from the various precincts was in ses'
sion all day yesterday: Isaac II
White was elecled chairman, n ):

Secretaries. We were not admitted to
a seat on the floor but we learn thai
the meeting was a harmonious one
and the members were altogether
lovely. Mr.. T.. n. Tolbert was
promptly nominated for the Senate by
:,cclamation. but when it came tc
nominations Cor the lower House, the
work did not progress so rapidly
Twenty-one members of the conven'
ton were nominated, and each mar
nominated was of course eulogized foI
the space of about five minutes
which consumed q good portion of the
day. AS far as we are able to Learn

billiard HARPER q colored
school teacher IN the Lowndesville
section and heretofore the most intlu-

hood was converted to Democracy on
the 18th instant. He returned from
Abbeville in company with B. \. Da-
Wis and Drs. Beckham and Mosely.
when the party arrived at Lowndes-
willie, DR.. Beckham asked Harper to
make a speech, he consented and
mounted the steps Of II. Baker, and
made one Of the best speeches ever
heard from a color.d He said
that he was satisfied, that he had
heard the Radical speakers and was
disguised, that he was willing to say
that the Radical meeting was a failure,
perfect and complete. He closed by
proposing three rousing cheers for

THE WAR EXCITEMENT IN En-
RoPE.-The tone of the foreign de-
spatches continue of a threatening ma
ture. and it is held in some quarters
that a state of war between Russia and
Turkey already practically exists.
This latter, however, is merely one
way of putting he fact of the well
known material aid and active sympa-
thy given by the Russians othe strug-
Cling S%ervians,- and the further fact
that the Russian Government has for
some time been preparing for the en-
ergency Of actual wal and at present
occupies a menacing attitude towards
Turkey.

Some Of the Republican headlights
who came to the big meeting on last
Wednesday didn't like the idea Of 90
ing to Anderson by Hodges, and &c
avoid passing hat place hired vehicles
to carry them tc Donaldsville. They
were no, afraid Of being Killed al
Hodges, but then some OF the boys
about there have such an ill-manncrc'
way of ''cussing.'
WE give some dots Of what was sale
by the RAIDS on Wednesday, not tina
there was anything especially interest
ing to Democratic readers but VIZ
thought it but RICH: TO Show the people
of our county what was said by TIT
radicals since they refused the white
people q chance to hear them. q
course we have not put in all h a was
said. 1t would take q whole paper tt
do that. There is no doubt enough O
it however.
BISHOP Howe accompanied by the

The Lords Supper was also celebra'
