COLUMBIA, S. C. Friday fitominsf, October 7,187C. General Connor'? Financial Bpcccn Slr. Chamberlain'? Figures. The speech of General James Connor at Camden on the nuances of the pre? sent State administration, and his re? view of Mr. Chamberlain's errors and omissions and misrepresentations, is one of the most telling arguments yet made in behalf of "Reform. It is an argu? ment that addresses itself to the solid men of the State, to the business men o! tho State, to the 'tax-payer and the pro? perty-holder, and if this does not arrest the attention of those disposed to bo apathetic os respects their political du? ties, we do not know what would arouse them from their lamentable indifference. Well doos General Connor say, and we quote his words with all possible em? phasis: "With this, I close my review of the financial administration of Governor Scott. I have examined these accounts carefully, and have etated, or havo en? deavored to state, thc results fairly. I have mado no statement that is not sus? tained by tho official documents. If there is error, it is, therefore, suscepti? ble of easy aud immediate correction. "So far from tho accounts justifying the encomiums that have been paid to the wisdom and economy of tho Scott admiuistration, they arc mutely eloquent of official ignorance and extravagance, of wasteful expenditure, of criminal negligence, if not flagrant corruption. Large sums paid for trifling services, debts paid and the proper credits not given, aud a half million of dollars twice paid for the same debt. "To tho property-holders and tax-pay? ers, I commend a oareful study and in? vestigation of these accounts. To them the subject ia one of vital importance. Unfortunately the inclination of property - holders and business men is to avoid poli? tics, and all political questions. They rather pride themselves upon being ut? terly indifferent to politics, and one of the objects I bave had in making this exam? ination of State expenditures is to show to them tho price which they pay for that indiff?rence. If they refuse to make their weight feil in important political is? sues, if (he intelligence, capital and char? acter of the State s?tun all connection with politics, political control of the State will inevitably fall into the hands of those who are ignorant or corrupt. All will suffer from ill government. Every interest icill feel it, but the weight of the burden will fall upon property." Let us now briefly review General Connor's address, and point oat some of the pointu that he makes and sustains. General Connor commences by asking, is the State prospering? Is she spend? ing more than she makes? For this is the test. He declares, first, that taxation has increased more than threefold since Governor Scott assumed control of the State. He shows that for the ten years ending 1859, the average annual taxation was 8131,899, whilst in 1869 it wa3 over $1,590,000, more thou three times as much. As to appropriations, he shows that for the years 1858 and 1859 tho total amounted to $1,551,007.78, whilst in ?S68 and 18G9 it rose to $3,131,469.00 fen excess of $1,879,861.22. In other words, tho appropriations were more than double in 1S63 and 1869 over those of 1S5S and 1859. General Connor next gives a compara? tive view of the appropriations for the years 1858 and 1868, and for 1859 and 1S69, to Bhow more clearly tho sources of expenditures. The exhibit shows an excess of 1868 over 1858 of $1,175, 422.22, and au excess of 1869 over 1859 of $701,139. General Connor next pro? ceeds to consider the statements mado by Mr. Chamberlain in a speech made by bim at Chester, and which has since beeu circulated by the radical party as a campaign dooumeut. General C. first assumes that Mr. Chamberlain's figures are correct, and upon that basis proves that tho expenses of the prosent admi? nistration have been extravagant aud largely in excess of any previous admi? nistration. But this is not all. General Connor conclusively proves that Mr. Chamber? lain's figures aro grossly inaccurate. Ou thia point tho details aro so numerous that wo must refer our readers to Gene? ral Connor's speech, which wo prosumo will be freely circulated by the Executive Committee of the Reform Party. Enough for us to say, that appealing to records and stating tho matter clearly and fairly, Geueral Connor shows that Mr. Cham? berlain's exhibit is full of numerous aud serious mis-statements, and shows fur? ther, that tho accounts of tho State with Mr. Kimpton aro suggestivo of looseness nud gross frauds. General Connor's speech goes to' show that tho State is in ruinous hands; causes to stand out iu bold relief tho sublimo impudence of tho assertion that tho administration of Govcrudr Scott has becu "economical, wiso anti honost." . On Wednesday night of last week, a colored mau named Edgar Bishop, was fatally stabbed iu this town by another colored mau, named Charles . Robinson. [Sumter News. .Thc ?Oreen Line" Eicnrilon to Olnctn . natl. This important, swift and direct freight line has been in successful opera? tion for several months, but the mana? gers, in conjunction with the merchants of the "Quoo? City of tho Weat," deemed it important that the Southern merchant? and manufacturers should "pass" over it, in order to obtain posi? tivo evidenco of its advantages, and at the samo time, obtain a brief glimpse of tho principal cities of the great West, through which the "green lino" passes. Invitations were extended and passes issued to tho business men of Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, South and North Carolina. About ?OO persons availed themselves of tho liberal proposition, and, as requested, "put in au appear? ance" nt Atlanta, Georgia-tho "Gato City"-on Tuesday, the 27th ult., where a special train awaited, to speed them along. This train was a curiosity within itself-lodging aud refreshments were furnished on board. Wines and other liquids dispensed with a liberal hand from tho refreshment saloon; meals sup? plied by tho road-sido inns, and com? fortable lodgings obtainod on board. The first halt wa? at Mnrfreesboro, Tenn., where a visit was paid to tho