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 "

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

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

Pacific from the place of meeting.?Sac.

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.
I for one have never believed in any
snch political economy, as engenders
cast aud fosters prejudice among that d<
portion of our body politic, but instead
would unfurl our proud stars and t0

atteution to what I deem republican- of
ism, to wit: The opportunity for every
person clothed in God's image to CJ
develop liU manhood to the greatest Tl
length and breadth possible, according ro
to the mental power and the industry ?'
and perseverance exerted to develop ^
the same. c;i
To furthor consider the quotation, I th
will add that lam not.ad vised as to the a.s
editor's legal adviser, but to judge front
I my humble standpoint, and not bis ,)c
own sarcastic estimate when placing th
me before the community as the 1" 'brightest
legal luminary" therein, 1 ^
sh mid say that he (his adviser; had not ca
attained to the distinction of a Black- th
stone, or else that there was an incom- W(
petency on the pait of his pupil, or a
mixed condition of the cerebral being W(
at the time of receiving the lesson. an
I am forced to this belief simply lie- eli
cause an action to "recover possession ^
of J ersonal property," like that where 8},
the question of title to real property is th
involved, (without fraud alleged,) can
be none other than a civil suit, and as [1
tci
such the costs cau in no way fall upon
the county, and so plain a proposition pr
is this, that an oilice boy of two months W:
ctomlinn in onu Inwcpr'B fiHlfn khmilrl
ft J j in
have learned as much, or else, like the j jr,
son of an English gentleman, of whom J cli
I once read, who had been sent by his j
father because of his stupidity, to a 'jj
noted instructor of youths with the j,,.
statement that he had a talent, but it th
was wrapped in a napkin and must be fii
shaken that it might be developed. ?'J
He was seut to his progenitor with the t;f
assertion that the napkin enveloping \Y
his talent had been shaken and the (-?
talent not found, and so he was retnruei
as useless timber.
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- ! V11
. 1 \v
imirn in this rnnimunitv 1 have not I
met a more able or honest body of ju- "jl
rors than those then present, either be- tli
fore an inferior court as in this instance, A"
or a superior one. ^
In conclusion I have to say that I have 11](
not been accustomed to receiving inucu- ha
dus and peccadilloes as per previous tw
issues of said sheet from any gentlemen, n||
and I trust I have been sufficiently ex- rc,
piicit in my present communication to sU
cause the olfending party in future to gr
put himself ou his merits in that line if t'1'
lie lavs claim to being a gentleman. jt!

Dear Sir :?A few weeks ago an indicated

Therefore, as soon as practicable, wc

d could find no worms, which demonrates
to our sati.-faction that even il

A preparation of one pound of Pari?

Uutil within a twelvemonth, the Civile

equipping steamers literally lor the whole

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.
