ed with no amendments: ?Militia gets
$20,000 ; Penitentiary reduced to $40,000 ;

porate the Mutual Aid Association.

tigate the sale of the Spartanburg and

year is completed.
In the Senate the death knell of the
South Carolina University was sounded,
by t-lje final passage of the Bill to estab
lish a State Normal School. This Bill,
which is the offspring of Whittemore,
gives the Board cf Regents created un
der lt, the right to take entire possession
of the University buildings, without any
consultation whatever. The General As
sembly have long endeavored to break
up this institution, the appropriations
are? always grudgingly bestowed, and
but until uow it has been kept up only
by the indomitable energy of the public
spirited gentlemen who have been at its

vote, standing 22 to 6.

shall be punished by imprisonment in
tlie county jail, not less than one month
or more than six months, or by fine no;
Jess than fifty dollars, more than one

Tho concurrent resolution to con li rm
the contract with the present State prin
ters as the contract of tho General As
sembly, was rejected on its third load
ing.
In the House, Mr. Cannon, of Spar
tanbnrg, introduced a Bill to explain or
amend an Act to authorize aliens to hold
property. The intent of tho Bill is fully
expressed in tbs text, which is as foj
jnw-~ : .
Whereas doubts have been suggested
-whether the Act to authorize aliens to
hold property was intended to include
corporation* created under the Jaws, or
by the authority nf other States and na
tion^ : therefore be ii enacted, <to , That
Qorporattoiis eraated under the laws, or
by the authority of other States and na
rions, wore intended to have, and shall
have and exercise, all rights granted to
aliens umler the Act aforesaid, as .fully
as if they had been specially therein
named.
Representative Hurley introduced a
joint resolution to allow snits to be brought
to ascertain the merits of the claims of ]
Wm. Aiken. Robert Adger, W. C. Bee
and others, to be refunded the alleged
overpayment of thc direct tax, collected
by the United Suites. Thc resolution is
aa follows:
Bc it Itemized, <fr, That the Memorial
and Petition of Wui. Aiken, Robt.
Adger, and others, who paid tho Direct
Tax?s referred to in their memorial, and
levied and apportioned by the Congress
of the Uuitetf States, be referred to the
Attorney General for bis gpinion of the
legally and ?quitable merits of the
claims.
That the memorialists for themselves
and in behalf of these they now or here
after may represent, have leave to bring
one or more suits, (not to exceed in num
ber,) whenever the State shall be d?
fendant, and the Attorney General shall
appear, plead to and defend said suits in
behalf of all persons, who have paid no
part of said tax.
That the purposes of said suits, shall
be to ascertain and settle
First Whether upon established le
gal and equitable principles, those who
paid more than their proper share of .tax,
chargeable upon all alike, are not enti
tled to contributions from those, who
paid nothing or less than thoir proper
share. *
Second. Whether, upon tho application
of the said principles, it is not the duty
of the 8tato to cause to be refunded Raid
taxes in such manner as that the burden
of them'/ill Be fairly distributed like
other taxation, TEbat either party have
the right lo appeal to ?he Supreme Court
of the State, and that no costs shall be
chargeable against the State in such suit?.
Repr?sentative Cochran iritrbduced' *
Bill to Tcpealso much of an Act to pro- i j
vide for the appointment of an Inspoc- j i
tor of Phosphates as relates to the in
?
jpection of phosphates manufactured by
Individuals or companies.
The Bill is somewhat muddy* in its
character and is evidently intended to
annul the duties .( the Inspector entire
ly, because all phosphates are manufac
tured either by individuals or compa
nies, and it is therefore apparent that the
intent of the Bill is to deprive the inspec
tor of the duty of inspecting, analyzing
and marking phosphates.
Senator Corwine introduced a Bill to
incorporate C e Newberry Cotton Mills.
The incorporators are W. A. Cline, "W.
?. Mayes, F. S. Coppock A. J. Langshire.

