WASHINGTON, February 22.-The con? dition of Sooth Oarolina is deplorable. In the days of secession it was the greatest offender. In the days of re? construction it is tho greatest sufferer. The government of the State was for? merly in the hands of en aristocracy. They were a body of men jealoua, wil? ful, dogmatic, but high-toned and honorable. The roll if its representa? tives in Congres i for near three qaartera of a century, the names of its oivio and military heroes in the war of the revolu? tion, shine with a lastre that is undim? med by comparison with the mon of any other State. True to the souvenirs of its former history, it precipitated the slaveholders' rebellion, and led its hosts to theil doom. It songht in ita passion a bloody arbitrament on tho field of battle, and o bloody arbitrament it bas had. With GO,(JUO voters, it put 70,000 soldiers in the field. The end came, and Sooth Oarolina was black with desolation. The smoke and the fire of civil wai ascended from every hoosehold, and the stain of blood was on the garments ol every survivor. Its yoong men had swiftly gone down to bloody graveB till the dead outnumbered the living. Tin means of snpport were swept away as by fire and whirlwind. Havoc, and spoil, and ruin were its only gain. This it where the end of tho rebellion left Saith Carolina. What has been it? oouditiou since? What is its condition now? The population of the State is some thing over 400,000 blacks, mid some thing under 300,000 whites. Tn o res ni of the war bus mado ? yet greater dis proportion in the comparative number.1 of the voting population. These ar? estimated to be in 'the proportion o 10,000 white to 60.000 black voters, tin aggregate, being over 100,000. But ii ibo Legislature, out u>f 121 members diere are but thirteen representatives o the white minority. Tho rest of tb? mscmbly is black, with the exceptio] .hat here iiud there is a white repre tentative of a black constituency. Thor tro enough of these, along with a fev ntoliigcnt colored, people, to lead tb great muss of ignorance aud barbarian if which tho main body is composed. Without going into details, it i mough to say thut tho men who lcm iud manage tho Legislature und tb Slate Government aro thieves and mis treen ts. The great body of tho Logia attire are the ignorant uud corrupt in trutnents with which thu leaders work ind thoigh tho individuals composin his mass uro bought and sold like cattl u th? market, their venality in som ?asea is relieved of much of its crimine ity by reason of the denseness of thei gnoraoce. Numbers of the blacks wh ?coupy seats in the Legislature regar homuelves only in the light of en iloyees of the Governmont. Their pn a six dollars u day for the session, an peciul pay for their separate votos o very mensuro in which there is mono; Phone votes are bought and sold withot ven a pretence of hiding the flagitioi ransaotion. The negro himself is hurt y oouscioiid of criminality whilo I oakes his bargain. Ho owns his muli Ie sella it. He owns his chicken. E ells it. He considers his voto just i ouch a part of his personal property t tis mule and his chicken. Why shou te not sell it also? Ho does ?oil it, at ie naively wonders that anybody shou omplain. Of oourse, the scale of pay varier. 3 just according to each man's intel ;ence and rapacity. A few hundn lollara in special gratuities is enough at'ufy the demands of u plantation n ;ro. Others get more, and more, ai a oro. Ouo of the smarter sort w censed, the other day, on the floor he House, by a colleague, with th? laving $12,000 of State bonds in 1 tocket, corruptly obtained. And t barge was not denied. Bat the evidence of gross and univ? al corruption is palpable in the w verybody Jives who ha? anything to nth the Government. Thereisahapr. .o-lucky air among thom nil. If a bia et? into the Legislature, that is enou< Ie works no more. He has no oci ion. He has money enough. It is t ame with the occupants of tho exe? ive offices. AU are sleek and fut w heir ill-gotten gains. They are li Crates who have captured a richly-lad hip. They riot in the plunder, cari iOt ut all for, nor even thinking of, 1 wners. But the irrefrugible evidence of gig: io theft und corruption stuods liki monument in the vast in?rense of .tate debt, an increase for which thor othing to show. The State may earohod in vain to find where the moi as gono. It is in no publio work. } in no schemes of publio improverne t has simply been stolen. It has gi oto the pockets of the highway robb tho compose the legislative and xecutivo government of