tho de

one who cost the State large amount of
money in the way of pny certificates, with
out rendering any services, remaining all
the time at his home in this town. The Int
er was appointed few dnys ago chairman
of this county by carpet-baggcr Dunn.
This delegation will be compelled to board

The project Of the Fort st. Philip canal
has been reported upon favOrably by
board of eminent engineers, SIX 10 one,

the plan, not considering 1t su1ncienIiy vi,
gested in an engineering point OF view, ana
claiming that the surveys are not complete
and elaborate enough. There may De GOOD
reasoninp in this, but tiis should not stop
the Great work. If the opinions and con-
victions of the United States corps OF en-
oineeIs from its chief down, are to be set
aside. and the crude blllorary speculaflons
of outsiders to the profession OF engineer
ing prevail in the high councils OF our ma
ton, then abolish the corps OF engineers al
once IA a useless, worthless and unneces-
sarv mart of our army organization.
The engineers report upon the Fort st.
pbilin canal is as full and as complete as
such reports are generally, and can be
made. The canal projected will be great
work. perLaps difficult Of execution and
undoubtedly costly. 1t is the province OF
engineering to overcome the physical diff
culties, that of Congress and the nation to
furnish the means. Governor Heberts
enlarged upon the vast Importance OF
this outlet to the immense and
as vet undeveloped commerce of the
Mississippi valley, and concluded by saying
that the attempt already tried and disas-
trously failing OF deepening the passes by q
system of jetties, would be reckless ana
wasteful expenditure of the public money.
There should be no sectional feeling IN TINS
matter. Let New York and the Atiantic
seaports have hundred canals II they
choose, but let the Mississippi have one,
and only one
