V. C. Bowen Arraigned as a Thiel
Forcer *nd Murderer.
HIS MATRIMONIAL PECCADILLOES, dc.
TO 1HB PUBLIC.
In his recent defence ot himself 'rom th
the charge of " political treachery, " 0. C
Bowen waa pleased to make me the ?abject o
pei soo al reflections and insinuations, designe*
to injure my reputation abroad, although the;
will doubtless have the effect, as emanatin)
from him, to commend mo to all honora Wi
men who know bis personal history. I prc
pose to reply briefly to those reflections, ant
?bow from the record that C. C. Bowen is no
a credible witness upon a question of fa?t. '.
regret that I am obliged to make .his repl;
dunne his absence from the city; bat thi
rices, like the virtues, flourish together, ant
0. C. Bo we n has added cowardice to slander bj
flying from Charleston as soon he had placet
toe manusoript of his ssarriJlons article in th?
nanda of the printer.
Beferriog to Dr. Mickey's rem?rala and ap
povntments in the Customhouse, Bowen states
io hu communication, "He (Of. M.) cam?
home and recommended the removal of ex
Coufederate Surgeon Dupont, and tue appoint
mont of ex-Confederate Captain T. J. Mackey
the maa who was oooe indicted for riolatins
the neutrality laws m the days of gray-eyet
Walker,of-Nicaraguan fame; subsequently it
said to have made unusually profitable use of i
petilion for pardoo ot a nuil robber; was wet
known in Texas, (a State m which there a?
doubtless worse men than ho;) was afterward*
some kind ot a ranger in the Confederad
army, tben something else in Texas, then t
clerk in the Freedman's Bureau iu Washing'
ten; for a brief period titular private secretary
to Governor Scott, and chief, fugleman and de?
stroyer of his brother's ohanees for senatorial
honors, from which labor, i ons bot aa profit & ble
station he was promot d to foreign entry
olerk tn tho Charleston Customhouse,"
i Ic will be sean that Hr. Bowen ohaiges that
lim tn "ex-Confederate captain," a charg^
which, made iii connection With his allegation
that persons "disqualified" by law wart re?
tained in the Customhouse by Hx^, Mackey,
<ooott hawabren meant, onry to convey the im?
pression that I am embraced in thia class,
Tal Bowen -knoWa that my name ls included u
the-very act ot Congress by which he bimsell
I was relieved of bia political disabilities, passed
Juno 26 1868. 1 admit that I am an ex-Con
; federate. I was a captain of engineers in the
Confed?rete army, which I entered as a cittern
of South Carolina, in obedience to the aooepted
political oo de of my people. In that capacity
' I served act i vely for near four years as the
chief engineer of important military districts;
?erred m maoy battles on the Btaff of General
8teriing Price-* boro worthy to have worn
[ tho white plume of Navarre; and I followed the
\ varying tartanes of that noble obief to tttatt
ead but honorable ole e. I than surrendered
. my sword, he preferring to die in exile rather
: than stoop his lofty cree t to the conqueror,
evan th on eh thar conqueror represented, as
he did, the flag of his country that gave pro
teotion alike to the no SOT and the vanquished,
j In the coarse of that eemee, I performed no
act unworthy of a good soldier, or a min of
honor.
Bot bow stand? it with C. C. Bowen, woos*
name, by a oiric Action, now beare the prefix
"Honorable ?"
He ? a New England man, born and reared
in Bbode leland, near tba very altar of liberty.
!He entered tho Confederate army as a lieuten?
ant t f cavalry, and after an ignominious career
of two y oars, he waa cashiered (as loan'show
by the offl liai record be for 3 me) for the crime
of forgery !
, lt is also true that I was indicted with Gene"
ral Waiker on the charge of violating the nen'
trait ty laws of the United States, but I bare
yet ta learn that this fact could detract from
my standing aar a gentleman. . Immediately
after my trial and acquittal on that charge,
1 wa* appointed "by the an thon ties at Wash?
ington' as Examiner of Uni ted JJ tates surreys
foi Kanaan and Nebraska.
