I shall begin this f<tcrawl" by telling
a little anecdote < f Tim Hurley,
a native 01 tlie Hub, and now a representative
of the good ]KOplo of Charleston,
who, by the way, is shrewd, and
excessively fond of a j' kc.
A few days since he accosted a wellknown
citizen thus: "1 will wager one
thousand finest llavai as that Mosos
owes every merchant cn Main street,
between the State lloi so and the Columbia
Ilotel."
"Agreed," said P. "Wo will soon
test th* matter." Whereupon they
.stin ted on their errand of inquiry.
'I he first house entered was the large
grocery establishment of Senn & Son.
Said Hurley: "Mr. Senn, I am directed
by the Governor to settle- the little
claim you hold against him: please
iuh nil me of the amount.
Mr. Senn,delighted, rushed to his
ledger, and in the most affable manner,
told Tim that-the amount was first
for groceries, and ?5 which the
Governor had borrowed soon after his
inauguration. Hurley recollected that
he could not pay the amount until tho
next day, when the party went to tho
next store,and so on, until the Colum
Via Hotel was reached.
Every merchant and haberdasher
r long the way had claims against his
Excellency, many of them exhibiting
bandfulls of pay certifioatew which
M <>ses had deposited with them over
t .vo years since.
One poor German, who owns a resin
rant and bar, complained that his
business must soon perish unless the
Governor would pay him for $300
worth ot cigars bought over a year ago.
Hurley won his bet, and now with
bin pockets well lillcd with cigars, he
relates this little incident and offers
a "smoke" to all he meets.
What Moses does with the large
amounts he handles is not known,
Ex-Treasurer Parker says he must
spend at least $200,000 a yoar and yet
he owes everybody, and never lias s
cent upon his "honor."

Motting of tho Tax-payors' Convention.
This important assemblage of the
representative people, who bear the
burden of taxation in tins State, met
I in Irwin's Hall, Columbia, on Tuesi
day, the 17th, at 12 m.
| The convention is composed of the
highest intellect in tho Slate. Without
hesitation it may be said, in truth,
that more working brain is now massed I
in that convention than has hut.
erto assembled in conventions in this
State. Every county is fully represented
except Horry and Oconee.
The convention has gone smoothly
to work with a spirit of caliu firmness
that shows a detorinimation to con- I
aider their grievances in that spirit
of peace for which they have assembled,
to present the proofs of their '
wrongs in such a clear, succinct, vet
overwhelming evidence of facts that
now exist in this State, that the ears
of the high power of the great "Nation
and that sectional part of the nation
that enjoy the right of telf-governinenL
must not only hearths cries of
I t he people of this sect ion of the nation,
that ascendeth up continually with
gmailings that cannot-be uttered, but
will speedily avenge them.
The programme mid spirit of the
convention is clearly shown in the
platform adopted by the convention,
and <ho memorial to Congress, o He red
I
to ihu convention by Col. Richard
leathers, of Churlosi on, for its consideration,
both of wluoli wo append
below:
PLATFORM OF TII1C CONV1CNTION.
This convention not having been
called in the interest of any political
p:ir< y ,all polit ival <1 iscussion or a 11 union
to the (picsiiuns now agitating the two
groat parties existing in the nation
would be foreign to the purposes for
which it is assembled.
jllcsoloed, No resolution or motion
of this character or involving i?ueh
discussion, will bo received by the
convei tion.
Jic.soh cd, That, the convention address
itself to the consideration of the
following subjects:
First. To the preparation and adoption
of a memorial and address, whereby
the people ol the United States can
be informed ol the wrongs which we
suffer by reason of the frauds and extravagance
of our State (Jovoniineiit,
and by the total disregard of the interests
of the taxpayers, who are not
represented, and who are thus deprived
ol the advantages of a republican form
of government.
Second. To the preparation and
adoption of Borne mode whereby just
punishment can bo visited upon the
perpetrators and authors of these
lvauds, and whereby the commission
tbeaeof can be prevented in future.
Third. To the preparation of an
address to the people of this State,

