C'oLrMBiA, H. July 31. The Garfield and Arthur ratification meting held to-day in Park is generally acknowledged to have len the largest Republican gathering ever assembled in this city. The commodious and delightfully ljadel grounds were densely thronged by colored men. women, and children, many of whom came long distances to hear atout the prospects of a sjeedy deliverance from the Issmocratie yoke.

County Chairman A. W. Curtis called the assemblage to order, and, after a few introductory remarks, read the resolutions given lielow, and presented Mr. Ramtiel Iiee, of Bumter, as the first speaker. Mr.

ljee said that the Republicans of Sumter Ovmty were neither dead nor asleep, and that they would carry the county by a majority larger than any previous one, in the next election. He advfcated thorotigh reorganization. He' believed that Providence allowed the Republican Party to go out of iower in this State to learn lessons it failed to learn while in- power. He ridicnled Hampton's promises at Cincinnati, and predicted a Republican triumph. State Senator Taft said he voted for Gen.

Grant 36 times at Chicago, and would have voted for him 3ft times more if it had been necessary, because he lelieved him capable of putting down the rebel Democracy. He arraigned the Bourbon State administration in the mnet scathing terms, and declared that tbe Republican speakers would be glad to meet Iemocrat on the stump, if thev come there to talk, and not to hull-dore ana browbeat. The time had now come for the Repub-lirans to assert their manhood, and they must not submit to being counted out any more. His remarks, as well as those of the speaker before him, were greeted with warm enthusiasm. Ex -Congressman Elliott mode an effective speech, and after him K.

M. Brayton spoke for half an hour. Ex-Congressman Rainey referred to tbe deep interest the Federal AiUninistration felt in the Republicans in the South it would resort to 1 all legal means to afford them protection against fraud and violence. Like all the previous speakers, he paid an eloquent tribute to Gens. Garfield and Arthur, and referred to his pleasant relations with the Presidential nominee while in Congress.

W. F. Myers was the lasf peaker. 1 he resolutions were then adopted as follows. amid almort frantic enthusiasm firaotrfrf.

I. Bv the Rsnublicans of South Carolina, that we heartily and enthusiustically indorse.the nominations of Gen. Jaixes A. Garfield and Gen. Chester A.

Arthur for President and Vice-President of the United States. II. That our standard-bearers commend themselves to us by their known political integrity and firm adherence to principles that we recognize with pride their superior ability and statesmanship, and feel confident of victory nnder their skillful, reliable, brave, and determined leadership. III. 1 hat we extend to Republicans through out the country cordial greeting and onr warmest congratulations on the succenefuj issue of the contest at Chicago, in reconciling all political differences, and the unity and perfect harmony secured thereby that we pledge ourselvee to devote our beet energies, con tribute liberally of our means, and to give untiring, earnest labor to the cause we have in common espoused, tnat principles of justice and eiiialirv mav be vindicated- and 'their ex emplars triumphantly chosen to fill the high positions they are so eminently nttea to grace and adorn.

IV. That we denounce with scorn and indig nation the baseless and unfounded statement, made in high that there is defection. in the ranks of our party, and that a large proportion of our number are sympathy and accord with our political enemies. We "brand i a i me wqseraon as raise ana uoeioas, ana sxana ready to nail the base coin to the counter." and to prove, by our unswerving fidelity to those principles under whoee mantle of protection all classes may gather for shelter, high and low, rich and poor, that we know our rights and dare maintain them. Everything passed off harmoniously and pleasantly.

An inebriated Democrat attempt ed to create some excitement by interrupting tne speakers, nut ne was speedily removed from the grounds. TIIE CAMPAIGN IN CLEVELAND. A STRONG ADDRESS BY COL. HAY A METHOD OF SOLVING TIIE CONGRESSIONAL DIEFI-CrXTY. Cleveland, Ohio, July 31.

Col. John Hay opened the campaign here to-night in a three hours' speech that was a strong arraignment of the rwmoTTatic Party The Opera-hrxise was handsomely decorated, and was graced with the presence of many of the first ladies of Cleveland, the majority of whom bad never before attended a political gathering. The large building was crowded, and the ap plause mat came irequently irom the audience showed the deep interest in the campaign that prevails here. The presence of numbers of tirominent business men. many of whom were mown to rarely attend political gatherings, was noticeable.

Whatever may he the remilt from the Congressional bolt that is now agitating local political circles, the large attendance at the meeting to-uight of prominent meniliers of both factions shows that there is no present division of sentiment on national issues. After CoL. Hay's able speech tonight, there were heard many explosions to the effect that the withdrawal of the nominee of each Republican faction, and the nomination of CoL Hay, who is very popular, would be a desirable change, and one that would serve the worthier purpose of removing what might possibly grow in bitterness so as t- endanger the national elections, and that would prevent the election of a Democratic Congressman from the banner Republican district of the State. Under the present deplorable circumstances the election of a Democrat seems inevitable. POOR DEMOCRATIC LITERATURE.

