sent to Cincinnati as one 81 tle delegates Of
the Repuoli an party. and that he will te the
nominee II that y rty for Governor. The South
Carolina Legislature took arccess on March y 70
reasonable Ami 10. The State Convention meets
on April H. the day afterward. The LEGISLATORS are
all provided Win free ls>es over the railroads.,
and going home to attend the county cunven
tons will not cost them ANYTHING. while II Will
enable them to return AS memhefs Of the con
ventlon without any extra exoense. ~ IA likely,
therefore, that the lead Of Cllleton county will
be followed, aud the legislator he chosen a.
delegates.
