Wo do not know \vh:it the commit ice upon ilic Jtnitr:irv may rop< ?! to I he House ot Kcprescntali vi s in regard to the statement ot the tax payers of South Caiolma. Hut everybody knows, and those who do not know suspect, the. real condition of that unhappy State. lYi\:ito information eontinns p ddio report that a more deplorable .situation can not well he imagined. It does not dispose of the subject, to say that the former voters of South Carolina brought the evil upon themselves. Hvil enough, iudeed, they did bring, and it would be long, under tlie most favorable circumstances, before they could hope for relief. Hut the State should stiller no t vil which Congress, or t he Kxeeulive, or the Hepubliean party, or public opinion can rightfully and lawfully j remove. Judging from the bout iuiormation that we have, we ?Io not believe that the movement of the taxpayers is, in the ordinary sense, merely political. It is very probable, for it is very natural, that they do not feel kindly toward a parly under whoso ascendency t hey are, us tin v think, robbed. l>uL I heir appeal to Congress and to the President shows that they .a,....ut. it.... i -1 .

'The condition ol tilings in South Carolina was exceptional anil abnormal. It bad never arisen in any other Commonwealth mice the advent of the American Union. The republican torm ot government as contemplated by t ho trainers oi the Constitution, and guaranteed by its fourth article, d'd not exist in , the Slate. The power of Congress was invoked, because those who conspiled together against right deluded their misguided followers by prolessing .to have a charter tor their misrule :md e.nrriii,lb n nnib ? i ln> lion of Congress, the Executive and the Adminisi ration." He closed with un earnest appeal lor a committee to investigate, whereby the true silnation ol alfairs in South Carolina might be made known to the whole country, and it might be ascertained whether this conspiracy and combination, fatal to the well.ire of every section, exists, and that a remedy commensurate with the evils might he applied. When the Republican party adopted -the policy ul reconstruction \s liich tbesiluation demanded, it was seen and Irankly acknowledged t! at great risks were taken. One of the most obvious was the possible mastery of the new m ijorily ot the voters by sharpers and demagogues, who would m. k all their action under the name of the party, and repicsent all opposition as proceeding from sullen rebel Is. This is what we now see. And can nothing he done? Are our resources exhausted in saying that it is all very sad, and that nothing can 1> < done about it? The fundamental conditions ol reconstruction, especially espial suffrage, its corner-slope, will ol course remain unchanged. l>ut why should Congress, or the 2'resMent, or the intelligence ot the Republican party be dent or blind to the serious si die ring and wrong which iindoiiiahley exist in the State? It is iroin i the dominant party, that relief can alone come, For the situation is a such, us we have before represented, that i( the colored voters could have plain evidence that the Republican party ol the country, the Executive, and Congress did not sustain nor ;\\prove the leaders who mismanage the Slate, and it this could be eertili"d to the general government in the State, the beginning of relief \v? ml be preemptible, The remedy is not a matter ol theory, but of praelieal states* in an ship, of skilful administration. II the 1 'resident and Congress were firmly resolved that the enormous corruption ami misiulein South Car olimi should cease, their disposition would soon bo known in the State, and every honest, psliiolio citizen in it would bo inspired to eo opemto heartily. First lor the welfare of the country, then lor the interest of the party, the Administration should ran^o itsell in sympathy with those who are wronged in fc'outh Carolina, and to do this end we hope that the judiciary committee will recommend the investigation which is asked. o * .? ij The Veto ami the Ibaiuvs Outlook. | \ cv.'s and Courier.) The veto ol the ( urreney bill by 1 hvsdent (Irani, and the eonseipieul failure <?f the bill to Income a law, will, doubtless, affect seriously the political fortunes ol the leaders ot the expansion and hard-money forces; but the | general public are more interested in considering what effect the veto is likely to produce upon the trade and business prospects of the country. The Currency bill, as passed by Congress, allowed an iucreas of vlo,000,000 in the leipd temb r circ ulat'.on and of 10,000,000 in the National bank notes; but, as we have explained on a previous oc< a.