SEALING THE Vow.-A correspondent
of the New York Commercial Advertiser,
writing from the Round Lake camp meet.
ing, tells the following story
Many people sleep in the Same tent here,
being separated by partitions. AS young
Methodist fellows arc thrown with pretty
young ladies good deal, it is nothing
against them that they sometimes fall in
love.
Last night they say, this happened: A
young Methodist fellow from Ballston had

while dozen of cold hearted fellows were
trying to sleep, they were continually an
noyed by the lovers spoony talk, which
they distinctly heard through the cloth par.
tition.
They heard him say in low, sweet Clar-
cndon voice. "Now, Caroline, dear, do let
mo seal the vow-dow
"No, James, cannot. What would nv
father and mother say?" replied sweet
girlish voice.
"But, Caroline, you have promised to be
mlne-now let us seal the vow-let us. do
let us-won't you ?-do kiss me?"
"No, James, cannot, o, cannot
IN momeut the tent partition parted
and big whiskered brother, who wanted
to sleep shouted, "For Heavens sake Car.

awake all night if you don't."
The VOW was sealed.

Unity must be had. They who slumber on in
false security, they who postpone preparations
for the fight, they who encourage or permit dis
sension and division, for any reason or upon any
pretext, are as much the public enemies as the
political lepers whom Democratic rule drives
into the Pen,teRtiary or out Of the State. NAL
contents laggards, disorganizers, shall not pull
down the Democratic party, although they may
multiply its difficulties and make the struggle
harder and more desperate; and, when the bat
tie is won, as it shall be, the Democratic party,
forits own s6k 9, will, psas sentence upon any
who, not being with as, are against us, and
make them, for all time, political outcasts, de-
spised by Democrats of their own race and shtin-
mel by the colored Democrats who have been
tried and have kept the faith.
For the white Democrats, the State Committee
are sure, no other exhortation is needed. They
know full well that Democratic rule is worth
having, and that what is worth having is worth
keeping, and will be kept. By the colored
Democrats, as the State Committee believe, the
solid advantages Of an enlightened and honest
government are thoroughly appreciated. They
have seen and felt the difference between integ-
rity and rascality, between lofty justice and
partisan rule. The hope is that the oolored
people, in larger numbers than ever before, will
(narch beneath the folds Of the Democratic ban
her and so assist the Democracy in perpetuating
the work of Governmental reform and Industrial
restoration.
The reign Of ignorance and vice in South
Carolina is past and gone. Virtue, intelligence
and elevated craftsmanship shall, as during the
last two years, control the public affairs Of South
Carolina. For this the people fought in 1915,
and the sceptre then grasped for the first time
ineigh years by pure and strong hands will
not belaid down and shall not be wrested away.

searui IiAe any honest Republican to tell us
frankly what. he would think ofthe Southern
people were they to treat their ex-soldiers
with coldness or contempt? Would not
the world have reason to despise the South
if it should prove ungrateful to or neglectful
of the men who fought for the cause that
they deemed just? We are confident
that there is no honest man in any party
ybs yhe, Xas3a Rot az that such jngrasisnde
the South patiently and oheerfully pay their
proportion of the vast outlay required for
pensions and soldiers homes in which their
manned veterans have no share and expect
none. 1t seems to us that they might be
permitted to show their kindly feeling for
their own soldiers, in their own way, so long
as they obey the laws and menace no mans
rights, without bringing down on their
heads the abuse of Northern journals or
bowling demagogues"

GERMANY SHOCKED AND D1seRAcED.
LONDON, June ga Berlin dispatch to the
Times says the subject of the congress has be-
come a matter of indifference and even the
Grosser Kurfurst calamity is hardly spoken of
in the presence of the attempted assassination
of the Emperor. The country literally
trembles with the shock and the disgrace il
deeply felt everywhere. That social rantings
should lead astray Hoedel is Ineligible
enough, but that doctor of philosophy, an in
telligent, highly cultivated individual and scion
Of q respectable family could have been driven
by the absurd philosophy Of the commune, and
stimulated to force his individual madness up
on the common sense of the sane millions, WAC
unexpected. The people were not prepared for
this extreme result of the theories rife in their
midst. If sober, intelligent son of some position
in society and aspiring to scholastic henors,
could be betrayed into lifting his head against
this kind-hearted old man, the venerable
sovereign OF his people, and living impersona-
ton of their long designed unity, there must
be an infection in these doctrines which no one
would have attributed to them. A few days
ago dispatch from Paris says private letter
from Germany explains that though the 60
| cialists admit there is not kinder-hearted or
| more affable man in Europe than the emperor,
| or one more mindful Of the sufferings Of his
SUBJECTS, tney regard MIN as the chief promoter
and supporter of the present military system,
and think that if he were ont Of the way
| policy of peace and social development would
be forced upon the government, and the scourge
of great standing army be gotten rid of.
