THE MASS MEETING At HosEA PATH.

The next grand demonstration of the An
derson Democracy will take place at Honea
Path on the 10th of September, and our
friends in that vicinity are making extensive
preparations for the meeting. The citizens
of Anderson, Abbeville, Greenville and
Laurens are expected to unite on this occs-
sion, and the attendance will likely prove
nearly equal to the mammoth demonstra-
ton at this place. Among the gentlemen
who were invited to address the meeting,
we are informed that Gen. Hampton, Hon.
w. D. Simpson, Gen. MCGOWAN, Gen. 81. C.
Butler, Col D. Wyatt Aiken, James s.
Cothran, James L. Orr and ]. A. Hoyt have
signifed their willingness and intention to
be present. A rousing time may confident
ly be expected, and We are authorized to
state that, ifone day is not sufficient to get
through the work, the Honea Path Demo-
Gratis are willing to protract the meeting.

We learn that there is determined effort
being made in the Rock Mills township to
intiniidste colored Democrats. This must
bestopped, and if our colored people do not
cease interfering with others who choose to
be Democrats, they may expect trouble in
this County. They shall not intimidate our
colored Democrats. We would advise our
citizens to arrest, upon peace warrant, any
man who threatens or abuses colored
Democrat, or makes threats against our
white people. If they are arrested upon q
peace warrant they will have to give securi-
ty for good behavior, and we imagine that
no Democrat in this County will go secu-
rity for any one who tries to intin,idate a
colored man who wishes to exercise his
right to vote Democratic ticket. We
have promised to protect all Democratic
coTored men, and must doso at any cost.

The Columbia Register in its account of
the Ydton meeting made the following mis-
take:
Colonel W..D. Simpson, the Democratic
nominee for Lieutenant Governor, led off in
speech worthy of himself and the occasion.
He discussed the issues of the time with
equal skill and eloquence, making decided
ly favorable. impression for resofute and de-
termined action in overthrowing the party
of oppression and corruption in the State
Colonel Simpson has the voice, manner,
brain, learning and other gifts, natural and
acquired, which give him easy sway over
any audience that he. addresses.
It was R. W. Simpson, Esq, candidate
forthe House of Representatives from this
County, and not the nominee for Lieutenant
Governor, who made this speech. The
Registers remarks about the speech are all
right, but it ascribed it to the wrong man.

The Grand Secret Of Beauty

Is health. The secret of health is the power
to eat, digest and assimilate q proper guam
tity of wholesome, nutritious food. This
can never be done when the liver does not
act its part. 1t is the great driving wheel in
the mechanism of man, and when it is out
of order, the whole organization becomes
deranged, and fever, dyspepsia, sick head
ache, constipation, jaundice, bilious colo,
kidney disease and general debility ensues.
To restore the normal functions of the liver
and impart that beauty, which always at
tend healthy, robust constitution. DR.
TUTT's VEGETABLE Liver PILLS are conscien-
tiously recommended. They are designed
solely for the disordered liver and the dis
ease which it produces. They are not
cure-all, but in the cases mentioned they
rarely ever fail to effect cure.

ton, for it prevents his hands from becom.
ing acquainted with the political questions
upon which they are to vote. We will in
quire into this matter, and make known
the name of the individual next week, il
the facts as stated to us prove correct.
There was meeting of colored people at
Mount Sinai Church on last Saturday night
we are informed, and it was held in the
dark. No one knows the object of this
meeting, but it was not likely to be for any
good purpose when held under these cir
cumstances. We warn our colored people
not to let their leaders induce them to at
tend such meetings in future, for it will be
sure to bring trouble upon those who are
duped into going to them. The white peo-
pie are sure to find out about them, and
they do not intend to afford protection or
assistance to any colored man who frequents
secret political gatherings. All our Demo-
cratic meetings are held at regular place,
and at regularly appointed times. If the
republicans want to meet they should do
likewise. If they do not, they must take
the consequences.
Samuel Johnson, the colored Jury Com
missioner of Anderson County, appointed
by Governor Chamberlain at the instance
of Senator Cochran, returned his property
for taxation this year, under the regular
oath, at $294, real and personal; and for the
purpose of bailing James Miles, who is
charged with throwing rock into the Dem
ocratic torch-light procession, he made oath
before Trial Justice w. s. Brown that he is
worth $3.50 over all homestead exemptions
and debts, which makes him worth at least
$l,700. These two oaths are totally incon-
sistent, and it seems to us that this man is a
good specimen of republican officials in this
State. We invite the attention of the Dem
ocratic Executive Committee to these facts.

GEN. JOHN B. GORDON.

The able and eloquent Senator from Geor-
gia was prevented from attending the ratifi-
cation meeting in Anderson on Saturday
last, in consequences of being prostrated by
a severe attack of sickness on his return
from Washington, which untitled him for
labor during the past week or ten days. He
expresses his intention, however, of taking
part in theicampign in South Carolina, in
which his heart is deeply enlisted. No man
from outside the limits Of our State will
receive more cordial and enthusiastic vel
come from our people, and there is no one
in whose judgment we would sooner confde
upon the issues and topics now before the
country. Wherever Gen. Gordon may ap-
pear before an audience in South Carolina,
there awaits him q generous and whole
souled welcome, not only for his gallant
services on the field of battle, but for his
triumphs in the arena of debate on the floor
of the United States Senate.
