The lUtfamm of tbe next decade
must be men at thought end not of
peeaion. The country, which bee been
living politically, end ecting perbepe
et the euntb, ex well ee et the north,
too much upon eectionel feeling, le rap
idly awakening to Ibe feet tbet while
it bee been following the lend of men
wbo been played upon the paeeione
end prejudice, of tbe hoar, it bee
wandered far away from the prneperity
in which it wee living when this char
acter of leadenhip began. Tbe aeaeon
of reflection and ret roe paction which
alweye cornea with tbe quiet an weed
ing a atormy period, haa arrived. * The
people are beginning to aut of them-
aelvea, "Where do we aland T”
What is the cauee of thia unwarran
ted depreeeioa in business? Why are
tbe manufacturing eatabliahmenta aua-
pended? Why la commerce para
lysed? Why ia there no more work
for thelaboren to perform f Why,
when be labora, cannot hia employer
afford him living wageaf And why, in
a word, thia condition of tbinga which
pruducea etrikaa and riota to terrify
and dialreaa the landT Ia not the gov
ernment to blame for thia wretched
auite of affaire? If tbe government

It ia liieae queetioue tbet the country
aake ot thoee who profeae to be wiae
enough to legislate for Ibeir fellows—
and to which they eepect an answer—
to which it ia certainly expected that
calm and though:ful attention will be
given.
Tbe frothy and aenaatiooal claaa ol
men who have to ao great an extent
monopolized our national legislature*
since the war, will no longer be in or
der, unirae we mucti mistake the tem
per of the people. Men who have
thought more end electioneered less,
end who era willing to think end work
more, and give leae attention to court-
ing popular favor, ere now in demaud,
ana ebould come to the front. Men
wbo will attempt toao direct legiele-
■VtOT,, or to benefit the country,
and not for their own aggrandisement
—wbo are more patriotic and leas par
tisan. We advise tlioae who expect to
retain the public esteem to think lees
and talk leea about questions which are
peel, which are dead and should be
huriad out of sight. Especially is this
true of all sectional questions growing
out of the war. The mass of the sol
diers on both aides have become ms
I ured men, with families and interests
in tbe country. They have bed enough
of war and enough ol fooling; and
while they retaiu a pride in the past,
they do not cam to have questions re
lating to that peat entertained and dis
cussed to the exclusion of questions af
fecting tbe present and future material
interests of themselves sod their child
ren.
The person who fl dtera yonr pride
and aelf-loTe and eaten to your feelings
is all wall enough iu liia piece, but when
yon are hungry ilia individual wbo fills
yonr stomach is preferable. It

taken from the state by Treasurer Par
ker. AU of these details were given in
bis testimony.
Hardy Salomons* $125,000 bill was
ordered paid at this session, and Bowen
told how this was done thrice over. It
was compoeed of pay certificates. The
mt*inhere of the legislature had received
them and receipted the treasurer for
them; they had beed sold to Solomans,
who receipted for them elan, and then
he: aggregated them in bis bill, out ot
which tee paid $80,000 to have it passed,
and It was paid. vrrr~>
This hall of Parker, the treasurer,
was equivalent to that which gave him
another voucher for $90,000 in hia offi
cial accounts, as appears from the tes
timony before the committee. The
republican printing company’s bill for
thit amount was ordered paid by the
legislature. They sold ths bill to
Comptroller General Neagle for $20,-
000 cash. Neagle took it, receipted by
the company for $90,000 to the treas
urer, who gave him $90,000 of Blue
ridge railroad scrip, retaining $10,000
for lilmself. Upon the treasonr a
books the receipt of the company rep

The investigating committee has ro*
aumod its secret labors—even the wit
nesses are tw«ia to secrecy. -Moees
was th e 6 Bt real informer, and he made
a clean breast of it He was asked to
recount for the various sums wulch he
had received as speaker and governor.
Moses modestly estimated these at
$500,000, while the higher valuation is
$900,000 —though figures were no ques
tion between Moses aud the commit
tee. After calling over the larger
sums, which bore heavily upon his
memory, he acknowledged that he
“had Bpent it ail.” There was $25,000
in one pile which he, as speaker, re
ceived from United States Senator
John J. Patterson. “What was that
for?** It appears that in 1871 Moses
began to tire of the retail perquisites
of his position through the committee
which lie appointed. Besides, being a
candidate for governor, he was ire-
quently cheated by his subordinates in
making fair returns of the bribery
money their committees made. Pat*-
terson, too, thought the machinery waa
loose, and could be made to pay a
handsome advance, aa well as aid him
iu his candidacy for the senatorship.
He iherefore proposed to purchase the
whole privilege from Moses at a single
scheme, and turn miller himself for
his own grist, and that if any demo
crat or republican who has any meal
to grind, through the legislature.
Another large amount which Moses
received stuck in his memory, because
he had been chea'ed out of a portion
oi it. The republican printing com
pany drew two checks of $1Q,000 each
in hts tavor, and left them with Hardy
Soloman’s bank, Solomans paid Moses
$15,000 of the proceeds, and kept $5,-
000. Moses has been throating to sue
Solomans for the latter ever since he
found it out, but the question, “ What
court would entertain jurisdiction?'*
has delayed the complaint.
Daring his speakership, Moses flood
ed the market with “pay certificates,”
purporting to be for services rendered;
by attaches of the house. Hundreds
f thousands of dollars of these were
afloat Any influential republican
could get one, whether he had ever
been in Columbia or not To do Moses
justice, some of these he alleged to be
lorgeries. Jones, the clerk’s sigua-*
ture, is genuine, but his is uot. From
these eeruiicAl.es he derived a large
amount of money.
The success of the committee with
Moses induced them to follow up the
“I»ay certificate” by calling Moses’s
uccessor as speaker, 8. J. Lie, as the
next witness.
Lee is a light-colored mulatto. He
as formerly a slave. My first remem
brance of him was iu 1807, as a witness
in the esse oi the United Suites against
Crump, Davis & Aruiw, for running
an illicit distillery. He struck me as a
man of great self-possession and
shrewdness for his opportunities. Af
ter reconstruction he was made a mem
ber of the legislature from Aiken
county, anti evinced such tact as a
parliamentarian that he was generally
called top reside in the speaker's ab
sence. This made him speaker when
Moses was elected governor. He soon
began to drive the most spanking
team through Aiken and Augusta,
Georgia. This made General Elliot. wtll ba(i done the work .
