COLUMBIA, 8. C., Tuesday, Joly 20.
. IO THE EDITOR OF TUE NEWS.
Since tbe arrival of THE NEWS of Saturday
containing the expose ot the machinations of
the Blue Ridge Railroad Bing, bis Excellency
Governor Scott has been aa cross as a bear
with a sore bead. No wonder. It is not pleas?
ant to have a profitable little game held np to
publie acorn; nor is it any consolation to know
that there ia a good chance of one million of
dollars (which his Excellency expected to
make,) slipping through one's fingers. The
whole Radical ring here-was struck dumb With
astonishment when .it, was found (hat Scott in?
tended to gobble np so big a share of the party
spoils. The under strappers are mad, and
Scott will either have to go enaoks with his
followers or make another contract in which
there will be less room for. stealing.
OOYERNOB SCOTT'S BEPL?.
I do not know whether Governor Scott in?
tends to attempt any reply to the questions sc
pithily put by THE NEWS. Ton might have
saved yourself the trouble, in any case. Nc
one can disprove the main allegations of roy
previous letter; but in order to satisfy borne ol
the Quid Nunca here, I will say a few words ix
regard to the amount of the bids of tho differ
ent contractors, the responsibility of the differ?
ent, persons offering, to do. tho work, and th<
reasons why I charge Governor Scott witt
having a pecuniary interest-direct or indi
root-in the contract awarded to Cresswell (oi
Grissv?l, I don't know which) Patterson ant
Sellers.
THE BEDS.
I have before me, as I write, a detailed
statement of the price at which each part o
the work was proposed.to be done by the dil
feront contractors. This you can have if yoi
want it. At present, 1 will only give the gros
amount in round, numbers of each bid :
J. M. Chneiy & Co._$10 200 00
Dudley, Bardwell & Co. 9 250,00
^Tresswell, Sellers & Co. 10 000.00
D. Tyler & Co. 8 750 OG
LA. Hunt. . 8 260,00
t?. D. Hasell & o.tv. 7 600 00
1. D. Champ?IU & Co. 8*800.00
Engineer's estimate.:.. 7,900.00
These ar 3 not toe exaet figures, but they ar
near enough. Now, I contend that Christy';
bid was only put in to be higher than Cresswel
fe Sellers' bid. lb was offered by a Mr. Ketty
representing Christy & Co., who, after th
Eting was exposed, was Charged to hie face b
Slr. Cbamplin with being "interested" in th
Did of Cresswell & Sellers. Kelly appealed t
Colonel Low, chief engineer of the oompanj
.<o say whether Christy's- bid was not a boru
ide oae. Colonel Low made no answer. Kell
hen denied that he was "interested" in Crest
?ell and Patterson's contract. A few minute
jefore he bad told another gentleman tbat A
tad an interest <? Cresswell'e contract. S
nuch for Christy. , -
As I have already ' said, the amounts give
mow the original' bids. When Scott, told tb
sontractors that the bonds must not be toucl
?d and that money must be found to carry c
he work for nine or twelve months, those wi
lad not been in the secret (that is alibi
tresswell & Co. ) claimed tho right to modi
heir bids. AU of them putin second bid
?xcept B. H. Hasell. who joined in with Cham]
in. -The second bids ran about ten per cen
ligher than the first bids, except Caamplin1
rhioh was increase^ very little, if at ali, lea
ng it by far, the lowest offer. Mind you, t
.he contractors were now on the sime foo tin
int what did Scott do ? He deliberately pr
>osed to Cres iwell & Co. to take the contra
it about $9,000,000, and they consented to ta!
t. Here are Ute naked facts. The work, 1
mioanery and double dealing, is given out
$9,000,000, and 1 assert here, and it cannot
gainsaid, that the whole work can be done, ai
lone well, for SEVEN MILLIONS cash, or SEV:
IND A HALF MILLIONS in first mortgage guara
eed coin bonds. There is about IWOMTXXIO
)F DOLLARS pr J fit tobe made as the job s tant
iVhat will be Scott's share? As his time
mort and he has other irons in the fire, (Bt<
xrads, bank bills, land sales, &c.,) he may
tatisfied to take only A MILLION 1 Who v
low say that Scott is good for nothing ?
