The surrogate, in announcing his de? cision after reviewing the testimony, said that While there are circumstances-,that maybe consistent with the soundness of a mind there? fore sane, they certainly, lt strikes me, are not Inconsistent with continued unsoundness where lt has been ones dearly established Tbe onus was upon tbe proponent to remove any dourta upon the subject were lt practl cable to do so. There io no evidence SJ to where the will waa written or its attendant circumstances, or as to where lt was lound, or that the decedent had any agency in its pro? duction pr formal execution, and the evidence of Dr. Ch oat e. the medical expert, ls not per? mitted tobe given. In this Instance we have the general insanity of the decedent estab? lished, and no sufficient proof that at the lime ol the factum there was an interval of reason. Applying the above principles to this state ol facts, lt follows that the win of 1872 munt be refused probate. Tbe will ol 1871 having been daly proven, must therefore be admitted as the last will and testament ot Horace Greeley On Monday, the surrogate received a dis? patch from Isaiah T. Williams, asking for the deo!lion. Tbe surrogate replied that the will of 1871 had been admitted to probate. Mr. Williams than asked that appraisers be ar> polnted ant* letters of administration Issued. W hen the executors Hil tbe proper bonds and comply with the law these letters of adminis? tration will be given and appraisers appointed. -The coat of growing colton In India ls said .to be about alz cents per pound, and it can be laid down in Liverpool at eight and one-halt eenie, whereas lt ls claimed that the average cost to the planter In this country ls consider? ably more than that, and hence the American article in Liverpool has this disadvantage com? peting with ita rival from India. The fluctua? tion* ol the English market now regulate the amount of cotton planting in tbe United States, and if India cotton ls to be made still cheaper the American culture will, ii; is assumed, have to look to its laurels. American cotton, how? ever, is very much superior to that of India, and hence its better price and the greater de? mand for lt. During the period of lessened supply ot American cotton by reason of the Civil war; the production of the India article vas'greatly stimulated, but the moment the American cotton was on. hand freely again and prices came down to a proportionate atandard, the inferior India article had to give way to avery large extent. But lt ls now held that the lowest limit lu price and the highest range in grade of India cotton have not yet been reached, and the fact ls cited that the recent vast expenditures ot tbe East India Government lor Improving and increasing the growth ot this staple have not had Urne to bear their foll fruits. Since 1860 nearly Ave thousand miles of railway have been built for devoloplng tbe cotton lands of India, and about one-quarter of these improvements have been made within two years, and in addition great expense has been bestowed upon the river navigation of the country. -A Washington correspondent of tbe New York Herald on Sunday Interviewed a com LE?:irnun of the Poland Credit Mobilier In? vestigation. The committee, be reports, ac? knowledged that they bad arrived at no defi? nite result; that there ls some doubt about the legal Jurisdiction of ibis house trying mem? bers of . a former Congress, but they would stretoh their powers to the utmost The com? mittee, at any rate, in their report will ex? press an opinion of the guilt or Innocence of each person Implicated, and the punishment merited li guilty. Before Oakes AmeB leit he told one of the committee he would produce receipts from vice-President Colfax. The com? mitteeman thought, there was no chance for Oakes Ames escaplng expulslon, and as Brooks bad never been popular with the Democratic side of the house his expulsion would not be considered by them asa great misfortune lt a similar punishment, waa visited on some of the Republicans. Io fact, Brooks and Oakes Ames seemed to be "marked out for some ritual punishment." Tho committee excepted from the name "mark" Colfax and Patterson, over whom the committee had no Jurisdiction. Ii Ames produced receipts, as he Intimated he would, of Kelley and Garfield, they would be regarded next in degree ot guilt. As to tbe tone of the committee the statement was elic? ited that Mr. Merrick, of Maryland, and Mc Crary are the committeemen who are most di? vided as to the guilt of the accused. He slated that Judge Merrick Is for severe meas? ures; he ls for expelling several members, In? cluding Brooks. McCrary ls disposed to be more lenient, probably because so many Iowa congressmen and ex congressmen are impli? cated. AB yet there Is no serious division, however, in the committee, so that probably lhere will be no necessity for a minority re? port._ Good Rewa. We learn, with profound satisfaction, that Judge Bond, In chambers in Baltimore, bas declined to review the decision ol Judge Bryan refusing the p?tition of bankruptcy filed by certain creditors against the Green? ville and Columbia Railroad Company. The decision of Judge Bryan was nnqnestionably sound in law, and in accord with public polity, and the confirmation ol his decision ends the attempt to wrest the control of the road from the State Courts, where it prop?rly belongs, and place it in the hands of the Federal authorities. We do not doubt that the Greenville and Colombia Railroad Com? pany is able to meet its every valid obliga? tion, and it should not be difficult now to separate the good from the bad, so that the bona fide creditors may have their ?jaims immediately adjusted. A decree in bank? ruptcy in the case of the Greenville and Co? ombia Railroad Company would have been njarious to the creditors and to the public ; it large, and we, therefore, bail the discom- j Iture of the petitioners with unaffected joy. 1 i The Augusta Convention, j We print elsewhere the address upon di- i ?ct trade and immigraLioa delivered by 1 ir. Howard before the Angosta Convention. 