CAMDEN S. C., NOYEMIJEIi 23.
A CiiHptor frotn the Tribuac.
A correspondent of the New York /V/hnne,
writing frotn Yorkviiie. S. C., makes
the remarkable statement :
1 think it was Wendell 1 hillips who said.
"Scratch a Southern gentleman and you'll
fnd a Ku Klux." In this up-country of
South Carolina "scratch a white man and
vou'll find a Ku Klux" would he a better parf
ilniiht if there are one hundred
- ;
able-bodied white ?nieii m this county who
have nut ben initiated into the order. It
euibrares buys of 10 and gray-beards < f CO.
1 have seen a grandfather, father and s..n
mine together to avow themselves members.
All classes were included. The land proprietor
and tlie poor ' crackers" on his estate
rode together in the midnight raids.
])nctnrs, law vers, merchants, teachers and
preachers put 011 the white shroud-like
frowns, and the horrid red homed hoods and
O ' 1
masks of the Klan. and went out by night to
tike negroes from their cabins and beat
them with clubs and cowhides until the lacerated
flesh was cut to the t ndons and
bones, and for no other offense than daring
to*vote the liadical ticket, or keeping a shotgun,
or not taking off their hat to white toon.
These chivalrous gentlemen pulled negro
women from their beds and made them dance
naked for the amusement of the spectators,
beating the vict'ins with ramrods to quicken
their steps, and forcing tl.cn to submit to
other outrages too revolting for description.
These brave and honorable South Carolinians
thought it daring and manly to gn 1)0
strong to attack one negro in his lonely cabin
in the woods, anu to liang him to a tice
in sight of his wife and children?exulting,
as they returned from this niglitlv exploit,
in the fact "the damned scoundrel would ucv"
1 * ? 1 ?
cr make any wore KaUicai spcecuua.
This a sample of the kind of letters which
go to tho Northern press for publication, to
be read by their thousands of subsribcrs and
readers. It gives a picture too horrible and
revolting to be believed by any sane creature
who knows the Southern people. Yet
many men at the North will take it as purest
truth and imagine that we are very demons
and savages. Yet. how different swill be the
picture when tficse men who have been arrested,
are tried before the tribunals of justice.
Then it frill be seen how this people
has been slandered, how innocent uien have
been cast into prison, their families dependent
upon their earnings for bread left in a
destitute and starving condition. If ever
there was a time in the history of this Government,
when men should blush to be called
citizens of the United States, that time
ptnmcanflj3rm nf spectp
Cle whichFJ^fi?e /ET'?> jII1 lot 01 1.11* U.IPPglfi.?
accompanying the gift of" unlimited power to
an irresponsible u.au like Grant, that spectacle
is furnished now, in South Carolina.
It is doubtful, in our estimation, if many j
of the alleged Ku K lux will be tr'el at the
approaching term of the Court. Tho object
of Grant is not to bring the parties to justice,
but to further his re-phi ion by causing a
false notion of the condition of things at the
South, to get abroad.
If what this correspondent says is true
about white citizens of the up-country, then
it is a remarkably strange tiling that among
those arrested tor Ku Kluxisui, in York,
there are no less than eleven colored men.
This gives the direct lie to the Tribnm man,
and shows that his capacity for scribbling is
exceeded by that fur lying. Time will vindicate
us.
"We have ever condemned these Kn Klux
operations and will continue to do so, but we
prefer to await tho developments that we
hope will be made before tho courts, rather
than to trust to the prejudiced pennings of
men whose pens are dipped in gall, whose
bosyms rankle with hatred and whose souls
have been bought by the father of lies, by i
tho aid of the almighty dollar.
What arc j on Cooing to <lo About It.
From most of the i\ew lorx papers, we >
glean accounts of proceedings going to show
a large increase of the State debt. There
arc various suspicions circumstances attending
the discovery of this scouting fraudulent
increase of debt, which seem to us to demonstrate
that the Radical lling has been on the
lookout for some time and arc not surprised
that it should be now discovered. At the
time of the session of the Tax-payers Con.
vention. Gov. Scott reported the debt of the
State to be about 8S,000.000. Some time later,
writing to Senator Scott, he reported it to he
$9,52S,564. Now, however, it is admitted !
by Scott & Co., that there have been printed
of bonds $20,0-10,000. of which there have
not been issued $9,000,000. Leaving a total
issue of 811,040.000: Scott says that
three and a half millions of sterling bonds
have not been issued, which will leave out of i
the six millions authorized, 8J,300,000. Of
registered stock, there have been issued
$2,540,000. 3Iaking a total issue, if we mistake
not, of $16,080,000.
But if we misunderstand the card of Scott,
Parker & .Dennis, published in the New
York papers, and arc incorrect in placing
the debt at sixteen millions, then we return
to Scotts statement of Sept. 20, in which l?c
places the debt at 80,528,504. Add to this ^
the amount mentioned by them on their card
Oo issued ?5,040,000, and we reach the result
that the State debt is S14?56S,5C4.
According to the last Governor's Message
the debt was ?7,GG3.908,9S and by substracting
this from the total above reached it will
be seen that tho State debt has been inm
creased, in one year 80,902x053,02, or in
other words, that it has nearly been doubled,
and taking our first estimate, that it
has been increased by about' eight and a
half millions of dollars.
The Mew York financiers have been endeavoring
to fathom the secret of this over
issue, but with 110 success, or very little.
We have tried to fathom it, for thclast three
years, with no better success, and there is
little reason to hope that any explanation
will be vouchsafed at the approaching session
of the Legislature, which will be at all
satisfactory to the intelligent people of the
! State. What is our remedy? We arc not
J iii a condition to repudiate any portion of
I the debt, because wo have no control over afj
fairs and we do not know that repudiation
would be of much benefit to us We have
j no ''Committee of Seventy" to undertake
the necessary investigation, for no access
would be allowed to any Committee except
one which would do the whitewashing for
the concern, and if New York sharpers failj
ed to fathom the mystery, it is unlikely and
j improbable that we could. The only hope
i is in the people, that they rise to thccmcr!
gency of the occasion and seek to redeem
I the State by filling her offices with honoraj
lie men, with the next election ; that they
j rise above party*and prejudice, and join to!
gcthcr to overthrow iniquity and crown honesty
and h >nor.
With County and State, in fact, Bankrupt.
unable to meet their liabilities, it is
' time that something was being done to wrest
ourselves from the grasp of the vultures who
arc feeding upon our vitals, the Ilarpics who
; are sucking the very life blood of the State.
The S. ('. Agricultural and Mechanical
Association?A Joint Stock
Proponed.
Paring the late Fair of the above Association.
it was proposed that the Association
resolve itself into a joint stock company. By
this arrangement, the Association will be
enabled to offer a much larger premium list,
thereby exciting competition and adding
greater interest to its annual Fairs. Quite a
large number of shares at ten dollars each,
have already been subscribed, and it is hoped
that the proposition will be received favorably
by all well wishers of the agricultural
and mechanical interests of the State. The
plan has been incorporated into many associations
of this character in other States
both iu the North and South, and the stock;
holders frequently reap a rich dividend upon
their shares. Indeed, we'have heard of one
instance iu which the dividend in one year
was twenty per cent. Should this proposal
be generally acceded toandsharcs taken,itis
required from each stockholder, and that
even with these low figures, it can be uiade
to pay a handsome dividend.
What has become of our County Agricultural
Association ? Would it not be well for
that body to take this proposition in hand
and help the cause along ? ?

