for Reelection.

engraving appears in this issue,
was born in Winntboro, S. c., in
1928, Of Irish parentage. His
father, the late David Aiken, BY
his uncommon energy and appli-
cation accumulated an immense
fortune, which was dissipated by
the reverses Of war.
Col. Aiken's early training was
at Mt. Zion College, under that
noble teacher J. W. Hudson, where
as, boy, BY his industry and his
manly independence, he gave
great promise Of future usefulness
He entered the South Carolina
College in 1s45, and graduated
with distinction in 1948. For
some years after graduating be
taught school in Winnsboro; loca-
ted the Fairfield Herald; spent a
year in Europe, and on his return
settled down to planting.
A few years before the war,
having married a daughter Of Mr..
Joel Smith, he moved over to
Abbeville County, where he has
resided ever since. Full of enthu-
siasm and patriotism, he entered
heartily into the grand contro'
versy of secession, and at the
first call for troops, joined the 9TH
Regiment and was appointed Ad-
jutsnt. In the first year of the
war ne made a great reputation in
Virginia, as one of the most eff
cient officers in the army.
At the reorganization of the
army he was elected Colonel of
the 9TH Regiment, and endured all
trials, successes and reverses Of a
noble South Carolina Regiment
for the period Of another year,
| until in the battle of Sharpsburg.
November, 1862, in the terrific
charges, made under Jackson,
against the right wing Of Nc
Clellan's army, Col. Aiken fell
while urging on his men in the
thickest Of the fight, shot through
the breast.
His comrades managed to re-
move his body from the field to
Shepardstown, where he lay for
months from the effects Of his
| wound. His friends hardly ex'
pected a recovery from snch a
severe wound, but the brave spirit
of the soldier sustained him under
an affection which would have
killed men of less will power.
The condition Of Col. Aiken's
health after this reverse, pre-
vented him from rejoining bis
Regiment, but his spirit was SC
restless, that, as soon as he could
move about, he got an appoint
ment on detached service, which
was commensurate with bis
strength of body, and rendered
important service IN the Ordance
department until the close Of the
| war.
Afterpeace was restored he benz
all his energies to build up hlt
shattered fortune, and as. a prl
vate citizen boldly attacked thf
band of robbers who governed
our down trodden State, whenever
an opportunity presented. On {
public occasion be denounced the
Radical Randolph in unmeasurec
language. Some weeks afterwarc
Randolph was killed, and Col
Aiken without warrant oflaw, anc
without any suspicion Of com
nlicity. was seized by the hounC

high dutios. No man in the State
has done as much to educate far
mers how to improve their farms,
to raise provisions and stock to
educate their children and to
strive for that independence which
all noble people should aspire TO.
AS an evidence of his success, the
farms Of South Carolina surpass
those Of any Southern State. Col.
Aiken is still engaged in this
noble undertaking, as the educator
Of the farmers Of South Carolina,
by contributing valuable articles
weekly, to the News and Courier.
But Col. Aiken is not a theorist
only; his individual success vindi-
Gates the truth of his teachings.
No man IN the State raises better
stock or has q finer farm. For a
number Of years he has with his
own hands sowed bis own wheat,
planted his fruit trees, and en-
gagged in practical Improvements
on his farm. There are no slug
CARDS on his premises; every
body works from the oldest to the
youngest. He impresses on all,
his own energy, and teaches by
his own example, that honest and
judicious industry will reap its re-
ward. The farmers of the State
owe him debt of gratitude they
can never repay.
Col. Aiken took an active part
in the glorions campaign of 1876,
and was rewarded for his labors
by election to Congress, from the
3rd Congressional District. Al
ready he has made a great name
in Congress for his untiring in
dustry, and his watchfnl care OF
his constituency. He promptly
attends TO. all business entrusted
to him, and labors and tolls for
the State and the whole South.
He recognizes the fact, that he is
but servant Of the people, and
he is too conscientious to eat idle
| bread. If earnest attention to bis
duties, kind and considerate con-
duct to his constituents, firm re.
lance on the constitution, and a
high intelligence will secure a good
and honorable name in Congress,
Col. Aiken in q short while will
attain it. The State in honoring
! him will honor itself.

Concerning the Returning Board Case
Application to Bring the Suit into
the United States Circuit Court,
IN O. Picayune.]


Messrs. Cullom and Castellanos and
Mr.. John Ray, of counsel for ex-Gov.
Wells, Gen. Anderson, Casanave and
Kenner, members of the Returning
Board, yesterday presented petition
to the Superior Criminal Court, pray
ing for a removal of the case against
the latter to the United States Re-
vised Statutes, on the ground pin.
cipally that the law authorizing the
drawing Of jurjes in and for the par
ish of Orleans in criminal cases op-
perates injustice to the accused, mas.
much as it places 10 the hands of the
officers authorized by the law to draw
such juries as they may see proper,
and that in this instance out Of the
whole renire there is not colored
man for the further reason that by
virtue of the existence of great pub.
lie prejudice in the minds Of the white
population of this city the officers
have, Willingly or uuwittingly, drawn
such a jury as are believed to be i'm.
pressed by this prejudice.
Judge Whitaker ordered the ap-
plication to be fled and fixed the case
for argument at 10 A. NJ, to day.

mode of conducting the State affairs.
Monroe Observer.
The first few days Of the session of
the legislature have already demon.
Strated tue necessity of constitu.
tional convention. No one has vet
been found, either in or ont of tho
Democratic party, that VIC have heard
Of, who will admit that the present
Legislature should not change tie con.
ttltnti"n in some way or other. Even
the best informed RADICALS believe,
as Mr.. Blackburn, q member of the
last convention, has stated. that the
constitution of 1865 was intended to
te only tempory expedient. Aud
the thing so stinks in the nostrils of
every Democrat and Conservative in
the State that mono would dare vote
to continue it any longer over an un-
willing people.
But too many members of the leg
islature think that the instrument can
DO reformed by a species Of pretty
qnackery, without selling hold Of the
surgeons knife and cutting it an
from head to foot. Mr.. Hahn comes
forward with his idea of a constitu-
tl"nai commission, which was once
tried unsuccessfully in the State of
New York. Other members come
forward with this, that and the other
amendment to be submitted to the
popular. This latter plan is tile fl.
voritc one with the opponents of a
convention. But we predict that it

We therefore venture the predic.
ton that, after a months fruitless
discussion, the members themselves
will become satisfied that all this

vote to call a convention. In the
