S.O. 23)r Cbnrltplon ICcivs WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1871, NEWS OF THE DAT. -Gold at New York, yesterday, closed at 14Ja 14gc -The New York cotton market closed stead? ier; uplands 19?c; sales 4272 bales. -At Liverpool cotton closed Urm; uplands 9ja9jd; sales 10,000 bales. -The Savannah Jockey Club is reorgan? izing. -Ex-Collector Gould, of Savannah, an al? leged defaulter and fugitive, who was pursued Into the wilds of Florida, it ls rumored bas been murdered. -Lieutenant M. F. Maury is to deUver the address at the Memphis fair, in October, and Generals Ewell, Beauregard and Joseph E. Johnston are to be present. -On ac count o? the absence of the Governor of Georgia for nearly three montbs, the State treasurer gives notice that he will pay no more warrants without a resident Governor to ap? prove them, except on the civil establishment and special appropriations, when the law sp?cifies the amount. -The Australian knave, who sails under the name of Fisher, and declares himself the true Messiah, ls now attracting great attention. He says he Is not only the incarnation of Christ, but also of KlngDavld, and, being the incarnation of King David, Is entitled to four wives instead of one, and four he has. -A ukase, issued by the Emperor of Russia Immediately alter his return from Germany, ls very characteristic, and it probably was not expected by the party which endeavors to show Its Russian patriotism by attacking everything German. The Czar has instructed the ministry of education to eee that the study of German shall take the pr ?OJ itv of French in all public and private schools, and that more time be devoted to the study of the former than the latter language. -A Washington letter of Sunday says: "Letters received here to-day from excellent sources state that General Butler will fail lo be nominated for governor of Massachusetts In the Worcester Convention, which meets on < Wednesday next. They add, however, that he will prjbably be nominated lor the same position by the labor convention, which meeta i on October 3d, and that he will accept and en? ter vigorously into the canvass for the office. In such an event a plurality will elect." -The Norfolk (Va.) papers nc te the arrival there on' th? 21st, per Allan steamer Caspian, Of twenty-four English tamiles, numbering fif? ty-six Individuals. "Of these some are des? tined for North Carolina and Tennessee, but the greater portion are going to Ihe colonies at Chrlstlan8Vi)le <n Mecklenburg, Painplln's and Prospect, In appomattox, and at Wytbe vllle, In Wythe County, Virginia. They are an , excellent class ol emigrants, calculated to de? velop the resources of the sections In which they intend to ?ettie. They are In charge of Colonel J. T. Shanks, the immigration agent.'1 -Some time must, elapse belore the costing of the commemorative war-medals, in Germa? ny, made from the metal of captured French bronze cannon, will be completely finished, the royal mint being just now so busy with other work that not more than seven thousand med? als can be produced dally. The breaking up ol the cannon ls carried on In the royal foundry, from which the pieces are taken to Borchel l's "?^f?b?i??lment, where they are melted and rolled into narrow metallic strips, and dis? patched in this form to the mint. As yet only Ihe guards and the Saxon corps have received their medals; the soldiers are all to be fur? bished with them belore any are distributed to non-combatants. -The Tallahassee Floridian wants somebody in Washington lo hunt up some $13,000 of bonds out ol which ihe Slate ol Florida was swindled in 18GS, In un authorized purchase by Governor Reed (a carpet-bagger Irom Wiscon? sin, whose robberies of ihe State have enricL ed himself, if they have impoverished Florida) of a lot of worthless old arms. The actual amount paid for arm?, saya the Floridian, was $15,000 in bonds, and these bonds were held lu 1869 by Charles Mlles, the father-in-law ot the person who sold the arms lo Reed. The Governor rendered a bill against the State of $21,003 in cash, and reported that he had sold $30,000 In bonds to pay the bill, when In fact Ihe cost of the arms was only $15,000 In bonds. -A short time ago the inhabitants of Green Bay, Wisconsin, were startled at the sudden arrival in their town of twenty-five lamilies of Icelanders, who proposed to settle In that vi? cinity. 1 hey tock up their abodes on Wash? ington Island, at the mouth of Green Bay, and were soon busily engaged in ereclng dwel? lings and preparing the ground for farmiDg purposes, going to work with a will. These twenty-five families, however, are but the pio? neers ol a much larger immigration into the game region ot the inhabitants of Iceland. It ls said that several thousand famille s are pre? paring to leave their homes In that lilgid isle, and will come to this country, where they may spread themselves along the line of the Northern Pacific Railroad, and through the sections bordering upon the Red River. They are industrious and frugal people, ?s are all other immigrants of the Scandina? vian race, and must prove ol' great value to tne region which they have selected fora new .home. -it has long been known that the whole of the country lying ?long the Siberian rivers is a vast deposit o? Ure remains ol ancient, pre? historic animals, principally elephants, or be? longing to that species, which were entombed by some terrible and wide-spread convulsion. They are round in the alluvial soil, and imbed? ded In the ice of the Arctic regions, some? times witb the flesh preserved to such a de? gree of perfection that dogs eagerly devour it. Our Alaska possessions are scarcely le "ich in these underground stores, including a vast amount ol ivory, which have been found along the larger streams of that section that have, so far, been explored. The marshy grounds bordering on the rivers is underlaid with bones and tusks, and the latter can be seen sometimes Bticklng out of the mud like the stumps ol sapplings. A comparatively small portion of the ivory which is, at the present time in the market, is obtained from the live animals, by far the greater quantity being dug up by the ''ivory hunters,"' as they are called, in Alaska, Siberia and the Arctic regions; tBe product of elephants that lived and roamed there thousands of years ago. The Debt and Financial Condition vf \ the State. )ne great characteristic o? the State debt of South Carolina is that, although the sum is solemnly declared to be constant, it is never twice reported at the same amount. This eccentricity, to use no harsher word, is unpleasantly conspicuous in the report sub? mitted to the Ku-Klux eommittee by bis Ex? cellency Governor Scott. Confining onr attention to the last three official, or quasi-official, statements which have been made, we obtain the following re? sult: October 31st, 1870. Funded public debt of the State (not Including railroad endorsements) accord? ing to the official report of the State Comptroller-General.