J. Moses, Jr., has been put in nomination for Governor. He is n native-born , white rcalawag, was a violent secessionist, , has been Speaker of the Bouse of Repre< 1 ecntativea, received a bribe for hie in ( fluence in the Legislature iu parsing varl- I oca bills to swindle the State, and he has, in violation of all honesty and law, issued fraudulent pay bills to the amount of one million of dollars I He is a young man, a spendthrift, and utterly destitute of all principle. He now promisee wall, end says he will rsduee the taxes of the State, j repudiate the freudulent bonds, die., Ac.? The Lieutenant Governor on the regular , ticket, is R. B. Gleavea, a colored man in < Beaufort, who was eonvioted a year or two 1 since of gross frauds as Commissioner of Election*, got a new trial and the care was < iVo/. Prond by the District Attorney. The < Secretary of State is H. E Hayne, another 1 colored man, and has been a member of the last corrupt and corrupting Legislature, and no doubt participated in its corrup- i lions. The Treasurer is P. L. Cardozo, for- I rner Secretary of State, a colored man again i and pretty well proven to have cnunlenano- * ed for a time all the the frauds of Scott, Parker, Kirapton, Ao., in issuing fraudulent 1 bonds to the amount of six millions of dol. ' lara. Attorney General S. W. Melton, a native-born white man, who after being a violent secessionist, kept out of the way of the ballets and joined tha Radicals to be elected Judge. Comptroller General S. L. < iloge, a carpet-bagger who came here #llh < the army, and eaid, " he wished I all the niggers were in a ten aore < field, that he might lorn his battery on thorn and blow them nil to pieces"? | lie pretendod afterwards to be a great friend ? of the colored people, and they oloeted him 1 Judge. IIo then ran for Congress, and was bentcn thrco or four thousand votes by Mr. i Kced, but succeeded in getting his seat > through the decision of a corrupt Congress. ( Adjutant and Inspeotor-Qeueral W. H. Purvis, another colored man, Superintendent of Edu- . cation J. K. Jillson, a white carpet bagger, Congressman at Large R. H. Cain, a black carpet-bagger, who has bcon editing a newspaper in Charleston, and seems uncertain and unsteady in his politics. Since writing the above, we have seen f the card of Mr. Speaker Moses to the public, calling upon Judge Orr to prove the charges he makes in his most admirable address to the people of South Carolina, which we intended publishing in full, but has been crowded out this week. This is really very adroit on the part of Moses. Our impress sion is that the charges have already been proved and confessed by the friends of Moeea. But if they were not, is ibis the way for an injured, innocent candidate for Governor of South Carolina to act f Let him explain the charges, and disprove the bribes aud pay certificates, or seek the redress of a gentleman. The nomination on the Bolters' ticket, is Reuben Tomlinson for "Governor. He is a carpet-bavarer who earns to South C*mlln? . take charge ot the eduoation of the ootorod I people. Ho went about ofer the State making 1 violent speeches to the colored people, which ' were calculated to stir up strife and hatred j between the races. In some of bis addresses, , his language was of the most incendiary character, telling tho colored people they could revenge themselves on the white people for all tho injuries inflioted on them ! In other words, they could apply the toroh, which tbey were doing about that time all over the State.-Judge Mackey charges Tomlinson with taking a bribe forty thousand dollars to pass the ' Phosphate Bill. This is denied by Corbln, but we believe Tomlinson was a stockholder i in that great fraud. He is also charged with 1 being connected with the Oteenville Railroad ' swindle. I n point of talents, Moses i s perhaps bis superior, certainly more adroit and I managing. J. N. Hayne, candidate for Lieutenant-Governor, is a colored man, and was one of the eorrnpt members 0' that corrupt Legislature which has disgraced and plundered the State to the tnne of millions and millions. The Secretary of " State is Maaen B. Anew, another e o 1. f , or ml man, abooi whose we know nothing. 1 John T. Oreon is nominator for Attorney j General. Ho is a native white man, who, after being a fierce secessionist, Uireed Rad- f ieal to be sleeted Judge, and whoa* reputation as a lawyer was very moderate in* 1 deed. J. Seott Murray is to be Cotnptrol* * ler General. He la a white mao, but not a , native of Sooth Carolina, a Baptist preach- j or. turned Radical to be elected Judge, but > was disappointed in his ambition once or ] twice. E. P. Oarv is a cor pets bagger, im- 1 ported by Governor Scott, and made a candidate for Treasurer. It is said he has re. i fused, as Auditor, to levy a tax on the peo- | pie to pay the interest on tbe fraudulent < bonds issued by Soott. Parker and Co.

