A JOB IX BONDS.
The dull time from now until the
Assembling of the legislature is to
be employed by the Columbia ring
fn working up a "good thing in
state bonds." The preliminary
steps have been taken. A firm of
New York bankers make a demand
upon the comptroller to levy a tax
for interest in November. He very
obligingly declares in writing what
be will not do seven months hence.
Having been thus furnished with
the basis of a suit the bankers apply
to the supreme court for a rule
to compel the levy of a tax to pay
the interest on the public debt.
The last report of tho comptroller
asserts that in round numbers
our bonded debt is sixteen millions
of dollars. "We do not believe that
any one knows how much the bonded
debt is. Gov. Scott has frequently
asserted that all the bonds which
woro tftVpn im hv Parker, and for
which the new conversion bonds
were issued, were reissued instead
of being cancelled. We have heard
him say that he did not believe that
any one knew what amount of
bonds were out.
Why did the treasury give out
so suddenly. The Moses admin
istration has drawn more money
from taxes than ever Scott did, and
to day the treasury is as dry as a
mnmmy. Why are not the school
funds paid out ? Can not the answer
be found in this bond specula.
tion. $100,000 used as a margin
would carry $5,000,000 at 18 or 20,
the selling price of a few weeks ago.
Should a tax be ordered to pay the
July and January coupons next
due, the bonds, it is argued, would
go up to 40 and the ring could sell
out and clear a million of dollars.
The present movement is the
same which was commenced when
Gary was turned out of office as
state auditor. The ring were
forced to defer their scheme for
fear of losing the power to carry it
out. The election had excited a
little attention from the people, and
records had been freely ventilated.
Since then, by means of the, Charleston
News and a very cheaply subsidized
couutry press, the people
are again lulled into a stolid indiffercnce.
They have been convinced
that we have at tho capital a tolerably
decent "set of scallawags,
carpet baggers and darkies," who
wont steal more than they can carry
away. So well has this work of
composing the public mind been
done by the press that the counties
are vieing with each other to see
which will most promptly pay its
taxe3, and the local *urgan3 of public
feeling" brag that the delinquent
lists in their respective papers is
the smallest in the state.
Everything now being lovely,
the suit is arranged for. The state
is allowed to become a party to it.
The supreme court appoints an
early day for the hearing. Then j
the "tax payers" arc arouscu i>y
the News.
Moses employs Major C. D.
Melton, to assist S. W. Molto\
M. C. Gary, Armistead Burt ami
A. B. DeSaussure are retained for
the tax-payers. The "Taxpay?
ers Convention" farce is to be repeated
under a new name. Some
of the same committee which Gov.
Scott says asked ten thousand each
for making the report of 1870, aro
figuring again as champions of the
tax payers. The result will be the
same. The Tax-payers convention
was a stock jobbing trick and the
only people who will be benefitted
now will be the same set of intensely
high-toned gamblers.
No one need fear that interest
irill hn n:iid on fraudulent bonds, i
* ; - '
The tax will be levied, but there are 1
a thousand ways to si>end money
to better advantage than paying
interest to bondholders. Another
injunction or mandamus will issue !
from our immaculate supreme court.
Delay will occur. In the meantime
having played upon the bond
market until it will respond no
more, the money collected from the
people to pay interest will go into
the pockets of the ring for "claiuus"
Quotes," "scrip," etc., etc.
Then will the News and its Tray,
???A?????1
Blanche and Sweetheart of -the
country press, again advise the
people to "pay their taxes promptly,''
and congratulate them upon
the possession of a "young native (
governor." i
OUR DEFRAUDED TEACHERS
I
It having been decided that no
money can be had from the state
treasurer on the school appropriation
for this county for last year;
and also, that no part of the appropriation
for this year can be applied
to the payment of claims of last
j year, the question arises, when are
! our teachers to cet the money due
them for July, August, September
and October, 1872. To answer
this satisfactorily to them is imposible.
Wo don't believe they will
ever get it, and we trust they will
learn a lesson which ought to have
long ago been learned by all persons
brought into relations with
the state, viz:? Refuse to work a
7 I
day after your salary is in arrears.
In fact no one ought to give credit
to the state after the experience of 1
the past year, and looking at the ,
prospect of this.
The county treasurer has receive
ed one-half the amount due the
county for schools for the year |
1873. This will not even pay teach- j
ers up to April 1, 1873. However, i
as all the schools in this county aro
now closed we are not as bad off as
last year, for wc are not running up
a debt with the poor teachers. ,
Wc suggest to the school commissioner
that he call upon all having
claims as teachers to file them '
with him at once. Let us see just (
what is due teachers, and let us
cease to defraud them of their money,
by inducing them to work when
their is no prospect of paying-them. 1
We also would suggest to him the
calling of a convention of the school J
teachers of the county, for consulta- ,
tion and combination. They might i
be able to do something toward ob- '
taining justice to themselves and

