THROUGH We might fill our paper with accounts of Gov; Hampton's passage, through j;his State on his return to South Carolina from his visit to Washington. He was greeted with jilt sorts of popular demonstrations of joy and -honor at every point along jthe, road where the jeople had an opportuni ty to see him. He stopped at CharUtte over night and so it was reserved for her spirited citizens to distinguish themselves by one of the grandest displays ver: of fered to a public man. Illuminations, banners, music, speeches, processions nd flowers in profusion, made the little city as gay as a bride decked for the nuptials. Gov. Hampton had no tongue equal to the occasion, though lie spoke briefly in hearty recognition of the honor done him. All the way home, Jhrough his own State, ithe people' flocked to. the depots to greet him. It would be tedious to detail these numer ous evidences of love and esteem. The men huzzaed, trumpets were blown, cnu non's roared, the women kissed him nd filled hU car with wreaths and boquets. It all ended at last iu Columbia, whither ho was escorted by a lafgfr delegation who met him at Charlotte. At Columbia ho made a speech to the people, and as this may possess some peculiar interest to our readers we present it in another pjart of this paper, LEXINGTON DAVIDSON COUNTY- The young . people of Lexiiurton had cuarauos -aou piays m.tue uourt uojiise last weok, to. raise-funds for a benevolent purple. j.TlK'y, were' successful not only in lutereatjHg ajuuamusiug the citi4's, who tur'jj out largely to attend tjU-ir pcrforpiajces, but aho in the pecuniary object in.(yie.w, ,. . i Mr. jjf,F Lowe, of that place, who suf fered sorseverdy by firo last October, has rebuillus. store and is again handsomely . fixed-hjn hs..new- building, with, a new stock goods just arriving, and ready to receive the calls and the? orders of his cus tomers.

Jit is not expected at tie Wbite House Tfra the clanged rt Chamberlain and his party in South Carolina, will have any serious effect in delayingjacification.

Chamberlain was contented to allow the wisdom of; the Presidenrto rule hM; thereha4banintMgtw.Hi v ; 'yV.f! The tone of the papers in speaking of the mauoeuversof Chamberlain and Pack- Ur,l - wliii-li h heretofore been one i general ridicule, is becoming threatening, MIDNIGHT. . - Washington, April 9. Caleb-Cnshinc had a farewell audience with the King of Spain on Saturday.3 Leiial tender -notes hereafter received in exchange for silver, will be held as a sep arate fund, to be issued buly in exchange or in redemption of silver. ' The Star closes an article, captioned ''Chamberlain's Attitude:" It is stated that Gov. Chamberlain and those who will stand bv him, have one or two objects in view. First, either to force President TTVivpa to flirerilv'Tecojrnize Hampton, if -""J J - " - CD - t . . he means to give him the aid and comfort of the administration, or failing to do this, to have the question referred to Congress at its special session, for such legislation as the urgency-of the situation demands. The -hope seems to be, that if apolitical debate is started in Congress, that the delav- will cause a reaction in sentiment v fayorable to Chamberlain, and probably induce Hampton to forego the pledges he made to President. Hayes, and attempt to gain Jiy force or coup de' etat what would involve a tedious delay through forms of law. The Supreme Court decides that the million and a half, appropriated to the centennial, reverts to the United States, and was not the property of the stock holers. This reverses the decision of the lower court, and depresses centennia stock over fifty per cent. A dispatch from Sheridan confirms the report of Crazy Horse is coming in, and that Sitting Bull is moving towards Cana da. ; Ihe President will have his summer residence at the Soldier's Home grounds near the citv. Hereafter he will refer office-seekers to" the heads of the depart ments. Clerk Adam's roll of the house, at pres ent, shows nine seats held open for con test, viz : Louisiana, two ; Florida, two Missouri, two; South;, Carolina, one Colorado, one ; California one. Ihe btar, elsewhere than its gossip says editorially : j "The indications- are that Chamberlain and Packard have been advised totick, by some of the Northern xtremist of the Republican party. Th e sudden change iu Chamberlain's views, and the announcement, that he lias decid ed to hold on to his office of Governor till ejected by legal process, is looked upon as affording proof that he has been put to this 'course-by some persons in the back ground, but it is pretty certain - that his backing does not embrace any considera ble portion of even the pronounced' Re publicans." "'- The New York 2 hues, which has been the vigorous exponent of straight Repub lican ism, gives Chamberlain the cold shoulder in his resistance policy. There are Republicans at the North as well as at the South, that paper says, who, for obvious reasons,- desire to perpetuate the Southern question, with all its embar rassments, as an element, in national politics. Any settlement which shall re move the question from the partisan arena, is to politicians of this class, acqniesenee of the first water. To their efforts may be traced the attempt to induce Mr. Cham berlain and his associates to interpose all possible hinderances to the legal measures j which may be taken for the confirmation of Mr. Hampton's authority consequent upon the removal of the troops from the State House. Whether sttch proceedings lead to strife and bloodshed, is ti these desperate partisans a matter of trifling moment. Their sole object is to create excitement which might revive partisan passion throughout the North, and so frustrate the conciliatory policy of the administration. Mr. Chamberlain will disappoint us if he lends himself tp any of these schemes. The sympaty now felt for him will be destroyed, if he prolongs a contest, whieh in existing circumstances, can have but one end. In regard to the Louisiana case,,' the Times says that "the complications are more serious,-and that unless both parties receue a little from the extreme position they have assumed, the commission will leave New Orleans without accomplishing anytuing ; but it holds that the duty "of iie rresioant, as he interprets it, is in no manner identified wjth the maintenance of Mr. Packard in an qffice whose functions he is unable to perform and a brief order to the troops, jrill. leave him helidesiu These word,4depctng'be' poDey of resistance, coming from a republican pa per of the standing of the ..Times, have significance. : . e The President 1s-'Coastaltl7.lj, letters from an parts of the countjry, thfl writers being of both political paicies, approving his administration policy.

