Our Local Democracy.

Some little confusion exists in the
ranks of our local Democracy, the same
being caused no doubt by the organlza'
tion of other clubs from the membership
of the Camden Democratic Club. There
is really no reason why there should be
the slightest confusion about the matter
ANY Democrat has the right to belong
to whatever club he pleases. and any
number of Democrats siay, whenever in
their judgment the interests of the party
will be promoted thereby, withdraw
from the original club aud organize
themselves into a new club. In our
Judgment, Camden and vicinity can
vcry we'll afford to have three or more
clubs, which will accomplish more good
chan if they were united in one organiza'
ton. But let us have these clubs or
gaaized regularly, and in such manner
as not to create confusion among our
selves. IF all will bear in mind the fact
that it is the prerogative ola voter to de
termine for himself to which club he
will belong, and that number of voters
may at any time organize themselves
into new club, there will be neither
confusion or hard feeling among the
working men of the party. Let every
man place the success Of the Democratic
party before all other considerations, and
good order and harmony in our ranks
will follow as q necessary consequence

The New Council.

The new council are showing a dis
position to administer the affairs of the
town in a manner that will be accepta-
BILE to the taxpayers. They have con-
solidated the offices of recorder and treas
urer allowing the incumbent $3.50 per
year with the pcrquisites of the office,
and abolished that Of marshal. there
being now a chief of police with salary
of $50 per month. and four policemen,
each to receive $40 instead of S27
per month as formerly. In this way
it is estimated that the expenses of the
town will be reduced at least one third
But whether or not the changes will
upon the whole be practicable and econ
omical remains to be seen. We know
of no reason why they should not.
The council have also shown their
desire to advance the interests Of the
town by the appointments they have
made to the subordinate Offices. The
selections are perhaps as good as could
have been,,madc, and that they are so is
subject of congratulation to the town
Having opposed with whatever
power we possessed the election o'
the present council. We now ask 10,
them fair trial. II is better far tc
praise the good than to rail at the i'll.

Tho Fourth District.

A writer in the Lancaster Ledger
nominatcs Gen. John B. Erwin, CT that
County, for Congress from the Fourth
District. Gen. Erwin is man OF edu
cation and liberal views, and has come
up to the full measure of his duty in
whatever position he has been placed
lie was a member Of tho last Leslsla-
ture, and was known as one of the most
quiet, but cnergeticand effective workers
of the House. Should he receive the
nomination for Congress, his election
would be sure, and he would represent
and reflect credit upon tho Fourth
District.

Among the business transacted by
the State Democratic Executive Com
mitice, at its meeting in this city yestcr-
day, the following general plan for con i,
ducling the primary elections was agreed
upon, and ordered to be sent to the va
rious County Chairmen. The members
are impressed with the importance OF the
system as the best an1 faircst method
for selecting candidates to be voted for
in each county, thereby tending to unity
and harmonize the party throughout the
State. The suggestion made IN the an
nexc series are general in their chaIac'
ter. as is entirely proper, for it would DC
difficult to prepare details which would
operate with equal force ant smOothness

adopted {:
Resolred, That we the members of Flat
Rock Democratic Club acknowledge with
gratitude the efficient services Of his Excel
lency Governor Wade Hampton during the
ost trying period in the history of our
State, and we regard him ms the most suit
able candidate that can be put into the
field for the Office of Governor at the ensu-
ing election.
Remarks we're made bv several mcm-
brrs, the general tenor being that all
irne Den Gratis will stand together in
the next contest, that the habit Of off ce
seeking is detrimental to the interests
of the party. and that Independent can
didatcs must under no circumstances be
tolerated or supported.
The prospect for good crops in this
section IS favorable, and everybody is
finding something for his hand 70 do.
Should tho seasons be propitious, we
will find ourselves In a b tier condition

were at the close Of last year. Will
write you again some of these days.

Burnette himself crossed the room.

