their attention from ttye usurpation*, ty

of nil the State officer* one thh-d, but
have created a mutliludo of offit-M, before
unknown And wholly utMH?ce*nnrr,
with extravagant salaries end petqnisite*.
for the express purpose of providing
for their hungry and worth lee* position*
here and" 'at the North. .For
former year* the moit Uluatrion* men
of the Slate, learned and profound <awyesw,
were willing to aeci^l a eewt on
the bench, with a salary of $3,000.?
Now, pa-eel of ignorant, low and
groveling men, carpet -bagger* and
scalawag*, hare been elected to the
bench, with salaries of four and Ave
thousand dollars] So it is with all the
other officer* of the States.
A batch cf County officer* have Wen
created, whose salaries will stnount to
two or three hundred thousand dollar*,
whose dulio* were formeilv performed
by gentieinen of intelligence and public
spirit, with rut compensation! These
office* are now filled bv the most ignorant
aud unprincipled tmn in the
community, who have declared them
selves traitors to their race and their
I country. The salaries of the public of*
Hews uf the Stat* end Counties, will
amount to six or t*r*n hundred thousand
dollar*! This is two or three
hundred thousand dollars mote than
the whole expense* of the Stale amcunt
ed to fn former years 1 Tbe expenses
of the Legislature, Petmsnliarv. and
Jails, (worthy associat iocs,) will cost
the State Ave or six hundred Thousand
more, Iftie free school system, for the
education of the negroes, will require
over one million of dollars anntmlly. to
put it in operation and keep ll up I?,
The police of the Sime, and the maintenance
of a negro force in mli G< noty,
provided fyr by law, will require
over a million of dollars I The pay of
jurors, the support of paupers, and
oilier incidental appropriations, will
| probably Cost the Stale five or .six htm
j drrd thousand dollars more?ma ki?C
an aggregate of four million* of dollars 1
This enormous sum Cannot Ire paid, and
should not he paid by the impoverished
people of Soiiili Carolina. It i* ten
times the taxation which we were ic
quired in pay, in our days of wealth
and prosperity !

stupid and unprincipled bogus L?gi-la

likewise been luibed by lire bill-hold

seemed so me woithy of notice in the

service was the laying on of hands,
conducted by four ministers, Mrs. liana

The charge by the Be*. Mrs. Hansford

gratified to find that Charleston is regaining
Iter old vantage ground in the
favorable opinion of the merchants of
our sister State. Yesterday was the
busiest day that our jobbing bouses
have bad this season, and we are witht

of the good* shipped were for

i* a moat planting fact, *nd it may be
taken a? a proof thai our old customers,
after having tried the great cities of the
North, have cotne to the conclusion that
Charleston is their best and Cheapest
market. Ws Are eonvinced that this
city can giee Southern merchants tat
ter teims, upon the whole, than they
can obtain in either Bal'inrtore or New

Victor Emmanuel recently had a narrow e#fspe
from death whilst following a ekerreuil
in a raonntain pass. Suddenly the king found
his progress impeded b^ a mass of rock which
appeared Impassable. Undeterred by its- formidable
aspect, Victor Emmanuel put his foot
on it, but the snow wilh which it was covered)
rested on a mass of ice, which his weight
gradually displaced. A shepherd a few yards
below him, perceiving the sportsman's iromi*
went danger, scrambled up the rock, and
caught him by the back of his shootiqg coat*
and thus saved his life from certain destnic*
lion. Ilis Majesty took off his hat to the poor
shepherd. and on the spot handed him 1,090
sendi. He has since then fettled a pension ott
