Meeting of District Central Club.
The regular meeting of the District
Central Club of the Democracy of New
berry District, was held in the Court
House on Sale-day. Col. Moorman pre
siding.
The Club in conformity with a resolu
tion of the State Central Club, to furnish
to the State Executive Committee the
names of suitable persons, to be laid by
that committee before the Governor for
appointment, as commissioners of elec
tions, was considered and complied with.
The following gentlemen were appointed:
J. T. Peterson, H. H. Kinard, E. P. Lake,
Wm. Ray, Thos. W. Holloway and Jo
siah Stewart.
It was resolved, that whereas, it is im
portant, that the offices of commissioners
and managers of elections, magistrates
and constables, should be filled by intel
ligent, prudent mnen, we recommend the
citizens of the District to accept these
positions for the purpose of securing
peace and relieving our citizens of hard
ships, which would be entailed upon the
District if ignorant and unprincipled
men fill them. -
A. C. Garlington, W. G. Mayes a:d
W. Y. Fair were appointed as delegates
to State Central Club, at its called meet
ing to be held on the 15th inst., in Co
lumbia, at 7 o'clock, p. M.
It was resolved, That the local Clubs
who had not sent up their quota of funds
be requested to send the same by the
15th irst.
It was resolvtd, That the Central Club
of Newberry District meet on the 17th
inst., at eleven o'clock a. in., in the Court
riouse, to consider matters of great im
portance to the success of the party, at
which time all the local clubs of the Dis
trict are expected to be fully represented,
without fail.
It was resolved, That the Treasurer of
this Club remit to the State Central Club,
the sum of $50.
After the regular business of the meet
ing had been gone through with, the
President introduced the Hon. D. Wyatt
Aiken, district canvasser, who enter
tained the Club and the assembled Dem
ocracy with a stirring and -eloquent
speech, which was received with great
enthusiasm and applause.
After Col. Aiken concluded his re
marks, Gen. Garlington asked the atter.
tion of the meeting while he made a state
ment somewhat personal, but having a
bearing upon the political situation. He
stated, that the speech which he had
made on last Sale-day had been made
the subject of a letter addreesed to Gov.
Scott, under the signature of Mathew
Gray ; in which letter incendiary senti
ments had been attributed to him; that
he had counselled violence ; advised the
people to arm and break up Radical meet
ings, &c. Gen. G. stated that it was
well known to this community, that he
had never advised such conduct, either
in his public speeches, or in private con
versations ; that he bad so written to a
friend who put his letter in the bands of
Gov. Scott. That afterwards Mathew
Gray had repudiated the,- letter, denied
its authorship and any, knowledge of it.
That thereupon he wrote to his friend
requesting him to call on Gov. Scott for
the original, so that he could find out the
author, but that Gov. Scott said that be
was sorry that he could not furnish him
with the letter as he had given it to one
W.hittamore. Gen. G. pronounced the
statements contained1 in the forged letter
atterly false.
ead and Digest.
D. Wyatt Aiken publishes in the Ab
beville Banner two documents, the first
an extract from the Monthly Bureau re
port, by the Agent DeKnight, "which
exhibits" according to his infamous re
port, "18 cases in which violence was
done" to innocent Samnbo, and the "half
of which are not reported," the villian.
The other, and which we publish that
every man may read, is a verbatim letter
from Abbeville G. H., to a colored man
in Columbia. Read it !

The Camilla, (Ga.) Riot.
"The Governor of Alabama is certnin
ly not far wrong in his notion that more
national troops are unnecessary in that
State. The presence of fifty thousand
troops in Alabama would not be so effec
tive in keeping the peace as the Camilla
fight will prove. Now that the whole
history of that event is seen, it is unde
niably clear that the negroes provoked
the disturbance. They marched with
their Radical leaders, with music and
arms in a quiet town, comporting them
selves in an offensive manner, making a
bullying expedition, and the manner of
their conduct was met as if it was real.
The negroes will see by this example
that it is not yet safe to bully white men,
and that will prevent a collision."
So talks the New York Herald, and
the Herald man is about right. We
have no need of troops to keep the peace,
but a riddance of the diabolical incendi
ary crew of scala ags and carpet-bag
gers, who are agging on the deluded ne
groes to every kind of violence. The
only regret in this Camilla riot is, that
the rascally leaders were not shot in the
melee. The Hon. B. H. Hill, while in
New York, addressed a long letter to the
Tribune in which it was made clear,
that the white people had been advised
of the State of affairs existing for some
time previous to this riot, and had stren
uously endeavored to control and prevent
it, but the the influeice of white Radi
cal incendiaries was too great to stem.