ver of others. The capital Stock is fixed
at $300,000. The Company are authoriz
ed to manufacture, dye, print, and finish
all goods of which cotton, wool or other
fibrous articles may form a-part,"ns welt
as all machinery used for such purposes,
and for the transaction of such business
as may be connected therewith. Exemp
tion is granted from State and County
taxes for ten years.
The Bills to. renew and amend the char
ter of the toll-bridge across the Savannah
River at Hamburg, and to charter the
Anderson, Aiken, Port Royal and Char
leston Railroad Company, and to author
, ize the construction of the New York,
Norfolk an$ Charleston Railroad, were
read a second time, and ordered to be
engrossed for a third reading.
On Friday, the 7th, in the House, the
enacting clause was stricken out of flie
Bill to amend An Act to establish a new
Judicial County for Barnwell, Edgefield,
Lexington and Orangebnrg.
The Bill to amend the Act entitled An
Act to renew and amend the Charter of
the Town of Anderson as passed, with
an amendment adopting the cumulative
system of voting at municipal elections
in the town of Anderson.
Mr. P. Simkin* introduced a resolution
forbidding the introduction of any more
bills during the session, which was
passed, ' .
On Saturday both Houses made con
siderable progress in advancing (Bills
and clearing their Calendars. But noth.
ing tianspired in either House worthy of
especial mention.
[BY REQUEST.]
A Card.
COLUMBIA, February 6,1873.
To the Editor of the Daily Union :
You would 'confer a favor on " The |
Colored Senator and a Colored Represen
tative" from Edgefield, by allowing them,
through your columns, to reply to an ar
ticle which appeared in the Edgefield Ad-'
vertistr, of the Gth instant, "?he article
above referred to charges directly, that
while the county auditor, J. H. McDcvitt,
willfully disregard his duties as auditor,
the colored Senator and a colored Repre
sentative from Edgefield village are assist
ing in foisting upon the people a man who
openly violates his oath of office. Now,
Mr. Editor, this is the first time that we
have heard such a statement, and we do
emphatically deny the truthfulness of the
allegation, and do say that the party or
partie? who state that we would willfully
and knowingly foist qpon the people any
man whom we do not believe to be an
honest and efficient officer, state what they
know to be a base fabrication.
Wa, have done all we possibly could do,
up to tflis time, to bring about"a reforma
tion of things in Edgefield county, and we
intend to pursue that course as long as
we remain in office, without fear, favor
or affection. We have endeavored to work
in the interest of all the citizens of Edge
fielcL. unlike, as it in stated, " a member of
the Bar," who wrote an artiole some time
ago, in the interest of the late treasurer who
promised if he would do so, Be would pay j
his (the member of Bar) checks. . We are i
! not 'actuated by any such impure and
corrupt motives. We are the servants ol
the people and are endeavoring to subserve
their interests, and not that of personal
aggrandizement or avaritiou8,-acquisition8.
XVe were not elected by the people to
be frightened by any such invidious arti
cles, that can emanate from " a member
of the Bar," or any loafer that may urge
him to write such articles. Wc know
sir, something about the disappointments
the member has met with. We know he
iias not succeeded in getting all of his
checks cashed, and we know, furthermore,
that he fears now, that some one else may
get some of theirs cashed before he can
;,ret all of his. We know, too, Mr. Edi
tor, that wc owe " a member of the Bar,"
nothing for being a "colored" Senatorand
a "colored" Representative; for if tho
matter had been a? he would like it, we
would be his colored slaves, instead of his
eolored Senator ?ind colored Representa
tive. Thank God, he cannot get his rath
ers !
So far as th*- auditor of Edgefield is
concerned, we have only to say that lie is
of age, and is, doubtless, able and ready to
vindicate himself. Nothing satisfies us
more of his fitness, ability and integrity
thar, an article winch appeared in the same
paper, through which a "member of thc
Bar" now .-eeks to assail him soon afb-r
lie was appointed auditor, which article
fully endorse'! .Mr. McDeyitt But, Mr.
Ediior. we close, not being desirous of
wearying the patience of your readers.
We know, sir, that all of this writing and
talking are not ?nly to intimidate the col
ored Senator and a colored Representa
tive, but to try to .change the minti of
the Executive of the State, who likewise
owes nothing to "a member of the Bar''
for hi? election.

Thc Troops to be Withdrawn from the
South, ami the. Ku-Klux to be
Pardoned.
WASHINGTON, February 0.
Some important movements of troops
will soon be ordered by the war depart
ment, the ?fleetof which will be to take
from the States fd* Kentucky, North and
South Carolina, Alabamaand Tennessee,
the greater portion of the United States
military forces stationed in these States,
and to locate them at other pointu where
the interest-; of the government m av re
quire their presence It is believed that
nearly all the Ku-Klux prisoners will he
pardoned within a very short timo, and
particularly those of tho more ignorant
class. Tho government will, however,
prosecute all new i us tan ces of Ku Klux
persecutions, and, should additional cases
arise, the executive department of jus
tice will disregard all appeals Cor mercy.
Tho President has pard?ned Ell Ross
Stewart and Robert Hayes Mitchell, of
York county, who wore convicted of Ku
Kluxing an? sentenced to tho Albany
penitentiary.
Smoke House Burned.
The Chronicle dc Sentinel, of the 5th,
says: "Mr. W. T. Ti m merin an writes
ns from Hepziliah, Richmond county,
that on the night of the 1st instant, about
12 o'clock, his smoke boase was fired by
an incendiary, as yet unknown. The
house, with about six months' supply of
bacon, one hundred bushels of cotton
seed, together with many other articles,
was completely destroyed. The loss is
very considerable, without a dollar of
Insurance. We sympathize with Mr.
Timmerman in his loss, and trust that
the guilty party may yet be traced and
brought to a just punishment.

