1 Jas. T. Bacon. ThosJ. Adams. EDITORS. E. KEESE, Corresponding Editor. Edf-e?eld, S. C., Nov. 30,1882. Address or the Stale Executive Committee. This week we publish a late ad dress of the State Democratic Execu tive Committee. We hope all our readers will give it the attention it deserves. The Committee has cer tainly done an extremely sensible thing in recommending the conver u-v sion of the Democratic Clubs into - permanent organizations. The next *? election-involving a Presidential con j test-will be one of vital importance to us-more vital indeed than tongue can well tell. It were infinitely bet ter to keep steadfastly organized. Their Doty. It will clearly be the duty of our Senator and Representatives, when they take their seats in the General Assembly, to work for an appropria tion sufficient to pay the Commission ers, Managers and Clerks of Election, and all olher necessary expenses in y, connection therewith. The Spekership of (ne House. The Speakership of the House of j Repiesentatives, which hr : been held so brilliantly for three successive terms by the Hon. J. C. Sheppard, of j Edgefield, is now vacant. The strug gle for this place will be sharp. The most prominent candidates are James Simons, of Charleston, George John stone, of Newberry, E. B. Murray, of Anderson, and Knox Livingstone, of Marlboro. The Transit of Venus. After being industrial, musical ard artistic in Charleston this week, let Edgefield be scientific next week, and send a delegation to Aiken to see the Transit of Venus. This great astron omical event ?B to take place on . Wednesday the Ctn December. Thc delegation of German astronomers and the delegation of French astron omers are both in the field, vieing with each other. Both delegations, if we mistake not, have erected ob servatories; and their telescopes and instruments, lately arrived, are said to weigh thousands of pounds. We outside people, so it is said, will ob serve nothing strange, as it is only by means of powerful .instruments that the Transit can be seen. The transit occurred hst in 1874-eight years a^o. Before that, it had not occur red in 120} years. And after this, it will not occur again until the ex piration of 125} years. The Greenville News warmly adi vocates the election of E. B. Murra/. Esq., of Anderson, to the Speadajy, fcHWt?jML^^jHouse of Repr?sent?t! ?er. ^P^th? following from the News: "He r will safely undergo the keenest scru tiny of his character and qualifica tions, and we do not know of a test that can be properly applied to one asking the office which he will not ?atiaiy. His natural ability is un questioned, his integrity beyond ques tion or doubt, and his long service as a member of the Legislature has giv en him an experience in parliamenta ry law and usage which, combined with Hs well known characteristics of close, careful study, energy and diligence, makes hie equipment for the work of the Speakership com plete and perfect." Meeting of Co. " I," 24th S. C. V. The 8urvivor8 of this gallant old Company held an informal meeting in one of the rooms of the ADYER TISER building on Saturday the 18th November. Mr. E. Keese was cho sen chairman, and Mr. S. C. Cartledge Secretary. Seventeen members were present. The Roll of the old Com pany was read and approved. On motion of Capt J. P. Blackwell, a Committee of seven, consisting of J. P. Blackwell, Lieut. L. J. Miller, S. C. Cartledge, T. P. Robertson, Jesse Prince and J. W. Delaughter, was ' appointed to prepare a roll for the Adjutant and inspector General. Co. " K" was requested, by resolution, to unite with Co. "I" at their next meeting-December 28th, 1882. On motion of Capt. Blackwell, the Rev. E. Capers, as well as the commis3ion d officers, was requested to be with 'I', on that day. On motion, a of thanks was extended to Mr. mas J. Adams, Esq., for the use f the ADVERTISER room. Mr. Jabez Lanier was the first man and Mr. Press Anderson waB the sec ond, lost by this company. Much in teresting information was elicited; and at the next meeting of the Com pany we hope to give it to our read ers in detail. The meeting adjourn ed to meet on Thursday, 28th Decem ber, 1882. Andrew J. Hammond, Esq., was the first Captain; L. B. Wever, sec ond; James Tillman, third. Compa nies "I" and "K" were both from _ efield, and both in the 24th Reg iment. Jabez Lanier died first; Pres ton Anderson, second. Capt. James Tillman, Marbry Lanham and Oscar Quarlea, of Co. u I," nave died since tue surrender. The