Interesting: Experiments.
At the last annual meeting of 1
the Georgia State agricultural soci- 1
cty, held in Augusta in February, .
Dr. II. R. Cook, of Beach Island, ,
S. C., read a paper containing the i
results of his experiments to ascer- <
tain the "Truo value of commerci- 1
al Fertilizers." He laid off a plot
of ground into ten rows, 105 feet
long and exactly three feet apart, j
In each of nine rows he placed an j
equal amount of fertilizers, measured
by cost price and one row he 1
left without anything. IIo noted '
each stage of development, counted
the stalks, the bolls, the height of
plant, and the amount produced. (
The production of cotton to the
row varied from 7 lbs. 11 ozs, to 3 '
lbs. 12 ozs. In almost every case c
the fertilized row sdoubled the pro- ,

had been added to the soil. Sup- <
posing an acre had been planted 1
and tended in the same way, that t
j treated with the best fertilizer t
i would have produced 1,070 lbs. of j
cotton, while that left unassisted, 1
but cultivated with the same care, J
would have yield only 525 lbs. Dr. *
Cook concludes his very interesting
essay by recommending the use of ;
cotton seed, mixed before planting, ]
with some of the highly-phosphated 1
| manures.

Mr Editor:?
Have the kindness to permit me to
make a correction in my last communication,
number 14-: Speaking of the edunational
privileges lost to onr youth, 1
am made to say "which not the war, bul
the place (!) has taken from them. Foi
"place,'' read, "peace." Perhaps thai
correction needs farther explanation:
During the war our privations were tenr
pered with the hope of ultimate success
but, when peace was made, and we re
turned to our former homes to find then
iu the hands of others; when, forsucces
sive years after hostilities had ceased
we were eye-witness of repeated sales
without the hope of restitution, we pro
nounccd the so-called peace, more cala
mitous to us than the war had been.