tho Stute, told tho stupendous sums! In 1H65, londed debt, according to the repor he Congress Committee, who have la o turned from their investigations, wai ouod numbers, $5,058.000. In 18Gf /aa $6.454,000. On the 20th of Deo ier, 1871, it had risen to the enorm ggregato of $15,768,000. It was ven oortain that this sam covered rholo liabilities of the State. So m raud and complicity iu oorrnpt prnol ty the State offioials had been d oped, so mueh chicanery had been arthcd,so much wilful concealment pparent ignorance of the amount ol obberies and isaacs of the Stute b< iras manifested, that there wa t no aiuty that oven the frightful uggre milich was established would not bc dented when all tho plundering omo to light. But whether it bc moro or no) lave hero an addition to tho Statu ince tho war of nour Si 1,000,000. hin sn m has been, million by mil dollar by dollar, deliberately stolen by the vill?jua who have had possession of the State since that period, with the ex oeption of fiooh moderate sams as were necessitated by the measures of recbn atrnotioD. The methods of robbery have been too various and universal to be enumerated in an exposition so general as this. Suf? fice it to say, that they have involved everybody of any account who belongs to the majority. It is a trembling morass of corruption that shakes ander the tread of the investigation. There is no obanoe to stop or punish the flagrant crimes that have been oommitted, be? cause everybody, outside of a mero handful of representatives of tho tax? payers, is implicated. Whatever vil? lainy is exposed, or whatever investiga? tion is threatened, silence is at once restored by threatening the threatener with an examination and exposure oi their own criminality. It is simply o baud of robbers threatening to tell OD one another. Was thefo ever such 9 burlesque on froe government? The State is mired, and there seems to be no standing ground for an effort at extrication. And yet it must bo extri cated, or govorcment is a failure. Ac has been already said, there are but thirteen representatives out of 124 mern bers of the Legislature who are regard ed ns representatives of tho tax-payers ol the Stato. Of these, eight come fron two upper Counties adjoining Georgia These representatives are tired of a hopo less struggle against the thieves who have plunged the Stute in bankruptcy, ant threaten general confiscation. Thest two Counties have petitioned to be se off to Georgia. As their excision wonk just itbout extinguish the trifling mino rity of tho Legislature, and leavo it ? unit in its corruptions', it is supposed th mujoiity will grunt tho prayer. So tba thu lust remnant of the holding groom of tho tux-payers seems lo bo on thi point of disappearing. It is thus that 300,000 white people more or less, composing the intelligent aud property-holders of the State, an put under tho heel of 400,000 paupe blacks, fresh from a stato of slavery am ignorance most dense. Guided by un principled adventurers from other States who make use of theso freedmen as thei agents for the most nefarious acts whicl were ever committed uuder tho shelte of repnblicau forms of government this blind and unintelligent mass is pre cipituted upon tho intelligence um wealth of the State till they ure burie ?ut of Hight. It is sometimes asked why thu whit people of tho State do not endeavor t influence the blacks by kind treat moe. ?iud persuasion as to their truo interest) The answer is, that thu jealousy of th black of his old master is profound, un yielding aud universal. Where th kindest personal relations prevail, whe/ the freedmen remain on tho old plant: tions, and work the land on shares i contentment aud harmony with the pr< prietors, tbe testimony is that, BO fur 1 roting is concerned, the old master utterly without influence. Ile cann< obtain a vote orthepromi.se of a vote. I this matter, the black will liston only l the unprincipled adventurer who ridi through tho country claiming to be ot )1 those who gave freedom to the slave ?ouscious of their present liberty, tl freedman's dread of its possible lo makes him the most suspicious and ?j prob ern si ve of mortals. lu poverty UL iisknesa, in trials and troubles, ho r ?orts to his old master, and seeks his a >nd counsel with a childlike coufideuc But in voting, he is steeled to his nd vic ind will die before ho will tnko it.

Admit that she was a hot-bed of sedition. Admit that she was the cauldron in whioh was conducted the venom that poisoned a nation. Admitany thing and everything. Is there to be no expiation?