laborers and settlers, and as we consider it a
mat ter of public interest to the South, we desire
that you would give it publicity. Wo
have also received many letters from persons

their character, location, price, terms, health,

to move South, and obtain employment as

amount of wages that would be paid, aud
other particulars.
With the view of promoting immigration,
wc invite all persons who desire to obtain reliable
white labor to send in their orders to

Charleston S. C.:
Dear Sirs?Your esteemed favor of
August 18th is duly received, and would
have been replied to by to return mail, had
not the letter remained over for the writer
of this (our Mr. Heed, who is iu America,)
to answer.
In the first place, let us assure you that
our sympathies and best wishes are with you
and your State, and we shall be happy if
(through yourselves or any othor way) we
can be of any service to her or yourselves.
* * * $ * *
As regards emigrants, we can assure you
that there arc no better and nobler set of
men than the farmers' sons, gardeners, &c.,
of this country, and now that the Alabama
business is settled, we can send you just as
many of the very best of these people as you
can handle. Some- have just enough to pay
passage, others not enough, requiring aid
say to the extent of 810 each, to be paid
out of their wages Some have a few pounds
to spare; again, some others have quite a
pretty amount of money, say 8250 to 81500.
Some even 8-000 to 85000.
Now, if we can get you to aid- souie, say
to the extent of ten dollars per head?that
is per adult?to be afterwards repaid, and,
1'or which we take a due bill, (to be sent' to
you,) payable on demand, you can have all,
the good,square, honest, capable, sober, intelligent,
hard-working people you want.
Can we say more? Wc send none whose
capacity and character arc not pood, and
this we take care of. Among the thousands
wc send, wc think it would be difficult to find
a bad character It is the creain, the bone
and sinew wejselcct, not the profligate, worthless
or indolent.
Wc shall be happy to do all wc can toserve
the purpose you have in view, and will
send the people toy* u by our line of steamships
running to Norfolk and Baltimore, and
forward them to Charleston by rail, unless
you prefer sending some one to Norfolk to
meet and take parties on to Charleston.
Let us hear from you at your curly convent
ience. and let. us hear all you ?can do and'
will do for such people, as we may sand,
you.

Tiie Two Great Tunnels.?The following
statement of the dimensions, cost ?&c., of
the two great tunnels of the world is interesting:
The Mont Cenis tunnel is 12,240 metres
in length, or nearly eight miles; width,
twenty-six feet, eight inches, height twenty
feet, cost, i? 13,01)0,001); time occupied in
construction, nine years ; number of workmen
employed, about 2.IHHL
The lloosac tunnel is2U,0Gl feet in length,
or abuilt four aiul lhrce-<juarters nilcs; width,
twenty-four feet; height, twenty-one feet;
cost about SG,UU0,UUU j time ?f construction,
when completed, nearly twenty years; number
of workmen employed, about TOO at present,
but much less during the most of the
time the work has been prosecuted.
The chief cngeering dilliculties attending
the construction of the Hoosuc tuunel have
been overcome, and the amount ofprogress
in a given time can now bo so accurately
predicted that the engineers and contractors
have no doubt that the work will be com- '
plctnd before the 15th of .March, 187J, the '
date named in the contract.
A Gypsy I'akl iament.?The Gypsy
parliament which meets once every seven
years, and consists of delegates from all the ,
countries of Europe, is expected to assemble
soon near Canstat, in Germany. The king
of this nomadic race is one Joseph lleinhard,
who has attained the vcne;able age of ninety-eight
years, lie lias had seven wives,
" - n ft A .
and is the lather ot lorty-uve ciiuurcn.?
There are in Spain about 40,000 Gypsies, in
Knuland more than 18,000. while Austria
lias 07,000 and Moldavia and Wall&chia are
the chosen homes of nearly 200,000 more.
Their religion has been the subject of much
unsatisfactory discussion. Perhaps the Hindoo
saying, "there are seventy-two religions
and a half in the world, the half being the i
religion of the J hats, (or Gypsies,)" comes 1
as near to a correct definition as any.
