Woman's SUFFRAGE.

ring the session of the Convention
not Que is more astounding than the
efforts Of the representatives of Wo-

liar views upon the platform of the
Republican party. What may be the
final result Of The persistent efforts
made by these advanced women is
hard to say; but one thing we do
know that the political party which
espouses that cause, will as certainly
die as the attempt is made, and the
political Convention with four hun

end in luntic asylum in three days

GaAeld's Candidacy.

AS q candidate for the Presidency
it is not likely that Mr. Garfield will
receive the entire support Of the Re
publican party. The contest, which
resulted in his nomination, was too
long, active and bitter to warrant
such q conclusion. The circum.
stances attending his advancement
and the relations Of tie faction lead
ers themselves we're Of such q nature
as TO preclude such probability.
Blaine's opposition 10 Grant is not
less than that Of Conkling to Garfield.
Party bonds do not generally control
the active passions of the human
heart, and the hatred these gentlemen
bear each other will rot indure the
stlngs Of The party lash. The memo
ry Of the old rebuke which Garfield
administered to Conkling in Wash
ington once and the more recent one
at the Chicago Convention on the res
olution ruling out the three West
Virginia delegates, will not make that
gentleman and bis friends active
workers in the next campaign. It is
not reasonable to suppose that either
Grant or Conkling will occupy more
than a passive position in this elec
ton. If they conclude to take no
part, their indifference will so cripple
the operations Of the party in New
York and Illinois as to render the
conquest of those States by the Demo
cracy quite an easy task. We once
thought that Grant would be the east
est OF the Republican candidates to
defeat, bat the complications, in
which tie Chicago Convention has
involved the party, make Mr.. Gar
fields defeat foregone conclusion.
If the Democrats, a. Cincinnati. will,
with anything like uusHiasity, nomi-
nate any one of their leading candi-
dates, Bayasd, Fields or Hancock,
the way is clear not only for glori
Gus victory but for an overwhelming
defeat Of the Republican party. Moth
ing can rob us Of this but course
of suicidal folly at our approaching
National Convention

played by the manner in which he has
discharged the duties Of that position du-

our claim I'm his behalf ON the ground
that the incumbent of that Office ought
to have considerable experience in the

DueIling.

The citizens of Camden and Ker-
shaw County, in view Of the frequent
occurrence Of duels in their section,
have organized society, called HThe
Camden and Kersilaw Anti.Duelling
Association to prevent the crime OF
duelling. if possible, by enforcing the
law in such cases provided. The
movesnent Is made under the auspices
of Judge J. B. Kershaw and others
Of the most influential citizens of the
county, and has every prospect Of ac-
complishing it's purpose. The only way
to stop this crime is "to educate pub
lie opinion and train the moral sense
Of the people to g true perception Of
the criminality OF this wicked and
perniciouS practice" The mere fact
of duelling being popular mode of
adjusting personal dithcuttfes7fdns not
make it less a crime against the peace
of society, or the revenge it seeks TO
give, less savage and cowardly, or
the killing when done less a murder.
Against the first, public opinion
should be arrayed, against the second
the voices of brave men should be
raised, and against tue last, the law
against murder should DE enfonced.

The balloting sins tho Republican
Convention at Chicago began on
Monday last in the presence OF a !
large audience. the first vote reveal
ing the full strength. of the contend
ing candidates Grant; S04; Blaine,
284, and Sherman 80. rhese figures
were maintained throughout the day
with but slight fluctuations Grant
reaching s0s, Blaine 2s5 and sher-
man 9s. Whilst the. twenty. eight
ballots showed no sign of weakness
on the part Of the contestants, there
was certainly no additional strength
developed by which o Judgment could
be formed as to the final result. II
anything, the indications pointed to a
new man as the successful one. Who
he should re, did not appear from
any of the proceedings on Monday );
but the following night combinations
wore made which gave quite differ
ent phase to the balloti,,g of Tuesday.
and proved to the Grant faction, be
fore it had progressed far, that the
day was lost. Mr. Garfield, of Ohio,
who the day before k;a&g. received only
two votes, began to grow rapidly in
favor with the members until the re-
suit of the thirtyssixth ballot gave
him the requisite number to be de-
clared the nominee of the National
Republican Party for the Presidency.
The following is the relative positions
the candidates occupied when the hal
l"ting closed: Garfield, 399; Grant,
306; Blaine, AZ; Sherman, 3; Wash
burDe, 5.
This ends, we hope, the career of
Gen. Grant. He is politically dead.
All the glory of the past, both as
military leader and as the chief mag
istrate OF great republic, is destroy
w " oh ihoihidIe aHu OVST.leaCu-
ing ambition. Had he never con-
ce,ved the idea of third-term, histo-
ry would have written his name high
up in til" list of Americas great men !;
but his conduct during the last few
months together with the balloting of
the Chicago Convention, prove how
false the record would have been.
Had he never dreamed Of occupying
a position near to Washington in the
hearts of the people, his present
Shame would never have overtaken
him, or his utter insignifcance ap-
peared in the comparison. Had he
never assayed to do what was be.
yond his ability to perform, his true
position in American history might
never have been reached, or posterity
learned what a child OF circumstances
merely, the so called hero of the
great civil war haf been. In the
same political' grave with Grant lie
buried Blaine, Corkiing, Edmunds,
Sherman and Logan. Peace be to
their ashes and rest,to the county.

