I That Mythical " Armed Force.'* In February, 1869, the General Assem bly passed a resolution authorizing thc Governor to ann and equip a company of one hundred men for thc defence ' of the State. Under this resolution a body of constabulary was organized, and a large sum of aioney was expended. There'be ing no further use for the " armed fprce,"' if'there ever was any. it was suppclsed.-to be disbanded. It appears, however", .that since the first of November last, $82,423. . -30 have been drawn from the State Treas ury on account of this very armed force : this huge disbursement being made, as Justice Willard of the Supreme- Court says, " in a year when no necessity for a aort on tho part-of the State to military force is known to have existed, and when die resources of thc State arc inadequate tx meet the current, expensesjaf the gov ernment, orto provide for a" proper ad ministration of justice." . For our own part, wc do- not believe that the Armed Force is in existence. We believe that the money was corruptly used, by Governor Scott in staving oft the im peachment resolutions last winter.

As a supporting force to the expedition, Hubbard had along Co ? nimbus Cranford; Giles Good and i??l Palmer, three ?f thc most notoriously in famous and lawless negroes m die country. After the*}' were relieved from duty on Wednesday morning; and while they were retorning'home, they took occasion to call it thc house of .Mrs. Piv-s Estes, whom they insulted and threatened with their loaded guns. From here they passed to 1 ?ie residence of Mr. E. JJ. R ?bins, and, lu! gentleman being away from home, hey attempted to go into his yard. When ordered by his daughter not to do so, they insulted her and leveled their guns af lier. A detachment of cavalry, ander oom mond of Lieutenant .E. 6. Godfrey, was assisting the doughty.marshal on this raid, and thc Chester"Reporter, which publishes the above d?tails, aids: "In *justice, to Lieutenant E. S. Godfrey, who was in command ol' tho cavalry, and whom we know and respect a* a gentleman, we are assured by our informants that the soldiers had noding to do with the breaking open >t doors, throwing sick children about, &c. Lieutenant Godfrey, we aro sure, would neither do anything of thia kind himself nor would he suffer it to be done by any one under his command. Hubbard was in command of this expedition-the cavalry v/ere only along so as to give thc civil authorities assistance in case any should be heeded-and upon Hubbard rests thc whole responsibility for everything." THE THIEVES IX TROT?BI,E.-Th*? head thieves in Columbia are in trouble. If we ?ay judge from what is transpiring in ''olunibia before the courts, and the disclo . nres recently made by men who are in po s .ions to know, we may at ?east hope that tb'-don of thieves in this State is ina f .ir way io be punished. The attempt, by mandamos, to compel Secretary Car duzo to affix his seai to more conversion bonds, has brought forth from that func tionary a manifesto in which ho exposes some of the rascalities of the Financial Board. . He shows that six million of fraudulent, bonds have been used already, and hence be de-?ines to seal any more unless compelled by tho courts. On the "showing made by the Secretary of State and his counsel, 'ho '-..url refused the mandamus. Enough Has been established to warrant the belief that some of the omefs* thieves in Columbia can be crimi nailv convi.T'c-.l before 'he courts. Efforfs are being maue t? that end.. We trust they may be successfully prosecuted, ami that the guilty parties maybe convicted und frani?erwffl* from their present quar ry - io 'he penitentiary, where they can - is? themselves cracking stones lest' d ol ?* iing the people's money,-r-iu/i^s-J, tree Star." . .