The negroes were advisc d, and urged to
arm themselves, and to drill; that the
object of the Democratic party was to
enslave them; and to get ready to fight,
and to use torches as well as guns.
Maddened, infuriated, blinded by this
advice, they rushed on, a band of four
hundred, with arms, music, banners, and
white leaders, on the little town of Ca
milla, of not more than two hundred in
habitants all told. They were met out
side of town and again remonstrated
with, and advised to lay down their
arms, but they blindly pushed on' and
into town, and an accidental shot being
fired by a drunken white man, the ne
groes fired a volley into a crowd of white
men. About twenty-five citizens imme
diately returned the fire, killing and
wounding a few, when the four hundred,
still led by their white leaders, took to
the woods. And thus ended the Camil
la riot, and thus will all such riots end.
The Herald is right "that t,he negroes
will see it is not yet safe to bully white
men."
We desire peace, while our enemies
seem determined to bring orgecollisions.
In North Carolina it is urged by Radical
leaders to throw their arms around the
necks of defenseless women, when their
husbands are absent ! Just as would
have been done at Camilla, if the white
men had been driven off. The time for
organization and preparation has come,
and we cannot dodge it.
BURKE's WEEKLY FORt BoYs AND GIRL.
-This paper seems to be as popular at
the North as in the South, if we are-to

the 16th and 17th o'f September, which
is said to be the earliest migration ob

regarded, we suppose, as only a passing
old snap."
[For the Herald]
The importance of the approaching
election, the interest felt in its success
ful termination, and the hope of being
the means of doing something to further
that cause, will, I trust, be sufficient ex
cuse for asking space in your columns,
to make a few suggestions for the con
sideration of those who are qualified by
age and experience to pass verdict upon
their practicability.
Never in our history, nor, perhaps, in
that of any other nation, has so much
been staked upon any election, as upon
that which is soon to decide the destinies
of our own country. Upon that deci
sion depends the very existence of free
govetnment. Such being the case, there
surely is no man "with soul so dead," as
not to feel a deep interest in the issue of
the. Presidential contest.
Let us make that election a political
judgment day, on which every man must
take his place among the sheep, or
among the goats,-among the friends of
his country, or among her enemies. For
the whites, there can be no middle
ground,-no such thing as political neu
trality.
Let each Democratic Club appoint a
Committee to ascertain, at the ballot
box, how each man, white and colored,
votes. Count every secret vote,-Radi
cal. Place the names of any white man
not voting, upon the list, with such
statement. Let these lists be sent to
the Central Executive Committee, and,
after having been carefully arranged, let
them be published together and distribu
ted over the District.
Let each Club pass resolutions pledg
ing its members not to employ any one
who votes the Radical ticket in Novem
ber. Favor those only who vote with
us, or who do not vote at all. By refer
ence to the published list, those in want
of labor could distinguish between friends
and foes, and bestow their favors accord
ingly. We are convinced that no true
Democrat can give support to his politi
cal enemies after the termination of
present contracts. Let the colored man
know these things in time, so that he
may have no excuse for voting against
the interests of the State and of those
from whom he expects employment.
Many colored men no doubt intend vo
ting with the. Radicals, and then, by
pretending repentance, hope to obtain
situations in January. They possess,
"-that glib and oily art, *
To speak and purpose not,"
therefore, be not deceived when they
feign repentance or ignorance. Let them
know that they seal their fate at the bal
lot-box in November, after which comes
no day of grace. He who is your enemy
then, let him be your enemy still.
Democrats of New berry, what say you?
Would not the-publication of such a- list
as mentioned, increase interest in the
election ? Would it not be useful for
future reference ? ertis 'orki Ac
tion, action., action, -is needed, and Caro
lina belongs to the Democracy !
"We must forget all fbelings save the one;
We must resign all passionssaveour purpose;
Wye mast behold no object save our country, -
And only look on death as beautiful,
So that the sacrifice ascend to Heaven,
And draw down freedom on her evermore."
IOTA.
Pomaria, Sep. 26th, 1838.
To the Central District Clubs of South Carolina.
