Tlio “State Administration,” or,
as it is morely widely known in financial
circles, the “South Carolina Ring,” of
that State, is getting into uncomfortable
warm water, from the action of its North
ern bondholders, and a lew of its home
officials. Comptroller General Neagle
directed the connty auditors to levy
tax of four mills on the dollar, for the
payment of a year’s interest on u por
tion of the State’s debt—that is
of the funded debt, having abont $6,-
030.U.0 of the conversion bonds unpio-
vided for. These last bonds are very
largely neld in the North, and no satis
factory account has ever been rendered
os to their sale. However, this same
ring lastened them upon tbe State as a
portion of its legal indebtedness, in this
so-called validating act, last spring. By
the action of the Comptroller, who is
particular in specifying the bonds
on which the interest is to be
paid, it is presumed and feared that it is
u practical repudiation of these conver
sion bonds. Hence the spectacle is pre
sented of an administration issuing
bonds, realizing on the sales, thongh
probably nominal proceeds, and a direct
repudiation before their term of office
expires. The Charleston Hews says :
“ The tax-payers will naturally be puz
zled to fathom the meaning of this un
sought, and certainly unexpected, act of
grace on the part of a Bing with whom
selfishness has been, from first to lost, a
controlling principle.”
It is reasonable to suppose that the
tax-payers would not seriously object if
theso questionable bonds are indeed
reully repudiated as it is known that the
riug pocketed the proceeds, and cut
aid era hold the bonds at a nominal pur
chase piice. At last accounts the State
Treasurer had been enjoined trom using
or disbursing any moneys arising from
the tax, und thus far the best moral to
drawn from the affair, may bo, that the
North will soon grow weary itself, of
carpet bug government at the South.

2o the Hon. Alexander H. Stephens at

We, the undersigned, of your fellow-

JG6T* Mr. Stephens’ room, at the Kim

mock, aud many others whom it would
be impossible to mention at this late

Mr. Stephens took him by tho hand
sayizg, “And last of all came Satan.

We learn that a petition from a
large number of citizens was handed Mr.
Stephens last evening, requesting a
speech of him daring his stay in the
General and Personal.
JSF* Reader, as yon draw your com
fortable ohair nearer the blazing fire and
contemplate with satisfaction tho genial
warmth and pleasure it affords, let your
mind wander (and not so far away as you
will perceive) out to those who possess
not these comforts. Think of the cheer
less rooms and desolate health-stones.
Then ask yourself if you can do some
thing to brighten, warm and cheer the
homes of the poor. Corporations are
soulless, and “ the city,” or the “ relief
committee” cannot and do not alleviate
one half the miseries of the deserving
destitute. We have been called on to
write these reflections from what we see
each day. Will not our charitable ladies
form a society similar to the “Charleston
Ladies’ Fuel Society,” said to be an
invaluable organization, purely philan
thropie, raise means by any method
which may suggest itself to their kind
hearts, solicit contributions, etc. Such
an organization would do credit to the
founders, and result in great good to
that class of humanity which Christ says
“shall always be with you.”
