We invite the attention of our readers ro
the communication of Joseph Daniel Pope,
iiitfiiV issue*.->
In publishing our statement we invited
correction, and we are very happy that our
distinguished senior and friend has given

statement and views.
We disclaim any idea of doing an injustice
to any one in the article alluded to, as
we had- no intention of event coloring: facts
too strongly.
The Reign or Terror.
In York, Spartanbtirg, Chaster, and perhaps
in Marion, Chesterfield, Laurens, NcwTjerry,
Fairfield aud Lancaster, (the other
counties mentioned in Grant's proclamation)
there hns been instituted au absolute reign
of terror.
In Spartanburg we are informed that the
jail is so full of ' so-called Ku. Klux that
many are camped outside under guard.
In York we are told that all the roads
leading to the Court House are- picketed by
soldiers, and any one attempting to pass ei
tiher way is arrestee^ ana in mauy inseauces
thrown into jail; and that in one- case where
a party had" gone to make an arrest at night,
they intruded upon the- privacy of young
ladies' chamber, and pulled the covering from
their bodies, pretending to search for their
victim.
We are further informed that*many persona
are leaving: their homes in order to
avoid these arrests, not that they feel themselves
guilty, but because they may be arrested
upon mere suspicion or idle accusation,
and put to great trouble tnd expense
to procure bail; and perhaps bj perjury be
convicted of the crime alleged and sent to
the; Penitentiary, all of which is not owiy
possible hut very probable,
' The question is not how can this he avoided.
for bucked as they are by the army of
the United States, there is no avoiding it.
The only thing left us is to avoid giving
cause for it. We are compelled to sit quiet
]y and submit to the infliction, it cannot
last always, and hence the more quiet we renain
the sooner the heavy hand will be
withdrawn. 'But do not let our submission
be one of slavish fear?onfv a bowing to the
inevitable, and one more of th^fhany curses
thrust upon us. /
In this county, fortunately for us, there
has been no instances/^f a Ku Klux raid,
ft nor of any combination to deprive a man of
IHl.-*1 'i I * ?- *' ? *
7*" any political or civil right, and hence we are
o far free from the curse of martial law.?
But a single instance may call i. down upon
tiff, and many of our most respected citizens !

