A committee on platform with Gen. j.

It is customary for political parties in convention
assembled to restate the principles upon which they
were founded, by which they have been preserved
and for which they claim themselves entitled to flu

The Republicans Of the State Of Minnesota reaf-
firm their devotion to the great principles of equal

THE MINNEAPOLIS Exposition.

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. AT o'clock q.
m, the grounds were astir with the hundreds of
attendants and employees of the different de-
partments, and all was life and activity. Even
at that early hour. Drove after drove of
stock, ranging in size and Importance from
the mammoth horse Of pure Norman blood to
the tiny Berkshire pig, whose porkish eye had
just opened upon the vanities Of this sublun-
airy sphere, came pouring into the enclosure
and seeking each it's proper location. The
grounds, though not the largest, are now the
most complete and perfect in the State. The
tracks, in perfect order-level as a barn floor
and smooth as the surface of mirror. The
stables and sheds are nearly all occupied
(there being 1.aO0in all, for horses and cattle)
and still there is demand for "more room I"
1t is safe to say that the management could
have added one-third more attractions to the
display of stock, if they could have agreed to
furnish the room. When one looks over The
full and complete display of blooded animals,
the mooted problem sis the Northwest good
forstock-ralsing might be considered SET
tied.
MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 3There was but
little stir until about 10 o'clock A. NJ, when
the vast multitude surged forward towards
the grounds, utilizing every possible means
of conveyance street cars, railway cars, ON
nibusses, hacks, buggies. carriages, horses,
mules, saw-horses- and, III short, every pos
sible movable animal and vehicle which
could be hired, owned, rented, stolen or i'm.
provjsed for the occasion. And even then
thousands sought the grounds upon the
means of locomotion with which nature had
provided them. At eleven o'clock
the various departments were tecming with
the hurrying, jostling crowds of super-heat.d
humanity. The great intellectual card Of the

TOWNVILLE.

AT about nine o'clock last Wednesday
night the citizens of this place were sudden
" thrown into considerable excitement by
the rapid succession of some ten or twelve
pistol shots proceeding from the direction
Of a colored mans house in the edge of town
where "niggcr breakdown" or "shin-dig"
was in progress. AS soon as some gentlemen
could bestir themselves q colo-ed man was
discovered in full flight for the main street,
being closely pursued by mob of his own
color, shouting "catch him." kill him."
"shoot the id rascal" and much SINH
lar language. Before many Of the citizens
could get to the scene the colored man had
taken refuge in the house of Mr.. Gaines, for
whom he had worked in the early part Of
this year. He had barely passed the gate
and reached the piazza before the mob had
clambered upon the yard fence and threat
ened to go in and take him out forcibly and
kill him. 1t was with difficulty that Mr..
Gaines and some gentlemen who had been
attracted thither could prevent them from
further attempting to carry out their threat.
The mob then declared they would follow
their would-be victim to where he lives
about mile out of town--and there kill
him before the night wore away; but they
were finally induced to disperse and go
away, and Mr.. Gaines protected their in
tended victim the remainder of the night.
The colored man, John Williams by name,
who had been thus violently set upon, is an
avowed Democrat, of an ominently peacea-
BILE disposition but the fact of his political
preferences renders him, as we'll as some
other colored men of this community who
have the boldness to express their determi-
nation to vote with the Democrats, ex-
tremely obnoxious to those of their color
who blindly persist in adhering to Radical
ism. Williams had been cordially invited
to bo at the frolic, but the real purpose in
the invitation is clearly shown by the
sequel. The other negroes charged Will
liams with raising the difficulty and with
firing first, but the evidence adduced at the
preliminary examination held by Justice
w. F. NJ. FAINT refutcs this. Williams is
known to be inoffensive, while the Others
are known everywhere to be the worst kind
of characters excepting one of them, per-
haps. Williams procured warrants for the
arrest of six Of the party that attacked him,
and they were all promptly brought before
Justice FAINT, who held the examination as
above stated. In default of bail the six-
Andy Lewis, Dock Williams Vernon Mack,
Norris Edwards, Numer Campbell and Jim
Edwards-were committed to Anderson
Jail on Friday to await for their investiga-
ton. The community is quiet. The oc-
currence is regretted by the whites, though
they had no part in it. 1t is clearly o case
of political persecution, and is no doubt the
outgrowth of Parkers teachings. The final
result will doubtless teach the negroes the
egitimate reward of all such dastardly at
tempts. Our VIyE.

ANDERsoN's BUSINESS HOUSES.

The increased trade of Anderson during
the past few weeks has induced us to call
the attention of our readers to the firms
who advertise in the IyrELLIoENcER, and by
reference to these columns the general pub
lie will find where they can be supplied
with the best of articles in all of the differ
ent lines Of trade. We have in Anderson q
number of large, reliable and progressive
business houses, who are worthy of the
confidence and patronage of the public
from far and near, so that in beginning this
sketch we scarcely know where to begin.
On the southern corner of Granite Row the
firm of
BLECKLEY, BROWN & CO.,
the well known dry goods, grocery and
hardware merchants, have their large and
carefully selected stock of goods which they
are selling at remarkably low prices. Tho
members Of this firm are experienced mer-
chants, who give close attention to business,
and endeavor by all means within their
power to suit the wants of their customers,
both in the prices of their goods and in the
quality and variety of the articles which
they keep on hand. If you want anything
to eat or wear, or for agricultural or house
hold purposes, you will be very apt to be
pleased with this house. Next We come to
MR.. A. LESSER,
who does o classified business, taking dry
goods as his special line. Though young
merchant, he keeps large and we'll selected
stock of goods, and strives to please all who
trade with him. Mr.. Lesser is an accom-
modating and polite merchant, so that his
customers may rely upon courteous treat
mcnt, good articles and low prices. He
has only been in business by himself about
six months, but was raised merchant, and
understands his business. He has already
built up large trade. Going on up Granite
Row we como to the old and reliable firm
of
A. u. TOWERS & CO.,
the senior member OF wliic;! has been known
Us an upright and excellent business man
in Anderson for more than twenty-five year,,
and the junior, Mr.. ]. w. Todd, has proven
himself worthy to be associated in this
firm. They keep full assortment of dry

OF the best quality of goods, and are sold at
prices to suit the times. If you wish u car
pet, they have patent exhibitor, with o
largo number of samples, which they can
display and sell to the advantage of their
customers. They have an extensive trade,
and are highly esteemed by their customers.
Next we come to the firm Of
wILHITE & WILLIAMS,
who keep one of the fine drug stores of
which the town of Anderson boasts. In it
will be found everything usually kept in
first class drug stores, and all prescriptions
are prepared by experienced and intelligent
druggists. They also keep chemicals for
preparing fertilizers, &C., together with q
large assortment of toilet and fancy articles,
which are offered at the most reasonable
prices. Next we come to the store of
WILSON & REED,
where we find large stock of family gro
ceries and heavy dry goods, crockeryware,
hardware, &c. These gentlemen have been
in business in Anderson for ten years, dur
ing which time they have established q
reputation for fair dealing and judgment in
business equal to any house III Anderson.
Their goods are standard, and their prices
suit the times, in consequence Of which they
do lire business.
AS our space this week is limited, we can
not conclude this sketch, but will do so in
the next issue of our paper. In the mean.
time, we bespeak for our other advertisers
who have not been mentioned liberal pat
ronage from the public. Read our adrer-
tisemcnts, and be informed as to who are
the livO and prosperous business men Of
