Only as late as the 9th of the present m-inth four of these revenue oifticials went to the hotus of a widw 'Iad v li iing in a mountainons section of the district I have the honor to repreFent, and brutally murdered her son, a young man of twenty years of aige. I take the fillowing extract from the newspaper publiished at the County seat d' the County in which this was committed: It appears that the young man was standir.g or rather leaning, against the door facing when the revenue officers rode up, or walked up,(we believe they were walkiig,) and de li berately shot hi in dead on the spot, without a noment's warning or an intimation of their designs. The young man fell out of thedoor life less, wien tie officials said to his brother, '"Who hive we shot?" The reply was, "You have shot my brother." The oflicers then turned and left the' house. but citicealed themselves on a siuall hill near the house in the brush, aid remained there for some time, for what pilr pose is notjknowin. lhiey then went to the store of Mr. King, somne tour miles off, where they endeavored to hire a conveyance to Easley Station. Mr. King told them tihat lie could not carry them that evening, but it th(y would wait wintil morniig he would carry t hem. This they could not d1-, as they had business of in portanlce to attend to and uni1ust go that ni;.,ht. They ;hAn lired one m-1,4e fr him, and Kano rode ra pIid ly tor t lie St at ion, passintg t hrough this place by a back waiy ahout dusk, aMid arriving at Easlev j m-t ill time to take the nine o'clock traiii going North. lie gave a negro ten cent1S 10 carry the m111ole to the livery sta ble, with instructions to send it back to Mr. Bayliss [1endricks, at this pliace, where the oflicials had told Mr. King they dasi red th maleni tu ride to. It appears that t wo shots were fired at L-idd, thme first taking effeet and killing him i, while thme second missed. From this fauct, and heac that Katie rode off' Mr. King's mule and left innmediately on thle train, it is supposed lhe did the killing. The othier three went across the countr3 toward Greenville on toot, anid at th is writing' we know not where they arme. It will ho seen that the man whc most probably did the shiooting took the first, train "going North," and nec doubt to day is here, assuring the do partment of the imnpossibility of en forcing compliance with the revenue laws in th.it disloyal section. is confederates attempted also to leave the country, but later information ad vises me that seeing a Ku Klux ir theo trunk of every tree, they wvoni only to the adjoining county and do livered themselves up to the sheriff If' they aro innocent oficials, the sur mise may at least be excited that they would have surrendered in the county in which they were attempt ing to execute the law. Now that this IlIouse has stricken from the revenue bill the amendment of the gentleman from North Caroli, na, [Mr. Vance,) the cause which I have just recited may present an op, portunity for a conflict of' authorit~y between the Stato and Federal Court Judges. That -the United States Judge will presume to attempt to transfer this case to his court for tial I have no idea. That lhe would have done so two years ago, thoire can be ino question. But, thanks to the in vincible will of a bravo and honest people, the State of South Carolina has been reconstructed upon a firm Idemocratic basis, and no longer will a sordid and corrupt Federal Judge be allowed to exerciso arbitr'ary or despotic power, as lhe has frequently donelff in the past. pure and noble men in thatState, and the vilest criminal need not fear but that he will got every consideration that the law allows. To say that these revenue officials will have justice done them would simply be insuring their speedy execution, in my opinion; and if resistnceo to their arbitrary exact ion in the performance ot their ufficial duties 4e dialoyalty, then, Mr. Speak, er, my constituency are of all men most disloyal. [From the Charleston News Iand Courier.] There is a Remedy. Two weeks ago, in an article headed, "Is there no remedy?" cal ling attention to the outrages commit ted upon the people of the up-conn. try by ruffians in the guise of reve nue officers-crimes that for ten years past have called forth, again and again, the denunciatiL.ns of the press, but which have again and again been committed with impunity -we said: "The Attorney-General should be authorized, at the expenso of the S'..te, to prosecute all offenders un der color of the United States an thority against the rights and liber ties of the people, to the full extent of the law. If the same splendid talents and weight of legal lore that were brought to the defence of the Ellenton prisoners were used in the prosecution of these revenue ruffians, they would not iuch longer go un whipped of justice." The recent atrocious murder of a young man on the threshold of his home by a gang of these bullies, in Pickens County, has again called our attention to this matter, and, on ex anination, we find that the Attorney General is authorized to do just ex, acily what is above recommended. Section 27 of Chapter XVI of the Revised Statutes, speaking of the duties and powers of the Attorney. General, says: "lie shall consult with and advise the Solicitor in matters relating to the duties of their offices; and when, in his jndgment, the interest of tbe State requires it, shall assist them by attending the Grand Jury in the ex amfinati.)n of any case in which the party accused is charged with a cap it al offence; and whein, in his judg ment, thle initerest of the State re quires it, he shall be present at the trial of any caus~e in which the State is a party or interested, and, when so pr esent, shall have the direction and mnanagemnent of'such pirosecutions and suiits." In every criminal prosecution the State is a party and is interested, and, therefore, it is within the diecreotion of the Attorney General to take charge of such caees, or not, as in his view the interests of the State may require. Ini caplital cases he may go b)efore the Grand Jury for the pu r pose0 of obtaining a trt'e bill against he parties accused, and thus have the case under his control from itB inception to its close. The A ttorney-General is, of courze, rhe best judge of' his duty in the premises, and the Jearned and able lawyer who now fills the office comn imands the respcct and confidence of the whole State. But we venture to say this mtich ThiQ leolle in the monnti ainm retgionis of' I his State had heefti so hiarraased and lpersecumted by the man'y dlebased and rnflianly men in thie employ of' the United States revenue service, that they were in a constant state of alarm and excite nmnt. T1his last crowning outrage has changed that condition to one of inmdignation and fury. which will lead to serious t,'ouble munlie future unless the p~eople can see that there is pro% rection and safety to be had by iaw-4 tul means.
