THE EXCHANGE
THURSDAY. AUGUST %. 1878.


The State Democratic Convention
held last week in Nashville was one
of the largest ever held in Tennessee.
Hon Holmes Cummins was elected
president, and filed that responsible
position::with great ability. The
platform adopted (which we publish
elsewhere) isone calculated to reconcile
all the conflicting elements of the
party, and will give almost universal
satisfaction. 1t is a mastery docu-
ment; and is understood to be from the
pen of Hon Albert S. Marks, the
nominee for Governor. The nomina-
zion Of Judge Marks is about the best
that could have been made, and we
are glad to see that the press Of the
state are supporting him with great
unanimity. He has been Chancellor
of the Winchester district the past
eight years and was recently reelected
without opposition. We have not
room to give the proceedings of the
convention.

THE GovERNoB's CONDITION.
Columbia Rcgister Of Sunday morning
says: "I'hcrc was all unfayorable
change in the condition Of Governor
Hampton yesterday, which caused
considerable uncasiness upon the part
Of the people, and tclcgraphic dis
patches were sent to Charleston for
DIR. Kinioch, and to Augusta for DR..
Campbell, requesting these gentlemen
to repair at once to his bedside. A
special train left Charleston yesterday
afternoon with DR.. Kinloch, who was
expected here last evening at eight
O'Clock. We trust that by the skill, of
the eminent surgeons who have his
case in hand and those who have been
summoned to their aid, and through
the mercy Of Him who docth all things
wisely and well, that this bitter cup
may pass from our lips, and that the
people Of this State may shortly be
able to praise God for his goodness to
them in granting Wade Hampton
many more years Of usefulness to his
people," The Register adds: owe arc
happy to learn that the condition of
tho Governor has improved very
much since the above was written :;
the consulting physicians agreeing in
full with the attending physicians as
regards treatment, and that the pros
pect in saving his leg and his ultimate
recovery is good" n