THE ADVERTISER.
Edgefield,$. C., Feb. 1?, 1873.
Whitemore Works Us The Crown!ne;
'?< y; ?BA .'?
Tlie new Constitution of South Caro
lina requires that a State Normal School
shall bo es ta bli.shed. And the Governor,
in his late message, very properly re
commended that, for reasons of economy,
the said School should be engrafted upon
the Claflin University at Orangeburg.
The Claflin University is a school 'for
negro men, subsidized, ii not entirely
supported, by the State It is named,
we suppose, in honor of a Massachusetts
man, famous for his zeal in the promo
tion of Free and Normal Schools
' But this recommendation di d'" not ?ult'
the Radical magnates of our degraded
Stat?. A Normal School ?t Orangeburg;
would be too modest for them.. Conse
quently, their Legislature (for'whose is
it but theirs ?) has passed a Bill-the off
spring of one Whittemoro, a Methodist
preacher, once- kicked out of Congress
for dishonesty, and-now State Senator
from 'Darlington County-giving the
Board of Regents created' under it, the
right to take entire possession of the
State University buildings, without any
I consultation whatever, Of course they
favill affect to choose only ctrtain of the
buildings, knowing full well that no de^
cent gentleman" of South Carolina would
for one moment harbor the thought .of
attending an institution defiled by such
propinquity. The University of South
Carolina is dead ; and, as the South Caro
linian observes, the white people of the
State who pay three-fourths of tho taxes,
have no place left them to educate their
children.

Augusta Wooing Foreign Capital.
A few weeks back, in an "article ex
horting our Legislators to uphold all
schemes for encouraging Manufactories in
our State, we affirmed that Augusta al
ready offered a premium of 3 per cent
upon moneys invested along her Canal.
It seems wo were somewhat' too fast,
however, as the ordinance to this effect
only passed some ten days ago. This or
dinance is a wise'thing, in'our opinion,
although it was strongly opposed by
Mayor Estes. It provides, for the pay
ment of a commission of three per cent.,
by the city of Aucusta, to any person se
curing tho investment of the bona fide
sum of $600,000 in the erection of any
manfacturihg mill on the Augusta Ca
nal, and applies to capital of investment
commenced within the next two yearsf
and no longer.
? I Told Him to Go to Hell."
It seems that Senator John Patterson
of South Carolina has published a pam
phlet-said to be bound in red-which
pamphlet is entitled " A Refutation ;"
that is, a refutation of the charges of
bribery and corruption against him. In
this " Refutation" occurs the following
affidavit from " Honest. John :" " At
the caqcus in my rooms, on the Monday
night preceding the election, Miller call
ed me to the window, in tho presence of
several gentlemen, and asked for money.
I told him as nearly aa I can recollect,
to go to hell." It will be remembered
that Miller was tho first man whodopos
ed against Mr. Patterson, Now it may
seem quite immoral in us to applaud the
use of such sulphurous language, but
we cannot help exhorting all people who
are approached by the Rings" now-a
days, and ?ll ?* Rings" thatare approach
ed by Miller? and Yorks, to follow the
examplo of Mr. Patterson, That gentle
man,.it is true, probably called Mr. Mil
11er back, when several gentleman were
I not present, and gave him money. But
as a quibble about the drawing ul Juries
allows Mr. Patterson to gu without trial
for a year to come, we will give him the
benefit of the doubt. Mind 1 he said to
the templer, yo io hell!
Shall we not Chink Gold and Silver
in Their Kars (
The Cotton Tux Bill of which we spoke
some weeks back, has failed In Congress ;
but Mr. Beck, Representative from Ken
tucky, has been allowed to propose still
another scheme, looking to the same end.
This last scheme had an informal hear
ing by the Committee of Ways and
Means on Monday the 27th ultimo
Messrs. Beck, Kerr and Maynard favor
the bill. Mr. Dawes is not opposed to
it on principle, bat thinks this is not the
time to press sucj) a measure, while
Messrs E. 11^ Roberts, Kellej*, Finkle
bv.rg and Burchard oppose it in toto.
The measure is as good as killed for
this Congress, but nevertheless we think
it will eventually pass. And why? Be
cause there is from sixty to seventy live
millions of dollars involved in it. And
out of this sum, the claimants, or those
who manage for them, can spare quite
enough to convert those gentlemen who
are opposed to the measure "on princi
ple." Thc refunding of this cotton ux
would be no more than the simplest jus
tice But the voice ol'justice in the U.
S. Congress, now-a-days, ls a puny and
wailing sound. Tho harmonious chink
of gold and silver, however, is irresisti
ble and all-powerful. Who that reads
the dirty and disgusting revelations of
the' Credit Mobilier investigation, can
condemn us for making this assertion?
Perhaps Mr Dawes, himself a hero of
tho Credit Mobilier, knew a thing or two
when ho said this was not the time to
press such a measure. A half loaf ls
better than no bread at ull ; and these
worshipful gentlemen will not give us
our dues for thc sake of justice, let us
woo them gently with tho Invitation.
" Como, go halves' with.tm." This will
to ?perfectly justifiable in ns; andas to
their morals, tho devil take them !

