colwma; S. o.j Thursday Morning. August 27,1874. j The niranlcj ?nd Coat of Raoe Iuue to tne Black People. The Union-Herald is exerting all its powers of ecissors and pen to arouse the feeling of raoe in the breasts of the colored people of this country. The same cue is followed in other parts cf tfcs State. Wallace, in the upper country, and Patterson, on the ooaat, uppeaUo. tb^rftpe..jrejajlioe?? tho ono pointing his,,bony finger to the virtues whioh reside in the "carl ridge-box," the other frantically warn i ng them "to be on their guard and be ready." The same thing oropa out in ether quarters, and the lesser lights and subordinate rascals eoho vtUe ory of violenoe, and teaoh the negroes what power there is in Laoifer matches and the charm? of mnrdering men, wo mdu and children indiscriminately. The journal alluded to spreads before its readers, every morning, the rakings of this vile and violent stuff, whioh ap? pear in ill informed distant Radical newspapers, the reproduction, with additions and odious comments, of the suborned Southern Radical proas. This press ia mainly supported by carpet? bag governments, out of the earnings of the honest people. Thus tho peo? ple are rosily paying fur this preoione hash of horrors, whioh is served up every morning, out of their own pookets. We are told, foorsoth, that the "struggle between the .Republican and Demoorutio parties in the South ib one essentially between the two races." It is no suoh thing, and least of all in this State. It may oome, however, if those who have an immediate and self? ish interest in having it take this shape continue to court it so assidu? ously. It may even roach Sooth Caro? lina. Let the uegro oonsider what he would gain by it. If be could see an inoh beyond his nose, he would see his doom in it. We turn away with shuddering from the consequences of ouch a contest. In this State, of course, he is numerically in the ascendant; but euppoae such a struggle inaugurated, how long does he think he could hold the ascendancy? Grant, for argu? ment's sake, that he might be success? ful. What gosd would his success do him, if he maintained it? He would be cheated out of its practical fruits? yes, cheated to* death?by his Radical advisers. He is asked , now to engage in this foolish strife by Patterson, Wallace and tho Union-Herald. Does he know for what? The objects are to secure a new lease of power to the "rotten Republican structure," mis? called Republican party, in this State. Wallace loves to stay in Congress and enjoy salary grabs. Patterson wants to sharpen the Blue Ridge axe, put money in his pockets land rule the 8'ate as a dependenoy of a Pennsylva? nia ring. He and the Union-Herald champion Chamberlain for Governor? the man who, while law officer of the State, was at the samo time the lead? ing member of the Board which on ihorized the issue of the fraudulent bonds. Ho. is, the attorney of the bond holders and the very man to posh their claims. Are- these the objects whioh the colored people wish to sub? serve? They are explicitly the objects which those who would lead them by the nose intend they shall further and subserve. This is the Dead Sea fruit which they are to gain by listening to delusive harangaes and sophistical editorials about the rights of their race. There is, no each question. Your rights are secure; no one chal? lenges them or wonld attack them. The real question you should consider, tho supreme effort yon should make, is for decent, honest, respectable go? vernment. This you oan never get, while yon follow these old political bucks and practiced manipulators of your votes. They will ride the race issue (if you play into their hand*) into office, into emoluments and steal? ings again. Thoy will fasten them? selves onoe more upon the vitals of the State and seize the burd earnings of its people as they are dropped into the Treasury. . These they will take to the fraudulent bond-holders and have a "divide." They will revel in the power whioh you havo given them, and, onoe in, your race may go to the devil for all they care, or back into the toil and sweat and oare which will produce another crop whioh they may again steal, and so on ad it\finitum. That's what race issue in South Carolina means. There's a fraudulent raoe iasne as well as a fraudulent bond issue. One is to be used to resnioitate and collect the other. Do you like the sobeme, colored people? Will you permit your color, after all that's been done to rnb it out, to enslave you to the masters of a bond-holders' ring? ...?? a b*?m( wit? ?teams* AavlM* Hurrah for Sam. Leet He was the roan who introduced and carried in the Mora! Convention, in spite of tbe knook-aowu arguments of the portly offlou-bolding Ourdozo, resolutions whiob expressed urjiilteralla opposi? tion (o "any member of the present or preceding Statu Administration being elected Governor of tho State;" which said that it is "utterly useless to expeot a tru-i reform from thoRo who huve been recognized as leaders in tbe past." That is tho only manly Repub? lican voioe wbioh has been beard fur reform yet. There is moro in those sentences than in a cart load of Union Heralds or Moses aud Chamberlain speeohes and addresses. We uro pleased to see that Leo keeps bis beaver np and holds his bmuor aloft. He bas procured the passage of a set oT excellent resolutions in the township of Sumter, (the publication of wbioh, by-the-way, was deolined by the Union-Herald.) They go to the root of the matter. Here is a standard borne by one of their raoe, to whiob tbe co? lored people may rally, and hero is the resolution whiob may yet be tbe death of both Chamberlain and Moses aud tho whole State House ring of office? holders: "Resolved, That we are positively opposed, as a part of tbe Republican party of this State, to the nominatiou for Governor of this State, either of tbe following persons, who have been spoken of as candidates before tbe Re? publican State Convention, viz: Frank? lin J. Moses, Jr., Daniel H. Chamber? lain, Robert K. Scott, J. L. Neagle, or any other of those known to be mem? bers of the 'State House ring;' and that we do hereby instruot tbe dele? gates from this meeting to oust their votes in tho County Convention only for those who are openly opposed te tbe above named persons, and who will pledge themselves to use their votes and mfluenoe ta defeat the nomi? nation of either of said person?, from first to last." Pat Oat of Sight. The Union-Herald, in its selections from the Northern press, made in order to show what it thinks of South Carolina, ib careful to walk round aud keep at a retpeotable distance from tbe columns of the New York Times. For awbile, tbe Times was its Boanerges. But now it lets the thuu derer severely alone. It bas struck Obamberlain bald, iu sayiug in one isBno, that "some better Republican candidate than has yet appeared must oome to the surface of South Carolina politics." Iu another, it calls for "a candidate who3e election honest Con? servatives and honest Republicans oau unite on." This is heavy, heavy in? deed. It is not good for the whole? some of the U.-H. Imagiuo the clique who muke up its company poudcriug in conclave over these dauiagiug de? mands, aud concluding us the best they can do under tho circumstances, not to let them see tho light in the oolnmns of the virtuous aud blessed Chamberlain organ.