As Cresswell & Co. reduced their bid frc
(10,000,000. to $9.000,000, a corresponding va
ttion must be made in the charges for ir<
fcc., contained in my first letter. This woi
iring the iron down to about $120 per loi

Of the firm of D. Tyler & Co. General Tj
s the head, and it wai represented by his e
?ho was formerly Superintendent of the Ma
tod Western Railroad and lately of the PL
lelphia and Erie Railroad. General Tyler
br many years been connected witb pu
forks as a contractor. Mr. .Edgar Tnompi
President of the Pennsylvania Central I
oad, has generally been connecte l with t
irai Tyler, and would, lt is believed, have I
nterested in the Blue Bidpe contract.
J. A. Hunt, of North Carolina, is said tc
ughly responsible as a contractor. He
iresent himself, and was also representei
aajor Galick. Of this place.1 Colonel Child

lount of Mr. Hunt and the large inter
rhiOh he represents.

rejected because. Scott was not a partner in the
concern.
J. D. Ghamplin has been a railroad contrac?
tor for many years. He built fae Memphis
and Ohio Railroad, did considerable work in
Louisiana, had a heavy contract on the North
Missouri Railroad, and is now carrying out a
large contract in Mew Jersey. He brought
letters fi om prominent bankers in New. York,
and bsd a letter of introduction to Go vor nor
Scott from General Sherman. No use.' Dr.
Scott was not in the shop.
The only persons of wbom I CS- ie.:- but
little are J. M. Christy St Co., and Cress well,
Patterson & Sellers. They ave believed to be
Pennsylvania men. As I said, christy B bid
was a mere blind. .
1 think I have made it very clear that there
ware four responsible contractors who offered
to do the work at from fl OOO OOO to $1,500,000
less than tbe price at which it wee awarded to
the Pennsylvania Atm of Cresswell. Patterson
& Co. This is enough fox my purpose. It is
not necessary to rub it in.
ANOTHER REASON WHY.
One big leeson why Scott preferred Cress?
well to any other man, I forgot to mention.
Mr. Champlin proposed that the $4 OOO,QUO
guaranteed bonds ba deposited with a N itional
Trust Company in the North, so that they
could not be touched by the contriotor or the
Governor until the proper time came. Cress?
well St Co., on the contrary, said that they
were willing that the $4.000.000 should be lodg?
ed in the hands of Governor Scott and Slate
Treasurer Parker. Cresswell St Co. took th?
contract. . .
WU Y SOO TT MUST BK A PARTNER IN THE OOH
? TRACT.
I have not seen the documents, and do not
know what the figures . are, but I say, that
Scott is to have a plum but of tbe Blue Ridge
p o, for these...reasons: The .work could be
clone and was ofiezed to be done at seven and a
half millions, and was awarded at nine millions;
Cresswell A Co. were allowed to negotiate with
Scott, while the other contractors were not;
Cresswell & Co.'s bid was not accepted, but
Scott told them they could have the job at niue
millions, and they took it; no similar opportu?
nity was given the other contractors; Cresswell
& Co. were in constant communication
with Scott, and squatted in his , back: ?f?
rico the dav the bids were opened ; lob?
bying, whispering and riding about with Ct ess
well St Co. was going on all the,, time. These
are my reasons, and they satisfy me, as I be?
lieve they will satisfy the people of the S ts te.
who remember the manipulation of the State
bonds andittbe bills of tbe Bank of the State,
and who know that there : is only dfes wsy in
wbioh a man can make hundreds of thousands
Of dollars out of .thirty five hundred dollars a
year. Who would not ba the Radical Governor
of a SoutMrffState ?
\ FIAT JUSTTTIA.
