The Court House Democratic Club liolil a meeting at Engine Hall on Tuesday night last for the purpose of makhig'preparations for tho reception of our noble Governor Hampton on the 21th instant. The pro ceedings of this meeting was :i noble exam ple and significant omen of tho bucccah of tjieoccnsion for which it was called to make preparation. Thoro was harmony of feel ing throughout, unily'of action on the part of every member, and a will bigness to work for theencccfcB of Democracy in every and any position. The troubled of the past and the excitement of the picsent have unilvd our people upon the groat issues, taught them lessons of moderation and infused them with a hope af success they have never ex perienced before The following committees were nppointed to make all arrangement in the several de partment to which '.hey have been assigned: On Reception?(ic'n. ?'as. |?\ I /.to r.

Day in the his toric Red ?Shirt, ami thus increase the long procession of Bed Shirt Democrats who shall greet and honor our Noble Chief tian. It is to he hoped that all the Clnl is in tho County will pass similar tc.-olutions, m> that Oraiigcbnrg may compare favorably with other Counties in developing the mys terious power hidden in this wonderful uniform of South Carolina Democracy. After the regular business of the meeting wart ended, Judge T. II. Cooke made a speech characteristic of tin- man, ami con gratulated thu members of the Cbib upon the completion of the preparations und especially urged them to make provision for the ladies that they may unite with the men in the enjoyments of the occasion. Capt. V. M. Wamnunakcr, being called upon, made a few partinent remarks, ami excused himself from a speech because of the campaign meeting at Uranohville the next day, on which occasion he expected to speak for Democracy Collcton County is awake and the cam paign is growing wanner every day to the dismay and discomfiture of the old Radical leaders.

COLORED DEMOCHATS. At a recent meeting of the Colt red Demo, ?rat? of Burnwcll, resolutions indorsing iov Hamilton, were passed by a large vote. TliCHe net forth that the promises, made by the Democracy under the leadership of our Governor, have been fully cairied out, and that the colored people of that county have an abiding faith in the sincerity ofour lead ers and tko guarantees of the party as to the peimnnent establishment of the political rights of all our citizens, Irrespective of race. Co-opei atioii with, what they style the Hampton Democracy, is assured (luring the present campaign, to secure the election of mieli men as avow themselves in sympa thy with that policy. These resolutions reflect not only the affiliation of the Btirnwell colored citizens with the Democracy, but every where, throughout the State, and especially in the up country, similar scntiinent-i are expressed by the colored people, showing not only the popularity of Ciov. Hampton, but plainly indicate what u powerful influence an honest political course will have upon tho.ie, who were hut lately our political enemies. From the remarks of Judge Cooke before the Court House Club, and from the general tenor of our exchanges, the same feeling and willingness to Co operate with us per vade the colored people of Greenville and other portions of the State. Even here in Orangehurg, the hot bed of Radicalism, where our colored people have been hng j ridden, brow-beaten ami bull-dozed by their lenders, there is n growing sentiment in favor of good government and the political doctrines set forth by our putty. Iiis ab solutely certain that this sentiment will continue to increase until the day of elec tion and will give at least 10U0 majority for Democracy. Orangeburg will certainly redeem the past and never again be enrolled as a Radical County. Sho will raise her head as proudly as any sister Comity, and, with her local advantages of climato fertili ty of soil, and superior natural resources, continue to advance in material prosperity and tho iinppincca of her citizens. Even the most ignorant colored man sees the dif ference between Radical and Democratic rule; between the dangers that threaten the life of the citizen in the one, and the peace that assures his safety in the other; and be tween the want which tempted hip family to dishonesty and the nssiirdauce which cheers him with the hope of ultimate pros perity, lie haft, at last, been made to know that Radical promises were vain, their as sertions false ami their purpose self aggran dize moot; he sees, al-o, that Democracy means rights for tho citizen, peace for the family and success fur the individual. Two years more of honest government and fair dealing will maku every negro in Orange burg a stanch Democrat. The Hon. M. I*. O'Connor, candidato for Congress from Ibis District, has been doing good political service in our County during the last two weeks. At Knott's mil!*, Lowisvillc, Kowesvillo r.nd Rrnnch vi lie crowds of our citizen1:, both white and black, flocke?] to bear this gifted speaker and purelstatcsiuanT and the .election day alone can reveal tho amount of good these political meetingshavo been to the cause ?>f Democracy among our colored/ < ilizcns. We feel assured that thoy will aid givatly in rolling up an astonishing majoiity in favor of Hampton and Home Knie. Red fdiirls was the order of the day at each meeting and the power behind the throne. The meeting at Hull's mil! was a com plete success ab bough .Mr. O'Connor, be cause of business in Charleston, could not attend. Our indefatigable County ?.'hair man, (.Jen. .1. F. I/lar and ('apt. F. M. \\'annaina>(er attended and made telling speeches. 1'roin indication, at this meeting the Democrats of Hull's mill will not come up wanting on the ~<th of November next. The end of the eases against Messrs. Van Tassel and Iloliver has not met the expecta tion of the people. Everybody, not only in the County l nl in tin- State, knows thai the people of Orangehurg have been robbed of thousands of dollars. In the Hush times of Radicalism the poor tax-payers were frocn crowding the Treasurer's olliee to pay their har l earned money into tho hands of offi cial cormorants, yol how few ever save a dollar cmne out for tin* benefit of the County, these thousands have passed from the possession of (he people and have been gobbled up by Radical muscovies. Yet the only ease prosecuted have failed utterly to reveal the whcro-.lbollts ol the people's money. There are thieves here pure and can it be possible Iba| Democratic officers have been deceived by more cunning ras cal and the pur-nit diverted from the guilty parties to innocent men. The humiliating end of these eases proves how cfleetually these born rogues have covered up their own tracks ami put tin1 bounds of the law upon the track of others. Time will un ravel the mystery and we hope it is not far distant. THE CUAUIiKJsTON BAPTIST ASSOCIA TJON.

