THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 2, lSS
THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.

On the fourth page of this is issue will be
found a lengthy report of the State Repub-
lican Convention, held in Columbia last
week. This report, which embraces all the
essential points in the proceedings, is con-
densed from the elaborate reports of the
Ne,cs and Courier and the Columbia Regis
ter. The proceedings, as published, bring
fOrcibly to mind the old days of Radical
plundering, when the Republicans were
wont to assemble at the Capitol and wran-
gle over the nominations for Office, only
with this difference: there are now no spoils
to furnish for them bone of contention
and it will also be seen that the genius of a
Scott, a Moses, a Chamberlain, a Patterson
and other greater lights Of Republicanism
as the doctrines of that body were eXempli-
fed in South Carolina, were lacking. The
old army Of plunderers is scattered, and
their places in the recent Convention were
filled only by those who formerly would
have taken back seats and been content
with the crusts doled out by the lead
ers. But still there is some material
yet in the Republican party in South
Carolina. 1t will not be safe for the De-
mocracy of the State to quietly rest, on the
assumption that Republicanism having
been dormant since 1876, that only Demo-
cratic walk over awaits the party on next
election day. While it is not now known
whether or not the nominees on the State
ticket will accept, the general supposition
is that they will; and though they may not
make a canvass Of the State, yet all Repub-
lican voters will be instructed to turn out
and vote their full strength. 1t therefore be-
hooves the Democratic voters throughout
the State to do their full duty.

Says the Charlotte Observer of last Thurs
day: BY action Of the session of the Asso-
ciate Reformed Presbyterian Synod, recent
ly held in Augusta county, Va, Rev. w.
II, Waller is to be succeeded in the pastO-
rate of the Reformed church in this city by
Rev. Jonathan G.. Galloway, of Louisville,
Ga. Mr.. Waller will 60 to Louisville to
take charge of the pulpit which Mr.. Gallo
way leaves, it being merely an exchange of
preachers. Mr.. Waller has been pastor OF
the Reformed church in this city for long
time past and has greatly endeared himself
to his people. The echange takes place about
October 1St.
"A large number Of delegates, probably
several hundred, representing nearly all
the nations of the earth, met yesterday in
Washington to provide for greater uniform
ity in reckoning time and longitude. This
conference has been called by President Ar
thur in accordance with the action of Con-
gress in 1882. Each nation is invited to
send five delegates, including its diplomatic
representative at Washington. The gen.
cral acceptance of the invitation indicates
that the establishment Of common prime
meridian is fully understood and that sue
cessful result may be confidently expected.
The meridian of Greenwich is now used by
so many nations that its selection for the
uniform system of reckoning time and long
itude is probable, although it has been pro-
posed by a committee of the French Acade-
nv of Sciences that the ancient meridian of
Ptolemy, about 31.7 degrees from Paris, be
chosen. 1t is believed, however, that
France will willingly accept the meridian
of Greenwich if England will express a
disposition to encourage the uniication of
weights and measures by joining the Met
riraI Convention of 1875.

TIE PSALM-SINGING CIIURCIIEs.-The
conference of delegates from Psalm-singing
churches, called for the purpose of consult
ing with reference to closer union and to
devise means whereby the custom of Psalm
singing in churches may be preserved, met
in Pittsburg, Pa, last Thursday. Fifteen
delegates representing the United Presby-
terian, the Southern, Associate Reform and
the Old Side Reform Presbyterian Church
es, responded to the roll call. Rev. DR..
Boyce, of South Carolina, was elected Chair
man and Rev. VIM. NJ. a. Meyard, of Wash
ington, Pa, Secretary. The object of the
conference was then read, and it was deci-
ded to allow all the delegates an opportu-
nifty to give their views as to the best meth
cd of effecting the desired union. Alengthly
but harmonious discussion then ensued, in
which it was shown that the delegates were
almost unanimously in favor of an organi-
zation but did not think it was possible at
the present time.

Tim Flanagan always lived quite high,
For mkt to the roof he had a home;
A laborin man who kept job,
For Tim was niver hand to roam.

His legs wur heavy, his pockets lite;
SEE Tim to himself; The laborers lot
I'm not regardin' with delite.

When down forninst him on the ground
He spied bundle nately tied.
1t wondered Tim what he had found;
He picked it up wild cautious hand
Begorra! 1t might be dynamitel
But when he saw twas Bull Dog, thin
His heart went thumpin wild delite.
Bedad, sez Tim, it's the laborin' man
Is the lucky mortal after all
It's him as hes his eyes cast down
Picks dainties up the rich let fall;
For if I'd had me wish this mite,
Twas Bull Dog that most desired;
IT'S Bull Dog fine cut gives delite
To man that's falin' wake and tired.
When dimes are scarce and Bull Dog gone
IT'S thin the world gets lookin' blue;
But not a rason for complaint
Has a man wild Bull Dog as his chew.
And Tim was right beyond doubt,
For chewers now on every hand
Agree with Tim that Bull Dog rs
The finest chew in all the land.
