RoUsING REPUBLICANS.
Brayton Calls on Members OF His Party to
Register.

COLUMBIA, S. c., April 18.-The
following is a portion Of rather sen.
sational circular which has appeared
here signed by Ellery NJ. Brayton, a
member Of the national republican
committee:
"Republicans, hasten to register.
Only three registration days remain.
1t is the duty of every Republican
who is not registered or who has lost
his certificate, OF changed his resi-
dence to 90 to the supervisor at the
County Court House, on the first
Monday in May, June or July and OBJ
tain his certificate. The approaching
election will be one Of vast Importance
and great opportunity to Republicans.
The scheme to set aside the State con-
stitution and make a new one should
instantly arouse voters. 1t is fraught
with danger and involves momentous
changes among which probably are the
annulling of the two per cent. tax for
schools, fixing an educational and
property qualification for elective
franchise, establishing the chain gang
and whipping post and other obnox-
ious provisions. The new constitu-
tion will not be submitted to the peo-
pie for ratification, 80 that the only
chance to defeat the scheme will be at
the next election. The hostility and
disintegration among Democrats af-
fords a chance for Republicans to ex-
ercise their political rights. Do not
throw the opportunity away. If re-
miss or recreant, it may be the last
chance many will have to vote in
South Carolina. The whole country
is sick of Democratic rule and inca
pacity. A revolt against the deplora-
BILE condition into which it has plung
ed the country and the distress ard
poverty brought upon the people is
now sweeping over the land. The
strongholds of democracy in the
North have been overthrown and the
South is doomed to break up. The
principles and policy of the Republi-
can party are being vindicated. In
this State the way is open to elect
several Republican Congressman and
defeat Democratic legislation as well
as to preserve constitutional rights
from destruction. ;"

Warning From Brayton.

It appears that the Republicans
propose to complicate the already
complicated situation in this State by
making an attempt to develop their
voting strength. How much that
strength is nobody knows. There has
not been serious contest at general
election in this State since 1878-six-
teen years ago. Great numbers Of
colored voters are disfranchised, but
great numbers Of white voters are in
the same condition. 1t is impossible
to know which race could show the
largest number of legal registration
certificates if they were called fer.
The subject is not understood as it
should be in the upper counties of
South Carolina. North of Columbia
the colored vote may amount to little,
but south of that city it may be enor-
nous. Down in the rice field districts
and on the Sea Islands where at some
precincts negroes poll hundred to
one tremendous vote may be rolled up.
With Republican Congress at least
three districts would be in danger and
a determined effort in Williamsburg,
Georgetown, Beaufort, Colleton and
even Orangeburg and Sumter might
result in Republican delegations to
the Legislature.
We have been warning the "domi-
nant element against this very dan
ger. It is time we white people were
learning some sense. The solid black
vote in the lower counties backed and
sustained by disaffected whites may
gives us very serious trouble to over.
come up here. The policy Of perse-
cutting men because they are not in
sympathy with Governor Tillman is a
bad and dangerous one. The time
may come when we will need all of
them to help US pull through. It is a
poor plan to give such men the idea
that they can have no hope of politi-
cal advancement or recognition inside
their own party. Human nature is
weak and passion, greed and ambition
are strong. Where one man will stand
by his party on principle regardless Of
personal ambitions and factional ami
'mosities, ten may stand back when
they are needed or give their influence
and active aid to having the black vote
cast and counted.
We have been drifting along fight
ing and prosecuting each other and
abusing and weakening the Democratic
party and administration forgetful OF
the facts that there is black vote,
that with little white backing it can
be made very serious menace and
that with one more Republican Con-
gress and President the South will re-
ceivc attention which it will not like
and be put under force bill. A
united white population can defy even
such an election bill as was narrowly
escaped in the last Republican Con-
gress, but with divided whites such a
bill would be cruelty effective.
The dominant element" is in full
control and is running things to suit
itself. It will be wise to heed the
warning given by Brayton's s circular
and to remember that the colored
voter is not yet entirely out of poll
tics.-Greenville Neacs.

The trade in agricultural imple-
plements is reported to have been very
good in southeastern Russia for the
season just past. There was special
activity of reapers, on account of the
scarcity of hands, the outbreak of
cholera having driven them away.
Over four thousand reapers were sold,
of which 1000 were American, the
remainder, Of Russian make, finding
sale solely because they were cheaper.
The hay crop was very poor, and only
about two hundred mowers and five
hundred hayrakos were sold, all being
of American manufacture.

a New Story Of Gen. Grant.

In Blue and Gray for April appears
a letter from Bryant S. Parker, form
erly of South Carolina regiment, in
which he relates the following incident,
characteristic of the great generals
quiet kindness
''In one hard fought battle in Vir-
ginia, in which my regiment lost heav-
lily in killed and wounded, Twas taken
prisoner with lot of others of our
regiment. We were placed under
guard at the rear, and all were search
ed. I had in my pocket my Masonic
demit. Next morning the guard came
and told me that I was wanted at
Gen. Grant headquarters. thought
nv time to die had surely come, and
that I would not see Sallie and the
children any more. was sure the
general was going to have me shot. l
was the only one of our boys who was
wanted at the headquarters, and the
guard told me to move on. | soon
reached the tent and was told to 60
inside. was frightened almost to
death. My teeth ratified, my knees
shook, and the perspiration was stream
ing from my face, although the day
was cold. However, I entered and
the tent was closed, and was alone
with the commander-in.chief of the
United States forces. He saw that L
was so frightened that l could hardly
speak, and arising from his camp
stool, he shook hands with me and
asked me to be seated. He was so
kind and good that I soon felt at
home. After talking pleasant y for q
time he asked me to what regiment l
belonged and where my home was.
He then picked up my demit from q
table and asked me if it was mine. |
replied that it was. He then asked
me if I was a Mason, and [ soon con-
vinced him of that. He then went to
the table and wrote my parole, gave
me some money and told me to go
bone to Sallie and the children. The
guard was called, and with a hearty
5good bye," I departed from General
Grants headquarters, the happiest
man in the army. General Grant was
a mighty fine gentleman, whom l al
ways remember in my prayers. :.

such generous feast could not be
found outside of Florida. In fact,
the winter fare in Florida eZcels that
of anywhere else. I have been here
since the 18TH Of December and we
have not been without fresh grown
vegetables since I came. For three
months we have had Strawberries
nearly every day for dinner, and still
they come. We had strawberries on

story pies and cake all mixed upj and
chicken and eggs and etceteras too tc-
dious to mention. We spent a happy
day and when our boat touched the
wharf we were told to keep our seat
for a few minutes. Mr.. Anglin, Of
Atlanta, was one Of our party and he
got out his kodac and stood on the
