ii fi i <f i i Y\ ? ... r * v i ? COLUMBIA, S, C. .friday Morning, July 33, 1869. - The New York Times, trxiVk feoteifur^ niahed bj the Attorney-General of Benth Carolina, publishes a review o? the finan? cial condition of oar S ta to, from which it deduces the moat choerful conclusions, and from the souudneas of her finances, j puta "the proepcota of Booth Carolina" j in advance of the rest of the Southern States. Wo apprehend that the pros? pects of South Oarolfna are attributable to the smallness of her existing debt, and the fidelity with which she has always met her obligations, rather than to the efforts of this "yong man" of such rare finanoial ability. The Acts of the Legislature authorizing Governr Scott to URO IB bonds and credit of the State furnished the "young man" with a mass of collateral securities whioh rendered the raising of money not such a stroke of genius after all. That the money was raised, we know to our cost, through tho medium of every tax-gatherer in the State. The late Blue Bidge Boad nffuir is suffi? cient by itself to show that railroads have derived substantial aid and com? fort from South Carolina. The finances have been well handled so far only ns to meet the expenditures of a reckless and spendthrift government, and to satisfy the requisitions of the banditti who hover around the State Treasury for pillage and plunder. We fancy that, unprotected by these iron-clad securities, this "yoong man of morned experience," who became the finanoial agent of South Carolina by the unanimous ohoice of the Governor, Treasurer and Attorney-Gene? ral, in spite of his personal investment in the bonds, aod his unlimited confidenco in the honor of South Carolina and the negro Legislature, might have tried Wall street in vain for a rise at his bait. If the financial status of South Caro? lina is restored to its former integrity, we venture the assertion to the Times that it will never be from the financial jugglery of either this "extraordinary young man" or the administration of government by her present officials, but by her own people will be worked out her redemption. By honest labor, un? tiring energy and fertile lauds shall this good work be effected. THE RICHMOND GRAND JOBY AND "Gov." BOLLOCK.-Some blatherskite Bullookite sends the following to tho Savannah News, in an evelope post? marked Augusta. As a specimen of radical politicul literature wo print it verbatim et literatim. It will be seen that the writer entertains orthodox radical ideas on the subject of holding office, which he evidently regards in the light of license to steal. He seems to think that Bullock has no other use for his "paT s" but to steal from the public crib. Thc writer is, no doubt, an ardent admirer of the Bullock, and n good radical, either of the black or white persuasion. But read his missive: "The example of the grand jury of Richmond County should be followed by every grand jury in tho State, each pre? sentment closing with an invitation to Bullock to vacate tho office which ho is so unfit to fill, and the towera of which he is using for the basest partisan pur? poses." Oh, poo fellow, I sei whore tho Shoe Pinches you aunt 30t your paws in tho crib Stealing thats whats the matter been Stealing for the last 30 years-and Your paws are out that what hurts. perhaps you heard the Samo Story about augusta official tell the democrats got in dia you hear any moro about Steal? ing but saying aboutit and I will request you to call on democrats to seo who stole the most paws out of the crib. anon. EX-PKESIDENT JOHNSON IN NASHVILLE. A Nashville telegram, dated July 15, to the Louisville Courier, says: Ex-President Johnson arrived in tho city to-day from East Tennessee. He has several appointments to spenk in Middle and West Tennessee before tho election. He is delighted nt tho present situation iu Tennessee, and, although ho says little about his own aspirations, there is littlo doubt ho has a sharp look? out for tho United States Senatorship. Should thoro bo a conservative majority in the Legislature, as is not unlikely, he will he likely to have Emerson Ethor idgo and Bailey Peyton as rivals for tho place, but there is little doubt that Andy will secure tho prize. The gubernatorial canvass still goes on briskly. Lawless? ness of any kind is something almost unheard of now in Tennesse. It is our painful duty to announce the death of Dr. Jumes E. Hix, a prominent citizen of this town, on Friday last, in the fifty-third yoar of his age. Dr. Hix has been always identified with Union, was a physician of good practico, and nu enterprising and public-spirited citizen. [Union Times. It cost 8208 to try a colored man at Columbus, Ga., for stealing a chicken valued at 37 cents. Meeting or tb? Magistrate?. Wej?py thf fol?fwilg from ,thet Sa-; ?fft? meetttg of sthe Magistrate?