-ion, the bill roiili nod on the Treasury (with respect to the legal lenders) n<> other authority than rl at whic.di the President and Secretary <d the. Treasury, in their own opinion, possessed already, nor was it certain or necessary that the additional legal Lenders which were authorized would bo issued; and in the ease ol the i Mitional National bank notes, it was shown that United States bonds to the par value of one hundred dollars must be withdrawn lYom the market lor every ninety dollars of new notes which might be issued. There is very little, ii any, expansion in such legislation, and the Comptroller of the Currency took the ground that the bill would really cause contraction, through the operation ot the clatne requiring the National banks, at non-redeeming points, to retain i:i their own vaults a large part oi the reserves which, under the old law, they were, authorized to keep in New York. li was, indeed, dillieult to see w hied) has been ve toed, coulel ad\anoe the cause of the expansionists, or bo a hugOear lo the opponents. there was, however, good nnson to believe that the hill ? in spite of the howls of New York and lloston?-would have been a positive benefit and relief lo the trade of liie nation. Trade will adjust itself to any settled condition ol ailairs; the one condition which it dreads is that ot uncertainty. The currency bill, in settling the financial question lor some time to come, gave certainty to business and coididenec to the mercantile community. in that lay its value. The merchant and dealer knew the best or the worst that they might expect, and, as soon as the lull became a law, they could have gone busily to work, on . i...:.. .. 1 ! i i - Linn vkii:iivi'? aim in wicir counting rooms without fear Unit, gold would tall to par or rise li fly per runt, premiuin. Thev could not do this bclore, i.or can they, thanks to Air. Grant, <lo it now. 'liio whole question is reopnien. A veto, such as that which astonished and amused the country yesterday, will not cause Gordon and Mcrriinun and I<o<.;an and Alorlon to abandon the effort "to relievo the conn try" bv increasing the paper money in circulation. li is more likely that they will he exasperated than panicked, and the currency question, in I ' some Conn, will be a bone of contenj lion lor the rest of the Congressional , session. And, the mean while, trade will be stagnant and business will bo dull; because merchants and dealers cannot know what the I'uturo has in store tor tliem. In this lies same part of the injury done by Mr. Grant to the people at large. And there is more behind. Reasons cannot be found where none exist, so that it is hardly worth while to try to find any sound reason for the Presidential veto. It appears, howcvci, to be the idea of the President that the Currency bill perhaps would cause inflation, and perhaps cause contraction. T11o bill was supported en the ground that it would give increased circulation, and i' it did not, in practice, give inflation, its friends would clamor for more currency. Therefore, the bill is vetoed. Not because of what Air. Grant knows it to be, but because of the possible clamor ol the friends of the hill, if it did not benefit them as much as they had expected. That is the wholo ground of the veto. Ol course there are in the message some new economic axioms. One is the paper money "is valuable exactly in proportion to the amount of coin that it can be converted into," Theretore, Air.

The veto was, to both hardmoney men and inflationists, as great a surprise as Mr. Crant's nominations for Cabinet ollieeis, or any other of his eccentric acts while President.

The correspondent of the New York World was told by a Republican member that ''it would he impossible lor Grant again to get the vote ol a single State west of the Alleghanies and east of the Rocky Mountain*." Senator Cameron, of Pennsylvania, informed the correspondent ol the Now York Tribune that the action ol the President "would alienate the great States of the West, on which the Republican narty has so long relied, and would not save the Pastern States, sueh as Connecticut and New Hampshire, where his veto would he approved." "1 am not sure about Pennsylvania," said the wily Senator; "it will be harder work to carry that State than before."

The session of Congress will pass away without any beneficial act of legislation for the people." These reports, it. must be borne in mind, are made by the correspondents of the very newspapers which are most vociferous in applauding the veto; so that it is safe to assume that they represent correctly the drift of opinion in Washington at the end of last week. Hut while the supporters of the currency bill in Congress are sorely chagrined and doom the inconsequential President to instant destruction, the principal newspapers in the country, irrespective of party, are outspoken in their approval ot what some of them call as important a victory as that of Appomattox.
