Ae impending crisis threatens the nation again, and there is no Helper at hand. It is s drmdftil collapse or the rantankcrous "wab” democracy ou or a bout St. Valentine’* day. This disaster ia certain to follow the canvass of \otes for preaidant. Theie will be oceans of ■alt, salt tears,’and tornados pf load, loud howls, but not a gout of red, red “gosh.*’ The fighting stock are docile. Gen. Wade Hampton appeals to the people of Sonth Carolina to pay him ten plr cent, of tbeir taxes for pitying st governor, and threatens to stop the performance right off—to drop the curtain and douce the glim—if they do not respond promptly.
