BEN BUTLER Capturleld tho Massa chusetts Democratic Convention, and got tho nomination for gov ernor. Tus Niw Yom( Tri/mne remarked during the Campaign in Maino that the stars were fighting for the .Re publican party. A contemporary thinks that, from all acconts, the stars seem to have gotten a little the worst of the fight. Tu REPUBiicANS started out in the Congressional eampaign to capturo the Houso of Representa tives. In tho first thro fibtters they gained nothing and lost four of their own men. They are getting along about as well as tho frog vho jumped up two feet every day and fell back four overy night ; and they'll land just about where ho did. HON. JOHN C. SH[EPPAlm, who camo to Winnsboro on the 1301 instant as a representative of the State Executive Committee, captu r, od tho mass-meting bodily, and had to make two speeches before thme Roed Shirts would let him alone. *Whenever lhe conmes back to Fair field he will meet with a hearty handshaking. UP vo0 'Tm~s vi'ur over throo quiar ters of a million of dollars have been subscribed for the yollow fever sufferers, and the fund is still in, coreasinmg. Every community in the United States is lending a helping hand. Fairfield has (lone some thing, but she can (10 much more. An urgent appeal is made this mornin g by a sympathizo'~r. Let it be a county matter. THI OAvI'FYINo intelligence hag been received that Governor Hamnp ton has recovered sufficiently to return to South Carolina, and that he wioulld1 01)pons onmp)aign in Green ville on the 18th. Ini apportioning Governor Hampton to the "negro counties," the State Executive Coms% mittoe abould remmember that Faird 11iold ranks, in prVoportionato pro pondoranco of the coloredl vote, along with lBcaufort, Charleston and1( Georget wn. We are going to Will anyhiow, but we wanit thle gov crnor to give us a talk. GRExNviL cousvry has held her primaries, and the fortunate Legis-. lativo aspiranuts are WV. C. Cleave land, Judge T. H. Cooke, M. IL. 'Donaldson and J. T. Austin, the last named being thie only repro, sentativo re-elected. Gen. Walter Gray wvas defeated, after a very aerimnonious tilt against Judge Cooke, whIose re-election as judge ho was instrumental in defeating. We regret that General Gray wvas not returned. Ho was a bold and1( capable member. Being young, he has plenty of time to recover from this reverse. With Judge Mackey on the honoh01 and Judge Cooke in the Legislature, who can say thlat "republics are ungrateful"? MASsAcIUSErTS is about to under.. ao p olitical eclinso. All the 11ghin of tho old partios arc fast being Oxtinguished, and amid tho general gloom Bon Butler's bad cyo glares like like a dark lantorn, solitary and alone. He entorcd tho guberna torial rac ax an Indopondent, gulped tho National Greenback party bodily, captured the working wing of tlhe Replibliean party and is bossing the Democratic machi no. Thme strong probability of having Butler for governor is making the "high toned" Plymouth Rockers notially sick. Butlor means busi ness, and although lie is a grand rascal le still has the stmongest personal magnetism perhaps of any leader in the United States. So Massachusefts has just cause for lamentation. As Massach usetts helped us to Chamberlain, we can afford to see her stagger a year or two under the weight of Butlor. It is not our funeral. A D YNAIMI TE H1ORRiOR, Four Mon Attompt to Blow Qpon a SnIfo of Nitro Glycerine and atro Torn to Shrods. At U-radford, Ia., on tho 15th in stant, ocemi-red a torriile explosion.
