LIE rcsistration Of the voters of
the city of Charleston was closed on
Iuesdoy evening last ut six o'clock
with tue following result: Number Of
white voters, 5,437; number of color
ed voters, 5,34O; total, I0,779. This
gives an increase over the registra-
tion 1877 of 1871 names; of this
number 9l2 are colored voters. 1T is!
probable that considerable repeating
was done on the part Of colored men
while others registered who had no
right to vote in the city which
proves that under the strictest rules
regulating the registration names
may be fraudulcntly entered up the
list.

WHEN certain men want Office aud
can't get IL through The Democratic
party, they become very clamorous
about the rights of the working men.
This dodge was tried insOrangeburg
in 1878 by few chronic ofllcc-seek-
els' but the working men saw through,
the little game and refused tc be led
by the nose. Mayor Sale is relying
upon something of this kind to be
elected Mayor of Charleston, bnt the
intelligent voters Of the city, be they
professional men or mechanics, will
support Capt. VIM. A. Courtcnay, the
regular Democratic nominee.

Tie steamer Champion, of the
Adgcr line, plying between Charles
ton and New York, was lost at the
mouth OF the Delaware river on Fri
day morning last at three o'clock By
collision with the ].ady Octavjo,
which caused the loss of thirty-lour
lives and about 100000 in freight
and ship. Also, the steamer Falcon
from Baltimore to Charleston was
sunk off Cove Point on Saturday night
last by collision with the schooner
S. 4. 1iyon. No lives lost, These
disasters arc Of more than ordinary
interest to our citizens because the
steamers were owned by Charleston
merchants and many Of our own
merchants had goods aboard one or
the other Of these boats. AS n set
off to these losses we learn that the
Geo. ": Clyde has been recently pur-
chased for the New York and
Charleston line, and with the, l4orro
Castle will hereafter run regularly
hetwcon the two ports. This will in
part supply the loss and perhaps in
crease the travel and business.

people who do not want him but the
friends of low prices say they will not
let the struggle down there bother
them so long rs G. ID. Kortjohn lives.
Living now with half what they once
did in consequence Of his cheap stock,
the hardships Of the world do not fall
upon them so heavily rs in former

vast variety Of things, NIr. Kort-
john has become positive blessing
to the county. Indeed, no one man
has made so many hearts happy with
in the last year as Kortjohn. His
auctions and his cheap store are on

bearing his name and fame to every
house and hamlet in the county! If

WE learn that the Fence Law,
which has been in operation in sever
81 of our up-conntry counties for the
past two years, is being pretty freely
discussed by farmers in several sec
of our county. One year ago this
Law could scarcely muster half
dozen friends throughout the low
country, and now in Orangeburg
alone more than that number advo-
cate its adoption as the best
policy to insure the material prosper
ity Of the agriculturalists Of the coun-
try. This charge is doubtless due to
the growing necessity on the part
of our own people to find some
cheaper method Of protecting the
crops than that which obtains now.
1t is always best, however, in such
matters that tho question be freely
and thoroughly discussed, that its adj
vantages and disadvantages be laid
before the public and that no change
be adopted until it is proven to be a
plain necessity. For this purpose
we offer the columns of the DEMOCRAT
to the farmers Of our county in order
that the question may be freely con-
sideled before the necessity arises for
q decision.
