Oh Thursday last aVarrant was issued
against Mr. J. H. McDevitt, late County I
School Commissioner, on thc'charge of j
issuing fraudulent checks on the County
Treasurer, and on aheariugby the prose
cution before Trial Justice Ramey, he
was held to bail in the sum of 81000 for
his appearance at our next term of |
Court. Mr. McDevitt promptly gave
the required bond, and was forthwith re
leased.
He tells us that he had intended giving
a full and satisfactory explanation of the
rumors afloat concerning reputed fraudu
lent checks in this issue of the Advert?
ser-butas these matters now demand
legal investigation, he is precluded, in
justice to the proper defence of his wise,
from making public his exhibit ac this
time.

Correspondence.
EUGKFIKI.D. C. H.. S. C., )
January 23,18?3. j
Mayor of thc City of Augusta :
SIR : There is a custom among some
if not all, of thc Commission Merchant*
of Augusta, to make the farmer pay tax
es on all cotton consigned to them foi
sale, and sold by them.
The question is, whether it isa tax im
posed by the City authorities on all cot
ton sold in Augusta, or whether it is im
posed by the Commission Merchants, to
pay thrir tax on commissions? The for
mer is what I have been told has been
upheld by some, (not having heard from
all).
If either by the city, or by the com
mission merchant, why should there be
a difference in the taxes ? I have before
me two bills of thc sale of one bale of
cotton each, by two different Houses;
the one, on the 15th inst, gross amount
$80.30,-taxes 20 ct-s. ; the other, on the
19th inst., gross amount $80.85,-taxes
30 cts.
If it is atax by the city on all cotton, who
pays the taxes when the farmer sells his
own cotton, or when sold, as it often is,
by merchants, free of commission, HO as
to secure trade?
The farmer wishes to know ffor it has
given dip-satisfactioiij whether the city
taxes persons who trade there, for the
privilege ? If so we desire to know it.
If the Commission Merchant imposes
this tax it is a considerable bonus to him
to have other mon pay his taxes-and
eiven the average of 2"? cts. per bale
amounts to a pretty round sum, paid
cither to him, to shield him from taxes,
or to the city for tho privilege of being
allowed to.sell cu: ton'there. ..
I have retained a copy of this letter,
and may, by your consent, publish it and
your answer. Respectfully, yours, .
JOHN HtHET.
AC0UST4, *"iA., Jan. "J't, 1873.
Joiix HVIKT, Esq., Edgefield, S. C.:
Itea? Sir,-Yours of this day ii* rccejv
odv Ii? reply, would say : Our Tax Or
dinance for 1872 Imposes a tax of 1 of one
per.cent on all sales of cotton ; but none
has ever been collected from producers
selling their own cotton, or from mer
chants selling free of commissions.
Our city docs not propose to charge
any one for the privilege oi' trading with
its merchants. It costs the city from six
ty thousand to seventy thousand tlollars
per annum for its Police and Fire De
partments, to protect all property within
the city limits, from robberies and lires;
and it has been deemed but just that the
property protected should bear its share
of the expense, regardless-of what par
ticular class it might belong.
But owing tolhe'probable, and I might
say the certainty of tho passage by our
Legislature, now in session, of a law pro
hibiting any tax on Sales of agricultural
products, our City Council will, before
the first day of April, adopt a new sched
ule of taxation, and leave sales of mer
chandize and agricultural products out.
Kii?lotcd I hand you u list that embra
ces. With fli? exception of Licenses, all
tho items from which We expect to col- j
led taxes tills year.
Very Respectfully,
Your Obedient Serv't.,
CHAS. EST KS, Mayor.
For the Advertiser.
MK. EDITOR :-I notice iu the publish
ed account of the proceedings in the
HouBe of the Georgi? Legislature, of (he
29th Jam last, that the bills introduced
into that body, and the substitute by tho
Committee on Agriculture, all prohibit
ing municipal corporations from taxing
cotton, and other agricultural produots,
-being the special order-were taken up
and discussed.
v Mr; Jones, of Burke, said the third
section of tho substitute waa not to pro
hibit cities i rom imposing a tax ou thu
gross incomes of merchants, but to pre
vent merchant* from ..icluding such tax
on their bills of costs in settling with the
producers. ,
Mr. Calhoun maintained that no city
in the Stater levied laxes on the sales of
agricultural products. If it was the cus
tom of mcrohunts to include such taxes
in their bill of costs, it was wholly un
authorized.
The substitute of the Committee on
Agriculture was then passed by yeas 109,
to nays 28.