1 This city is always ready to second any j movement looking to the improvement of \ .ho connections between the. Sontb Atlantic ports and tba West; and between those ports and Europe; bat it does this with full confidence that Charleston is naturally the chief commercial city of the Southeast, and must rapidly become in fact, wh".t she al? ready ia in the opinion of far-sighted mer? chants-tbe first city of the South. Io battling for the comm .m good of the South? ern States, this city dees not mean to aban? don Its own claims, e.'ther upon the public or the General Government. The Hon. Horatio ricysriSiir. This gentleman passed tbrongn Charles? ton yesterday, and was entertained, during bis brief stay, by Colonel Richard Lathers, at whose residence a number of prominent eli izeos called to present their respects to the distinguished visitor. Governor Sey? mour was very frank and outspoken in his expressions of opinion, and did not hesitate to say that, in his judgment, a better day was coming for the South. It seemed plain to him that the dominant party-whether from inclination or interest, he could not say-were moderating their tone, and show? ing a desire to knit anew the bonds between the sections; and he regarded the approach? ing toar of President Grant through the South, as well as the stand taken by Gene? ral B. F. Butler, In tbe matter of the South? ern pensioners, as additional indications tbat a change of feeling was working, and that a change of policy would speedily fol? low. It is quite probable that Governor Sey? mour will stay a day or two in Charleston on h 19 way back to the North. The Aiken Jlcmorlal. The petition of Messrs. William Aiken, Robert Adger, Wm. 0. Bee, and others, which the Columbia Union denounces as "a "preposter?os and monstrous fraud," is, in its nakedness, a very simple alair. It ls, on the face of lt, a just and reasonable re? quest; for which reason, perhaps, tbe Co? lumbia Union flies into a passion, tears its hair, and insists that "the venal and upria "cipled Democratic presB" shall join it in calling white black, and in stigmatizing, as base conspirators, a number of gentlemen of high position and unsullied integrity. Tbe plain facts are these: In 1861 the United States levied a direct tax upon the States, as States, of $20,000,000. The States "not in rebellion" paid the tax promptly, through the governors of the States. There was no assessment by the United States upon individuals. South Carolina, for ob? vions reasons, did not pay her quota of tbe tax, amounting to $363,670. Subsequently, the United States re-established its author? ity on the coast of South Carolina, and the government officials levied and enforced the payment of the tax in the section under their control. Later still, the whole of the unpaid portions of the tax were levied upon, and collected from, a comparatively small number of persons residing on the seaboard. The result was that the $363,570, due by the entire State, were collected irom a few hun? dred citizens. A email section of country was made to bear the borden which belong? ed to the whole State. The petitioners, who number about five hundred, argue that it is unjuat that they, because of the accident of residence, should be debarred from recovering what was paid by them ia excess of their rightful propor Mon of the entire tax. As between iodivid nals, jointly liable for a debt, there would be no difficulty in establishing that be wbo paid the whole debt was entitled to recover tbe part due by the person jointly responsible with him. This ls a familiar principle of law, and we cannot Bee that what is just be? tween one citizen and another is unjust be? tween rive hundred citizens and the rest of tbe State. The petitioners, moreover, put their prayer in the least objectionable form. They do not ask the Legislature to decide whether their claim is binding. They merely ask that they ba allowed to bring suit against the State to determine: First. Whether upon established, legal and equitable principles, those who paid more than their proper share of the tax, charge? able upon all alike, are not entitled to contribution lrom those who paid nothing or less than their proper share ? Second. Whether upon the application of the said prin? ciples, lt la not the duty ot the State lo cause to be relunded said laxes, in such manner, thai the burden ot them will be fairly dis? tributed like oiher taxation 7 This is a moderate and proper request, and we trust that it will be granted. There is no'qaestion of party. Conservatives and Republicans occupy the same ground. The petitioners believe that they have been un? justly dealt with, and they Wish the Legisla? ture to give them the opportunity of prov? ing, in the courts, that their de mands are well-founded. This is what the Columbia Union calls a "huge job," and, maybe, no better evidence could be had that the claim ls equitable and just. -Brnos ano ?EU?nnncs.
