About this time his wife yells out from

gathers everything up in bunch and

grab them, in savage handfuls, tearing

in a sort Of abstract way, as if address

1876-ratify the nominations made
by that convention for State and
Federal officers-and pledge to the
nominees our united and earnest sup.
port.
8. Resolved, That we deprecate all
violence in the approaching political
contest -denounce all attempts, by
whomseevcr made, to bring about
collisions pledge ourselves to use NIL
proper efforts to prevent them-to
put down all designing disturbors Of
the public peace, and secure the quiet
and peaceful use of tho election fran
chise by all our citizens, of every
class.
4. Reso'red, That in the grand effort
for reform which the Democratic
party is now making, we deem it the
duty of all good citizens, without &c
gard to race, to Unite against our
common enemy, and work together,
earnestly and faithfully, for success;
and we pledge to our colored fellow
citizens who are now in our ranks, or
who may hereafter unite with us in
this glorious cause, protection against
all violence and oppression from
whatsoever quarter it may come.
at the conclusion of the foregoing
resolutions, Samuel Dibble. Esq, with
the air OF lawyer who knew his
jury, stepped forward and seconded
them in manner that elected ap.
plause.
Now came the set speeches. Gener-'
al Kennedy was the first speaker
who made dig at our sido. He
was very coquettish in the beginning,
but after he got warmed up, we
noticed that he was not halt rs tender
rs We took him to be. He punched
arc und promiscuously and didn't have
q single compliment for the Ems"
His speech was straightout.
Mr.. H. S. Thompson followed. He
was more easy going, and we liked
him better.
And after him came Hon. M. P.
O'Ccnner. Well! bis reputation rs an
orator is world wide, and as we do not
desire to do an injustice even to
Democrat, we will pass by him by
saying that his speech was replete
with els quence-only it was on the
other side.
A colored Democrat named
Hutchins spoke next.
L. S. Yuurmans, Esq, concluded.
He is also known, aud it is not n eces.
sarY for US to say that he also did
well-but on the other side.
Upon the whole Of it, the meeting
was rather an eenthuseastic rally of
Democrats, and rs it has always been
the desire ofthe editor of this paper
to do tho opposition justice, we do
not hesitate to say that Captain Jim
made d first-rate showing with his
clubs.
Quiet and order reigned from early
morn tell dewy eve. Remarkable,

SECOND DAYS PROCEEDINGS.

SECOND DAYS PROCEEDINGS.
The Convention met again We'd
1,csday September 18th at 10 a. M.
and shortly after adjourned to 8 p. m.
to give more time to the committee on
credentials. Upon re-assembling in
the afternoon permanent organiza
ton was effected by electing Robert
6malls Chairman. Committees on
platform and rules were here appoint
ed.
Senator J. J. Patterson was then
called on. Some little excitement
prevailed, as it WINS fully expected
that he would make an attack on
Governor Chamberlain: hut to the
surprise ofmany it was demonstrated
that the hatchet had been buried du-
ring the night, and Patterson endors-
ed Chamberlain and pledged his sup
port 10 him and the whole ticket
whatever it might DO. He said that
President Grant had his eye on
South Carolina, and intended to take
care of her, and he (Patterson) would
warrant that Grant would bring the
strong arm of the United State Gov
ernment to support and keep the Re-
publican party in power. He was
not afraid of armed Democrats, and
he would warn these FIRE caters that
Albany Penitentiary is big enough

them as soon as the election was over.
So far rs his reported hostility 10
Governor Chamberlain was concern
ed he said he had only fallen out
with him because tho Democrats
were praising him too much. He
got suspicious of him, but was per-
fectly satisfied that he had cast of his
new-made friends now, and he would
accordingly support him. He next
spoke of the report Of his having
patched up friendship with Cham
berlain on a compromise in which
the repudiated conversion bonds fig.
ured conspicuously. He confidently
asserted that the Republican party
will be in power in South Carolina
for ten years longer, and would have
Hayes and Wheeler to take care Of
them. He said the whipping pos,
would be cha ngcd to the school.
house, and colorcd men would soon
be equal in every way to the white
people Of the State. They would be
too smart for the Democrats to fool
them as they wcrc trying to do, Geor-
gin was M example of State where
the negroes had no show, had no

THIRD DAYS PROCEEDINGS.
On Thursday the Convention re.

Thos. Hamilton nominated d. II.

Green Of Beaufort nominated T. G.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER is, 1876.
The Democratic Meeting.

week ago, the Democrats commenced
to make their appearance from MI
sides. Most of them were here by 8
o'clock A. NJ, and exhibited the
utmost good feeling and determine
tion. The boys on "thc other side"
are not Modocs, and only mean to
beat the Republicans if they can.
Because q man is Democrat we do
not regard him as monster, to be
summed both night and day. Some
of those fellows are mild even TO
cffeminacy, and would not hurt
Republican for the world. They are
simply "the OUTS" and now they
want to be "tho ms" Only this and
nothing more.
The procession formed aud met the
speakers Mt tho depot, where the
Orangeburg brass Band enlivened the
crowd with inspiring strains of music.
(We forget now whether they played
any of the Hayes and Wheeler
Campaign songs or not; we think not,
though.) Gen. Kennedy, Hon. NJ. 2.
O'Ccner, and great many other
speakers presented Themselves, and
were driven to the stand in the grove
near Capt. Rowc's where the speaking
took place.
Captain Jas. f. Izlar, the courte-
GUS and gentlemanly chairman Of the
Democratic party of the County,
called the vast concourse together in
q few timely and appropriate
remarks.
The meeting went into perman.
ent organization upon proposition
from Mr. S. r. Mellichamp as fol
lows:

with good naturcd smile on hHi face !
Captain Izlar again "rose to ex plain"
and said that Malcolm l. Brewnine,
Esq, would present q set of resolu-
aions which should claim every
Democrats attention.
That gentleman, after stroking his
mustaches nn1 feeling the platform
that it was not "riekety," arose and
pretaccd the following resolutions
with few eloquent remarks:
