organ, the Charleston News and Courier contains
an account of a democratic meeting lately held at
Hampton Court House. where Gov. Hampton was
one of the speakers. The audience was gathered
from all parts of the county, the men be ing
dressed in red shirts and the ladies in jackets OF

The Hampton plan is working beauti-
fully in South Carolina. Evidences of its
complete success are abundant in the
State press. Here is column account OF
political meeting headed: "All lovely
in Lancaster A perusal of it shows that
there were three thousand persons pres
ent and that half of them wore the bull
dozer's uniform of redshirt. The loud
pealing yells, with short intervals, at ev-
cry approach Of the Red Shirt clubs could
be heard all along the streets" They
were all undoubtedly "well-heeled" and
accompanied by the proper number OF
stool chests" The account closes with
this natural result of the parade; "The
republican candidates have almost all de-
clined to run" Hence the loneliness of
the political situation in Lancaster.

The United States Treasury, on the Sd
day OF August, 1873. held in its vaults
$34s. 500. 700 in United States bonds to Sc
cure national bank circulation. and on
which il pays the banks the usual interest.
At 6 per cent. this wonld amount to $780,
9l0.043 per annum; but, as the bonds bear
different rates of interest down to per
cent, say the average is per cent.
which amounts to Sl7 ,425, O35 year.
Now. while the banks thus receive about
seventeen and half million dollars au-
nually in interest. they pay out in taxes to
the Federal and State Governments from
eighteen to twenty-five million dollars
every year. If. therefore, the banks re-
ceive certain amount of the peoples
money In interest on United States bonds,
they pay back the amount and million
or two more to the people in taxes.

entertained here by those best informed of a
respite for either John kehoe or Martin Ber-
gan, the Mollie MaguireS, who are TO be eXecu-
ted tomorrow morning, and the parting fare
wen OF the families of the doomed men was
taken this morning. kehoe's wife, accompaniei
by her six small children, were the first at the
prison. They remained long time, and the
for the wife is expressed on all sides. Soon ar
ter she left him, kehOe'S father grief-stricken
Cid man, and Mrs. kehoeS mother, both came
and haGe him farewell. Bergan was called on
by his first wife. her two children and her mo-
ther and brother. They, too, have given up all
hope and look upon the fate OF their relative as
seltled: The necessary preparations for the
executions are now in progress
