A SPECIAL SESSION It is decided that a special session of the legislature will be called to meetabout the middle or end of October. The condition of the finances, the floating debt, the bond case, etc., render a meeting necessary. The fact is, the government cannot much louger be carried on without relief. Mr. Cardozo, nor any other man, can pay two dollars when he only has one. The salaries are due all over the state. Even Lieutenant Governor Gleaves has failed to squeeze his pay out of the empty treasury, and so low is the credit of the state that such straight claims as his and those of the judges, solicitors and auditors of the state are held by the paper brokers in Columbia to bo worth oniy fifty cents on the dollar. Thou the bond question must be mot. Even should the mandamus be refused by the supreme court that would not wipe out the debt though one would think so if he read the wild words of the Charleston papers and the Columbia Union Herald. The claim of the Revenue bond script owners is still a claim that must be met; so also is the clai u of the holders of Parker's notes. Resides these are at least one million of other claims which may be denominated "flou " A fluunmol hr-Komn w (Iwrc. lUg UVUb* iJk UIIUUVIUI VMVU.V fore a neccs.sity by which the various creditors of the state may he met and satisfied. It is proposed to scale the bonded debt?say 33 per cent for the most doubtfull of the bonds; 50 cents for other issues and CO cents for the old debt. All other claims to be put at 50 cent on tho do'lar. To meet these, a new bond must be issued to take up all outstanding claims ?bonds, interest, scrip, notes, certificates, etc., etc. These ucw bonds will contain a pledge for the levying of an annual tax sufficient to pay the interest and provide for their ultimate redemption. The issue of the new bonds being intended to roluce the state debt will not need, the endorsement of a direct vote of the people as would a bond to increase the state debt, according to the late amendments to the constitution. This scheme receives the support of all classes of the community and accords better with the honor of the state than, a repudeation of aDy part ot the debt for which the state is legally bound through the acts of her recognized agents. It is presumed, of course that salaries now due will be paid in full and that the legislature will authorise the comptroller to levy such a tax as will supply funds enough hereafter to pay every expense as it originates. The legislature, iu the past, has failed to meet tho question of taxation boldly. They have shirked the levy of an amount sufficient to meet the appropriations, and have thus embarrassed the treasury. To this timidity in taxation and their boldness in appropriations is due the very bad condition into which things have fallen. Mr. Cardozo would much rather pay than refuse if only he was provided with the means. Contemplated Junction of two Southwestern Lines, For some time past rumors have been in circulation regarding an alleged contemplated junction of the Atlantic and Pacific with the Texas and Pacific railroad on the 33 deg. 30 min. of latitude. A New York Tribune reporter called upon General Fisk, of the Atlantic and Pacific railroad , in that city, Monday, and applied for information on the subject. General Fisk said that although the matter had been the subject of discussion, nothing had been accomplished as yet, although it was not improbable that a junction would be effected at a future date. The recent rumors proba I Li tf.i,rnr | Viy arose imiu vuc i?v? Thompson, Presidcut ot'ilic Pennsylvanir Ceutral, also associated with Col. Thomas A. Scott in the Texas and Pacific, had recently ridden over the Atlantic and Pacific, and carefully examined the road and its equipments. probably at the suggestion of Col. Scott. As the latU r is iu Europe at the present time, nothing would be accomplished until his return. The orignal plan of the Atlantic and Pacific line was to run through the mountains to the Pacific on the parallel of about 35 deg. The Texas line was to follow, as nearly as practicable, the line of32 deg. Under the new arrangement the former will hear down to 33 deg. 30 miti., and the latter up to the same parallel, making a common line to the Pacific from the place of meeting.?Sac. jYcict. The end of a Fond. Coi.lMlil.v, S. C., Aug, 9. To-day we have information of a fearful tragedy which occurred near here yesterday. A young uian named Howell I ? i_?n ?] ! nay K1IICU /XICAituuvi uivnu. ui .1 jrvv1111 on the Wateree river, a few miles from Columbia. The cause of the uufortuuate affair seems to be about as follows: Some time ago a difficulty occurred between the parties and Brown beat Hay severely. A warrant was issued for his arrest, and subsequently he beat Hay's younger brother. On yesterday the lfav brothers were out deer hunting, and Brown approached the stand where the brothers were posted waiting for the deer to be driveu out, and was warned not to advance. He refused to heed the warning, and brought his gun into position, as if to shoot. When 01 ly a few spaces off Hay fired and lodged a load of buckshot in his enemy's side. Brown fell but while on the ground attempted to shoot, but Hay dispatched him by a discharge from his second barrel. Hay surrendered himself, and is now in jail in this city. A CARD. , -E Mr. Editor?: . to As I deem it unfair that "the bull pi case" should only furnish local matter as for one paper in our midst, and that iu the Southern Standard, I conclude-to he ask from you the privilege of referring be to it again through your columns. In the last issue of the same, friend at Johnson with his usual ambition to fu enlighten the public mind stated amoDg or other things the following : SI Hut now the case is before the other ,n Trial Justice, to be tried bv a jury, so Forty-seven witnesses came up frotu Land's end and the country roundabout so of course there is a nice little bill b for the County Commissioners to take into consideration. We believe it is I" a plan to swindle the county. But the i se trial commenced before the greatest }n legal luminary in town. We heard j one patriarchal colored man. his wool . wbiteas theastrachan, positively assert ri! ' that he knew de bull before his moder in war born," and an old lady Ukuew de raoder before de bull war born." Wi All of which may be very becoming to and creditable to the Editor. To my m mind however, uniuititcd in the p; mysteries of editorial life, it seems to tl: be hardly the thing for a person ja occupying the peculiar positon now to held by said editor to give much publicity to his thoughts about white icoul j1( or to put words in the mouths of our a( Colored Citizcus whereby they are U] made to appear mere babes of ignor- KC ancc and simplicity. ti From the language used it appears as though the modern solon, (be rc frequently feels competent to criticize p in matters of law) was present at the w trial and that the counsel aud jurors w had spent their time iu listening to p, senseless twaddle and not evidence, and j; that all engaged in the suit had wilfully fr or unwittingly lent themselves to a h "plan to swindle the county." tl In answer to the same, Bulfice it to 01 reply, that any individual, in any <ji community, can, provided he has a il; sulliciently morbid and uuhumanitrian spirit actuating him perform a w like valorous deed. To my mind how gi ever, presiding as i did at the court in ft which the case was tried, and consider- in iug the character of the witnesses as p they came before me, such assertions rr are cruelly uujust and unwise. a In the first place if we have colored w men among us worthy of, and entitled tl to respect and credit on the witness hi stand, then surely some of the thrifty, intelligent or venerable appearing ones e1 present at the time in question, have " a right to expect, from these profes- ju sedly their friends,, such a statement al of their actions when engaged in a matter of all absorbing interest to them as will not by implication characterize them as warning iu common sense or else honesty of purpose.

