Rich ardson, our Democratic candidate for Governor, spoke at Florence and made a masterly defence of our State ijemocratic administration from 1876 U> tlje present time- Colonel Richard: son Is one of the few men who can give interest to a speech containirnr many figures. He made a thorough refutation of the charge that the pub lic debt had been increased siuce 1876. In our next we will try and And room for some of his facts and figures. Death ot Cpl. William Pinckney Starke. A dispatch to the Hop. Thomas J. Davies, of Beech Island, brings the mournful intelligence that Col. Wm. Pinckney Starke, died at Pendleton, S. C., on the 12th of October. Colonel Sta’ke was an aimable gentleman of high attainments as a scholar and was universally esteemed wherever known. He had been for some time engaged in writing a biography of the late John C. Calhoun, and was in constant consultation with Col. Jas. H. Rion, of Winnsboro, and Mr. Thomas G. Clemsou on the subject. It was at the residence of the latter, Mr. Calhoun’q old homestead, at Fort Mill, and while examining the papers Of South Carolina’s great statesman 'thatdeath overtook him. The Old War-Horse at Summer- iHS-i- Senator Hampton spoke at Sum merville on Saturday and was receiv ed with old time euthusiam. The jToilowing extract from his speech is very emphatic, and furnishes excel lent reading for the Congressional nominee from this District: “I beg you. then, to stand by the Democratic President. We have nev er had a better President, and in my judgment he will be the next one. ( Applause.] I have very little faith n those Democrats who, while they claim to he Democrats, attack the ad- tqiifistr&tlon in its most vital part. I should make it'a point, if I did not Agree with all yiews of my own ttdniiuistratioii, at least'to keep quiet e ttye benefit of the doubt, it to work out, as best it policy.” and let itli and to alltj red I by a'Flood. Sabine Pass a town on the South East coast of Texas, and Johnsons Bayou, aud aPostofllce station known as Radford, situated in Cameron Par ish, on the Louisiana shore about six miles East of Sabiue Pass, were eu- tifrely destroyed by a storm, accom- pauied by a tidal wave on Tuesday last Oct. lith.' The destruction of property in each case is complete, on ly two or three houses being left standing. Nearly two-hundred per sons are known 1 to have perished, and it is thought that this number will lie jncreased when definite figures are ascertained. The despatches from the kcene of the disaster contain heart rending accounts of suffering and death. Relief committees are at work both in New Orleans and Galveston, And we have no doubt that the gener ous hearj of tho great American peo ple will go out to these stricken com munities and alleviate in every pract icable way, the misery and suffering produced by'this terrible visitation. George by a large majority. n The State Campaign Meeting fori this Congressional District will take place to-morrow at Johnson's. Colon el Richardson and the other members of the State ticket’ together with Hon. G. D.Tillman, will lie on hand, ft is not improbable that Senator Hampton will also be preseui. In spite of all the labor troubles, the Granitevilli; and Vaucluse Mills are running on full time and every thing working smoothly. This is much better for the operatives and all concerned than the unfortunate condition of affairs which has existed so loug in Augusta. The death of Mr. Yulee of Florida leaves, it is said, but two living who withdrew from the United States Sen ate in 1861—Mr. Davis, of Mississippi, and Mr. R. M. T. Huuter, of Virginia. The Legislature wijl meet in the building of the Agricultural Depart ment, as the State House is not in a coudition tube used. Columbia now bas a street railway in operation, and it is said to be a pay ing success. The survivors of the Wallace House will hold a meeting iu Columbia, on the IGiii of November. Newbery Observer says: The Pres ident ran for Mayor while Sheriff; for Governor while Mayor; for President while Governor. But he insists that a District Attorney must hot lie a candi date for Congress. Has the President ascertained that lie acted im properly himself, or does lie prescribe one set of rules for himself and another for other people? The President has good reason to insist that a District Attorney shall not neglect the duties of his office «• trying to secure another: but to say, without qualification or exception, that lie shall not be a candidate for another position is inconsistent with his own record and with common sense as well. Several Knights of Labor a few nights since visited Poaii, in Madison county, Georgia, and organized a lodge of Knights of Labor among t! e negroes. They are visjting every county in Georgia and lodges among the blacks. The great success of many agonb employed by B. F. Johnson & Co., of Richmond, is a pretty’good evidence of the excelence and the popularity ot the books tli^y offer to sell through their agents. This is a reliable hous« and any contract made with them you can depend ou will be faithfully carried but. " The burning earth in Kershaw County proves to be a mass of peal, which will probably continue to burn until the rainy season sets in. Jasper Davis, the brute who so cru - ellv shot and killed his wife iu Ander son County on the 25th Sept., lias been found guilty of murder, and sentenc ed to be hanged on the 5tb of Novem ber.

Henry Ward Beecher has at last succeeded iu creating a sensation in Bondon by giving utterance to his views on the subject of retribution. In reply to a question propounded to him while delivering a recent address, Mr. Beecher said, “That any man believ ing iu retribution, who married, en tered society or smiled, was a mon ster. B*- 1 preferred working through the fear, springing from love, rather than through the* fear of the barbaric doctrine of r e t r i b u t i o n. ” This distinguished tramp may now succeed in bringing back a fair amount of British gold. Now, that John Bull has been goaded into a State of excitement, lie is more than apt to part, with his two shillings to bear the great yaqkee preacher. Beecher is too 'sharp a man of the World not to know that the best way ibgetat an Englishman's pocket book id to get him mad and then ho is sure to scatter his money.

IfcTOTZC The real and personal property of South Carolina Is assessed atonly $150- 000,000, but Colonel Richardson, our present Htate Treasurer and next Governor, asserts that it is not half the real valuation, and he will find few well informed persons who will disagree with him. The low rate of assessment for both real and personal ^property in thousandsof instances are scandalously unfair. This unfairness Increases the rate of taxation upon those who return their property with approximate «.Directness. Home rem edy should be devised to secure more equitable returns.