For Nice-President.

Upon the heels Of tue excitement
caused by the triumphant nomination
of Hon. James A. Garfield as candi-
date for the Presidency .he Republi.
can Convention entered upon q bal.
lot for the nominee for Weep esi-
dent, which resulted in the selection
of Gen. Chester A. Arthur Of New
York. How this nomination will
affect the ticket, is too early to judge.
Gen. Arthur is said to be the person
al friend of MIR. Conkling, whose
wrath perhaps his nomination is in
tended TO appease with a view of
securing the electoral vote of New
York for this ticket. Arthur belongs
to the machine faction, and will give
but little additional strength to the
ticket, if any at all. Indeed it is q
feeble attempt to unite the Grant
G Milling faction and thus enlist the
influence of their friends in behalf of
the tickets. Upon the whole, Gar
field, with his Credit Mobelier connec-
tion and other swindlcs in which he
took hand, and Arthur with his
Custom House record and limited
public notoriety will make a nice tai
get for the Democratic arrows to be

The Result Of the Convention.

The Result Of the Convention.
The heated discussion on early
nomination before the State Demo
cratic Convention seems to have had
no i'll effects upon the prospect Of the
approaching campaign. It was found
that early nominations were desired
not only by amajority of the people
themselves but Of the members of the
Convention and the minority true TO
their loyalty, when the decision had
been made, pledged generous, al
most unanimous, support to the tick
OF. It was determined that the unity
Of the party should not be sacrificed
to personal ambition or favoritism,
and this assures such vigorous cam
paign as will be guarantee of final
success both State and local county
elections. The most stubborn oppo-
sition to the measure was given by
Edge1eld delegation, but, when the
fight was ended, the magnanimous
avowai OF Speaker Sheppard that lie
would stand or fall by the decision
Of the Convention, gives ample assur-
ance that Tire ticket will receive the
entire vote of TIE county. There is
30 reason TO suppose that Gen, Gary
and bis personal friends will not stand
by the action Of the Convention or
withhold their support from the ticket
nominated. Such course would he
in direct opposition to Gen. Gary's
lifelong faith in the rule of the ma
jority as we'll as is in conflict with the
noble sentiments uttered before the
Edgetield Convention which binds
him to the action of that majority.
His known patriotism, past services
to the State and his deep interest in
tho welfare Of her citizens constitute
sure standard by which we may
judge his conduct in this crisis of our
affairs. The other delegations, COM
posing the minority, at once gave
their cordial assent and returned
home with fixed purpose to enter
the campaign at the proper time and
to work for the success of the ticket
rs if their own opinions had prevail.
ed.
Such is the excellent spirit and
unanimity Of sentiment prevailing
throughout the entire borders Of our
State at the present time, that every
citizen may feel satisfied through the
season Of rest from political excite.
ment, which will intervene between
the nominations and the opening oI
the campaign, of oneness of purpose
on tue part Of every section of the
State. The farmer may follow his
crops and the laborer has work with
out any dread Of interference until the
harvest is over, and then with united
efforts, under the leadership of the
gallant Hagood, we will enter the con.
fiict and never cease until Democracy
is enthroned not only in South Caro-
lima but in every State Of the Union.