- of Chatham County, the fbllowiD? prqhm-f blrf?ndfcawnlriions ?rex? adoptad by tbi undersigned: , Whereas, by a recent decision of his Honor Walter S. Chisholm, Judge of the oily court of Savannah, in regard io magistrates and constables collecting costs from the defendant, it is impossi? ble to enforce the collection of the same, excepting leyy, and then not until after final conviction-it is hereby 1. Resolved, That in all oases where we are called upon to issue a warrant, the prosecutor must advance the som of five dollars ($5.00), to pay the magistrate's and constable's ooo ts. 2. Resolved, That in all cases where a magistrate draws a bond for the defend? ant, he shall be paid five dollars for the same. 3. Resolved, That in all cases good and reliable security shall be reqnired, or else the party shall be committed to jail to await his trial. Whilst we feel that the above position will bear hard upon the poor man who has suffered on injury from the hands of another, and wishes the judgment of the law to be administered as a punishment for the oriminal, we find the law so in? differently arranged in regard to the pay? ment for our services, viz: 1st, Tho County is not responsible for onr coste; I 2d, The defendant cannot be compelled to pay bur costs, until after final convic? tion, and oven then, no provision is made, and the magistrate cannot collect the same from the city court (that court having jurisdiction in misdemeanors); and, in caaes of felony, providing if the defendant is convicted, the court may or may not, in its discretion, pay the costs, (which to us would be about the same as no costs at all) ; our representatives are so unmindful to the proper steps to be taken to secure good and efficient ju? dicial officers, and provide for a proper remuneration for the same; the senti? ment of the people so embittered with regard to the defendant paying costs un? til after final conviction-that wo arc forced to the adoption of these rules. We are willing, to tho best of our ability, to serve the community, but at the same time conceive it to be our duty, as well os our right, both to ourselves and fami? lies, to require payment for our ser? vices.

That the drum fish has been operating it the waters near Koyport will be unwel come news to the lovers of oysters it New York and vicinity. This fish re ccives its name from the peculiar no ist it makes when taken from tho water {i sort of aquatic partridge.) There li nothing unpleasant about the noise, bu the presence of the fish on an oyster bet is the reverse of gratifying to those wh< make their living by raising oysters foi market. The drnm fish has a pair o powerful jaws with teeth like those o an old-fashioned com-sheller, and work ing with the forco of a model quart: mill. Between these jaws he can orusl a yoting ovster as easily as a boy crushe a chesnu. and after sucking out the pal] ho rejects tho shell, and is ready fo: another. He is expert in the business and can crush oysters faster than tin most skillful professional at Fulton Mar ket could open them. Lost week, it wa discovered that a large school of dru DC fish was making sad havoc among thi oyster beds near Keyport, and it is esti mated that 20,000,000 young oyster havo been destroyed, involving a loss o $100,000. From present appearance there will be very few Shrowsburys ii market next winter, and the prices o tho best oysters aro likely to be abov those of any previous year. [New York Sun, July 5. Thc Prince of Wales must be th prince of spendthrifts, if tho Btorie about his "straitened circumstances cnn bo relied on. His annual incom cannot be much, if any, less than ?150 000 and may exceed that sum. Andy? it is pir"osed to appeal to Parliamet to pi?j tho Prince's traveling oxponses i tho East, in consideration of his "na: row" resources. Seven or eight hm dred thousand dollars a year, ouo wonl think, ought to keep a prince from bo( ging. A COOIJ PROPOSITION.-A report "o the resources of Icoland and Greenland is said to havo been drawn up lately ft the tiBe of the United States Goveri ment, with the view, it is thought, < their ultimate purchase.