NOT VERT FLATTERING CRITICISMS OF n.ls- cock'b and English's letters. Washington, July 81. Republicans in this city are as much amused by the collection of platitudes which is called Gen. Hancock's letter of acceptance as they are by the coarse tirade with which Mr. Enxlish assails the office holders for whose places the pilgrims to Gov ernor's Island are so hungry.

Hancock still plays the role of flga re-head," said one to-day, and baa published an array of rudimentary definitions which he misrht have taken from some text-book of jsilittcs.

Chicago, July 81. The Timt publishes telegraphic crop reports from all parts of Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, and Dakota. In Wisconsin, the wheat crop is reported as gen erally below last year's in quality and quan tity, bushels being one of the estimates of the total crop. The reports from Iowa are more favorable. The berry is superior to last year, the yield 30 per cent, higher, and the acreage about the same.

The harvest weather has Been good, and no damage is reported in the shocks. From Minnesota, reports of a great crop come in from all parts, especially from Northern Minnesota. The total acreage of the State is put at acres. For two past the weather has been most favorable for ripening the grain, and it is maturing in a magnificent shape, the berry being large, plump, and hard. The total yield of the State put at 44,000,000 bushels, and the indications are that it will be principally No.

2, with a Urge percentage of No. 1 hard. The reports from Dakota are almost similar to those from Minnesota. A Sioux Falls dispatch says: The crop is in fine condition, is ripening slowly, and stands well. The heads are long and well-filled, and the berry is plump and large.

Southern Dakota never harvested such a crop. The average yield per acre is set down at not less than 20 bushels, or fullyloO per cent greater than that of last year. The acreage is larger by 50 per cent than any previous crop. NOTES FROM THE CAPITAL. Washington, July 81, 18S0.

When he saw he I had caught himself in a lie, he finally said that he helped put the two children in the ground. Then he burst out crying, and exclaimed, with a curse "I don't care; let them hang me." When told that he must go to Kansas, he said he would kill himself rather than go there. Hooflan showed him a plan of the house and its surroundings he said it was correct. Hooflan then called on the woman, who said she knew him. She said I never expectoA to see you anyk more.

I don't want to talk with you here. We are captured at last, and they will hang us. You know that is John Bender, and there's no use denying that any longer. I am going to tell the truth. If that don't saye me from hanging, I'll have to hang, too.

I ought to have told the truth from the start. I told them we would be caught if we came back this way on the main road. We were going back East. We had hard times among the Indians. We hardly ever saw white uersons," She was asked where the other child was buried, as Only one had leen found, and she said, after asking Hooflan where the one child was discovered, that the other was buried in tbe south-east corner of the garden.

She said they intended to cross over tbe Missouri River and go back East. Young Kate and young John Beuder were with a team, taking another road. They were to meet in Iowa, ana then some one of tho party was to go to Kansas and dig up (700 buried on old Bonder's premises. The woman claims that she is not Bender's wife. She says Mrs.

Bender was left in the Choctaw Nation, being unable to proceed further, and that she died there in 1870. Hooflan's description of the Bender place agrees with that of other persons who nave Iwen there. The officers are endeavoring to get on the track of Kate and John Bender. Sheriff Gregg, of Dodge County, who arrested the prisoners, is here to-night. He has information that Kate and John crossed the Missouri River several days ago.

The matter will be thoroughly investigated. The prisoners will be taken to Kansas for more full identification. There is great excitement here over the matter. ABDUCTING FOUR CHILDREN. HOW THEIR MOTHER CARRIED THEM A WAT FROM THE GRAT NTTNB IN BUFFALO.

Bcffalo, N. July 81. A most daring abduction of four children took place here this evening. About a year ago M. J.

Between 7 :30 and 8 o'clock this evening, while Sister St Stephen was sitting in an arbor on the academy grounds, sne was startled by the sudden appearance of a plainly -dressed lady, who, pointing out the Cahill children, said she was their mother and was going to take them away.

Upon the Sister undertaking to prevent her carrying her threat into execution, the woman drew a revolver and threatened to shoot the custodian of the girls if she interfered. With revolver in hand the woman then succeeded in getting to the street with the children, and, placing them in a coiipt? that was in waiting, was rapidly driven away. The driver of the conveyance says he drove as far as the stable of C. W. Miller," in the business part of the city, when the young woman was met by a young man, who appeared to be waiting for her.

8he paid the driver his charges, and directed him to go into the stable and tell Mr. Miller she wanted to see him. He went in and, coming out again in a few momenta, found that the woman, the children, and the man were gone. The Police were given have Been unable to track the fugitives. The case created great excitement in the neighborhood of the Academy- a rocxa woman's suicide.