I I was not a clerk, but the Exaniiner of Ac
OMnts, lu th? Freedmen'a Bc reau. and i? that
capacity I became acquainted with the evi
dsnco-ou which C C. Bowen was arrested asd
committed to prison by General Bicales, on
the charge of BTKAxnra atorar from the freed?
men. It is true that I was private secretary
to Governor Scott, the ?ame gallant soldier
and worthy gentleman whose duty it became,
as asaisiant commissioner of the Freedmen's
Bureau for South Carolina, to have Bowen ar?
rested (for BI KAT.TKO ) and to make him.
through the military authorities, disgorge a
large air aunt of his i'd-gotten gains.
It is true that I am "well known in Texas.**
In the summer of 188*. aa acting United States
provost marshal over twenty counties of that
ttate. I arrested many criminals, some of
whom were executed for tho crime of murder,
after a fair and impartial trial, on far l?sa evi?
dence tuan that adduced.to. prove that C. C.
Bowen murdered Colonel White, by the bands
of a hired assassin, i i his bed-nwm at George?
town, S. 0.. io November 1884. xor wbioh bloody
deed he escaped punishment, through the
flight of his accomplice, after a full confession.
He was confined in prison haro ou that charge,
and wat released at tho general jail deliren
nudo br the U ai ted States forces on their en?
try into i.'burleston, m 1865.
Thia dark bat truthful story of Bowen's
erimia, ? not inconsistent with his ante-war
record.
Be c .mo to this c'ty io 1859 as the h6ad of
a band of the lowest class of gamblers, and
soon signalised his adven by Btcalintr a valua?
ble set of faro checks from an establishment
io this city, which chocks he sold in New York,
wnere they were recovered by their owner, to?
gether with the written proof of .'.owen's guilt.
This fact I can prove by a * 'coud of witnes?
ses." The muoioipal t>urhoritiea of this City
hare been frequently appealed to during tho
pa?t month by his wife at Louisville, whom he
has abandoned, although a worthy woman, to
aid her in securing a support from him, while
he is linn g in open infamy with another rn
thu city.
Bowen charges that I "preside over so-call?
ed Union Leagues, where, tor a fee of fltty dol?
lars, he puts through resolutions to slander
good Bepnblteans.9
? It is true that I am president of the Union
League of Charleston, the same Leagne that
subscribed money, earned by the bard hands
of the laboring men who obiefi' oimpos-d it,
to leed Bo wt n's putative children in this cit v
tn 1867, while be was imprisoned in Castle
Pi nek u ey on (he Charge of ste icing-a charge
which the members of the League were led to
behave un .ruo from hm. V ians tb! e representa?
tions and earnest protestions of ?nnocmoe.
The resolutions to which Bowen re ere were
puB-ed to denounce the proposed appointment
of his friend, G. W. Cl rk. as collector of this
pori sud to stigmatize the political treachery
of Senator F. A. sawyer and C. C. Bowen.
'Surely it did not require -'a fee of fifty dollars"
to induce me' to support such resolutions.
It is worthy of note, that United States Sen?
ator Sawyer, who is now Bowen's.besom friend
and co conspirator, was charged by Bowen, on
I oath, ia Joly, 1868. with having committed the
crime of perjury in taking the iron-clad oath
a chaT*6 whic^ u *rae?
I hare tn^a briefly glanced at the criminal
history of this ''Honorable Representative
from 8ont?? Carolina." lt b to be hoped that
justice will y?t overtake him,
"And put lit every honest hand a whip
To lash the rascal naked through the w*rld."

to consider thc advisability ol the bank re?
suming uchve business opcra(jp"a.
An exhibit tiom William Allston Pingle,
i sq . referee, which was read by tbe cashier,
showed that tho aflaiis ot the bank had been
managed with great ability. '1 houtrh laboring
under great disadvantages, and having to con?
tend with oonsiderahe opposition, the bank
was enabled to pav the taoe r due of the hills

atti have a Urge surplus of assets for the bene?
fit of the stockholders.
After the reading of the exhibit, the roll of
the stockholders was called, but a sufficient
number did not answer to their names or by
proxv to form a quorum (t wentv-one hundred
shares being require i forthat purpose.)
Mr. C. G. Hemmioger moved that, as it was
clearly expedient for the bank to go into ope?
ration, it be left to tbe president and board et.
directors to take such steps as would further
this object.
It is eenerally understood tbat application
will be soon made lo ihe Govern jr and Co'rap
troller-Generel for the benefit of the au t of the
