Congressional Nominations.

AS no nominations for Congress havo vet
boon made in this State, wo should like to
SEQ the experiment of selecting candidate
by primary election triod This mode of
nonlnation possesses several attractive fea :
turea, which will, in our opinion, amply
repay for tho slight Inconvenience it will
occasion. BY this system tho lost popular,
and hence tho most acceptable man in tho
district will be put forward for election.
1t gives trcer canvass of tho merits and
domcrits Of any aspiraut, and the question
10 decided ny greater number Of people
than by the Convention, and therefore tho
decision is apt to DO more impartial, and is
more sure to condemn an improper aspirant.
The greatest advantage, however, wo think
is to be derived from bringing members of
Congress face to face once in every two
years With their immediate constituents,
which will keep thcn in harmony with
their party, and prevent the new departures
which crratic statesmen who feel over Sc
cure in their seats sometimes indulge. BY
this necessity to please the ordinary voters
they would study the wants and condition
OF their constituents 10 better advantage
by personal observation aud association du-
ring tho canvass for tho nomination, aud
could render mora efficient service after
election. We arc willing to try this plan
in the Third District with the thr,o gen
ticn,cn WHO have been spoken OF for tho
nomination. Tt will be fair to oil of them,
and we know that wo fully express tho
feeling of Col. Orr, who is the preference
OF this and OF least two or throo other
Counties for tho position, when We say that
he does not desire the nomination unless he
is the choice Of the majority of tho Demo.
cratic voters Of tho District, and we pre-
sumo it is also the case Of the other gentle
men named for tho nomination. 1t would
gl'o to Coz. Aiken tho opportunity to face
his constituents and render an account of
his stewardship, thus giving to him the
advantage of an intelligent review, and at
he same time affordng the opportunity for
such open aud fair criticism as is hcalthful
ID proper. 1t will give an equal chance
to al end allow tho people to rouder their
own verdict, after seeing and hea ing all the
candidates, their opinions and tho objcc-
tons to them. We arc, the efore, highly
in favor of referring the Congressional
nominations generally, on'. in this District
particularly, to a primar, election. 1t will
be fair to a|l--ur.air to none-and tho
result will be satisfactory to the friends of
all partie5-.An3erS0n IpfeHiUeucer

The Code in South Carolina.

1t looks as though the blood of Colonel
Shannon, the last South Carolinian who
foil in duel, had not been shod in vain.
Any fatal duol involves murder, but this
was murder 80 black and 50 wanton, in
view Of tho oharaoter of tho doooasod and
tho trumped up Issue upon which ho was
made to fight, that public opinion even in
South Carolina could not bo blinded to its
onormity, and tho consequence is q disouu-
sion upon tho whole subject of duelng
which must be most salutary in its results.
The Neps and Courier deserves the high.
est praise for it's efforts to set tho codo of
false honor before tho people in tho proper
light. Before tho Cush-Shanuon murdor
that Journal hud begun tho good work by
calling for tho organization of anti- -duelipg
societies, and it now uscs the old arguments
with frosh aud powerful illustration of a
form of wickedness which it Justly do
noun.es a3 relic of barbarism aud q curse
to tho South. Tho Ne,cs and Courier is
called to account by son Of the Shannon
murderer, but the editor treats with con
tempt and defiance his demand that adverse
criticism must "ocaso from date" More
significant, however, is the publication of a

From such source this means good deal
There was q timo when Senator from

General Butler does himself honor iu the

by example he can do much to bring about

that if Hampton and Butler and tho Ncws

into an anti ducing league there would be
no moro ducling in South Carolina.
