GOVERNOR HAMPTON, in his interview

GOVERNOR HAMPTON, in his interview
with the President, yesterday, urged
the necessity of speedy action. The
agricultural interests of South Carolina
are suffering greatly IN consequence OF
the political situation in that State,
The planting season is now at hand, but
no crops have been Put in tie ground,
the planters being unable to obtain
as formerly advances of money
from merchants and factors. Busi-
Less Is paralyized, credit destroyed,
the people disheartened, and the public
peace liable at any moment to be broken
by the uprising OF an outraged populace,
Such is the condition to which Radical
misrule has reduced once prosperous
State.

depended ON his remaining in the
tomb, and with that fact in view the
double watchfulness of the soldiers
is most probable.
The testimony of the soldiers, that
the disciples stole him away, was
false testimony, and doubtless was
secured by the influence of those
who had brought about his cruel
fixion, an influence that was strong
with the Roman Governor. The Ro
man Governor was a man of easy
religion, and anything that would
give him control with the men of In
f1uence of the Jewish Church, would
be listened to, and when the Jews
asked that they be allowed to say
that the soldiers said that the Disci-
PIES of Christ stole him away, the
understanding was that no investiga
ton of the truth of the saying was
to be made
The same influence that persuaded
Pontius Plate to agree to the cruel
fixicn of Christ, secured the testi.
mcny for the enemies of Christ that
was never given by the soldiers,
namely, that the Disciples stole him
away while they-the soldiers-slept.
No more dishonorable rejection could
be made against a Roman soldier
than to say that he slept while on
duty, and yet the Roman Governor
permitted the reflection to be made,
to satisfy the enemies of Christ.
The Third Testimony is by the
writers of that day and time. What
the writer's say of Christ prove his
resurrection.
The Fourth Testimony is found in
the Feast of Pentecost, where the
miraculous gift of language III differ
ent tongues was given to the Apos-
ties or Disciples, and where all the
fear and uncertainty that had pre-
viously characterized their every
movement was dispelled, and where
they received the bold spirit to go
forth and proclaim Christ Arisen to
all the world The testimony of the
Feast of Pentecost was of the most
convincing character.
The Fifth Testimony is found in the
wonderful advancement that Christi
anity made under the preaching of
the Apostles who had been inspired
to do so at the Feast of Pentecost.
The Sirth testimony is, if possible,
still more convincing on the question
of the resurrection, and is found in
the works of Christ himself In the
resurrection of Lazarus. the resur-
rection of the widows son, and in the
resurrection of the daughter of Jai-
rus,and this testimony is strongly sup
ported in the resurrection of the son
of the widow of Zarepheth by Elijah,
and the resurrection of the Sbunam-
ties son by Elisha, and still further
by the predictions of the Prophet
Ezekiel in regard to the future resur-
rection of men, in his vision of the
gathering of the dry bones of dead
humankind.
Just how the unseen forces of uni
versal nature, are to be moved when
the time comes for resurrection,
when every bone shall seek its fellow
bone, and all shall be marshaled IN
Judgment, poor humankind cannot
tell. Just how the ashes of Gre
mated body that had been spilled out
of the urn in which it had been
placed for sacred keeping 10y friends
of the deceased, are to be gathered,
is beyond the comprehension of the
human mind to tell, but all such viii
be gathered, under the almighty
power of God. the Father; with Him
all things are possible. Ed.
