suicidal policy. There has already set in
reaction in the minds of the peo-
pie of the North against this great
crimo against nature and the laws
of good government. As an evidence
Of it, President Grant has sent in mes
sag. to Congress, favoring q system of
qualified suffrage TO take effect in the
year A. D. 1890. 1t is the best thing he
has done since he has been in power and
is intended to reach this national evil
God grant that it NAV do so, before the
poison converts the body polite into
purifying and dying monster
But in leaving the calamities that affect
the National Government, | must consider
the misfor,unes that now beset our State.
Little did l ever dream that should
see the proud escutcheon of this State
dragged in the dirt as it has been for the
last eight years, under the triumphal
chariots Of the carpet-bagger, negro and
scalawag; the logical results of-the false
legislation of the Republican party.
This State is composed of gallant men,
and glorious women, the splendid types
Of the Cavalier and Huguenot. in whose
bosoms glow, "that chastity of honor,
which feels stain like a wound" >, l had
hoped that for each wrong and insult
given tSher honorelname, that the-srord
Of an avenging Nemesis. would have
leaped from the scabbard OF a thousand
of her sons. But their spirit Of manhood
and heroic enterprise has been slumbering
like Sampson shorn of bis locks.
see to-day that the fires of patriotism
have been rekindled, and are burning
upon her altars. That brave sons are
rallying around her. from the mountains
to the seaboard, and that they will rescue
her from the degrading supremacy 3f the
ignorant and the corrupt rule of the car
pet-bagger.
Daring the long years that misru!e has
thrown its shadow over our State, our
glorious old Palmetto, which symbolizes
our historic past, has been kept from with
ering and dying by the tears of our beau
tiful women In the glorious future,
should it become necessary, it will be
watered by the blood of the patriotic sons
Of South Carolina.
l feel confident that The spirit that has
inscribed Resurganaus' upon her flag,
will cause the "Prostrate State" to arise
and glitter among the constellation Of
States, like the morning star, full Of hope,
full of splender, and full Of Joy and hap
piness forever.

The State Fair in Columbia.

The opening OF our annual State Fair
in Columbia has been postponed from
the 10th to the Dist of \ ,vcnlber. Very
unusual efforts are being nlado TO rem
der this Exhibition Il grand success; and
the people of Edgefeld, notwithstand-
ing the exciting and engrossing political
canvass, should undoubtedly take an
interest in the matter, and contribute,
by their presence, and by specimens of
their products and their industry, to the
success Of the undertaking.

On Saturday last, Mr.. McKinlay, the
popular apd impartial correspondent of
the Charleston Meas Dc Courier, was in
our midst, for the purpose Of reporting
the days doings. His excellent report,
in the shape Of telegraphic dispatch to
the NcwS d; Courier, we publish in an
other column. 1t is headed "Army in
Edgefeld." Mr.. McIlinlay also gives
Us very important information concern
ing the movements and sayings Of Gen
Ringer, the Federal Commander OF tie
Department OF the South.
To this report Wa have but little to
add. In fact as we attended closely upon
tne Radical meeting in the Academy
grove, we were eye witness to but little
that transpired among our compatriots
upon the public square. At this meet
ing, Lawrence Cain presided. The four
speakers were Smalls, the co!ored Con-
gresham: Fillehrown, white carpet
basger, who is Comptroller General
Dunn's chief clerk; Brayton, another
white carpe.- dagger, resident in Aiken,
and Radical candidate for Solicitor in
this judicial circuit; and Hayne, the
colored Secretary of State, who is also
the present nominee for that Office.
Smalls is a dark brown, corpulent negro,
OF excellent countenance, who spoke
strongly in behalf of his party, but re-
spectfully and without bitterness. File
brown proved to be simply Il most in
sufierable old twaddler, who confused
and bored the negroes beyond measure.
Eraytou is Gne-lcels iis.-s i1:an who is
evidently very shrewd demagogne. He
is ready and good speaker, and on
this occasion was moderate aud cautious.
Hayne, born and bred in South Carolina,
has but little negro blood in him, and is
still quite young. lie is almost perfect
ly white, and, like smalis, is corpulent
and OF excellent countenarce. He is in
teliigent and humorous. And, like
Smalls again, his speech was strongly
partisan, but without any particular ac-
rimony. The two colored speakers-as
is always the case-struck rs as being far
more honest and kindly than the two
whites. For malevolence and misrepre-
sentation always commend us to white
carpet Dagger.
The crowd of negroes in attendance
was large; hut still small-very small
compared to the crowds that came out
on such occasions two or three years
back. And they behaved themselves
well.
Extremely few whites were present at
this meeting During Haynes speech,
he made some allusion to Gen. Butler,
which, although respectful in fact COM
plimentary, admitted of coloring that
Gen. Butler, who was standing near by,
wished 10 remove. Consequently the
General requested to be heard for few
minutes, which request was declined, in
very respectful terms, by the Chairman.
During. the whole course of the speak
ing, the marshals and detecives-an ex-
tremely nasty-looking set of fellows
Sunk to and fro around the outskirts Of
the crowd, but found no work for their
manly hands.
The meeting adjourned about 3 O'Clock
and before sun set both whites and blacks
had quietly departed from our town.

The Negro Nominating conventio

Inc negro dominating Convention.
The County Nominating Convention
of the Radical party met in our Court
House on Thursday morning last, and,
after boisterous, disorganized, r.dder-
less, ridiculous session of three days,
adjourned on Saturday. having accom-
-ptished nothing but the nomination of
Cain for the Senate. As regards the rest
of the nominations they could in no
wise agree, and they finally concluded
to leave it to their Executive Committee
to appoint the remainder of the ticket.
The said Committee. if we mistake not,
is in orr town to-day, Tuesday,
striving TO accomplish this business.
The party is evidently much divided and
demoralized. McDevitt is in jail--where
he ought to remain for the rest OF his
natural life-and they have no leader.
