Editorial Review.


The Alabama Constitutional Con-
ventiop met September 9th. Gen.
L. ?. Walker, the first secretary Of
of the Confederate States, was chosen
president by acclamation, Republicans
and Democrats all voting for him.
I A correspondent to the Ne'os and
! Courier writes from Bamberg: "Sixty
bales of new cotton were received at
| this place on the 4th instant. The
largest portion of the crop is now
open. Owing to the drought, not
over a half crop will be made in this
J vicinity
7 The disturbances in Mississippi are
according to latest accounts all quieted
| down. It is not known positively how
| many have been killed, but the reports
| are that a large number Of negroes
we're killed and wounded, also a num-
Der of whites. The sheriff of Kinds
County says that peace prevails.
The Greenville NeUs says: The
contract was closed yesterday with the
| Air Line railroad for the transpcrta-
tion of 100 car loads of machinery
| for the Camperdown factory from
Lynn, Mass. Three cheers for Camper
down factory! Squire McBee is push
ing the completion of the mammoth
new building.
The suggestion of the editor Of
the Enterprise and Mountaineer that
the President of the State Press Asso-
| citation, Col. Hoyt, call that honorable
body together in extra session on the
occasion of the Greenville County
Agricultural Society Fair, on the goth
of October, is very pleasant one. Poor
devils, they need rest and some kind
attention.
An example worthy Of imitation is
afforded by the following: SAT a
recent meeting of the republican club
of Spartanburg, it was unanimously
resolved to make no nominations for
the municipal Offices to be filed at the
ensuing election, but to vote solidly
any ticket: by whomsoever nominated,
the members of which pledge them
selves not to license any bar-room
within the corporate limits of Spar
tanburg during their term of Office.
The Georgetown Times Of the I'd
instant says: 'sThe rice harvest has
fairly commenced, and in a week will
be general, except, perhaps, high up
the Peedee, where the water may for
few days interfere with the plans Of
the planters. The harvest has opened
propitiously, as the weather is very
fine. At the same time myriads of
rice birds are making their appearance,
which will materially lessen the crop.
No one except a sufferer can possibly
estimate the damage which they do in
their hasty but destructive visits to
our rice fields"
President D. R. Duncan, of the
Spartanburg and Asheville Railroad,
says the Spartan, has just returned
from a trip to Knoxville, Tennessee,
made in the interest of the road. He
brings good news from Tennessee, and
says the people of Knoxville, and
especially the owners of the East Ten
nessee, Virginia and Georgia Railroad,
are alive to their interests, and willing
to lend their aid and assistance in the
completion of the Spartanburg Road.
This will prove interesting to the
friends Of this important project, and
we hope at no distant day to see
road completed which will prove Of
general advantage to the State.
