Ihe New York Evening Post hopes oar government will immediately re? call Schenck. who, it says, by permitting his official position to promote stock speculation, humiliates his country and shows un utter want of respect for his high office. -A notable event of the day is tho resigna? tion ol' Mr. Murphy-familiarly called "rom Murphy"-as collector of the port of New York. Mr. Murphy declares that he hus felt it his duty to resign because of the aspersions cast upon his Character. He Insists that he is an honest man, and that he 1ms never been anything else, even in the matter ol' army contracts. He eulogizes his own administra? tion of the customhouse, congratulates thc President that the State of New York has been rod?eme 1. says nothing about packing the Republican convention or bi ?bing the delegate, b it gives up his office solely to promote the harmony of thc party. General Grant resporJs that (he always thought "Tom" Murphy was honest, and he thin s so still, bus-graciously accepts his resignation. -A Washington telegram to the Ruston Post says: "Th.4 propose:! coa'iti. n of the Democratic rariY w'tn anti-Administration and Conservative Betuibli?uusi. inc princi: .. topic among the politicians and leading men who arrive here. The newest phase of it is a combina'ion for the nomination of Mr. I Sumner for Presiden'. Ihe argument in ia 'vor of this :s that he would take from the Republican ratjks more of thc positive voters -.hose who were pronounced anti slavery men ia their ea-ly days-than any other can? didate that CJU'd be named. It is claimed thai besides this lie wou'd get a'l the support of Conserva'ive Republicans that any other nominee could command. The Sumner movement seems to emana'e from dis? affected Republicans and does not meet with warm encouragement from tho Democrats, especially the old line mea. The majority of those who favor a departure from a mere pariy nomination prefer Trumbull or Justice Davis. A large number of Democrats still ad? here to the idea that a regular nomina-ion by the Democratic party, of such an one as Gen? eral Hancock, who would be strong in Penn? sylvania would be the proper course to pur? sue. It is probable that an informal meeting Ol' members of Congress and other leading Democrats will take place early next month to consoler the situation, and In conjunction with the National Democratic Congressional committee, issue an address to the Democracy on the subject." How is it to be Done ; Our contemporary, The Courier, has striven very hard to reduce into an intelligible shape the thousand and one rumors, relating to the finances of the State, with which the air. has been thick since the New York World broke its lance squarely on the shield of the South Carolina King. We think that our neighbor has, now and then, been over-ready to be? lieve implicitly the wildest statements of sen? sational reporters, but it bas worked dili? gently and patiently to get at the truth and to discover a remedy for the evils under which the people labor. This, also, has been the aim of THE NEWS, but we confess that we are not able to see our way as clearly as The Courier appears to do. As the case stands, we have found no immediate and serviceable defensive measure which the peo? ple can adopt, except the withholding of State and connty taxes until the last day of the period during which, under the tax law, they may?, without penalty, be paid. This suggestion has not had the support of The Courier, which paper, however, lass down three propositions which, it thinks, will meet 1 all the requirements of the situation. _Theae propositions are: First. To reject the fraud by refusing to pay one single dollar of principal or interest of these illegal issues. Second. To prevent, by application to in? junction by the courts, any further capacity for mischief. Third. To bring the perpetrators to justice, and subject them to the punishment which thev have invoked upon their own heads. Thia is a highly attractive programme. If the people cen get rid of the fraudulent debt already contracted, and can, besides, pre? vent fraud in the future and bring every knavish official to justice, the measure of their content will be full. Bat bow is it to be done ? The Courier may have discov? ered some occult process by which ita propo? sitions may be changed into tangible facts. To the public, however, in the absence of an explanation from those in the secret, the three propositions must appear vague or .impracticable. In the first place, how is the fTairato be rejected "by refusing to pay one single dol? lar of principal and interest'" of the illegal issues ? The persons aggrieved are the tax? payers or property-holders, and we do not see how they ctn prevent the payment of either interest or principal of any part of the debt. This lies within the control of the State Legislature, and that body lias, hith? erto, cared not a button for the wish?s of the taxpaying citizens. The Legislature may not make an appropriation for, interest, but, even so, their motive will be, not the pro? tection of the taxpayers, but the division, arnongst themselves and their friends, of the entire income of the State. The pay? ment or non-payment of the interest on the debt depends upon the negro majority, and not upon the white minority. And how will The Courier reject, or repudiate, the illegal issues ? "It can give formal notice, as THE NEWS has done, that the taxpayers, when they come into power, will not recognize or pay any fraudulent claim. This is a proper warning, but what does it amount to just at this time ? How does The Courier propose to repudiate-and when ? Nor do we see that there is anything practical in the second proposition. The danger of further over-issues is very remote, but if the Legislature, next week, authorize an issue of ten million of dollars of State bonob how shall ktheir issue be prevented ? As long as the Legislature does not violate the organic law of the State, its acts mu3t stand good with the public and in the courts. Nor can any court, we presume, restrain a State Legislature from passing any law, hew ever infamous. If aa unconstitutional act be proposed, the remedy must be applied after the enactment of the law. A simple proposition to do an unconstitutional act is not a violation of the constitution. When a law ispassed,=and not before, its validity can be tested in the courts. And how could The Courier,or the courts, prevent the Legislature from issuing more bonds, if the issue were in accordance with the organic law of the State? Perhaps The Courier desires to enjoin some State official. Very well. But who is it? And what is he to be enjoined from doing ? We confess that we are in the dark, and we ask The Courier to show the public and our poor selves how its second proposi? tion is to be made something more efficient than a plausible generality. The third proposition is just a9 hard to fathom. We ask The Courier how are "the "perpetrators" to be brought to justice? For several week3 we have had a Pelion upon 0;sa, in the shape of reports cf fraud and theft, but we have not obtained, it seems, a single fact which might serve as a warrant for the arrest of any suspected person. The New York Times had, at its back, a solid array of figures. We have nothing positive -except the famous card of Messrs. Scott, Parker and Dennis. Has The Courier any? thing more definite ? If so, let us have it out, and clo something that will show that we are making headway in the light with the King. We have discussed the propositions ol The Courier, only for the purpose of asking that thoughtful paper to explain itself. We will give Tht Cour er our het-rty help in anything prompt and*practical; but, with our present lights, we do no: see that '.lure is any sub? stantial force n wiu' it ha' ptopo.ed. That Land Scrip. We hope that Senator Whittemore will find .ime, early in the session, to make further nquirie3 as to the disposition made of the jand Scrip given to South Carolina by the General Government About 40,000 acres of the laud were sold tt 95 cents, and the public would like to enow whether the Slate had the benefit of he full price which was paid for the scrip. ind what has become of the remaining 40,000 acres ? Senator Whittemore might .muse himself and serve the public by ascer aining how much land Governor Scott loca ed during his long visit to the West, and vhether he bolds any, or all, of'the State and Ecrip. Senator Whittemore declares that he neans to show the people that he is an hon? st man. This Agricultural College land erip would be a good* thing to begin with, .'be people suspect that there has been foul )lay and want to get at the truth. WE wonder whether the good people who lave just discovered that the official state nenta of our public debt have been sys ematically doctored, from the beginning, by he Scott administration, ever remember, ?th regret, that last year, and the year be ore, THE NEWS proved, by the official fig ires, that the amount of debt reported by he Governor and Comptroller-General was aillions less than the true total. At that ime THE NEWS was abused, on all sides, as ? paper which was recklessly breaking down he credit of the State. Had the people istened then to our statements they would ie in better plight this day. hosteller's Hitters. "f?T* ABRE8T DECAY-WHEN A liant or a tree begins to decay it must needs die.
