give the exact affair. Hardy Solomons
merchant of Columbia held a claim
against the State in pay certificates <&c <fec
to tho amount of $125,000, which he de
manded to be settled by Treasurer Car
doza. The Treasurer refused to pay the
claim, and Mr.Solomons who is president
of the Hank in which tbo deposits of the
Treasurer, and various County treasurers
were made, shut down on $65,000 of
such deposits to pay himself. The result
is a suit between the claimant and

Excites great intercut in Charleston.
The brothers Duffus are both very young
and their able counsel are bringing all
tho power of argument to clear fhcin of
the dilibcratc murder of young West.
What the result of the case will be is yet
undetermined. In this case the happi
ness and peace of trvo families are perma
nently destroyed by the demon (Whiskey)
and a lessou is tobe learned by our youth
who frequent the dens of infamy. Since
writing the above we learn from the
Charleston papers that after five days
of earnest effort on the part of the able
counsel for the accused, the jury have
brought in a verdict of ''Murder/ on the
part of J. L. Duffus, and manslaughter
on the part, of his brother.
The meeting at Branchville lo memoria
lize the general assembly on the subject
of unjust assessment, and to condemn the
action rf the Comptroller, is ono wh.cb
reflects credit upon our sinter town, and
sloth upon ourselves. No community has
suffered more than Ornngeburg proper.no
class of property has bean more heavily
taxed, and no people seem .?o utterly su
pine and apathetic under the lash. Are
wc to remain thus; or tfrowe to appeal
for relief; whether it is obtained or not
is not for us to enquire, we hope for
little fluni euch a rule as that which
is over us. Yet it is the duty of the op
pressed to repTohato audhold up to light
the hideous doforrmty of the thing called
government under which we live. Let
the Oraugeburg. taxpayern have a meet
ing and act with BranchvOle.
ASSESSMENTS.
Ma run County demands a reassess
ment of its property, and a committee
has been sent there to look into the books
of the Auditor. "We have very little
faith in the visit of the committee, as it is
a cog in the party wheel, but we insist
that something can and should be done
in the matter of assessment. If a com
mittee of nppraisors was sent to value tho
various property lately returned for tax
ation, it would render in, an aggregate of
at least thirty per cent less, provided said
committee was looking into the value
of property to tho owners, and not the
value of such property to the assessors.
In Orangeburg for instance the owners of
property have affirmed On oath to the
value of property, and in almost every
case, the returns have been set aside, ami
ono made according to the assessment of
the officers of that department.
"We are forced to admit "that ye are
the people" but dissent "that wisdom
shall die with you" Let the people have
another assessment. It will save them
many thousands.

LECTURE ON
RELIGION!
BY
HON. F. J. MOSES, JR ,
AUTHOR OF
"Moses' Notes," "Moses on Virtue,' &c.
Ex-Speaker of the House of Representa
tives, and Now, through the Unac
countable Mercy of a Divine
Providence, Exercising the
Duties of Governor of
South Carolina.
The Lecturer hast bceu secured at an
immenso expense to the State. The sub
ject of his Lecture is Religion, which, for
many years, he has made his study, and.
in order to become the master of his sub
ject, he bns devoted the entire Contingent
Fund to this purpose. He is n living ex
ample of what Religion can do for hu
manity, when properly understood. He
will show bow little faith can bo placed
in doctrines of the Church Fathers; that
to have Religion, one must necessarily
possess Morality, Chastity, Truth, Hones
ty, Good Faith, Reverence and Filial
Love, (to iay nothing of Virtu re.) He
will show in his own person that one can,
in bis opinion, be Religious, from a Chris
tian standpoint, without possessing any
of the aforesaid imaginary qualities. He
will show that without them one can rise
to the highest position in the State. Du
ring the Lecture, he will produce Neagle
as an example of man without Religion,
possessed of the Devil. In order to elu
cidate his subject thoroughly, he will
show to the audience a tablet upon which
is engtaved a Pay Certificate signed by
the original Moscb for current expenses
incurred in drowning Pharaoh; a stone
from Alt. Sinai, telling the price of an
office in that land 3,000 years ago; a
Rook of Promises, written by himself; a
vase found in the garden of the Republi
can Printing Company, containing $20,
000; also, several duplicate copies of the
Collcion Gazette, taken from the corner
stone of the Preston Mansion.
On this occasion the Lecturer will be
dressed in full u iiform, manufactured by
Cowdilly from tho original flag, hauled
down at Sumtcr. lie will also wear
the sword with which ho cut himself loose
from Ti uth and Virtue ever since In
fancy.
The Music for the occasion will be
furnished by tho 81,000 Certificate Post
Rand, which will play, by request, some
of the airs performed at the Gubernatorial
Mansion during the summer, with selec
tions, also, from "a hundred thousand
more."
A Quartette from tho Penitentiary
will be present, and Bing at the close of
the Lecture.?
"Return ye ransomed sinners home."
The Cashier of one of our Ranks has
kiudly consented to preside at tho organ.
Price of Adnission, 75 Cents.
