Tho iToscnt Ditty of the Republican Leadcry.
[From Harper's Weekly.)
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

gladly coinV?iiicj w?th the bettor Ive
publicans to save themselves from the
worse. The Hon. T. Y. Simons, who
spoke lor tlio laxpay"rs, and said that .
while t4thc average values for taxation
belem the war wore over ?500,000,000,
they now amount, at an e.vee-sivo
valuation, to onlv ?150,000,000.
'i in* annual average of taxation
lor ."hate purposes has increased from
?100,000 to over $2,500,000. The
Slate debt has been enlarged from
? 1,000,000 to over $1(5,000,000, and!
pel haps ?'2 2,000,000. I nder the pro- |

State, wliich wields the political:
power, is in the hands of the non taxpayers,
constituting a large and fixed

and persistently refuse the tax-payers I

of their property and interests; that

mitl ex|?t?n?l tlio taxes initio r contribute
to them nor /eel the weight of
t hem; that there exists on the part, ol
those in authority a combination to j
confiscate property umlor the pretence ,
of taxation, and deliberately misappropriate
the enormous sums thus
raised; that owing to this conspiracy
and their supreme controle over the
various dep.u -monis ol' the local government,
there was no mode ot redress
by peaceful agencies within the.
limits ot the State. '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.

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,

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

Thev could not do this bclore,

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,

It is looked upon as certain that the

the veto. Ifeyond this nothing is settled.
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.

tnl. The correspondent of the New
York Herald is informed thai "the
next Congress will show that Grant
has accomplished, by his veto, what
otherwise would not have heen accomplished?a
basis (or a combination
of all the elements ol opposition. 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." An Indiana Republican unkindly
declared that it served the
party right lor taking up "a Democrat"
(Mr. (Irani!) who would "serve J
the party while he had use for it, and
then cut its throat." According to
the correspondent ol the Ronton Post,
the prominent W estern and Southern
Congressmen threaten that they will
class themselves with the strong "opposition

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. Tho majority
in Congress passed the Currency bill
and condemn the veto; the majority
ol the presses ol the country denounced
the Currency bill and praise the veto.

the strongest and ablest newspapers
in the United States were the
champions ot tho Liberal movement,
which was disastrously defeated.
These papers were not then the mouth
pieces ot the people. Are they any
more so now? The politicians have a
direct and personal interest in standing
well with their constituents, and
generally in an a go to swim with the
popular tide. They arc not hampered
by abstract opinions or idle fancies. '

The Proposed New Financial Hill.
The Senate finance committee hel^^ / ^
a meeting to-day for the purpose of
maturing a nu.v iinancial bill. The
new bill, it is understood, will contain
certain features of the old bill
originally reported from the committee,
with a number of important additions.
Among these will bo more
delinate provisions for the free banking
and redemption. The committee
will hold another meeting to-morrow,
and will hear the views of several of
the leading senators who voted for
the currency bill lately vetoed. The
freo banking section in the new bill
the committee agreed to-day should
provide for a retirement ot forty per
cent, of legal tenders in proportion as
the volume ot the banking currency is
increased until the aggregate amount
ol legal tenders outstanding is diminished
to #:j00,000,000. The lixing of
a time for specie resumption will bo
considered to-morrow, and three or
four years henoo agreed upon. Tho
House currency bill will not tie reported.
The committee have assurances