Much excitement prevails near the village of Huguenot in Orange County, a few miles east of this place, over the finding this morning in the Neversink River, of the body of Jennie Cud-deback, a beautiful and accomplished young woman, 21 years old. Miss Cuddelvu-k lived with her mother, a widow. Soon after 9 o'ektek last evening she went out of doors, wearing nothing upon her head.

She did not return, and the occupants of the house, thinking- it strange that sne should stay out so long, went bo look for her. No trace could be found, and repeated calls failed to bring any response. The neighbors were Informed of her disappearance, and a search was instituted and continued all night without success. This morning, while a party of searchers was passing along the banks of the Neversink River, near the missing woman's home, the body was found, lying upon its face in about three feet of water. Miss Cuddeback is thought to have jumped in while laboring under a temporary fit of insanity.

She was highly esteemed. Her father committed suicide in the Newburg jail several years ago, where he was awaiting trial for attempted murder. HELPING THEIR EMPLOYERS. Trot, N. July 31.

GOLD FEVER IN NEW-JERSEY. MANY PERSONS IS MERCER COUNTIES THINK THET HAVE MADE GREAT DISCOVERIES.

Fleming-ton, N. July 31. The reports of the discovery of cold in this part of the State, and particularly in Hunterdon and Mercer Counties, have increased. Of the prevalent belief in the existence of the precious metal by a number of the farmers on the line lietween the two counties, and all through the, Sourland Mountain region, there can be no doubt. Many of them are fairly wild with excitement and elatod with hope.

To the inquirer watching the busy manifestations of workxm every hand, and the rediggiag of old mines, it seems strange that so many partially worked spots should have been so long neglect ed. Copper in quite large quantities has exist-' ed here for years, so tiiat a small village two miles from here is called Copper Hill," on account of the veins of that ore lying all around, and even coloring the beds of the brooks. The supposition that some of this material is not copper, but gold, seems to have originated with a speculator from New-York, who came here several months ago. He had been investigating the rumors about val uable mines near Plain field, and while there beard of the old copper shafts near this place. Coming on a tour of inspection, he discovered traces of what he thinks is gold on the farm of Bloomfield Kire.

lying iust within the bor-' der of Mercer County. Negotiations for tha lease of the land were begun at once other enthusiasts were persuaded to join the enterprise, and operations were at once begun. The neighboring farms were also examined and assays made of the material lound. This was declared to be gold, and hence the negotiations became more extensive, and a lawyer in Hopewell prepared a number of leasee. The leases extend over six months, and stipulate that if ore is found in certain quantities within that, time the land is to be purchased for specified sums, or a longer lease, at advanced rates, taken.

Work has been commenced already on some of the farms, and shaft are to lie sunk on others. One farmer named Wesley Wyckoff declined to leave his lands, affirming that the men were swindlers, aad he would not trust them. He is said to be himself engaced in operating, however. So interested nave the' people become, and so confident of sitcoms," that the little town of Hopewell, on the Bound Brook Road, is already spoken of as the future Loadville of the new gold fields. Tbe rage has extemlad to the Delaware River, and Horatio N.

Ege, a well-known farmer living along the bank, two miles below Lambertville, found, shining particles one day last week which he is sure were gold, and has sent them to Philadelphia to be aMtayed. Many of his neighbors join in his belief, an 1 are already organizing an imaginary company. i THE JONESRORO OUTRAGE Atlanta. July 81. Gov.

Colquitt went to Jonesboro last night with the Gate City Guard, of Atlanta, to prevent any attempt on the part of friends to rescue the prisoners who were put in jail on the charge of tha murder of Millie Johnson, colored; for beating her father and mother, and fatally wounding her brother. Jonesboro was in a great state of excitement over tbe affair all of yesterday. Sheriff Archer met with resistance in attempting to arrest some persons charged with the crime. Seven prisoners were brought to Atlanta by the Gate City Guard, and put in jail here for safe-keeping. Others will probably be arrested.

Samuel Cook, one of the prisoners, turned State's evidence, and implicated all of the others, but subsequently retracted, and said be was frightened into confession. There is an uncompromising demand for a full investigation, and if the guilty persons are found Georgia will have a wholesale hanging. THE TREATY WITH THE UTES. Washinoton, July 31.

The hill led to a vacant lot, in which goats were browsing. Here were gathered mors A uicui a lamnauii toiis at wniung buy their ticket.

A solitary flag floated over the 1w tiding. It looked like the yellow fever keep-away flag of quarantine, being made of a red stripe, a yellow one, and a red one.

On tha yellow stripe was a crown on one side of the crown a castle, on tbe other side a ramnantimonkev- or some such animal.