LATEST TELEGRAPH NEWS. Washington, April 10. The Tribune"1 $ New Orleans special says: President Haves' Special Commission labored four hours yesterday, with a dele gation of the leading business men of the city, with the object of persuading them to organize a movement to compel the politicians to form a consolidated legisla tore of all the members fli both rival bodies, whose, election is not contested. The members of the Commission made earnest speeches ; the business men were, however, immovable. They said that rather than run the risk of liaving to en dorse Packard as Governor, they would resist with arms, so as to make a military government necessary. To-day's experi ment ends this compromise plan. The Commission may try to bring about an adjournment, on the bams of a legislature made up from the face of the parish re turns. This is the only compromise that has the least prospect of acceptance by the conservatives. Washington-, April 10. Very extensive revenue frauds in the manufacture of tobacco in North Carolina have recently been brought to light, and the department proposes taking vigorous measures to bring the parties concerned in them to speedy punishment. Some thirty manufacturers in the county of Surry are charged with participation in the fraudulent tranactions, and have been indicted before the grand jury of the Uni ted States Circuit Court for the Western District of North Carolina, within the past few days, through the efforts of the reve nue agents. Brooks and Wagner. Maj. Wagner has charge of the district in which these frauds were perpetrated. Asa means of deterring these revenue agents from the performance of their duties, a number of suits have been brought against them for alleged technical violations of law. But the department has signified its intention to fully sustain the agents in the prosecu tion of these and all other violations of the internal reveneue law, and has assur ed them that the power of the government will be invoked to protect them against all such suits. The frauds discovered in North Carolina are estimated by the rev enue agents to exceed one-third of the total amount of the revenue taxes collect ed in that State. - SOUTH CAROLINA. .

LOUISIANA. " Th Commission Interviewed by the Cotton Exchange Delegation. ' " " w New Orleans, April r 10. Yesterday the Commission had a three hours secret consultation, then received the delegation rom the Cotton Exchange, representing all the business elements, to whom they are reported to have said: They had sought Louisiana but could not find it. They found two governments, two Supreme Courts, and an alleged dual government in all departments, but in fact by the ac knowledgment of all parties there is on ly one legislature, though it meets in two halls. The moment that the legislature meets in one body, it will, be the State of Louisiana, and while if is in session,' the only power in the State that caii 'secure the intervention of the army. If self-gov ernment is desired, and the withdrawal of the army, it can' probably by secured in a day j should the public opinion of the State compel its legislature to meet as one body. There are 33 of the 3G Senators, and 104 of the IsO Jlepe'esehtativesJ whose election is not disputed by either party ; and tho commission urged that vhon they assembled as such, the commission could have nothing whatever to say about its ac tions. The discussions continued three hours. The delegation was inclined to accept the' suggestion, maintaining that Nicholls must be-defended as Governor to the fullest extent. The commission was in session nine hours. From the Charlotte Observer. GOV. RETURN HAMPTON'S TO COLUMBIA. Capt. W. B. Stanley, in a short but ap propriate address, welcomed Gov. Hamp ton in behalf of the citizens of k Columbia Then Carolina's deliverer rose, and, when the loud bursts of heartfelt applause sub sided, for an hour, spelKlotiiid the vas assemblage which had collected to do him honor. HAMPTON'S SPKEC1I. Mr. Chairman, my Countrymen and Count nj women of South Carolina a .' 1 ravel-worn ana weary, I have conu back amongst you, to make my report to my constituents. Those constituents are the people ot fcouih Carolina, and coming here, to my surprise, I find a welcome which has stirred my "heart to its inmost depths. It is not. a welcome that con quered people would give to a conqueror. I bring no blood-stained ensign ; I bring no trophies from battle fields, but come to ! say that the cause m wiiu li you made me your standard-lieaiTr-thc cause of truth has been victorious, and once more the banner of South Carolina--not carried through bloody fields, but through those more glorious ones, ol peace tlouts oyer the State, free, disenthralled, re generated and lcdccini'd." Ami how has it leen redeemed, my -friends 1 Not by blood, not by violence, but by that poten tial agency, the ballot. It has been re deemed, because the honest men of South Carolina, of all races, and of all parties determined to wipe away the scandal which has hung so long ovier her history. It was because we saw we had to light for very existence. We saw that all we held dear iu the past was sinking or