NOMINATIONS MADE IIY THE CHAKLES TON COUNTY CONVENTION. The most important political event of the ?ear in this locality was undoubtedly the assembling of the Charleston County Demo aatie Convention yesterday in Hibernian Hall. It was tlie culmination of the hopes ind fears, not only of professional potiti cans who had been pulling tho wires for months past, bat of all good citizens who have been working hard to secoro nomina tions for the ^Legislature and for county offices that would reflect credit on tho party and county. How tho Convention met tho responsibilities of the occasion in best shown by the following ticket, which wim the result of their labors : tub Ticitrrr. For State Senator, Genoral Rudolph Sicgliiig. For Representatives, G. Larab "fiuist, Wm. Henderson, I. Francis Britton, C. B. Miles, C. B. Cassldy, A. S..J. Perry, James M Bason, B. II. Rut ledge, S. C. Eckhort, C. II. Sinionton, W. T. Kite, Jumci) Simons, Jr., John F. Ficken, Rev. Wm. Smalls, John Gonzalez, Oeorgo B. Walker, J. It. Wiggins. For I'robatc Jml^e, W. K. Vincent, for County Commissioners, T. A. Illlgcniu, W. T. Cain, l'hil. Fogarty. For School Commissioner, Bav. P. F. Slovens.?A'eir* and Courier. Wo give the above ticket a place in the Timks, because Charleston, from her posi tion as the commercial marl of the Stute, ami her influence from force of nuacrL. numbers, excreis?sn power in tho Leg'mhi tive Hulls that efleets more orless every portion of our Stan;. We know that tho Democrats of Mi is time-honored city will see to it that the ticket, which they have put in tho field, will he put in the Legisla ture in November next. It is asserted that ex Senator Robinson of South Carolina, ex pressen the opinion that there will hea solid Democratic voto in this State for members of Congress; and that there will he no opposition ticket ex cept in the first nnd second Districts; and even in these sections fthcrcjs nochancofor Radical success, because the colored vote cannot now he controlled a* it was in the days of the happy past. So much may bo placed to tho credit of Wade Hampton, Home Hule and Red Shirt Democracy. No doubt our Northern Republicans will put it to the credit of .Hampton's militia nnd Democratic bull-dozing. Well I let it he, s-i we win the light ?? Ohl England is feeling t he pressure of die hard limes as well as our owj^^aiuWy. Most uf" the ban to; ha vcnT par t reJuTcciihe acconunodatioi s usually extended to money-borrowers. Th.< Hank of England raided the rates of discount to sexponeo, also tin- rates for advances to seven pence, which makes ii next to hnpossi Metfor a man of ordinary means to borrow money or obtain advanced f<.r Ids labor. Should tho un settled condition of European afliiirs con tinue, the present troubles are hut the begin ning of those which are to coine after a while. Diko?