I have said my any, and said it without mal?
ice. This whole government ie a plundering,
pilfering Ring, whose aim is to make money
quick, no matter how, I know it, and you
know it. My only object in writing these let?
ters is to show up one of the biggest jbns on
record-a little brother of the Pacific Railroad
job; and to ask whether even our present Le?
gislature will allow Scott to have full swing,
and pile upon the States load of debt which '
no people can bear. 1 do not believe that their
stomachs will stand it, and if this be so/
then will Cresswell,. Patterson St Co., and
their silent partner, come to unmitigated
grief. The taxpayers must remember that
every million of dollars wo spend represents
$70.000 a year in taxation. They can readily
see that $10,000.000, for the Blue Bidge Bing
means an addition of fifty per cent, to our pre- .
sent taxes. 1 his is the whole matter in a nut?
shell. .
The Phoenix to-day, pitches into Scott very
handsomely. I leave to-morrow for the moun?
tains and shall not be back for a fortnight,
when, if nee ess ary, I will again present my re-'
spoofs to his Excellency Governor Scott.

Tronbk Brewing at Washington-A
Chapter off Interesting Political Gos?
sip-Bon! well wa* 'like President.
A Washington letter of July 15th, to the bin. ;
cinnati Commercial, says :
We may or we may cot Uko it. but it is nev?
ertheless a fact, that a tempest is known to be
brewing in the administrative cirjles. I am
going to tell you wuat is said among those who
are classed as Radical Bepubhcaus, with my
inference as to tho weight that may be placed
on their testimony.
In the first place, it is considered that the
President bas altogether too much sympathy
with the result in Virginia ; that he prefers
tob openly the success bf berner io Tennessee,
of Hamilton i i Texas, and especially of Dent,
bis brother-in-law, iu Mississippi. I heard an
active Badioti say to-day, chat tbe administra ?
tion's policy was to seoure the elimination of
the negro from national politios.by adoption of
the neu din g i' ii teen th Article, and leave bun in
the native whUe banda, so far as local Slate
affairs ar? concerned. ,? ?
lt would appear that Governor Boutweil is
opposed to this. He ia the outspoken Bidical
in the Cabinet, and all who know him well un?
derstand that he is a man with definite pur?
poses, and clear abd decided intentions of car?
rying them put it that be possible; aud of not
belog used tb carry out any other line of poli?
cy. It is affirmed, mat tbe point is reichea
where the latter alternative is to be seen ap?
proaching. : !* , ?
Governor Boutweil ie undoubtedly very much
dissatisfied with the result ot the Virginia eiec
tiou. He has strained his influence to the
utmost to prevent the early ordering of an
sleet ion in Mississippi, ' which could terminate
only in a new Waiker triumph. It is not that
the Radicals object so mu oh to Walker him?
self, as they do to those i ho elect him. It is
reasonably concluded that if the mam body of
supporters are from there bel Democracy, then
the State adnunistratibn must be strained tor
their benefit. So with regard to the oandiuaoy
Ot Louis Dent as Governor of Mississippi.
He will, like Walker, bc in the matu sustained
only bv the old rebol ii fl ?unices.
It is declared by peisous g uerally well in?
formed as to the position Of ihe Secretary ot
the Treasury aud the politic.il gossip Which
circulates about bim. that within a couple ol
d<*>8 Secretary Boutwoll and Judge Dent bave
had some very wann words over the Missis?
sippi appointments--revenue and oust urns.
It is understood that Dent ''spoke as one
having authority," ant', demand?e: cet tain
changes. The Appointment Clerk, Mr. Tui
louk, into whose hands Governor Boutweil
has intrusted much ot tho responsibility of
the changes made or impending, came in
tor a vigorous denunciation. Tullook is a
Radical, and by his intimate knowledge
ot the south has been able to secure Baotoal
appointments there in moat cases, where they
bu-?? had oCAbihjg tO do with thO-MethOdi/t
Cnurch at least, lt is reported that Governor
Bout we? toidi Jtedgs' D?iit timi- he proposed to
run the Treasury, at least as long as he .was at
its head; and furthermore that he looked
auspiciously on all political mo ve ?non ta that
felt it nect?s?ry to prefix some word other
than was adopted by the party itself to the
title of :he Republican .party. * It this was said,
it was certainly a neat drive at the National
Gillon Repnb.ican party of Mississippi, wbioh
is the organise ios by whom Judge Dent has
been trotted out.
lt is also repotted thai at th? last two Cabi?
net meetings Governor Bout well has taken oc?
cisi?n to expresa himself in the strongest
terms in favor of >u*tainiog Republicanism
pure and Simple bi all tho Southern Siat?s abd
as being rcm&r&Afcly SUSPICIOUS of all mo">
menu ?bat pandered, under whatever guise, to
the rebel vms and rapport.
