There is no question that Geh.

Oi'augcburg'lor Governor, and that
lit! will receive the unanimous sup
port of our delegation in the June
Convention, if the nomination should
be made at that time.
Gen. Ilngood'a business talent,
insiniy qttalities and quiet unobtru
sive manner wins for him the suppoit
of the people.
11 is recent letter declining an in
vitation to address the Democratic
Club of Ncwbcrry is in perfect keep
ing with his character. Me is not
w illing to assume the role of a seek
er of the olllce as the acceptance of
such an invitation would imply.
We believe that there is nothing
to pr?vont the nomination of (Jen.
Hftgo?d for Governor, unless it
should be the centering of delegates
ou a third candidate on the ground
of the harmony of the party being
impaired by the bitterness of the ad
herents of the two candidates now
most prominently before the Slate.
Nor do we imagine thai such a
contingency would aviso for Gen.
Gary has proved himself to be a man
of genuine patriotism und magna
nimity; and believe, before he would
see the harmony of the party eudan
gored that lie would,Avith his charae
teristic manliness and fairness, en
dorse 'Gem Ilngood in the Convene
tion. and WO urge his friends to unity.
We do not anticipate the least dan
ger to the party unity in any event.

THE lilOli S( ilOOI.'oF CHARLESTON
The City Council of Charleston
has empowered the Trustees of the
High School to sell the school build
ing in Society street, and purchase
the magnificent King mansion and
grounds for the purposes' of the
school.
The King mansion is admirably
adapted for the school, and although
the obi school building is a line one,
the change will be an immense im
provement.
We find a natural interest in this
old school, and we are delighted to
hear of its llatteriug prospects.
The King mansion was recently
sold at public saloon very reasona
ble terms, and the gentleman pur
chasing it, bearing of the desire of
the Trustees to secure it, magnani
mously turned it overto the Trusties
at his bid, although ho was offered a
much higher price.
a TERlTlBLE scene.
A most unfortunate and thrilling
accident took place in Atlanta. On.,
one day last week.
It seems that a number of young
ladies ami gentlemen had assembled
at the Opera Mouse for a public ex
hibition. Some ten ladies, just be
fore the commencement of the per
formance, wore assembled in the
dressing room. They were attired
in llowillg talctoitH with wings person
ating angels. The wings of one of
the young ladies happened to touch
a gas jit. when the (lames soon com
pletely enveloped her. In her excite
ment and moving about, the lire was
communicated to others in the room
and the result was that some four or
live of flic performers were most se
verely burned. IV?nil the effect of
which two of the unfortunate ones
have since died.
All the help possible was rendered
by gentlemen present, but it was to
little purpose. We trust that it may
be a wholesome warning to all to be
careful under similar circumstances.
One of the young ladies. Miss
May rant, was a native of Charleston.
the KELL00-SP0PF0R1) cask.
The recent speech of Senator
Humpton on this subject in the Sen
ate- has awakened a fresh interest iu
t his ( out ro\ ersy.
It will be remembered that in 1 s7*?
Judge Spollord was elected Senator
fr.un Louisiana by the legally elected
Nichol's Legislature; and at the same
time Ivel log was sen! tip by the bogus
and fraudulent Packard Legislature.
The United Stales Senate being, at
thai time, Republican by a small
majority, Kol log so raped in and the
legally elected Senator was not ad
milled.
'! he spotless k.-ilog has kept his
s;a: ever since, until a short lime
back the Sennit1 appointed a Com
mittee l" impure into bis tenure.
Tin- ('onmdttce, after investigation
into the merits of the case, reported,
recommending that the usurping
Kellog be uuseated, nnd that Judge
Spollord, who was elected by the
legal Legislature, now recognized
and existing, be seated.
This report immediately created a
howl. The cry of bad policy was
he : rd on every side.
Mr. Hill,of Georgia, made a most
I able and convincing speech in sup
port >>f the (.'oinhiiltee's report.
I Ma IV Democrats, however, have tak
en an opposite position, and among
them Senator Hampton. They think
i' is bad polit y, ami that the Uemo
I ei als will lose by it.
Sei-siior Hampton, in his recent
oreal speech, takes the ground that
the in.itter was s< itled by a previous
Sei nie < ominillee and that it cannot
now b,- n opened; that if a Senator's
sea! is liable to \tV unsettled every
lime the Senate changes its political
c inplexioit there can be nothing
p ?rmnncnl and sLihlc.
It seems lo us. however, thai ibis
is ll w long light ill w hich to \ i? iv the
nuttier. We agree with Senator
Hampton that "we should rise above
pari\ ." and for this reason wo can
not condescend lo the ideal that the
T'o-o)...! t. ari 111. <:. c i i ? ?>? Mi. lielloi'
because be is a Republican, but they
are proposing to unseat him because
he is not the legally elected .Senator
from Louisiana, and Judge Spollord
is, and no State should be deprive*!
of its right to a Senator of its own
selection [by the arbitrary will of a
partisan Senate.
[f Ivel log is not Senator?and we
would ask, where is the Legislature
that elected him??then he ought not
to be allowed to hold his seat, no
matter what may be the dictates >f
policy, or what may be the conse
quences to the Democratic party. We
cannot endorse the sentiment or
idea that a Senators seat should be
so linn and unshaken. His scat is
always subject to good behavior, and
fraud is the worse kind of behavior
that we can conceive, of, aud ought
never to be connived at, much less
tolerated, in the United States Sen
ate.
The Columbia "Register" says:
"No one who knows Senator Hamp
ton will, for a moment, permit him
self to doubt the Senator's sincere
and conscientious discharge of what
he conceived to be his duty. Not a
few, however, will deprecate with us
the great Carolina Senator's concep
tion of 'the fixed and immutable
principle of justicel by which be
finds it necessary, in good con
science, to protect and tiefend the seat
of a Senatorial rogue who had never
been elected by any recognized or
lawful Legislature of any recognized
State of the Union; nnd who had
been seated by the sheer power of a
former partisan Senate, which, taking
advantage of si bare majority, seated
Ivel log against all right, reason, jus
tice or truth, and despite the solemn
prolest of every Senator of the oppo
sition* who denounced, it at the time
as the most unrighteous, scandalous
and abusive exercise of party domi
nance."
FIREMAN'S TOURNAMENT.

