The Tichborne trial recommenced on the 7th Instant io Londoo, and the lat fellow who claims to be the veritable Slr Roger ts again undergoing that delightful badgering at the hands ol Kr.SollOitor, which has heretofore add? ed so much interest to the trial. Io the interval between tue postponement und Hie resump? tion ot this famous cause, a i;reat deal ot evl-1 dence berring on the claims of the sell-assert-1 lng Sir Roger has been g Uttered from the four quarters o.r the world. All these new facts I which will either make or mar the claimant to' the Tichborne title, will come out in ihe course of the resumed trial. -North Carolina is becoming Ihe land, par J excellence, of executions. It was only a week or two ago that two wretches expiated their crimes on the scaffold of that Slate, and now another has met bis death in the sume man-1 ner. The criminal in the case was Mack Swann, a uegro, who was convicted of an om- j rageous assault upon an estimable lady seven ty years of age. The jury was thoroughly Im? partial, being composed of six while and six colored men, and the evidence was too con elusive to admit of a shadow ol' doubt as to the I guilt of the accused, who, nevertheless, stub j bornly asserted his Innocence to the last, A large crowd assembled at Smithfield, where the execution was to take place, but the sheriff doomed them to disappointment, and not more ] than twenty persons were allowed to enter the Jail yard. The preparations heinz concluded, Swann was marched to the scaffold, attended by a strongly armed guard. He manifested au unusual degree of fortitude, and ascended the steps firmly and steadily. Being asked if he had anything to say, he merely remarked that he hoped his friends would meet him in Heav? en; and then, after a fervent prayer by the* clergyman, the drop lei). The neck was not broken, and death resulted' Hem strangu? lation. -An interesting Interview was held a few days ago with the ex-Rmperor Napolet representative of toe Exeter and Ply Gazette, an English journal. The illu exile was cheerful and communicative was evidently glad of the opportunity press his sentiments in such a way as t them introduced to the world. He sp his great gratification at the manner in the English people had treated him in h fortune, averring, indeed, that if e\ should return to France, he was in dar going back more English than F He stated that to occupy the Tbrc France was not an enviable pi --every Frenchman having differeu itics from his neighbor. He tb the workmen of Paris were beginning t ize that they were better off under th pire than with the Republic. In regard Prussian war, he said that while all Fr? except himself-believed that the French going to march upin Berlin right away, < thing went wrong irom the beginning, at present engaged iu writing a bist< those events, a3 he thought a true rec the actual facts would be interesting to F and Europe. It having been remarked I interviewer that lt would have been v France and England had joined to resist sia at the outset, when thai power au Denmark, Napoleon quietly replied "France was then in a difficult posltioD would have had to light Austria and Pr uss Fight tUe Common Euemy ! There is nothing that the Scott would like better than to see the CHA TOM NEWS and the Charleston Courier ing, in wordy controversy, the thought energy which, if well directed, may I the public robbers to the bar o? justice, lift from the shoulders of the people double burden of illegal debt and roi taxation. The Couria' cannot, whatev may say, cause the position of this pap be misunderstood by the people of the S and we cannot be diverted, by queslio innuendo, from the one great object we ia view, viz., to find, if it be possible, a pie and practical way of exposing the fr of the government, and of preventir continuance of the cheating and extr gance which threaten the Commonwe with ruin. -We shall, as we have already said sisi the payment of any debt qf the ? which has been contracted in fraud. Ac may become necessary to throw ihe but of proof upon the holders of the obligat tainted with illegality. We cannot tell present, what particular form of raset has been practiced ; whether a simple o issue et bonds, or a duplication of autl ized issues, or the contraction of a h floating debt which was expected to be fe ed, in some way, upon the bended back the people. We know, to begin with, l $3,500,000 of the sterling funding bonds hypothecated in New York as collat) security. The whole issue of these ber amounting to $6,000,000, were practici repudiated last May, when the taxpayers, convention, gave formal notice that the called sterling funding bonds would not held binding, and that their payment, or enforcement of any tax to pay the 3ar would be resisted, in every manner and all times, by all legitimate means within 1 power of the peopie. It is charged, 1 sides, that fraudulent issues have been ma to the amount of many million dollars, a it is stated that the bonds declared to be hand cannot be produced by the officers whose custody they are said to be. The circumstances might b? sufficient to just the taxpayers aud property-holders ia ma ing tbe demand, when that demand ci effectively be made, that the holder of eve bond issued by the Scott administration, f any purpose, shall prove tbat the bond question was issued and used in accordant with law. This would protect tbe poop against fraudulent bonds, and would enab them to assume, at once, such bonds as wei shown to be of unquestionable validit; But, after all, repudiation can only come i tho future. We want a remedy fofWep'r sent and pressing evil. There ia a hope Lhi means will be found in South Carolina, as i New York, of bringing the State offlcei into court, where they may be forced to giv an account of their stewardship. But tb process may be difficult as well as tedious and the more we ponder the necessity c sharp and decisive action, the more Batist!? are we that it is of supreme importune tbat not a dollar of taxes should be pai into the treasury of the State, until ever fraud is brought to light, the dishonest off dals are removed, the expenses of the gov eminent are reduced, and such laws ar passed as will give the taxpayers and prop erty-holders a ju3i and reasonable protec tion against corrur .ion and theft. Up to this time the Scott Ring has bee kept together, and kept in power, by it complete control over the revenues and th credit of the State. The taxes could b used, and the State bonds could be pawned" whenever money was wanted for carryinj on a private speculation or for buying up ai inconveniently out-spoken opponent. On source of revenue is nearly