In accordance with the resolution of the
State Central Club, at its late session,
we were instructed to notify the several
District Central Clubs of the Democratic
party of South Carolina, that an extra
meeting of the State Central Club will
be beld in tbe city of Columbia, on the
15tiL day October instant, at 7 o'clock P.
M. And further instructed to urge upon
the District Central Clubs the great im
portance of having a full attendance of
delegates at the extra meeting, as business
of great importance will be brought
before the State Central Club at that
time. In those Districts where there are
no Diktrict Cential Clubs organized, (if
there be any Districts without such,)
we respectfully and earnestly urge upon
the Democratic party the necesity of at
once organizing such clubs, and sending
delegates on the day already indicated ;
and should the time be too limited to
effect this, then that at least a delegation
from the Democratic party of such Dis
tricts be sent up to the extra meeting of
the State Central Club, on the 15th
instant. On behalf of the State Central
Club, we would repeat our earnest soli
citation to the members of the Democra
tic party, to act in the premises promptly,
zealously and in a spirit of harmony,
for the good of the common cause and
the great interest of the State.

UNIVERSITY OF MA RYLAND-We under
stand that Dir. J. J. Chisolmn has been
elected to fill the chair of Military Sur
gery and Pathological Anatomy by the
Faculty of Physic of the University of
Maryland. Dr. Chisolm was for thirteen
years Professor of Surgery in the Medical
College of South Carolina, and is the
author of a work on military suIrgery
which was the text book of surgeons at
the South during the late war. We con
gratulate the University on this new

SELMA, (ALA.,) October 2.-The Dcim
ocratic State Mass Meeting to-day was
more numerously attended than any
other meeting ever held in -the State.
The attendance is estimated at twenty
thousand, of whom three thousand were
negroes. All the counties in Middle
Alabama were represented, the most of
them by Clubs. The procession was two
miles long.
The torchlight procession to-night is a
magnificent affair. Miles of the street
are filled with people. Every principal
house is illuminated, and there are several
Colored Clubs in the procession.
Iri nd case stfiei- your horse to go

RELIGIoUs NoTIcE.-The sacrament of
the Lord's Supper will be administered,
Providence permitting, on next Sabbath
morning, in the Presbyterian Church.
Preaching may be expected on Saturday,
at 11 o'clock, A. M.' and again at 7j
o'clock, P. M.
Mr. D. Mower will accept our thanks
for a batch of interesting Northern pa
pers of late date. Mr. M having just re
tarned from the North after making
heavy purchases of goods is now opening
his elegant stock of fall and winter stock,
and we take pleasure in raferring the pub
lic to that fact.
Mr. Commissioner Silas Johnstone,
Esq., returned on Saturday last, after a
prolonged absence North. His host of
friends welcome his return with pleasure,
and with them we bless the ship that
brought him safely over. We are glad
to see that he suffered nothing from his
sojourn North, and that he is as serene as
before leaving. We thank him for a
batch of late Northern papers.
NEW Goons.-Under the hotel between
Wilson & Wicker and Marshall, a young
aspirant for favor in the person of A.
Singleton, exhibits a choice assortment
of goods in dry goods, domestics, boots,
shoes, hats, clothing and groceries. His
assortment is excellent, and his prices
moderate, for we have made the test. By
the way, we particularly recommend the
Fulton market beef, as a table luxury
unsurpassed.
CoRONER's VERDICT.-The Jury of in
quest, in the case of Johnson Pauley,
freedman, who was found dead near the
Lutheran College on Friday, the 25th of
September, after several sittings from
the 25th of September to the 2nd of Oc
tober, failed to elicit any facts relative to
the killing. The Coroner issued sum
mons and watrants for witnesses who
failed to attend. The verdict rendered
was that said Johnson Pauley came to
his death by a pistol or gun shot, by
person or persons unknown.
SPLENDID CorroN PATCH.-On the old
hotel lot is to be seen a beautiful patch
of cotton, many of the stalks containing
from three to three hundred and fifty
bolls. This remarkable patch shows
what cultivation will do, Gen. H. H. Ki
nard, the successful planter assuring us
that it was worked every five days, and
first manured carefully and well under
his own supervision. More remarkable
is it, t'at it was not planted until the 1st
of June, a heavy yield of barley -having
previously been gathered. If the Gen
eral's plantation is as thrifty and luxuri.
ant as his patches around our town, lhe
will be the best heeled man in the dis
trict,.and will be forced to have larger
and stronger pockets thani ever before to
his breeches, or a portion of the immense
quantity of greenbacks, realized by the
sale of cotton at present prices, will fall
out and get lost. Should he lose any we
trust we will be the happy finder.
