It io unfortunate foi tho South that,
at fi timo t?hen the reconstruction of its
fifiasjses tras required, the oO?txol of ita
State affairs should have, fallen into the
o hondo of mere political adventurers.
Tuero was a time when it was a sufficient
guarantee of a Southern State obligation
that it was backed by Southern men
of inflexible honor and conspicuous in?
tegrity. At present, there is scarcely
a State in the South whose debts have
this sort of baoking. For tbe last five
Kare, th?&?anoes of the several States
ye been controlled by men who have
acquired position through the political
vicissitudes consequent upon the war.
With no experience in statesmanship or
finance, and no record but that of ad?
venturers, these men have undertaken
to re-adjust the revenues and debts of
the States.
We know what we say when wo affirm
that the main object with these raw
financiers baa not been the good credit
of the .State, but the manipulation of
the finances so as to produce tho largest
possible gains out of speculation. Their
schemes have been, in most oases,
batched in Wall street banking bouses;
and the legislators, Governors, and offi?
cials have been paid tools for carrying
out the plans of shrewd bankers. The
main point aimed at was to produce the
widest possible fluctuations in the prices
of the State bonds, irrespective of the
interest of the State, the party to bo
"mnlked" being, the innocent public.
Most of the H tates have found it ne?
cessary to issue new obligations to pro?
vide for their over-due bonds or their
unpaid interest. These new issues have
in most cases been put out by secret
sale on the market, and in amounts
known only to the negotiator and the
clique. In anticipation of the issue, the
?mrti?s to the Beeret would sell ou time
argo amounts of tho State securities,
ana so soon as the now bonds had been
marketed, the fact would be announced,
with tho result of a heavy fall in the
market value of the obligations, afford?
ing the "ring" speculators au opportu?
nity for covering their previous largo
sales. In other instances, a legislativo
"ring" has authorized large issues of
bonds to railroad schemes for which
there wan no necessity arising out of the
commerce of tho Stato. Tb eso loans
bad the double speculative advantage of
involving large contracts for building
the roads and of yielding a profit on tho
manipulation of tho bond market, the
gaina on both operations falling into the
hands of the clique. lu other instances,
tho political speculators have sought
illicit gains through factitious expedi?
ents for stimulating the credit of the
State. Ia these cases, they would first
of all buy through New York capitalists
large amounts of the obligations, and
? then augment the taxes to retire unex?
pectedly a considerable amount of debt,
and, as a still further expedient, compel
certain corporations doing business with?
in the State to hold a considerable
amount of the State obligations, which
the corporations had to buy from tho
olique.
. To our certain knowledge, State of
fioials have contrived to make large pro?
fita directly through commissions paid
by the bankers negotiating loans for the
State. We know of instances where
finance officers have boldly proposed, in
letters to New York bankers, to give
large commissions on the salo of securi?
ties, provided the allowance should be
divided with them. And equally possi?
ble would it be to cite instances in which
a Governor or a Comptroller have deli?
berately involved the State in advances
upon secret issues of obligations, the
effect of which could only be to embar?
rass the finances and weaken the credit
of the Government. ?
We allude to this discreditable ma?
nagement of State finances nt the South
for no other purpose than to promote
public investigation, and to redeem the
credit of the .Southern Governments
from Aie faithless hands into which it
has fallen. A knowledge of these abuse?
ought to suffice for their overthrow and
for the banishment of political specula?
tors from publio position. There is but
one means of restoring the credit of the
Southern States, viz: the restoration of
unimpeachable Southern citizens of the
old standard to representative and official
positions. Men of wealth and ability
and character cannot afford to stand sul?
lenly by and witness the degradation of
their State by interlopers and adventur?
ers. They have an interest in their sec?
tion which the new element have not and
cannot have; and it becomes them to as?
sert thoir olaim to the actual government
of their States. When Southern honor
and statesmanship are again infused in Lu
the local governments, we shall witness
a vast and permanent improvement in
Southern credit, but not before.
[New York Daily Bulletin.
THE NEW ERA..-At a reoent meeting
of revenue reformers in New York city,
in which Democrats nod Republicans
participated, the Hon. James Brooks, a
Democratic member of Congress from
New York, and a member of tho Com?
mittee of Ways and Means, was called
out. We find the following brief report
of bis remarks: "Mr. Brooks thanked
them for tho compliment. If it bad
been earlier in the evening, and not for?
bidden to tell tales out of school, he
could tell tales of that Committee; but
he thought that after tho Ith of March
next, that Committee would consist of
new members. No ouo could form an
opinion of the immense influence exert?
ed by lobbyists on that Committee; bnt
a now ora was dawning in the West, and
ho thought it would spread all over the
.oantry in time."
During the earthquake last month an
oil well at South Olive, Ohio, threw up
afeet of tools tnat had been buried in it
for months.
A Springfield, Ohio, girl, dancod in
corsets, and early in the engagement,
ber corse it was carried out of the ball
room.
IMMIGRANTS TO SOUTHERN PORTS-The
St. Louis (Mo.) Democrat Hays:
It io stated that arrangements are being
mado for the establishment of a lino of
emigrant vessels between Den murk, Swe?
den and Norway, and* ono of tho South?
ern oities. The idea is an excellent ono.
The iniquitous system of exacting a two
dollars and a half per oapita tax upon
emigrants exists only iu New York, nnd
the authorities who have imposed it show
no disposition to remit it. The sooner,
then, that soma other port of entry is
discovered, tho better it will be for the
emigrant and tho country nt large. Of
all the accessions to our workirg force,
both as common laborers and skilled
workmen, the Swedes and Norwegians
are pronounced by employers to be the
best. The men are temperate, frugal
and industrious, and with their families
rapidly dcvelope into thrifty farms and
tidy villages tho country where their co?
lonies locate. It is particularly impor?
tant that these emigrants be well re?
ceived, that they may persuade their,
neighbors in tho fatherland to follow
them to the new country. The lines of
railroads loading from oach of the South?
ern oities now form numerous connec?
tions with tho West and North-west, and
make those ports as eusy of access as
New York or Boston.