A grand fireman's tournament will
take place in Coluurldn, during the
sitting of the State Convention, on
the 1st of June, I^ive companies
from abroad will attend and partici
pate in the celebration. We would
i like to see ?rnngebtjrg represented
by uUncle Joe." It will be n gala

Cent lernen, what's the aim of this
incessant abuse of old man Tilden?
You have killed him as a Presiden
tial candidate, so what else do you
want? lie was elected President of
the United States, and if he was
traded otf or tricked out of his seat
il was no fault of his. The s-in and
cowardice was not in his submitting
to the Electoral Commission, but in
Democrats permitting-such a fraud
to be created. As a Presidential
candidate he is now a dead cock in
the pit, so can't we let llitu alone and
harp on another si ring.

For Juclgo of Probat e.
Editor Orangeburg 'limes:
Please announce Mr. Charles I?. (Jlovcr
as a candidate for the above office. It is
useless to .?ay anything in his favor, as his
ability is already displayed by the manner
in which he has discharged the duties of
that position during his term of service.
We further urge our c laim in his behalf on
the ground, thai the incumbent of ihn'
office ought to have considerable experience
i i the practice of law, ax iheoflico is not
ministerial, hut is beyond a doubt, judicial.
Any persons, desiring to satisfy themselves
on this point, can do so by referring to the
Constitution of our State, ''Article-1, .Judi
cial Department, Sec. 20." Also Revised
Statute-, pages 57- to f>78, '' Title 4, Pro
bate Court," mid to the 44 Rules of Court."
In nominaling Mr. (Mover through your

abide by the decision of the Democratic
