 ! CHARLESTON, A. T., May l3.- The
 Tombstone Epitaph of this morning,
 says tlat the anti-law and order meeting
 held here last night was large and en-
 thusiastic assembly. A count of noses,
 including men, women, children, Mexi-
 cans and ChinameD, gave h result of
 fifty. The resolutions were unanimous
 ly carried by some half d zen men.
 Doubtless when the speakers referred to
 thls as peaceful and law-abiding ccun-
 try they failed to recollect the large num-
 Der of cold-blooded murders and assas-
 sinations which have occurred in this
 county within the last two years, the
 number of times that the stages have
 been fired upon, the express robbed and
 ma'ls broken open, the hundreds of head
 ot cattle stolen and driven cut of the country, and the number of men ruin q and homes made desolate thereby.