Burnette himself crossed the room.
"Have you thought better of your re-
fusal ?" he asked.
II can only repeat it, sir. My heart,
my love are no longer at my disposal"
There was a rustic of silk upon the rich
carpet, lady advanced dressed in SHIN
mering lustrOus silk, with jewels in her
hair and upon her wrists.
A lady with soft brown eyes and golden
euls, who was introduced as
"My daughter Mable, Mr. Gaylord"
But who was surely, surely May, his
own May, niece of Maria Strong, who
took summer dodgers in small country
village.
Mr.. Burnette had disappeared when
Lucien moved his wondering eyes upon
Mays face and only the lady of his true
love remained.
"You win forgive me, Lucien," she
said drawing him to a seat beside her
upon a sofa, if you think / have deceived
you when l tell you how it all happened.
Ny father-only sp0ks- the truth this
morning when he told you my future was
the only anxiety of his worshiping love
for me-
"When I returned from Norton | told
him of your love for me-my promise to
you. Knowing you loved me for myself
alone, with no knowledge of my position
or fortune, l begged him to send for you
at once and tell the truth.
"But next to his child my father loves
the business he has built up by his own
energy and talent. He wished to be sure
that it would not be ruined in the hands
of his son-in-law, and l consented 10 his
test of your capacity.
at is no small compliment, Lucien, for
him to tell me he is thoroughly satisfied,
willing to trust the future of both his child
and his business to you"
"But, May, are you not Mrs strong's
niece ?"
~ am. She is my mothers sister
Every summerI spend some weeks in
Norton. Still / have never performed
any menial work there, except during your
visit, when there was no servant. My
aunt has never left her home and / take
no inery to Norton, so she does not realize
how different my life is here from my life
with her"
"And you, who must see SO many suitors,
we're willing to give me the treasure of
your love?
"Ah, Lucien, love is tyrant He took
US both under his rule in those summer
days at Norton, when / was writing to
papa of Aunt Maria's lodger, and he was
hoping and fearing for me. But come
now to the library, and tell him you have
reconsidered his offer, and will marry that
unknown lady you so positively refused
only this morning"

Of Nays wedding day has passed, but

The Book SERPENTs.- day a
gentleman in India went into his library
and took down a book from the shelves.
As he did so he felt slight pain in his
finger, like the prick of a pin. He
thought that pin had been stuck by some
careless person in the cover of the book.
But soon his finger began to swell, then
his arm, and then his whole body, and in
a few days he died. 1t was not a pin
among the books, bnt small deadly ser
pent. There are many serpents among the
books nowadays. They nestle in the
foliage of some CT our most fascinating
literature; they coil around the flowers
whose perfume intoxicates the senses.
We read, we are charmed with the plot
of the story, by the skill with which the
characters are sculptured or grouped, by
the gorgeousaess Of the word painting
we hardly feel the prick of the evil that is
insinuated. But it stings and pOisOns us.

Birthday Gifts.

1t requires some tact to present just the
right gift to the right person. Books and
flowers are always in order. To make ac-
ceptable gifts in the line of dress to lady
is very delicate and not always success
full undertaking. Ere you venture upon
it inform yourself pretty thoroughly in
regard to the feelings of the elect Even
though yOur selection should harmonic
delightfully."- with her preferences, there is
just the shadow of a possibility that she
may entertain some little sensitive misgiv-
ings about accepting present of such
an equivocal utility. And she may always
be forced to wear it with painful minor
feeling of having been a subject of conf
dental beneyolence "What shall obtain
fora suitable gift to a gentleman?" is a
question frequently asked with some anx-
iety. If the responsible party kindly item
ICES, the bill will generally contain "a
dressing gown, slippers, or a dozen hand
kerchiefs embroidered with initials" To
this we will add little work-case, all
neatly fitted up for emergencies of stitch
ing and drawing; napkin ring, drink
ing-cup, either of silver, china or glass.
This last is the daintiest fattery to mascu-
line self-esteem, and is a particularly sue
cessful offering. IF you can paint, or
work in wax flowers, tasteful specimen
Of your handiwork viii be acceptable.

Cheap Carriages.

Shoddy carriages are, it is plain. much
more dangerous to those who use them
than shoddy pianos, and, if the Carriooe
AoHthly is correct in its statements tho
manufacture of the former is as common
as Of the latter. According to the paper
named, "the crOssgrain, knotted, gnarled
checked hubs, spokes, and rims that are fit
for nothing but fuel are thrown together
by the cheapest process and poorest labor.
and sold to the shoddy builder for a mere
trife in advance of the bare expenses of
making the worthless stock. The gearings
are made by the wholesale on the same
principle, while the market price of a doz.
en- pairs Of shafts would hardly be equal
to that for one good, seryiceable pair
The bodies are the products of toll ground
down to successfully compete with pauper
labor. Nails are used in place of screws.
while glue and canvas are found to be un-
necessary. The iron is the poorest NAL
leable, and those parts that are forged are
coarse and poorly made"
The subject is of grave interest not
only to carriage manufacturers and owners.
but to the general public, for wrecked
vehicle is likely to endanger more lives
than that of the party riding in it. The
wonderful cheapness of some kinds Of car.
riages, and the frequency of break. k.dOwns
and consequent runaways, indicate that
carriages made nowadays are not all pat.