CHABLSBITON, July 19,186?. /Ton. Jf. J. Motes, Chief Justice of South Carolina, Sumter, S. C.: DEAR Sm: Tho City Council of Charles? ton having recently held an election for all city officers, we wore retained by W. N. H?ges, the Assessor; C. P. Frazer, the Assistant-Assessor; P. C. Querry, the Sheriff; C. N. Averill, the Flour Inspec? tor, and some other officers, to advise them na to their rights and duties. After examination of the cases, we came to the conclusion that the above named officers had been elected to their respec? tive offices for terms whioh have not yet expired, and that their removal by the City Council, without cause or hearing, was illegal, and we accordingly advised them not to surrender their offices to those claiming to bo their successors un? til the question of their right had been determined by judicial authority. On the 9th day of Joly, instant, the Council passed resolutions, directing the Mayor to expel the city officers claiming to hold, and to employ the police for this pur? pose. On the 12th instant, we addressed a communication to Hon, G. Pillsbury, Mayor, notifying him of the advice we had given to our clients, and that as citi? zens, they claimed the protection of the law in the vindication of what we be? lieved to bo their rights, and they ex? pected his official assistance! to that end. We also stated that we had advised our clients that the resolutions of Council would not constitute a valid protection to any city officer for any forcible or ille? gal act, and that we would advise them as to the course to be pursued to protect themselves against foroe, adding that we hoped to have from him snob assistance that no violence would be resorted to with his sanction, as will make it un? necessary to invoke the protection of the law against him. To this communica? tion, we have received no reply. On the 15th and 16th instants, the Mayor made a written demand on the Assessor, Assistant-Assessor and Sheriff to deliver possession of their offices to their successors. To these communica? tions wo replied, repeating that these officers were aoting under our advice, and could not desist from the ?perform? ance of the duties of their offices until commanded to do so by the law. No further communication was received by any of these officers. On Saturday, the 17th instant, Judge Carpenter sailed for New York. On this (Monday) morning the City Assessor, j Air. Hughes, tbe Assistant Assessor, Mr. I Frazer, and the Sheriff, Mr. Querry, on going to their respective offices, found thom open and in possession of those claiming to bo their successors-n police? man stationed ut each door-who said ho was instructed to forbid and prevent their entrance. Upon inquiry of tho Chief of Police, they were informed that this action had been taken under the or? ders of the Mayor. Tho doors of the offices had been locked on Saturday, and tho keys were iu possession of tho officers; tho locks must, therefore, have been forced or picked. Each of tho officers had private desks and property in their offices. Wo have advised our clients that it is clearly their right to bo restored to tho possession which has been taken from thom by force aud fraud, and that those claiming tho oifie.es eau then assort their rights to possession through the courts; but that they will hot be allowed to take advantage of their own wrong and vio? lence, to prejudice the rights of tho in? cumbents. But this force and violence was not re? sorted to until our resident Judge had gone away, so that our oliente must seek a Judge to whom they can apply for tho protection of tho law. They are all men of slender means, and the expense and delay of such an application is so far be yoncf them, that it would amount to a denial of justice. In addition to this, it would bo much more difficult, if not im? possible, to fairly hear such cause away from Charleston, where all the parties, wituesses and records, which it may be necessary to examine, during the pro? gress of tho oause, are. Under these circumstances, wo have determined to apply to you, the highest judicial officer of tho State, for the hear? ing of our case, and the granting of the roliof to which, in our judgment, our clients aro entitled; and are further em? boldened to ask of you the favor to come to Charleston to hear our motion. This latter we do not claim as a right, bnt request for tho reasons given above, which wo think sufficient to justify us. If you will consent to hear us in Charleston, pleaso inform us of the earliest timo which will suit you, and wo will give notice to the Mayor and others concerned of the time and place. Hoping for your favorable and early reply, we remain, very respectfully, your obeaients servants, (Signed) LESESNE & MILES. A sentimental editor says: "It is com? fortable to know that one eye watches fondly for our ooming, and looks brighter when we come." A contemporary is grieved to learn that his "brother of tho quill has a wife with ono eye." A Mississippi paper says that General Ames, when first appointed Governor of the State, spent most of his time play? ing billiards, but since he has been com? manding general he has devoted his time to playing h-avoc with the people.