So much I deem tb bs truth in all the ra
mors I have outlined in the foregoing, and
that ia, that afr. Boutwoll declares that ?hat
influouce the administration can give. legiti?
mately, shall pe extended in til State elections
to the Radical Republicans; while General
Grant desires neutrality, Unless the parties as?
sume positions of active hostility to. and equal?
ly as active support of the administration. All
this may Seem speculation; and of an idle
kind, but it is the cloud no bigger than a man's
band in its rising, which threatens at last to
Overshadow the heavens. There are thoso
who predict the resignation of Governor
Boutwell before Congress reassembles.

Picture by an Intelligent Observer.
Th? San Francisco correspondent of the Cin?
cinnati Gazette writes :
What of the Chinese ? Much that is - inter?
esting and important. There are m round
numbera ons hundred thousand of them in the
Pacific States, and the new arri vaia now aver?
age from flfteea hundred to, two thousand per
month. They abound aa laborers along the
whole Cf the Central Pacific Railroad to Pro?
montory Point, and over this distanoe have
pushed off into the towns MB servants and
tradesmen, and into the mines wherever allow?
ed to come. They are spreading eastward
slowly; there ar? a feWJJ? Omaha, and John
Chinaman, with his ronnel hat and pig-tail
coiled tinder it or dangling between his heels
his long brae shirt w?&b he wears over his
blue pantaloons, ?ill shortly be no curiosity
in the Mississippi Valley. He is on his way
in foroo to make his future Eastern employ?
ers . visit.;
CHINATOWN UT SAH FRANCISCO.
Chinatown, as the quartet of tue city in
which the Celestials live is called, is certainly
one of the most interesting spots to visit ni
California. There are about a dooen ? bio cira ot
whose four sides swarm with them, and a half
dozen streets tor a distance of several squares
are Ailed with their stores and shops. Nearly
all are dressed alike, in long blue overshirts
and pants. The round straw hat is, howe er,
rapidly being abandoned for the American felt,
and the peculiar clog? and shoes for our
boote. The higher elans of merchants wear a
similar dress in style, of a dark and floe doth,
and the' rank and station is shown by the
length and thickness of the cue. The ladies
may bo glad to know that these, citizens of the
Flowsrv Kingdom brought with them the art
of wearing the most deceptive additions into
their hair, so that no matter what the crop is
the ladles can have, waterfalls'. of any given
size, and the men of standing even of any
given length. Through<all these streets, flam?
ing red and yellow handbills, covered with
columns of their peculiar characters, teil tbese
multitudes of sales and ct cap goods, of letters
and new arrivals, ot theatres, and where labor?
ers are wanted.
THE CHTNE8B HEB CHA NTS.
Every store has its Chinese sign and most
of them are English ones also. Chy Lung &
Co. are ol ? merchants ol wealth and standing,
so are HipYlkand Hip Wo. They sell silks
and ivory-goods, inlaid work, teas, Chinaware,
tibie ware, groceries, cigars, and the countless
other articles which are included in the name
"curios." Their word or bond is good as gold
among the bankers, and merchants of the city.
Hung Lung Bells you oigan. Gem Lee, Hang
Lee, Hip Ho, and other firms with Similar
names, make you cigars, mend boo:a, or do
y ur washing and ironing, their market stalls
abound in articles which Americans know
little about. 1
HOW THE CHINESE COME.
Six years sgo tbe emigration'began ip earn?
est. Before there had been only enough on
the coast to make them nore than a curiosity.
