The Health of AbbeYille.

The good old town of Abbevillo IS
blessed with perfect health. But this is
so much her constant condition that we
fear she does not know or think how Tor
tunate she is. We soc in our exchanges
accounts of towns infested with malaria,
shaking with ague, and burning with lc-
yer; while Abbcville has Il clean bill O.
health and is free from all these llis'
How thankful she ought to be thai
she is not as other towns are, MOI
even AS her sister Iaurcns. 1h'
same may be said of almost the entire
county. Where can be found healthier
places than Due West, ~Cohcshury, Green
! wood and other villages? For some time
Nincty-Six was rendered malarlols u!
the impure Fowler branch, but that loca
mfirn,itv has been attended to, and now
that town is enjoying good health. ~
one of the results of good health, an aSoo
couple in our town will in a few davs
celebrate their golden wedding, and they
both are hale and hearty, Then Able
Vile has, in active practice at the bar, inc
oldest lawyer in the State of South Car
Dina, and he is in activity and riSor ~

Abbeville Graded School.

The annual session of the Abbeville
Graded School came to aclose last Thurs
day. Several of the members Of the
board of trustees attended the final ex-
aminations, and at their request the Rev
jas. L. Martin surprised and delighted
the pupils by closing the school o n Thurs
day instead of on Friday, as they had ex-
.pected. The additional holiday was
thankfully received. The next session
will open in the middle Of September
the exact day has not yet been fixed by
the trustees. The opening day will be
made known in the newspapers. Mr.. S.
J. Graham, who has acted as principal
for two years, has been admitted to the
bar, and the trustees must now look out
for a new principal. They desire to find
in the new principal a man who is able
not only to teach the ordinary branches,
but to keep up a classical department and
prepare boys for the university. BY the
notice in our columns it will be seer that
the annual meeting Of the Abbeville
School Association will take place in the
Court House on Friday, when a full
meeting of the members is expected, as
business of Importance will he laid be-
fore the meeting.

The Militia.

General Manigault, the candidate for
Adjutant and Inspector General on the
Democratic State ticket, is a graduate O.
West Point, and had four years service
in. the late war. Under the inspiration O.
his management and command the mill
tia of the State will assume greater dig
nifty and take on new life. This is not the
place to discuss the necessity of a body
of militia to the State. That has been
demonstrated too forcibly to need argu-
ment to sustain it. 1t has been much the
fashion with those who served through
the wal to ridicule the militia. But we
are confident that General Manigault will
succeed in infusing vitality into it, and
raise It to the responsibility and influ-
enee which it had before the war, when
Offices were sought as places Of honor.
The Legislature, we sincerely trust, will
enact laws under which these things can
be done, and perhaps the hosts of Gener-
nils. Colonels and Captains who now
bear these empty honors will find mate
rial out Of which to organize brigades and
regiments and companies. We think
that a good time is coming for the mi
Iitia- ..

Concerning Garfield.

The New York Sun says cmphatically that
Gen. Garfield Is not q man to whom the
executive authority of the Republic can be
safely entrusted.
The New York Times, Grants organ, can.
, d!dly acknowledges that with Mr.. Garfield at
the head OF the Republican ticket the con
| tcst.will not only be ardIous but extremely
uncertain In its results. \ hint even Is In.
dulgcd That his defeat may be indurtd Mithlit:
! tie regret. Logan says, 81 hazard little III
saving that the confident expectation OF
Grants leaders is that Garfield will be beaten
in $780,"
The Tribune Blain's organ aserts that "Jas.
A.. Garfield Is Of almost ideal fitness for PrcSi'
dency," and believes that the campaign OF
1850 has an auSpiciOnS opening.
The .Journnl If Commerce Sllcrman's organ,
is by no means confident but thinks 1t Twill
not be surprised il Il man Of honesty and
ability like Garfield IS called to the White
House."
The Rcrald..says Gen. Garfield is not the
choice of his party, and If the Democrats
Garfield carrying New York whose loss woul
be fatal to mis- hopes
The Philadelphia Times admitsthat Garfield
Is not likely to prove Il strong candidate be-
cause he will be aSsailcd in his State by po-
litical cncm es with bitterre 50 d
dis integrity will be positively brought In
question together with the purity OF his bub-
lie record. His election will he impossible IL
craftsmanship and patriotism prevail at lin
clnnati.
The World positively afilrs that &c nomina-
nation of Garfield Is not only a compromise
1t is a weak and timid compromise
Will be required at Cincinnati to make n
Democratic victory sure"
The Baltimore Sun has no doubts that the
leaders of Grant expect the defeat Of the
Republican ticket and Shcrlnan's followers
sorry they were In such q hurry TO abandon
their leader for such Il weak man Us Garfield.

iayc Veto.

