GIFT OF CHARLESTON LADIES. ? -r.T>?M?AVtC?a WTTMPAQTm "RT XHJ5 ?? - - A~fi? r-ir, ,, A TREMENDOUS CROWD OF CI| VILIANSrrTHE GOVERNOR MADE ONE OP THE HAPPIEST EFFORTS OF HIS LIFE?A SPEECH THAT IS MEATY WITH PATRIOTISM. Special Dlsd&tch to the Int?Uiaenc?r. CH.UtLBflTON. W. Va., August 7.? The stand of colon donated to the Second regiment by the patriotic ladles of Charleston was given to the regiment last night at 7 o'clock. The presentation took place at beautiful Camp Atkinson In the presence of three thousand spectators. Governor Atkinson made the presentation speech.. Tie governor was at his 'best and made one of the finest of hla usual good addresses. < ?1 of the Second regl menu accepted the flags on behalf of his regiment In a peat but brief addree*. The stand of colors consists of two flags, the United States and state flags. Both are fceautlfuj and no regiment has prettier or costlier flags. At the conclusion of the speeches three cheers were given for the Second rtfgltnent, the governor of West Virginia, Captain Burrls, the mustering officer, Colonel CatfteeJ and others. Governor j Atkinson's speech, which was frequently and heartily applauded, was as fol- j lows: . I Soldiers of the Second regiment, W. Va. Infantry Volunteem:?This la an : auKpicious occasion. Tou are soldiers . who have volunteered to defend our flag and constitution against a foreign foe. You nn' patriots, and the world will ro- : cord you as nuch. The valiant deeds of rfin if vau. on the bat- J . u SC1U1C1 M*r?u? tlefleld are brave and true, you will be ' reworded for your acts, and your ' achievements yill go Into history. Do not forget, my countrymen, that the 1 people of this great republic will not J fall to reward their soldiers for their ev- J cry act of heroism and valor. 1 The achievements of the American 1 armies, my friends, are of the most glo- 1 rlous character from the days of the ( Declaration of Independence to the pres- ' ent time. They Illustrate the courage, < endurance and loyalty of the genuine 1 American citizen. They show to.all the 1 world what an Intelligent, educated, < conscientious class of people can do. i Naturally we feel proud .of the success < of our armies; and when we consider re- 1 suits, we are struck with wonder over 1 the exhibition of the rare qualities of our 1 army navy whenever called forth by the 1 strenuous conditions that surround t them. In the present war with Spain, I we have every reason to be proud of our ' fellow-citizens In urras. They have add- I ed new glory to the American name, t They have met and overcome the diffl- ! cultirs whlcb stood in their way, and J our country Is now content to enjoy to ' the full these reccnt splendid exhibitions \ of American manhood. We are Anglo- j Saxons, and they ore the greatest raco | - - tliatn. I . that has yet innaDiieu mis biuuc. ry tells us that the Anglo-Saxons have never b?-n defeated' In war, and I do not believe they ever will be defeated. They are an educated, brainy race, and no one can deny that "knowledge Is power." Even mortar, my friends, Is bolter when mixed with brains. There is a time, my countrymen, for war and a time for peace. Both cannot exist at the same time. War 1s pitiless. and strikes to hurt. Pity is not < for the enemy until he Is conquered. I < said a few days ago in this city in pre- : sen tint? a flag to a company of volun- J teers in the present war with Spain, that Spain was foolish to allow this war to I be?in and the* she is doubly fooMsh to allow It to continue. I desire to reiter- * ate that statement to-day. She seems ] very recently to have caught the force of this idea, and I hope will profit by it. ' The Spaniard is brave, but he is at the , same time a blow-hard and a braggart. We waste time when we parley with hlra for peacc. The only way to settle him is with the havonet. bullet and sword. The proper way to dispose of him Is to unhorse mm end eel our heel upon his aesophagus. . When he Is down he will squeal, but not before. The best way to treat hint Is to squeeze him until he squeals. He Is squealing now. but he will squeal louder before "Uncle Sam" let loose his grip. The foolhardy Spaniards began this war. I feel like the little boy who had a fashion of unduly scratching his head, i His mother told him one day that she was going to entertain company at her home, and1 the urchin therefore must promise her not to scratch his bend, and specially at the dinner table. The boy held out the best he could as to his promise, but broke over at last. His mother took him to task about his headscratching; and his defense was: "Mother. they began on me first" So it Is with Spain in the present war. They began on us when they blew up the Maine and killedi outright two hundred and sixtynix of our unsuspecting sailors. Before we get done with Spain for that awful crime, we win make her realize Che enormity of the orime. From the opening of this war to^tho present. our army ana nayy nnvr one continuous line of Victoria*. These Mrtories exceed the hulling at Llsaa. They put thf battle of the Yalu In the shade. There la more drama In them, ther* are episode* more spectacular, and Incidents more sensational than in any engagements since the battles of Thermopylae and Trafalgar. As achievements they are unequalled, as result8 unexcelled, antf as chapters In modern warfare they will thrill generations to be. The Spaniards cannot shoot. At best they can only "rlddie the Ufa:" while every time an American cannon goes off, a Spanish ship goes down Into the pea, or on land a Spaniard bites the dust Before this war Is over, their niancos and Cervcras and Weylen and 8agastas will have learned Rome sense. They will have learned by experience what they should have learned from history and current event*, that a buz-saw Is dangerous, and that an educated nation of Anglo-Saxon patriot*. cannot be defeated by wind or threats of bravado, or by mustard-seed shot. 4 Hut, my friends, the world must live and learn.