fair grounds and an hour or two spent in? specting the fine stock on exhibition. A committee from Nashville met the ex? cursionists a few miles from that city and escorted them to tho Maxwell House, where a splendid dinner was served. A oommitteo from Louisville, accompanied by another refreshment car, met the party aud escorted them to Kentucky's famed city, and au invitatiou for a few hours' halt was extended; but owing to different arrangements having been made, thc polite invitation could not be accepted. The Cincinnati Committee here made thoir appearance, aud extend? ed the freedom of tho city to tho ex? cursionists. A run of about four hours, over tho "Short Line," as it is called, landed tho party at the Covington depot, where, after a formal welcome, accompa? nied by kindly greetiugs, tho entire party eutered the vehicles, which had beeu provided, and wore rapidly whirled to the headquarters of thc committee, in the Burnett House. Flags wero floating in every direction, banners bearing in? scriptions, spanned tho streets-the most conspicuous being "The merchants of Cincinnati welcome tho merchants of tho South." The next morning, there was a parade of the magnificent steam fire department of the city, ench steamer drawn by four substantial, well-kept horses. An im? mense crowd was in attendance. At a given signal, the machines were fired up, and ia less than four minutes, fourteen huge streams were forced into the air, fully fifty .feet above tho tops of the three-story buildings in the neighbor? hood. At 1 o'clock, the guests-ocoupying about oighty carriages-and headed by a band o? music, were escorted through tho suburbs of the city-Eden Park, Avondale aud Clifton. A halt was or? dered at the elegant residence of Robert Mitchell, Esq., where a bountiful lunch had beeu provided, of which all partook, and which was washed down with an am? ple supply of sparkling wiues of the choicest Cincinnati vintage. There was an abundance of delicacies as well as substantials, and the entire party were well served under the immediate direc? tion of Mrs. Mitchell, the accomplished hostess of the mansion. After leaving Avondale tho party drove over to Clif? ton, nud were entertained at tho palatial residen :o of Wm. Resor in thc same ele? gant and bountiful style. An unexpected visit was paid to the charming residence of George H. Pendleton, Esq.-who ex? pressed himself highly gratified at rueet iug so many of his Southern friends. Tho conservatory and grounds aro mag? nificently laid out and tastefully arrang? ed, aud attracted universal admiration. After a brief time, very pleasantly spent iu pleasures of tho table, aud in looking about the grounds and at tho rave ex? otics of the place, all were driven back to tho oity. lu the evening, a magnificent banquet was furnished, iu Pike's elegant Music Hall. Tho stage aud parquette entirely filled with tables extending from ono end to the other, ladened with tho finest ser? vice, bristling with red napkins, fortified with fruits and floral sweets from the hot-house, brilliant pyramids, castellated cakes, ornamental temples and condi? ments without eud. Tho galleries were filled with ladies and gentlemen. Tho fino baud from Newport Barracks dis? coursed beautiful music. Tho banquet was "no ordinary jollificatiou, no moro bout of sensuality, but a philosophic aud rational commiugliug of mind with a pleasant aud succulout addition of matter, a blending of soul and substance,typified bythouuiou of Cupid and Psyche,a com? pound of strange ingredients, in which a largo infusion of what aro called ani? mal spirits, coalesced with an abundance of distilled ambrosia."

Afk-r everybody bad boen filled to re? pletion, nud many had begun to have mi.j-givings of abdominal difficulties, the cloth was figuratively removed, and the intellectual eutortaiumeut begun to be served up. The "Greon Linors" wove a hand? somely-contrived badge, which was ac? knowledged by conductors on tho street cars, aud was tho "open Sesame" to all tho publio buildings. Every citizeu ap? peared to think it bis especial duty to look after the visitors aud impart infor-/ matiou. During tho passage of the pro? cession through tho city and environs, tho ladies waved handkerchiefs, the gen? tlemen raised their hats and the little folks nearly shouted themselves hoarse Tho great exposition was in full blast, and the varied display of beautiful, use? ful and ingenious articles andrimplo ments afforded a vast amount of enter? tainment. ?

THE Secretary of thc Executive Committee or the Union Reform Party exceedingly regrets to announce to the public, that tile efforts on thc part of thc Committee to secure fair play in the coming elcctiou, have ho u fruitlesa. Wc were confident, at ono time, that, our requests beiug so reaaonablc and fair, there would bo no objection; but there is evidently strenuous opposition to anv one of tho Reform Party being present with tho boxes from tho timo the polls open until the votes are counted out. Unless this arrange? ment ia made in some of the Counties, we aro credibly informed, by both Republicans and Reformers, that we will not get a fair count. It is evident, from the very fact that eomc of the Commiasionera refuao to couacnt to this arrangement, that they intend if necessary to op?ralo with the votes to onr loss. Near or quito ono million of dollars directly or indi? rectly are at atakc in thia contest; tho temp? tation ia too great, and no three men of any ouo party should be subjected toit. If a customer orders fifty pounds of sugar or coffee of his grocer, the grocer refuses to weigh it out becauso you arc present, it is al? most proof positive that ho inteuda to cheat yon if ho can, and just so wc regard thia vote counting. Tho Governor and Mr. Ransier are very pro? fuse in thoir expressions of a desire for tis to have fair play, nut when you come to rednco thia matter to aomethiug tangible and practi? cable, it is explained away so you can't find it. Some are told it is a matter they can't con? trol, it rests with tho Commissioners, and it would not do to cast any reflections upon them or their honesty, .fcc," Ac.
