THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTiON of York has nominated a flue ticket for the H1ouse-,consisting of Col. Asury Coward, B. -1. Massey, Peter Garrison and Charles Green. Mr. Massey was elected to the House at the last general election, and took a prominent position. The other nominees are worthy gentle men, and will make excellent repre sentativcs. Tu NATrIoNA L Democratic Conunit teo have determined to open a naltional campaign in South Carolina. Scunator McDonald, of Indiana, and Congress man Banning, of Ohio, and Randolph Tucker and Eppa llunton, ot'Virgillia, will canvass the State. These gentle men are fine speakers and their pres ence will aid materially hi swelling the Democratic majorities in each Con gressional district. BIEAsT Br J'impt is making a roaring eanvass in Massachusetts.. IIe clains that he will receive seventy thousand Democratic, thirty-five thousand Re publican and thirty-five thousand Orecubacker votes, a total of one hutin dred and forty thousand out of two hundred and fifty thousand votes in the whole State'. His opponents con eede him about a hundred thousaI(d and predict a disastrous defeat for the Knight of the Spoons. AT THIE MAss-MEETING ini Sumter on the 21st, Sanm Lee, the- notorious mun latto Radical leader of that county. endleavored to r'ai'se at row by saying that he wantedl to ask the Qovernor a question. The people0 of &ainiter have becomei disgusted- with hlis imlpuIdenice and( they were abount to gratify Sam by giving him a fIrst class beat ing; but Governor J1Iamiijont connn~andled the peaee anid professed his entire willing ness to atnswver aniy qjuestion) Lee might wish to ask. Sami, however, ntot wish ing to be0 conifoiunded hii the p~resenice of his (dusky (dupes0, pru'idenitly refrained from p)utting his questions. Sam is the sameC fellow who p)layed the role of reformer in the Green campaign and duped the Conservatives. Lie is wecll knowni now, andl huis day Is piast. As the backwoods jiudge said, the peop1)c want nothing froum Sam now but, silence, and they want blamed little of that. IT nEHOOVEs TlE people, white pay.. ing strict at tention to county aflhirs, also to have an eye open for the Con gressionial election. The Radicals have not yet nominated a man against Colo nel Evins; but It Is by no means probable that they wil~l suffer hin to have a walk over. Old A. S. Wallace is lying low at preosent, but he Is an adept in the arts of a ''still hunt,'" and the chances are teji to one that lie will spring his trilp immuediately before the election. If Ohio and Indiana, in October, give the Radicals anuy hope, they wvill good this Congressiowul dis trict with speakers anid wvith mnoney too, If the bread and butter br'igade will stand an assessmnent. The success of Colonel Evins Is just as essential to the political life of South Carolina as that of Governor Hampton or the county ticket. The D)emocrat8 must control at Washington as wvell as In South Carolin. Let us keep an eye on Wallace. -Red Shirt. The red.shbrt is the emblemi of Do cratic supremacy, and It Is a tower of strength, A )mpudred men i red Shi.e can evoke miore Onthpalsasra pu(1 do more work MIAd $onr t#mes thec niumber In ordinafy oitigens' dress; We believe that statistics would prove $tatihn dneree of nepmam'gtI .~c i 1876'was directly proportional to. the iinbor o redshirts. No red shirted county went Radical in that calmpaign. We might philosophize oil the reason for this, and show that tle! same enthusiasm that would im1pel cvn the grey-beard sexago1narian to don a flanig red-sbirt, would also enable hii to overconiC all obstitles. But we shall )e content with simply, statiig tle ftict that a red-shirt is an oriflaimic ot' vilory. Let all Demo crats who have not one10 il ready provide themselves in inm for the next rally, and for the final contest at, the polls. The Kimpton Case.

