We siml Soon See h1)owV IIanIy peo~ ple in 1airfield are foolish enough or truckling enough to pay money to a tax-gatherer appointed by the usu Ilper Chamberli. The splendid work of the cam paign will have meant notbing at all. I if those who labored so well for H1amp1i)tol and llReform shall now give aid to the Bayonot Government -or refus.e to contribute to the Pup port of the Constitutional Gowurh, *men)t. it is due to G0overnor Nampton, in simple good faith; that the *eo)ple who placed him, 'witho'ut any seek ing whatever on his pai, in the position lie now holds, should re spond promptly aiid fully to bis call for menta to -support the govern ment of whilch hi is the chosen -head. The hypocritical Chamberlain 'onco made a great noise over the heavy taxation imposed liy the Log isuature. Now he ap1roves a bill which, wero it lawfully passed, would load the taxpayers with a heavior burden than any before healped upon them. SReiturning boards and United States troops may put tire machine ry of a Stato goveinment inl the hands of a defeated 'political party but neither ean put money into a State troasury if a People, having the Law and the Courts on their side, resolve to paty no taxes to the usurpors. Suppose the Chamberlain ofhcials should go through the farceo of olling people's property for non p;yeniiilt of the so-called taxes where will the plmsor:; com1o froin ? And how will the pretended purchasirs got possession ? Can (liuuinberlain1 answer ? Can 1911iott UnswerI?

Several thousand1 dollars have been received, aind the Governor informed tihe su p~erintend~ent of the penitentiary and of the lunatic asylum that he was prepared to p~rovide for tile relief of those institutions, and directed the superintendents to draw on him for the sumis needed. Both institu tioins sadly needled assistance. The man who pay taLxes to the Chamberlain government only does the foolish tiling of voluntarily taking. the risk of haying them to pay over again. The Supreme Court has decided, Verbis ipeissimnis, that the Wallace House is the lawv ful House of Representatives of the State of South Carolina: hence tihe so-called Rouse run by E. W. M. Mackey is really no part at all of the law-making branch of the State government. How, then, can a tax levy be enforced, when iL has not been passed by the Constitutional House? Maybe Judge Rond can answer. Thme tax levied by the Mackey Hlonso for the fiscal year 1876-77 is eigh teen mitls-fifteen mills State tax and three mills county tax.! This, we hcieve,' laisger than aniy levy made for Fimirfield since Re-' construction. Tile thieves will not be long, we believe, in learning' that Daorcus and uiluls, but paid them becauso they woro imposed in iccordance with law, will not comply with the present denand for money. The unlawful taxes will not bo paid!
