?iv- ? * Til K HY J. A. SELBT DAII? "Let our Just Censure rOLUMBlA ? C. FRIDAY MORNrNtti FEBRUARY 3. 1871 AHnud tae True Event." VOL. VI-NO. 272. OooTJMBiA, S. G., January 81, 1871. Editor of the Phoenix-8m: As tho au? thor of the article, in the Lexington Dis? patch, of the 25th instant, signed "One of the People," I ask for 8pnce in your oolumns to reply to the rejoinder of Dr. E. 8. J. Hayes, published in your issue of tho 28th instant. I cheerfully admit that I have unin? tentionally misrepresented Dr. Hayes in the positiou that the Constitution pro? vided for tho election of County Audi? tors and Treasurers, aud to thal extent placed bim in a wrong position before the public. I made tho statement from memory, and confounded it vi th th?4 constitution ni provision for electing Justices of the Peace and Const ables, ni disclaim any design or intention what? ever of misrepresenting him, which, nry. second letter to the Dispatch, writtdn t?o day previous to the publication of vt ne Doctor's diatribe, will sufficiently^E?y.o.' This grave Senator attributes myjBrroV] to "lamentable ignorance" in olio' senV tenoe, and to "a concatenation^jbf. fl?-; liberate and malioious misrcp^escnta; tions" in another. Tho Iogic0atfd, ;de-; duotions are omineutly worthy ?'df tipo' author. '. ?V . But while I am now satisfied thatvtho Constitution does not literally make pro? vision for the election of County Audi? tors and Treasurers, I om eqifally well satisfied that its spirit is altogether jin favor of the electiou of all officers of the Government by tho people; and that there does not, and cannot exist, a stronger reason for their election tiPday, than there did throe years ago, wh?nHhc Senator admits that ho favored their appointment. While it may bebrue, that "what may hovo been wisdom then, might bo folly now," it ia equtflly trut that what was folly then, may dos foll j now! .'} ' ?. j The Senator's eager desire, now so sud? denly manifested, to grant",overy righi which ho baa heretofore denied his cdn stituents, even to tho election of'.Cohnty Auditor and Troasurer, is hardly--ii: keeping with his bill no rv. , before thc Senate for the appointment pt additional Trial Justices, when the ol?ctiori'-of Jus? tices of tho Peace and Constables-(tin former an office for which TrialMustice; were substituted) so clearly.required bj the Constitution, has not been carried oui by the Legislature. If, then, tho Con? stitution docs not enjoin upon him tin election of County Auditors and Tren surers, why does ho provide a bill foi their election, and, at tho same time, in troduce another for the appointment o additional Trial Justices, which are'onb a swindle upou tho Constitution aud flu people? The grave and learned Sbnato: has another opportunity of answering this query iu Latin I In this counectiot I will say, that if his last display wo intended for the eye of the great massfo bin constituent?, he might as ivoll1i<tv< translated it. They, as well/cs y th "short-lived Congressman," who wa once needed to place him in the poutioi he now occupies, have never haipi rici and influential friends among tho arin tooracy^to procure them a collegium cdu cation. It was even considered-j?'critn to educate the great majorityJ of tin Senator's constituents, in 'those days and that ignorance still fostered by hie in tho Legislature of as late ii s GS, i now his most powerful means Of BUP. port. .' p That I let my "great light sl?ino in th Club House for the niiReruble'pittnuc'c c: eleven dollars per day," does not materia ly niter the points now ut issue. M presence iu the Club House subjecte mo to the abuse and vilification of tl: Senator's old friends generally, wh< with himself, g:\ve their votes iu the L gislature of '65 to Ux the odious featun of the black code on tho colored peop] of South Carolina, and, nt the sum time, taxed their bends and dogs ?1 f per annum to pay for such eminei services iu the cause of oppression-i attempting to muko a large majority < his present constituents pariahs and ou casts in the land of their birth. Tl: Senator ought to know that "the mise able pittance of eleven dollars per doy, paid me us a member of that Con ve tion, was in "bills receivable," aud th I never approved of either tho arnon or quality of tho pay. These bills were i sued by authority of tho Senator's b gas Legislutnro of '05, and were refuse I believe, by the said members, for tin valuable services-they preferring 85 p day in greenbacks! Ha ought to koo also, that these trashy bills they gave were selling in the market at the timo 70 per cent, below gold, and that t "eleven dollars" ho prates so large about was, iu reulity, only three doll: and thirty cents, when reduced to tho g( standard. No member of tho miserai Perry Johnson Convention or Legis ture, who received five dollars per di either in gold or in greenbacks for th invaluable services, ought to suv c word about tho pay of the Club Hoi Convention. But men will differ iu th tastes as woll as principle?. In my communication to the Dispat I said thot "tho body of which J Hayes ia a member has just drawn soi thing like 820.0?0 to pay themselves extraordinary services on a Christi: loaf of two weeks." This, he says, false iu every particular." Lot us * Dr. Hayes is a member of tho Logi ture, which "body" is the General seinbly. It adjourned on tho 22d Docember, to meet on tho Ctn of Ja nry, which it did, al night, counting fourteen days. There aro about 153 m bera to be paid, at SO per day. T amount, including Lieutenant-Goveri at 810 per day, 812,992 for fourteen d I nm told by un officer who knows, I there ure 135 attach?es to both Hou atan average cost of 8-1 per day; i for fourteen days, 87,500-total 820, Then the room rent of committees, < will, I think, show that "soinetbi more than 820,000 wno paid for recess. If I um not correct, I desii bo corrected; but let it not be said my statement was "fnlso in itWcry parti? cular," while it can be proved otherwise. And now tho Senator cnn quoto from Goldsmith onco m?re, while tho public will decido ichica is tho dog "that died." Now, .oiie word in reference to thc $5,OOO.fpjr three months-services of the "short-lived Congressman." I was elect? ed in .April;-?18G8, took; my scat in July, attended-tho. opeuing-of two called ses? sions ;?h' September and October, and closed .my term in. March following, drawing at tho rate of 85,000 per annum 'from tho "dato" of election. Is there nny .crime in that?. I presume that tho Se uiiio'r would "riot havo seriously objected to'?yen the shortness of tbo term or the length ai thc pay. I bold that it is bet? ter tb.- live n-Bhort time than not to live at.nlh-'Wbich the.Senator fully endorses, I think, .when ho says of himself "/ still 'ive. ' , It is a source of gratification to me to know tlfat I was at ono time tho choice "oi tho people for that position, without using-either whiskey or money to influ euco their opinion of my merits. To the latest moment of life, I shall esteem it an honor ito havo been a member of tho Club Honso Convention and of Con? gress, to aid in giving my native Stato a'free. Constitution and unite again upon terms of freedom and political equality thc fragments of a bleeding, Bullering country. My friends said that I could bo re? nominated for a certain amount, which they oven offered to pivy, but I unhesitat? ingly refused to entertain tho proposi? tion or. accept tho nomination upon such condition^. Believing then, as 1 do noir, that ho ?who buys a vote will 3ell ouo, I preferred to bo a "fihort lived Congress? man" to being a longer lived one, ut Ibo sacrifice of principle in corrupting my constituents and degrading myself. If I had scoured the nomination I might pos sibly havo beeu elected by something liku B minority of 3,500 votes, even if I liad failed to secure the Sei tor's suf? frage. This might bave constituted the honor vi a longer lived Congressman, llllt who would not prefer to che curlier? iud even to bo taunted for being dead? [f "grace" fails the Senator iu the fur ther prosecution of his great work, ho ?viii doubtless know where to find a sub ditute that never fails. Very respect? fully yours, &c., SIMEON CORBET.
