The Columbia Register, in u recent issue,
says: ut vGs decided hit made by Gov.
Hampton In his speech at Anderson when
he told the people Of South Carolina to pick
out their best men and send them to the
Legisiatnre-make them 80 into the ser
vice. He was giving advice which has
since fouIsd lodgment In every nook and
corner of The State. And if we read the
signs of the times afight, tlfe people are
preparing to act upon the suggestions by
demanding the services Of the very best
men who are not now In of6c,. II is no
time for selecting Legislators with reference
to erpedieacy, lccal;ty or occupation" The
Italics are my own.
In my Judgment, then, It is folly to select
members OF the Legislature BY reason OF
their occupation or their residence, and far
more damaging to choose them "for their
availhtiiity on the grounds Of expediency.
1t is the best men TINT ar wanted to deal
with the intricate questions before the next

ted TO the work before them, because Of
their training, industry and devotion to the
State. Men of brains and Of character, with
the will and determination to do what is
right, regardless Of the effect II will have
upon their popularity" The Winnsboro
Fc'cs and Herald, taking up the theme,
says: ut is extremely important that each
county ahould send her best men to repre-.
sent her. This is the advice given by Gov.
Hampton, and it would be uncommonly
good advice by whomsoever given. in
choosing representatives to consult for tho
good Of the State people sho;,.da should lay aside as;itas
personal projudices and vote for those who
can do the most good"
Gen. MCGOWAN, responding in speech to
o serenading party at Anderson on the 10th,
said: "When the PROPER time comes for your
primary election, go out and nominate your
bgEA dnd most suitable men for Office,
especially for the Legislature without
reference to whether they want 1t or not.
Do not be governed by who is most anxious
or who has electioneered most. Select them
because they ara the proper men-not be-
cause they want to serve; net because You
wish to honor them, but because you wish
to take care Of yourselves All this Is
most excellent advice, words wisely spoken p;
and it becomes the people of Anderson, who
delight to be called the "Banner Countys
in all matters Of progress, to decide whether
they will heed the advice and elect their
best and naost suitable men, OF whether we
will elect those most anxious for Office and
who electioneer the most. We shall see.

Soon after crossing the "Keowee" we no.
,ticed that on the sound of our horses foot
steps. reaching any little hamlet, heads
would be cautiously poked out of the doors
OF tuuiid TIC corners Of buildings, followed
by seemingly hurried consultation, and
the men would either become invisible, or
their feeting forms would be seen making
for the woods on the mountain sides. This
was almost Invariably the case on nearing
and crossing the North Carolina line. At
LAST We reached vicinity where we were
wellknown, and where resided several when
we knew were not engaged in Illicit whiskey
making, and on enquiring the cause of such
conduct we were told that all in the monp.
tains were afraid Of the Revenue officers. as
it mattered not whether innocent or guilty,
THAT they were sure of being ill-treated, and
would be compelled to act as guides or re-
ceive o round of curses and abuse hard to
bear, besides risking their lives IL willing to
be guides.
from all accounts the killing of Imdd was
o most brutal and uncalled-fo act. as all in
his neighborhood are confident the officers
fired first, and shot him in cold blood.
They oil deplore the present state of affairs,
but at the same time it is easily perceived
that there iS o spirit of depreciation being
felt that may, snotsoothed, tend to serious
consequences. not only to the mountain
people, but the high.handed Revenue
officials. Surely, Collector Brayton can
use some discretion as to the sort of per-
sons he employs to protect the Revenue.
And If he can only induce the scum and
low down whites to execute his orders, he
can certainly put them under the command
OF some officer who will restrain their thirst
for blood aud propensities for abusing old

theirs when on raid. Exc