Justice prompts me to add to mv i"1 already Icngtlily article that the jury was selected, on the occasion of the trial in nt] consideration, by agreement between on counsel, and that I have the utmost faith , aj1 in their verdict, and that since my so- !

Fighting the Worm.* The Tallahassee Floridian contains tin ?tails of some experiments recently adc iu that vicinity witii a mixture o uris Green and flour to destroy the cotn caterpillar, and which proved entirety iccessful. The compound was one It 'Paris Green to twenty-four pounds o >ur, and rc&ult is stated as follows : Atthe time of the experiment, th< itirc cut had caterpillar in all stages, lie application was made on the centre ws. bv destine the noison over the to: 'the plant with a common sifter, ir renty-four hours not a live caterpiilai xs to be seen.

Two lectfrom the stalk, anc liere the poison had not been applied, j found a sta'K containing about fifteen tcrpillara, green and black, busy eating c cotton ; so numerous were they that } counted five worms on one leaf. We ;re told by the manager that where the i.son had been adpliod a number of tin >rms had died, falling to the grounJ, id were eaten by the chickens, yet the ickens still live on. We examined the t where the poison had been applied d could find no worms, which demonrates to our sati.-faction that even il ey do not eat the poison, the prepara n being distateful, the worms desert.e ])laut and seek more healthy quarrs. A preparation of one pound of Pari? eon and twenty-four pounds of flour is made and dusted in our presence or the cotton containing the worms, fifteen seconds one caterpillar leaped mi the stock and was eaten by tin ickens, others crawled to the main hotly the plant, working their way tc e ground, while others remained in 11 iggisli condition, a sample of which wc ought to our office and in a short time is pest was dead as J lector. Wc have ice been told by parties who visited tills tton in the afternoon that no sign oi terpillar could be seen, jvt the applieahi had only been made that morning, e visited this cut the next afternoon in uipany with Dr. A.

All oi the part ies left fully conneed that it was a complete success. C'lnesdav the first application was ado, and on Friday night this cut was died with a very heavy rain, and still c poison remained on the plant, the ur making a paste which is difficult to ish off. Mr. Pope, one of Mr. P. K. (tten's managers, who has been exjieri?ntinp. reports that after the poison d been applied the worms in the next enty-four hours deserted this cut, and nc could be found. Mr. Islcr, his her manager, visited this cotton, and ports about as Mr. Pope. He also ited that this cotton had put on a new owtli, showing the poison did not eifeet e plant.

In commenting upon - this fact llurjjer's Wctkbj remarks: | It is impossible to contemplate this vast aggregation of money power and ' commercial control in the hands of one ' man without feeling concern for the , result. Neither military, nor political, k nor commercial supremacy can be pushed , beyond certain limits without danger. It would seem as though tho limit in ' this case had been reached.

When this j occurs, not only will the commerce of the four chief States of the North be subject 3 to Mr. Yanderbilt?under such feeble 1 restrictions as our Legislatures may iin, pose?but the whole telegraphic corrcs. nondenee of the country will obey his law. He may prescribe not ouly what shall be the ju ice of a barrel of flour in New York , but also when, how, and at what cost . citizens may communicate with each 3 other by telegrnj li. Of course he will ha subject to legislative contro'. What 3 that will amount to we all know. In the g past no Legislature in tnis Statcfhas ever ,] dared to heard him. He will be a bold f man. indeed, who attempts to doso now, when his resources arc so unbounded and s his power so fur reaching. It was said i that the date James Fisk, Jr., who conf trolled a paltry 450 miles of Erie, running through a half settled country, could on an emergency bring 25,000 votes into the 1 field. At how many voters, then, must s we reckon-thc master of 2,150 miles of i railway through a thickly settled country, f ^ind 75,000 miles of telegraph?

Uutil within a twelvemonth, the Civile i and the Mersey were building and equipping steamers literally lor the whole world. But now the business is languishi ing. The high prices of labor prevent eheop building, and that, with the ins creased cost of coal, has rai.-cl the charges for steam-ship tialfic, and consequently reduced the volume of trade. i The result is that a large fleet of idle stcameres is pressed on the market for i sale, and at declining ptices.
