ne had ascertained the whole truth. The
Democratic party in South Carolina to-
day was divided as to whether it should
nominate candidate for governor, or
accFpt Governor Chamberlain and sup
port him when nominated by the Re-
publicans. His course has been approx

presume that he was an honest man and
told the truth. He Patterson knew of

south by Democrats 10 carry elections,
ana mad no doubt IS to the truth of all
these statements. The other branch of
congress had been engaged all session
IN q wild hunt for Republican thieves,
and they had caught some. He was glad
OF 1t. He would be the last man to at.
tempt to protect Republican thieves,
and he hoped the Democrats would
catch them. The Republicans were all
willing to aid the Democrats In catching
Republican thieves and Democratic
murderers. He then spoke of the Ham,
burg trouble, and said he regretted to see
that many Of the most respectable men
OF that State were charged with being
implicated in that affair.
Before Senator Patterson concluded,
he yielded to motion for executive ses-
sion.
Senator Sherman, from the commit
tee on finance, reported, with amend
ments, the house concurrent resolution
in regard to the appointment OF coma
mission to inquire into the change
which has taken place in the relative
value Of gold and silver, the policy Of q
restoration Of double standard in the
country, etc. Placed on calendar.

session, and soon after adjourned.