$7,665.908 98 -May, 1871. Funded public debt, as reported officially to the Tax? payers' Convention....$9,665,908 98 September, 1871. Funded public debt of the State, as reported by Governor Scott.$9,528,564 10. The discrepancy between the amount re? ported by the Comptroller in October, 1870, and the amount reported by him to the Tax? payers' Convention in the following May, is accounted for by the omission from this Octo? ber report of $2,200,000 or State bonds, then actually sold, or hypothecated to secure loans to the State. For the difieren ce be? tween the Comptroller's May statement and Governor Scott's September statement, we do not attempt to account. Nor would it be worth while to do BO. The Comptroller General will make another report next No? vember, which, we suppose, will be as differ? ent from the preceding statements as they are from each other. We fear, indeed, that the State officials are more intent upon patching np such a debt-statement as will bear scrutiny io Wall street, than upon showing, in an unmistakable way, what is the amount of the public mortgage upon the property or the people of the State. Assuming, for the sake of argument, that Governor Scott's September report is correct, the debt of the State is: Amount of bonded debt existing prior to the war. $4,046,540 li Amount of bonds issued by Pro? visional Government. 1,023,473 94 amount ol bonds issued by pres? ent administration. -'.458.550 00 Debt according to Scott. $9.526,564 10 To this must be added: 1. The difference between the true amount due on the fire loau sterling bonds past due and unpaid, $788,222 27, and that stated in tne Compti Mer General's report, $484,44^ 67. .$ 383,777 76 I. Blue Bldge Railroad bonds... 4,000,000 00 $13,912,341 86 Less amount of bonds paid at ma? turity, according to Governor Scott's report. 250,000 00 Total debt of the State.$13,662,341 86 We deduct the $250,000 which is declared to have been paid; but how are we to know that the floating debt hos not been increased by an equal amount? The State owed its Financial Agent, in May last, $800,000. How much does the State owe him now ? The only additions we make to the figures given by Governor Scott are: (1) the difference be? tween the true and the published amount of the debt due on the Fire Loan bonds, and (2) the amount of the bonds of thc Blue Ridge Railroad guaranteed by the State. We do not take into account the other contingent railroad liabilities of the State, amounting (see Scott's report) to $2,712,008 20; be? cause we hope that, as Governor Scott says, '.?a thejmmt of any of the above roads fail? ing to meet the interest on the guaranteed "bonds, the State is perfectly secure." 2i't the $4,000,000 of Blue Ridge bonds cannot be included in this category, the State hav? ing in their case little or no ??carlty. One statement made by Governor Scott in regard to the Bine Ridge bonds is particularly dis? ingenuous. He says "none of the bonds "have yet been put on the market." This is literally true. No Blue Ridge bonds have been "put on the market," but at least $3, 100,000 of the whole $4,000,000 are hypothe? cated to secure contracts made by the com? pany, or the money which it has borrowed. The attempt to fasten upon preceding ad? ministrations the responsibility for $8,162,. 440 of Lueavnire direct debt of the State will fail now as it has failed before. Governor Scott reports, for instance, that $500,000 of Bills Receivable, issued by the Provisional Government, have been redeemed by the present administration. We do not doubt that hulf-a-niiliion dollars was paid out in this money ; but the bills which were redeemed were issued by Governor Scott's administra? tion, or were redeemed thrice over. Gov? ernor Orr in his message, presented to the Legislature when the Scott administration took office, says: "On the first day of May, "1868, there was outstanding and iu circula? tion of thesebill3 receivable only $135,687," and Governor Scott himself says, in his mes? sage, that the amount outstanding on May 1, 1868, was $220,000. How was thc $135,687, or the $220,000, conjured into S500.000? Nor will the statement made of the past due interest, and other debts of preceding ad? ministrations, paid by the Scott adminii tration, bear the least examination. It is rather cool, for example, to place upon the convenient backs of preceding administra? tions the responsibility for interest on the State debt up to -July l, 1869, when it is an indisputable fact that the Scott administra? tion came into power in May, 1868, fourteen months before. But we are not disposed to push the Scott financiers to the wall, nor do we desire to take a gloomy view of the situ? ation. It is sufficient to know that the Radi? cal government of South Carolina, in three years, have, in round numbere, doubled the public debt of the State. Upon the subject of taxation we have only a few words to say. For ten years previous to the war the average annual taxation was $431,000. Dur-Dg the past three years, ac? cording to Governor Scott's own statement, the appropriations have been as follows: 1668.-Total taxation.$1,338,742 1869. -Total taxation. 1,014,901 1870. -Total taxation. 1,070,063 TOTAL TAXATION.$4,023,706 ANNUAL AVERAGE.$1,341,235 We are glad to see tbat Governor Scott is confident that the Legislature, at the next session, will amend the election law so as to close the door against fraud; and if Gov? ernor Scott carries out, in good faith, the promises which he made to the May Con? vention, we Bhall be inclined to blot outfall remembrance of his ingenious report to the Ku-KIux committee upon the financial con? dition of the State.