wheu as innocent as the babe unborn.
"We therefore counsel moderation, rod oppose
anything like violence, in order that
the reign of terror may not reach us here
too.
How true seem those verses, written six
centuries ago, and how devoutly is the end
to be wished for :
'The world is very cvik
The times arc waxing lute,
. Be sober and keep vigil,
The Judge is ut the gate?
The Judge that comes in mercy,
The Judge thut comes in might,
To terminate the evil,
Te diadem the right."
Oar titate Bo?ds,
The new bonds of South Carolina are
quoted in New York at 42 to 44, while the '
old arc from 70 to 80. The Columbia Union
complains that this is the result of the action
of the Tax-payers Convention. Is this
true ? If the action of that Convention
tended to effect the market value of State
securities, it surely would have affected it at
the time when the proceedings of that body
were in the minds of every oue. Besides, is
the continuation in power of the Radical
party of South Carolina less probable now
than then, or was it, or is it now, even a
probable question ? Most assuredly not, for
if anything is beyond question it is the continuation
in power of that party, for how
many years it is impossible to reckon. This
being the case, nnd the Tax-payers' Convention
representing no probably victorious political
power, it is absurd to say that the low
price of our bonds is attributable to the action
of that Convention.
But consider the matter in the light of
-well-known and undeniable facts, and the
inference is overwhelming that the Radicals
themselves are responsible for the rapid fall
of the new State bonds. A fortnight since
these bonds fell to their present quotations
from the peremptory sale of a largo amount
of tbetn by the holder, the depositor being
unable to redeem them. The bonds must
have been beposited as collateral for a loan
to the JStute, Why the necessity of a loan,
if tbe enormous taxes levied are sufficient to
meet current expenditures and pay the interest
on the public debt ? It may be said,
it is true that the taxes levied are sufficient
to meet these payments, but the people will
not or cannot pay them. If the people could
pay them they doubtless icould do so, rather
than see their lauds sold and bid in by tbe
State, or pass into the bauds of those whom
they regard as unpleasant neighbors. The
result then is that the people cannot pay the
onerous taxes, their lands and personalty arc
k
old, and the State being in most cases the
purchaser, she thus deprives herself of a
portion of her revenue annually, an?E consequently
has to borrow money on her own
bonds to make shift until taxes begin to
come in for the next year. This having
been the course of dealing for some time
past, and the sharp-eyed New Yorkers finding
out that there is really no substantial
foundation upon which this structure of borrowing
rests they quietly run down the
bonds to a figure at which it is impossible
they should lose anything. Take New
York, which is the wealthiest State in th T'ninn:
her debt amounts to $32,500,000v
while that of South' Carolina, one ot the
poorest, is $7,700,000, a little less than onefourth.
The Southern States are blessed
with a debt of $182,436,764, exceeding by
twenty millions of dollars the debts of all the
other States combined, and most of that
amount has been foisted upon, us by the
JRadical party.
The whole truth is that while- the interests
of the people are allowed to suffer by
'neglect, an insatiate spirit of speculation,
has befiu freely indulged by those whose
sworn duty it i9 to protect and foster the interests
of the State.
TheAncrum uudt uOykiu Case?Letter
from. Jos. Daniel Pope, Esq.
Columbia, S. C., Oct, 14, 1871.
Editor Camden. Journal? Dear Sir;
I have this moment read the report published
in your Journal, of the- examination
held) before Commissioner Booicr, in the
matter charged against Messrs. Boy kin and
Ancruui, as a violation of the Act of Congress,
known as the "Ka-Klux law." While
the statements made in the report are entirely
correct in point of facts, there is a
turn given to the report of them whi h wxinteutionaily
does injustice to the proceedings,
as they actually occurred. iVlr, John
Kershaw and myself, we of couusel for the
I TWonA-mfc Kof'.ivp flnmmiaRiniKrr and
j>lr. YVorthington was the retained prosecuting
attorney for the United States. Mr.
YVorthington ma member of the Columbia
Bar,aud was not a volunteer, but produced to j
the Commissioner his warrant of authority
to act in such cases for the government.
He presented his views of the case with ability
and considerable but not undue zeal,
with courtesy and with great frankness, as
it appeared to inc. It is true, it appeared
to Mr. Kershaw and myself, that there was
not a shadow of law upou which the prosecution
could rest an indictment, but it must
be remembered that we were counsel in the
cause, and not entirely free from that influence.
It will be also recollected that after
hearing the argument upon the law on
our side, Mr. YVorthingtpn very handsomely,
I think, stated that he was impressed by it
and it was not his purpose nor was it the object
of the government to press any case unduly
or harshly within the provisions of lhe?
Act, and that he would with pleasure, consider
whether this case was not one ichirh
could not, icith propriety, be brought under
fib at- Act* It
sioner, Mr. Boozer, after the argument,
ruled out thestatemeut which wereproposcd
should be received from the Defendants under
oath. But in doing this, he stated that
he felt himself bound by some very recent
rulings of J udges Bond and Bryan, in the
/'AH*-* iti whorp if Wnti
V/UlsUl* WWH AM VHUIIVUW.., ?' "V. v ..-w
said to have been held by them; that the
recent change of the law of evidence in that
regard in this State, did not apply in the
United States Courts. I, for one, had not
been informed of this recent ruling, having
in several cases within the last year introduced
the evideuce of the Defendants upon
indictments brought in the United States
Court without a questiou being made as to
its admissibility. This was something of a
surprise to us, but we were not prepared to
show the Commissioner that upon that point
he was absolutely in error, livery disinterested
witness produced by the prosecution,
clearly showed that there was not only no
con.piracy, (which is of course, the point of
the change,) but nothing like a conspiracy;
that particularly there was no conspiracy
against an ojficer of the United State*, and
that political opinion had nothing to do
with the matter; but Mr. Goes, the prosecutor,
had stated, vaguely, something to the
contrary in bis affidavit and his evidence,
and the Commissioner thought it best (as
they were not trying the case) to bind the
parties to answer, and let the prosecuting
officer of the government aetermine whether
it was such a case as should go before the
Grand Jury. In perfect good faith either
one of the counsel for the Defendants, if
acting as Commissioner might have done the
same thing. From what I kuow of this
charge, (as a violation of the Act of Concress.)
I know there is nothing in it?that
it is utterly without foundation, and I am
pursuaded from the spirit manifested at the
examination, that the proscuting officer of
the government, would arrive at the same
conclusion, and am confident that no indictment
will be preferred in the United States
Court against the Defendants, for the simple
reason that there is no ground for it, and
that those who have the matter in charge will
not attempt to make a ground where none
exists. Very respectfully,
Your obd't. servant,
Joseph Daniel Pope.

good and useful man, and among the many
works which he had published, there was not
one which could work an evil influence, or
bring a blush to the cheek of innocence.