entirely cut oil Money might be had at cent per cent, bu no considerable amount can be raised upot any term3. The credit of the State is gone And they who think that they may trust tc the colored voters of South Carolina to forci the property-holders to pay all the bondi which the Ring may choose to print, will not be comforted by the assurance, whick we can give them, that several of the lead ing colored men in the State Legislature have, for months past, openly advocated re? pudiation. The difference between these colored legislators and ourselves is just this: They wish to repudiate the whole debt, old and new, without exception, while we de? sire to resist the payment of only those bonds which are illegal and a fraud upon the State. We think it reasonably certain, therefore, that the Ring cannot obtain money by selling or hypothecating more bogus bonds. And the needs of the Ring are heavy and immediate. The members of the General Assembly and the officers of the body have not received their pay for the lat? ter part of the session of 1S70-T1. Upon this account alone, including the furnishing bill of General Dennis, about $205,000 are due. Nearly all the State officers and county officers have claims for the salary of muny months. The State treasury is empty, and the connty treasuries are in like case. Then, again, it is customary for the Legislature to appropriate SIOO.OOO or $150,000, early in the session, so that the members may be paid oil before the Christmas holidays. Be? sides these amon?te, there is the interest on the bonded debt"Tailing due on the 1st of January, which may be set down at -250,000 ?or $300,000. We think it a moderate est?? mate to put the requirements ol the Biog, from this time to the new year, at ONB MIL? LION DOLLARS, without takiDg into account whatever small bille may be due Kimpton and the New York money-lenders. Where is one million of dollars to come from between November and February? It can only come from the pockets of the peo? ple. Let the people stand together and re? fuse to pay a dollar of Stale and county laxes, and the Ring cannot obtain the means of paying current expenses or of settling with Uieir clamorous creditors. This can be done under the law, and without count? ing on Scott's promise that the taxes shall not be collected until March. Cp to the 15th of January the State and county taxes may be paid without even the risk of a line. Thousands of persons have not tbe money with which to pay the taxes, and they who have the money should stand shoulder to shoulder with their poorer brethren who have it not. We feel, indeed, that any per? son who.-pays taxes now is offering a pre? mium to robbery-is giving the Ring some? thing to Bteal. It is policy and duty to hold back every cent from the bands still soiled with public plunder. We do not fear that the Legislature, if | they have the power, will have the will to extricate the Bing from the dilemma in which their rascality has placed them. Tbe majority of the members of the Legislature have had no share of the spoils. A few of the legislators have grown suddenly I rich-the rest cannot obtain payment of their pay certificates unless they sell them at | a heavy discount to the bank in Columbia which the Ring contioL Think of it, ye members of the Legislature, ye county and State officers ! The Ring receive millions of j dollars in taxes, and issue millions after mil lions of bonds, but they cannot sive you the few hundred dollars which you have earned ! They rob you, as they rob the taxpayers and property-holders of the State. The many suffer; the profit goes to the few. Keep back the money, and the rascals of j the Ring will be exposed in all their naked deformity. We have an opportunity now of j bruising the rogues of the Ring between the | upper and nether millstone. The certainty that the illegal Scott bonds will not be recog? nized, and tbe practical measure of refuging J to pay a dollar more to the corrupt officers | of the State Government, can hardly fail to bring the rogues to their knees at the feet of | the people whom they have robbed and op? pressed. The Rebela " Denounce Ku-Kluihm. The Survivors' Association of the State of South Carolina is'composed of " those who 'served in the Confederate army or nary 'to the close of the war, or nonorably re? signed or were discharged therefrom." Any persons, not members of the army or navy, who performed service for the Con? federate cause, of distinguished gallantry and merit, may also become members. Upon the rolls of the association are the most dis? tinguished soldiers of the State. Geaeral Wade Hampton is president Lieutenant General Anderson, Major General Kershaw, Brigadier General McGowan, Major Gen? eral Buller and General Arthur M. Man igault are vice-presidents. The Survivors' Association, in a word, represents more thoroughly than any other organization could do what the Northern press are pleased to call "the Rebel element" in South Carolina. From such an organization, our Northern brethren would certainly not ex? pect any condemnation of Ku-Kluxism. They would, on the contrary, look to it for a tacit approval of the wrongful acts which have brought martial law upon the upper counties of the State. : ut the Survivors Association, reflecting the sentiments of the people, has taken up the question of Ku Kluxism, and at its annual meeting, held last week in Columbia, unanimously adopted a r?solution declaring its earnest and solemn disapprobation of all organizations, or com? binations, for the purpose of violating the laws, or the rights of any person thereunder. The resolution was introduced by Genera) Kershaw, as the report of a committee, and was adopted without dissent We say to the people of the North and West, and to the people of this State and the rest of the South, that no better evidence could be bad that public opinion in South Carolina is steadfastly opposed to the violence and law? lessness which go by the name of Ku-Klux ism. The Blue Ridge Railroad. We print to-day a highly interesting letter on the subject of the Blue Ridge Railroad. I The writer supports his statements by ao j imposing array of figures, and, if the expect? ed reorganization takes place at the ap? proaching meetiog, we tball hope to Bee some searching reforms ia the management of the road. As long as the concern remains in the bands of tbe persons who now control it, we can hardly expect any lastiDg change for the belter. Both the city and* the State are deeply interested in the progress of the road, and we hope that Detective's letter, in any event, will be honored with some little I attention. (Eoncanorm.. Jf^J-?S.