Baader, if a member of thin "Grand Army of the Republics" enters your door, kick bim ont, and trent bim, bo bo officer O? privato, asa sneaking, prying, double faoed, treacherous, false-hearted, wlnte Uverwaopnndreh We mean to bo un? derstood in this matter. A moro detesta? ble set Of knaves never herded together for political and social villainy, than this so-called Grand Army of the Republic. They are political pimps, political panel thieve?, and are Worthy to play spy and informer to "oar friendly ally, the despot of Russia. " It was the Grand Army of the Republic that ordered the removal from a place he had long filled with faith? ful services to the Government, the man who married the daughter of that mur? dered lady, Mrs. Snrratt. And the other day, one Martin Ronchase, a clerk in the Fifth Auditor's office, at Washington, was removed by the order of this band of political thugs, because his wife dared to rent a room they thought they could spare from their very limited suite of apartments, toan ex-Confederate officer. Theso thugs stabbed Rend?ase in tho back, and under cover of darkness, for the scoundrels never work like manly highwaymen, in open daylight. Ronchase was removed, and did not kuow where the blow came from which lost him his place, till a week after he was dismissed. A negro was installed in this place made vaoant in tho Fifth Auditor's depart? ment. The Grand Army of tho Republic is simply a secret organization of thugs and informers, who work under cover of obscurity for the damnnblo party now cursing the oountry. If these things go on, free white men of tho United States, we shall all wake up oue of these days and fiud every varlet and knave who compose the rank and file of this Grand Army of tho Republic, standing over us with fixed bayonets, and liberty a corpse by the road side, mangled and torn ns by jacka lis. U. S. Grant, the ostensible President of the United States, is com? placently viewing the growing strength of the Grand Army of tho Republic; and when the time comes, that organization will show its claws. Have the Demo? cracy of the United States sold their po? litical birth-rights to the mongrels now in power? If they have not, it is high time to arouse and prepare for a conflict which mnst be victory or death. The year 1872 is to be thu most eventful which this country has ever passed through, or ever will. This republic either emerges from tho perils that now surround it, or it sinks beyond extrica? tion into one of the darkest despotisms which ever disgraced the earth. The Democracy alone can save it. They I must; they will.-New York Day Book, OUR CREDIT ABROAD-TUE ENGLISH COTTON BOND-HOLDERS.-The third re? port of the Committee of Cotton Bond? holders has been issued. It reviews the question of the position of these claims, and concludes as follows: Of one thing, however, your committee feel assured, no British Government or House of Commons will over, unless our claims have been pronounced by an im? partial tribunal to be invalid, sanction tho payment of any damages committed by the Alabama to American citizens, without setting off and deducting there? from, the value of the cotton crop hy? pothecated by a de facto government as security to British subjects for money advanced; especially as the United States Government has possessed itself of tho assets of the Confederate States, and ap? propriated them to its own use, and by an act of arbitrary power, and, contrary to every principle of international law, compelled the Southern States to repu? diate tho contract legitimately made with British subjects. Yoar committee cannot refrain from doing an act of jus? tice to the Southern States by emphati? cally expressing their conviction that but for tho express interdict of the Con? gress of the United States, where they are not represented, their Legislatures and rjooplo wonld have, and will, if per? mitted, honorably acknowledge and pay tho cotton loan, the forced repudiation of which constitutes ono of the chief grounds of complaint against the United States. Your committee with sorrow point out the heavy blow this repudiation, al? though forced, has had on tho credit of the .Southern States in Europe, and they may mention a fact in corroboration of tho cruel injury done them, viz: when tho Wilmington and Manchester Railway Company sent a very able agent to Eng? land to negotiate a small loan for that railway, and offered to the cotton loan bond-holders terms which wonld virtu? ally have been an exchango of X200, Wilmington mortgage bonds for ?100 cash and ?100 Confederate cotton bonds, ex tho over-duo interest, the negotiation entirely failed, not because the cotton bond-holdors doubted the seourity offer? ed, but they feared that when thoy had completed the transaction the United States Congreas would bavo compollcd tho Wilmington and Manchester Railway to repudiate it under pain of seizing the way, and thus have inflicted farther loss on those who had taken their bonds. Tho consequence has been that all pecu? niary assistance from England, to enable tho Southern Statos to develop their resources, has been virtually suspended." [Augusta Chronicle arid Sentinel.