No President of the United States has
ever used the veto power to the extent to
which Mr.. Hayes has used it. His last
act was 10 veto what was called the Mar
shall's Fill, which provided that Deputy
and special United States Marshalls
should be appointed from both political
parties. 1t provided also the manner OF
their appointment, and regulated theil
duties and pay. It's object was to restrict
the powers and duties of the partisan
election Marshalls as they are now ap-
pointed. The bill was generous, fair and
desirable. Mr.. Hayes vetoed 1t. His
message is an ingenious attempt toshow
that he bases his veto upon legal grounds
TO our minds it is clear that the mcancs'
party spirit dictated his action. Senator
lsavard was the earnest advocate of thu
bill. SO little respect had the Senate fol
the message that it adjourned sine di
without considering it.

Grant in 1854.

Colonel Mcclure tclcgrrphs to the Philadcl-
phia Times from Chicago, general Grant
quietly slipped into the Palmer House this
morning, md l never saw hun look more gem
tie and composed. lie came unIeialdcd. at
least to the multitude, and witnesses with
cpmpIacency tho prOfisc floral and bunting
decorations OF the Palmer House rotunIa and
Hobbies which were intended to celebrate his
nomination. He ciIattcd pleasantly In pas
sing his acQuaiilunccs, walked lciSurclY to
the l;.dics pnrlor and The outer doors were
closed against all when he entered. In halt
an hour he stepped out In the same unOstcn'
lati0uS mannrr, and the fitces OF Cameron,
Logan and Sl0rrS were visible us the licutcn.
ants with whom he had been In conference.
What TRANSFERRED In that brief council OF war
will probably never be known to the public,
but after Grant had hurried of. to The Mil.
w;tikic train both Cameron and Logan said
publicly thai Grant would be nominated
without opposition in 1871. The confident eN.
pcctatiOn OF General Grant AMI his leaders Is
that Garfield will be beaten in lSS0. and thai
one term OF Democratic rule under the inspi-
ration OF the Confederate brigadicrs will
make the Republican party shout Il sponta'
neouS call fur the return OF its old commando
or. and that the country will elect him by
the largest popular majority ever given Ia
any President since M0niOc. G.n. Grant Is
rcpulSrd, not DEFEATED, and he I o more doubts
his election to the Presidency II lie iivcs than
he doubted his conquest Of Richmond when
his lines rctrcatrd in bloody confusion from
cold lIar1Or.

Our Cemeteries.

About a year ago We called attention in
these columns to the condition of our
cemeteries, and especially of Long Cane
Churchyard, and to the necessity OF DO
ing something to put them in better or
der. Right we'll did tho people of Able
vile and OF the country around respond
to the appeal. committee was appoint
ed consisting of three members from the
town and three from the country, to take
in charge the Improvement Of Long Came
Churchyard. Money and labour were
literally subscribed, and wisely eNpend-
ed, with the most gratifying results. The
old burial ground was cleared of its rank
growth of weeds aud brushwoUA, the
walks were carefully cleaned, and the
place of the dead was in q very short
time made TO assume d Gcrent, orderly
and wcll-carcd for appearance, worthy o.
The dead and crcGitable to the living.
But all the good which then and thus
was done could only be Of L transient ma
turc. The rici, mould Soon again sent up
its vigorous vegetation, the walks were
soon again ovcrGrown with grass and
weeds; unit! now Us we write, the grave
ward stands in as great need of attention
and care as ever. This was forcsccn last
wear. The committee who superintendent
the work did not suppose that their du!v
was lone and ended thereby. 1t was
part of their plan,-the most important
part by far-to devise measures for keep
ing the graveyard in perpetual good or
der and n~catncss. To effect tins purpose
they considered the plan OF appointing a
REGULAR sexton who should live near and
take charge of the graveyard throughout
the whole year. The Feasibility of erect
ing a new fence and of extending the area,
and modifying somewhat the shape, wa,
also seriously thought Of and discussed.
The conclusion arrived at vas a wise one
to wait until tho Summer or Fall of
this wear, and then to make a great effort
to procure money enough to accomplish
all these desirable ends.
The time will soon come when Il poo
pie in town and country whose dead lie
buried at Long Cane will have to decide
whether the sacred place is to be left
neglected, ovcrgrown, Il wilderness of
weeds and briars; or to he made and
kept in ncatncss, dccency and beauty,
worthy to be the last resting-placc
of our fathers, our children, and our
selves. The desire to beautify the grave
yard and preserve it from disorder
is common to oil whose kindred lie buried
there ; and many families cxpcnd much
time and attention upon their burial lot,
and make it lovely with choice flowers
and shrubs. But it is necessary to have
some organization so as to direct the cf-
forts and make the results permanent
To accomplish this the committee will
soon appeal to the public. The members
of the Long Cane Church session have
always acted pleasantly and literally III
the matter, and they are ready and Will
ing to cooperate with the public in secur'
ing all the improvements necessary, and
desirable, and feasible. We confidently
hope soon to see the old graveyard is it
ought to he-well-kcpt, we'll fenced, beau
titled and under tho constant care Of 4
sexton.
