Hod Id n't iho-stuff although' he occasionally ?'I his frionds in u social glass: he accused of having '?backbone," ho couldn't refuso a friend: noth llko conviviality.

He told them that Jwus not a full pledged politician yet, lough Governor of a Statoand exneot fg to bo oloetcd a United State Sena Jr." (Laughtor.) Tho Governor then Expatiated upon tho boautios of a Stato pOlng into tho husinoss of a liquor doa lr and supplying tho pooplo with pure tuff that in tho morning brought no irloks in tho hat. (Applause.) Then 'tho Governor "pulled" from his sldo ^pockot a specimen of tho real Palmetto jag and hold it up to the ga/.o und ad iration of tho ussomblcd olurgy and fair womon who woro there assembled (to deliberate upon tho means of get ting rid of the "stuff" for over and [over. What became of tho Governor's trier fails to report. It (was a fine exhibition of grit, take it till in ull. And now these poor apostlos of [Tompornneo must return to their far p*ff constituency and tell them how the iroat Govornor of tho Great Stute of Fiouth Carolina eures drunkenness by |iolllng to tho inobrlato tho pure "stutT" ?ooased in a nice little Mask to tit the fsido pockot with tho proud -escutcheon I of the Stato ombluzonod thereon.

The Ruf aw in party: tho Democratic party; tho Alliunce party und the 'Antis. It hud boon safer for them if She prohibitionists hud ulsoentered the iflrena. "Some aro born grout, some Pachicvo greatness," but few "have ?greatness thrust upon them." Tt is true ?they by an accident came near to prohi bition in the recent Supreme Court Dls Spoiisary shakebag, but a straight light [und direct assault is the way to win, Iii you go for the centre or either plank. A prominent gentleman in the 1870 Hampton Convention made an of |pctivo speech concluding with about words* "I was born straight, I lavo lived straight and so help me pod, I hope to die straight." But there &oms to have been much politics and any politicians in tho convention. r^?t alarmed for fear of Undouttor *?*!d pcHh?rCw Rim. the convention. Tboso had $bped to pull with tho hare and run Kith the hounds: to deliberate with Jjho' temperance people and yet stand K>r olllco with the Reformers. Tho proposition to run a ticket stampeded torn and thoy withdrew incontinently. Kt would havo been braver to have put ptip a ticket. Now and then by indi rections you may Und directions out; fbut tho straight way is usually the shortost and going round us a rule will fruz/.lo out tho chase. In the mean while it will bo woll to remember whut bravo Bei) Tlllmun told tho Madame.-, and Ministers in New York Harbor last week: Prohibition is Im possible.

If ho had succeeded no doubt ho would ha"0 kept faith with his true men. Just so ai tho meeting the other ovoning of tho so-oallod Democratic Committoo. All Ilaskollitos and Weuv orltes woro welcomed back to tho bosom of tho family. They could not afford to bang up the rogues.

Stanyarne Wilson, of Spartan burg, addressed about seventy-five cit izens at Moores, Waterloo Township, on Saturday last. Our informant re ports that ho posed as a Reformer. As a result of Reform ho Instanced tho building of Clomson und the Woman's College, tho Coosaw litigation the un bottling of Port Royul and tho equali zation of taxation. Ho was not thero to accuso tho old rogimo of rottenness or incipient rottenness. Ho was simply a candidate for Congress and if he couldn't win without charging dishon osty on somebody which would bo false, ho didn't want to go to Congress. This was commondably moderate for the times. Tho mooting passed a resolu tion endorsing Mr. Wilson for Con gress. There wero other spoakers, but it did not crop out what they wero there for or our informant failed to grasp tho point.

It would seom that a candidate Is only required to "promiso" to support the demands.
