by the Btat© treasurer, each time, that
his books were in such a condition
that a settlement would at that time
be Impossible.
My position,'Mr. Idurley continued,
is a very simple one. I am ready nH2T
willing to settle with the State just as
soon as the Stato is witting and ready
to settle with me. Iu 1877 I mado a
settlement with the comptroller-gen
eral, as appears oh page 303 of the
compiroller-goneral’s report for tho
year ending October 31st, 1873, show
ing the county treasurers that had set
tled with the State. By ^settled” I
mean there was an understanding and
admission that I owed the State, ns
county treasurer, so much. Eight
county treasurers, fcMudtng myself,
are shown to have settled with the
and only terms. If I had told him nod
his army that their liberty would be
Invaded, that they would bo open to
nrtTOty-trtal, and executloir for trea
son, Dee would never have surrend
ored, and we should have lost many
lives In destroying him. Now, my
terms of surrender were According to
military law, t,o ‘the InetruotloBs of
Lincoln and Stanton; and, so long as
Lee was observing his pArole, I would
never consent to his arru-St. Seward
nodded approval. I remember feeling
very strongly on the subject. The
matter was allowed to die out. I
should have resigned the command of
the army rather than have carried out
a warrant for him, wken they knew any order directing me to arrest Lee

Ing aside for the moment hio other du
ties, should attend public meetings,
and keep himself abreast with the
politics of the hour. Tkfore especially
is it important at this hour, for the
State Is not yet safe. Those who at e
inclined to rest supinely on their past
achievements, and to lull themselves |
fiito security, are pursuing a course
fraught with Tlauger, and he who\
otands back while she calls is stabbing
his mother In the vitals. Let us take
a retrospective a lance at the history of
South Carolina after reconstruction.
Let tho people exercise a judicious
'comptroller-general, and twenty-one
choice in the pelectlou of cahdidates.
Let no local prejudice or sectional-feel

Xtest men should be chosen, whoever

[ the country they may come. As Gov-