John? son, alli,,estimable lawyer ofj Galena, was sentenced and thrust into prison for "disloyalty." at the.instance of K B. Washburne and J. B. Jones. At the close of thu war, Mr. Johnson brought a suit against these two scoundrels for false imprisonment. Washburne and his fellow-culprit put in a plea of justifica? tion, but finding that they were sure to be mulcted in heavy damages, threw themselves upon the mercy of Mr. John? son, and signed a paper confessing their guilt, from which the following is an ex? tract: "That the said pleas, heretofore sign? ed by thom in said case, and the matters and things therein set forth against said p uintiff, are untrue in substance and in fact. Aud the said defendants further confess the wrongful trespass and impri? sonment set forth in said declaration, and that tho said d?fendants are guilty in manner and form as therein stated and set forth, and said plaintiff has sus? tained great damage thereby, as is al? leged in said declaration; and said de? fendants farther confess that the said seizure and imprisonment was wrongful, unjustifiable, aud without cause; and that said plaintiff was innocent of tho violation of any law, or of doing any not inimical to tho Government of the United States; and that said plaintiff did no act, and uttered no expression, or exercised nuy influonco, to tho knowledge of said defendants, that was not in support of tho Government of tho United States, its Constitution, and its laws." Ono of tho scoundrels who signed himself a liar and a calumniating knave, is tho fellow who now represents this Government at Puris. If Washburne was not a wretch utterly destitute of shame, he would neyer dare to lift np his head in thc presence of respectable gentlemen again. To be sure, while at home, he was not generally given to the society of gentlemen, a fact which is be? fore this time patent to the Conrt of France. Grant has sent a murderer to Spain, a confessed liar to France, and several of his other foreign appointments havo smelt tho air of tho criminal cell. [New York Day Dook. THE CHIEF JUSTICE AND THE NEW AT roRNET-GENEKAii.-The New York World rotates tho following incident, which escaped our notice at the time it oc? curred: Attorney-General Hoar has forgotten tho lesson which Chief Justice Chase set for him iu March. The way of it was this: Hardly had Hoar prostituted the position which a Stanbery und an Evarts had virtuously and vigorously filled, be? fore it became his duty to appear in the Supremo Court of. tho United Statej, which were reduced to tho extremity of having him for their counsel. In tho progress of a speech by him, the venera? ble Justice Nelson inquired: "What is tho pago of the authority you are quot? ing, Mr. Attornoy-Geueral?" To which the man whom ex-General Grant gave a Cabinet place in exchange for a library, replied: "May it please the Court, I decline to be interrupted in my argu? ment" Whereupon the Chief Justice, assuming upon his younger shoulders tho affront directed at his associate, and incidentally reflecting upon the whole bench, brought tho Massachusetts attc r uey to his knees at once by saying: "Mr. Attorney-General, you will cease in your argument for the present. This Court, as you will learn when you have become used to its amenities, reserves the right to question at any time any of its coun? sellors on any point whatever. Your re? joinder to the question of my associate is inadmissible, and when you have apologized to tho Court for language which wo must say was never hoard hero before, you may proceed, but not until that is done." Whereupon the legal oully collapsed and meekly begged par Ion, which it pleased the Court to allow. Looking at Mr. Grant's special pleader's lemeanor in the Yerger argument on Tuesday, it is plain that tho Chief Jus tico must give him another humiliation ;o bring him to his proper plane. WHAT THE SOUTHERN STATES WOULD EAVE DONE.-The Cincinnati Enquirer mys Forney, who was at the "hub" Ju? bilee, "was so taken with the magnitude )f tho enterprise, that he unconsciously asked himself: 'What would the South 3rn States of this Union be to-day if, with all their nfiluence of soil and oli aoate, they had boon guided by men full )f the energy nnd conscience of the New England Puritans?' They would have acid tho negroes in slavery until they found it a losing institution, when they would have sold their slaves to some neighboring peoplo-then have betaken ;hemsolvos to unwonted expression of ndignation against the orime of human servitude, and against those who partici? pated in it-and then thoy would have na le war upon those to whom they had lold their slaves, and compelled the pur maser to liberate them. And, finally, .vould have put the recent slaves over ho recent masters as political superiors. That is what the Southern States would lave done had they boen guided by men nil of tho energy and oonsoienoe of the Now England Puritans.