A " Wall street man" writes that it is a mistake to suppose that Wall street is opposed to Greeley. He says that Com modore Vanderbilt, the heaviest operator in the street, goes for Greeley; and so does Daniel Drew, tlie Methodist specu lator, and so does Anthony Dimock, the great steamship, owner, and the boldest of all the young operators on the stock Exchange; aud so do Davenport, and Van Schaickfand hundredsof other bulls and bears. ' The Hon, Galusha A. Grow, for twelve year9 Republican Congressman from the Wilmot district of Pennsylvania, ?nd the Speaker of the House during hi9 last term of service, has formally repudiated Grant and d'-c'iarcd for Greeley. Mr. Grow's record us one of tue earliest, most earnest and most consistent Republicans has given him an unquestionable right to rank* with" thc ablest and purest- lead ers of his party. Tlie veri?rabje Jame's Watson Webb, of New York, has written a letter in favor of his old antagonist Greeley.' Thc names of three Democrats were called from tonVustones ami 'made to flo duty at a Wisconsin Grant meeting. A fond father in North Carolina, who has rejoiced in the advent of uiiie daugh ters, recently had his firs' son born to him, and signaled the event by naming him Horace Greeley. . Ex-President Andy Johnson made a speech at Nashville, on tho 17th, to about throe thousand poople. .It did not vary much from his Knoxville speech, though more elaborate. He referred to thc gen eral preference fur military men for office, and warned U:e popple against it as ul' evil tendency ; and while speaking j of amnesty asked amnesty forJiimself. It i> inferred from this that he desires thc nomination for Congress for tu a State at large. John Morrissey is ottering to-bet that Greeley will carry New York, without counting tho vote of either New York eily or Brooklyn. Ila nlso blfiirs to bet that Greeley will have forty Jo spare in the electoral College. Wm. J. Gillingham, President of ibo Republican Invincibles nf Philadelphia has resigned li is office and declares fur the honest wood-chopper, ls this thing never gol uig to stop ? Grant is ready to clasp hands across tho bloody chasm willi the ex-rebel who will vote for him. But he i< disgusted at the thought of Greeley doing sucha tiling. Colonel W. it. Myers, of Charlotte, North Carolina, who entertained Secre ! tary Bout weil when in that placo on uh recent stumping tour, hos now repudia ted Grant und declared his intention to , vote for Greeley. ; . Ex-Governor John C. Edwards, of Missouri, now nearly eighty years of age, ana ;ui ultra Democrat, nus written a lotter to Colonel Peter Saxe, of Califor nia, winch gives a most sensible view ul thc situation. Ho says: "I am against all banks, all iironopofies, all subsidies, any and ail tariffs, high salaries and heavy fee bills, and in favor of direct tax ntion. With nil this, I have no trouble'in supporting Greeley. In a desperate tight, wo should pick up thc best club to beat our enemies over the head."

In referring toM 'South, he said : " If it is necessary to l?j. the blom chasm, aa Mr. Bout well said; lip?br? pea can be restored, let us throw thu Grs parly into it, [great applause;] with tl thieves and those who have ' violated tl Constitution and thc.laws, with those wi have violated their official oaths and pro tituted their office to personal ends/wii those who have held the highest offices ; the Government in order to secure the personal welfare; What can induce us 1 reject the hand extended1-by the Bouthei people?

In conclusion, the Srmator addressed himself particularly to his audience as Germans.

The'1 bonds would be payable in five and ten years. ' Subscribers of.land would not even bo disturbed in tho'uso ahd cultivation'Of tho land subscribed before the expiration < of the mortgage, Ind at that' time every one would have the privilege of redeem ing at original aseesSed'valne. Henee it would seem to fee a money making'op eration in case of 'redemption; Those not seeing propeB. U> redeem would of course have their lands sold, and thereby hold so much stock in the road. There seems to bo hut one difficulty* in the plan, and that is the taxation upon these lands; but surely the -Legislature could bo induced to release so much of real estate from taxation as would bui?d tho rond. Legislation is intended for the general good, and to release so jnr.eh real estate as would build suqh arpad, would benetit thc entire State, although it might interfere with some local inter *?sK Ilene; the conclusion is that thc Legislature could be induced to release from taxation said lands for a. period pl five years ; or say the State shall con tribute thus much to the building of the road. ' I havo, fellow-citizens, attempted to make this communication as short as possible. It contains no complication.' Thc ma?t?r is plain and' easy to bo seen by all men Then lei us talk l t over "arid canvass it, and when we- have done so, let us appoint meetings in Aiken, at Pine House, at Edgell eld 0.

I traveled the route from Laurens C.