Section the 1st of that Bill reads : "That '
from and after the passage of this Act,
municipal corpp rations of this State shall
not levy or assess a tax on cotton or tho
sales thereof."
Section 3 provides, under penalty, that
no Commission Merchant, factor or other
salesman in this State, shall, in his bill
of expenses for the sale of or handling
cotton, or other produce as aforesaid,
include or collect, directly or indirectly,
any tax or assessment, levied or attempt
ed to be levied, <fec. - Yours,
JOHN HUIET.
For the Advertiser.
To thc Editor of the Edoeflcld Adver
tiser :-My Attention has boen'directed
to a card in tho Columbia Daily Union,
of Feb. 7th, over the signatures of " the
colored Senator, and a colored Represen
tative,"-animadverting somewhat rudely
upon an article which app?arod in your
last issue, over the signature of " A Mem
ber of the Bar." Whilst self-respect,
and a consciousness of the difieren ce be
tween " the colored Senator and Repre
sentative" and myself, would dictate a
different reply to their card, than one
through your paper, yetas lam disposed
to do them justice if they are innocent, I
will for the present waive the difference
of position, and give them a fair trial at
their own home, and before their own
constituents. As I propose therefore to
be just to these people I yet assure thom,
that I will be merciless if they are guilty
The constant annoyances experienced
by the Bench, Bar, and People of Edge
field County, by the failure of Juries,
occasioned as well by the imperfection
of the Jury law, as by the culpable neg
ligence of some of those whom the law
makes indispensable for tho legal listing
and drawing of the same, roquired some
comment from the members of the Bar,
who are most deeply interested in the ef
ficient working ol the machiner" of jus
tice.
The Jury law requires Juries to be
listed in the month of January of each
year. On the last day of January, the
Chairman of tho Board of County Com
missioners, with the Jury Commission
er,," appeared at the Court House, for the
purpose of discharging their duty ; but
tire County Auditor, a necessary member
of the Board, ' 'was -absent at Columbia.
The two members of'the Jury Board
opened the boxes, where the necessary
papers for listing the Jury should have
been found, but none were obtained apd
so ended the "fiasco" of Jury listing for
1873. ' 1 . .'
A member of the bar exposed, through
your paper, the misconduct of the Coun
ty Auditor, and charged "the colored
Senator, and the colored Representative"
of Edgeliold with co operation with a
i colored official at Columbia "in foisting
upon the people men who are noted for
a disregard of their official duties." The
statement ofsuchmisconduct on the part
of these colored officials was uiade upon
the testimony of nome of tho leaders of
tho Republican party in this County, to
whom " the colored Senator, and colored
' Representative" will doubtless be re
quired to answer.
. In reply to so much of the card of " the
colorea Senator, and colored Representa
tive," as refers to the motives of " A
Member or thc Bar," in writing articles
in any paper, I pronounce it a lie in
everv word.
As to so much thereof, as seeks to
whitewash the two colored legislators,
and exhibit them as Reformera, I will
only reply, that they staud charged on
the testimony of prominent leaders of
their own party, with persistent and an
noying applications to tho Governor, to
remove thc late County Treasurer from
office, without any intimation of officiai
negligence, or misconduct ; and for the
appointment of the present incumbent,
when they well knew that charges of
forgery had been preferred against him.
That a lar^c number of school checks,
alleged to have been forged by tho late
School Commissioner, now County Treas- .
urer, were the property of both, or one
of these colored legislators, and were
cashed by tho late County Treasurer, on
the demand of " the colored Representa
live," based upon a writtten order or re
quest of a State odieial at Columbia.
That both the " colored Senator and u
colored Representative," knew at, and
before the appointment of their minion
and tool, the present County Treasurer,
and bofore the cashing of their checks
that thc same were forged ; yet, that they
presented and obtained payment of them
in a large sum of money, to the injury
and loss of a large number ol' cheek
holders, who held buna fide demands for
valuable consideration on the County
Treasury.
These are some ol' the specifications ol'
the ehurge made by "A Member of the
Bar," against " thc colored Senator, and
a colored Representative," 'which, if Uley
disprove tb the satisfaction of their con
stituentH, will obtain for them morcm*/
it and teapeci, with honest men, than tl.e
ebullition of s"ufch bastard Virtuous in
dignaron, aa their card in tho'Daily-Uni
on exhibits. These young colored men
ui?st fecoUeet in the incipiency ol their
Politieal Career, that it is not by imjnt
dWce and audacity that they can either
command or deserve the esteem and ap
proval of mankind.