For the Advertiser.
MR. EDITOR: I would most respect
fully ask leave, through your columns,
to vindicate myself.against the unjust
charges presented against me as County |
Auditor.
I refer to the matter of drawing, or
rather, listing the Jury. I feel satisfied
that the Advertiser, and the good people
of Edgefiehl, will not so readily decide
upon an ex parte hearing, notwithstand
ing the cynical efforts of " A Member of |
the Bar."
I do most unequivocally absolve my
self from any blame whatever that may
attach to the Board of Jury Commission
ers for failure to list the Jury for the
present year.
It appears that my short absence must
have been a very fortunate occurrence,
inasmuch as the vacancy created thereby
proved to be a convenient place to rest
the entire blame,
I deem it hardly necessary to refer you
to "An Act to regulate the manner of |
drawing Jurors," passed at the regular
session of 1870-71, whereby a Board of j
Jury Commissioners was oreoted, and
authority given the Governor to appoint
a Jury Commissioner for each County.
Section 5, of this Act, provides that thc
Board of Jury Commissioners of each
County shall, once in every year, during
the month of January, prepare a list of ?
such inhabitants of their respective Coun
ties, qualified tb serve an Jurors."
Now, ft certainly should bv the duty
of some ono to give the members of the
Board due and timely notice of the day
intended, or set apart for the listing and
drawing of Jurors. I received no such
notice. And it was notuntiltlj?30th.day
of January, when on my way to Colum
bia, that I received thc first intimation
whatever of the listing of thc Jury.
I was satisfied that thcro could bo no
listing of the Jury on that day, from the
fact that the Board of Commissioners
had not in their possession tho Poll Lists
from tho last general election. It is cor
tainly not thc duty of rh? County Audit
or to furnish Poll Lists, nor is it the duty
of the Chairman of tho Board of County
Commissioners. Then whose duty is it
to notify the Board of the time of meet
ing, and to furnish Poll Lists? Thc Ju
ry Commissioner, I submit, is Chairman
of the Board of Jury Commissioners
officio: and il seems more properly to be
his duty.
So then, Mr. Editor, it was the absence
of tho Poll lists thai occasioned Hie delay
or veg! oct in listing thc Jurors; not thc
absence of the County Auditor. I do not
desire or intend to shirk any of my
?ponai bili ties, and place them upon the
shoulders of others; but what I do de
mand is, simple justice.
Again, as Chairman of the Commis
sioners of Election, I was not required
to furnish any ono with the Poll lists,
except the Secretary ol' State. 1 com
plied with tho requirements of the law
by depositing the Poll lists with the Sec
retary of State,- where thoy now remain
EIS records of that office.
I hope that the learned "Member of
the Bar" willalways bc as ready to wield
bis pen in thc behalf; of jundee as he was
to attack me upon thc bnro statement,
probably, of parties prejudiced to truth;
especially upon the statement of parties
whose official conduct would stand no
closer scrutiny than my own, a.id who
would "logroll" with thc devil forsake
ii a little filthy lucre.
I hope that this explanation may prove
satisfactory to the public, so far as I am
concerned, and that the blame bo attach
ed where it properly belongs.
Respectfully,
JOHN II. MCDEVITT.
