INDICATIOS OF STORMS,


The War Department Signal Service
observers have great faith in, and are to
some extent governed by. the following
prognostics from the clouds, face of the
sky, etc., for which Prof. Loomis is
authority:
When the upper clouds move in a
different direction from that of the lower
clouds or that of the wind when blow
ing, they foretell change of wind.
When the outlines of cumulus clouds
are sharp, it indicates dry atmosphere /;
therefore presages fine weather. A light
scud, driving across lazy clouds, indicates
wind and rain.
Remarkable clearness of the atmos-
phere near the horizon, and an unusual
twinkling of the stars, indicates unusual
humidity in the upper atmosphere, and
are therefore indications of approaching
rain.
Haloes, carone, etc., presage approach
ing rain or snow. Dew or fog are indi-
cations of fine weather.
Cyclones and tornadoes are preceded
by close, sultry and oppressive atmos-
phere, and the wind is moderate or calm.
A fresh wind sets in-generally from
the east-rises and falls with moaning
sound. After few hours lull occurs
which may last for an hour or more, af-
ter which the wind changes to the west
often suddenly-and blows with in
creased violence. During the passage
of the barometer oscillates in remark
able manner, rising and falling rapidly,
so that great barometric oscillation in
variably announces the approach of a
tempest. The most rapid fall begins
from three to six hours before the maxi
mum force of the storm is felt.

THE GRAND OPENING At THE Id
DIES, STORE

The first grand opening of fashions and styles
took place at the Ladies' Store op Thursday,
the 1st October. The Proprietress, Miss g.
c. Daniels, had just returned from New York
with the latest beauties and varieties, fresh
from that noted emporium of fashion, the Pa
lais Royal. From early morning until late in
the evening, the Store was thronged with Ia
dies, all eager to behold tho latest novelties in
the way of dress. Wiro Cones wore suspended
from the ceiling, upon which hung artificial
flowers of every hue and variety, real ostrich
plumes, of many colors, and many other beau
tiful things too numerous to mention. The
counters were heaped with ladies' hats and
dress goods of the finest qualities. We were
shown the styles of dress for winter, which arc
grey and brown, and arc very pretty. Mover
before have we seen so many ladies congrcgat-
ed together in our town as they were at the
Ladies' Store on Thursday, the 1st inst. The
most tastidious lady can be suited and pleased
by visiting tho Ladies' Store, for there she will
find beauties that will make her more beauti-

REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

Pursuant to a call from Col. J. r. Cochran,
the County Chairman, q Convention of Repub-
licans was held in the Greeley Institute on
Monday last. The meeting was called to ordor
by the Chairman, and its object stated, viz: to
consider the propriety of making County NOM
nations. Moses Lee was then elected tempo
rary Secretary, and q Committee of nno on
Credentials appointed by the Chairman. Up
on motion, Committee of three were appoint
cd on permanent organization. The Commit
tees repaired to their rooms, and during their
absence considerable discussion took place.
After some time the committees returned and
reported as follows: The Committee on Gro
dentials reported all correct, and that OIL organ
ization reported Henry Kennedy as permanent
Chairman; Edmund Carter, permanent Secre-
tary, and George Caldwell, Sergeant-at-arms.

A Destructive Storm.
E. B. MURRAY, Secretary,

The equinoctial storm of Monday, 25th of
September, was unusually severe upon the sea-
cost from Savannah, Ga, to Wilmington, N.
c., and particularly destructive in Charleston
and its vicinity. The total loss in the old city
is estimated at $25O,OOO. The demoishment
of the sea wall known as the Battery, almost
impregnable as it was apparently, is among the
striking events of the fearful cyclone. 1t
will probably require more than $4,000 to re-
pair the damage to this Battery alone. The
immense walls of the new theatre, in course of
erection, were likewise prostrated to the ground,
inficting great loss upon the contractors. In
nearly every portion of Charleston, there are
numerous evidences of the terrible effects pro-
duced ny this almost unexampled cyclone. In
the neighborhood of Savannah and Whining
ton, the greatest loss occasioned by the storm
is the destruction of the rice crop, which is
fearfully damaged.

TOWN AND COUNTY NEWS
T. D. KENNEDY, LOCAL EDITOR.
BRIEF MENTION.


Cotton is coming into town very fast, and
business is getting lively.
Flocks of wild pigeons have been passing
Southwark for the last few days.
Monday last was the coldest day of the sea-
son, and made good many persons believe
that winter had surely come.
Our young friend, Mr.. Samuel NJ. Orr, is at
present connected with the enterprising and
extensive firm of FAINT, Bell & Co., where he
can always be found by his many friends. Mr..
Orr is good salesman, and will use his utmost
endeavors to please and satisfy all customers.
Try him.
We are sorry to learn that Willie Emerson,
son of Mr.. Samuel Emerson, met with pain
full accident on Monday last, by being thrown
from buggy in front of the residence of Mr..
Daniel Brown. The buggy seat was broken
off, and fell upon him. He received injuries
on the head and back, but these, we arc glad to
learn, are not serious.
The annual Camp Meeting at Providence
Church. commenced on Thursday last, and
ended on Tuesday morning. On Sunday the
number present was greatest--numbering
about fifteen hundred persons, including can
didates. The morning sermon was preached
by the Rev. r. P. Franks, and the afternoon
sermon by the Rev. Walter Dickson. During
the afternoon considerable interest was mani
tested in the meeting, and for time great ex-
element prevailed.

