Mr.. Townsend has lived very little in

never lost the old love for his native State
which seems to hang TO all her sous, and
though he has. in the ferment of what hs:
latterly been called progress now and ther

declare that there is again some talk there
in Republican circles of Withdrawing
General Garfield on account of the fear
of further revelations concerning his
career which the microscopic study of his
record suggested by the Credit Mobilier

The Charleston Nens and Courier has
been making persistent effort to create
an anti. duelling sentiment in South Caro-
lima and to put a stop to the carrying of
deadly weapons. The terrible result of
the recent duel in that State will doubtless
assist our Charleston contemporary in its
efforts. We expect, however, that in
comments on the fatal encounter there
will be no mention of the anti .duelIing
effort and organizations, but that it will be
assumed that the whole population of the
Palmetto state approves of the bloody
code only acknowledged by a few hot
heads.