WAsHINoToN, September 23.-Ob serving men have noted the fact that it is only in lRopublican States, like Maine, Vormont, Ohio, etc., that the party ill power has over been injured by the "Gcreuback' movemlen t, To the Soiltl and in other States under Democratic con trol, the mnovemnent has m1ado siall progress, or has advanced without particularly disturbing the ruling pariy. In Now HIlmlpshiro, las. sach usetts, Pennsylvania, Illinois, and in States west of the Aissis sippi, wlihih are controlled now by the Republicans, there are indiea tions of as great 1o:,s to that party as in Maine. If But ler or any other man, good or bad, Greenbacker, National or what not, chooseo to, assist in the essential work of breaking up the Radical party, why should we not thank heaven for that choico? We need not mako Butlors our candidates, but neither need we kill them when they aro doing a work we Wish IICCo ml ished. With the increasing attention paid to financial questions or other questions which seriously mffeett men all over the North, less and less interest will be felt in the imaginary wrongs of an emancipated race in the South, and less and less time or dispositioi will Northern Blaines, Conklings, Howes and Butlers have to meddle with the purely local affairs of other sections. The ideal Union is one in which every State has enough to do in minding its own bisiness, and is unable, though perhaps anxious, to interfere with the affirs of others. The social world bids fair to prOsont a gay scene at the National tapital the coming season, though ma1ny ch.mges will take Place in fashionable socioty because of the expiration of tie terms of so many Congressmen. Hon. Matt H. Carpenter, who r sides here, has accepted an in, formal nomination of friends for the United States Senato. He has here a large law practice, the best library of professional works owned by any lawyer here, and scems to be na comfortably situated as any man could dosire.. But they say that no man, having once been in the Senate, ever coases to wish for a re-election. Carpenter would be an infinite improvemitL upoai Howe inl ability ani inuience. If we al to have a Republiecan Senator ciosel inl Wisconsin, by all moans let it be Carpenter. Yet Schurz. so violently assailod by Howe, op poses Carpenter and permits liis subordIinaLtes to violato all the civil service reform rules in wvorking for Howe. It is more thman likely, too, that. Hayes feels 8afer with the petty op~position that H-owoe can make than he wvould with an abler and independent man like Carpenter in the Senate ; and Hayes is quoted as wishinig for Carpenter's defeat. MIassachI usetts Republicans seem to hiavo followed the people of Maine in helping Butler. They h.uve jusit nominated a candidate for governor whom they could wvith~ difficulty elect, if at all, in an ordi nary campaign, and wvho wvill not probably receive more than two voties to Butler's three. Every man in Mass'achusetts who lives uipon the labor of others will vote for Mr. Talbot, the Rep~ublican nominee. Massachusetts people are not in a mood just now to submit to thait class. Washington, herself poor1, has sont nearly thirty thousand dollars in money and large amounts of provisions to the sufferers in the Southwvest, and contributions are increasing. It is only fair to say that much of the method and con sequecnt success in this wvork is duc to the energy of "Boss" Shepherd, and that lie gives all his time to it. AUsTIN. CAMPAIGN ORATOIIs IN SOUTHK CARIO LINA.-It is announced that the na-. tional executive committee has ap pointed Senator IMoDonald, of Penn syly.mnia, aind Mess Banning, of Ohio, Randbolph Tucker and Eppa Hunton, of Virginia, as speakers in South> Carolina during the p endcing cam paign. They are looked for early in October.

A move was made on neighboring. basroom nemd, loolking into one another's eyes, they dr'ainet without a word, the last of the rosy When it was asked who they were the only response that came -was "We wore not no~inated." A K.iANsAK C;ITY RODE.-An. e tonsive bank robbery wias committed in Kansas City on Friday. A well drossed man drove to the office of the Jackson County Railroad and called( the cashier to the sidewalk and hold a brief conversation ro garding a bad conductor in the company's employ. Shortly after the cashier's return to his office he discovered that the safe had been robbed of $1,000 in money and twenty-one thousand dollars in county bonds and mutual couj>ons, also a lifo insurance policy of ' hos. Carrigan for twenty..five thousand dollars and other valuable papors. Subsequently the box coit iining the bouds, &c., was fo-ind near the express company's stables, still having in it tho insuranco policy and papors, but the Ions and coupon. I gone.
