This increase consists of: Funded bills of Bank or State.$1,240,400 00 Issue or 18JS. 300,000 oo Past due interest funded. 24,727 00 Total.$.1,081,127 00 Of thc circumstances aUouding thc fund? ing of the bills ol the Bank of Hie State in Slute bonds, every one is cognizant. Thnt item of inc.reaso limy bc allowed to pass. The $3011,000 [is claimed to be a payment mude in liquidai ion of timi um oma of boat? ing debt created under authority given by the State Legislature of 1865. Thc third item of iucrcase was for funding thc over? due interest on thc State debt. This is very well as fur as it goes. Hut what has been thc increase of the Stale debt not included in thc foregoing tablo? Sena? tor T.nslio said in the Senate, not long ago, that $3,000,000 of South Carolina bonds were held as collaterals by persons In Now York, who bad advanced money to the Slate, and Comptroller-General Neaglo says that $2,700,000 of State bonds "have been "signed up, and placed in thc hands of the "financial agent and remain unsold.' Where do these bonds appear in the state? ment of the total debt? We presume that these bonds cannot by any legerdemain be set down ns thc "bonds for funding the bills "of the Bank of thc State,"or as "the issue "of 186S," or na the "funded past due in "torosl." All timi wc know about them is that they are in New York to Hie amount of | $2,700,000 or $3,000,000, and under thc con? trol of tbe liiiucinl agent of the State. ICImptoti and thc State. Thc report of H. IL Klmpton, Finan cud Agent of th? State of South Carolina, ls published willi the report of the Comptroller General, an official copy of which reached us yesterday. A milo time and attention are necessary to a lucid esplaimtion of what is wellnlgli unintolUgiblo ; but the most na Hcut points may bo noticed at onco. During iho nine months ending in October last, Mr. Kimplon paid over to the State In cash $746,213 33, and paid coupons on Stute bonds to the amount of $196,7H 60. Besides these amounis, Mr. Kimpton charges tho Slate $64,996 71 ns caah "paid ' 'expenses for preparation of Stato bondB, ex "presa chargea, stamps, Interest," Sec. The total amount charged tho State ls, there? fore, $1,007,924 G4. On Hie other side of tho account appears $282,500 paid by tho Stato to Mr. Klmpton, and $210,000 received by him as tho pro? ceeds of the salo of 300,000 State honda'St 70-making a total charge against tho Financial Agent of $492,500, Ou tba face nf Ihc account Hie State owes Mr. Kim pion $510,424 M. It appears, liowovor, that Mr. Klmpton dui not actually advance Imlf u million dol lara i o Uto 8luli; ; for hu acknowledged tho receipt nf tho following securities : lsiis.

CAIN poked Tun at Mr. Corbin in thc Sen alt' on Tuesday in ti very provoking way. After suggesting that Mr. Corbin hud "len "or twenty thousand reasons" why thc phos? phate l'ill should pass, he said that nil the senators knew Mr. Corbin to be "un honest "and conscientious man," who was "cool "and clear-headed," and had the ndv'antugo of thc rest of Hie Senute in "superiority of "mind." Whereat Thc Devil did grin. For bis darling sin ls Hie pride thal apes humility. Hut it was deliciously well done, ?Ul Ute same. Hiatus. WANTED, A GOOD COOK. ALSO. A Chambermaid nnd Seamstress.
