COLUMBIA, S. C. Wednesday Morning. Joly 3, 1872. Tile World Veering Hound. Oar telegraphic despatches, yesterday, announced that the New York World had declared itself convinced that the nomi? nation or endorsement of Greeley and Brown, at Baltimore, was a foregone conolusion, and intimated that its oppo? sition would cease, whether it concluded to advocate their election or not. We have been at a IOBS to understand the motives of the World in its malignant attacks upon Mr. Greeley, and in its in? consistent political tone generally, since the action of the Cincinnati Convention. It ranks high among the ablest journals in the United States, and has been for years the acknowledged chief organ of the Democratic party. The South has had no more apparently sinoere and earnest friend, nor Radicalism a more determined foe, than this great journal. As for ourselves, we had learned to feel for it un admiration close akin to reverence. For crushing argument, keen satire, pithy humor, and graceful scho? larly style, it need yield the palm to none of the leading metropolitan jour aals. We had willingly attributed to it, too, until its late tergiversations, a sin? cere and unselfish patriotism. It is not pleasant to have this oonfidence shaken, ?nd wo were loth to think bad things of the World. Bat this is not the first time that the World hos offended, and at? tempted to stab its friends in the back. In the campaign of 1868, when every nerve should have been stretched by a true Democrat to do all in his power to eleot Seymour and Blair, the World de? serted its colors in the hottest of the conflict, and clamored for new leaders, when it waa evident that its revolt could only result in a panio among the already disheartened Democracy. The oourse of the World then was ?8 inexcusable as it is now. It could have done no possible good; it might have done great harm, and it was ex? plainable upon only one of two hypo? theses-tho paper had either been bought up the Rad?cula, or else for thc sorry satisfaction which weak minds ex? per ion co in being able to say, "I told you BO," it was willing to render dou? bly sure the defeat of that party oi which it pretended to be the organ. , ic the present instance, by the ntinosl stretch of charitable consideration, w< cannot account for the present or recen' tone of the paper npon any snppositioi creditable to its integrity. Some say i hos actually sold out to the Radicals, anc wo must confess that, in moments of irri tation and disgust, as we read its venom ous ar tides on Mr. Greeley, thissuspicioi would foroe itself npon oar own mind But this presupposes suoh a diab?lica spirit of hypocrisy and deceit, on tb part of the conductors of the World euch a depth both of intellectual an? moral debasement-that, in oalmer mo menta, we discard it as almost beyoni the bounds of possibility. Others sa; that the paper is laboring under a tem porary aberration of mind. There i evidence, truly, of an attack of Greeli phobia, but the method in tho World' madness canses ns to doubt the genuine ness of the disease. Neither of these supposition? are prc bable or satisfactory. We have a theor of our own whiob, to oar mind, fut Dishes the most rational solution of th matter; and, at the samo time, may t many appear the least discreditable t tho World. That paper has never had from th first any purpose or desire to sustain th Liberal Republicans. The object of il support of Schurz, Trumbull and Qret ley, in the inangaration and develor. ment of the Liberal movement np to th date of the Cincinnati Convention, we to or?ate a sohism in the Rep?blica party, through which the Democrac might be again restored to power. J has been false, shamelessly false, but nc to the Democratic party. Its intends victim was the Liberal Republican) The mistake the World made was in pr< suming that its s?beme of deceit cool be successfully practiced by the mass? of the Demooratio party or their organ The World over-reaoherjitself, and i endeavoring to take in the Liberal R publicans, was itself taken in. Th journal imagined that the rest of ti Demooratio party was playing tho san stealthy and treacherous part with itsel or perhaps we use too strong languag we will say the deceptive part. The fa is, that the great mass of in tell gent ai right-minded people eire very little f mere party, when it inferieres with tl accomplishment of a really patriot parp?se. The people were ripe f A change. In the Sooth, parti? larly, they were addi novar wa rerw What the World and. perhaps a few p litioians intended for a sham the poop took in earnest, and from first favorin which the World helped to teach them to do, have come to support heartily the Liberal movement. The TTorW sadly mistook the" temper of the times, and having now been convinced of its mis? take, we