Governor seymour. Financial Views

In view of the fact that Governor SEY-
mouR has become the standard-bearer of
the Democratic party, the points Of the pow
erful speech which he delivered about two
weeks ago, at the Cooper Institute mass
meeting in New York, assume an interest
and Importance far beyond what has hith-
erto been attached to them. The speech
was mainly directed to the consideration of
the financial Condition of the country. Gov
ernor SEYMOUR claims, in the first place,
that the moneyed and tax policy of the Rad
ical party has produced sectional jealousies
between the Eastern and Western States,
divided the Union into debtor and cred
itor States, given to labor and business
debased currency and to the untaxed
bondholder sterling coin, and that this de-
probation and oil the jarring interests con-
nected with the subject, are due to the dis
honor of our national credit, sinking the
value of bonds, greenbacks and bank notes,
and which is itself the result Of the un-
heard-of extravagance and wastefulness Of
those now dominating the government.
Governor SEYMOUR supports his position by
an Irresistible array of facts and figures, as
well as reasonings He shows that since
July l, 1865, about three months after the
surrender of Gen. LEE, up to July l, 1868, the
cost of the government will be, by official
reports and estimates, $50, 800, ,208, and
that up to July 1, 1869, by the estimate of
the chairman of the Committee of Ways
and Means, it will be S197, ,97S, S,4G6, making
for four years $1,OlS, 363,574 which enor-
nous amount does not include one cent paid
or to be paid for interest or principal Of the
public debt. The public expenditures du-
ring the four years before the war, leaving
out interest on debt, were S256, 226, Ala,
showing that the Radicals have spent in
time of peace four dollars where one was
spent in the four years before the war.
The growing cost Of government, Governor

CHAR Es TON.
SATURDAY MORNING JULY ii, 1858.
Let Charleston Speaks.

The return of the South Carolina delega-
ton from the National Democratic Conven-
tion should be signalized by the holding Of
mass ratification meeting in this, the
commercial and financial capital Of the
State. Our tacit, though hearty approval
of the nomination of SEYMOUR and BLAIR'
as the standard.bearers of the National
Democracy is not sufficient; nor is it enough
that we esteem most highly the dignifed
manner in which our delegates discharged
their grave and important duties. Our dele
gates are entitled to o public recognition of
their services, and, above all, thegrand and
stirring platform ofthe Democratic party of
the United States-our new declaration of
independence-demands at the hands Of our
people such an approval and ratification as
con only be given by mass meeting whose
voice shall be heard from the waters of:the
Cooper and Ashley to the mountains of the
Carolina border.
The struggle before US is hard one, and
the victory can only be won By unrepitting
exertion, and by kindling those fires Of en-
Lhusiasm which ceased to burn when the
soldiers Of. the. Confederacy sheathed their
blunted swords. Our opponents soy that
the people of South Carolina are cowed,
that three years of military despotism have
made them women in strength, and less
than women in fortitude and patriotic eour-
age. This we can now disprove, for the
time for waiting and for silence is past.
There is no longer reason why our tongues
should be tied. We may speak with bold
hess and act with determination Carolina
has clasped her hands and bowed her head
for thrice twelve anxious months, but now
we may strike the shackles from our limbs,
clear the scales from our eyes, and 60 heart
and soul into that contest upon whose re-.
suit, depends our lives, liberties and for
tunes -, - f.,,-
. This contest cannot better be inaugural
ed than BY holding mass meeting in this
city, at which our delegates may address
the Charleston Democracy upon the potiti-
cal situation. Their visit to the National
Convention has brought them in contact
with the most eminent statesmen in the
land. They will be able to give us words
Of counsel, and, we believe. of good cheer,
and then every man present may pledge
himself to the work of our political regener-
alton by joining in unanimous ratification
of the nominations and platform Of the
National Democratic party.

EXPLOSIONS FROM DEFICIENCY OF WATER
Low water in steam boilers is no unusual occur
renee Imminent danger frequently arises from this
cause ard 1t cannot be too forcblg impressed upon
the minds OF engineers, that there is no part OF the
apparatus constituting the mountings o. ooler
which REQUIRES greater attention thai nat which sup

er every part of the metal exposed to the action Of
the fire should be in immediate contact with the wa
fer and when propSr provision fs made TO maintain
the water at sufficient height above the parts so
exposed, accidents can never occur from this cause.
should the water however. get low from defects In
the pump and the surface over the fire become over
heated then even at the ordinary working pressure
there is great danger Of al explosion There Is no
OCCASION under such circumstances TO search furth
er for the cause OF explosion, from the fact that the
material when overheated to certain degree loses
about hresixths OF its strength, and s therefore,
unable to resist the internal pressure. When 3
boiler becomes short Of water the first thing usual
teinly remedies the deficiency. but increases the
danger, and may lead to the explosion ofthe boisr.

SEYMOUR grants, might justify the Radicals
in spending two dollars where one was
spent formerly, which would make $751;
425, ,S2s, but they have spent $5O5, 910,646
beyond this, which, ifsit had been used to
pay the debt, would have. Carried the
national credit to the highest point, ta1-
payers would be relieved, and mechanics,
laborers and pensioners be paid in money
as good as coin. For q considerable period
succeeding the war, it was of the utmost
Importance that our vast currency should
be contracted, and through the persistent
efforts of Secretary McCULLocH that policy
was enforced until within few months,
and large reduction was effected. The
volume of currency is probably not at pres
ent too great, under healthful state Of
business, and Governor SEYMOUR rightly
holds now that it is to be improved By con-
tracting the expenses of the government,
which cannot be expected from the Repub-
licar policy, which has sunk the value OF
our currency more than eight per cent. in
the past two years, and to the continuance
Of which that party is pledged. He main
tains that with the removal of the party In
power, and the. success Of their political
opponents, economy, low taxes and SOL
vency will prevail, greenbacks in due time
will be at par, and the whole question OF re-
pudiation settled to the general satisfaction.
The facts are that the political elements
dominating the country the past three years
Of peace have not accomplished the things
needed to restore the national credit and
the consequent prosperity Of the people,
relieving them from the burdens of excess
sive taxation, attendant upon national a8-
travagance. The country, therefore, now
loses hope in those who have 80 disappoint-
ed it, and the people naturally look about
to see whence the needed relief may come.
They will accept it from any quarter whence
it is likely to be obtained, and will cast
themselves upon any organization or ally
themselves with any movement worthy Of
their confidence for the attainment of the
great end in view. S

The valedlctory OF E1-aovernor orr.


The valedictory address Of Ex-Governor
Oar, published this morning, is addressed
"To the People of South Carolina" and
mainly consists. of an explanation of the
reasons which governed his political course
during the last two years. As Governor
Orr can no longer profess to speak "For
the People of South Carolina" it is not ne
cessary to criticise either his own opinions
or the advice he offers to others, and it
would be neither just nor generous to speak
harshly at this time of one who, whatever
his political errors, has devoted the whole
of his great ability to the service Of the
State.
