81. Louis Banks In trouble.

ST. Louis, July ia run was started
on the BOatmens Savings Bank, Saturday
noon. The bank kept its doors open
until 0:30, and met all demands. The run
is not very great,tne largest single amount
drawn being $1,000. The business Of the
bank progressed nearly as usual, and the
amount received w 1t amounted TO nearly
halfaslmuch as was paid out. What started
the run is not exactly known, but probably
grew out Of the closing OF the Butchers
and Droyers Bank, and the dlstrust which
resulted from recent failures. Il IL
believed by those In position to know
that the bank Is entirely sound.
ST. LOUIS, July lG.--The Bank OF St
Louis has closed its doors. Jacob 5. Mer.
rill, President, says the depOsitors will be
paid In time.
ST, Louis, July lG.-The North st. Louis
Savings Association closed it's doors at
half.past ten O'Clock this morning. No
statement. Everything at the various
banks Is quiet. A few ladies at the Boat.
mems Bank are Withdrawing small de.
posits; the same may be said oil one or two
other savings institutions. No excite.
ment or indication Of run.

c. E. Wight, ESQ., Vicksburg, Miss,
Dear Sir: Ihave noticed an article
In the Vicksburg HERALD Of this date,
In which certain charges are made IN
reference to the political status oi Col
Jones S. Hamilton. l desire 10 say in
reference to the same, that Col. Hamii-
ton has been Deputy Auditor with ne
ever since took charge OF the offica.
| appointed him my Deputy with fu.
knowledge of the fact that he Uas not
at the time, and had aever been Re-
publican. II be has, since his appoint
ment, had ANY afiiliation with the Re-
publican party, | have not known it,
nor do believe that he ever has had.
Ny selection of Col. Hamilton as Depu-
ty was made on the ground, that |
believed him to be q competent and
worthy gentleman, and one who could
and would discharge the duties of that
position, honestly, faithfully, and to the
satisfaction Of myself, and the people
Of the State: and l am glad 10 be
able to say that in this, | have not been
disappointed. He has, in all respects,
fulfilled my expectations. l may here
add, that in the employment of my
clerical force In the Office which have
had the honor to Gil, l have been gov
erned and guided by their efficiency
rather than their political proclivities.
OF the FIVE clerks now employed, one
is Republican and four are Demo.
crats, at least such is my impression
and belief, though have never asked
one OF them what was his politics or
how he voted, As all will testify. Eff.
cheney, honesty, fidelity and capacity
is my test of qualification, aud not po-
litical affiliation. am taking no part
whatever in the contest now in pro.
gress, for the various State offices, nor
shall | take any. deem It but justice,
however, to q worthy man, and most
efficient officer, to say what | have
above said in reference TO Col. Hamil-
ton. This letter is written without any
consultation with, or knowledge on
the part Of Col. Hamilton, and | shall
hand 1t to him 10 be handed to you,
with my full permission 10 make any
use desired of it. Very respectfully,

PractIcaIResuIts,

"Tha proof Of the pudding is in the
eating" The proof that the Demo-
cratic triumph in the Southern States
is q good thing for the whole country,
Is in the results.
The States that were rescued from
the thieves and corrupt scoundrels be.
fore the last Presidential election have
rapidly improved in every respect, and
the States Of Louisiana and South Car
olina are even better proofs OF the
good effect OF the rule OF intelligence
and thrift.
In South Carolina real estate has
rapidly increased in value, confidence
Is restored, labor is remuneratve, and
already we hear that Northern men
are investing capital in that State with
view Of engaging IN manufactures.
Recently Governor Hampton went to
New York to make some financial ar.
engagements, and be succeeded to his
entire satisfaction as soon as he made
his wants known. In Louisiana the
situation Is equally as tlaCeying. New
Orleans has reduced her debt since
Nichol!s's Inauguration nearly $780,
600, and the State securities have adj
vanced fully forty per cent. Real estate
Is steadily rising in value and that con-
fidence in the stability OF Government
which Is the precursor of progress i;
felt in every portion Of the State. The
people, instead of being harrassed by
politics and the fear OF corrupt and
dishonest government, are hopeful and
devoting all their efforts to their private
interests. Crop prospects are good and
In harvest time the people, white and
black, will ook back on Radical rule as
an evil escaped forever. These are things
that Blaine, Packard, Chamberlain and
Conventions like the one in Iowa, will
not allude to, but they furnish incon.
trovertible proof of the wisdom OF
Hayes's policy.

JACKSON, MIss., July lS, ls77.

AT the mass meeting OF the Demo
cratic and Conservative citizens OF
Jackson, held 10 the Representatives
Hall, on the l4th July, inst, for the
purpose of electing delegates 10 the
County Convention, the following reso-
lutions were offered by Col. W. L. Nu-
gent and adopted without dissenting
voice:
Resolved, by the Democratic citizens OF
Jackson, in Mass Convention assembled,
That our tOwnsman, Col, Jones >. Hamil-
ton, has been put in a false position by
certain charges made against him in an
editorial Of the VicksburS HERALD Of the
lIth inst; and that we deem 1t but justice
TO that gentleman to deny on our part all
knowledge Of the several specific accusa-
tons which we quote as follows:
"That he made a speech for Ames In the
Convention that nominated him; that he
electioneered for Grant; that he furnished
wagons for negro Republicans to go and
register and vote against the Democratic
party; that he was appointed city Clerk
under the Radical City Government OF
Jackson, Save in so far as his election TO
that Office by Democratic majority Of the
Board OF Aldermen can be 50 C"nsldered) };
that he has Radicals IN MS employ at the
state Penitentiary, and that he has never
belonged to any Democratic organization
since Dents defeat by AlcOrn."
In regard to the one other specification
that he has promised to retain the Radical
employees lu the Auditors Office, we can
only say that out Of the i've clerks en-
gagged In that Department, four are Dem.
0crats and always have been, and whether
he has promised to retain the solitary Il =
publican or not, we neither know nor care,
II any OF the above charges are trut, 1t
would be singular indeed, that we, his i'm
mediate neighbOrs, friends aud associates
should know none Of the facts upon which
they must rest for substantiatiOn; there
fore.
Resolved further, That as members Of the
Democratic party we declare oar cont
dence in Col. Hamilton unshaken by the
above charges, which are entirely untrue
and which we hope the public VINO have had
no opportunity OF information will do him
the justice TO discredit in every particu'
lar.
The following resolution, offered by
Vicksburg weekly herald., 1877-07-20

WE this morning print several com.
munIcations In regard TO Colonel ZONES
s. Hamilton. We do this because we
wish to do him no injustice, and we
therefore are perfectly willing TO pre-
sent his side Of the question, and he
certainly has strong vouchers. Our
readers will bear In mind that some Of
the charges we made against him were
upon information, and others upon our
own knowledge. Those we knew OF,
we suppose are known to the whole
State, and are, that be Is Deputy Au-
dilor under Col. Gibbs; that be is
partner in the PeDitentiary contract
and that be lie Clerk OF toe City Gov
ernment Of Jackson, which we thought
was q Republican government The
other charges were founded upon in
formation furnished by others, and is
directly cOntradlcted by COL Hamilton
and his friends.
