Shall We Bo Taxed without Repre , acntatlonl For forty-five days, tho capital of South Carolina-a aovoreign and in? dependent State-hos been disgraced by a mongrol party of ignorant ad? venturers, ronegade natives and stu? pid negroes, constituting a self-styled Legislature, and assuming, under the sanction of tho bayonet, to make ?aws for the government of the land? owners and intelligent masses of our people. How this unnatural and il? legitimate organization found birth, is well known. How it came to poss that tho spawn and fungi of Northern society, and tho newly-emancipated and uneducated black men of the South, came into and are now exer? cising power, needs no repetition. Startling as tho anomaly is, it pre? sents, nevertheless, au incontroverti? ble fact; and deep as may be the re? gret entertained by evory citizen who is interested in order and the welfare of the State, at this painful feature in so-called free government, tho un? prejudiced world will do the white men of the South the justice to say, that they have borno the infliction of this crying disgrace with wonderful forbearance. Tho press of the land has, with raro exceptions, counselled the peo? ple to moderation, and the people have submitted to tho injuries im? posed on thom without attempting to exercise any other remedy than that afforded by tho ballot-box, and then even in tho faco of infamous frauds openly perpetrated by the party in power. But patience, .sometimes, ceases tc be a virtue, and the continued donia of God-given privileges and rights, justifies the resort to extraordinary means for their recovery and per? petuation! To our apprehension, that moment is approaching in the history of our down-trodden people, and whilst wo deprecate any recourse to physical power for tho vindication of our rights, as inexpedient and un wise, wo do not hesitate to comment the employment of other agencies, quite as officient, in securing a speedy but peaceful solution of the diffionl ties by which we aro embarrassed, Not the least obvious of these is the refusal to lend countenance or aid te a government in which we have nt participation or representation whilst it is proposed, at the sam* time, to tax us to doath for its snp port. Tho so-called General Assembly o this State is now engaged in perfect ing a scheme which will place all tin burdons of taxation upon the proper ty-ownere of the State, a large olas of whom are denied the right to ai< in tho legislation of the nation o State, whilst it exempts tho vor people who enjoy all tho power am aro freed from the burthens of gc vernment. Nor is this ail. It is o the eve of seizing the funds of th State-we moan the bills receivable for tho redemption of which in goo faith the credit of the Stato stand pledged-seizing them on tho ?am principio that tho highwayman oom mands you to stand and deliver-an then by express resolution, they ar to bo paid to the membors at a di predation of thirty per cont. Nearl $100,000 of these fonds are to be stolen from the Treasury and thrust upon tho market, where it is obvious tha? if circulated at all, they will bo only ! at an enormous discount. Those bills, mu receivable for taxes, how? ever; and herein lies tho hope of the carpet-bagger, who takes Si.30 for every dollar claimed to bo due him by the State as compensation for his services as a member; and then if ho has any taxes to pay-which is, at best, doubtful-he returns thom to the treasury at their par value. So for overy thousand dollars issued, the State, under tho most favorable cir? cumstances, can receive only sevon hundred in return. Thoro is one way to obviate tho otherwise ovil effects of this manifest outrage, and wo commend it to the consideration of our people. Refuse to take these bills, wider any circum? stances, or al any price. That they will bo eventually worthless, no ono doubts; and it may as woll bo under? stood now, at home and abroad, that the tax-paying people of tho State thoso from whoso purses is expected to como tho redemption of these bills-utterly repudiate them, as they vi ill any other debt created by a Go? vernment in which they are not repre? sented, and whose acts, like those whioh gavo them hirth, they regard as usurpations, and unconstitutional, revolutionary and void. TU?; Quo Warranto C ase. At 10 o'clock, Monday morning, judgment was delivered in this case. The gentleman representing the State and all of the counsel for the respondent being present. The judgment will be found in another part of our paper. It disappoints no one in tho result, and tho reasons will probably attract our attention and share our notice in a future issue of the paper. If this be law, then God save the country! Tho military powers of the Constitution has almost as much to do with the ques? tion as has the man in tho moon. The judgment means not law, but arbitrary and tyrannical power neither more nor less. After tho hearing of the injunction, tho coun? sel for the respondent said to the Court, that the gentleman who (mis) represents the Stato might take just such order as ho pleased. They would make no further opposition at this time. They would require until Wednesday morning to preparo their grounds of appeal. Tho effort of the counsel for the respondent has been to shape tho caso so as to get it I up beforo tho Supremo Court of the j United States. Wo aro informed that what appears to the uninitiated to be easy work, is not very easy under the Acts of Congress and thc ruling of tho Supreme Court. Wo trust that the facts may bo so moulded as I to tako the case up. The points, as ! presented, ure as follows: 1. A quo warranto is served upou Mr. Walker, tho Coroner. 2. IIo responds, and exhibits bis commission and the Constitution of 1790, and tho amendments thereto, and tho Acts of tho Legislature of South Carolina. 3. W. B. Johnston replies, and shows his commission and election under thc new negro Constitution of 18G8. 4. Thomas P. Walker rejoins, that tho supposed Constitution of 1868 is no Constitution and is in conflict with tho Constitution of the United States. If this conflict can bo shown, the Supreme Court will entertain juris? diction upon tho ground that a law of the State is in conflict with tho ! Constitution of tho United States. And this has been clearly shown in the argument. It may be necessary, however, to submit the question first to the Supremo Court of the State, and from that opinion tako the caso up. In any event, let us have the case, now clearly made, taken up and decided hy the highest law authority in tho land. More hereafter. A writer in the Tribune reports a conversation he hold with Thad. Ste? vens, a short time before his death. On speaking to him of his congres? sional career, Mr. Stevens said: "I have achieved nothing in Congress. Until the war began, I was a plodder without influence, and since it began, I have been so radical that I had na control over anybody." "No," he added, after a pause of a moment or two, "I'm not over prond of my con? gressional career." A locust stung a radical editor ont West the other clay. Tho locust died. -,-.-: ACCIDENT OFF THE BAB.-Om HAW XJROWHSD.- On Saturday morn? ing, while the boat of two fishermen, named Jennings and Pi.nckney, was off the North bar, it was capsized by a sudden flaw, and tho occupants thrown into tue water.

The Legislature, so-called, was en? gaged yesterday in rending over bills previously reported, and disposing of matters of no public interest. Not au item worth mentioning bas been brought to our attention, beyond the fact that the Judiciary Committee re? ported favorably upon the bill "to close tho operations of the Bank of tho State," which should more pro? perly have been entitled a bill "to empower tho Executive to jeopardize the interests of tho Bank of the State and to provide pickings and stealings for his agents in the mat? ter." WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?-The vir? tuous Montgomery, from Newberry Keouuty, yesterday, gave notice, in the upper House, which sits on the lower floor of Janney's new State House, that he would introduce a bill "for the protection and relief of those who are now, and have been since the lot day of January, 1866, policy-holders in tho Underwriters' Agency, of the city of New York, and other corrupt and fraudulent Fire Insurance Companies doing busi? ness through agents in this State."