. "A roan roust be of a very cold temper whose hoar
doth not burn."
I Addison.
Before entering upon the last of thest
; reminiscences, the military operations ii
which the people of Beaufort and th<
i surrounding islands were personally en
gaged?I will here enumerate, withou
i unnecessary comment, some other organ
, izations, which, (now extinct forever,
- require the more, to be perpetuated it
our records. This should have beer
done in the last number as moreproperb
belonging there; but, as systematic ai
rangement has not been hitherto ob
t served, I propose to enjoy a continuant
s of the license. The nature and purpose
s of these associations will best point oui
, the characters and motives of those wh<
r composed them.
s In 1786. two societies were incorporate!
g in tho small parish of St. Helena for be
nevolent purposes, coupled with educa
; tion. They were, "The Beaufort Socie
r ty," and "St Helena Society." Nex
in this connection comes "The Beautor
1 Female Benevolent Society," whos<
i nsvlnm. in mournful decav.'still affords!
? shelter to sorn j of Beaufort's persecatc<
2 and homeless non-combatants. It is situ
ated on Scott street next to the ice house
fit vicinage for those who were guilty o
1 the unpardonable offence of flying fron
2 an invading army. Having been subjcctet
to the cold and heartless persecution o
the conqueror, its inmates, and anion/
them, the venerable matron, arc dailj
reminded of that clime which gav<
1 birth to all their sorrows. This gloomy
1 dilapidated pile is not, however, the onb
monument of this noble charity, virtuoji
mothers of virtuous households through
out our land will attest its merits. Th<
' original names racntio .cd in the act o
' incorporation (1815) arc Margaret M
! Kee, Ann Barnwell and others.
"The Beaufort Volunteer Artillery,'
of whom I shall have more to say anon
were organized in 1820; and in 1824, i
} company of infantry, styled the "Beau
t fort Voluntcor Guards.''
In 1826 was formed and duly incorpo
3 rated, the "Beaufort Agricultural socio
' ty." There was a similar orgauizatioi
1 on St. Helena island. The names o
' these announce their purposes. Lastly
I will mention here, the formation as lati
f as 1837, of the "Beaufort Male Bencvo
f lent Society." Enough has now beei
' said to point out the moral, intellectua
1 and social character and status of ou
community before its overthrow.
? Nothing remains saTe to notice soim
' of the military operation", the politica
1- J J u
' clinercnces which renuuruu nucu u|icru
- tions necessary; and, last of all, tlie dis
> tress, the unmerited, (not unavoidable,
1 distress entailed upon a people whose on
t ly fault?if fault it bo, ibul tlioy emu
lated the examples of those forcfathcrso
'7f> who so fondly loved their liberties
that they hesitated not, to pledge in thei
t behalf, "their lives, their fortuues am
their sacred honor."
The circumstances of our early settler
. rendered it necessary to cultivate milita
; ryart: Indians had to be kept in aw
and subjection; foreign invasion (botl
French and Spanish) to be repelled ; an<
even daring Bad atrocious pirates to b
chastised and exterminated. In the first
r Col. Barnwell distinguished himself, a
] already mentioned ; and in both the otli
ers, Col. llhett, rendered eminent sei
B vices to the'colony. Appointed by Gov
fc Johnson, vice admiral of an improvise
fleet, he captured in 1704, a French shi
? which he took into Charleston with nine
; ty prisoners. In 171 She took the re
nownod pirate, Steed Bonnctt, with hi
i vessel and crew. In this cngageiucti
the admiral was severely wounlcd.
Although we do not know what pai
3 Beaufort took in tho expedition undc
" Col. Moore against the Indians; yet, s
important an undertaking, with so sue
i) cessful a result must lie recorded, els
2 this imperfect sketch would be close
[J with too wide a gap unfilled. Fortunat<
jj ly, I have at hand, the official report (
o the Colonel, which 1 will here transcrib
at length, being more acceptable, I fe<
j assured, than anything from my ow
pen. Indeed, the fact of its being take
from the "Huston News" of so early
date as May 1, 1704, will render it don
bly interesting to many of its reader
premising that the belligerents consistc
of our people with Indian allies, on th
j one side, and hostile Indians with Spat
t, i-h allies on the other, I proceed to giv
s the account from the News as above met
. tiotied:
"2b the. Governor of South C'nroliiia:
May it please your honor to accept <
this short narrative of what 1, with th
army under my command, have bee
doing since my departure from the Oct
niulgcc, on the lltth of December.
On the 11th of December we caiuc t
a town, and strong and almost reguh
f : limit von rivinir. called Auctvil/e
s At our first approach the Iudians in
fired antl shot arrows at us briskly; froi
e which wc sheltered ourselves under th
side of a great mud-walled house, till \i
| could tale a view of the fort, and consi<
er of the best way of assaulting it: whit
we concluded to he, by breaking tl
church door, which made a part of tk
J fort, with axes, I no sooner propose
this, hut my lueu readily undertook il
raw up to it briskly, (the cneuiy at tl;
saute time shooting at them,) were bca
en off without effecting it, and fourtee
white men wounded. Two hours afti
' that, we thought fit to attempt the bun
3 ing of the church, which we aid, three <
lour Indians assisting us. The Indiai
j. obstinately defending themselves, killc
us two men, viz. rrancis Plowden at
g Thomas Ifale. After we were in the
fort, a frvar, the only white in it cair
forth and begged mercy. Tn this v
B took about twenty-six men alive, and fi
tv-eight women and children. The Ii
dians [our allies) took about as mat
)r more of each sort. The fryar told us v
, killed, in the two storms of the for
twenty-five men.
" The next morning the captain ofS
Lewis Fort, with twenty-three men at
four liuodred Indiana came to fight us,
which we did; beat him; took him and
eight of his men prisoners; and. as the
Indians, which say it, told us, killed five
or six whites. We have a particular account
from our .Indians ofoDe hundred
and sixty-eight Indian men killed and
takep in the fight; but the Apalatchia
Indians sajr they lost two hundred, which
we have reason to believe to be the
1 least. Capt. John Bellinger, ^fighting
bravely at the head of our men,-was killed
at my, foot. Capt. Fox died of a wound
5 given him at the first storming of the fort,
i Two days after, I sent to the cassique of
; the Ibitachka, who, with one hundred
. and thirty men, was in his strong and
well made fort, to come and make his
1 peace with me, the which he did, and
compounded for it with "his church's
) plate, and ten .iorses laden with provis1
ions. After this, I marched through
five towns, which had all strong forts,
1 and defences against small arms. They
f all submitted and surrendered their forts
- to me without condition. I have now
. with me all the whole people of three
towns, and the greatest part of four more.
We have totally destroyed all the people
9 of four towns: so that we have left the
b Apalatchia but that one town which
j compounded with one pert of St. Lewis;
and the people of one town which ran
, away altogether: their town, church and
1 fort we burnt. *****#*****
The waiting for these people makes my
- marches slow; fori am willing to bring
away with me, free as many of the Indians
as I can. * * * * This will make my
1 men's part of the plunder (which othert
wise might have been 100 1. to a man)
? but small. But I hope with your honl
our's assistance to find a way to gratifie
, them for their loss of blood. I never see