trust to see it throw aside all false pride of personal opinion and bat? tle manfully for the right, which is Horace Greeley. Let us have no stay at-home policy, Mr. World. Tlie man i who does not vote for Greeley in the eoming election cannot escape the re? sponsibility of helping to re-elect Graut. Starching for Unknown. Quantities. We hear that Treasurer Parker is busily applying himself to the study of Davies' Elementary Algebra. We pre? sumo he is endeavoring to find a sola tion to the intrioato financial problems j to which his figurative management of ) the Treasury Department bas giveu rise. Ho is trying a hopeless task. "Surd Radicals"-himself among the number will spring up to balk his progress in every equation. They are nasty things to deal with in mathematics no lena than in South Carolina-these (ab)aurd Radi cals. Being the square root of a minus j quantity, their value ia difficult to be ascertained, and when found, is not worth having. There ia no hope of eliminating them until we wipe off the slate and start with Horaoe Greeley us leading factor instead of Grant. We adviao the Treasurer to quit alge ! bra for the present, and try his baud at the simpler methods of arith meti?. We have a problem for him in the rule of three, which ho can solve with ease to himself and intense satisfaction to the people of "our beloved State." It is this: If the third of six be three, What will his share of the^ plunder bx? If he cannot work it, we will render as I sistauco cheerfully. We have a shrewd ! notion that we can fix the third term of the proportion with great accuracy, say at 6600,000 in 5-20 United States bonds, with the addition of roan teams, gold spangled bretts, costly mansions, and all the other property visible here. We will deduct, of coarse, the value of the limited supply of cotton laces and paper collars which it is said he had for sale on a back street in Charleston at the I time he was elevated to or into the Trea? sury. There were probably no assets from the rum shop in a Massachusetts village. ? Bot we prefer that the Trea? surer will state his owu case. HOBACJB ?BKELEY'S POSITION IN RE ; a Aim TO TUE DEMOCRATS.-The Hartford Times (Democratic) of Jane 26, has the following extract from a private letter to a gentleman in Connecticut. Though it was never intended for publication, the gentleman to whom it was addressed has deemed it of sufficient interest and i portanoe to [notify its publication: I have no possible olaim to Democrat? ic support, and never made any. The Democrats will, of conrse, be governed by a consideration of their own interest. It is nowise proper or probable that they should be influenced, in making their de I cisi?n by any consideration personal to myself, and if they could be, I do not j desire it, Hence I have said nothing to any Democrat unless he first addressed me, and even then I have gone no fur? ther than to say that, if I should be elected, I would treat all those who sup? ported me alike, not asking whether they liati been in the past Republicans or Democrats. Yours, HORAOE GREELEY. MR. EDITOR: A. notice appeared in the Union, of yesterday, purporting to be based upon a note received from a mem? ber of tho graduating law class of the South Carolina University, which claims "that the graduating law classof that in? stitution were not at all implicated, nor do they countenance, in any manner, the conduct of several of tho graduates on Saturday lust." Tho undersigned take occasion to state that neither the members of the law class, nor any other students, except ourselves, were in any? wise "implicated" in the matter referred to. Their "aountenanoe" was not I Bought at the time, nor is it now desired. We are willing and able to shoulder the responsibilities of oar own aotion. T. C. ROBERTSON, ! D. B. DARBY, T. H. FISBER.

The Hint Ridge Railroad.

Soott, us Direotors; Niles G. Parker, Edward B. Wesley and the Carolina National Bauk-Com? plaint for relief, account uud injunc? tion, &o. The said plaintiff, complaining on be? half of himself and all otber stockhold? ers of tho said Blue Ridge Railroad Company, who shall in duo time come in and contribute to the support of this action, alleges: I. That the plaintiff is the owner of a large Dumber of shares of the capital stock of the Blue Ridge Railroad Com? pany, a body corporate duly incorpo? rated by the laws of the said Stute, and a defendant herein. II. That the defendant, John J. Pat? terson, is the President, Thomas J. Steers, the Vice-President; and the de fendant, F. S. Jacobs, the Treasurer of the said company, and that the said John J. Patterson, Thomas J. Steers, F. S. Jaoobp, H. G. Worthington, C. D. Mel? ton, ^ George Waterman, Hardy Solo? mon.' J. W. Harrison, Andrew Simonds, J. AV. Magrath, John A. Wageuer, Geo. S.