being blot ted away. That the civilization ot' .huu-; d reds of years was being , blotted out. That our government' was to pass into the hands of aliens and strnngerw, and trust ing alone in (Jod and the justice of our cause iu the hands of God on high, we would make one more effort to redeem South Carolina, and if she should go down, it would be with our banners floating, and with no stain to disgrace the cause. And you fought a battle that has never .been equaled upon the American Continent. I scarce realized in those days of peril and gloom, the grave issues that were hanging on this contest. I did not real ize them, until I went. to Washington. I tell you that a musket shot in this town would have meant civil war on thisT'on tinent ; and what stopped it T cries of, you 6u J No, my eotrutrymen, it was be cause the people of South Carolina were the most law-abiiling people in this coun try, and because they had risen above considerations of party and determined to save their State, I tell you that though you have won this fight through the men, or rather the women- fur it was the wo men of South Carolina who won the yicr tory, because there was not a woman iu the State who would" look Hpon a mail who turned his back., . upon our cause. Tlujrest of this seutencc was lost in cheers. But, my friends, you won the victory at the ballot box. But then came the more insidious attack upon us by fraud. From the 7th day of November to this time, the verdict of tlie people of South Carolina, expressedat the ballot box, has been stilled. We have appealed as peace ful citizens should have done, not to vio lence, for you know there is not a man in Columbia who does not know that when that crowd was standing out there for night after night. it required but a word to sweep, as the storm drives the leaves before it, every vestige of opposition away. I5ut 1 felt that 1 was safe, in trusting to Jrour forbearance ; tliat I was safe in re ying upon you to respect the laws, and in telling you that Victory would surely come if you would hie patient and forliear ing. The courts recognized our govern ment; -but still a usurpation stood in the way. I knew thai it would not do to re sort t force to remove it ; I knew that in fullness of time, victory would be full, complete and ample- I told you so. I told you that if you would only wait pa tiently, and trust to the justice of your cause, and to the Almighty, you would be successful. And now, I come to tell you that you have been successful. You have now, by all practical recognition that could be given, the government enforced. And just here, let me say to you, that I did not go to Washington to ask recogni tion ; I did not go there to offer or to hear terms of compromise, nor to lay my case before any tribunal. I told them I held my title from the people of South Caro lina ; cheers 1 wanted no endorsement of theirs, and so long, as they told ine that title wasgood, so long would I grasp them byjhe hand. I went on from mo tives of personal courtesy to the President; I went oh as a Democrat, as I am, and I say to you, because it is but justice to a political opponent that I should say so, that Mr. Hayes, consulting his own digni ty, and bjs respect (I hope) for the people of -South Carolinavajulmy self, asked me to make no concession to make no terms, and I proposed no. conditions ; and. as ong as he will follow-out, In cood faith; the policy indicated in his inaigural : 'if he wi!PdT equal justice to all sections in this countrv. and see that the laws are enforced iu Massachusetts as in South Carolina, in Louisiana as in ' Ohio, if he will carry out, in good faith, all the pledges he hamade, as a constitutional President, recognizing no party, nice ' or section, so ong will 1 support him. 1 nave not fought this fight in SoutfirCarolinaf now to let any party affiliations keep me from doing anything that will promote the good of bouth Carolina. w Jv. I wish to say to.rou, forget for the next four years anything fibout politics ; forget that vou are Democrats or Republicans, and rememlter that yoUT are- South Caro-1 linians. Do that, go M i building tip the material interests of., the; State, invite lm migration, snow; the people of the North mac we nave no proscription in our hearts. ' That we wetcomeliim here who comes as a citizen; nd matter ' what his politics may. be, . We, , are striving for the redemption of our State. and. not for the pal try offices of. the Go vernjneur. Then we wilT'see- the era of ' a new prosperity dawn upon South Carolina.'