" or near 01 a suuieror Draver unng uuuu,
* than the storming of the fort. It hath
, regained the reputation we seemed to
f have lost under the con'duct of Robert
Macken, the Indians low having a
! mighty value for the whites.* *****
1 In short, we have made Carolina as
f safe as the conquest of Apalatchia can
g make it.
' If I had not so many men wounded in
our first attempt, I had assaulted St.
3 Lewis fort, in which is about 28 or 30
, men, and 20 of these came from Pensaco.

I took the first iort. ********

' A STRONG SOUTHERN COMPANY.
b
The only southern life insurance com*
pnny doing business in New fork is the
Piedmont and Arlington, of Virgi ia. Unr
derthe management ofCol. W.C Carrin.ton,
it is having a most successful career.
1 Few companios north or south can show
so good a business, relative, of last year.
The increase of new business in 1872 over
1871 was 412 policies, $124,824 amount
' at ri.sk, and 810,907, premiums. Its total
income receipts were $1,250,904, and
' it distributed among the widows and
children of policyholders the large sum of
'' $446,020. Since the beginning of the
!" new year the rush of business has been
greater than ever, the number of policies
taken out in February alone being 445
s and the risks on them being $1,000,000.
All this is evidence of the high cstiuia?
tion in which this company is held in the
south, and that indorsement is sufficient
r to satisfactorily commend it to the pat0
ronagc of the people of other sections of
'' the Union.

'TAIN KILLER," *
There can bo necessity at this late J
day, for the press to speak in ccmmeo- m?
datory terms of this remarkable medicine,
in order to promote its sale ; for it
is a medicine that is known and appreci- h*i
ated the wide world through. When- ko
ever wo speak of the Pain Killer, as in 22
the present instance, we do so in behalf
of the afflicted, rather than with the vie* '
of advancing the interests of its proprie- V
tors. For various diseases, such as
rheumatism, cholera, cholera-morbus,
burns, spr ains, bruises, and so on to the J?*
end of the catalogue, we are convinced |si
that there is no remedy before the peo- _
pie equal to Davis' Vegetable' 'Pain-Kil- ]
ler,'' and we know that thousands upon ^
thousands entertain the same belief. Certainly,
we cannot refer to the history g?
of any medicine which equals that of the
Pain Killer. It was introduced in 1840,
aud from that time to this its sale, both '
at home and abroad, has constantly and
rapidly increased, and we rejoice at the
high reputation it has achieved, because
this reputation shows that is has been 9,
the means of relieving a vast amount of
human suffering. We hope the present ?
proprietors of Davis Vegetable ''Pain
Killer" will long live to enjoy the prosperity
which they have so fairly won.
