Friday Morning..

Friday morning dawned bright and
fair. The occasional showers of Wednes-
day and Thursday morning had caused
some of those who always look on the
gloomy side of things to predict bad
weather for the Hampton meeting. The
long-continued drought would no doubt
have rendered showers of rain peculiarly
welcome to the farmers, and the magnani'
NOUS Governor would certainly not have
grudged then the desired blessing. But
his proverbial good luck attended HIM in
Abbeville as elsewhere, and the weather
was balmy and pleasant as only q .sprin2
day can DO. During the prolonged cam
paign of '76 it was remarked by all thai
good weather went with Governor Hamp.
ton from the beginning to the end. Not
one meeting of the many that he attended
between the mountains and the sea was
ever disturbed by rain; so much SO that
the expression Champaign weather. wa
coined and used, exactly as the loyal sub
.jects ofQueen Victoria speak OF "Queen's
weather." It.would seem that the same
campaign weather" is likely to attend
him again. x
At an aerly hour, the roads leading tc
Abbeville began to send in their continu:
Gus streams of citizens, on horseback apo
on foot, in carriages and in wagons. The
colored people came in such numbers
that it recalled to mind the throngs .eo1
thom that used to come in to attend re-
publican meetings in the unhappy days
gone by. AS a numerous company wa
expected by railroad, the business pro-
per Of the meeting was not begun unit
after the arrival Of the tram. Meanwhile
the Abbeyille Band, ever ready to further
a good cause, took its stand at the Aston
corner and delighted the expectant crowd
with musical. At a little AFTER eleven
o'clock Governor Hampton WAS escorted
to the stand by General MCGOWAN. =.

Mackcy was found, q bench warrant was
issued for his arrest, and the Sheriff or

Of my company were ,~intmediately Ten

posse IN the diligent search which wa
made for Redmond in the mountains OF
this county. I affords me pleasure to say
that my men when called on by me IN
this matter, not only responded prompt
", but almost to a man. 1t Is not true
that some Of the guns OF, my men were
used. by the Redmond party, and 1t Is
equally false that some of my men aided
in breaking into the jail recently, and
procuring the escape of prisoners therein.
You may rely, Governors upon the sup
port of my men, and l believe OF the cltl'
zens of Pickens County generally, 10 ar
rest and put down all insurrection, out
rage or violence which affects the peace
and good name Of III county.

The meeting Of to-day is no indication OF what
the campaign will be. The campaign has hardly

he will lind, in McGowan's classic phrase, "a regu-
Lar gulley-washer and ohunk-tonter.".
Leaving Abbeville Saturday morning to return
TO Columbia, the Governor experienced the same
demonstration which had greeted him on the
first day. In consequence Of d slight delay at
Hodges, the good people of that town were alone
favored with a speech Oh the return trip. At this
point the Governor was received by the Butler
kiiemen, Capt. W. z. McGhee and Lieut.. e. NJ.
Hodges, who were drawn, up in Line near the de-
pot. The Governor passed down the line and
shook hands with every member of the company.
The speaking followed, and the Governor was
succeededin short addresses by Judge Thomson
and Representative +. A. Conner. The party ar
rived at Columbia ut 5 o'clock.

Yesterday afternoon Chief Ziegler was
notified to appear before Chas Bird q
Notary Public at 80 West Third street, for
the purpose of giving his deposition in the
case of Clark Montgomery against Judge
Isaac b. Matson, and also to bring with him
the ballot-boxes of Precincts and B of
the Seventeenth Ward, and b of tie
Sixth Ward. A and B of the
Eighth Ward, and B of the Third Ward.
The summons was signed by Messrs. Healey
Brannon aid T. C. Campbell, attorneys
for Montgomery. The Chief responded,
but on being ordered to unlock the boxes
he refused on the grounds that it was not
his business so to do. This did not suit the
attorneys for Judge Matson, Mefsrs. Jordan,
johnson 4 Paxton, who asked that tho
Chief be committed to Jail for contempt.
A meeting was appointed for II o'clock
to-day at No. 80 West Fourth street, at
which time the boxes were to have been
opened, the ballots counted and the matter
probably settled.
But upon assembling it was found that
the question was still undecided as to who
is legally authorized to open the boxes and
count the votes.
This point must be passed upon by
Common Pleas Judge, therefore the matter
has been adjourned to 9 O'Clock FRI
day morning. In the meantime
Judge Burnet will decide whether
Chief Zieeler is the proper person to open
the boxes and, if it becomes necessary, will
make special appointment. In the mean
time the boxes will be kept under guard.

a person selected by the Committee. The

hour can be whiled away at the Museum
