These o items of deficiency amount to 10,000. [If argues the passage of the bill vvno injing in the Senate for the rcdtie n of thu salaries of public ofllcers, some such similar measure, and also careful revision of the appropria te, so as to reduce the expenses ol : Lunatic Asylum, the State 1'eni ltinrv. and other nublic institutions. i thinks that ft reduction by one nl of prc.sont salaries would not be > great, and is willing that the same e lie applied to his own salary. A7iih regard to the public institu ns, he says:? iy proper legislation tho expenses both the Lunatic Asylum and the ito Penitentiary can be reduced, J the efficiency of both the -inslitu ns be increased.. These are subjects iicii require careful and intelligent luiiuation.

The work o! Touching expenses and removing uses is always difficult, but it is al iys honorable, and, at the present micnt, It is necessary.

Xo man who respects civilization and public decency ean do less 'than denounco those elections j without measure, No dcecnt | man can do less than oppose jlhem, can do less than light I against those who eloctod them j or who acquiesced in them. Do you expect us to do iii South Carolina what you would sooner iose your right nrm than do in Indiana, hut it has arisen here, and you err wholly if you iin wrirw. fluif. voiip livinc here would; for one moment, think of tolerating theso elections. You could not do it, and you would spurn, aw an insult, tUo suggestion of supporting or ac quiescing in them.

Is it treachery to the republican party or 'identiJi-! cation with tlio democracy' toj insist on decent men for judges i of our courts? There is not a man in South Carolina who would trust Moses with $10.

TIj'i: Vl'TV UK I??OKI'K(.T.S Now, sir, I hayo a word to say about what you arc reputed to j have #aid to the effect that "you I already give uj> the State to the opposition/' J'hat result rests very largely with you. You are iilllueutial, able; you bold a commanding position and you bavf; a commanding voice iu our i party affairs. Jf South Carolina j is to*be "given up to the opposi-j ; tion" jt is because you and olh- j I ers whom you can inlluenco fail i to help nie and my friends to nn ; load"?to use a current phrase? : the infamy of these judicial elec tions. And hero .Jet ine speak j plainly . To cry "democrat" at line at this time j? to support .Moses and Whipper, t am a re publican of just as many years' standing as I have seen years of I discretion. I huvo no tendency ! to any other party; no assocja I tion, no sympathy with any oth | er party. * I want' to see South Carolina remain a republican | Stale, but i tell you no party can! rule this .State that supports Whipper and Moses, and to de nounce us who arc to-day de ! nouneing the election ol those J men is to support them. It is in I vain, sir, to say, as the National I Republican is saving, that you 1 have no sympathy with those : elections, that they aro ?I most ( an unpardonable blunder," and) with the next breath declare m that I am "practically identi fied with the democracy," If I have done anything: but oppose 1 bad government and especially to denounce and oppose these ju- j I dieial elections let it be pointed ; 'out. J>ut, until tliat is uum\ to i idenounce mo stud my friends here us traitors to tlie republican j party is to ' practically identify" yourself with Moses and "Wliip jper.
