EX.PRESIDENT HAYES.

A singular story relative to eX-President
Hayes comes from Washington. 1t is cur
rently reported in that city that the Seventh
day Adventists, areligious sect having their
headquarters at Battle Creek, Mich, are
expecting convert shortly in no less per-
son than the Hon. Rutherford B. Hayes ;
that he will be followed by number OF
other people of note, and that soon after the
end of the present state of things will come
to pass. The Seventh-days observe Satur-
day, for their Sabbath, and believe in the
second coming of Christ. Recently, as the
report goes, Mr.. Hayes wrote to Elder Cart
wright, who is at the head of the order, ask
ing for books and pamphlets bearing on the
belief. Elder Cartwright set about comply
ing with the request, and while engaged in
gathering the literature together, staggered
against the startling bit of information that
Mr.. Hayes has once been President of the
United States. The discovery set the elder
to thinking, and then he and others remem-
bered it was promised that sign that the
end was near would be the coming of many
public men into their fold. They at once
conceived that Mr.. Hayes was the advance
guard, and they posted to him right away
every work they thought would be of inter-
est to him. The Adventists have been in
high state of excitement ever since. The
effect of the literature on Mr.. Hayes has not
heen ascertained,

ToTHE EDITOR OF THE ENQUIRER: Feel
ing grateful to my friends for the confidence
they repose in me by suggesting my name
for reelection to the office of Intendant of
Yorkville, must be permitted to emphat-
ically decline allowing my name to be
placed in nomination. Regard for my pri-
vate business demands this course, after a
service of two years on the board and one
year as Intendant. A very acceptable tick
ct was named in the ENQUIRER of last
Thursday, and so far from feeling antagon-
lied by it, give it my hearty sympathy
and support. have had intimations that
my name will be proposed for reelection,
and to prevent any complications I make
this public announcement in advance that
I do not desire the position, and with due
Difference to my friends will decline to serve,
even should be elected. Very respectfully,
F. HAPPERFIELD.

be enjoyed only by those who are able to
pay for them, however plausible to the ear,
has long been condemned practically by
every civilized people as selfish to social
progress.
''The last class of objections is really the
most energetic. We have reached that po-
litical condition so earnestly deprecated by
Washington, wherein no great general ques-
tiOn can escape.
THE HARPY-TOUCH OF PARTY SPIRIT.
"This great measure for the general welfare
cannot escape it must be made to subserve
party ends. It originated in the Republi-
can Senate; therefore to the Republican par
ty must belong the glory of it's passage and
to the Democratic party the ignominy OF its
defeat. The Northern Republican members
care but little fora measure from which their
people are to derive but little benefit, and of
which they feel no such pressing need as we
of the South feel. Asa party they could use
the defeat of the bill by the Democrats as a
stronger argument in the coming canvass
than they could the merit of its passage;
hence the injection Of Objectionable features
into the bill and the irritating character of
the debate upon it. 1t was this spirit that
made the 18th section scorpion by insert
ing the sting in it's tail. 1t remains to be
seen whether the Democrats of the House
will play the role assigned them in the Re-
publican game"
With these significant words the inter-
view was closed. n. G. G.

POLITICAL NOTES.

General Butler goes to Chicago as
Democratic delegate-at-large. His last ap-
pearance in the Democratic wigwam was
at Charleston when he voted for Jefferson
Davis.
1t is thought that the reason of Waiter
sons defeat in Louisville is that the Demo-
cratsin Kentucky hold Watterson personally
responsible for raising the tariff issue, and
has killed every chance to elect a Demo-
cratic President. The refusal to instruct for
him is therefore a severe rebuke.
1t is reported from Washington that in
the event he cannot secure the nomination
himself, Mr.. Arthur would be pleased with
the nomination of either Lincoln or Gresh
am, and that Blaine, failing in his effort,
would like to see Gen. Sherman or Ben.
Harrison, of Indiana, nominated.
The North Carolina Republican Conven-
ton, in session in Raleigh, on the End in
stant, nominated Congressman Tyre York,
Liberal, for Governor; Mr.. Faircloth, for
Lieutenant-Governor; Daniel L. Russel, for
Supreme Court Judge; and c. A. Cook,
Liberal, for AttOrney-General. The rest OF
the ticket is Republican. A resolution Of
fered instructing the Chicago delegates to
vote for Gen. Grant was tabled. Dockery,
delegate at large, is for Blaine. The dis
trict delegates are not solid for Arthur.
Republican Conventions to choose dele
gates to the Republican National Conven-
tion which meets in Chicago, on June 3rd,

POLITICS IN THE STATE.

The Oconee County Democratic Conven-
tion will be called at an early day in June.
Congressman Aiken in a letter to citi-
zen of Newberry declares his intention to
be candidate for denomination.
The Abbeville Democratic Convention
does not favor June nominations of the State
officers
The County Democratic Executive Com
mittee of Greenvilie county met last Mon
day and issued call for County Conven-
tion to be held on the first Monday in June.
j. Stanyarne Wilson, Esq, one of the
most energetic and successful attorneys of
Spartanburg, has ANNOUNCED himself as
candidate for the House of Representatives.
The Carolina Spartan in giving good ad-
vice to electioneerers tells them not to speak
against another mans candidate even II they
do dislike him somewhat.
No candidates have yet been announced
in Lancaster. The Democratic Convention
for that county will meet on the second day
of June. The Democratic Convention of
Sumter will meet on the same day.
The Carolina Spartan says: "In the low
er part of the county the farmers are talking
about holding meeting and passing reso-
lutiOns to support no candidate who begins
to canvass the county before the crops are
laid BY"
The Advertiser says there is no cause for
local dissention in Edgefeld county and that
the disaffection caused by the passage of the
Stock law and the Registration and Election
laws has been entirely healed. The practi-
cal operation of these laws has demonstrated
their benefits and the wisdom of their pas
sage.
- The Gaffney Curolinian says: at is sta
ted on good authority, that Col. B. w. Ball,
of Laurens, will be candidate for Con-
gresham Evins' Office at the next election,
provided that Mr.. Evins is not desirous of
being his own successor and there is now
q growing belief that Congressman Evins
will not decline denomination"
There are six colonels who are candi-
dates for Congress from the Fourth District,
in view of which fact the Carolina Spartan
saws: ''It would seem that there is pretty
good chance for clean limbed, high head
ed, dark horse, free from SPAWN and blem-
ishes to prance in and take the lead in his
race"
- The Spartanburg Herald says: "Let us
have fewer elections. What reason is there
for electing sherifs every four years and
Judge Of probate every two years? Why
should not all State and county officers be
elected for four years? The subject is one
worthy of serious thought and earnest ef-
fort"
The Spartanburg Herald says "The
Herald is not in the position to state that
Col. Evinsi is or is not in the race formally as
candidate, but the faithful and eminent
services of the present member call for his
denomination and election. Col. Evins, by
his energy, and ability, has won for himself
a position of influence which it would take
new member years to obtain. He is in
the position now to do more good than ever,
and it would be unjust to ourselves to elect
another member. His people therefore in
sist upon his denomination"

Mrs. Addie Avery Hemphill, wife of Hon.
John J. Hemphill, died on Tuesday night of last

After advertising for proposals in pursuancet to

contracts for some necessary repairs to be made
to the Court House, both of masonry and carpen-

work is the laying of new floor in the offices

in extent, it being only slight repairs essential to
be made before the painting is begun. Messrs
