The Radicals in making no nomlna-
tons for Governor or State officers
hope to lull our people into security
and capture the Legislature and a
majority of Ccngressmen. In tho
language OF Governor Hampton, it is
better for the people that they eloct a
majority of the Legislature than it is
to elect the Governor. It is almost
as important to elect q majority of
Congrcssmen, for the next Presiden-
tial election may be thrown into the
lower House of Congress and q ma
jority of the delegation vote for the
State.

Base Ball.

DEAR SENTINEL: Wo had a couple
of lively match games of base baltin
our little town, and as "Shanks" said
nothing Of our game last week, I
thought that I would send up the
score of the two games to let our

On last Thursday week, Central
Club played with Pendleton Club, in
which, Central came off completely
victorious, making score of 81 to IA.
See score below. -..r
On Saturday tho 10th, wo had an
other game with tho Walhalla Club,
in which Central again came off cons
pletely victorious. There were 9 in
nings, and the Centrals made 81 runs
apd % outs. Tho Walhallas made Is
runs and 27 outs. 49,. .s.
If Central continues in such good
playing, she will certainly "got her
namo up" She has beaten every
club that sho has played with.
On Friday, the 23d, Central pro,
poses TO 60 to Anderson, to play with
the Anderson Club
The Central Club is fast improving
in playing, and we certainly wish

Central Items.

DEAR SENTINEL-Ye es tcrday, 18th,
was jolly day in Central, cxpccta~
ton had been on "tip toe" for many
days previous, and when the day sure
enough camc round, it was haIcd
with JOY. Farley in the morning the
people began to pour in from all di~
rectiohs, SO that by 10 o'clock, our
little bnrg was all in big stir about.
True, the crowd was not very'largc
ono, yet. it was quite q novel ono,
being composed mostly of candidates,
in fact candidates came in 80 rapidly
at one time, that 1 began to fear there
would not be flea apiece, however I
believe all were supplied at last
About II o'clock the multitude re-
paired to the grove North of Eaton
street, where suitable stand had
been previously erected for the bene-
fit of candidates who wished to stump
ticate.
Maj. ID. f. Rradley was the first
speaker, and occupied the stand moro
than an hour, his remarks were lis
tened to with marked attention, and
was delivered in that candid unassum.
ing style that always carries conviction
Mr Bradley was interrupted several
times during his discourse by the
"Parson," who richly deserves to have
Ii feas in each of his socks for thir-
teen days, as a punishment for his
impudence.
DIR. Fields was next on the rostrum,
aud consumed about an equal length
OF time with the first speaker. His
remarks wero principally confined to
Legislative economy, and was received
with applause from his friends
DR.. Fields was not interrupted during
his discourse.
But | cannot give you the whole
proceedings in detail, suffice it to say,
every one 'stumped' that had mind to
and every thing passed off pleasantly
and harmoniously. Late in the even
ing, however, there was unmisfakable
signs that many who loved the "arl
dent had been fully supplied, but
taking everything into consideration,
our boys behaved very well, and who
ever happens to be successful in the
forthcoming contest for tho Senate
and lower II onse of the Legislature,
cannet fail to feel proud of the noble
and honest constituency they will re-
present. SHANKs.

The Now York Times reports Cons
gresham Rainey az saying that "the
upEcoantry people of South Carolina
are even moro ignorant and much
moro depraved than the negroes whom
they affect to regard with 50 much
contempt. Phoir one desire is to get
enough coarse food to eat and enough
corn whiskoy to drink. Thei, habi~
tations are in most cases broken down
log cabins, and all their surroundings
filthy and squalid in the extreme. In
such community it is, Of course, not
to be wondered at that illicit distnlers
are shielded against the law, and the
leaders of, Hamburg massacres and
Edgefeld riots regarded as heroes.''
This is what a mullatto misrcpro.
sentative in Congress thinks of the
white people of tho up>country. II
they had been Republicans Mr.. Rainey
would dIevidentIy have thought them
tho most enlightened and cultivated
people in the State. But thoy, by
their votes in '76, seNled tho fate OF
RadicaIism in South Carolina, and
made it impossible for Rainey to mis-
represent the State any Iongor Tbis
is the secret Of his animus towards the
people of tho up~conntry, and when
MIR. Richardson takes The seat he now
disgraces we win, pcrhaps, hear no
more. OF Mr.. Rainey in nSouth Carolina.

gave us call on last Monday morn>
ing. Mr.. McFall informs us that the
route now being surveyed will pass
within three-quarters of a mile of this
place, and that it is pronounced by
Capt. Kirk, the chief engineer, en-
tirely practicable. Capt. Kirk thinks
tho grading can be done with convict
labor at cost of six or eight hundred
dollars per mile. The party expects,
with favorable weather, to reach Hol-
ly Springs Church, near the foot Of
the mountains, by to night (Thurs>
day. On this route, whom it reaches
Holly Springs will be 200 feet higher
than tho ground at tho church, and if
this advantage can be hold, Sassafras
Gap can, it is thought, be passed with
out much trouble. II is the intention
of Capt. Kirk to survey Sassafras Gap
and Reedy Cove Gap and ascertain
which passage over the mountains will
be most practable. Both surveys will
be made by next Saturday night
This road can and will be built. =