They came quietly, and engaged in such labor
as they couta obtain. Tfiegr worked for a trifle,
were temperate; in dust dons, honest and re?
spectful. They,,became^popular, and conse?
quent mqm^Jnr soon mortised the
supply. The number? which answered tbe
call created alarm awong the classes which
oaught at the opportunity or pandering tb the
lower classes, And began tb denounce tho new
comers. From1 that time John has seen
trouble enough. But bis friends are rapidly
increasing now, and he has already obtained a
foothold from which he cannot be driven. He
is here, and bis friends and neighbors are
back even if any considerable number of re?
spectable citizens should desire to. bid him
good-bye.
. TBS CHATTE a OT THE DEMAGOGUES.
, The tact u, there is hot such a widespread
prejudice against the Chin?se as Eastern pcb
pie have been led to believe existed io Califor
nia. The large majority of the respectable
people of both parties consider their presence
ableaeing. Politicians, or rather the unscru?
pulous d?magogues among pol it i siana, have
caused most of the trouble, To seoure the
support of'the most reckless and vicious por?
tions af the population, they have framed un
just laws, and winked at outrages and abuses
which are a disgrace to the State. Against all
this, John, by his skill, patience, exemplary
conduct, industry, and moderate, charges for
labor, ia slowly but steadily working his way.
JOHN PEOTEOTTNa HIMSELF.
As the State refused them protection, they
formed companies: to aid end, BO far:as possi?
ble, to protect each other. There are now .six
of thea3 in Sin Francisco* each under the di?
rection of Chinese merchants of weal* b, cul?
ture and standing. The directors of these
companies have a common place of meeting
sud their organization is complete. The ex
istence of these associations has given rise to
the story that the Chin amen who were brought
over were ieally held in a kind of slavery hy
these corporations, and that they were actual
ly bought and sold like slaves. ' There is no
truth in thia. The Companies were formed as
benevolent associations, and in no respect do
they depart from their original design. Each
company represents a certain district m China
and all who arrive have the opportunity of
joining the particular one covering the place
from which they come. Each ia free to be?
come a member OT not, as he chooses. The
fee of membership is ten dollars. For this he
receives assistance from the directors and their
agents m obtaining employm ant; he is ?aken
into th? company's lodgmR-houe?s abd board
ed tree* or at a very small expense, tul he ob
tains a place, and whenever he leaves pr loses
bis situation, or comes in from the farms or
mines, he finds a free lodging place, and a hos
pita! ip case he is sick. V ;
THE PAUPER CHINAMEN IN CAMSTOBNIA. fi
. The companies ootaiu em ploy meut for tbei
members. From thia tact they have been
charged with dealing in coolies. Tho chargo
IS wholly false. No member of the company
ls obliged io accept A place found for bim if he
does pot desl?e to do so. though be muafc trust
the companies implicitly, for the reason thai

AEDWO TO URS KATION'a WSAl/TH.
Such a people areas acquisition m a great
country needing development, even il thev re?
ceive what whites demand for similar services.
Bot when the question ot cost presents itself,
tho value of labor appears in a new and impor?
tant light. Speaking in liberal terms, Chinese
labor costs only one-third as mu ;h as--whit o
workmen demand. Now, if they reoeive only
fair treatment, is there any limit to the supply?
China is crowded to overflowing with its popu?
lation. Wo cannot stop the inroad if we would.
Looking to the great undeveloped West, which
stretches beyond tbe Rocky Mountains, the
best men iu both parties in California legar d
the promise for labor with rejoicing. Farmers
are employing them in all directions. Silk
coHnrn is opeiusg, and cotton and rico and
tea, it is confidently believed, will be hereafter
raised successfully.
The yield of gold and silver will be vastly in?
creased the moment capitalists can succeed in
scouring Chinamen admission to the mines.
With the present prloe of white labor, mmes
i which vieil less than about $20 to the ton can?
not be woiked. There are inexhaustible mines
already known which will produce from $7 to
?620 to tho ton. With Chinese labor, all rock
which produces $7 per ton ean be worked with
profit. It can be faintly seen what advanta?
ges to the whole country would flow Crom sich
a change in mining.