The Independent Republican Convention

This body assembled in Charleston on Friday
last, Oct. 2nd Twenty counties were repre-
sented. Hon. T. G. Dunn, of Horny, was elec-
ted President, and delivered stirring address
on assuming the chair, explaining the purpose
of the movement and showing the causes tor
dissatisfaction in the Republican ranks. Ihe
actual business of the Convention was not
reached until Saturday morning, when the
committee on platform and rules made its re-
port The platform and rules are identical
with those adopted by the Chamberlain Radi-
Gals, including the civil rights clause in the
platform, and these documents were unanl-
monsly adopted as the sentiments of the
tsabolters." ~
The next thing in order was the selection Of
candidates for Governor and Lieutenant Gov
ernor which was mere formality, as the NOM
ination had been chosen in caucus. Judge
John T. Green, of Sumter, was nominated tor
Governor, and Maj Martin R. Delaney, OF
Charleston, for Lieutenant Governor of South
Carolina.
An executive committee was elected, and
other matters of detail arranged. The following
resolutions were adopted, setting forth the
animus of the movement, and appealing to the
white people for support:
Reaolced, That the Independent Republican
movement is not hostile to the domination OF
the Republican party in South Carolina, but is
designed to maintain its integrity against the
corrupt "rings" which control it, and at the
same time protect the common interests of the
whole people of the State.
> Resoiued, That while maintaining the integ-
rity of the Republican party in South Carolina,
we cordially invite the whole people of the
State to support the nominees of this conven-
tion as the only means of preserving their com
mon interests-especially requesting the Con.
servatives that having persistently declared
that their desire was only for good government,
without regard to partisan politics, they will
now attest the sincerity of their declarations
by marching with us, shoulder to shoulder, for
the triumphant election of Green and Delaney,
and the certain redemption of the State from
the corrupt "rings" which have desgraced the
Republican party, and trampled upon the in
terests of Republicans and Conservatives alike.

Col. Cochran, and adopted by the meeting,
which were ordered to be submitted to the
Conservative mass meeting which had assem-
bled in the Court House. An expression of
opinion regarding nominations was then made
by the Chairmen of the different County pre-
cincts. The majority were opposed to nomi-
nations, and favored the right Of every man
voting as he pleased, without regard to party.
Speeches were then made by Col. W. D. Wilkes,
Col. J. R. Cochran and Samuel Johnson. They
all concurred that the best plan was not to have
any party politics in this County, but to vote
for good and true men, lot them belong to any
party.

The Chamberlain Meeting.

In another column will be found report of
of the political meeting held in the Court House
on Tuesday last, in the interest of the Cham
lain Radicals. Between four and five hundred
persons were present, one-third of whom are
opposed to the nominees of this wing of Repub-
licans We listened attentively to the speeches
of Mr.. Chamberlain and Judge Melton, and
while both of these gentlemen essayed to i'm
press their hearers with decent regard for the
principles of the Republican pnrty, there was
lacking just exposition of the a5omina6le
practices which have rendered the organization
in this State supremely odious in the sight Of
honest men throughout the country, without
regard to party afiliation. Mr.. Chamberlain
is fluent, Impressive and eloquent speaker,
and none can refuse to acknowledge his uncom-
mon talents. But these favorable indications
are oyershadowed by the undeniable fact that
his record fails to show where he has used his
extraordinary talents and numerous gifts to
stem the tide of corruption, proAigacy and NAL
&ssanee in Office during all these years of op-
preston and misrule. He was connected with
the Scott administration four years, and oppor-
tuuity was not wanting to exert an influence
In the right direction. For these sins of omis-
sion he is justly held responsible, and promises
of reform cannot oblterate the record already
made. The people will not forget that he was
part and parcel of the infamous dynasty under
Scott, nor will the excuses offered in his behalf
avail to satisfy intelligent, honest men that he
is worthy of trust and confidence in the future.
Judge Melton's speech was an ingenious de-
fence of native South Carolinians who had
allied themselves with the Republican party,
and an artful effort to convince his hearers that
great reforms had been effected within the last
two years. He made a candid acknowledge
ment of the purpose intended to be effected by
these meetings, which was not so much an
electioneering tour as might be supposed, for
votes were not needed to elect their candidates,
as an abundance were already secured and
certain to be supplied. He confessed in SUBJ
stance that they were on a recruiting expedi-
tion, and we're prepared to receive accessions
to their ranks from every quarter, but he neg.
lected to state whether or not rations and cloth
ing were furnished, or what the bounty amount
ed to. We presume the recruiting sergeants
will be relied upon to arrange the details.
1t was not our privilege to hear the Hon. S.
L. Hoge dilate upon the situation. His speech,
we are informed, was an appeal to the passions
and prcjudices of the negro, which was always
the principal stock in trade Of this eminent in
dividual. Democratic outrages and expressions
form the staple of his speeches, and we are
glad to know that his recent effort was prompt
ly characterized as incendary in his presence.

may follow, and though Dr. Wistor's BdISam