SHOE EMFonrIU.-One of the most
pleasing announcements which can be
made, is, that the Shoe house presided
over:by Messrs. McMetts and Griffin is
in full blast for the Fall and Winter.
The boxes, large and small, daily arri
ving for this establishment attract the
attention of passers by. Led by irre
sistable attraction at these signs of some
thing going on, we were forced the other
day to look in on these busy, thriving
merchants, and the goodly array of Boots
and shoes, of every conc~eivable style, and
so beautifully made, which they exhibit
ed, gave us the utmost sati.,faction. The
substantial, neatly fitting walkin'g shoes
for the ladits, to the dainty and elegant
gaiter and slipper, the misseb and child's
shoe in endless variety, gentlemen's and
boy's shoes and gaiters, and brogans for
plantation use. were all seen in vast num
bers. We are pleased to see this evi
dence of success on the part of our shoe
friends, and hope that their sales will be
commensurate with their merits. Their
house has a deserved reputation, from
the character of its past transactions,
and which will ever be sustained by its
proprietors, who are liberal, generous
and upright in all their dealings, both in
their social and business relations.
SALE DAY. - Notwithstanding the
roughness of the weather a large number
of persons were in town on Monday last.
Sales by commissioner were one tract of
805 acres which brought $5,000, one of
136 acres for $300, and a town lot $2040.
Sheriff's sales 900 acres, in different lots,
averaging $5 per acre.
The principal incident of the day was
the conversion of a mule from radical
proclivities to the democratic faith, and
which happened thus. His mule-ship
overhearing a speech made in the Court
House, which was sound in principle,
and so conclusive that the democrats are
the peace party, and that the author of
the letter reflecting so injuriously on Gen.
Garlington and this community, was a
liar, and a dirty scalawag, that on the
conclusion of the speech, like -a sen
sible mule, he kicked up all around, and
cavorted on the side walk, and came
near doing damage to the radical ne
groes on the street. Just here luckily
he became a con.vert to the true faith,
arid denotmncing the scalawag party in a*
vociferous and natural manner, declared
himself for Seymour and Blair in a pro
longed bray. _____
A. HaarRs.-Besides his Fish an
nouncement, is receiving a fine assort
merit of goods, such as French candies,
sardines, pickles, preserved fruits, gro
cerles, dry goods, milinery, &c., &c., all
of which he will open to the public in a
few days, and to which he respectfully
cals attention.
"BETTER LATE THAN NEVER" is an old
axiom and a good one, and we hope our
friends, Capt. McFall and Messrs. Barre
& Son, as well as the dear people, will
excuse our delay in making our congrat
ulations on the opening of the beautiful
assortment of goods now offering' at the
Dry Goods emporium. Capt. Mac is a
trump in buying, and can suit the fancy
of the ladies to a very dot ; his reputa
tion as a man of decided taste and fine
judgment stands pre-eminent. In mat
ters of dress for ladies, or gentlemen
either, his conceptions are faultless, and
the majority of his customers take his
decisions as to color of patterns and
shade of trimmings without a question.
What more can we say of the old Con
federate rebel Captain, except that he is
training up the junior member of the
firm, in the way he should go. John, it
is remembered is a rebel also, fought and
bled in the lost cause, and having borne
the brunt and shock of war, his pleasure
now is to wait upon the ladies, and he
does so with infinite grace. It is
wonder that these two youths are so
popular, and that the Emporium is such
a fashionable resort. The stock of goods
now on hand is of the fullest description
in all the fashionable and late styles.
The Columbia correspondent of the
Charleston News gives loose to his ima
gination as follows:
Hoge, the so-called Associate Justice,
is telling a cock-and-bull story about his
adventures at a Radical pow-wow in
Newberry. He says that he was con
tinually interrupted in his speech by the
few white men in the audience, that they
called him a damned hog, and a num
ber of other condemned articles. He
asked them to desist from their inter
ruptions, and told them that he came
there to make a speech and that he was
going to make it or die. They told him
to die and be d--d, and when he took
the train they followed him and shook
their revolvers at him, and told him he'd
better r.ever come back there again. He
took refuge in the ladies' car, and some
of the men put their heads in the door
and said: "Ladies, take care of your
lunch baskets, there is a hog in the car."
Your readers can judge for themselves
how much of this is true.