Received as information and ordered published: Office City Tkeasobbr. Columbia, 8. O, Aup. 24, 1874. To the Honorable Mayor and Alder? men City of Columbia?Gentlemen: I have the honor to present herewith a statement of the indebtedness of thu city of Columbia, on the 1st of Au? gust, 1874. The fuots whioh I now present for your consideration have been ascer? tained by a careful und laborious in? vestigation of nearly two months. In order to arrive at the interest due and unpaid upon the oity debt, I was com? pelled to paste, in the bond books pre? pared for that purpose, the coupons redeemed during the past two . "urs, and to compute upon each boud the amount of interest due uud uupaid from the date of the latest matured ooupon pasted in tho book to the 1st of July, 1874 Without inteuding to reflect upon any particular individual, it seems to me that the books of this office have been kept with a view to conceal, rather than to exhibit, the true condition of the city. The en? tire financial transactions of the city for several years have been kept in n siugle book, called, for short, a cash book, and a convenient system of oross entries enabled tbo book-keeper to ,-ibow a proper balance ut the close of each month. Ou the the 1st of August, 1874. tho following hoods were outstauding: G per cent, bonds.$167,900 7 per cent, bonds. 390,700 Total.?553,000 Prior to the fiscal year 1873, no spe? cific tux was levied to pay interest upon the oity debt. In 1873, there was levied for that' purpose, upon the taxable property of the city, u tnx of eight mills, und in 1874 a tax of seven mills; total, fifteen ruilU. There was realized from said levies of fifteen mills, from January. 1873. to tbo 1st of August, 1874, 300,556.34 The amount of coupons redeemed during said period was ?44,450.75. From which it appears that the eum of $16,105.59 was diverted from the spe? cial interest fund to pay current ex? penses. The annual interest on the city bonds amounts to $37,423, or $74,846 for the years 1873 and 1874. Now, the interest tax for said yearn realized only $6J,556 34; so that, if the entire pro? ceeds thereof bad boon properly ap? plied to tbo redemption oi the cou? pons, und if there bad been no past due coupons outstanding January 1, 1873, said levies would still be insuffi? cient to pay tho actual interest by S14.289.6G. Ou tho contrary, how? ever, there was a largo amount of ma? tured coupons unpaid January 1, 1873, and 616,105.59 of special interest tux was misapplied; so thut there is now outstanding past due coupons to the amount of $53,281.50. The entire debt of the city, as fur as I havo been able to ascertain, is us fol? lows: JJonds.$553,600 00 Interest ou above, due und unpaid. 53.2S1 50 Bills paynblo.

If the person named is tho same as Capt. Wm. Low man, I must say, that it is not the first time he appealed to the better feelings of the undersigned, and succeeded, as the following copy of uu unpaid note will show: "Oeu W. B. Nash will you please to let mo have 4 $ dollars worth of goods this Evouiug and I will pay ou uext Saturday if I livo. Give a noto so that I can get it iu goods. . Remain, "Caitn WM. LOWMAN." Now, sir, a being iu tbe shape of a man, to use tho words "if I live," as an endorsement on a promise, aud then disregard it, canned be considered a truthful member of society. I might say of him, what is said of a certain class of people, that this noto uud pro? mise looked a white lamb, but proved only to bo u black sheop. "A flush of shame" aud *'u fouling of honor" should cover ouco and for? ever him who willingly lends himself to mislead tho public, and become a tool of designing and crafty men. Tho statements over his signature were ono and all a tissue of falsehoods. W. B. NASH.

The Southbbn Fiuhout Lines.?A lively competition baa been carried on between tbe Southern railroad and steam water lines for freight from Bal? timore destined for points at tbe South. On the 12th of Hay, 1873, a oom pact was entered into, ander which a uniform tariff of rates was agreed upon by all the oompauies. Tbe pre? sent summer, however, the compact was broken by some of the lines, and an opeu war was waged in consequenoe, freights being oairied by all the lines ut very low figures. On the 21st of lust July, u convention, composed of representatives of all the lines inte? rested, was held at Augusta, Ga., to settle tbe trouble, when it was deter? mined that the agent of any line sign? ing tbe compact who is guilty of "out- - tiug under" the rateB, eball be dis? charged, and none of the other lineB will employ him.
