PErERsoS's MAGAZINE, that Queen OF
the Lady's Books, is on our table for NO
vember. The principal steel engraving
"Mamna's Flower Girl" is very beautiful.
So, also, is the mammoth colored steel fash
ion plate. But, as cotemporary says, the
stories, the fashions, the patterns, in short,
everything in Peterson" is the. best of its
K ind. For 1876 great Improvements will be
made. Among these will be series of IL
lustrated articles, describing the Centennial
Exhibition which will alone be worth the
subscription price. But, in addition to this,
every. subscriber will be presented, as a
Centennial Gift, with q superb steel engraY-
ing (large-sized fer framing) of Trumbull

the price will remain the same, viz: Two

Abbeville and NeWberry-..LOss
and Gain.

We copy from the Abbeville Press
and Banner the following happy no.
tice of the marriage of our townsman,
j. F. J. Caldwell, Esq, and the &C.
complished Miss Rebecca c. Connor,
and take this occasion to add our felici-
tations to the welded pair. The Press
and Banner says that Abbeville's loss
is Newberry's gain, and We are pleased
that it is so.
Cokesbury was the scene Of a bril-
liant wedding on Wednesday evening
last, Sept. 29th, which took place in
the Methodist Church before large
assembled audience of invited guests.
Mai. J. F. J. Caldwell, a gallant Con-
federate officer in the late war and
now a prominent member of the New
berry Bar, at 8 o'clock, led the beauti-
ful Miss Rebecca G. Connor up the
aisle of the church to the altar, where
the Rev. Mr.. Barbour administered
the marriage VOWS of the Methodist
church in the most impressive manner.
After the marriage the bride and
groom, together with the attendants
and other invited guests, repaired to
the mansion of the BRIDES father, Col.
F. A. Connor, where this elegant
company were entertained in prince
ly manner. The following named per-
sons were groomsmen and bridesmaids
on this interesting occasion:

The Election i'm Charleston.

The Independent Republican ticket
has been elected and Charleston has
cause to rejoice. The contest has
been sharp, and much bsd blood has
been stirred, but we trust that bad
feelings will subside and public affairs
work harmouiously. Many Of the
names on the tickets are those of good
men, who have been tried and not
found wanting. The vote stands 6,2l7
for Cunningham, and 4,0l9 for Wag-
ener. The board of Aldermen shows
improvement on the past, as also the
board of School Commissioners. On
the whole, the result is satisfactory.

OrS8niZati0n.

The Press Of the State is agitating 6
the question of an organization of the
Conservative party, and it is right
that so grave and important matter
should have proper consideration. The
old lines, should be blotted out, and
the old time leaders asked to retire.
We do not propose any plan, and think
honestly that the fewer the plans the
better, but we do think that a new
course With new leaders should beinsist-
ed on by such Of the Press who show
disposition to direct opinion. Old
things should be done away with,
preiudiees laid aside, or buried is the
better term; and all the best elements
brought together to Sght against the
corruption which riots SO raukly over
the State. The fight should be made
;squarelyagaiust rascality, if anything
is expected to come of it. There can
be no objection to organizing, provided
it be done with wisdom and discretion {.
There is enough of good material in
the Republican party, which, if it can
be. secured. TO- help in the good cause
of .purging the State, to insure VIC
tory. Let the proper effort be made
to attach that element to the Gonserya-
tive side. -,,..*... = ...... ~.

Tn a late letter on irternationa

In a late letter on international
copyright to the New York Tribune,
Charles Reade, the famous English
novelist, mildly remarks that "the
greatest asses God has ever made are
little lawyers. Your little lawyer is a
man who has parted with the good
sense of the layman, and has not ad-
yanced one inch towards the science
Of q Mansfield OF Story"

now j. F. j. Caldwell, Esq, takes
another, the fairestSf the fair, and it

J Of course they are, Mr.. Press and
Banner, and We hope they may long
continue so, at the same time, if it
were in our power, We would put a
stop 70 this rib taking from foreign
parts. In this case especially are we
powerless, the, gentlemen named are
all Of the legal fraternity and haze the
law on their side. If We were to put
in demurrer they might bring suit
against US for contempt Of lawful
courting. Still We make no complaint,
but rather feel satisfaction at the gain
to our society, and if it must be stop
ped, you must exercises your ingenuity
in circumventing any further iuroads

you, however, thatit is dangerous to in,

with the counsel fees amounts to
$4,000, recently adjudged to his al

point was made as to whether or not
Brigham Young, knowing full well

not tacitly contract an illegal mar
riage. The matter will be presented
to the Cabinent to-day by Judge
Pierrepont, who is of the opinion
that Young will be discharged.