! Labor will be em ploy ed, white aud colored men improv mc--happy, prosperous, , unitetL if you only will forgetj politics for. awhile, and devote yourselves to the State. Now, my friends. We' can gain all the fruits of the victory in but one way, in my judgment. When in August last, I was nominated as your standard bearer, in accepting your nomination, I pledged myself I should be the Governor of the whole people of bouth Carolina ; I pledged myself that I would know no race, no party, no man in the administration of the laws. I pledged myself, and the platform on which I stood declared that every citizen of South Caro Una, white or black, was equal before the law ; and I solemnly appealed to heaven and declared should I be elected I would see an equal administration of the' laws I promised that when -1 was nominated and I re-iterated those pledges time am again, throughout the length and breadth of this broad land of ours. I told the colored men I would fulfill those promises to the letter, that it the party which had nominated me, should nt any time go back on them, if they attempted to take away any of the rights now enjoyed by the col ored people, they would have to find some other instrument I would resign (Cheers.) And I sav again, now that vie torv has come, now that the whole State recognizes the government which has been elected, now that all the power has been placed in my own hands, here where took the oath ot olhce, solemnly swearing that I would obey the constitution of the United States, and of this State, I say once more that I mtend to carry out every pledge, and to be Governor of the people Now mv friends, how can we brio about this con Humiliation bo! devontedly to be wisnetl T I low can we bring jeace happiness, and prosperity to our people We cau do it in but one way, and that ia, you must observe the laws. I here en- join it uMn you I do not issue a procla mation ; I do not give an order but I ask my fiends of South Carolina, the eople whom I have trusted, and who have trust ed ine, and done nie more honor than any people ever did a man, the people whom I love more than I love anything in this life. 1 ask theiuto carry out my wishes. want every man to constitute himself a conservator of the peace, to see that there shall Ik' no violence go around and tell his neighbors, that if there is bloodshed or violence, we shall lose what we have gained. To appeal to them to carry out this policy of ieaee. The only ditlieulty. that seemed to stand in the way at Wash ington, was the fear that when those troops were taken out of the way at the State Honse there would be violence. And they asked about it, and I pledged my honor, mark me friends, I pledged my honor, that not one single man should go into that State- House .unless he has sonie business there, simply to inform the citi zena that I requested them not to go there. And I felt assured there would be no vio lence, or excitement, aud that the laws would be obeyed. Have 1 promised too much for you f (Cries of No !) You have never deceived me, I know that you will carry out this promise I 1ht vou, I be seech you. You have trusted me, trust me alittle longer. It is important foryou,itis highly important for Louisiana, and for the whole country, that you do what I ask. (Cries of we will do it.) I requested the President that the troops should notl be removed until I got here. , When that order comes, let nobody go to the State House. Just let it stand until I want it ; and i will tell you when I want it. I car ried a letter to the 1 resident from a Fed eral soldier who has been stationed in the Stato House. Ho said tho place was filthy and so full of vermin, he wanted to get away from there. I want the lire en gines to play through it for awhile, and I want the convicts from the, penitentiary tp scour and fumigate it, and then we will have a nice Legislature, and all will go on peacefully. The Governor here alluded briefly to the kind receptions tendered him on his way to Washington and return. He was proud of his eople, that their noble ac tion in time of trial had elicited the ad miration of all sister States.. He continued, "your destiny is now in your hands, it is for you to shape for weal", or for woe. You can by imprudence or violence undo the lalwr of mouths, and bring back to us all the scenes of anarchy, misrule aud corruption which have pre vailed. Or if you are prudent and dis creet as you have been, you can soon place-yourselves in a higher and better place. You will see loth races and both parties willing for awhile to forget the bit terness of past strife, and ready to clasp hands aud move on to lift our old State up. You will see capital brought here, immigration -flowing itt,nnd you will And your Stato onee more exercising that con trolling iuUucnce for good in the National politics, which she has so long enjoyed, and honorably employed. Your destiny is iii your hands, and I beg you to be true to that record of the past ; to try every means iu your power to cultivate good, will between parties aud races. I beg the white men to show to the colored men, that what I have said for twelve years is true, that you are the friends they have in this world. I appeal to the colored men to recognize the government which is now firmly established, to trust us for awhile, and as thev are still in the tnaiority, if the'governmcut I have established does not carry out the pledges I Lave made, then throw out all the men in office at the next election, and put in anybody you please. With a fervent appeal to all South Carolinians, native and foreigu bom, white and black, Democrats aud Republicans, to unite in the grand effort to restore the State to its once happy and prosperous condition,, when it stood the peer and equal of any State in the Union.