W R. JONES. September g, IMS. . For the Greenville Enterprise Editor of fJL KnUrprito ! I hare aeen the eard of Qea. Moses, (Wing a general denial of tho charges made against him, and I will be obliged to yon for the ase of your eolntnns for a brief reply. On tbe flour of the Moms Conreation, bis friends freelr admitted his over-Issue of "pay certificates, bat alleged by way of eonsaseiHiation as well as apology that tbey were issued to refugees from the Ku Klux. Can it he that when Qea. Moaea was a member of sbat Convention and a prominent candidate before it, that he was not aware of the ground taken for htm hy those wbo represented his interest on its floor? Doubtless Gen. Moaea la the only man on earth wbo oan make out a list of those to whom these certificates beve been issued, aad if he bed done this sod shown that only real employees and Ku Klux sufferers received them, tba apology would have been sustained ao far as It amounts to anything. Gen. Mooes will hardly aay that there ware any Ku Klux sufferers in Anderson, Beaufort, Edgefield or Richland Counties, nor that tbe numerous " pay certificate* " hawked through the hsnki end brokers' offices of Columbia sod Charleston were issued either to this unfortunate class of people or to employees. Col. Merrill fixes the date of the last Act of violenoe as the 9tb of September, 1871. At this time the General Assembly had not met. and the eettiflcates generally bear date in February and March and later in 1872?had tbey been issued a year sooner there would have been less contradiction of Gen. Moses' apology. Again, the Geo. may not be fully accredited as a witness in this matter, hut bis statements against himself are competent, lie admitted to Judge Orr a ' little extraragaace " in the tssee of '* pay cert i Asa tea," and aid not pretend to have dono so for the Ku Klux sufferers, but told the Judge by way of apology that he 'Moses) was fighting the Governor who had the bonds, and the Treasurer who had the Treasury at his back. Now, here are two each goad ; bat is the avoidance worth anything? Suppose it were true that all the " pay certificates " over drawn ware really issued to Ku Klax sufferers, we may aooept that as a confession of fraud In the publie officer, end ask by what law the State Treasury became the charity fund of the Speaker of the House of Representatives T The apology simply demonstrates the shamelessness of the apologist. When most of these pay-certificates were issued, as is alleged, for the benefit of the K K. sufferers, the General Assembly was in session, and it was the proper power 10 make appropriations for tlielr relief, but very bad for Geo Mosee A year previous was the time that that theee poor people needed help, and during that year help oame from anolb-r source than his pay-ecr tifiustea, hi* expensive arms or his "Arms Force Fond " P. J Mose?, Jr., has not jet, I believe, at tempted to explain the ten thousand dollar* drawn by him from the armed force fund, as shown by the sworn statement of Treae urer Parker. The r?al consideration of this little sum must remain a secret in the sacred breasts of the 8peaker of the House, the Governor, an-l the Treasurer, unless they ebose To reveal It; hut the facts whtoh sr# known indicate strongly that its revelation will not be ereditable. Lei us look at them. It was drawn on the 24th of January and 2d of February, 1872, just after the failure after a bitter struggle, of the impeachment movement in that branch of the General Assembly over which Gen. Mosee presided. It teas drawn, too, at a time when the Trees urer bad p aearded. on the railing of his desk, " No Monst at a time when thsrs were no tunde to pey the General Assembly; no funds to pay the 8o|ioito*a and Judges of tha 3t*te. It was drawn f.oro the "armed foroe fund " when no such or KuniuuMu rxixtu, ma none turn nid ex* is ted for more than a year. I shall not slop lo inqoire who Moon?y and L-ggett are, or what branch of tha armed fores tkty re pre rented ; but if it is not anli-Republican lo make such inquiries, I would like to know, for the curiosity of the thing, what was ths consideration of those ten thousand dollars. Speaker Moses* hand writing is well know?, and there are gentlemen of ehsrae* scter who have seen his receipt for one thousand dollars, for services rendered in. I he parsage of the Validating Bill of the Greenville and Columbia Railroad. Mr. Speaker Moses will hardly have the lemer ity to deny receiving this money, and ihal he subsequently received ten thousand dollars more, Irom the same road, for his valuable aid in the passage of the Act to pro* mote the consolidation of the Blue Ridge sod Greenville ? Columbia Railroads. If he wants the proof-, and wants them legally produced, lb* Courts are open to him. at the expense of the State; and this propo silioa has been publioly made since June last I have looked wi>h interest for some ex- j planaiton of tha Roberta' arms traesae' ion. Gen Moe-e, Gov. Seott and Traaa. Parker can doubilee* explain how something over one hundred thousand dollars were lost on the way to the "Roberts' Arms Company." i no i?"j iwo or* not oandidaiea, hot every true Republican will await with in lor act tha General'* explanation.

Valuable Hints.?A regular habit of body is absolutely essential to physical health and olearneas of intellect. Nor ia this all. Beauty of person cannot oo-exist with an unoetural condition of the bowels. A free passage of the refuse matter of the system through these natural waste pipes is as neoessary to the purity of the body as the free passage of the offal of a city through its sewers is neoessary to the health of its inhabitants. Indigestion is the primary cause of most of the diseases of tho discharging organs, and on# of its most oommon results 1* eonstipa* | tion. This complaint, besides being dangerous In Itself, has asaoy disagreeable concomitants?ggph as an unpleuH&ut breath, a sallow skin, contaminating blood and bile, hemorrhoids, headache, loss of memory, and general debility. Hostettar's Stomach Bitters remove all these evils by removing their immediate eause ia the digestive organs, and regulating the action of the intestines. The oomblnatioo of properties in this celebrated preparation Is oaa of its oblaf merits. It i* not merely a stimulant or a tonic, or ao anti-bilious agent, or a nerv ine, or a blood depuren t, or a oalhartle, but all these enrative elements judiciously blended in one powerful restorative. It leads activity sad vigor to the inert and enervated stomach, relicvea the alimentary canal of Its obstructions, and gives ton# to the membrane which lines it, gently stimulates the liver, bracea the acrvea and oheers the aalmal spirits. No ether remedy possaseee suck a variety or hygienic virtues. It is to these characteristic virtues that it owes its prestige as a household medicine. Kxperienee has proved that it ia aa hamlaaa as it is ettcaeinus, aad banes it la as popular with the weaker sax as with the stronger.