Jacobs and Hardy Solomon, compose the Exe? cutive Committee of the said Board of Directors. III. That only a small portion of the road of said company has beeu con? structed, to wit: about ti tty miles, aud the company was, until assisted by the State as hereinafter mentioned, wholly insolvent, and is no iv still very much in? volved, having u largo outstanding in? debtedness. IV. That said company being in an insolvent condition an aforesaid, on tuc ICth day of September, A. D. 1868, the General Assembly of said State passed an Act entitled "An Act to authorize ad? ditional aid to the Blae Ridge Railroad Company in South Carolina,"and there? by provided that the State of South Ca? rolina should, and by its officers duly authorized, it did endorse the guarantee of said State upon ?4,000,000 of the ne? gotiable bonds of the said company, pledging the faith and the funds of the said State to the payment of the said bonds; which said hoads, to the afore said amount of $1,000,000, guaranteed as aforesaid, were duly issued to said railroad company. V. That the said hoads so issued and guaraateed as aforesaid, if honestly and judiciously managed and disposed of would have realized an amount of mone] sufficient to have paid the debts of th* said company, and to have oo'opleted iti road, but by reason of the incapacity dishonesty, peculations and fraaduleu practices of the officers of said company a very largs numbor of the said bondi were diverted from the purpose fo which they were guaraateed and issued aud were hypothecated for large sums o money to bankers io the oity of Nev York and others; that the proceeds o such booda as were sold, und the mono; derived from the pledge of others, a aforesaid, were almost wholly misap plied, a very small part thereof beioi used to pay the debts of said company and to defray the expenses of the con strnotiou of its road. VI. That ia oider to secure the rece very and destruction of the said 84,000, 000 of bonds thus' guaranteed by th said State aud misapplied as aforesaid tho General ?Ksembly of the State, aftei wards, to wit: on the 2d day of Marci: 1872, passed un Act entitled "Au Act t relievo the State of South Carolina of a liability for its guarauty of tho bonds < the Blue Ridge Railroad Company, b providing for the securing ann destrut tioa of tho same," whereby the Stat Treasurer was authorized and reqairet upon the surrender by the said cotnpau to tho Treasury of tho said bonds, t deliver to the President of the said cou puny, Treasury oertitioates of iudubtet ness (styled revenue bond eorip) to tl amount of $1,800,000; for the redem] tioa of which said certificates the fait und fuudi of the said State wei pledged, aud the earne were also mac receivable by tho officers of the said ?Sta for taxes aud otherwise, all of which wi by the said Act, refereoce being ther unto had, more particularly appear. VII. That nuder and ia pursuance < the provisions of the last mentioned Ac Niles G. Parker, the Treasurer of tl said State, as authorized and requin by the said Act, did, in the mooth ? March, 1872, execute, issue and deliv to defendant, John J. Patterson, as tl President of the said railroad compao certificates of indebtedness of the Stat (styled revenue bond scrip,) as afor said, for about the aggregate amount $1,797,000, for the use of the said ra road company, upon the surrender of i equivalent amount of the said guara teed bonds. VIII. That immediately upon the t ceipt by him of the said revenue hoi scrip, the said John J. Patterson, wi the knowledge, consent and connivan of the Executive Committee of the Boa of Directors of the said oompaoy, coi posed of the defendants aforesaid, pursuance of a conspiracy between t! said directors and others, pledged t said certificates of indebtedness, reveo bood sorip, to vari?os trastees in t State of South Carolina and Now Yoi to the amount of $1,157,000 of said cer? tificates, to wit: To the Carolina Na? tional Bank, a body corporate by tho laws of tbe United States, about 847,000, for a loan of $20,000; to the Cuutral Na? tional Bank about 860,000, for a loan of $30,000; to tbe defendant, Edward B. Wesley, of tho citv and ?tate of New York, about $1,005.000, for a loau of $343,000; and the remainder to persons unknown. IX. Tbat the moneys received by the said Executive Committee as aforesaid, in the bypotbecatiou of the said certifi? cates as aforesaid, amounting in all to about tho sum of 8410,000, have been fraudulently misapplied by the said com? mittee-tho greater part thereof to their own use or the private uso of their indi? vidual members, uud to other illegal pur? poses. X. That upou the maturing of the ob? ligation to the Raid Central National Bank, for whiob $GO,000 of said certifi? cates bad been hypothecated us afore? said, said John J. Patterson, as Presi? dent of said company, had in bis bands fuuds of tho said company suilicieut to meet the same; but instead of so apply? ing the said funds, he, the bald Patter? son, fraudulently misapplied tbe same for the uso and benefit and at the re? quest of one Hiram U. Kimpton, and the defendant, Niles G. Parker, taking the acceptance of the said Hiram H. Kimpton, upon a bill of exchauge, en? dorsed by said Parker and others, for the fund so expended; whiob eaid bill of exchange, so accepted and endorsed, tbe said Patterson tbeu assigned to the said Central National Batik, leaving with the said bauk the said $60,000 in certificates as aforesaid, in pledge tn secure the pay? ment of the said acceptance. That said acoeptanne WUH not paid at maturity by the said Kimpton, but that said Niles G Parker paid the same, and thereupon received itu order upou the said bank from the said Patterson for the delivery to bim of the suid $60,000 in certificates as aforesaid, under which order the said Parker bas received and uow bolds eitbei tho whole or a largo portion of the said certificates. XI. That the balance of tbe said certificates of indebtedness received by the said defendant Patterson as afore' suid, and not hypothecated, were paid ont by the said Executive Committee fraudulently, corruptly, uud without any legal consideration thereupon to variouf persons, and among others to Hardy .Solomon, a Director of said Company, $10,000; to Niles G. Parker, $50.000; ti H. G. Worthington, also a Director $20,000; and that very large sums o money held by the suid President ant Executive Committee for tho use of sait Company, as well as other portions o the said certificates, have been distri buted to certain others of the Director and officers of the said company, f randa lently and without any legal considera tion thereupon. XII. Thut at the time of the transac tion bereiubefore set forth, several o the persons acting as Directors of tin said company, to-wit: Hardy Solomon H. G. Worthington aud E. S. Jacob uud others, of whom the said Solomoi and Jacobs were members of the Execu tive Committee, owned no stock of th said company, and were not legall; qualified to act us Directors of said com pony. XIII.