It is to be hoped that this lino will soou
bo successfully established, and that
others connecting with Germany, France,
England and Ireland will quickly follow
in its wake.
Fortunes have been made in the emi?
grant transporting trude, which is moro
lucrative and less troublesome thou the
carrying of first-class -passengers, aud
other fortunes, if, is fair to presume, may
yet be mado out of it. Sufficient capital
embarked judiciously in the enterprise
would undoubtedly yield a largo per
cent, upon tho investment. The very
fnct that shippers would bo ablo to scud
emigrants $2.50 her head cheaper to
Southern ports than to New York would
give them in a short time the bulk of the
travel. This is a subject in which the
managers of the railroads leading Sonth
are particularly interested, and they, as
well as capitalists Sooth and West, would
do woll to agitate the matter.
ESTIMATE OP EXPENDITURES OP THE
UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT.-The Chief
Clerk of the Treasury has completed the
task of making up the annual estimate
of expenditures of the United States Go?
vernment, and reports to the Secretary
of the Treasury that the total for the
fiscal vear ending June 30, 1872, will be
6280,272.386, exclusive of estimated ba?
lance.
The estimates for the current fiscal
year were $298,51G.732, including ba?
lances, to meet which the sum of $272,
308,337 was appropriated by Congress, i
The War Department estimates, as
originally propared by the chiefs of bu?
reau, amounted to $37,775,435.72. Sec?
retary Belknap reduced the bureau esti?
mates to $29,383,998. The appropria?
tions of this Department for the current
year were $29,321,307.22, including the
Military Academy, for which $314,809
was appropriated. For the support of
the Bureau of Freedmen and Refugees,
refunding to States the amounts ex?
pended ic raising troops Seo,, the amount
ashed is $7,542,951. For fortifications
and works of military defence, and for
geographical surveys, tho amount asked
is $3.099,200; for rivorB and harbors,
$8,842,450; for public buildings and
grouuda in the District of Columbia,
$018,150.
The Navy Department asks for an ap?
propriation of $20,083,317.77. The
amount appropriated for ?he current year
is $19,250,290.29. An appropriation of
$1,344,494 is also asked for to meet a de?
ficiency.
The Pension Office asks for $20,000,000,
provided unexpended balances cnn bo
used. Otherwise, tho Bureau will re?
quire an appropriation of $30,000,000.
For tho Executive, Legislative and Ju?
dicial Departments, the amount asked
for is $22.848,951.84. Included iu this
io $575,520 for the Putout Office, and
$229,240 for the Department of Agricul?
ture.
All these estimates aro exclusive of un?
expended balances, and arc made in con?
formity with the law of July 12, 1870.
General Edmund Sob river, Inspector
of tho United States Military Acudemy
ut West Point, in his last annual report,
remarks upon the superficial education
acquired by the candidates for admission
to that institution. He says that, it is no
longer unusual to find candidates inject?
ed at West Point for deficiency in the
primary branches of a common school
education, in possession of diplomas
from reputable colleges, attesting their
proficiency in many kinds of knowledge.
Ile further says, that though the require?
ments for admission are not beyond tho
capacity of an ordinary pupil of tho com?
mon schools, yet it is doubtful whether
one-tenth of the candidates for admis?
sion to West Point could pass tho pre?
liminary examination without the one
year's preparatory study reqnired by law.
An Illinois clergyman, who bad been
routed out of bed at an unseasonable
hour to marry a young couple from tho
rural districts, beat tho would-be-bride?
groom about the room with a stick, as
soon an he discovered that the blunderer
had forgotten to prooure a license, and
subsequently the girl backed ont, saying
that she did not want such a fool.
TUE STATE LTJKATIC ASXXUM.-We
print an article (rom the Columbia PHOE?
NIX, to which a brief reference has al?
ready been made/ containing a statement
of facts in connection with thu terrible
uh ii HOS said to exist iu the management
of the State Lunatic Asylum-an insti?
tution in which the people have taken a
deep interest, and whose philanthropie
pnrposeb commend it to the care and re?
gard of the public? lb is uot doubted
that Dr. Ensor is doing tho best he can
with the material at bis command; hut
the brutal tyranny of tho negro Harris,
as described by the PHONIX, is au out?
rage upon decency and propriety.
Governor Scott seems inclined to sup?
port such measures as will increase the
efficiency of the institution and insure
the comfort and well-being of its in?
mates, and wo trust tho General Assem?
bly will require that the existing condi?
tion of affairs be thoroughly investigat?
ed, with the object of protecting the un?
fortunates who cannot care for them?
selves, and are, as it were, the wards of
the State. If the colored lunatics prefer
to have a colored keeper, we have no
right to object, but we must protest
ugainst the practice of submitting white
men nud white women to tho capricious I
insolence and constant ill-treatment of a!
cruel and malignant negro.
Harris is, we believe, the Secretary and i
Treasurer of the Asylum, as well as tho j
head atteudaut, and to keep him in a!
positition for which ho is, by nature und
temper, wholly unfit, is only to prove
that it is determined to make use of thc
helpless and tho ofllieted as a menus of
rewarding tho hangers-on of u political j
party. The mau Harris was appointed,
we presume, because ho is a negro radi- I
cal, and for that reason alone cun he be
rotuined,- Charleston News.
Tachygraphy is tho rather unprepos?
sessing name of a new system of short?
hand writing, which is bound to su
