The Registration and Election law has
worked so admirably in various parts of
the State, that the gentlemen who OPP
posed it last January in the Legislature.
at the recent session expressed themselves
as delighted with its operations. No one
introduced a bill to repeal it or to mate
rally modify it, and if such bill had
been introduced, it would have been de-
featcd by the vote of majority of the
very men who opposed it last winter.
The law is becoming more popular, rs its
benefits are manisesting themselves.

THE .rrnoAomIxG CONVENTION.

The approach Of the time for holding
the County Convention Of the Demo
cratic party, which conyenes on Friday,
the 2Sth inst, has caused the relative
merits and dcmcrits Of the variou, plans
for nominating candidates to be again
freely discussed. There is no question
that the primary election system vii! be
adhered 10 in the coming campaign in
this county and therefore the public in
terest has conferred in the consideration
Of the plurality and the majority plan of
election. The plurality plan existed in
this county in the primaries Of 1876 and
1878, and under it tho men having the
highest number Of votes for the various
offices were declared nominated 80 that
if three men wee running for Clerk OF
the Court, for instance, and there were
three thousand votes polcd, Of which a
received twelve hun',. ed, Is eleven hun.
drcd and G seven hundred, a, whose
vote was greater than either Us or C's
vote separately, but not equal to their
joint vote, which WIS eighteen hundred,
was duly declared nominated. In 1880
the County Convention, by very close
vote, the majority only being about 23
OF one vote, decided to change this rule
and require majority Of all the votes
east, so that in the election above in.
stanccd for Clerk Of the Court at the
conclusion Of the first race, which stood
A twelve hundred, B eleven hundred,
and G seven hundred, there would have
been no choice, for to nominate by the
majority rule the candidate would be re.
quircd to get majority of all the votes
cast, or out of tho poll Of three thousand
votes he would be required to receive nj
least fifteen hundred and one votes, &c
that q new election would be necessary
between A and B, the Two candidates re.
ceiving the highest number Of votes fol
the office. The Executive Committee
requested the various clubs Of the county
to express their preference between the
majority and the plurality rule, and 70
instruct their delegates accordingly
This action of the Committee was wise
and discreet, for it takes the settlement
of the dispute away from the few, and
gives it directly to the people. If the
majority want the plurality they will
have it, or if they want the majority,
they will have it. Every Democrat,
therefore, who desires to have voice in
tho determination of this question, can
do so by attending his club meeting and
voting as he prefers. There will be no
room to cavil or find fault with tho &c
suit, for it will represent the will of a
majority Of tho Democrats who feel
enough interest in it to 60 out and vote.
Besides settling this question the club
meetinge held on the 22nd will elect del
egatcs 10 the County Convention, and
also n member of the County Executive
Committee. 1t is Of great importance
that these club meetings should be we'll
atteaded, in order to make the action
taken by them rs near the voice Of the
whole people as possible, SO that there
may be no ground for any complaint at
the action which may bo taken. We
hope that every Democrat in the county
who can possibly do so will make it G
point to be present Mt his club meeting
on the appointed day.

We had been led to hope Congress
would adjourn on tho l7lh inst, but later
reports fix the probable end of the pres
ent session for the Ist Of August. The
consideration Of tho necessary nppropria-
tion bills has been unusually protracted
by personal wran,les and uncalled for
issues, so that adjournment is by no
means cnsy to fix at this tmo. With the
same delay in the remainder of tho ses-
sion, we will not see the end OF Congress
before the 1st of September. 1t is, how
ever, to be hoped that the members will
frown down by stern disapproval, and, il
necessary, ccnsurc any such unsccmly
and unnecessary hnderances as haze
distinguished tho legislation of the past
month i'll Congress. The adjournment
of this body would be very acceptable to
the people Of The United States for there
has never been mere recklcssy partisan
Congress assembled than the one now in
session. 1t is thoroughly Republican in
NIL of its actions and purposes, but worst
of all it is controlled by tho lesser in
stead of the greater lights of the party.
Taken all together, the country will be
benefited when it sees the last Of the
present session.

The organization Of new Democratic
Club in Anderson is. in our opinion,
most unfortunate. We cannot see any
sufficient reason for the existence of a
new Club, az the work of the campaign
can be best subserved by large Club
working together. rather than by two
Clubs working separately. AS far as We
can ascertain there is really no difference
as to measures between the two, and we
did not know there was any lack Of har.
mony as TO men until the organization
of the new Club was inaugurated. We
hope the evil consequences Of o division
which we fear may not occur. If mode.
ration, prudence and tho rules of the
Democratic party IRE adhered to through.
out, tho two Clubs may work in harmo.
ny, and do efficient service for the party
in the coming State, County and mu-
nicipal campaigns.

The Gladstone Administration met
with q surprising defeat on the Irish Re-
preston Bill in Parliament last week.
The government, backed by the Conscrv-
atiyes, agreed to amend the bill rs n CON.
cession to Ireland so rs to restrictrho
right of search to the day time, and in
this concession they were opposed by the
Wings and Liberals. When the vote
vas about to be taken, Mr.. Gladstone,
pcrceiving the probability of defeat, Ia.
timated that he would resign us Premier
if his amendments were rejected, and
seeing that this was not going to save
them from defeat, the Conservatives i'm
pored tho Irish members to save them
from defeat. The Irish members, how.
ever, remembered the recent treatment
they Ind received from the Gladstone
party, and refused to vote, 90 that the
amendment was lost. MIR. Gladstone,
however, reconsdered his resignation in.
timation and still holds on, so that the
only effect of this little episode was to
mako the course Of the government on
the Repression Bill ridiculous.