Rev. Ellison Ca pers, at first, was Lieutenant-Colonel of the 24th Regt, and afterwards Colonel; and he was made a Briga dier towards the close of the la e war. C. H. Stevena, of Charleston, was the first Colonel, and A. J. Hammond the first Major of the 24th. The absence of ouraelvesin Colum bia, and the unexpected detention of Mr. Keese in Aiken, prevented our reporting this interesting meeting in our last issue. Col. O? F. ( heatham Molds tbe Clerk's Ofiice. The question involvirg the legality of the elections held for clerk of court, sheriff and^broner in several of the counties of the State came up before the State Board of Canvassers in Columbia on Friday last. Some time ago A irney-General Youmans announced it as his opinion that un der the statute no election could be held this year for clerk of court in any other counties than Berkeley. In epite of this opinion elections were held in Hampton, Edgefield, Horry and Kershaw Counties for clerk of court. In Edgefield County Mr. James C. Williams, in Hampton County, Mr. W. C. Causey, in Hon y County, Mr. Julius Anderson, and in Kershaw County, Mr. C. Clyburn, were candi dates for clerk of the court at the re cent election and were declared elect ed by the county canvassers. Before the board of cauvassers on Friday, Clyburn appeared in person, Messrs. Williams and Cheatham, the contesting parties in Edgefield Coun ty, in person and by counsel, and Mr. Anderson, of Horry County, by coun sel; Mr. McGowan Simkins appear ing for Mr. Williama, and Col. F. W. McMa.-'ter for Mr. Anderson. In presenting the case of his cli ent Mr. Simkins contended that the Constitution fixed the term of office for clerk of court at four years and that the Legislature could rot inter fere with it. Col. Cheatham, the present incumbent of the office of clerk of court for Edgefield County, was elected in 1878. Col. McMaster argued for the Hor ry contestant upon the same general line, and contended that the Legisla ture could not change the term of of fice of officers elected under the Con stitution without violating their con stitutional rights. After discussing the points involv ed in these cases, the board of can vassers disposed of the matter by adopting a resolution to the effect that elections for clerk of court in counties other than Berkeley were not held in accordance with the stat ute laws and are illegal. The cases arising out of the elec tions for clerk of court in Horry and Edgefield Counties will very likely be taken to the Supreme Court and argued upon the constitutional ques tions involved. The board of can vassers were not unanimous in their views upon the questions involved. TABULATED STATE RETURNS. Tbe County Constitutional Amend ment Defeated. The State Board of Canvassers have been engaged for two weeks past in canvassing the election returns from the different Counties. It ie un Bjfc^dthattheconstitutionalamend ? len^WflJraB?ftM-tt?.W' counties has anent relating^^^^BHMkhousand been defeated by about tent^ments jiajority. The other two amen|wJ| electors on account of conviction for crime, and the holding. of the State and Federal election at different times, have been carried by large majorities. The tabulated returns of the votes cast in the various counties for the candidates for State officers gives the following results: For Governor : Hugh S. Thompson,. 67,158 J. Hendrix McLai e, 17,719 Thompson's majority, 49,439 For Lieutenant-Governor : John C. Sheppard, 07,087 Robert D. White, 17,278 Sheppard's majority, 49,809 For Secretary of State : J. N.

Richardson, G4.660 W. H. Stanton, 13,097 Richardson's majority, For Comptroller-General : W. E. Stoney, Simeon Corley. Stoney's majority, 51,626 For Sup't. of Education: Asbury Coward, 64.71G I. D. Durham, 13,080 Coward's majority, 51,636 For Adjt. and Insp'r. General: A. M. Manigault, 64,706 Julius DeJongh, 13,061 Manigault's majority, 51,645 It will be seen from this statement that Col. Thompson ran ahead of the State ticket, receiving 71 more votes than Sheppard and 2,437 more votes than Mr. W. E. Stoney, who received the next largest vote among the can didates for State officers to that polled for Mr. Sheppard. Gen. Manigault received a larger majority over his Greenback opponent than any other man on the Democratic ticket, bis vote being 51,645 in excess of that polled for his opponent. The official canvass of the votes polled for Congressman in the Second district gives the annexed results: Tillman. Brayton. Duncan.
