C. OttAMiKmnta, s. c., January ig. isso. The Supply Aot. As evidence of the hasty manner in ?which the business of the late session of the Legislature was transacted, we have only to cite a clerical mistake in tho above act which makes a dificr ence in the Stale tax levy of 825,000 more than tho Legislature intended. This is one out of three or four simi lar errors committed. Whether it is wrong to call an extra session to cor rect tho error, is scarcely the question to bo considered, hut whether the law as approved by the Governor is the act passed by the Legislature? If it id not, ihen the question is settled and nn extra session is a necessity, even though it taks more than the $25,000 to pay its expenses. The question is of such a grave nature that it will scarcely bo allowed to go unchallenged either by the people or some executive olllcer of the county government. It is better to have the point definitely settled at once by the law making power, rather than pro ceed to execute the law until nn issue be made before the Supreme Court and the act decided to he illegal. In this Case, expenses will have been in curred and labor performed by tho Various county officials to meet which an additional tax will be required to be levied at the extra session. If the matter go to the Court for a de cision and that decision be against its legality, then the Legislature cannot be called together before spring when the fanning interest will require the presence of every man at home. Let the Legisla'urc be called in extra ses sion for this specific purpose and only this, and it will not require the addi tional 11 of a mill. Proceed to col lect the taxes under the act and it will require more than that to meet the expenses. Besides it is a bad precedent to establish. A Solid Union. Col. Ellison S. Keitt, of Newherry Count}*, has given his new political idea something of a shape and body, by causing, through his personal in fluence, a "Solid Union Club" to be organized in his immediate neighbor , hood. An earnest desire for a cordi al reunion of the people of the entire country is the bnsis upon which this political fabric is built; and, as a smd off, the club adopted a resolu tion nominating Gen. U. S. Grant and Senator Thos. Bayard as their standard bearers for President and Vice-President in Ihe next election. We doubt very njuch if the people of Newberry Count}', outside of Mr. Keitt's personal friends and relations, are prepared, or ever will be, to in dorse a movement which, at a single stroke, v.'ipou out their proud war re cord and their pattioUc induranee of the wrongs which oppressed South Carolina during the eight years of her deep humiliation. Wc fail to sec in Gen. Grant a single trait of char acter to entitle him even to ordinary respect by Southern people. Never was his lite, al any period either as a military leader or Picsideut, tnaiked by a service of unselfish devotion to the cause of his country. Never was his actions prompted by motives of sincere patriotism. Asa military leader his conduct of the war was as brutal as that of the wildest savage in the West. The rifle, sword and torch were equally effective with him. As President, he was a partizan, ruling the country in the interest of the par ty which elected him, even at the sac rifice of honesty and her good name. The South, therefore, cannot look upon Gen. Grant cither as a patriot or statesr. m ; and she would be un true to her history were she to recog nize in him any other title lo great ness than that of a brutal conqueror or a corrupt official. - - ? ? ? ? Tho State Grange. By a resolution of the executive committee, the State Grange of South Carolina will be held in the city of Charleston on Tuesday, the 3rd of February, next. Col. Jas. N. Lips comb, Master of that body, says, "Hals meeting will bo llio most impor tant yet held in this State. Questions and matters of vast interest and vital importance to the order, to agricultu rists, and to the ?hole State, will bt considered, acted upon and determin ed." In view of the letter of Col. D Wyatt A ikon immediately after his ittendancc upon the National Grange lately met ut Canauduigua, N. Y., and this pressing, appeal of Col. Lips comb, our citizens will wait with more than usual intorest upon the proceeding of this body. It is gener ally admitted that there is not the same interest manifested in tho sue* cess of this order as was manifest a| few years ago. Lodges have d ied out, others are dormant, many are diag ging out a miserable existence, while only a few are realizing the benefits the order so abundantly oilers. Some move ought to bo made to revive the interest and reanimate dead Granges, We know of no scheme better calcu lated to benefit the farmer, nnd through him, the < Mire State than that of tho Patrons of Husbandry. Indeed it is <be only system, yet in troduced upon which the fanners can unite and discuss their varied inter ests. Every question that directly or indirectly concerns the agriculturist may legitimately bo brought before the members of the Grange. At no lime lias the necessity for union been greater lhan at the present moment. New theories in planting have been developed, new plans introduced and new results must he arrived at ; and no where can these bo belter moulded to the fanner's interest than in the Grange room. Freedman's Bank, Ihe negroes are hacking up Con gressman O'Connor in his efforts to secure the repayment of their deposits in this Radical swindling machine, by long petitions praying for the passage of the bill introduced by him. A pc lion with more Ihnn a thousand sig natures from Newborn, N. C, was presented to Congress last week, and others from various sections of the South are being prepared for the same purpose. The bill will doubt less pass and by the joint vote of the Democrats and Republicans, because the leaders of the latter, over ready to take advantage of a popular cur* rent, will drift into the movement and afterward swear it was always their intention to see that justice should be done the poor negro. Their criminal intention, however, has been too pal pable, and the negro by this time sees it in the long delay of the "stal warts" to institute even a measure looking to justice. Nothing has had more to do in breaking the confidence of the nation's wards in their Repub lican guardians than this foul swin dle, and nothing will have more to do in winning that confidence for the Democrats than this timely act of Mr. O'Connor. That Count In. The Republicans appear to be vir tuously indignant over the Maine cmbroglio. Now, while