. AM yet it ls impossible to introduce these
people into the great mines, though they are
gradually masing headway. ,. Where a white
miner abandone bis claim if his daily receipts
fail much below 14 or IA, a Chinaman thinks be
is making a fortuu? if ne eeo-rea seventy-five
cents. '."?.'
THXTJt EDUCATION AMD PAGANISM.
Ninety-eight per ont. of those that crime
hens loan' read ?nd write their own language.
Most of them are rapid in figuring, TIK ir
children learn1 our language rapidly; the
parema with difficulty, though they soon man?
age hq acquire s Block of words and sentences
which anuwer their purposes. They show a
great anxiety to send their children to sobool
where English, ts taught, though aa yet few
facilities haye been given. them, for while tbey
nay foll school taxea,. they have as yet been
furnished but one sobool house for forty pu
pile. < As ?'class, there is none so law-abiding
not even the Americans - and none mire
honest;., Thev pay all taxes to the government
cheerfully and carefully, and the Behool tax of
the State, though they have very small returns
for tho latter. .? . ? .
The State imposes a tax of five dollars per
capita upon all, the land, and some special
licenses, snob as the miners* tax of three dol?
lars, the first of which the State has no right
to collect. There are disgraces' of this kind
which demagogues have brought upon Califor?
nia, but which the respectable classes do not
sanction, and will rectify before long.
They are idolaters. This ls tho mo it diffi?
cult point in the whole problem. Still those
who suppos? that American civilization cannot
stand against a few thousand or a few mil
lion Chinese, are borrowing much needless
trouble. ;
Contrary to the opinion of most readers, tbe
Chinaman erects no idol of Cod. He would no
sooner do this than the Christean. His faith
is this : God ia good abd kind, snd so merci?
ful that he will und?r bo circumstances do us
anything but good. But the Evil One hates
us, and ie ever watching an opportunity to in?
jure and destroy us; we must conciliate him
And so Joss or Devil houses; are erected, and
inaenoe burned constantly, and offerings made
to conciliate the Devil.
TM"p DEAD,
They believe bl the sweet influences of de?
parted spirits, that the dead are constantly
around them to watch, and guard, and help.
They make offerings of food at their graves,
not, as is said, with the idea of feeding the
dead, but to show them that they are remem?
bered. Their name for God and tor the in?
fluence Which these departed exeit is the same
as that which expresses the soft warmth and
effect of a southern sun falling upon a slope
which looks toward the son th.
They send their dead home to bury them in
the family line, so that the chain of ancestry
may be complete, and the sweet influences
from the spirit would flow through the line un?
interruptedly. If the line ls broken by an ab?
sent dead one, the ioflu.ncea are leas regular,
and make trouble in retara for the neglect of
his body. Three times a year offertnes are
mado to departed spirits, and a late Emperor
has decreed that the government make offer?
ings also three tamps a year tb spirits at large,
that is to the sports of such as have died in
battle or haye been lost at sea, and left unbu?
ried or not returned to the graves where the
family lin* ls laid.
war WEALTH m MADE FOB CUDS A.
lt ia charged that those who come hoard all
their gold, and. take it home, thus keeping
much coin ont of circulation. This has been
true. The reason is obvious.. The courts ex?
tend no protection; their testimony was worth?
less; they could not enforce contracts; sharp?
ers were continually praying upon them; and
so they were driven to trade with their own
poopie, and hoard therr gold.
But under the encouragement which the
better classes are giying them, all this is
changing. Their merchants are erecting stores
and inv< sting in real estate. The laborers are
?i rebating homes and sending for their wives,
ore and more of those who go home are re?
turning, and most of them with friends design?
ing to stay. The attention of the great Chinese
capitalista of the Empire is being turned to our
coast, and the hope among many of our best
business men in San Francisco is that tbey
will shortly be induoed to tako hold of great
enterprises. The coin of the world has been
pouring into China for generations, lu Can?
ton ana Hong Kong there are many native de?
positors pf five and six millions, and many
Chinese companies which could furnish fifty
and sixty millions to such an enterprise as tba
Pacific Railroad, or to steamship lines, if they
could once be interested in the matter. Chi?
nese merchants say these men will invest the
moment they can have full protection for their
persons and property under the laws.