should adopt, ho as ta ameliorate,

ol the heavvburdens which they

> The memorial of taxpayers and cit1
izena ot South Carolina respectfully
she wet h :
That upon the reconstruction of the
State government, and the admission
' of the Senators and Representatives
of South Carolina into the Congress ot
> the United States, they had just reason
. to expect that they would become par;
takers of the lights enjoyed by citit
zona of the United States and other
i Stale governments. They had been
taught by the history ot the United
States that taxation without representation
was tyranny; that our rev obit ion
. nry lav hers nail combined u> resist
I puch tyranny; and they felt assured
, that their pons would never permit
any such system to be fastened upon
) their fellow-citizens. It lias nevcrthcj
less ('.nine to pass that the government
which has been established in South
Carolina, under the auspices ot the
Congress of the United States, lias
1 been made the instrument ol" effecting
1 this monstrous oppression. That de3
partmcnt of the State government
^ which exercises the taxing power is
,? administered by those who own a
mere fraction of'the property of the
^ State. Seven years have now elapsed
3 since the reconstruction ot the State
government, and during all that perl
od, a inajtnity of the member* of the
le gislature own none ol the property
winch is \axeo, ana mo remainder
own no little that their own pay as
members would counterbalance their
whole interest as property-holders,
f The result has been that those who
0 own ih? properly have no voice in the
1 i^overument, and the taxes on property
e have Advanced yearly, until thoy in
s many cases consume more than one

mere raising ae.d expenditure of revenue,
but tnvy prevnde the entire conduct
of this department. During
each year of the cxistanco of the new
State government schemes have Ixjen
dev,se<l tor issuing State bonds, and
Dimming State; debt, which have in
six years raised time public debt from
live millions to sixteen millions, om! |
that without advancing our public
work, or adding one dollar to ibo
public property. Largo as aro th'so
figures there is reason to believe taey
do not reaeim time full sum of indebtednesH,
i 11 as much is it has so far been
found impossible to ascertain the actual
obligations which have been issued.
Schemes of public plunder
have been openly advanced by corrupt
measures and the presiding olliecry of
j the legislature itself have been base
' enough to issue thousands of dolUrs
in certificates for spurious services.
Committees have been found tampering
with their duties, and there is
just, reason to believe that very huge
| amounts of bank Dills, fun led by the
State to discharge her liability, have
i been reissued by the parties entrusted
j with their cancellation by the Legis|
laturo.
In the Judiciary department evils
! equally grievous have been nrodtired

The judges all hold their olliees tor a

but few exceptions, they are ignorant
of the law, and many ot ihem are so
i low in moral standing that few of
I their neighbors would trust them in
private relations. The juries are all
drawn by men appointed without relation
to eharaeler or merit, and are
generally unahla to read or write.
The colored eiti/.ens are selected constantly
in undue proportion, and with
a view to the pay, and the verdicts
are often a scandal to a court of justice.
In fact, the trial of a civil cause,
has ceased to be a trial of right, and
has degenerated into a mere manipulation
of jurors.
In the Executive department all
I these evils culminate. It is openly
asserted that olliees are the subject of
barter; and the manner in which such
I olliees are administered proves that
| qualification has no inlltn nee on the
appointments. In matters under tne
I the control ot a single individual it is
difficult to prove corruption. But |
there is one state of facts which always
stands as proof. A large expenditure
of money by an ollieial w ho is

| doubt tli;it the money must come from
i Home irregular source. Kacli of the
Governors ol South Carolina since the
I reconstruction have been more or less
exposed to these susj icious tacts,
I which in the case of two ot them have
been so prominent as to leave no doubt
of corruption. Under the existing
state of tilings, it is not possible to
expose or punish this corruption.
The governor ot the State holds the
keys of judicial redress against hiinsolt
in his own hands. The judges
ate appointed by his friends; the juries
are selected by commissioners appointed
by him; the very Legislature is
returned V?y election commissioners
appointed by him; ami thus the whole
government is one mass of' self-pro tooling
carruplion.
In most of the States there might
be some chanco of redress through
the ballot box. But here again the
I State Government interposes an insu
j perable barrier. The elections are
conducted by persons appointed in
the interest ol the otlic.ials; and the
return.! are under the 'llwulni feni paI
of the paitic? io jjowoi*. Under such
circumstances, voting is a mere form,
and an election a mere farce.

prepared to prove all that leas 'been

The poor people in the Northern

The honest laboring class are those
who suffer most; honest work they
cannot obtain, to beg they arc

would avail but little, as the good

their charily to relieve honest suffering,
are so often imposed on by the
professional beggar that the hand is
palsied that would freely give. The
wealthier class have become convinced
that something must bo done, and in
confirmation ot their convictions they
are moving with that alacrity that

Mr. Editor, had you known the fact

When the tax-levy bill was on il

No reply is necessary to the above;
the open confession that "the bill to
extend the timo for the collection of
j taxes," was purposely kept from the
knowledge of tax payers, with a view
"to scare the people and force the colj
lection of taxes," is sufficient proof
i that the Legislature could not trust
the pcoplo with, to them, this important
knowledge that would at once
i have relieved them from harrassing
i thoughts by day, and night-mare by
night, from which they awoke with
the picture of ruin staring them in the
