Brown, in answer to a letter which he had
received from a friend enquiring his views

Gov. Browu's errors as a politician, it must
be admitted that he is uot only a sagacious

hesitating to cast their vote agaiusi a Const!

is desigued to outrage, rob, enslave and de-

‘•While I favor every Constitutional relief
which the Legislature can afford to our dis

obliged to say that I do uot think the Oimsli-

The euormous frauds sought to be piac-
tised by tbe mongrel crew of ad venturers in I
Augusta, has at last been brought before I
the court. We are are informed that, upon I
motion yesterday, in the United Slates Cir
cuit Court, before His Honor Judge Erskiae, I
report to tbe court wbat can be done in the
premises.
It was stated to the court that the nuisance
could not be borne any longer. In one case
a bill of Seven Hundred aud Ninety Dollars
was rendered for advertising ten jline* ot
one square each; in another. Ninety Dollars
was demanded for one levy, and others in
proportion.
Now, when the people of our State re
member how kindly Judge Erskine acted
towards them, when huugry mouths around
him panted for the rich pickings made in
other Southern States undei the Coofiscatio
act, and mindful that no grand jury ever
was instructed by him, as iu so many other
Districts, that they must find property con
fiscated, to be released only upon payment
of enormous costs we feel certain that our
