This sale is the one that figures in the
Cour7er's bill, 10 sqs. 6 times, $57. By
applying a Measure to it, it will be seen
thatit is eight inches or squares, which
at 90 cents, n insertion, is So, and six
insertions $24-which taken from the
Coayief's charge of $50, leaves $33 over
charged, unless the figures lie or there
is some difference between the Coariey's
square and ours. Again, eight squares
at 81, amount to $8 for one insertion
and $48 for two insertions, which shows
the paradoxical fact that this sale is
cheaper at a dollar a square than It is
at fifty cents q square, by the difference
between S57 and S4s, which is SO.

AGRICULTURAL FAIRS Tho Season
Is near at hand for tho holding of tho
several agricultural fairs in this State
and we arc glad to know that, do.
spite tho general depression of tho
times, tho managers of the various
agricultural societies aro making OK
tonslvo and liboral arrangements for
THO present season, by which those
cNhiblons will be kept up and tho in-
dustres OF tho country encouraged.
Wo havo quito number of woll
managed exhibitions in tho State.
which arc patronzcd to somo extent,
and wo arc glad to note that other
counties arc moving in this direction.
We append list of the agricultural
fairs in this section:
The GrconvilIo fair will take place
on Wednesday, Oct goth, and will last
three days. Exhibitors are invited
from overy section of tho country.
Abbovillc fair will be held on tho
goth, 2lst, and 22d of October. ana
the farmers and planters of Abbovillo
and surrounding country arc expected
TO engage iii lively competition for
tho liberal premiums offcrod.
The Anderson fair will tako place
on tho 9th, 28th, and Goth of October
and the preparations for succossfu
exhibition arc being rapidly pushed
forward. 1t has tho reputation of
the bost county fairs in the State. and
we firmly bolievo that the people of
Anderson will never allow this repu
tation to diminish. 1t is the oldest
organization OF the kind in tho State.
Tho Oconeo Agricultural Society
propose giving an exhibition during
tho month Of October.
Besides, tho State fair deserves os>
pecial mention in this connection, and
ought TO be tho grand culminating eff

10 the evils to be corrected and the
means at our command to remedy

overwhelming defeat, and resulting
further in engendering between the
whites and blacks spirit of division,

Democratic convention, but the blacks
stood firmly by the color line and the

that in Minnesota five per cent. OF tho

how can this be if tho party there
has any organization as such There,
as it should be here, it is the people
uniting to better government. We
must do the same thing here, tens
pering our organization 30 as to
command success. We cannot botter
illustrate the advantages of our past
course over party organization than
by referring our readers to the cam,
paign OF 1874. Under q Demo-
cratic nomination in Pickens, the
majority for the Democrats was
about sixty votes. while General
McGowan, who, in his speeches,
eschewcd party and advised the
union of all good men in the
election of capable men to Office,
regardless Of party, pollcd nearly 800
majority over his Republican oppo.
nent.
AS We now stand, the whites
being an intelligent reading people,
being united in interest, without Or
ganization, unite from reason
and common motive, whenever
united action is likely to result in
good. They, in State elections, need
no binding organization to bring
them together, and an organ.
izatian of the Democratic party,
without accomplishing good, may re-.
suit in evil. As we now stand, we
are roady to unite with tho of
every race and party to better tho
government. Tho weakening of
party ties in both races is our surest
road to success, and We desire noth-
ing which will retard this. We are
glad to see the successes OF the Demo-
cratic party everywhere, and wo
would like TO holp item, but in the
first place we can't do this by organ.
ization, and in the second place, our
highest duty is to save ourselves.
We do not desire to labor in distant
fields until our own have been made
clear. Besides, We think our pres.
ent and past course has been ono OF
the leading causes of Democratic
success elsewhere. We are giving
them most help by keeping quiet.
The whole thug is working well
enough, and, We think, is working
better without our intermoddling.