we would not attempt to justify the action of the Maine Democrats in counting out the Republican oliicials elected by the people, we think this indignation comes in bad taste from a party that stole the Presidency three years ago, and arc ready lo 6tcal it again should the necessity again arise for them to do so. Their violent outcry about fraud reminds us of a story we once read. It run in about this wise : "On one of those s'earners that ploughed the waters of the Mississippi in days gone by, a quiet patty was deeply im mersed one evening in the mysteries of that somewhat uncertain game called draw poker. One of the par ty, a colonel, judge, or major?histo ry does not record which?in a fit of abstraction took the four aces from the pack with which the game was be ing played, and laid them on his knee. The game progressed and the colonel almost 'raised' his antagon gists out of their boots. When the 'draw* came ho threw away his legit imate five cards, called for one, and reached for the four aces on his knee. They were gone! Rising he cried, in tones of virtuous indignation, 'Gen tlemen this thing has gone far enough. There's cheating going on around the table!'" Our readers can make the application. - i i ? The Maine Muddle. Two issues ago we noticed editori ally the counting in of the Democrat ic candidates for the Legislature and the counting out of the Republican candidates by Governor Garcelon and Council. Such a hold act iu a Now England State must necessarily create a great political furor, and, if persisted in with the daring that characterized the Governor's conduct, j roust end. at least, in temporary ana I chy. Since Ihcn tho Republican pop I tilace have been spurred to madness by such men as Senator Rlaino anil bis co-workers, and the Democratic loaders, who claim to be acting under tho Constitution and the laws, have developed an opposition that threat ens the peace oi the state. Governor Garcelon was induced to submit tho legality of his course ol conduct to the decision of the Statt Supreme Court in a series of qucs ion:', with no expectation ol strengthening his position, but to meet the demands of public opinion. This court, composed almost wholy of Republicans, delivered an opinion adverse to those entertained by Mr. Garcelon and his followers. The re sult of this decision was the lesigna tion of Governor Garcelon and the turning over of the properly and the institutions of state to the protection of Major-Gen. Chamberlain. Tho Democrats or Fusionibis, counted in by the Governor and Coun cil met in Augusta, organized the Legislature nud proceeded to busi ness. From this body the Republi cans studiously absented themselves with a single exception, Mr. J. A. Locke, who remained only to impede or hinder if possible the business ol the body bynhjections and challenges. During all this time the excitement was intense throughout the state, and especially in the city of Augusta, where the leaders of both parlies had congregated to bolster up and streng then Ihc Democratic members ou the one side and tho Republican claim ants on Ihe other. At six o'clock P. M. on Monday last, the Republicans unknown to the Fu9ionisls, proceeded to the State House, took possession of both cham bers and organized a Republican Legislature out and out. Mr. John H. Lam son, President of the .Senate, issued an order that he had assumed the duties of Governor by qualifying in the presence of the Secretary ol State and several members of the Council. The position of affairs in Maine at this time, is as follows: Two acling Governors, Gon. Chamberlain and Mr. Lamson ; two Legislatures, one Democratic or Fusionist, and the oth er Republican; and two excited par ties, determined to push their viewe if need he to the bitter end. Thus far, we are of the opinion that the Republicans are on the winning side. The Fusionisto will certainly elect a Governor from their parly and, in lhat case, the settlement of the diffi culty will depend upon the action ol Geb. Chamberlain, which governor he recognizes. It is confidently assert ed that it will not be Mr. Lamson. Wo of South Carolina, having passed through a similar experience in 187G, only more bitter and threat ening, can well afford to stand off and look at these New England politicans cutting each other's throats. They are juat now harvesting the fruit of the noxious seed they planted in the South. A Scandal in Edgefield. Tkenton, S. C., January 8.?To day Oscar Foy, a man who has been employed ou the plantation cf the Widow Vaughan, in this county, has made a confession, in which he states lhat he and Mrs. Vaughan poisoned I with strychnine the husband of the latter, who died suddenly about a year ago. The deceased was one of the wealthiest planters in this com munity and stood high in scciely. His widow was young and charming. Afler the death of Vaughan, Foy managed the plantation for the wid ow and became very attentive to her. Iu the,confession of Foy he states that he bought the poison in Augusta, (ia., and gives the name of tho drug gist. He says it was administered in whiskey by Mrs. Vaughan. Foy con fesses to having been criminally inti mate with Mrs. Vaughan, and says the object of the poisoning was to get Vaughan out of the way in order lhat Foy might marry tho widow. A doctor was not sent for until Vaugh an was dead, and he pronounced it the cliect. of heavy drinking. Foy was to have gone to Florida and re turn to marry Mrs. Vaughan. Those to whom ho confessed declined to tako any steps in tho matter, and be begged to be arrested. Foy left a few days after and has not been since heard from. Mrs. Vaughan denies the truth of the confession, and says Foy quarreled with her and trumped up the Btory for revecge. No arrests have beeu made. The affair has created a profound sensation in this section of the State.?Atlanta Constitution. Opening the Campaign. The Republicans are beginning to dot the South with bloody shirt or gans to sorve their purposes in the ensuing general election. They have already established the Jjcdger in New Orleans, which the telegraph an nounce a few days ago had made its debut with a liberal advertising pat ronagc from "Democrats"? save the mailt! Last night's dispatches pro claim tho advent at Little Rock of the Arkansas Rcpublicant and it is rumored that an organ of the party is to be CBtablisbebTfn Columbia at an early day. We trust if it does tbe the citizens will force it to rely entire ly on the contributions of the party it means to foist upon us if possible to our irretrievable ruin.?Jttgistcr. Attention.