When the Buddhists, as they aimed to do, reformed the ttrahmln faith, they laid down six transcendent virtuesalms, morals, science, energy, patience and charity. These were their steppingstones to eternal repose. A thousand years later Constantlne espied the flumlng cross In the mid-day sky, and while that emblem of faith ha* been carried In triumph to every civilized spot upon this globe, our struggles toward a higher and better estate upon the earth are opening the door upon tho future, so that all of us. If wo desire, may see within. Let us thank God, my friends, for this unrestricted vision; and let uh pledge ourselves anew to rear to these patriots of ours this flag of state until Its towering monument shall catch the first rays of the rising, and the last rays of the netting sun.

NEW YORK, August 8.?The tone of the stock market to-day continued very strong and confldenL The stream of money flowing into stocks and tonds showed a steady augmentation. The movement of the large concentrated wealth, which took the Initiative during the week, continued and the fol- ( lowing thus invited showed Increase. The two hour's session of the stock exchange was full of business and the demand was eager for a large list of < stocks. The preference Is decidedly for the assured dividend paying Interests , as yet, bat it was influenced by the 1 possibilities In some cases of dividend increases, and showed a tendency also j to overflow into non-dividend paying stocks, on which there is fair prospect of future dividends by reason of growth of company's earnings. The grangers continued the favorites, but Burlington * fell slightly Into the background to make way for St. Paul and Hock Is- 1 land, the former rising an extreme 1% ] per cent and t)ie latter VA per cent. 1 Dealings in these stocks were very large, 1,000 share blocks frequently 3 changing bands to the powerful specu- lative leaders who have chosen this 1 group of stocks to operate on first, be- J cause of the dominant Influence it exer- I clses on the whole railroad list. Noth- ' lng in the day's developments was < more Impressive than the pause In ac- I tivlty Just before the close. The buying t was apparently stopped to test th" i tendency of the market. Recessions of i H or K per cent In prices promptly put 1 a stop to offerings. There was no pressure to realize even by small room 4 traders. Considering the week's rise In i the prices, the firmness at the close was < remarkable. Traders are prone to close i outstanding contracts and take profits, , whether on the long or short side, in anticipation of a Sunday interval, but ] no disposition was shown to sell out to- < day. The heavy expansion in loans i shown in the bank statement Is mostly { due to tne awakened stock excnange activity. The net Increase In cash of something over $1,800,000. was largely from Interior receipts, the sub-treasury'a daily debit balance being still offset by payments on the loan account. The resulting Increase In deposit* raised the legal reserve limit by $.1,842,875, which the cash Increase failed to cover by $2,011,475, the amount of the decline In the surplus reserves. The activity In the Iron trade Is one of several signs of Industrial and trade revlvul which together with the movement of crops Is expected to give largely extended uses of money. There will undoubtedly be large embarkations of capital In Porto Rico, Cuba and the Philippines. Confident expectation of such demands for monej- must be looked to to explain a present Import movement of gold, In view of the present plethera of money.

CHICAGO?Scarcity of receipts and active cash demand advanced wheat toilay. September left offTic higher and December V4@%c. Corn closed Vic lower. Oats lost He. pork, lard and ribs unchangd. Wheat started very strong, September opening at from 67%c to 68c, against G7*4 ?67%c at last night's close. There was no appearance of any Increase In the movement of wheat and Liverpool sent higher quotations. Showery weather In the northwest gave the bulls a further opportunity, as the trade under present conditions was nervous alwut the possibilities of a wet harvest In that section. The demand for the limited offerings in the sample market was most active nnd at from 2 to 3e over the previous clay's prices. Orders for round lots for shipment were on the, market at a Hllirht premium over the carload price. Chicago received 141 ciirs against 1 125 a year ago, and Minneapolis unci Duluth 68 against l.'S lnnt year. Atlantic port clearances of wheat and Hour for the last twenty-four hours amounted to 320,000 bushels. lleerbohm estimates the world's shipments of wheat and llour to Europe for the week at G.600,000 bushels; September opened >fc@%c higher at 879t@G8c; rose to 68"iic and closed at 68?* C?G8V*e. December begun Vi<Hiic up nt 66^66Hc; sold up to 67c; then declined to <?G1/4?66^hc bid ut the close. Corn received some assistance from the strength In wheht and also from the Kansas report for the month, showing a drop in conditions of 24 points, compared with that of n month ago. The weather was acting kindly to the crop < and It was clear that such of It as had 1 not been ruined past redemption must * be rapidly improving. As a result the I market only maintained, a show of 1 strrngth for about half an hour. After I that there?*vns more for sale than there J were buyers and prices gradually work- ' ed off. September opened higher t j at from 33Vfc@33%c, which Immediately * I brought It under the influence of calls. c Near the end of the session It got a:? low ^ a! 32%fo33c. but reacted a little aud clos- * ed ut 33Vic with sellers. Oats were Ann early, but remained so ( oh long ns corn showed strength. There f were only a few buying orders from the j1 country and all were filled early. Sep- 1 tember opened HCTUc higher at 21-%c, rose to 21ftc and declined to 2l&c at the close. A light run of hogs and the strength ' In grnlns started provisions hlghfJr. Af- j ter the opening spurt, however, the mar- * ket went practically to sleep until the * noho with which the grain markets I closed woke It up for two or three mln- c utcs further exercise.
