Dear Sir:?If you have the opportunity, please let it be known that the efforts made to discovor and 3cll ah ndoncd land is entirely for the purpose of protecting the tax payers, and seeing that tho.ie who do not pay taxes, hour their share in the cost of State Government. Where large bodies of land have been for years paying no taxes, it is certainly pro per that they should he made to pay. The State had no intention of oppressing the people but only to see that all are on an equal footing. There are cases where parties have no deed for their land?Now where taxes have been paid for the last 10 years tiiis make* no difference. '/'< n yen ex xndisputt d jtomtession yive* a (food title.

I will he glad to furnish full information to anyone who want it and will write to mo. Yours Very Truly, Jambs G. Glume's. State I .and Agent* Editor IIohky 11 KU.vi.n: I saw in tho Reyhter a short time ago a piece relating (o the Fisrli Pa trolsj of Winyah Bay. In regard tc the breaking up of tho Fishermen I think that the notorious writer is sadly mistaken when ho says that i; was, 0. F. Caughman's strict attendance to duty that Broke up the fishing before the season was out. If Mr. Caughman was such a strict Patrol, how was it that there was not a man reported for fishing on unlawful days. Caughman cannot deny the fact, that (he Shad Fishermen fished unlawful days as well as lawful ones. As (o t he size and safety of the Patrol Boat. Cupt. Woodbury says it was safe for Cuughmuu and his crow. If so why did he (Caughnian) tell one of his Sub-Patrols to stay in town as the boat was not large enough to carry him. And I, as an experienced waterman, agree with Caughnian on that point. Again Col. speaks of being caught in a North West blow or storm in his boat. Did not he (Caitghman) show that letter to one of his Patrols and tell him that he only did that to bind (old man Ben,) as that was his favorite name for Gov. Tillman. 1 don't think Mr. Caughnian over saw tho wind blow very hard in Winyah Bay. 1 am sure the Little Patiol Boat would not live in a very heavy storm with Cauglnnan and crew nuoaru. Again ho, (Caughman) gets Doar and Detyens to write a letter to Gov. Tillrnan, and the Great Josiah says he lias no axe to grind: now if ever there was a man trying to grind his axe Josiah is tho man. Had Mr. Dour or Detyens inquired or listened to public talk ho could not have written such a letter for Mr. Caugh man. Though we are not much supprised at Mr. Doar as he thought by doing that it would help him to get his tit again. Did not Doar say openly that he would sit on a jury five months or more before lie would convict a man for shad fishing. Therefore we cannot expect any thing bettor of him. Again they say that ('apt. Daggett was asked by letter to give better information. 1 say (positively that if such a letter was written it never reached its destination. Had Capt. . v ?* - HOJb Daggett got tin letter, I am sure, ho ? j would have given all and any itifor- i ma*ion asked for Letting that stand as it is, was it right for 'low Tillman, j "as Gov. South Carolina to send n re-; port to a man reported <>r not. 1 sav j i not. It seems like it was his duty as . Gov. to try aud investigate the matter quietly without let'ing his Pet?j, Cal. know any thing of it. Hut probably we don't sue as a one eyed man j does. 11 seoui8 to its that Tillman, Caoghmnn, l)oar and Detvens all as j, the old adage says.

From u litu rary point of n cw the letter is tip-top; but its letigtli is entirely too great. Those ve'eruns of the (?. A.

It was very well known to the President and the members of the Cabinet that the National Government lias no legal authority to over-ride or sot aside the health regulations ami laws of any laws of any state; but it was expected that the proclamation would be endorsed I>v the State Hoards of Health, which would make it as binding as if it were actually a law, and a number of them have approved the proclamation. So fur as known the only "kicker" is the health oflicor of New Vork City, and no fears are entertained of a:.y serious class with him, but if lie should try to make trouble the Attorney General will at once recommend to President Harrison tho calling of an extra scs sion of Congress to pass a law putting the control of all quarantine against foreign countries in charge of National authorities. It would he a blow to "state's rights," but at, Mich a tune of general peril the benefit of the whole country would probably out weigh, in the eyes of Congress, any injury that might be done to theories of any sort by the passage of such a law. The true theory of government is the greatest good to the greatest ntimber.
